Chapter 540 Volunteer Quota
Although both his uncle Shi Yougang and his grandfather said that they wanted to hide it from the family and not let others know that he had cancer.
But some things cannot be hidden.
The afternoon after Zhuang Buyuan successfully defeated his uncle Sanguan, he received a video call from Zhuang's mother.
"What's going on with your grandpa's illness?"
Zhuang Ma's eyes were a little red and swollen, obviously she had cried.
"Grandpa, he's fine..." Zhuang Buyuan hesitated.
"Don't lie to me. I know your grandpa has cancer. I just want to know how long he has left..."
"Mom, it's not to that extent. Don't worry, grandpa will be fine." Zhuang Buyuan said, "The hospital is researching a new treatment that will definitely cure grandpa."
"What new treatment? It was said on TV that those so-called new treatments are all lies. They are used to defraud people. They will defraud you of all your money and kill you..." Zhuang's mother was still very vigilant.
"I invested in researching this therapy, not to cheat money. Besides, it's not that easy to defraud me of all my money." Zhuang Buyuan said.
"Look at you, you're so jealous, you made a little money and you got rich!" Zhuang's mother scolded angrily, "And your father, he went wild outside, and he took advantage of the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard. How dare you do such a big thing? Hiding it from me..."
"Yes, my dad is really too much!" Zhuang Buyuan has never stood on the same front as his dad. Long live my mother, everything she said is right.
But even though he was so unprincipled, he couldn't escape Zhuang's mother's scolding.
"And you! You heartless person! How could you hide it from me? If something... something unexpected happens, if... if..."
As Zhuang Ma talked, she couldn't continue, her eyes became red again, and she started sobbing and wiping tears.
What if my grandpa suddenly becomes seriously ill and dies, and we can’t even see him for the last time?
No matter how contradictory he is, he is her father after all.
"Your second uncle and I will take your grandma to Xucheng right now, and you and your dad will pick us up..." Zhuang's mother said.
"Uh, okay..." Zhuang Buyuan said, "But I have something to report..."
Zhuang Buyuan told him and his father how they were pretending to be poor. Zhuang's mother suddenly became furious and said, "How long has it been and you are still acting like this!"
"We didn't know the situation was so serious at the time... But don't worry, Mom, my grandpa is really fine." Zhuang Buyuan said, "And it's not a good thing for so many people to come to Xu City. Grandpa needs to rest for his illness. I If those uncles get together, haha, they can put together some great dramas..."
Zhuang Ma was also speechless for a moment.
Think about it when I was young, my family was also a family of brothers, friends and brothers.
Ever since they started having families, they seemed to have started to become estranged from each other and started to fight in various ways.
"Hey, don't worry about it for now. Your grandma can't fly. Your second uncle said that you can take the high-speed rail to get there. I'll go get ready right now and leave in the evening."
Zhuang Buyuan hurried to discuss with Zhuang's father. Both of them were very distressed and sighed: "Well, there is no other way. Let's buy another car, this time a seven-seater."
"And after your mother comes, she will definitely have to deal with their family all day long. If your mother goes alone, I will definitely be worried. I have to accompany her to prevent her from being bullied..."
Father Zhuang is worried.
Whether it is his father-in-law or his elder brother-in-law, he is always respectful and insensitive. The dissatisfaction that has lasted for decades cannot be cleared up in a few words overnight.
"How about when I meet your second uncle, I'll slap them first? To steal the others first?" Dad Zhuang thought about the two slaps he gave to his first uncle and it had a good effect, so he wanted to deal with it according to the law.
"If you're not afraid that my mother will tear you apart, just go ahead and beat her up." Zhuang Buyuan said, and dad, your honest persona is going to collapse, okay?
The father and son squatted on the ground with sad faces and sighed.
In front of Mother Zhuang, she had to give her family face no matter what. When Mother Zhuang came, it was like giving a debuff to the father and son, greatly weakening their combat effectiveness.
When the two of them were worried, Zhuang Buyuan's cell phone rang again.
It’s still Zhuang’s mother’s phone number.
"Lao Zhuang, Xiao Yuan, I may not be able to go to Xucheng." Zhuang's mother looked very tired.
"What's wrong?" Both of them were startled.
"My mother fainted just now. I'm in the hospital now..." Zhuang's eyes became even redder. "My mother has been in poor health. This time she was anxious and afraid that she might faint. The doctor said it's best to observe her in the hospital. I stayed at home to take care of her for a few days..."
"Should I go back to accompany you?" Dad Zhuang said quickly.
"Is it serious? Dad and I will go back and take a look?" Hearing that grandma also fell ill, Zhuang Buyuan was also very worried. After all, this woman always treated Zhuang Buyuan equally, and even sometimes deliberately favored him.
"No, I still have my eldest sister to help here, but your grandpa's side is more important..."
"Mom, please let grandma relax. I guarantee that grandpa's illness can be cured." Zhuang Buyuan said.
"Okay..." Zhuang Ma said this, but she was worried after all. She didn't want to say more, and said: "Your second uncle has gone to Xucheng by himself, you go to pick him up... Forget it, pick him up or not. "
After hanging up the phone, Zhuang Buyuan looked at his father.
Do you want to pick it up or not? Of course I didn't answer.
"I'll continue to hide. I'll leave it to you at the hospital." Dad Zhuang quickly stepped out.
Zhuang Buyuan has also been very busy recently. The role of "expert consultant" given to him by Zhou Xiang'an is actually related to major issues in the development of the manor. Zhuang Buyuan has to take it seriously. He goes to Zhou Xiang'an's office almost every day, during which he also talks with everyone. I met my uncle several times.
Seeing his uncle's respectful and frightened expression, Zhuang Buyuan felt ridiculous himself.
He was afraid that his uncle would "come to his senses" and almost always remained aloof when in front of him.
Sometimes, Zhuang Buyuan felt that his uncle was insane. Or is there a cognitive impairment?
However, Zhuang Buyuan has arranged his uncle's workload well, so he has not seen his uncle in the hospital recently.
But in the hospital, after all, there were still many things that needed to be decided by Zhuang Buyuan. On this day, after Zhuang Buyuan called to confirm that his uncle was in the office, he picked up some of the manor's output, and then picked up the driver who went to the hospital to deliver the goods. Brother's car went to the hospital.
When I arrived at the hospital, I saw my grandpa chatting with a little girl in the corridor.
The little girl was eight or nine years old. She was very thin and wearing a hospital gown. She was obviously a patient here.
Seeing that the village was not far away, the grandfather touched the little girl's head, put a big apple into her hand, said something, and the little girl walked away holding the big apple.
"Hello, brother." The little girl asked with a smile as she passed by Zhuang Buyuan.
Wow, what a polite little girl, she actually called me brother instead of uncle!
Zhuang Buyuan fell in love with this little girl immediately.
But then, his smile froze on his face.
Because he heard his second uncle's roar from the end of the corridor: "Why don't you let us join the experiment?"
"Do you know who I am?"
"Why do you look down on people? Do you think we have no money?"
"I'm telling you, I have a lot of money! I want to buy your place, just give me a price!"
Zhuang Buyuan added the amount with his hand.
here we go again!
It’s not over yet!
