Chapter 2 Grandma Who Endured Hardship Without Trying

(System type and cheat code introduction.)

The fruit I buy is left uneaten; I eat the rotten fruit first, not the good ones. The washing machine is left unused; it spoils if left for too long. The air conditioner is on when it's over 40 degrees Celsius, but I don't turn it on because I'll get heatstroke. My motto is to endure whatever comes my way.

Qi Yuan's grandmother was just that kind of person; she treated herself this way, and she treated her son and grandson the same way.

Every member of the Qi family has eaten rotten apples, sour leftovers, and reddish rice, and the whole family has been to the hospital for these things.

Although the Qi family is not an extremely wealthy family, they are a middle-income family, and the loans for their car and house have long been paid off.

Logically speaking, Qiyuan's grandmother shouldn't be like this, but the whole family searched for the reason but couldn't find a way to change her. If they didn't do what Qiyuan's grandmother wanted, she would cry, make a scene, and threaten to hang herself, insisting that the family couldn't tolerate this old woman anymore, causing the neighbors to look at the Qi family with strange eyes.

No matter how much Qi's parents explained to the neighbors, it was all in vain, and the Qi family suffered a lot of gossip behind their backs because of it.

As they talked, the Qi family got used to it. So what if she wasn't popular? They just pretended not to see or hear it. They thought life would continue like this until Grandma Qi passed away, then the Qi family would move again and life would return to normal.

Little did they know that just as Qi's parents had saved up the money for Qi Yuan's down payment, the whole family, except for Qi Yuan's grandmother, fell ill one after another.

First, Qi's mother suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma while working. She was taken to the hospital for examination and was diagnosed with stomach cancer.

Qi's father couldn't bear to see his wife, with whom he had shared so many years, gone. He wanted to use the savings he had accumulated for Qi's mother's medical treatment, but when he got home, he couldn't find the passbook no matter how hard he looked. When he asked Qi's grandmother, she avoided his gaze and said she didn't know. How could Qi's father not know that Qi's grandmother had hidden the passbook?

But no matter how much Qi's father pleaded, even kneeling down and kowtowing to Qi's grandmother until blood flowed, Qi's grandmother still refused to hand over the savings book.

Qi's father dared not push too hard, so he mortgaged the house and took out a loan to pay for Qi's mother's medical treatment. He worked during the day and went to the hospital to stay with her at night. Because Qi was still in high school, which was a critical period, Qi's father and mother did not allow Qi to go to the hospital often.

Not long after, Qi's father collapsed from exhaustion. Misfortunes never come singly; nothing good happened to the Qi family, and Qi's father was diagnosed with rectal cancer.

The couple were both diagnosed with terminal illnesses and ended up in the same hospital room, taking care of each other.

While at school, she worried about her parents, attending classes during the day and staying with them at night. Her still-underage body grew thinner and thinner, and she collapsed during a mock exam on the eve of the college entrance examination.

Upon examination at the hospital, it was discovered that due to long-term consumption of spoiled food, there was an excessive amount of aflatoxin in the body, which overwhelmed the kidneys, leading to kidney failure. The only treatment available was a kidney transplant.

The family of three reunited in the hospital, embracing and weeping. Sick people shouldn't have negative emotions; the more negative emotions they have, the faster their condition will worsen.

Grandma Qiyuan controlled the savings and completely ignored the life and death of her son and grandson. At first, she would visit the family of three in the hospital, but gradually, she never stepped into the hospital again.

Lacking money and burdened with three serious illnesses, Qi's parents discussed the matter and decided to stop their own treatments, using all their savings on Qi Yuan's medical care. Since neither of them had a kidney, they underwent tissue matching. The good news was that both were a match; the bad news was that, given their physical condition, the hospital wouldn't agree to them donating kidneys to Qi Yuan.

Seeing that Qi Yuan was getting thinner and thinner, until he was skin and bones, Qi Yuan's parents saw the news that "a boy died tragically, and his organ donation gave five people a new life." After a struggle, Qi Yuan's father secretly signed the "organ donation form" behind Qi Yuan's mother's back, and then hanged himself at home.

When Qi's mother received her husband's call, she sensed something was wrong. She tried to dissuade him, but could only hear the dial tone as the call was disconnected. She rushed home, only to find her husband's lifeless body hanging from the ceiling. Suppressing her grief, Qi's mother called the police and emergency services. Looking at the body donation form on the coffee table, she broke down in tears.

