Chapter 588 (Page 1/2)

Huo Qingyan gently opened the drawer, took out some wrinkled but neatly arranged banknotes and a few colorful receipts, and hurried out the door.

He rode his bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative near the hospital, carefully selected for a long time, and finally bought two cans of malted milk, a large bag of milk powder, and four cans of fruit.

These are things that my mother likes but is reluctant to buy.

Carrying bags of gifts, Huo Qingyan hurried towards the hospital.

When he stepped into the ward where his mother was, panting, he was stunned by the scene before him.

I saw his elder brother holding a small syringe and carefully injecting some medicine into the infusion tube.

He stared at his elder brother's movements with suspicion, and just when he was about to ask what medicine his elder brother was injecting into his mother, he suddenly received a sharp look from his brother.

That look was like a sharp blade, stabbing straight at him, as if warning him not to talk too much.

Huo Qingyan lowered his head and noticed that his mother on the hospital bed had fallen into a deep sleep at some point, and her face looked very haggard.

He hurriedly tiptoed to the bedside and gently placed the nutritional supplements he brought on the bedside table, fearing that any noise would wake his mother.

After his brother finished what he was doing, Huo Qingyan couldn't wait to reach out and grab his wrist, pulling him out of the ward quickly. The two of them came to the end of the corridor.

Huo Qingyan's eyes were fixed on the syringe in his brother's hand. He asked anxiously, "Brother, what medicine did you just add to Mom's medicine? Why have I never seen a syringe like this in your hand before?"

Faced with his brother's barrage of questions, Huo Qingci hesitated for a moment, then replied calmly, "Oh, it's just an ordinary nutritional injection. It can help our mother replenish some nutrients so that her body can recover faster."

When saying this, Huo Qingci's eyes flickered a little, and he didn't dare to look at Huo Qingyan.

In fact, only he himself knew that the syringe contained no ordinary nutritional injection, but the anti-cancer drug given to him by Lin Man.

In order to give his mother better treatment, he had finally secured this cadre ward to ensure that no outsiders would disturb his mother's rest.

Today, he seized the opportunity, sent his father and younger brother away, and secretly injected his mother with anti-cancer drugs while she was taking a nap.

But he never expected that the secret would be discovered by his second brother who arrived halfway.

In desperation, he had to make up a lie, hoping to temporarily calm his second brother.

Huo Qingyan asked doubtfully, "Nutritional injection? What kind of nutritional injection? Will it help my mom gain weight?"

Huo Qingci's eyes flashed, "It must have some effect. Okay, Mom is resting, you go back to work first!"

"I still want to talk to Mom. By the way, brother, why isn't Dad here?"

"Dad's gone to see the doctor. If you want to talk to Dad, go to the doctor's office!"

Huo Qingyan turned and walked towards the doctor's office. Huo Qingci secretly returned the syringe in his hand to the space. Then he quickly returned to the ward and paid close attention to the changes in his mother after taking the medicine.

For the sake of his mother's safety, he took half a day off today and planned to stay in his mother's ward in the afternoon.

Back in the ward, Huo Qingci pulled a stool and sat beside the bed, quietly watching his mother who had fallen into deep sleep.

She weighed 78 kilograms last month, but yesterday she weighed only 70 kilograms. I didn’t expect cancer to be so terrible that it made his mother lose so much weight in an instant.

After killing the cancer cells in his mother's body, he would have to find someone to prescribe two food supplements for his mother to nourish her body.

More than ten minutes later, accompanied by a slightly heavy sound of footsteps, Huo Junshan and Huo Qingyan, father and son, slowly walked into the ward.

Perhaps because they walked in a hurry, the sound of their shoes rubbing against the ground seemed a little harsh, and Xiao Ya, who was originally sleeping quietly, was slowly awakened by this sound.

Huo Qingci saw that his mother had finally regained consciousness. He quickly stood up and walked over to her, asking with concern, "Mom, how are you feeling? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

Xiao Ya frowned slightly, a look of pain on her face. She shook her head gently and replied in a weak voice, "It's okay. I just feel like vomiting. I still feel nauseous."

Huo Junshan, who was standing nearby, quickly stepped forward, pushed his son aside, and gently held Xiao Ya's hand, comforting her: "Xiao Ya, don't worry too much.

