Chapter 159 Leaders Come Down to Check
At half past eight, Huo Jingchen woke up.
He stood at the door, quietly watching Xia Mi bandage the wounds of the wounded and carefully instructing them on precautions.
Not long after, he came to his senses and prepared to return to the troops.
"Jingchen, wait for me."
Xia Mi stood up and took care of the last wounded man. She reached into her pocket and felt something warm, which came from the eggs she had just baked.
"You take this with you."
Seeing that it was an egg, Huo Jingchen knew that Xia Mi didn't like boiled eggs, so he took the egg without saying a word.
"Are you done?"
Xia Mi nodded, "It should be considered as such. Just now, Captain Jiang brought people here to set up tents. There are quite a few tents outside now."
"This is the only solution at the moment. The military dormitories can't accommodate too many people."
After taking a look at the sky outside, Huo Jingchen raised his hand and said, "I'm going back to the army first. Take good care of yourself."
"Don't worry, I won't treat myself badly."
Xia Mi responded with a reassuring look and accompanied Huo Jingchen out.
Huo Jingchen left with a crisp back.
Xia Mi heard from the soldier who had just delivered the goods that Zhuifeng Island had been reported in the newspapers, and even the top leaders of Qingcheng would come to express their condolences today.
"Sister Xia Mi, let's go back together."
Zhang Ling took off her white coat and changed back into casual clothes.
Xia Mi hummed, said hello to Zhang Ling, and went to change clothes, asking her to wait. -The moment she got home, she was overwhelmed by fatigue and didn't want to move at all.
She cooked some noodles, ate two bites, and poured the rest to Black Panther.
Black Panther was also very hungry. He finished all the noodles in a few bites and looked at Xia Mi with an unsatisfied look.
Xia Mi had no choice but to get it a little more.
While the black panther was eating, Xia Mi squatted beside it and said, "I promised you the chicken leg. I'll fulfill it in two days. Don't worry, I will definitely give you the chicken leg."
The black panther lowered its head and ate with great relish.
Xia Mi looked at the flooded vegetable field, sighed slightly, and prepared to take a good rest before cleaning up the mess.
She slept until late at night, and when Xia Mi opened her eyes again, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
She went to bed at 11 o'clock in the morning.
It is true that staying up late is harmful to your health. Xia Mi felt that she had no strength in her body and her head was groggy.
She opened the door and pulled the light cord, lighting up the yard.
A lot of rain water has already gone down the vegetable garden, and only a few small puddles remain in the yard.
A gust of cold wind blew over, and Xia Mi couldn't help but shiver.
She sneezed, and before she could recover, she sneezed three or four more times in a row, and her nose was about to start running.
Damn, I'm not catching a cold, am I? Xia Mi raised her hand and touched her forehead with the back of her hand, and found that it was indeed a little hot.
She went into the space and bought a mercury thermometer and cold medicine, and also bought some antipyretic drugs just in case.
While she still had energy, she went to make dinner for Black Panther. Due to his health condition, Black Panther could only eat instant noodles tonight.
After coming out of the kitchen, Xia Mi felt her head getting heavier and her eyelids felt very heavy.
She quickly closed the door, went into the room, lay down and started measuring.
Ten minutes later, she shook the thermometer and found that the silver line had soared to 38.7 degrees.
Xia Mi quickly took the antipyretic medicine and lay down in bed to sleep.
She felt a burning sensation all over her body and it became difficult for her to sleep. She fell into a daze, as if she was awake but couldn't open her eyes.
Jiang Shengmei couldn't help but worry when she saw that Xia Mi's house hadn't turned on the lights yet.
She came to the door with a few buns that she had made in the afternoon.
The door was only half-closed.
When the black panther heard the noise, he barked twice, and only stopped when the person spoke.
"Black Panther, isn't your master back yet?"
After saying that, Jiang Shengmei slapped her forehead and felt that her question was a bit ridiculous. How could a dog know what she was asking?
Black Panther picked at his bowl and wanted to answer Jiang Shengmei by saying that he had finished his meal.
As a result, he was misunderstood as begging for food.
Jiang Shengmei was reluctant to give up the steamed buns, but when she met Black Panther's eyes, she softened her heart and gave one away.
"Only one."
The black panther was stunned for a second, but when he saw there was food to eat, he started eating happily.
Jiang Shengmei pushed the door but couldn't open it.
"Xia Mi, are you home?"
Xia Mi was in a daze when she vaguely heard someone calling her. She opened her eyes and felt a burning pain in them.
"Sister-in-law, I'm at home, I'm resting."
When Jiang Shengmei heard Xia Mi's voice, her heart sank. She thought Xia Mi was still busy in the hospital.
"Have you eaten? Why didn't I see you cooking? I made some buns this afternoon and I'll bring you a few."
"Sister-in-law, please leave it outside. I have a fever and I'm worried about infecting you."
Jiang Shengmei was stunned for a moment, but soon figured it out.
It's easy to catch a cold in this weather, plus I was in contact with so many patients with colds all night last night.
"Then you should have a good rest. I've put the buns at the door, right on your table. You can come out and get them later."
"good."
Xia Mi hummed and turned over, feeling that the condition was even worse than before.
She forced herself to stay awake and took the temperature with the thermometer again. It was already 39, which was a high fever.
Two hours had passed since Xia Mi last took the medicine. She took another pill and then went to the mall to buy some ice packs for cold compresses. Her body temperature dropped quickly.
In her sleep, Xia Mi felt extremely sticky.
I woke up once in the middle of the night and found that the sheets were wet with sweat, and there was a figure imprinted on the bed.
Xia Mi's head also felt much better. - Jiang Shengmei was having breakfast in the morning, but she was worried about Xia Mi.
Seeing that his lover looked worried, Jiang Weidong asked, "What's wrong?"
"Xia Mi had a fever last night. I'm a little worried about her. I don't know if her fever has subsided. I just cooked more porridge. I'll go over to check on her after breakfast."
Jiang Weidong knew that Xia Mi went to the hospital to help last night.
Taking into account the fact that Xia Mi had previously helped capture criminals and made contributions.
"How about asking Jingchen to go back and take a look?"
"He is too busy now. Yesterday, the leaders came to a meeting to resolve this matter. The economic conditions of Zhuifeng Island have suffered a severe loss. It may take two or three years to make up for it."
"So serious?"
Jiang Shengmei didn't expect that several houses collapsed. The houses in the commune were fine. They mainly relied on seafood. How could it be so serious? "Don't think too singularly. Consider many factors. Forget it. I'm going to work."
Jiang Weidong finished his meal in a hurry and went out with his coat.
Jiang Shengmei packed some food and sent it to Xia Mi.
She came to Xia Mi's house, and Black Panther wagged its tail at Jiang Shengmei, thinking that she was here to feed him again, and wagged its tail happily.
Seeing that the steamed buns from last night were still outside, Jiang Shengmei knew that Xia Mi had not come out all night.
"Xia Mi?"
Xia Mi was still asleep. Her fever had almost subsided, so she woke up when Jiang Shengmei called out.
When I woke up, I realized that the buns from last night had not been brought in yet.
Xia Mi packed up in a hurry, left the room and opened the door, "Sister-in-law."
