Chapter 324: Chapter 324: Dialysis Chapter 324: Chapter 324: Dialysis “Who is it? Lily, is it your friend?” a frail voice asked again.
Sally glanced at He Weng and his group, gave He Weng a warning look, then turned and said to the old lady with a smile,
“Mom, they’re my friends. You rest, I’ll talk to them for a bit.”
The old lady looked over at the group and said with a smile, “You must be Lily’s friends, right? Lily doesn’t have many friends. It’s the first ti I’ve seen friends co to visit, and I’m very happy! I’m just a burden! If it weren’t for , Lily wouldn’t be dragged down like this. She’s not a bad girl. Thank you for being her friends.”
Sally gave a bitter smile, “Mom, don’t scare them off,”
In her mother’s eyes, she was probably the best daughter.
Even though she was now spoken about so negatively by the neighbors, who cares about your hardships, everyone just sees that you’ve taken the wrong path.
Bai Xiao smiled and placed the items in his hand on the old lady’s bedside, “Auntie, don’t say that, Sally is a good girl. We know that. We ca specifically to see how you are. Take good care of yourself, and Sally will be reassured.” They had just bought so things after getting out of the car because it wouldn’t be polite to co empty-handed.
It was so fruit and canned cakes.
The old lady, upon hearing her daughter praised, was elated and gripped Bai Xiao’s hand tightly without letting go, “Your daughter has a way with words. My child, let tell you, it’s not just bragging about our Lily. It’s all because of my illness. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be like this. That child used to do so well in school.
She always ranked at the top of her class. If her father were still here, she could have gone to university. But her father died in a car accident, and I got uremia. This disease is just a drag, needing dialysis every month, and money flows away like water. If it weren’t for this, Lily wouldn’t have gone down this path.” The old lady was full of pride when she spoke of her daughter.
Bai Xiao looked at Sally, and Sally gave an awkward smile. Who would want to talk to a sickly old lady?
“Sorry, we rarely have visitors at ho. My mom gets too excited when soone cos, and it’s bothering you. Why don’t you sit outside?” She didn’t want others to look down on her and her mother.
Bai Xiao took a look around the entire room, knowing about Sally’s background from He Weng. A girl who sold her body, lived a reckless life, yet resided in such a dilapidated house without any fancy luxury items. The money must have definitely been for her mother’s dical treatnt.
Alas, a girl like Sally! She probably agreed to help He Weng because she still had a shred of kindness in her heart. That shred of kindness was enough for He Weng to escape from danger. Otherwise, Sally could’ve just turned He Weng in, and that Mr. Xu would probably have given her even more rewards.
Just for that alone! This girl was worth helping.
“I am a doctor from the Military District Hospital. If you trust , I can perform acupuncture treatnt on your mother. Today’s treatnt could alleviate so of the patient’s pain, and a total of three treatnts are needed. For this first ti, I’ll co to your ho to do it! For the remaining two tis, you can bring your mother to the hospital. I can assure you, your mother won’t need to go through dialysis treatnt anymore,” Bai Xiao said seriously.
Give a peach in return for a plum.
Good people should be rewarded.
Sally scoffed, “It’s not that I don’t trust you, but I’ve taken my mom to see many specialists. We even went to the great doctors in Capital City! They all said that there was no way, we could only maintain her condition with dialysis unless we had enough money to find a kidney transplant. Otherwise, there’s no chance of recovery. You don’t need to comfort , I know it’s incurable.” It wasn’t that she didn’t trust Bai Xiao; it’s what all the doctors had said, so she had no reason to believe him.
