Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife novel Chapter 225

"So what? Didn’t she say she doesn’t need our help when she insists on marrying Li Chenxuan? Now she’s like this, and her husband can’t wait to throw her back to our family. Does the Li family think we are easy to bully?" Mother Jiao asked.

Father Jiao fell silent when he heard his wife’s words. Their daughter did say those words when she got married five years ago. Over the years, their daughter has always tried to repair their relationship and given their family a lot of things. But his wife still likes to bring it up and doesn’t accept their daughter’s intention to repair their relationship.

Seeing that her husband was silent, Mother Jiao snorted and said, "You’d better not get involved in this matter. If your son-in-law doesn’t fulfill his promise, I won’t care about his wife."

Father Jiao made a tired sound and said, "You should eat first, otherwise the noodles will get soggy and won’t taste good."

Mother Jiao finally stopped complaining and started eating noodles. While his wife was eating, Father Jiao went to the doctor and learned about Jiao Siyu’s condition.

At first, he thought his daughter’s illness was not dangerous and she would just need to be hospitalized for a period of time. But after hearing the doctor’s explanation, he was shocked.

"Comrade, you should be prepared for the worst outcome. The patient’s condition is getting worse day by day, and the family has not yet made a decision about treatment. If treatment is delayed for too long, the cancer cells may spread to other places, and the success rate of the radiotherapy will further decrease."

"Doctor, how much will the treatment cost?" Father Jiao asked.

"Currently, the best way to treat blood cancer is radiotherapy. But one treatment costs at least several hundred yuan."

Father Jiao was stunned by the doctor’s words and stammered, "A few hundred yuan..."

"The hospital can help family members apply for donations from the central government. But it needs Professor Zhang’s recommendation. After making a decision, you can go to Professor Zhang and ask for a recommendation letter," the doctor added.

Father Jiao couldn’t process the doctor’s words at all due to his shock, so he said, "Thank you, doctor."

The doctor looked at Father Jiao’s pale face, nodded to him, and then left. After being alone, Father Jiao sat on a chair in the corridor for a long time before returning to the ward. As soon as he opened the door, he heard his wife’s voice.

"Where are you going? I’ve finished dinner, let’s go back. I’m tired and want to take a shower."

Father Jiao looked at Jiao Siyu and said, "You go back first. I want to spend some time with my daughter."

Mother Jiao squinted her eyes at her husband and noticed something was wrong with him. But she looked at him for a while and only saw his pale lips.

Li Chenmo raised his eyebrows when he saw Ling Yun helping Pan Meijia carry things. Looking at them, he recalled his actions with his wife. At that moment, a knowing look flashed in his eyes, and his smile grew brighter.

Unaware that someone was observing behind her, Pan Meijia looked at Ling Yun and asked, "Comrade Ling, do you like candied fruits?"

Ling Yun glanced at her and nodded, "Yes."

He actually didn’t like sweets, but he noticed that she gave Li Chenmo’s wife something at noon, and guessed that the candied fruits she mentioned might have been made by herself. As long as she makes it, he will like it. So, even though he usually didn’t eat sweets, he still wanted to eat the ones made by her.

Hearing his answer, Pan Meijia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I made some candied fruits. You can bring some back later."

Hearing her words, he raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "Alright."

Pan Meijia hesitated for a moment before she said, "Comrade Ling, actually you don’t need to help me with my work. As long as I can get 8 work points and can complete my work, I’m content. Your body has not fully recovered yet, so you shouldn’t push yourself too hard and focus on your own work."
