Chapter 283 Even My Mother Was Not Left Behind
Gu Xiaoxi didn't notice the two guys who were watching the wind on the mountain. After she finished setting up the formation, she walked around the village.
When we arrived at the village entrance near the river, we found the Meng family and several men who had left here during the day.
Meng Jia hadn't expected to meet this girl that night. Knowing that she was a distinguished guest of the Quanjia Village, he took the initiative to step forward and bowed to greet her: "Miss Xiaoxi, why are you still awake so late?"
"You guys didn't sleep either. Did you not go back, or did you go back and come back again?" Gu Xiaoxi asked jokingly.
The Meng family said with a smile on their face: “It’s not because we are worried that you won’t wait for us, so we will come back as soon as we go.
This time I also brought my father with me, and we will go to see the old patriarch when daybreak comes."
"You brought your father here too. Didn't you say your father was seriously ill?" Gu Xiaoxi was shocked when she heard this.
"But, but, my father said that this can show the sincerity of our village." Meng Jia scratched his head stupidly.
"Where are the people?" Gu Xiaoxi was a little anxious.
The Meng family took Gu Xiaoxi for a walk and saw the old man lying under a big tree, with an old woman guarding him.
Gu Xiaoxi...
Hold your forehead!
What a good son he is. Not only did he carry his seriously ill father here in the middle of the night, he also carried his mother with him.
She hurried forward to check on the condition of the old patriarch Meng. She guessed that he had been exposed to the wind and his head was hot.
She stood up and said excitedly, "Oh my God! Uncle Meng, you are so awesome! Hurry up and carry the people with me into the village."
"My dad, my dad..." The Meng family was a little panicked when they saw Miss Xiaoxi so excited.
"Hurry up and move the old man to another place. I will take a good look at him." Gu Xiaoxi was so anxious that her throat was about to burst.
Hey hey...
After hearing this, the Meng family asked their clansmen to carry the person on their backs and follow Miss Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi led them into the village from the center of the formation, and then took them directly to the home of the old patriarch Quan.
All the old clan leaders were woken up in the middle of the night. They heard that the Meng family had carried Old Meng and his wife down the mountain. They were so scared that they hurried to see what was going on.
After Gu Xiaoxi brought the people over, he went to find an empty room and asked the Meng family to carry the old patriarch Meng in and put him down first.
"You guys go out and wait, I'll take a look." Gu Xiaoxi drove them in, and then told Ying San and Ying Si who followed them: "Don't disturb me until I open the door."
"Okay, girl!" Shadow Three and Shadow Four responded and stood guard at the door like door gods.
When the old patriarch Quan saw Miss Xiaoxi treating Old Meng, he wanted to invite the Meng family and others to sit in the main hall.
"I won't go. I have to stay with my father!" The Meng family insisted on not leaving.
Old Mrs. Meng stood there worriedly and was unwilling to leave.
There was no other way, so the old patriarch Quan could only ask people to move out the chairs, and everyone sat in the corridor and waited.
Old Geda lived with the elders of the Quan clan. Seeing their worried expressions, he walked over and persuaded them, "Don't worry, Miss Xiaoxi is a very good doctor.
When she was out there, many seriously ill patients came to her for treatment, and she cured them all.”
"Miss Xiaoxi's medical skills are so amazing?" Clan leader Quan only knew that Miss Xiaoxi knew medical skills, but he didn't know she was so amazing.
"That's not true. The fee she charges for treating patients outside is not cheap, and it depends on her mood. If she's not in a good mood and you pay her, she won't treat you."
Moreover, she knows how to grow medicinal herbs, and this year she even led our village in growing them," Uncle Geda continued.
Ying San continued, "When my master's life was on the verge of death, it was Miss Xiaoxi who saved him."
The old tribe leader Quan asked curiously, "Aren't you Miss Xiaoxi's subordinates?"
"It wasn't like that before. Later, our master asked us to protect Miss Xiaoxi, so we stayed with her." Ying San explained.
After hearing what they said, Mrs. Meng's heart, which had been raised halfway, finally settled down a little.
In the room, Gu Xiaoxi brought Patriarch Meng into the space and asked the robot to help give Patriarch Meng a systematic examination.
Examination revealed that the poison in Patriarch Meng's body was indeed not completely cleared, and some of it had seeped into his blood, so Patriarch Meng was often drowsy.
It is precisely because of this kind of torture that Patriarch Meng’s health is getting worse day by day.
She first gave Patriarch Meng some antipyretic medicine, and when the fever subsided, she opened the door.
The door was opened and several people rushed out.
"Xiaoxi, how is Lao Meng?" asked the old patriarch Quan worriedly.
"The fever has subsided, and he's fine for now. However, what we're doing now is just treating the symptoms, not the root cause. If he wants to fully recover, the remaining toxins in his body must be cleared away.
Otherwise, if he continues like this, he will often be in a confused state, unable to absorb the good things he eats, and his body will not last long. "Gu Xiaoxi explained the situation of Patriarch Meng to everyone.
Upon hearing that the old man couldn't hold on for much longer, Mrs. Meng was so shocked that she leaned back. Fortunately, the Meng family supported her.
"Grandma, don't worry too much. The old man is not hopeless." Gu Xiaoxi saw that Grandma Meng's face turned pale with fright.
"Miss, do you have a way to save my father?" Meng Jia thought she had misheard.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded, then said, "I can save him, but I don't have enough medicine to prepare the antidote. I need to see what else is missing."
Plop plop!
A group of people knelt in front of him, and the first one to kneel was Granny Meng.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Get up and talk, get up and talk." Gu Xiaoxi was frightened by the scene.
Ying San and Ying Si hurried forward to help lift the man up.
Gu Xiaoxi found that Granny Meng was so thin that she was just skin and bones, which made her feel uncomfortable.
"Ever since my father almost died last time, my mother has been taking care of him day and night. She used to be quite plump, but she became so thin in less than half a year." Meng Jia also felt sorry for his own mother. He was worried that if his father couldn't hold on, his mother would probably follow him.
"Mother-in-law, don't worry. As long as the toxins in the old man's blood are cleared out and he takes good care of himself, he will get better." Gu Xiaoxi comforted Mother Meng.
Granny Meng looked at Gu Xiaoxi with tears in her eyes. She was half-believing and half-doubting what he said, but she also felt that she saw some hope.
Gu Xiaoxi turned and entered the room, woke up the old patriarch Meng, and asked the mother and son to go in and take a look.
When Patriarch Meng saw his son, he asked, "Where is your father Quan?"
"Here, here, why are you in such a hurry? I told you I would wait for you." Patriarch Quan said as he trotted to the bedside.
"Thank you, brother. To be honest, we have always dreamed of going down the mountain so that we can grow our own food. We are in the wrong... Thank you, brother, for your help. Woo woo..." As the old patriarch Meng spoke, he began to cry.
"Stop, stop, stop. If you want to be lively and energetic, don't get excited." Gu Xiaoxi advised worriedly.
After hearing this, Patriarch Meng smiled helplessly: "Little girl, don't try to fool an old man like me. I know that I am at the end of my rope now."
