Yang Xiaoqi walked aside, turned on the light, and moved two benches for Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan to sit on. "Sorry, the house is a bit small." She and her mother moved here after her father passed away, and they have lived here for several years.
"Ahem! Xiaoqi, who are they?" the haggard, sallow-faced middle-aged woman lying in bed spoke with difficulty. She had lung cancer and wasn't going to last much longer.
"They were sent by my aunt to deliver the will." Yang Xiaoqi walked to the bedside, helped her mother up, and patted her on the back to help her breathe. "My aunt is the little daughter that my grandparents gave away. She knew about us and gave us the house and inheritance before she left." With the money, she could pay for her mother's medical treatment.
"Oh!" Li Shuilian nodded without any emotion.
"Mom, let me help you get out of bed. We can move into the big house soon." Yang Xiaoqi lifted the quilt and wanted to help Li Shuilian get out of bed.
Li Shuilian shook her head and said, "Mom is doing fine here. I won't go with you. Cough cough cough..." She didn't have much time left to live, and going with you would only be a burden to Xiaoqi.
Yang Xiaoqi reached out and took the water cup on the bench next to her and handed it to Li Shuilian's mouth, "Mom, drink some water first." She knew her mother's health condition, but she would not give up as long as there was a little hope.
Su Jinyue walked up to Yang Xiaoqi and her daughter and said, "Let me help her."
Yang Xiaoqi looked up in surprise and looked at Su Jinyue, "Are you a doctor?"
Su Jinyue nodded, reached out and took Li Shuilian's hand to feel her pulse, "Your mother has some lung problems, but don't worry, it's not a big deal."
When Yang Xiaoqi heard Su Jinyue's words, a glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes, "Can you cure my mother's illness?" Uncle Liu, who treated her mother, told her that her mother had lung cancer. The other party was able to diagnose that there was a problem with her mother's lungs at once. It seemed that he was really a doctor, but she said that her mother's problem was not serious. However, her mother was obviously terminally ill, so how could it not be a serious problem?
Su Jinyue took out a jade bottle, poured out a pill from it and handed it to Yang Xiaoqi, "Take this medicine, and your mother's illness will be cured."
Yang Xiaoqi looked at the medicine in Su Jinyue's hand, her eyes filled with hesitation. Her mother had lung cancer; how could a single pill cure it? But the other party had no grudge against them, so it shouldn't be possible for them to harm them. If it was about the will, then at worst, the other party wouldn't contact them; they didn't know about it anyway.
Li Shuilian reached out and took the medicine from Su Jinyue's hand and stuffed it directly into her mouth. She didn't have much time to live anyway, so she might as well give it a try.
"Mom." Seeing this, it was too late for Yang Xiaoqi to stop her. She could only stare at her mother closely to see if she would change.
As time went by, Li Shuilian felt more and more comfortable. The blockage in her chest gradually disappeared, and she felt more relaxed. It seemed that the medicine was really working.
"Mom, how are you feeling?" Yang Xiaoqi looked at Li Shuilian and asked nervously. Her mother looked much better than before, but she wasn't sure if it was just her imagination.
Li Shuilian nodded and said, "Much better. My throat isn't itchy anymore, and I don't have that constant urge to cough anymore." She turned to look at Su Jinyue and said gratefully, "Thank you, doctor!" She hadn't felt this comfortable for a long time, as if she had been refreshed.
Su Jinyue smiled and shook her head, "I just happen to have a special medicine for this."
Yang Xiaoqi stood up and bowed gratefully to Su Jinyue, "Thank you for curing my mother's illness." She hadn't seen her mother so energetic for a long time. Although she didn't know whether her mother had recovered, seeing the relaxed smile on her mother's face, she was really grateful to Su Jinyue.
"You're welcome! What do you need to pack? We'll help you. The furniture and bedding are all there, so you don't need to bring anything." Su Jinyue said. She had already had new things put in, and they just had to move in.
"But what about the furniture here?" Li Shuilian asked. The tables and chairs were still usable; it would be a shame to throw them away.
"Why don't you give it to a neighbor, or sell it?" Su Jinyue suggested. The furniture was barely usable. Like the chair she was sitting on, one leg was broken. If someone heavier sat on it, it would probably fall apart.
"Okay then." Yang Xiaoqi nodded and walked to the side to take out a wooden box from the closet. The box contained their only living expenses and some photos of their parents when they were young, which were also their most precious things.
