Chapter 932: Chapter 932 What if it can’t be cured?
The news of Shen Mianmian treating Shen Jianhua quickly spread in the village and soon reached Zhou Family Village, where Zhou Lanfang heard about it from her sister-in-law while dining at home.
Fearing that Shen Jianhua would find out about her secret return and come looking for her, Zhou Lanfang had stealthily come back, never going out during the day. She hadn’t left the house once during the daytime since her return two days ago.
She planned to go to Beijing with Zhou Siyu after the New Year. Although they would be working for someone else in Beijing and the living conditions weren’t great, she was very satisfied with an income of fifty yuan a month.
She thought about how at home she washed dishes and chopsticks without earning money, but doing the same for others, she could make money and not have to worry about anything else. It was much more comfortable.
Originally, she hadn’t planned to return for the New Year, intending to spend it in Beijing with Zhou Siyu, but Siyu insisted on returning with Gu Jianbin for the New Year, so, feeling lonely by herself, she had no choice but to come back too.
Who knew, upon returning home, Zhou Siyu disdained the rural environment and went straight to Gu Jianbin’s place. She definitely couldn’t go back to her own home, so she had to stay with her sister-in-law.
Only two days after returning, she was shocked to hear that Mianmian was treating Jianhua.
"Sister-in-law, are you sure Mianmian is treating Jianhua? This isn’t just some baseless gossip, is it?"
Originally, Shen Jianhua and Shen Mianmian had openly severed their relationship in front of the police and moved their household registrations. How could she possibly be treating him now?
She knew that treating cancer required a significant sum of money, more than some could earn in their entire lives. If the treatment failed, all that money would be wasted. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have abandoned Shen Jianhua and absconded with the money.
"People are saying it with certainty, how could it be false?" Yang Guifen reassured, "Lanfang, if I were you, I’d go back and check on him. If it’s true, then stay by his side and take good care of him. Once he’s treated, he can continue to make money for you to spend. Since Mianmian is willing to treat him, she must have made quite a bit of money and won’t abandon him. Just a little money slipping through Mianmian’s fingers will be enough for both of you."
Zhou Lanfang hesitated, "But what if the treatment doesn’t work?"
"Are you stupid?" Yang Guifen said calculatingly, "If he dies, aren’t all the family’s house foundations and farmland yours? You can live there or sell it if you want, either way, it’s no loss for you!"
Over the years, Shen Jianhua had always treated Zhou Lanfang well, so she did have some feelings for him.
At that moment, influenced by Yang Guifen’s words, she was tempted, but still worried, "I ran off with the money before, and my brother even beat him up. If I go back now, won’t he kill me?"
Yang Guifen said, "He’s in such a state now, needing someone to take care of him. With no children at home, Mianmian surely won’t look after him. He might scold you a bit, but in the end, he’ll have to rely on you."
Zhou Lanfang felt her sister-in-law’s reasoning made a lot of sense. Washing dishes in Beijing was comfortable enough, but with Shen Jianhua unable to work and ill, she had no other choice.
If Shen Jianhua recovered, it would certainly be more comfortable to just collect his money, especially since he used to earn quite a decent amount and gave it all to her.
Thinking this way, she made up her mind, "Sister-in-law, I’ll go to the hospital to see Jianhua tomorrow."
"Why wait for tomorrow?" Yang Guifen didn’t even let Zhou Lanfang finish her meal, starting to clear the dishes, "Go now, the sooner you get there, the sooner you can show your intentions."