When the police and medical staff arrived, Grandma Qiyuan returned home dressed smartly. Seeing her daughter-in-law about to donate her son's body, she desperately tried to stop her. She even took a kitchen knife from the kitchen, held it to her own neck, and said that if she wanted to take her son's body away, she would have to step over her own.

No matter how much Qi's mother tried to persuade her, Qi was still waiting in the hospital for a kidney transplant, and even knelt down and kowtowed to beg, Qi's grandmother just wouldn't put down the knife.

Several hours passed before the medical staff said it was too late. Only then did Grandma Qiyuan triumphantly put down the kitchen knife and happily leave home.

Seeing her husband's body still lying in the house, Qi's mother glanced at the kitchen knife that Qi's grandmother had just thrown away. With a heart full of despair, she picked up a pen and wrote a suicide note, called the police, and then picked up the kitchen knife and slashed her own carotid artery.

Before the police had gone far, they pushed open the door and saw Qi's mother covered in blood.

Qi's mother had already signed an organ donation form, and Qi's wish was fulfilled; he received a kidney transplant.

After the surgery, he prayed to be conscious and able to hear the sounds of the outside world, but he did not wake up for a long time. He suddenly felt that he had difficulty breathing and wanted to struggle, but he could not move.

"My dear grandson, don't blame Grandma. It's because your father isn't my biological son..." Qi Yuan died in shock, never understanding why the grandmother he had lived with since childhood wasn't his biological grandmother.

No wonder the whole family fell seriously ill because they ate spoiled food for a long time, while only Grandma was healthy. Moreover, at every meal, Grandma would keep pushing the food in front of the three of them while she drank water and said, "I'll leave the good stuff for you. Grandma will eat what you leave behind."

Of course, Qi's parents would not do such an unfilial thing, but if you try to persuade them, Qi's grandmother will cry and make a scene, shouting that Qi's parents are unfilial and don't even listen to their mother.

When Qiyuan arrived, this was the scene she was faced with: at the dinner table, Qiyuan's grandmother was holding a plate in one hand and chopsticks in the other, shoveling the processed vegetables into Qiyuan's bowl.

"Ah Yuan, eat more. You're growing all the time." Qi Yuan looked up and saw his grandmother's expression of concern for him, and he couldn't help but feel a chill.

I prayed to get up quickly, holding the bowl in both hands, and wait for the old woman to serve the food.

"Ah Yuan has really grown up. She's become so polite. That's right..." Seeing how obedient Qi Yuan was, the old woman gave her a rare smile and praised her a few times.

The unexpected happened at that moment. Due to the mischief of the prayer, the plate in the old woman's hand shattered for no reason, and her hand was cut by the broken porcelain shards, causing it to bleed.

"Grandma, are you alright? Mom and Dad, hurry and take Grandma to the hospital!" The wound wasn't big; it might heal before it even reached the hospital. The prayer was spoken in a strange, sarcastic tone, but unfortunately, none of the three people present understood it and genuinely thought the old woman had suffered some serious injury.

With a sigh of relief, Mr. and Mrs. Qi put down their rice bowls. One went to find the car keys, and the other went to get the phone, as they prepared to take the old woman to the hospital.

"Where are you going? It's such a small wound, a band-aid will do. Why waste money at the hospital?" The old woman had originally wanted to make a scene and get more compensation from her son, but she never expected her grandson to be so concerned about her. In order to avoid wasting money at the hospital, the old woman could only sternly stop him, push away Mr. and Mrs. Qi, and go to find a band-aid.

I wish I could crouch down and pick up the broken pieces of porcelain.

"Ah Yuan, don't use your hands, your dad went to get the broom." Qi's mother was afraid that her son would also cut his hands on the broken porcelain shards, so she quickly stopped him.

"Okay, Mom." He prayed to find the shard of porcelain stained with the old woman's blood, but the shard vanished without a trace.

Inside the space, the orange cat system, knowing it had been given a chance to function, happily took down a coin that gleamed with silver light. The blood on the porcelain shard was smeared onto the back of the coin, and a flash of silver light appeared, turning into a backlash.

The old woman, who was putting a band-aid on herself, suddenly felt a burning pain in her stomach. Thinking she was just hungry, she rubbed her stomach carelessly, left the room, and started urging the Qi family of three to eat.

At the same time, a family of three in the next building was also about to eat when they all felt a slight discomfort in their stomachs.

"Zhao Qi, why is your mother so late today? My stomach hurts from hunger," Zhao Qi's wife asked, rubbing her stomach.

