"Mom, what on earth do you want?" As soon as Yan Jinchang received the telegram from his elder brother, he immediately rushed to the boss’s home, just in time to see his mom losing control of her emotions and smashing the braised meat shop run by his younger sister’s mother-in-law!
He dared not say anything more, only hurriedly apologized, "Sorry, I’ll come back to apologize later," and then promptly pulled his mom away.
He didn’t dare take her back to the military base because he knew that his younger sister was returning to the base today!
"What do I want? All I want is to save Shishi! Changchang, Shishi had another attack! He needs her blood, needs her bone marrow!"
At this moment, Yan Jinsi was moved into the intensive care unit due to a bacterial infection, looking as fragile as a sheet of white paper. The doctor made it clear that without a suitable bone marrow transplant, he only had one month to live.
He has done his utmost, only managing to keep Shishi alive for one month!
One month... Zhang Shan Ni is less than seven months pregnant, right? But even after she gives birth, it’s not possible to immediately extract her bone marrow. Without three to five months to recover, how could she undergo a bone marrow extraction for Shishi?
It’s too long, she can’t wait.
"Mom, no matter how serious my younger brother’s illness is, my younger sister can’t possibly donate blood or bone marrow right now. Why can’t you think about her for once? The baby in her belly is already six months old! It’s not merely one or two months, it has already taken shape, and even interacts with Shanni!"
Yan Jinchang shook his mom’s body and shouted at her:
"Do you care about my younger brother’s feelings just like Shanni cares about the feelings of the baby in her womb? Why are you always so selfish, only thinking about yourself?"
"Chang... Changchang, are you blaming me?" Qi Chunlan didn’t hear anything, but she clearly heard the last sentence her second son shouted at her:
"Are you also blaming me for not taking care of my children properly? Or are you, like your dad, blaming me for going back to my parents’ home to pay respects when I was more than eight months pregnant?"
"Mom... I’m not blaming you," Yan Jinchang shook his head.
"No, you are blaming me! But that was my dying mother, I couldn’t take care of her and show her filial piety when she was ill, and now that she has passed, I had to go back to see her one last time, to send her off..."
When Yan Jinchang heard his mom mention this, anger surged in his heart, but eventually, he looked at his beloved mom and coldly sneered:
"Heh, Mom, you always take things for granted! Why don’t you ask if your elder brother and Eldest Aunt allowed you to return back then? You just left with your eight-month pregnant belly, leaving me and my elder brother behind without looking back!
Do you know Dad got injured in the unit because of your actions?
Do you know Grandpa was at the front when you left him a message?
You disregard everything, don’t listen to persuasion, and now you have let this happen, yet you expect your daughter, who you have never taken care of for a single day, to pay the price. Where in the world is there such a cheap deal?!
Mom, I beg of you, please come to your senses and stop causing a scene! If my younger brother knew how you were treating Shanni, he wouldn’t want to live another day!"
Qi Chunlan was stunned by her son’s scolding, tears streaming down as she sobbed, "Sob... you still say you don’t blame me..."
Yan Jinchang clenched his lips, staring at Qi Chunlan who had sunk back into self-pity, and he really wanted to shout: He’s not blaming her, he resents her!
Back then, she was already a woman in her twenties, yet how could she have been so foolish to not understand that the living are more important than the dead?
She knew about her pregnancy with the rare blood type when the baby was less than three months old! And she actually dared to return to her hometown alone with an eight-month pregnant belly!
In that era, it was just the 1950s, a small error could result in three deaths!
Moreover, right before Grandma’s death, she specifically asked her to go back only after giving birth and to properly keep a seven-day vigil for her!
