throbbing marriage

Chapter 14

My aunt faked a smile: "What is it to grab or not? What nonsense you are talking about is so ugly. Our family has also been very difficult in the past two years. Your uncle just cut his salary so badly. The family bought a house with a lot of money and owed a lot of money to relatives and friends." Debt, your brother has good grades, and if he wants to study abroad, it will cost a lot of money."

Ji Shuyun looked at her grandma hesitantly: "Mom has taken care of Wan Wan for so many years, and I hope to continue living with Mom to take care of her for the elderly. However, I respect Mom's wishes. If Mom wants to move to your sister-in-law, then I will Just go back to live with me, I have no objection."

Grandma didn't speak, and the watery light flickered in those cloudy eyes, Ji Wan tightly held her hands, those hands were rough and cold, trembling slightly all the time.

"Studying abroad is a bottomless pit. Four years of tuition plus living expenses will cost about one million yuan," she asked coldly, "Auntie, are you planning to sell grandma's house?"

"Why is your child so full of water?" the aunt said sharply, "I took your grandma to enjoy the blessings, just talking about the house by the way! It's better than letting your grandma stay at home alone and sprain her feet! "

Ji Wan ignored her: "Grandma, you are used to living in your own house, you know the neighbors right and left, and everything is taken care of, I don't think you should go."

"Grandma is afraid of dragging you down..." Grandma muttered, her eyes moved back and forth between the daughter-in-law and daughter, she hesitated, "Grandma is getting old and useless..."

"It's very useful. When you're at home, I eat a hundred times more delicious food." Ji Wan leaned on his grandma, only to find that the tall grandma was already half a head shorter than her, "Grandma, Take your house and your money by yourself, spend it how you want, give it to whoever you want, and leave the rest to me, and I will support you for the rest of your life."

The aunt jumped up and said sharply: "You sound nice, but you are thinking about the little pension in your grandma's pocket. Let me tell you, don't try to lose everything. Your grandma's legal heir is not you." This granddaughter, speaking of your grandfather’s death, we have the right to inherit his property, and we already have a share of the house, so we go to the lawsuit—"

"Sister-in-law!" Ji Shuyun was furious, "Don't be so aggressive, even if my mother has subsidized me a few dollars in the past two years, my parents gave you the down payment when I bought a house!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she gasped and pinched her abdomen in pain. Ji Wan panicked: "Mom, how are you doing? I'll call the doctor..."

Ji Shuyun took her hand and shook her head vigorously.

Grandma was also in a hurry: "Xiao Ling, don't talk about it anymore, your sister is already like this, wait until this period is over before you decide whether to move or not."

My aunt wanted to talk with an angry look on her face, but the door was pushed open, and the doctor came in, and issued a eviction order with a serious face: "What is this all about? No noise is allowed in the hospital, just leave two caretakers, and the others hurry up." Walk."

The doctor's surname was Zhou, in his forties, Ji Shuyun took over as the attending doctor after he moved into the ward. Ji Wan looked at his badge and searched online, and found that he was a well-known gynecologist in China.

Doctor Zhou's face was serious, and he handed several pathology reports to Ji Wan: "Your mother's final results have not yet come out, but the situation is not optimistic. It is very likely that the breast cancer has recurred, and the cancer cells have spread to the liver."

Ji Wan only felt a "buzz" in his head, supported the desk, looked at him blankly, and asked hoarsely after a while: "Is there a mistake? My mother is usually in good health."

"This is not a joke disease, of course we will review it carefully," Dr. Zhou said very seriously, "But you have to be mentally prepared. If you are diagnosed, think about how to tell your mother. We, both doctors and patients, must be prepared first. "

Ji Wan didn't know how she got out of the office, she couldn't go to the ward, she just instinctively went all the way down the stairs from the side safety passage, walked to the small garden outside the hospital, and finally couldn't help it anymore, leaning on the tree trunk He squatted down and hugged his head.