You just started chemotherapy today, and these symptoms are normal reactions. They will get better after a while as you adapt."

Huo Qingyan, who was following behind him, couldn't help it either. He quickly walked to the other side of the bed, bent down, and stared at his skinny and haggard mother lying on the bed. His eyes instantly became red and moist.

He whispered with trembling lips, "Mom...why are you so thin again? Tell me, do you want to eat something now? No matter what it is, I will buy it for you."

However, Xiao Ya just smiled and looked at her beloved second son, waved her hand gently, and responded weakly:

"Qingyan, I'm very happy that you can come to visit me. I really don't have an appetite right now, so you don't have to go out of your way to buy anything for me."

At this time, Huo Qingci pointed to the pile of nutritional supplements on the bedside table and said, "Mom, those things on the bedside table are what Qingyan brought."

"Oh, these are what Qingyan brought. Qingyan, take these back for the children to eat."

Huo Qingyan quickly shook her head, "Mom, I bought this for your health. As long as the children have food to eat, that's all."

Seeing that his wife had no energy to speak, Huo Junshan said to his two sons, "Qingci, Qingyan, you go to work. I'll stay here to look after your mother."

Huo Qingyan said, "I want to chat with my mother for a few more minutes."

"What are you talking about? Can't you see your mother is very tired?" Huo Junshan scolded softly.

Xiao Ya said weakly: "Okay, you two father and son should stop arguing."

Huo Qingci interrupted, "Qingyan, go to work first. I'll watch over Mom here."

Huo Qingyan had no choice but to leave first. As soon as he left, Huo Junshan asked Huo Qingci directly, "It's almost two o'clock, why don't you leave?"

"Dad, it's Mom's first day of chemotherapy, and I have to stay with her in the hospital."

"Aren't you working this afternoon?"

"I've asked for leave, Dad. Why don't you go back and have some rest? Come back in the evening. I'll be watching over Mom here."

"Why would I go back? I have to stay here to look after your mother. By the way, Qingyan said that you secretly gave your mother a nutritional injection?"

Huo Qingci had never expected that his second brother would be so talkative. He told his father everything.

At this moment, he was secretly groaning in his heart, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Dad, listen to me, I'm really doing this all for Mom's health! That's why I secretly gave her a nutritional injection. Please don't tell the doctor!" Huo Qingci's face was full of tension and anxiety, and his hands were rubbing unconsciously.

However, Huo Junshan was not so easily fooled. He keenly noticed that his eldest son's behavior was a little unusual. If it was really just an ordinary nutritional injection as his son said, why didn't the doctor prescribe it for his daughter-in-law?

If it wasn't a nutritional injection, then what kind of mysterious medicine did the eldest son inject into his wife? Thinking of this, Huo Junshan frowned tightly, and doubts filled his heart.

After all, the person lying on the hospital bed was his biological mother. According to common sense, Qingci should not do anything rash.

But looking at his son in front of him with a panicked expression and flickering eyes, Huo Junshan found it difficult to dispel the doubts in his heart.

Moreover, this guy even took a special leave and stayed by the bedside, refusing to leave no matter how hard we tried to get him to leave.

Coupled with his erratic eyes, Huo Junshan was even more certain that his eldest son must be hiding an unspeakable secret in his heart.

Although he was full of suspicion, due to the current situation, Huo Junshan was not in a position to continue asking questions.

Fortunately, my daughter-in-law's fever had already subsided the day before yesterday, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to start chemotherapy today. Apart from a loss of appetite and occasional nausea, she hasn't experienced any other unusual symptoms.

Huo Qingci observed his mother in the hospital for the whole afternoon and found that after her mother was injected with anti-cancer drugs, she had no other symptoms except a little diarrhea. He decided to stay and observe her in the evening.

Huo Junshan ran to ask the doctor why his wife had diarrhea. The doctor told him that the chicken soup his wife drank at noon might be too oily, so she had diarrhea.

Huo Junshan told Huo Qingci about this, and Huo Qingci explained, "Dad, the chicken soup at noon wasn't very oily, and Manman scooped out all the oil floating in the soup.

But Mom has diarrhea now, so I won’t bring her soup tonight. I’ll just let her have some lean meat porridge instead.”
