Chapter 533: That’s My Real Mother (Page 1/2)
When he arrived at the nurses' station, Huo Qingyan anxiously asked the nurse on duty about his mother's condition.
The nurse on duty looked at his nervous expression, hesitated for a moment, and then said softly, "Comrade, your mother has breast cancer. If she wants to be cured, the only way is to arrange surgery as soon as possible.
If she doesn't have surgery, the tumor in her body will get bigger and bigger, and if it metastasizes, it will be too late to treat it."
Upon hearing this news, Huo Qingyan felt as if struck by lightning and was completely stunned.
"Comrade Nurse, can't my mother's illness be cured by taking medicine or injections?"
The nurse on duty shook her head. "The lump in your mother's body is not an ordinary lump. Ordinary lumps can be cured by taking some Chinese medicine to soften and dissipate the nodules. But the lump in your mother's body must be removed surgically."
After a long while, he slowly came to his senses and walked out of the nurses' station with heavy steps.
At this time, Song Jingjing, who had been by his side, noticed her husband's unusually low mood.
She walked forward distressedly, gently held Huo Qingyan's arm, and said softly, "Qingyan, didn't the nurse just say that Mom can be cured with surgery? Don't worry so much."
However, Huo Qingyan seemed to have not heard his wife's words at all. He just muttered to himself, "Jingjing, that's my biological mother! If...if my mother really has an accident and leaves me, what should I do in the future?"
As he spoke, he raised his right hand and slapped his head hard, as if trying to sober himself up, or to vent the unspeakable pain deep in his heart.
"Qingyan, your mother will be fine. Do you think she got sick because she was too old to give birth? I heard that your mother was old and had little milk when she gave birth to your sister, so she drank a lot of milk-inducing soups and medicines."
Huo Qingyan looked at Song Jingjing coldly, "What do you mean? Are you trying to say that my mother got this disease because she gave birth to my sister?"
Song Jingjing knew very well that Huo Qingyan was unhappy at the moment, but she still insisted on expressing her opinion: "Qingyan, I think our mother's illness this time is probably more or less related to her giving birth.
I've said it before, there's really no need to risk having a child at this age! What happened?
Now, not only have outsiders made fun of our family, but my mother-in-law must have liver qi stagnation because of this, and she even has a lump in her breast!"
Hearing his wife's words, Huo Qingyan frowned and responded, "Since you all know that my mother had a breast lump due to liver qi stagnation, if we had been more considerate and caring towards her, perhaps she wouldn't have ended up like this.
Besides, my sister is already three years old now, so don’t bring this up to blame her anymore. Rourou is a very obedient little girl, much more well-behaved and sensible than our Zizi!”
Talking about her own children, Song Jingjing couldn't help but sigh slightly. They had three children in total, the eldest son was the oldest, the youngest son was the second oldest, and the daughter was the last.
Although Song Jingjing dislikes her daughter the most among the three children, if she compares her daughter with her sister-in-law, her own flesh and blood is naturally more important.
Seeing her husband talking about her daughter, she was still a little unhappy, "Qingyan, Zizi loves you as her father the most. She will give you a bite of any delicious food. How can you say that she is disobedient?"

"Okay Jingjing, as a parent, how can we not know the shortcomings of our own children? Rourou is my sister, and Xinxin is my niece. Although I like them, they are not my daughters no matter how much I like them.
Don't worry about this little thing anymore. We're talking about my mom's condition. Don't go to grandpa's house tonight. Just stay home and take care of the kids."
Song Jingjing asked back, "Why can't I go? If I don't go, your father and the others will think I don't care about my mother-in-law's life or death."
Huo Qingyan was too lazy to pay attention to her. He didn't have time to quarrel with his wife. He went back to eat first. In the afternoon, he would ask his colleagues to see if there were any other treatments for his mother's disease.
Huo Qingci was busy until after seven in the evening. When he came back, Lin Man and the others had already finished dinner.
The children did their homework next door after dinner, and Huo Rou also played next door after taking a bath.
Seeing Huo Qingci coming back, Lin Man took the briefcase from him and asked, "Qingci, didn't you go to the hospital this afternoon? Did you have dinner?"
"No, I'm going to the research center this afternoon."
"Then you should eat first! I'll bring lunch to Mom and Dad at noon. Dad said we'll come over at eight o'clock for a family meeting to discuss whether Mom should have the surgery or not."
"Okay, I'll eat first and then wait for them to come over."
Lin Man put down Huo Qingci's briefcase, then went to the cupboard to take out all the leftover food.
After Huo Qingci finished his meal, he suddenly took out an oval bluestone the size of a baby's head from his space.
"Manman, I feel like there's something wrong with this stone. It feels very comfortable to the touch, so I brought it back for you to see."
Lin Man Lin Man came forward curiously and examined the stone carefully. She stretched out her fingers and gently touched the surface of the stone. As Huo Qingci said, it felt very comfortable.
"This stone is really strange. It looks ordinary, but it feels very comfortable to touch."
Lin Man felt that touching the stone was more comfortable than absorbing the wood crystal core. She took the stone in her hand, turning it over and over, examining and rubbing it, but couldn't figure it out. Finally, she decided to activate her wood ability to explore it.
At this moment, the stone suddenly emitted a dazzling light. Lin Man and Huo Qingci were both startled by this sudden change.
"This...what's going on?" Lin Man asked in surprise.
Huo Qingci also looked bewildered. He shook his head and said, "I don't know either. This didn't happen when I picked it up before."
Lin Man withdrew her supernatural power, and the two of them stared at the stone for a while, and the light gradually disappeared.
She frowned tightly, staring at the mysterious stone, lost in deep thought.
Lin Man secretly wondered in her heart: Could it be that this seemingly ordinary stone hides some kind of energy?
However, this stone is obviously very different from the zombie crystal cores in the apocalypse, but what is puzzling is that the energy contained inside it is far purer and richer than those crystal cores.
What kind of stone is this? This question is like a huge mystery, lingering in Lin Man's mind.
After pondering for a moment, she raised her head and cast a puzzled look at Qingci beside her, and asked, "Qingci, where did you pick up this stone?"
