"If it's certain that your mother's illness can be cured, I'd be willing to spend even more than ten yuan and eight 'mao' (0.08 yuan). After all, people are more important than money. What I'm afraid of is spending money but not getting cured; wouldn't that be a waste?"
Yun Wansheng didn't speak, but nodded vigorously to the side.
He's not married yet. Although his mother is very good to him, no matter how good his mother is, it's not as good as a wife. His mother can't be with him forever; he still needs a wife.
If all the money in the family is wasted on medical treatment, how will he ever get married?
However, although he thought this way, he couldn't say it out loud.
My mom's still here. What if I said something like that, and she remembers how I never answered her calls when she was home? What if she doesn't treat me well anymore?
So, seeing that Yun Youtian had spoken, he quickly nodded in agreement.
Wang Shufang's expression was rather unpleasant.
On one hand, she was also distressed about the money. But on the other hand, she wanted to get treatment even more. Leaving aside the excruciating pain she had just experienced—the pain so intense she felt like dying—her head still ached, though not as badly as before; she could bear it. She didn't want to suffer like that again, feeling like she was living a life worse than death. So, the more conflicted she became, the more she hoped to get better.
However, since Yun Youtian had already spoken, she couldn't say she wanted treatment anymore; that wouldn't be in line with her usual behavior in front of him. So, she subconsciously looked at Yun Wansheng, hoping that her youngest son, whom she had doted on since childhood, would show her some compassion and speak up for her. As long as both sons were on her side, her husband would still pay for her treatment, no matter how reluctant he was to spend the money.
To her surprise, when she turned her head, she saw Yun Wansheng nodding, and a feeling of desolation immediately welled up in her heart. She felt that she had loved this son for nothing.
Of course, this is also because people are particularly vulnerable and prone to overthinking when they are sick. If it were any other time, she might have already started making excuses for Yun Wansheng.
It has to be said that Yun Wansheng still has a strong will to survive. He knows that the reason he is spoiled by his parents at home is mainly because his mother favors him, and his father is more influenced by his mother's "pillow talk".
So, seeing Wang Shufang's face change color, Yun Wansheng immediately spoke up: "Dad, what you said makes a lot of sense. It's not just you; Mom definitely thinks the same way. After all, it's a fact. But we can't give up on getting Mom treatment just because it's true..."
Yun Youtian said somewhat awkwardly, "It's not that I'm giving up. I just think that since we're going to try it anyway, we might as well use a cheaper 'medicine'. If the cheaper 'medicine' works, then we won't have to waste so much money."
Yun Wansheng spoke only to "save" his position in Wang Shufang's heart, so he did not immediately "persuade" or "refute" Yun Youtian. Instead, he pretended to be thinking, as if he was considering how to "refute" Yun Youtian's words.
Yun Fusheng, however, couldn't hold back any longer and said directly, "Dad, I know you're worried about money. How about this, no matter how much money my mom spends on medical treatment, consider it a loan from me. I'll definitely pay you back when I have the money in the future."