Breast cancer recurrence and metastasis, the mortality rate is almost 80.00%.

Ji Shuyun was only in her early fifties, and she had her right breast removed in her sophomore year. Back then, she tried her best to hire the best doctor and the best medicine for Ji Shuyun, and survived the five-year relapse period in fear. I thought that from now on, the shadow of the serious illness has gone away.She also fantasizes that one day she will finally be proud of Ji Shuyun, let those culprits cry and repent in front of her mother, and from then on smash the shackles that have bound the mother and daughter for more than 20 years, and the family lives happily.

But now, everything is in vain, the mother who refused to give up on her no matter how hard it was, the mother who has been dependent on each other for more than 20 years, may leave her with lifelong regret and resentment, as long as you think of this One in ten thousand possibility, she felt like a knife piercing her heart.

Why is this world so unfair? Good people always get no rewards, but bad people can enjoy a happy life with peace of mind.

Someone was calling her name anxiously, and her body was pulled up forcefully.

Ji Wan staggered a step, looked around in a daze, and it took a while to focus on the person in front of him.

"What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?" He Yuhan looked at her anxiously.

"It's nothing, I got dizzy for a while," Ji Wan squeezed out a smile, "It's such a coincidence, why did you come to the hospital too?"

"Look at a friend," He Yuhan said succinctly, "Let's go, eat something and take a break."

Ji Wan shook her head, but He Yuhan couldn't help but dragged her and walked out: "Okay, don't be stubborn, you still owe me a meal, just pay it off now."

He Yuhan drove a heavy SUV, and the car drove on the road smoothly, almost silently.He turned on the stereo casually, soothing music flowed in the car, and the dull atmosphere eased a little.

"After all, we are ex-lovers. Why do you seem to regard me as an enemy? I haven't done anything to apologize to you, have I?" He smiled self-deprecatingly.

Ji Wan looked into the distance indifferently: "Just think of me as a narrow-minded and paranoid woman who doesn't know what's good or what's wrong."

He Yuhan snorted coldly, not only being narrow-minded and paranoid, ignorant of good and evil, but also heartless, chaotic and abandoning at the end.His face was very gloomy: "Is your mother sick?"

"It's none of your business, I'll take care of it myself." Ji Wan straightened his back stiffly, raised his chin slightly, pursed his thin lips tightly, with the same stubborn and proud expression as before.

Two contradictory feelings of pity and anger collided in his chest, He Yuhan involuntarily stepped up the accelerator, and after a while he squeezed out a sentence: "When we broke up that year, why didn't you tell me that your mother had breast cancer?" ?”

"You... how do you know?" Ji Wan turned around suddenly, looked at him in astonishment, and then seemed to think of something, and quickly said, "It will be cured soon, it's not a big deal."

"Besides this matter, do you have other things to hide from me?" He Yuhan's voice was cold. "I hate the feeling of being kept in the dark the most."

Ji Wan chuckled lightly: "Thanks to you still thinking about what happened so many years ago, you can't be reconciled to what happened back then and want to relive old dreams with me, right? I'm sorry, I don't have that idea."

His forehead twitched twice, He Yuhan resisted the urge to strangle this woman, and regained his composure: "I know you don't want to now, but no one can say for sure about the things in this world. When you think about it, tell me I."

"Thank you, your level of thinking is really high," Ji Wan said mockingly, "I will definitely cherish your spare tire."

As soon as the words came out, even she herself felt that she was too mean, but He Yuhan didn't seem to hear it, and looked ahead calmly, without even shaking the hand holding the steering wheel.

The carriage became quiet again, and there was a folk singer singing on the radio, with a slight sadness, monotonous and persistent.

Ji Wan subconsciously looked at He Yuhan's chiseled profile, and became inexplicably dazed.

The boy who used to play the guitar well was as good as the singers on the radio.In the quiet alley, the boy would occasionally sit on the wall, plucking the strings. The boy's eyelashes were thick and long, and he would occasionally raise his eyes to tease her with his eyes.The softness and sweetness in my heart are like the tender shoots that just sprouted in spring, growing wildly uncontrollably.

