After Transmigrating, The Fat Wife Made A Comeback! - Chapter 863

863 Having Dreams

Xia He agreed readily. She turned to the doctor and asked, “Doctor, how much does his treatment cost?”

He would recover after applying medicine. The treatment on his entire face would need only around 10 dollars. If they added some ointment and anti-inflammatory medicine, it would cost about 15 dollars.

“Not much, just about 15 to 20 dollars,” the doctor said.

“What about the cost of my brother’s treatment?” Xia He asked.

!!
Under normal circumstances, it was very difficult to discover a head injury immediately. They would need to do a brain CT scan and a blood test to know if there was anything wrong. Otherwise, the doctor would not be able to tell with the naked eye.

In a big hospital, a brain CT scan would cost 200 dollars each time. Moreover, one would need to make an appointment to get a queue number. Only a few hospitals had such large equipment. A small clinic like his did not have it.

“We still have to continue to check on the brain issue. It’s a very long process. The early stage treatment will probably cost about 1,000 dollars, and the special medicine for the brain is very expensive. It’s hard to say. The main thing is to look at the results. Also, it might not even be curable,” the doctor said seriously.

If Xia He did not know that the doctor was just putting on an act together with her, she would really have collapsed to the ground in fear from what he said. If Zhang Wei really turned into a fool after getting beaten up, she did not know how to go home and explain it to Qiao Mei.

“You heard that, right? We don’t want much from you. We’ll just take 1,000 dollars. Let’s consider your medical fees to be 20 dollars. Just deduct the amount off when you pay us,” Xia He said.

Old Madam Fan was unhappy. Her son’s injuries were also on the head! Why was it that the doctor did not give her son a checkup!

“What about my son’s loss of income! Nutrition fees! And compensation for emotional damage! Pay me for all of these!” Old Madam Fan said.

“Auntie, you want nutrition fees? My brother is so young, can you imagine how much nutrition he needs? Will your son live longer or will my brother live longer? You can go and think about it. It’s only 1,000 dollars. We won’t fuss about anything else.” After saying that, Xia He left with Li Gui and Zhang Wei.

A chauffeur from the Xia family had specially come to pick them up. When Xia He arrived at this clinic, she had already asked them to inform the Xia family to send a car to pick them up.

In the car, Xia He could not help but praise Zhang Wei. His acting skills were top-notch even at such a young age! It would be a pity if he did not become an actor.

“Xiao Wei, tell me the truth. Do you really not feel uncomfortable?” Xia He was still a little worried.

“Elder sister Xia He, I’m really fine. It’s just that my wound hurts a little. Everything else is fine. I feel great!” Zhang Wei said with a smile.

Li Gui felt relieved. She was glad that the child was fine, but she did not expect to encounter such an issue. If Xia He had not rushed over in time, they would probably be finished.

“Xiao He, thank you so much. If you hadn’t come today, we don’t know what would have happened to us,” Li Gui said fearfully.

“Auntie, don’t worry. Nothing bad will happen,” Xia He said.

She would get Xia Wen to transfer a few of Xia Mao’s guards over tomorrow and get them to keep an eye on Qiao Mei and Li Gui. She did not want any more such incidents.

Xia He suddenly recalled that Zhang Wei had once used a small wooden stick to spar with Zhang Chao in the courtyard. From the way he moved, it looked like someone had previously given him pointers and it did not look like he was playing around.

If one did not want to be bullied, one must know how to protect oneself. This was something that Xia Xiu had taught her when she was young! Ever since she was young, she had been the little tyrant of the military compound and had bullied all the boys in the compound together with Zheng Yuan.

“Xiao Wei, do you want to become a soldier like your brother-in-law?” Xia He asked.

At the mention of this, Zhang Wei immediately perked up. He widened his eyes and looked at Xia He and asked, “Elder sister Xia He! I do! I even dream about it!”

If he had stayed in the village, Chen Hu would bring him to the unit for training once he reached a suitable age. When the time came and he could pass the physical fitness requirements, he would go and take the exams.

However, after coming to the capital, he did not dare to cause trouble for Qiao Mei. He knew that the Xia family was a military family and that Qiao Mei just needed to say the word to make his dream come true. However, Li Gui had said that he could not ask the Xia family for help even if he ran into any difficulties. Otherwise, the Xia family would look down on Qiao Mei.

“Then can you endure hardships? If you go to the army, you won’t get to go home easily,” Xia He asked.