"She probably has something to do. Let's eat first, no need to wait for her." Zhao Qi wasn't concerned about whether his wife was hungry or not; he was just worried about his son, who was also rubbing his stomach from hunger.

"If your mom comes back and sees that we've eaten first, will she stop giving us money?" Zhao Qi's wife hesitated. You see, the house they live in and the car they drive are all bought by Zhao Qi's mother. Otherwise, with Zhao Qi's monthly salary of three thousand, how could he afford a house of more than 100 square meters in such a nice neighborhood?

"Xiao Yang's stomach hurts from hunger, but Mom loves him so much, she won't say anything."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yang picked up his chopsticks, aimed at the braised pork on the table, and began to eat heartily. Seeing the father and son enjoying their meal, Zhao Qi's wife thought for a moment and then joined in.

When the old woman arrived, she saw a family of three leaning against chairs, rubbing their swollen bellies, with only leftovers on the table.

"Mom..." Zhao Qi's wife was the first to see the old woman, and quickly got up to greet her with a smile.

"I'm not your mother! You actually started eating before I even arrived! Don't you respect this old woman? Do you believe I'll make my son divorce you?" The old woman's stomach was already rumbling with acid. Seeing this, she couldn't bear to vent her anger on her son and grandson, so she naturally turned on her daughter-in-law.

“Mom, Xiaoyang was hungry, that’s why I let him eat first,” Zhao Qi said. The old woman suddenly fell silent. When would her son ever speak up for her again?

Wasn't he switched at birth? They thought their son would enjoy a life of luxury in that wealthy family, but who would have thought that everyone in that family would die young? They all died mysteriously just as Zhao Qi was about to come of age. As for the inheritance, it was discovered that Zhao Qi was not the Zhao family's biological son, so naturally he had no share.

The old woman couldn't bear to see Zhao Qi suffer, so she secretly reunited with him and even used the Qi family's money to support him. Because of this, Zhao Qi resented the old woman and always had a rift between them.

However, this was all the old woman's own opinion; Zhao Qi was just trying to take advantage of her guilt to gain benefits.

Unbeknownst to them, the Qi family members' complexions improved, while the old woman and the Zhao family of three looked worse and worse, frequently catching colds. They didn't think there was anything wrong with their health and treated it as just a cold, without going to the hospital for a checkup.

When the old woman suddenly vomited blood and fell into a coma, she never woke up again.

Before the old woman passed away, Qi's parents bought her a lot of insurance to help her get through her old age. When she suddenly died, the insurance payout alone was more than twice as much as what she had given Zhao Qi, and the Qi family suddenly became wealthy.

Qi's father was heartbroken, feeling that he hadn't let the old woman enjoy a single day of happiness, so he held a grand funeral for her. Zhao Qi knew that the old woman was ill, but fearing the cost, he hid for half a month. By the time Zhao Qi wanted to go to the hospital to check on the old woman, her ashes had already been placed in the cemetery.

Now Zhao Qi can't even get a paternity test to inherit the old woman's property. Although the old woman doesn't have any property, Zhao Qi still feels that his mother does. Unfortunately, without the paternity test results, he can only lock himself in his room and sulk.

The day after the college entrance examination ended, the Qi family prepared to move into their new house. Because the father would sigh whenever he saw the traces of the old woman's life, and the mother couldn't bear to see her husband sighing so much, she decided to use the compensation money to buy the new house in full.

The family was busy moving when they overheard their neighbors gossiping.

"Have you heard? The Zhao family of three in the building next door are all seriously ill. I wonder if it's because they used inferior materials during the renovation to save money..."

"Huh? I didn't hear about leukemia. What does that have to do with the medical records? Didn't they say the man had rectal cancer, his wife had stomach cancer, and their child had kidney failure? Maybe they're just getting their comeuppance for all the bad things they've done..."

Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan smiled slightly. This was indeed retribution, the retribution he had given.

Not long after moving away, Qiyuan received her college admission notice. She went to school, graduated, and got a job in an orderly manner. Inevitably, she faced pressure to get married. Qiyuan separated a wisp of her divine consciousness and transformed it into the appearance of a woman. She got married and had a child. Her son was also transformed from a wisp of Qiyuan's divine consciousness.

Decades later, Qi's parents passed away peacefully with smiles on their faces.

He prayed to donate all his wealth to the country and then departed from the world. As for his wife and son? They were his alter egos, so of course they were with him.

The news of the Qiyuan family's disappearance sparked discussion among the neighbors, who ultimately concluded that Qiyuan couldn't bear to leave her parents and had moved her entire family away from this heartbreaking place.
