Chapter 109: I am sorry for not being able to make you a better person
The moment Jiang Xiaoting walked out of the Public Security Bureau, she happened to see Zhao Chunmei being held down by two police officers.
Zhao Chunmei also saw her.
"dawn--"
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Xiaoting immediately gave him a look and shouted something silently.
Although Zhao Chunmei didn't hear what was said specifically, she could roughly tell that she was being told not to speak.
The two passed each other, and Jiang Xiaoting pretended that she and Zhao Chunmei didn't know each other at all.
But Xu Wangjing, who was the last one to arrive, saw the eye contact between the two clearly.
"Have you reported the case?"
He deliberately walked to Jiang Xiaoting's side.
Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoting was startled. She looked up and found that Xu Wangjing was standing in front of her without her knowing when.
"I have reported... I have reported."
She swallowed, feeling a little guilty.
Then he pretended to be casual and asked, "Who was arrested?"
Although she just looked curious, Xu Wangjing could still hear the nervousness in her tone.
"Thief."
He responded and went into the Public Security Bureau on his own.
After a while, Jiang Xiaoting dared to look back.
Oh no, Zhao Chunmei has been arrested. Will the wanted criminal mentioned before come?
There's a reward of one hundred dollars.
She gritted her teeth and hesitated whether to go in and tell Xu Wangjing.
——
Sihe Village, downstream of the river.
The moment Jiang Anan saw Huang's father, her brows furrowed.
It’s not that Huang’s father didn’t see where the man ran. On the contrary, he remembered it quite clearly and knew that the man was heading towards Hecheng.
The reason she frowned was because of Huang's father's illness.
Originally, when Huang's mother asked her to give him some medicine, she didn't care much about it, thinking that maybe the old man had some problems.
But what she didn't expect was that Huang's father's condition was very complicated, even...
She was a little unsure whether it was nasopharyngeal cancer.
"An An, what do you think? Can your friend cure it?"
When Huang's mother saw Jiang Anan standing there for a long time without saying anything, she became a little confused.
"Have you taken him to the city clinic?"
Jiang Anan came back to her senses and looked at Huang's mother and Huang Rongyao.
When asked this question, both of them shook their heads.
How can farmers who work in the fields have so much money to go to the city clinic for medical treatment...
"Then have you consulted Dr. Yang in the village?"
Doctor Yang’s medical skills are not so bad that he can’t even see such a serious condition. And if he could see it, he wouldn’t just prescribe some Chinese medicine.
When asked this, Huang's mother's face looked a little ugly.
Seeing this, Jiang Anan was a little puzzled and looked at Huang Rongyao.
Being stared at like this, Huang Rongyao felt a little uncomfortable all over. After a while, he whispered, "Doctor Yang said that my father's disease is fatal and that he can't be cured. My mother thought he was talking nonsense and had a quarrel with him. Later, she went to ask Wang the witch from Dashi Village to help prescribe medicine..."
A witch?!
Jiang Anan was speechless for a moment.
"My friend's medicine can't cure this disease. He needs surgery. Please send him to the city's health center as soon as possible."
When these words came out, the three members of the Huang family were stunned.
What?
This requires surgery?!
"An... An'an, you are not kidding your aunt, are you? He looks like he can eat and drink, it can't be that serious, right?"
Huang's mother pulled the corners of her mouth, but there was a hint of fear in her tone.
Huang Rongyao at the side also didn't quite believe it, "My dad doesn't even drink alcohol, he can't have this disease!"
"Does he smoke a pipe?"
Jiang Anan glanced at the pipe that Huang's father placed aside.
Cigarettes are expensive these days and hard to buy, so if villagers smoke, they basically smoke dry tobacco.
"People who smoke are more likely to get nasopharyngeal cancer, and his face is so swollen. Do you think this is okay?"
There was a hint of disappointment in Jiang Anan's tone.
In her previous life, before she resigned from the hospital, she had seen too many patients like this. As long as the patient was not paralyzed in bed and unable to get up, she didn't think it was a serious illness!
"You're not a doctor either..."
Huang's mother muttered something in a low voice.
"Okay, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."
Jiang Anan didn't want to argue, so she turned around and planned to go to Hecheng Health Center to inquire about the man.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Huang's mother became anxious.
"You...you can't leave. Rongyao's father has told you everything. It's inappropriate for you to leave like this, right?"
She still wanted Jiang Anan to get some medicine.
"My friend doesn't have such effective medicine. The only option for this disease is surgery." At this point, she glanced at Huang's father, who was already in the middle stage of nasopharyngeal cancer. "I have seen people with similar symptoms at my friend's place. They also didn't want to have surgery, and they died within a few months."
She saw it with her own eyes.
Clearly, the family had promised her that they would definitely come to the hospital for the surgery, but later...
She didn't want to think about these things anymore.
She left the hospital in her previous life because, firstly, she was too tired, and secondly, she didn’t want to see so many separations and deaths anymore.
"Dad, let's go! I'll take you to the city now!"
Although Huang Rongyao didn't like Jiang Anan's appearance of knowing everything, he didn't want to lose his father.
But neither Mr. Huang nor Mrs. Huang wanted to go.
"What a waste of money! I heard that a checkup at the city clinic costs a lot of money. If I go there and the doctor prescribes a few tests, all my money will go into it!"
The couple is afraid of being poor.
I've been raising ducks for the past six months, and my life has become a little better.
"If I don't have money, I'll go borrow it. If I'm sick, I need to get treatment. Otherwise, I'll die. What's the point of having money?!"
After Huang Rongyao finished speaking, he took his father’s arm and left.
Huang's mother wanted to follow him, but he yelled at her to stay where she was and to stay and watch the ducks.
"Oh my! This is such a waste of money!"
She didn't believe that her husband had a serious illness that required surgery at the city's health center to be cured. It was probably that Jiang Anan wanted to recruit people for her so-called friend!
She had heard that the doctors in the health center made a lot of money by relying on their patients!
But she didn't dare to persuade him. After thinking it over, she decided to go find Wang the witch and ask her to help her persuade her son.
——
When they arrived at Hecheng Health Center, Jiang Anan separated from Huang Rongyao and his son.
The place she was going to was for treating external injuries, which was different from the clinic that Huang's father was going to.
When she arrived at the trauma treatment area, she asked the nurse about the man's appearance and injuries.
After hearing this, the nurse looked at her with a little more doubt.
"What is your relationship with him?"
"I..." Jiang Anan thought for a moment and then made up a lie: "I'm his sister. I went back to my parents' home today and only then did I know that he had an accident..."
When the nurse heard that it was the patient's sister, she was not so alert anymore.
But there was a hint of doubt in his eyes. This woman was so beautiful, and she and that man were actually siblings?
Are they born from the same mother?
After a while, she came back to her senses, "He usually comes to change the medicine at four in the afternoon. You wait here for a while."
After listening to this, Jiang Anan glanced at the clock hanging on the wall. There were still ten minutes until four o'clock. She didn't have time to ask Xu Wangjing to come and help, so she had to wait here for the time being.
A few minutes after four o'clock, Jiang Anan saw a figure walking in from the door -
