Chapter 531 Hesitation (Page 1/2)
On the one hand, he knew that his mother had been suffering from cancer for a long time. If this medicine was really effective, it would undoubtedly bring hope of life to his mother.
But on the other hand, he was afraid that the medicine would lose its effect if left for too long, and might even produce some unexpected side effects, causing greater harm to his mother's body.
This contradictory mood made him fall into deep entanglement.
Lin Man naturally noticed Huo Qingci's inner struggle and worry. She gently patted Huo Qingci's shoulder and comforted him:
"Don't worry too much, although this medicine cannot be guaranteed to be 100% effective, we should always give it a try, right?
Even if this medicine doesn't work, we can still think of other options. For early-stage breast cancer, surgery is done to remove the breast. If you take medication early and take good care of yourself, it generally won't recur."
After saying that, she gave Huo Qingci an encouraging smile, trying to give him some confidence.
Seeing Huo Qingci remained silent, Lin Man suddenly remembered that he seemed to have healing powers, so she reminded him: "Qingci, don't you have healing powers? Can you use them to cure my mother-in-law's cancer?"
Huo Qingci shook his head in frustration, "My ability can only repair ordinary wounds, it can't kill the cancer cells in my mother's body."
"So, do you want Mom to have surgery first, or use this medicine to kill the cancer cells in her body? Even if this medicine can kill the cancer cells in her body, the lump in her chest will not go away..."
"I know this. If the lump persists, my mother will definitely be worried. Surgery is necessary to remove the lump, and taking Chinese medicine won't make it go away.
But the most important thing now is to find a way to kill the cancer cells in my mother's body."
"You're right. Let's kill the cancer cells in Mom's body first and save her life."
"Manman, do you still have this potion?"
"Also, what do you want to do?"
"I want to use this medicine for animal testing. If it works and has no side effects, I'll give it to my mother."
Lin Man asked again: "Does your mother still want to have surgery?"
"Let's take another look!"
Seeing this, Lin Man knew that it was useless to say more, so she stopped trying to persuade him. After they left the space, Huo Qingci carefully placed the potion into his briefcase, gave Lin Man a few words, and then went downstairs with the bag.
Lin Man brought her young sister-in-law to the next room. She handed Huo Rou to her grandfather and asked him to help take care of her.
"Grandpa, grandma is sick and in the hospital. I'm busy cooking now. Could you please look after Rourou?"
Huo Li put down the newspaper in his hand and asked, "Xiao Man, what's wrong with your mother-in-law?"
"Grandpa, let's wait for Qingci to come back in the evening and tell you. I'll go kill the chicken and bring chicken soup to Grandma at noon."
Seeing that Lin Man didn't say what disease his daughter-in-law had, Huo Li didn't want to ask any more. "Okay, go and do your work. I'll take care of Rourou."
After receiving a positive answer from her grandfather, Lin Man returned to her home, closed the door, and took out two chickens, a jar of meat, forty eggs, two sea fish, four or five pounds of shrimp and some vegetables from the space.
My mother-in-law is sick, and shrimp is an irritating food, so she definitely can’t eat it. These are prepared for the children.
She first boiled water and killed both chickens, one to make chicken soup for her mother-in-law and the other to stir-fry in the evening.
A total of six dishes were prepared for lunch, including pan-fried hairtail, braised prawns, chicken stewed with red dates and wolfberries, stir-fried kohlrabi with meat in a jar, wild vegetable egg pancakes, and cold spinach salad.
After the meal was ready, Lin Man saw that her child had not returned yet, so she packed a portion for her mother-in-law in a lunch box and went to the hospital to deliver the meal to her mother-in-law first.

Lin Man came to the ward with food and fruits, and found that only her mother-in-law was lying on the bed receiving an IV drip.
She gently placed the lunch box and the bag of fruit on the bedside table. Xiao Ya, looking haggard, opened her eyes and saw her daughter-in-law coming. A smile crossed her lips. "Manman, why are you here?"
"I'm here to bring you lunch." Lin Man found a chair and sat down.
Xiao Ya asked, "What time is it?"
"It's almost twelve o'clock."
"The kids are almost done with school, Manman. Thank you for coming to bring us lunch. You've worked so hard. What's Rourou doing?"
"She's at home with Grandpa, Mom, don't worry about her. I'll help you look after her while you're in the hospital."
"Thank you. Qinghuan can't really help much by staying in the hospital, so I let him go back to work first.
Your father is going to the doctor to ask about the specific condition. Manman, the nurse just told me that I need surgery to recover from this disease. Can you give me some advice? Do you think I should have the surgery or not?
When Lin Man heard her mother-in-law ask such a question, she really didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Because this matter is too tricky and she cannot decide it casually. If she says the wrong thing, it may cause unnecessary trouble.
She thought to herself that if Huo Qingci could be braver, he could inject the cancer treatment drug directly into her mother-in-law's body.
There is no doubt that those hateful cancer cells in my mother-in-law's body will be completely eliminated.
She had previously told Huo Qingci that she was afraid the medicine would lose its effectiveness if left for too long, and that was also because she was worried. Anyway, her mother-in-law had already contracted the disease, so whether she stuck her head out or hid it would be a risk, so why not be brave and give it a try?
At this moment, Xiao Ya, who had not received a response, spoke again, "I overheard a few nurses whispering that breast cancer like mine must be treated through surgery.
"If I have surgery early, the disease might not recur. But I'm worried that if the tumor isn't completely removed, it might recur. Will I live past 60?"
Lin Man could never have imagined that Huo Qingci had clearly instructed the doctor to help hide the truth from her mother-in-law, but these nurses were so talkative and actually discussed the condition unscrupulously in front of her mother-in-law.
This has really scared my mother-in-law to death. She is worried that the disease will relapse after the surgery and she won’t live past 60.
Seeing her mother-in-law so panicked, Lin Man quickly comforted her, "Mom, don't be so anxious. As the saying goes, there is always a way out. There will always be a way out.
Besides, these are early symptoms. As long as we can detect and treat them early, we can definitely defeat the disease and eventually recover."
At this time, Huo Junshan walked into the ward, "Xiao Man, you're here?"
Lin Man quickly stood up, quickly and gently moved the chair she was sitting on out, and said with a smile: "Dad, please sit down. I'll come over to bring lunch to you and Mom."
Huo Junshan nodded slightly, a look of relief on his face, and said softly, "Xiao Man, you've worked so hard. Shouldn't the children be out of school by now?"
You should go home quickly and don't let the children wait anxiously. Also, I have to stay in the hospital to take care of your mother-in-law these days, so I can only ask you to take care of Rourou at home for a few more days."
Lin Man nodded obediently and said, "Okay."
