"What happened to my aunt again?" Fang Yanming was completely baffled.

Fang's mother cried a few times, choking out, "Your aunt...she was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer. Why is God so blind, having to let your aunt get this deadly disease? Oh dear..."

Fang Yanming was also startled. Late-stage lung cancer?

In the late stage, there is almost no need for treatment, but it's not certain. Ye Qingqing can cure it, but Ye Qingqing's fees are exorbitant, and ordinary people can't afford it. Fang Yanming doesn't really want to owe this favor on his behalf.

To be honest, his relationship with his aunt wasn't that great.

He even felt a certain aversion to his aunt.

Over the years, the family has been in turmoil, and almost every incident has something to do with his aunt. His mother is just lazy and selfish, but she is not a bad person at heart. However, his aunt is wicked and always stirring up trouble. She is the most stinking troublemaker in the family, and he and Mao Fangfei have suffered a lot because of her.

Fang Yanming suddenly felt a sense of relief, as if God had finally opened his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and asked in feigned shock, "How come it's suddenly late-stage lung cancer? Wait, Fangfei reminded my aunt last Chinese New Year to go to the hospital for a checkup, but she didn't go?"

It's been almost a year since the Lunar New Year. If his aunt had gone to the hospital for a check-up back then, it might not have progressed to the late stage. Mid-stage cases are treatable, but late-stage cases are probably only treatable by Ye Qingqing.

Fang's mother stammered, "How could your aunt know she would get cancer? She thought there was nothing seriously wrong with her body, that she could eat and sleep well, and that she just had some tightness in her chest, but it wasn't a big deal, so she didn't go to the hospital for a checkup."

"So why did you decide to get checked this time?" Fang Yanming sneered inwardly. He wouldn't admit it until he was faced with the truth. If he had listened to his wife earlier, he wouldn't have ended up in the late stage.

“Your aunt’s health has been getting worse and worse. She even vomited blood a few days ago, so she went to the county hospital and was diagnosed with cancer. Your cousin then took her to the provincial hospital for further examination, but the result was the same. The doctor recommended surgery.”

“Then let’s listen to the doctor. Medicine is so advanced now, many cancer patients have been cured,” Fang Yanming said casually.

He doesn't intend to get involved in this matter; he doesn't have the energy. Most importantly, his aunt's family are ungrateful wretches. When they're down on their luck, they're pitiful, humbly begging for help. But once they're successful, they look down on everyone and forget all the kindness they received in the past.

Fang Yanming remembers these kinds of treacherous acts from his aunt's family more than once or twice. It's only because his parents are so foolish that they still consider his aunt as family.

Seeing that her son refused to speak, Fang's mother had no choice but to say, "Your cousin and uncle want your aunt to have the surgery at your place. The doctors in the provincial capital say that the doctors in Pingjiang are more skilled and have a higher chance of success."

Fang Yanming knew what his cousin and uncle were up to as soon as he heard it. "The provincial hospital is about the same as the hospital here, but it's cheaper. If my aunt comes here for treatment, someone has to take care of her. Food, drinks and accommodation all cost money. The cost of living here is high. Just eating here costs tens of yuan a day."

“If we go to your place, why would I let your cousins ​​spend money on food? Just have your wife cook it and send it to the hospital.” Fang’s mother blurted out.

Fang Yanming immediately flew into a rage and said sternly, "My wife finally got pregnant, and I don't even let her cook at home. But you, you make my wife go to the hospital to bring food every day. If something happens to the baby, who will compensate us?"

Damn it, I knew his aunt's family was no good, and his parents' brains had been stupid for decades!
