Some are happy, some are sad; here, families are harmonious and warm like spring breezes, while over there, whispers are uttered, faces full of worry:
“Oh, daughter, your father and I really can’t work anymore. The basic daily care fee is two or three hundred yuan. Although the base provides subsidies, we still have to pay a sum of money…”
Your younger brother... still needs to go to school... don't think Mom is heartless for transferring you to a low-income area... don't worry, I've asked around, the low-income area is actually not bad..."

I believe they don't have enough money for surgery, but it's too far-fetched that they can't even afford the sanatorium fees. They're probably just trying to save money to buy evolution potions for their younger sibling. Tsk tsk tsk."
