Chapter: 2155

Although she had always been selfish, after experiencing various hardships during this period, she had developed some concern for her grandchildren too.

Thinking about her son and grandsons still lying in bed crying for milk, Xiao Lao Tai Tai quickly came to the canteen window and asked the staff preparing to leave: "Hey, do we need to take these leftovers and stale bread, rice, etc. with us?"

The other party looked at her, a face full of helplessness, and said, "Not to mention, Mrs. Xiao, you've eaten three people's worth of food by yourself and still haven't had enough?"

Mrs. Xiao blushed and apologized with a smile, saying, "Hey, I have eaten my fill, there are still hungry bellies at home, you don't know, it's been almost two days and two nights since we've had anything to eat."

The other party was surprised and asked, "Really? What era is this that people can't even get enough food?"

Mrs. Xiao's face turned red with embarrassment, saying, "Well, you don't know, my family has had some trouble recently, my eldest daughter-in-law got breast cancer and it turned out to be late-stage, now she's almost at death's door. My son is taking care of her treatment by spending all our money."

As she spoke, Mrs. Xiao suddenly felt a very refreshing feeling in her heart.

It's really very refreshing!

She had always looked down on the red envelope and couldn't stand it, but if not for Wu Donghai's restraint, Mrs. Xiao would have wanted to beat him up badly.

Especially recently, Red Envelope has been going against her in all sorts of ways, even forcing her to go out to work; she had already deeply resented Red Envelope.

So, when speaking in front of others, she fabricated the rumor that Red Envelope got breast cancer and is about to die, giving her a sense of revenge.

The canteen staff suddenly let out a cry when they heard this: "Ah? Late-stage breast cancer? That's too pitiful!"

"This isn't even the worst of it!" Mrs. Xiao let out a long sigh: "Ah, my elder daughter-in-law has terminal breast cancer, and my younger one is even more pitiful!"

The staff asked hurriedly: "Mrs. Xiao, what happened to your younger daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Xiao's face was filled with regret as she said: "My younger daughter-in-law already had uremic syndrome and relied on dialysis to stay alive. Then, during her trip to the hospital for dialysis recently, she got hit by a car and lost her legs below the waist."

Everyone was shocked: "That's so pitiful!"

Mrs. Xiao's face turned stern: "What's that even? There's something even more miserable waiting ahead!"

The staff asked further: "Is there something even worse?"

Mrs. Xiao lamented repeatedly: "My younger daughter-in-law, who lost her leg and still had to go to the hospital for dialysis, was already pitiful enough. But then she got a cerebral thrombosis and now spends every day with her mouth twisted to one side, like Zhao Si'er in that rural romance novel, even more severe than his illness!"

When Mrs. Xiao's anger subsided, her heart felt even more relieved.

She almost wishes Ma Lan's situation was as miserable as her own arrangement. Even hoping she would get worse and worse!

But, the staff didn't know that she was just talking nonsense.

The staff thought, who in their right mind would go around cursing their family members? So Mrs. Xiao's words must be true.

Therefore, she said with great sympathy: "It's no wonder your old folks are still working at such an age, with one thing after another happening at home, you're really not easy!"

As she spoke, she said: "Mrs. Xiao, we still have seven or eight pieces of bread left, almost four portions of rice, and some leftover dishes, do you have a lunchbox? I'll give it to you to take back!" JrNovels.com
