Reborn in the Seventies: Pampered Wife, Owning some Farmland-Chapter 1416 - 1417: The Late Stage
Yun Hai had just seen his parents both fainting before his eyes, only to be resuscitated with difficulty.
He felt sorry for his parents; thankfully nothing worse happened.
Yun Men took over the conversation, "Not long after Niuniu gave birth, Big Brother was diagnosed with cancer." That was the stark reality.
Yun Hai’s parents didn’t have a clear understanding of the cancer situation.
"Little Huzi, explain to me, this cancer."
Yun Mingrui glanced at the people in the sickroom and then began to explain.
"Cancer can be categorized into early, intermediate, and late stages."
Yun Hai’s mother immediately asked, "Then which stage does your great-uncle fall into?"
Yun Mingrui’s gaze settled on Yun Hai’s mother and finally rested on Yun Mingliang’s face, "Late-stage." But it was actually intermediate-stage.
Both parents of Yun Hai shook involuntarily.
Yun Hai’s father stuttered as he spoke, "Then.. is treatment... still useful?"
Were they destined to witness the anguish of parents burying their child?
"If treated, he could live a few more years; without treatment, he could die at any moment." Yun Mingrui’s gaze shifted from Yun Mingliang and his brother to their parents,
who were being led toward Yun Hai step by step.
"Eldest, what do you think?" Yun Hai’s mother, who appeared much older and thinner, looked at Yun Hai with heartache.
They might not have known about cancer before, but now they understood that it meant their eldest son probably didn’t have much longer to live. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Dad, Mom, I’m okay. Life and death are decreed by fate."
Yun Hai’s mother suddenly walked towards Yun Hao, "Third son, can you lend some money for your big brother to have surgery? It could extend his life by a few years."
Yun Hao took his mother’s hand, "Mom, it’s not that I won’t lend the money, but Big Brother has already decided against treatment, and he doesn’t want Xiaoliang and the others to bear the burden of debt with such hardship."
Seeing those two nephews, Yun Hao still felt a surge of anger to this day.
"Are you just going to watch your big brother pass away?"
Although Yun Hai’s father didn’t speak, the fact of his eldest son having cancer turned his once white hair suddenly stooped.
"Mom, Big Brother’s choice not to seek treatment is also for Xiaoliang and the others, after all, borrowed money needs to be repaid, and no one’s money comes without effort." Yun Shuang was very disappointed in her two nephews from Big Brother’s family.
Just now, when the parents fainted, those two were just sitting there, without coming over to check on them.
Yun Hai’s father looked towards his children.
He knew that over the years, it had been the third son taking care of them.
"Elder sister..."
Yun Men saw the atmosphere becoming somewhat oppressive.
She turned to her parents.
"Parents, we siblings were planning on sharing the costs, but do you know how Big Brother came to Kyoto? Was it me and Elder Sister who brought Big Brother here? We’ve covered all medical expenses, but Xiaoliang and his siblings didn’t come to take care of him at all. I want to ask, isn’t Big Brother their father? If it wasn’t for Big Brother sending them to school, even after they got jobs, when it came to buying houses, it wasn’t them who borrowed money, but Big Brother borrowing from me. Even so, Big Brother didn’t idle around; under the blazing sun, he worked alongside construction workers on site. They took for granted everything Big Brother did for them, never considering that if not for Big Brother, how could they possibly be working in state-owned enterprises rather than tilling three parts of an acre back home."
Because Yun Men was closest to Yun Hai, she had observed all this over the years and even murmured about it with her sister-in-law occasionally. But what could that change? Could she prevent Big Brother from working?
Owed money always has to be repaid, and there was no way Big Brother could avoid working off the debt.
