After this illness, Aunt Feng's condition deteriorated rapidly and it was almost impossible to recover.
Because there was no point in treating her, and the Xiehe Hospital was short of beds and could no longer accept patients, Aunt Feng was eventually transferred to a district hospital near the cadre compound for treatment.
It's called treatment, but in reality it's just injecting painkillers into the body to minimize pain.
Because of the shortage of medicine resources these days, even painkillers cannot be freely administered. The number that can be prescribed every day is limited, which can only be said to be better than nothing.
Aunt Feng's condition is already very serious. Even though she is taking painkillers, she is still tortured by the pain every day, groaning in pain and unable to sleep at night.
In September, Yunqiao started school.
After school started, although she applied for day study and lived at home, she had no free time due to the heavy workload. She could only go to the hospital to visit Aunt Feng every weekend.
Every time Yun Qiao went to the hospital to visit Aunt Feng, he would find that she had lost a lot of weight compared to the previous week.
In just three months, Aunt Feng's once plump figure had shrunk to a state of being skin and bones. Her eye sockets were deeply sunken, her skin was sallow and dull, her eyes were lifeless, and she looked more and more dead.
Every time Yun Qiao saw Aunt Feng like this, he couldn't help crying.
She knew Aunt Feng didn't have much time left, so she tried her best to make time every weekend to visit her in the hospital, rain or shine.
Aunt Feng didn't make it to the end of the year and she died before winter came.
Because it was not a holiday, Yun Qiao was in school and was unable to see Aunt Feng for the last time.
When she returned home after class, Aunt Feng had passed away.
Feng Juan was heartbroken, but she managed to make arrangements for Aunt Feng's funeral with all her might.
Aunt Feng divorced early and has no children. Her only biological brother also passed away in the first half of this year. She still has several nephews and nieces in her hometown. Although they have hardly had any contact in recent years and their relationship is average, they are still family after all. When someone passes away, you always have to write to them to say hello and announce the death.
Feng Juan sent a telegram to her hometown, and received a call from her hometown the next day.
The person who called was Feng Juan's sister-in-law, but after a few words, it was replaced by Aunt Feng's sister-in-law.
Aunt Feng's sister-in-law is also in her teens this year and speaks very loudly. After she answered the phone, she expressed her sadness about Aunt Feng's death, saying that both her sister and brother had bad luck, one at the beginning of the year and the other at the end of the year, and they died of illness in the same year.
She cried a few times and shed a few tears. Feng Juan heard that her tone was sincere and comforted her. Unexpectedly, she then thought about the things left by Aunt Feng.
She first said that her family was in financial difficulty, her children were already old enough to support themselves, and she really couldn't spare any money to buy tickets to Beijing, so she was afraid she wouldn't be able to attend the funeral.
Feng Juan said it didn't matter, because she had never thought that anyone would come from her hometown, so she was not surprised.
Aunt Feng's sister-in-law's next words really made Feng Juan angry.
She said: Aunt Feng has worked as a nanny in your Qin family for thirty years and should have saved a lot of money. Aunt Feng has no children, so these savings should be inherited by her nephew, so she hopes Feng Juan can send the money back to her hometown as soon as possible, otherwise she will have to bring her children to Beijing to claim it.
Feng Juan was so angry that she trembled all over when she heard this.
He did not attend the funeral because his family was in financial difficulty and he did not have enough money to buy a train ticket to Beijing.
Can you come when you ask for money now?
Why don’t you say you don’t have money to buy a train ticket to Beijing?
Feng Juan took a deep breath and spoke into the microphone, "Aunt Feng has no children. If she dies, any inheritance should indeed be inherited by her other relatives. But she had lung cancer, and it took four months from the time it was discovered to her death. During those four months, she was hospitalized for three. Treatment in hospitals in Beijing is very expensive. Not only did she use up all her savings on her treatment, but my family also put in a lot of money..."
"What do you mean?" Before Feng Juan could finish her words, Aunt Feng's sister-in-law started yelling on the phone, questioning whether Feng Juan wanted to keep the money left by Aunt Feng for herself, so she made up a lie and lied to her that the treatment was completed?
Feng Juan's forehead pounded with anger, and she said coldly, "It's over, it's over. I didn't ask you for money for Aunt Feng's treatment, and I've already done my best. How dare you ask me for money?"
"Do you and your family have a good relationship with Aunt Feng? They've been cold and distant for decades, with almost no contact. Apart from that superficial blood relationship, what else is there?"
"Still want to ask me for money?"
