"This time, I believe you are blessed with good fortune and will surely get better!"
What Xiao Dang said was incredibly comforting to Qin Huai Ru.
"That's right!"
Qin Huai Ru's hope of survival rekindled: "The leg pain I had last time was also very severe!"
"We didn't have money for treatment then and could only lie in the hospital and tough it out. Didn't we get through it in the end?"
"Although the situation this time is serious, if I grit my teeth and endure for a while, there might be a turnaround!"
Xiao Dang immediately chimed in: "I think so too!"
"Mom, you're a sensible person now. Our family can't do without you!"
"What about my younger brother if you have to have an amputation?"
"Rest well in the hospital for a few days, and go back when your condition eases up!"
"Sigh, I'll listen to Xiao Dang. In the hospital..."
"Ouch, it hurts so much!"
Qin Huai Ru tried to put on a brave face to show Xiao Dang and Xiao Huai Hua that she could indeed endure.
Unexpectedly, a piercing pain suddenly struck, making Qin Huai Ru's face turn green.
Xiao Huai Hua cried and said, "Mom, I think you shouldn't force yourself anymore!"
"Enough!"
Qin Huai Ru retorted with a dark expression: "Even if I die from the pain, I will never choose amputation!"
"My mind is very clear now, and I am an adult, not a child anymore!"
Xiao Huai Hua wanted to say more, but Xiao Dang immediately intervened to dissuade her.
"Alright, Huai Hua, say less!"
"Our anxiety right now is not entirely without reason!"
"Tell me, we still have a younger brother to take care of!"
"And we still need Mom to hold this family together. If we completely fall apart, how can our family continue to function?"
Xiao Huai Hua really wanted to scold Xiao Dang at this point.
Xiao Dang's current attitude seemed to be out of concern for the family's financial situation.
But in reality, her motives were not that noble. Xiao Dang simply didn't want to waste money on Qin Huai Ru.
Amputation surgery is a major operation, and such a large surgery would undoubtedly require a considerable expense.
It was likely that even all the 1,500 yuan from selling the house wouldn't be enough.
Where would Xiao Dang get the money if it wasn't enough?
Therefore, Xiao Dang's intention was for Qin Huai Ru to just tough it out.
If Qin Huai Ru couldn't bear it anymore and died, then so be it.
Afterward, the children would arrange the funeral for Qin Huai Ru, and the matter would be concluded.
In short, Xiao Dang's attitude towards Qin Huai Ru now was to give up treatment.
Tragically, Qin Huai Ru herself was confused and not thinking clearly at all.
She still naively believed that Xiao Dang was concerned about her.
Little did she know that Xiao Huai Hua, who truly cared about her, was now driven to despair by her own mother.
With Xiao Dang's comfort, Qin Huai Ru's willpower visibly strengthened.
In the following few days, the sounds of Qin Huai Ru's screams and groans were noticeably less intense.
...
Four days later, Qin Huai Ru's swollen legs miraculously deflated again.
A miracle in medical history had occurred once more.
Moreover, all these miraculous occurrences, several times over, had happened to Qin Huai Ru, completely astonishing the doctors at the hospital.
To thoroughly investigate the truth, the hospital even gave Qin Huai Ru a free full-body physical examination.
The hospital intended to use this method to uncover the real reason behind Qin Huai Ru's miraculous recovery.
Could it be that Qin Huai Ru's body truly contained some special component?
Unfortunately, after repeated tests, the hospital found no abnormalities in Qin Huai Ru.
Even Qin Huai Ru's medical records were filled with question marks.
But no matter what, Qin Huai Ru's miraculous recovery this time was undoubtedly a cause for great joy for the Jia family.
Qin Huai Ru was in high spirits. After being discharged from the hospital, she even bought a string of firecrackers and celebrated at the doorway.
Taking advantage of Qin Huai Ru's good mood after her recovery, Xiao Huai Hua discussed some issues with her again.
The most crucial issue among them was the handover of the Jia family's property.
Xiao Huai Hua's suggestion was: "Mom, the property transfer procedures are now complete!"
"The ownership of this house has already fallen into Liu Kai Xuan's hands!"
"I think we should vacate the house for them as soon as possible!"
"After all, he helped us when we were in the most difficult time."
As soon as the matter of the house was brought up, Qin Huai Ru's expression turned extremely grim.
"Xiao Huai Hua, you useless good-for-nothing with no brains, look at what you're saying. Hmph?"
"That brat Liu Kai Xuan is a ravenous wolf who eats people without spitting out bones. I think he's put some spell on you!"
Xiao Huai Hua hurriedly explained: "Mom, you've really misunderstood me!"
"No matter what you think, the contract is signed clearly in black and white!"
"The property ownership now belongs to Liu Kai Xuan. Sigh..."
"Hmph!"
Qin Huai Ru sneered in return: "Liu Kai Xuan took advantage of my desperation and urgent need for money to seize it through coercion!"
"The agreement he forced me to sign is legally invalid!"
"It's a good thing I didn't sue him for extortion. And he still dares to demand the house from me?"
"If he dares to snatch my house, I'll fight him to the death, hmph!"
"Mom, why are you like this!"
"If you break your word and act unethically, who will dare to help us if our family faces difficulties in the future?"
"Enough!"
Qin Huai Ru retorted indignantly: "It's not your place, a mere girl, to lecture me!"
"Huai Hua, listen carefully, that brat Liu Kai Xuan is not a good person!"
"I warn you, it's better for you to stay away from him in the future!"
"Otherwise, who knows if one day you'll be sold off and still be helping him count the money, hmph!"
Xiao Huai Hua was instantly enraged: "Mom, have you forgotten!"
"When you were lying in the hospital bed, critically ill, who helped you?"
"Yi Zhong Hai is your husband, did he care about your life or death when you were in the greatest difficulty?"
"Sha Zhu kept saying he would take care of you and Qin Hao, but where was he when your life was hanging by a thread?"