"Why didn't you play it?"

"You sing and I play."

"What do you like to hear?"

"I like everything you sing."

The clear guitar sound is accompanied by the murmured singing, and even the hot summer wind seems to bring a bit of coolness. The earthen walls made of red bricks, the blue sky, and the gorgeous sunset gradually fade into a black-and-white film. , and gradually faded away in my mind.

As soon as the music changed, the clear folk songs went away, replaced by a rap song.

The boy's face suddenly disappeared, and from an inch away, she could clearly see He Yuhan's eyelashes drooping, casting a light shadow on his eyelids.

"You... what are you doing?" Ji Wan's heart beat violently.

"What do you think I'm going to do?" The corner of He Yuhan's mouth looked like a smile, and with a "click", her seat belt was released, and Ji Wan realized that the car had stopped, "Have some porridge, I know you don't have much appetite, Take some for Aunt Ji, for a change."

This porridge shop called "Daohuaxiang" is doing well. He Yuhan said hello to the proprietress at the door, and took Ji Wan to the private seat inside. OK

The unhappiness in the car just now seemed to have no effect on He Yuhan. He calmly ordered a pot of local chicken porridge, two or three snacks, and specially explained: "The porridge here is all freshly cooked in sand pots. It will take some time. Eat some side dishes first to fill your belly."

The taste of the few snacks was good, but Ji Wan was in a mess and took a few bites absent-mindedly. Sitting with He Yuhan, she always tensed up subconsciously.

He Yuhan didn't eat, but leaned comfortably on the sofa with his arms outstretched, but his eyes were fixed on Ji Wan. Those eyes reminded Ji Wan of a wolf on the snow.

Ji Wan has calmed down from the abnormal state just now, this is not someone she can offend.She considered for a moment and said: "He Yuhan, I haven't been in a good state recently, and I didn't mean to speak ill of you on purpose. I was the one who was sorry for you before, but now that everyone is an adult, there is no need to hold on to this Don’t let the matter of sesame seeds and rotten millet go, what do you think?”

He Yuhan smiled: "What if I say I want to grab it?"

Ji Wan was amused: "Then what exactly do you want me to do? If you fall in love with you again and dump you once, you will be relieved? You are not such a naive person, are you?"

He Yuhan was noncommittal, just in time, when the porridge came, he filled a bowl for Ji Wan with his own hands, thoughtfully turned the spoon twice to dissipate the heat, and picked out the shredded ginger from it, then handed the porridge to Ji Wan : "Be careful it's hot."

Staring at Jiang Si by his hand for a moment, Ji Wan's nose was a little sore, she lost her appetite even more, took a few sips and put down the spoon.

"Eat more, this is easy to get hungry," He Yuhan frowned and said, "Don't worry about your mother, isn't this a diagnosis yet? Even if it is diagnosed, there are many ways to treat it. collapsed."

Ji Wan was stunned for a while: "You...how do you even know this?"

"I met Dr. Zhou when I was visiting a friend. He is one of my family doctors." He Yuhan said casually.

Ji Wan straightened his back, his eyes were cold, and his face was as cold as water: "He Yuhan, I don't understand what kind of mentality you have. This is my privacy. Is it too much for you to spy on me privately?"

The surrounding air seemed to freeze suddenly.

The smile at the corner of He Yuhan's mouth gradually disappeared, and a chill hit his eyes, and a gloomy and indifferent atmosphere instantly enveloped the two of them, even the steaming porridge seemed to be frozen.

After a long time, he leaned slightly towards Ji Wan, and suddenly raised his hand, his fingertips lightly brushed over the tip of her nose.

"It's stained with porridge." Before Ji Wan could scold him angrily, he said lightly, "Also, you have to get used to it. From now on, I will know about you until you become mine."
