Chapter 427 429 Condition

Zhong Minglou had just persuaded Xia Tian to pretend that he had not met Xia's parents after the apocalypse. Now the fact that Xia's parents were dead was revealed by Zhong Mingli. Xia Kai didn't seem to want to say more to Zhong Minglou, but wanted to ask Xia Tian directly.

How dare Zhong Minglou take Xia Kai to see Xia Tian now? Xia Tian doesn't know the situation here at the moment. If they go according to the story they had agreed on before, the inconsistency between the two statements will definitely arouse Xia Kai's suspicion. What they said were lies in the first place, how could they stand up to scrutiny?

"Brother-in-law, where is my sister? She's not gone either, is she?" Seeing Zhong Minglou silent and with a stiff expression, Xia Kai's face turned grim.

"There are still some now, but they will be gone soon." Zhong Mingli was used to being spoiled by her family. She was very dissatisfied with Xia Kai's attitude and muttered with a pout.

Xia Kai looked at Zhong Minglou and Zhong Mingli, who had dark faces, and asked, "What did you say?"

Seeing that Xia Kai was very emotional and Zhong Minglou and his sister avoided his gaze, Chen Lishu winked at the team members behind him, who nodded secretly and silently blocked the way for Zhong Minglou and his sister.

"Hey, girl, what do you mean by what you just said? How is your sister-in-law now?" Chen Lishu walked up to Zhong Mingli and asked calmly.

"My sister-in-law is sick, Brother Xia Kai, why are you angry? My sister-in-law has been bedridden, and our family has not abandoned her and has been taking care of her." Zhong Mingli looked at the change in Xia Kai's expression and knew that she had said something wrong, so she immediately defended herself in a very aggrieved tone.

Chen Lishu was amused by Zhong Mingli's condescending tone, "In other words, you think your sister-in-law should be abandoned because she is sick?" Chen Lishu was abandoned by his teammates when he was sick. If he had not met Rong Xianxian by chance, he would have been dead by now.

"I" Zhong Mingli instinctively wanted to explain herself, but was pulled back by Zhong Minglou.

Zhong Minglou really didn't want his sister to speak anymore. A good thing tasted wrong in her mouth. "Xia Kai, your sister is sick and has been sick for several months. I hired a doctor for her and she has been taking medicine, but there is no improvement. Your brother-in-law's ability is limited. Now that she has met you, maybe her illness will improve. Can you hire a better doctor to see your sister?" Zhong Minglou thought that Xia Tian's physical condition could not be concealed, so he might as well take the opportunity of asking Xia Kai to help hire a doctor. He hurried back to discuss with Xia Tian what to say about the matter of Xia's parents.

"Take us to see her condition first!" Chen Lishu said.

Zhong Minglou had no choice but to take Xia Kai and others to their camp.

"Xia Tian, look who's here?" Zhong Minglou brought Xia Kai and others directly to the tent where Xia Tian lived. As soon as he entered the door, he naturally helped Xia Tian who was lying on the couch.

Xia Kai felt very uncomfortable when he saw Xia Tian, who looked pale and haggard. In his impression, Xia Tian had always been bright and beautiful.

Zhong Yingying rushed over excitedly, "Uncle." Zhong Yingying was raised by Xia's parents. Xia Kai failed to get into college and stayed at home for a while after graduating from high school. Although he went home less often after working in other places, Zhong Yingying was not unfamiliar with this uncle based on her childhood memories.

"Yingying, cough, cough, cough!" Xia Tian called out to Zhong Yingying and started coughing vigorously.

Zhong Yingying quickly returned to Xia Tian and patted her back.

"Sister, where are our parents? Aren't they with you?" Xia Kai asked. Zhong Mingli said that their parents were eaten by a monster, but Xia Kai didn't want to believe it.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Zhong Minglou couldn't say anything to Xia Tian, and couldn't even make some small movements. However, they had been married for many years, and just by looking at Zhong Minglou's expression, Xia Tian knew that something seemed to have happened.

Seeing Xia Kai asking, Xia Tian didn't know how to answer. After calling Zhong Yingying back, she started crying. Xia Tian thought about her dead parents, her weak body, and the days when Zhong Minglou ignored her and her. She cried and was heartbroken, and listening to her reminded people of the sad things in their hearts.

"Xia Tian, the dead cannot be resurrected. It's all my fault that I didn't protect my parents well. You're not in good health, and you won't be able to bear it if you cry any more." Zhong Minglou said with both self-blame and worry.

With Zhong Minglou's words, Xia Tian knew that it seemed that they had already told others about the death of Xia's parents. Needless to say, it must have been Zhong Mingli who let the secret slip.

"Sister, my parents are really gone. What on earth happened?" Xia Kai asked with a sad face.

"Xia Kai, your sister has been very sad because of our parents' matter. Now her health is like this. Can you please get a doctor for her first?" Zhong Minglou shouted angrily.

"That's right." Zhong Mingli rolled her eyes.

"I have sent someone to tell Sister Rong about what's happening here. She should be here soon." Chen Lishu whispered to Xia Kai.

Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived. As soon as Shen Lishu finished speaking, Rong Xianxian's voice came over, "Kaikai, Lishu, are you in there?"

"Sister Rong." When Xia Kai introduced Rong Xianxian to Zhong Minglou and his sister, he simply told them that she was the doctor in their team.

Rong Xianxian felt Xia Tian's pulse, looked at her limbs and face, and sighed in her heart. Xia Tian's liver and lungs were damaged, her kidney qi was exhausted, her qi and blood were deficient, and her yin and yang were separated. Although there are no ultrasound, MRI and other examination methods to determine the extent of her kidney failure, judging from her pulse, I'm afraid there is no way to save her.

"How is it? Sister Rong, what disease does my sister have?" Xia Kai asked with some concern.

"Can you let me see the medicines she used to take?" Rong Xianxian waved her hand and asked Zhong Minglou.

"This is the prescription a doctor wrote for us when we were in the safe zone. However, we couldn't even eat at the time, and we couldn't afford some of the medicines in this prescription, so they may not be effective, which led to the delay." Zhong Minglou said with a sad face.

Rong Xianxian looked at the prescription handed over by Zhong Minglou. It was an ordinary prescription for dispelling wind and cold, relieving cough and reducing phlegm. Judging from this prescription, when one first got sick in the summer, it was just a cold and cough. In theory, even if one did not take these medicines, one would slowly get better.

However, even a common cold may develop into pneumonia, nephritis or heart failure. Although the chance is very small, it does exist.

"What were your symptoms when you first fell ill? Did you feel better after taking medicine?" Rong Xianxian asked.

"I caught a cold at first, and then I had a low-grade fever and cough. After taking medicine, the fever gradually went away, but I still had the cough." Xia Tian spoke with some difficulty.

"Has your condition improved after taking the medicine?" Rong Xianxian asked.

"If you want to get treatment, just do it right away. Why are you asking so many questions?" Zhong Mingli muttered in dissatisfaction.
