Chapter 188: 184 Shocking!
**
A few minutes later, Xia Ye, carrying a rather antique-looking small medicine chest, got into Xia Yuzheng’s car with Xu He.
It contained her recently purchased treasures from online shopping.
Xia Ye’s medical skills had been witnessed by both Xia Yuzheng and Xu He. freēwēbnovel.com
Xu He’s previous ailments, which others couldn’t cure, were healed by Xia Ye.
So when Madame Jiang fainted, they didn’t hesitate and immediately took their daughter there.
Even on the way there, they somewhat relaxed, oddly feeling that as soon as Little Tiangao arrived, Madame Jiang would quickly regain consciousness.
They had considerable confidence in their daughter’s medical skills.
While they were confident, the situation at the old mansion was another story...
At this moment, Madame Jiang was laying flat on the large bed in Qiao Yufen’s bedroom.
Xia Yourong, who had just been sedated, was lying in the next room.
The family doctor of the Xia family was running back and forth between the two rooms, soaking his clothes with sweat despite the summer heat.
The family doctor was the same one who came monthly to check on Xu He’s health.
Qiao Yufen, standing by the window, had made a call to Madame Jiang’s relatives. She had initially not wanted to make the call, fearing that letting the relatives know that the elderly lady had fainted in their home would bring about unfavorable opinions of them even if they didn’t know what had happened.
But the family doctor insisted on being informed about Madame Jiang’s condition and medical history, prompting Qiao Yufen to reluctantly make the call.
As expected, Madame Jiang’s son, upon hearing his mother had fainted, replied with a puzzled tone, "My mother has been in good health recently, and she hasn’t had any issues for many years, which is why we were comfortable letting her go to the Capital City. How did she faint the moment she arrived at your place? Could it be that you all..."
Qiao Yufen hurriedly denied it, "No, no, she must have gotten sick due to travel fatigue. Don’t worry, we’ve already called the best doctor and she should wake up soon."
Her son hesitated for a while before replying, "Then... then please trouble Madame Qiao, and when my mother wakes up, please have her call me immediately. If not, I will hurry over to see..."
Qiao Yufen quickly reassured him, "Don’t worry, don’t worry, as soon as she wakes up, I’ll let you know immediately. You’re busy with work on your end, so there’s no need to rush over."
After the call, when Madame Jiang’s regular medications were sent over, Qiao Yufen walked back and forth by the window, anxiously peering outside, "Xu He went to fetch an expert, why hasn’t she returned yet?"
It was urgent to revive Madame Jiang first and then have Xiaorong properly apologize to her. If word of this got back to Hai City, things could blow up.
What was meant to be a good opportunity to bond with Madame Jiang not only slipped through their fingers but ended like this.
Xiaorong also seemed oddly afflicted, almost as if cursed. When the expert arrived, they had to have him check on Xiaorong too.
When Xu Qing heard a car outside, she quickly said, "Old Madam, the expert should be here!"
Qiao Yufen, aided by Xu Qing, personally went out to meet them.
Surprisingly, upon exiting the door, she saw Xia Ye getting out of the car with a medicine chest.
Qiao Yufen, Xu Qing: ...
Following them out of the car were Xia Yuzheng and Xu He.
Qiao Yufen, craning her neck towards the car door, thought the expert would be the last to step out...
But after Xia Yuzheng got out, he simply closed the car door, pressed the lock with a ’beep,’ and walked over with Xia Ye towards them.
?
Why had they brought Xia Ye to add to her trouble when she had asked them to find an expert?
Did they want her to lose more face in front of Madame Jiang?!
As the group approached the doorway, Xia Yuzheng and Xu He had just stepped over the threshold when Qiao Yufen immediately extended her hand to stop the lagging Xia Ye.
"What are you doing here?"
Xia Ye tapped the medicine chest and frowned, "To treat Madame Jiang."
Xu He said, "Mom, please let Little Tiangao go in. If we delay any more, it won’t be good."
Qiao Yufen had no idea what was on her mind every day, "Do you know what you are saying? How much could it cost to hire a specialist? What do you mean by bringing her here to fool around? If Mrs. Jiang really has an incident, not only Xiaorong will be in trouble, but our Xia Family will also suffer..."
Xu He wanted to retort, but Xia Yuzheng stepped forward first with a firm attitude.
Without wasting words, he pushed aside Qiao Yufen’s hand that was blocking Xia Ye, "Mom, let Yeye go in first, we’ll explain to you later. She has treated Xiaohe before, and she is much more capable than you think."
He decisively dropped the matter and directly pulled his daughter by the hand into the room.
Seeing her brother-in-law so assertive, Xu Qing didn’t dare to speak, but she remembered that the Chewing Candy she had found for Xiaorong to aid in studying was supposedly made by Xia Ye.
Could it be that her niece really knew some medical skills?
Xu Qing clenched her hand and followed them into the room.
Whether Mrs. Jiang would wake up was crucial to her daughter’s future, and her daughter’s future was linked to hers...
In any case, seeking a specialist now would only further delay things; they had no choice but to treat a dead horse as if it were alive.
The family doctor was also surprised to see Xia Ye arrive, but he said nothing and politely stepped aside.
This young girl had asked him many professional things about medical instruments last time.
He was really curious if she truly understood medical arts.
Xia Ye sat quietly by Mrs. Jiang’s bed, her slender, fair fingers gently resting on Mrs. Jiang’s plump wrist.
The girl slowly closed her eyes, her lips slightly pursed, her expression serious.
Xia Yuzheng’s tone was surprised, unable to resist asking, "Can Little Tiangao also take pulses? Has she taken yours before?"
"Shush," Xu He, afraid that he would disturb Little Tiangao, gestured for him to be quiet.
Xia Yuzheng obediently pursed his lips.
A moment later, Xia Ye opened her eyes and methodically opened the medicine box she had brought with her.
On the top layer were some small medicine preparation tools and a few colorful leaves.
Xu He and Xia Yuzheng nodded confidently.
The medicine from Little Tiangao, everyone who has used it has nothing but praise for it.
The family doctor also stretched his neck curiously to see what was happening here.
Qiao Yufen’s tone was surprised, "Is she going to formulate medicine for Mrs. Jiang? Can this really work?"
Xu Qing’s expression was obscure, "It’s just taking medicine; even if it doesn’t help, it shouldn’t harm, and we have a family doctor here, so there shouldn’t be any need to worry."
Qiao Yufen nodded, "I hope so..."
The word ’so’ had barely been uttered when seeing the action Xia Ye took next, the tone of her voice decisively shifted.
Xia Ye didn’t use the top layer’s medicine preparation tools and leaves and instead directly opened the bottom layer, taking out a small cloth bag, which unfolded on the table to reveal a row of silver needles of various thicknesses and lengths!
In the sunlight, they sparkled blingbling!
Even Xu He and Xia Yuzheng were taken aback.
Seeing Xia Ye dexterously grasp one and move toward Mrs. Jiang’s head.
Qiao Yufen reached out to stop her, "Yeye! Stop!"
At that moment, as if in slow motion extended endlessly, just as Qiao Yufen’s hand was halfway there, Xia Ye swiftly, fiercely, and accurately plunged the needle into Mrs. Jiang’s fontanel.
Everyone gasped in unison.
By the time they reacted.
’Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!’
Five silver needles were already neatly aligned atop Mrs. Jiang’s head.
Like a peacock fanning its tail—
