The Jackson sisters had actually been listening to the situation here all along. When they heard Peter Brown say that their mother could stand up, the sisters rushed over.
"Peter, can my mom stand up?"
The eyes of the two sisters revealed a mixture of surprise and deep concern.
With the Bone Condensation Pill and Peter’s True Qi cultivation boosting his confidence, he saw that Narcissus Brown’s legs were already full of color.
Removing the silver needles one by one, Peter stood up and said, "You guys help her, and try it out."
"Mom, hurry up and try!"
Lana noticed her mother’s leg condition in an instant. Pointing to the colorful, normal-looking legs, she said, "Mom, look at your legs!"
At that moment, Narcissus also looked at her own legs. Just like Peter, she was full of surprise. After stroking her legs for a while, she looked at Peter with wide eyes and asked, "Peter, are these really my legs?"
"Mom, quickly stand up and try."
Lily was already holding Narcissus’s left hand firmly.
Lana also quickly held her right hand.
The two sisters held Narcissus from the left and right.
Sitting hesitantly in the bamboo chair for a while, Narcissus was somewhat afraid to try to stand up. She looked at Peter’s eyes, full of hesitation.
Of course, Peter knew her thoughts; she was worried about being disappointed once again.
"Go ahead, stand up!"
With his clenched fist, Peter cheered her on.
Encouraged by Peter, Narcissus felt her legs, which hadn’t had any sensation for so long, now had a feeling. She could feel her feet on the ground.
Could it really work?
"Don’t worry, you can stand up!"
Peter encouraged her once more.
"Mom, I’m holding you. Don’t be afraid!"
Lily held her mother tightly.
Lana also seemed to use her entire strength, as her mother standing up was very important to both of them.
Testing the ground, Narcissus bit her teeth, slowly stood up with the support of her two daughters.
At this moment, everyone’s attention was on Narcissus.
With the sisters’ support, Narcissus indeed stood up.
Peter saw that Narcissus was still somewhat reliant on the support of her daughters and signaled Lana to let go of her hand.
Lana slowly released her grasp.
Upon receiving the signal from her elder sister, Lily also let go.
Of course, though they let go of their grasp, the sisters were ready to offer support any time.
However, their preparation was obviously unnecessary, as Narcissus, who stood there, seemed dazed by her newfound ability to stand. She was entirely unaware that her daughters had let go and simply stood there in a daze.
Glancing over at Narcissus, Peter smiled and said, "Congratulations, Madam. You can now stand up!"
"Mom, you really can stand up!"
Tears flowed down Lana’s cheeks once again.
Lily, on the other hand, stared wide-eyed at her mother, too astonished to react
Having heard Peter’s words, Narcissus awakened from her daze and looked at Peter, asking, "Am I really standing up?"
Peter smiled and said, "Your legs are healed; they’re completely fine now!"
At that moment, Narcissus broke down in tears, overwhelmed by happiness. She stood there, tears streaming down her face.
Since she had fallen, Narcissus had been longing to stand every day, only to experience failure and devastation time and time again. Her entire being had collapsed mentally and physically. If not for her two daughters who depended on her, she might have even considered suicide. In her mind, after her daughters became adults, she would find a way to end her own life, ensuring she would no longer burden them.
When all hope seemed lost, Peter suddenly appeared and enabled her to stand up once more. This stark contrast brought forth the overwhelming emotions that had been buried deep within her heart.
The Jackson sisters rushed into Narcissus’s embrace, and the three were reduced to tears.
Witnessing this outpouring of love within the family, Peter went to pick up his backpack, not disturbing them. He walked out of the house.
At that moment, Peter felt a great sense of satisfaction, the joy of saving a person and filling a family with happiness.
Helping others truly is a joyful thing!
Upon leaving the house, Peter realized that it was already late night. The starlight twinkled, and the moon shone brightly that day.
"Grandfather, why are you here?"
Peter unexpectedly saw his grandfather standing there in the moonlight.
"Peter, have you healed Narcissus?"
"Grandfather, you knew about it?"
"I intended to check up on you a while ago, but then I saw her standing. It’s great, Narcissus has suffered these past few years. Ah, it’s so good that she can stand up now!"
Only then did Peter realize that he had used up his True Qi healing Narcissus, which was why he hadn’t noticed his grandfather standing outside.
"I used medicine to cure her."
Alvin Brown said, "Peter, your abilities are good, but you need to be cautious. Sometimes, having too high a reputation can bring trouble. I don’t know where you’ve learned so much knowledge, but you should not be too flamboyant with your deeds. Being low-key will be better for your growth." Alvin knew the significance of Peter’s ability to heal Narcissus and worried for his grandson.
Peter then felt the love and concern from his grandfather and nodded, "Grandfather, I understand."
"Good. I’ll inform Narcissus about not revealing who healed her legs. This way, not too many people will come to you for treatment. I presume the medicine you have is also precious and cannot be used indefinitely. There are so many people in the country, and you cannot heal them all!"
Peter silently agreed, knowing that he didn’t have many Lingcao herbs, and it would be best to be discreet about it.
"Grandfather, I understand."
Alvin Brown smiled, "In anything you do, you ought to consider the opportunities and the consequences. If the opportunity arises, do it; if not, let it go. The human heart is the most difficult to measure. People will be grateful when you help them, but when you can’t, their attitude may change. You’re still young; you’ll understand after experiencing more."
It was rare for a person like Alvin Brown to speak such words, and Peter knew that his grandfather was worried for him. Deeply touched, he felt even more grateful.
