Yu'er expressed her concerns to Fang Pingying about their family, "I want to send some money back home to my parents. When I called last time, my parents weren't home, and my elder brother answered the phone. He said that our dad has not been well health-wise since falling ill last New Year's. His health has been poor throughout this year."
Fang Pingying, upon hearing this, anxiously asked, "Did Second Uncle go to the hospital to find out exactly what's wrong with him?"
"He did go to the county's hospital, but they never specified the illness. He just keeps coughing and has lost a lot of weight," Yu'er sighed, her tone full of worry, "Considering dad's age, he still has to work in the fields every day. Even when sick, he still drags himself to work. My brother and his wife are not filial; they just let him be ill. I really worry that dad's condition might worsen into something serious."
