Chapter 107 I'm afraid he's coming with bad intentions
The scream in Duanrao's mind was like a blockbuster bomb, which directly blew away the smile on Aunt Wu's face.
After finally going out to calm down, my fifth cousin returned to the banquet. When he entered the room, he was shocked to hear the bad news. He sprained his ankle and almost fell on the spot.
Ruan Xiuru was also stunned. She no longer cared about her son's troublesome love affair and instead held her sister-in-law's cold hand.
Du Anrao did not notice anything strange about the few people and tried hard to recall the story related to Aunt Five's family.
As the direct uncles of the male and female protagonists, the fifth uncle's family appeared relatively late, but they brought a bombshell as soon as they appeared.
The child of my fifth cousin has leukemia.
Duanrao couldn't hold back anymore when he saw this.
[It is said that Korean dramas have three treasures: car accidents, amnesia, and incurable diseases. This incurable disease includes but is not limited to cancer, leukemia and other terminal illnesses. But in the past, this thing only harmed the male and female protagonists, but now it has become a human-to-human transmission phenomenon, and even children are not spared? ]
The fifth uncle and aunt were also unable to hold back. Like Ruan Xiuru's family, they also had only one son, who was two years younger than Du Hongyun.
It’s just that the son and daughter-in-law grew up together as childhood sweethearts, started a romantic relationship early, and got married early. The daughter they gave birth to is a few months older than the one in Du Hongyun’s family.
Moreover, their son had a minor accident a few years ago, which affected his fertility. If nothing unexpected happens, this will be the only child in their generation.
The old couple like children, and they treat their only granddaughter like a precious treasure.
Now, they suddenly learned that their only child might be suffering from a terminal illness. The old couple were completely devastated and felt like the sky was falling!
If they hadn't held their breath and hoped to have the same good luck as Ruan Xiuru and learn from Duanrao in advance how to rescue the child, they would have probably already given up.
[The fifth uncle's family loved this granddaughter very much. As soon as the diagnosis was confirmed, they mobilized the entire family to do a matching test, but unfortunately none of them matched. Just when everyone was in despair, Du Zhelei's bone marrow matched hers.]
Ruan Xiuru and Fifth Aunt were both stunned. They subconsciously turned to look at each other with mixed feelings.
This dramatic turn of events was a stroke of genius in the development of the plot, but it was a disaster for the fifth uncle's family.
Because of the sequelae of blood transfusion, Du Zhelei could hardly save himself, so how could he donate bone marrow to the little sister of his fifth cousin and save her from her illness?
After finally getting hope, only to fall into despair is undoubtedly more unacceptable than not knowing about this from the beginning.
Even though the fifth uncle's family knew that Du Hongyun was not to blame, they still felt uncomfortable, especially in the following years. Whenever their granddaughter was weak and had a high fever and was dying, they would always wonder if everything would have been different if Du Zhelei had not been in trouble and if their youngest daughter could have had a bone marrow transplant early on.
Although after that, with the unremitting efforts of everyone, a bone marrow matching the child's was found and her life was saved, the damage caused by long-term chemotherapy was ultimately irreversible.
Aunt Wu was so shocked that she almost burst into tears on the spot.
When she thought that her little granddaughter, who had said goodbye to her in a baby voice and kissed her on the cheek and asked her to go home early, might have to suffer from illness soon after this, she felt extremely heartbroken.
She is so young and weak, but she has to undergo chemotherapy and surgery that even adults are afraid of. How can she endure it!
[Tsk tsk tsk, big cousin, look at what you did, it really hurt people! No wonder you were tripped up by the villain later. Second cousin didn't even bother to pay attention to you. He was quite restrained by not taking advantage of you. ]
Aunt Fifth now understood Ruan Xiuru's mood and her fists suddenly hardened.
I wish I could run to Du Hongyun right now and give him a mixed doubles match so that he can experience his complete childhood again.
[Fortunately, my eldest cousin didn't give the child a blood transfusion this time. If they could really be matched, and the physical conditions of the two children were suitable, and both parents agreed, the little girl would have suffered less.]
Aunt Wu's eyes lit up slightly. This was truly a blessing in disguise, but...
Aunt Fifth turned to look at Ruan Xiuru with mixed feelings, her eyes full of anxiety and pleading.
Ruan Xiuru naturally knew what she was worried about. She sighed and clenched her hand to comfort her.
[But it's absurd. It's okay that our family is full of cannon fodder, but why is my eldest cousin so miserable even though he has become the male protagonist? Does the world have any ill will towards people with the surname Du? Or is it just our family that has ill will? ]
The Du family members who were watching nodded in agreement, but at the same time they were also worried, fearing that they would be the next to be unlucky!
[And I'm not saying anything, Aunt Fourth and Aunt Fifth, don't you two really plan to find time to visit your ancestral graves? It's fine if one child got into trouble, but two children got into trouble in a row. It doesn't seem like a coincidence, does it? ]
The two aunts and the fifth cousin who was standing on the verge of collapse not far away suddenly felt as if something had dawned on them, and subconsciously turned to look at each other.
Yeah, why didn’t they think of that?
The reason why people attach importance to ancestral tombs is, firstly, because of the emotional sustenance and understanding of where they came from in this world, and the desire to return to their roots; secondly, they hope that the souls of their ancestors are still there to take care of their descendants and bless future generations.
Now both of their only children are in trouble. Could it really be a problem with the ancestral grave?
The few of them were in mixed emotions when a somewhat disappointing voice suddenly came from behind them: "A large group of people gathered here, what are they doing?"
Upon hearing this voice, many people's faces changed, especially the people from the Du family not far away.
"Why did you invite him here as well?" Du Hexuan looked at Du's father and Du's mother with a hint of blame, obviously very disgusted with the appearance of this man.
"I invited their neighbor's second uncle, but it's not good to not ask anything, and I thought he wouldn't come..."
But is it really possible that this person won't come? In the end, Father Du himself felt guilty.
The person who spoke was a distant relative of the Du family, who was already five generations away from the Du family.
There isn't any real hatred between the two families. It's purely about money.
Du's father, who is also the grandfather of Du Anrao and others, had contact with Du Jizu's father. The two were of similar age and lived close to each other, so they were often compared when they were young.
One of them is tall, handsome and comes from a wealthy family, while the other is short, fat and poor. They are a cruel negative control group.
Therefore, it is different from the situation where Du's mother and Ruan Xiuru were competing secretly but actually had no ill will towards each other.
Du Jizu's father grew up under the shadow of Grandpa Du's halo of excellence, and he hated Grandpa Du to the core, and even his son hated Du's father.
"I heard that he made a lot of money in the past two years because of his business boom. His behavior became more high-profile and absurd. I'm afraid he showed up today with bad intentions."
