"Kidney transplant? What kind of kidney transplant?" Yu Jun suddenly stood up, knocking over the chair he was sitting on with a loud bang.
"Our mother has uremia and needs a kidney transplant."
Yu Qing felt a strange sense of pleasure after she finished speaking.
"Uremia, isn't that nephritis?" That's what Yu Jun said when he received a call from his father.
"If you don't say nephritis, just say uremia and need a kidney transplant, will you be able to come back?" Yu Qing's tone was very harsh, as if no one else was filial except herself.
Yu Jun was silent for a moment, then looked up at his mother. "So, you brought Yin Yin back so she could donate a kidney to you, is that right?"
"What's wrong with letting her donate a kidney? I didn't ask her to exchange her life for another. I gave birth to her and raised her, and all I want is one kidney from her. That's too good for her." The mother on the hospital bed gave off a sinister feeling, whether it was because of her illness or her old age.
"So, you didn't tell any of us siblings—no, you told Yu Qing, you kept it from everyone else—you tricked Yin Yin into coming back just to get her kidney. What right do you have? What right do you have to take Yin Yin's kidney?" Yu Jun was furious at this moment. He even hated his mother a little. Really, can a child who isn't smart be ignored and disregarded?
"What? Why? Isn't Yu Yin my mother's child?" Yu Qing didn't understand why Yu Jun was angry; it wasn't like he was being asked to donate his kidney.
"Aren't you also Mom's child? You've been the most pampered since you were little. She gave you so much maternal love, why don't you donate a kidney to her?" Yu Jun was so angry that he refused to see his mother anymore. Seriously, there's no way to bully someone like that.
"What's wrong? Why are you arguing?" When Mr. Yu came in, he saw his second son, who was sulking, and his eldest daughter, whose eyes were darting away.
"Dad, do you know Mom has uremia? They went to great lengths to trick Yinyin into coming back so they could donate a kidney. I really don't know how Mom could say that. What right does she have? Because of her previous disdain for Yinyin, because of her dislike for Yinyin since she was little..."
Mr. Yu had no idea that his wife had uremia. She kept saying it was nephritis. He was busy taking care of his paralyzed mother, so he didn't ask any questions. Who would have thought she was lying?
"Yu Qing, was this your idea?"
Instead of visiting his wife in the hospital bed, Yu's father confronted his eldest daughter. Since returning to their hometown after being demobilized, Yu Qing and her mother had been arguing one after another.
"Dad, what do you mean by 'my idea'? My mom is sick, and if she doesn't want to say it herself, how could I go around telling everyone? Also, Yu Jun, what do you mean by 'tricking Yu Yin into coming back'? Shouldn't she have come back?"
Yu Qing argued vehemently, refusing to admit that it was out of jealousy for Yu Yin, a fool who, even if he recovered, could not erase the fact that he had once been a fool.
Yu Qing harbored many grievances. She graduated from university and married into one of the most prestigious families. While others struggled to make ends meet, she lived a carefree life. Her husband's family had been a single-son lineage for generations, but she had given birth to two sons, giving her a high social standing.
But when did her life become worse than Yu Yin's? Was it when she got into university, when she started her business, or when she bought the garden villa...? Every time Yu Kang talked about Yu Yin's life, she felt like her heart was being burned by fire, it hurt so much.
She was indignant. Yu Qing was the most favored child in the Yu family, having gotten whatever she wanted since childhood. Yu Yin was like a little fool, unable to even speak properly. Why should she live such a good life? She was not convinced.
This time, her mother was diagnosed with uremia. She asked the doctor and her mother to keep it a secret, and then had her father notify Yu Yin to come back so that Yu Yin could donate a kidney to her mother. In this way, Yu Yin would no longer be perfect; she would be missing a kidney.
Regardless of what Yu Qing was thinking, Yu Jun wouldn't agree to let Yin Yin receive a kidney transplant. If all else failed, he and his brothers would donate, and Yu Qing was the one who most deserved it.
"Dad, Mom, let me make this clear: getting Yinyin a kidney transplant is impossible. Forget about it. Tomorrow, we'll all get tested and see who's a good match. Yinyin, forget about it." After saying this, Yu Jun turned and left.
"You've finished talking. How are you feeling? Is it serious? When will you be discharged?"
Bai Xiaoyu and her twin sons waited for Yu Jun in the hospital lobby. When they arrived, they met Yu Jun's mother, but seeing that she didn't seem to be in the mood to greet them, they left.
"Let's go to my older brother's house first, and we'll talk about it there."
Yu Jun was still very excited, but he tried his best to control himself so as not to affect his wife and children.
Bai Xiaoyu knew Yu Jun was upset; they had lived together for over ten years and knew each other well. "Okay, let's go to my brother's house first. Yinyin is probably already there."
Meanwhile, in the ward, Mr. Yu was at a loss for words with Yu Qing and her mother.
"You guys are really something, hiding the fact that she's sick. What are you trying to do? Wei Hong, of all your children, the one you should least ask for repayment for raising her is Yu Yin. You gave her a miserable childhood. Did you treat her well? Yu Jun protected her as she grew up, acting as both a father and a brother to her. We haven't fulfilled our responsibilities as parents, so don't ask for too much."
And Yu Qing, you can't live your own life properly, you've made a complete mess of things, so don't go back to your parents' house and interfere. Do you have to wear down all the affection between you before you're satisfied?
Mr. Yu came while his mother was sleeping; he still needs to go back and keep an eye on her.
"Qingqing, I did nothing wrong, didn't I?"
Yu's mother herself didn't know what she had done wrong; she just wanted to live a good life.
“Mom, we did nothing wrong. They are the ones who are wrong. Yu Yin is your daughter, and you raised her and sent her to school. How have you wronged her? They are just being dramatic.”
Yu Qing convinced herself that she was right, and that she was doing this so that her mother could get better.
Regardless of how Yu Qing hypnotized herself, Yu Jun and his family of four found their new home according to the address given by their eldest brother.
"Yinyin, your brother is here!" As soon as he entered the door, Yu Jun called out to Yu Yin. He hadn't seen Yinyin for a long time.
"Hey bro, did you miss me?" Yu Yin felt instantly happy when she heard her brother's voice.
"I've been wanting to see you for ages, but something always comes up and I can't make it. Look at you, Yin Yin has gotten even more beautiful!"
At this moment, Yu Jun looked like a proud old father looking at his outstanding daughter.
"Alright, I know you two have a good relationship, that's enough, or the children will laugh at you!" Sister-in-law Yu was like an old witch, trying to break up a family reunion.
"Sister-in-law, you're just jealous. Sister-in-law, it's been a long time!"
Yu Yin greeted her sister-in-law with a smile, and then patted the twins' heads; they were both quite tall.
Yu Yin gave the two children a gift and told them to go play with An An and the others while she, the adults, chatted for a while.
"When do you get off work, brother? Yu Kang hasn't come either. Why is he so busy?" Yu Jun looked around but didn't see Yu Kang.
"Yu Kang is on a business trip. He'll be back the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, he would have arrived earlier. His second sister is here. How could he not show up?" The phone was answered by Yu's sister-in-law, who could hear the silence in Yu Kang's voice.
Looking at Yinyin, who seemed unchanged, Yu Jun thought she was doing well and looked much younger than him. As for his mother and the others, he decided to leave it for later and let them enjoy their time together. He'd put off discussing anything unpleasant for now.
