After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 1027

1027 Ginseng Wine
The doctor did not know how to face Xia Wen. Any other ordinary person in Xia Mao’s condition would not have been able to hold on for so long. It had already been five days since the accident, but Xia Mao was still tenaciously alive. Perhaps Xia Mao was waiting for Xia Wen and the rest to arrive so that he could see them one last time.

Medically speaking, it was a miracle that Xia Mao was still alive.

Qiao Mei stood silently behind them. When she heard that Xia Mao was still alive, she was finally able to relax.
“Then can we go and see him now?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Yes, but you have to be quiet and not affect the patient,” the doctor said earnestly.

!!
The doctor brought them to the tent in the center of the camp. There were many soldiers guarding outside and many doctors inside taking care of Xia Mao. They monitored Xia Mao’s condition 24 hours a day so that they could administer treatment immediately if there was any issue. They made sure that they would not miss out on the golden window for emergency treatment.

“He’s still conscious. If you talk to him, he might be able to hear you,” the doctor whispered.

Qiao Mei hurriedly walked forward to check on Xia Mao. The originally high-spirited and energetic person was now lying on the hospital bed. Xia Mao was as fragile as a piece of paper at the moment. It was hard to imagine that a person could lose so much weight in such a short period of time. Xia Mao was unable to eat at all and was being kept alive by the intravenous drips. The moment he was disconnected from the drips and oxygen, he would die immediately.

Xia Wen and Xia He completely did not know what to do. They just stood quietly next to Xia Mao and wept silently. In their memories, Xia Mao had always been the hero whom they admired and aspired to become. Even if the sky collapsed, Xia Mao would always be there to hold it up.

This was the first time they ever saw Xia Mao looking so weak. Only then did they realize that Xia Mao was getting on in years and was at the age when he needed their care and protection. He was no longer that omnipotent hero from the old days.

Qiao Mei clenched her fists tightly and tried her best to calm herself down. She slowly placed her right hand on Xia Mao’s wrist to feel his pulse and quietly sensed his vitality. She suddenly discovered that Xia Mao seemed to have her energy in his body, which gave her a shock.

Back then, she had distributed the 1,000-year-old ginseng juice to everyone. For the sake of convenience, she had made the containers in the shape of a small medicine bottle which could be worn around the neck like a pendant. Could it be that Xia Mao had listened to her and carried this medicine bottle with him everywhere he went?

Qiao Mei hurriedly walked out of the tent and looked at the doctor anxiously as she asked, “When you were saving my father, did you find any glass shards on his chest or in his body?”

The doctor replied without any hesitation, “Yes, we did. There were indeed some glass shards found near the wound and also a little bit in the body. We’ve removed everything. We still don’t know why these things appeared and we’re still investigating the reason.”

He remembered this matter very clearly. After investigating for so long, they still could not find the answer. They even suspected that it was some kind of new weapon which the enemy developed and they had handed it over to the R&D team for research.

Qiao Mei did not wait for the doctor to finish speaking. She quickly returned to the room and opened her bag to take out the medicinal wine. This medicinal wine was not much different from the usual 1,000-year-old ginseng juice. If she put a drop or two in a glass, it would look dark green. However, inside the bottle, the liquid looked like ink and it was impossible for anyone to be able to tell what it was.

Ordinary people would not be able to see the luster of this ginseng. Only Qiao Mei could see the golden sheen on it.

Xia Mao could never have imagined that the reason for him surviving for so many days was because of the few drops of 1,000-year-old ginseng juice. It was fortunate that the bullet had accidentally shattered the bottle, but it was also very dangerous at the same time. If the glass shards had cut through his heart, even an immortal would not be able to save Xia Mao.

“Qiao Mei, what is this?” Xia He asked as she looked at Qiao Mei nervously.

“Ginseng wine.” After saying that, Qiao Mei wanted to pry open Xia Mao’s mouth and pour the wine into his mouth. Xia Wen and Xia He were so frightened that they quickly stopped her. Even the doctors outside were so shocked by what she did that they rushed in.

Qiao Mei thought for a moment and said, “Uh… this is a remedy from my hometown. This is wine made with ginseng and it’s very useful for treating illnesses and saving lives.”
