In the countryside, people believe that fallen leaves should return to their roots and rest peacefully in the earth. When someone is dying, even if they are in the hospital, when they're truly on their last breath, they are taken home to pass away there, especially the elderly.
So, for Deng Weixia to take her home meant they were opting not to treat her anymore.
Upon hearing this, Deng Weiqiu raised his head and looked at Deng Weixia. His mouth opened as if wanting to say something, but his throat seemed to be stuck, and he couldn't utter a single word.
In truth, everyone understood that Deng Weixia's decision was the right one for them.
If Deng Weixia's family were wealthy, then they might spend some money to try treatments, and later could hire someone to care for the aunt. But the fact is, Deng Weixia's family is so poor they're living hand to mouth. One person works to support several, so where would the money come from?
