The two sat on chairs outside the ward, staring blankly at it.
She walked up to the two of them and greeted them, "Uncle Xiao, Auntie, hello."
"I'm Bai Yajing, here to visit Grandpa Xiao."
The elegant woman looked up at her in a daze upon hearing this.
"You're Aunt Xiang's granddaughter?"
Bai Yajing wasn't surprised that she knew her. She smiled slightly and nodded generously, "Yes, my maternal grandmother is Xiang Lan. I brought some medicine for Grandpa Xiao."
Mr. Xiao also saw the bag in her hand and was somewhat relieved. "Thank you for thinking of me. If your Grandpa Xiao were awake, he would definitely be happy..."
He looked terrible. He had lost his son overnight, and now his father had collapsed. He was already in poor health, and he was barely holding on.
Bai Yajing noticed this and stepped forward. "Uncle Xiao, do you believe me? I can show you."
Mr. Xiao smiled kindly and extended his hand. "Of course I believe you, young comrade. I've heard the old man mention that your medical skills are a true inheritance from Aunt Xiang! Thank you for your help!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao's mother looked at her nervously.
"I'm counting on you, young comrade."
Bai Yajing nodded, sat down naturally, and reached out to take his pulse.
A moment later, her brows furrowed even more deeply.
The two people watching were deeply concerned. Xiao's mother wanted to ask, but was afraid of disturbing her.
Bai Yajing withdrew her hand, carefully choosing her words, "Uncle Xiao was born prematurely, and his body did not develop well in the womb. He needs to be well cared for and cannot withstand any stimulation."
Make sure to get plenty of rest, avoid extreme highs and lows, and maintain a cheerful mood; this is more effective than any medicine.
In times of scarcity of medical resources, premature babies are prone to death, let alone when Xiao's father was born. He had a congenital heart defect, and one can only imagine how much effort his family put into raising him to this age.
With red eyes, Xiao's mother said, "Yes, that's why the family didn't let your Uncle Xiao join the army."
They usually take good care of her, but this time…
She couldn't continue speaking.
Her husband was very talented, but he was in poor health, so she only had one son, Xiao Che, all these years.
But this son is gone too...
The couple both looked utterly sorrowful.
Bai Yajing was also helpless. She couldn't very well tell them, "Your son is fine and there's nothing wrong with him at all, can he?"
She got up and borrowed paper and pen from the nurse, and began to write quickly.
"This is a heart-protecting medicine specially developed by my grandmother. You can try it."
I'll go in first to see Grandpa Xiao and take his pulse.
Mr. and Mrs. Xiao accepted the gifts and thanked them repeatedly.
He led her into the ward.
Commander Xiao is still asleep, yes, he's really asleep...
No wonder he didn't call for help despite all the commotion outside.
In the past, I would sit down and take his pulse.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he had simply fallen into a deep sleep from overwork.
But he couldn't tell the truth to the Xiao couple: "It's nothing, Grandpa Xiao just fainted from the shock."
He'll be fine once he wakes up.
The Xiao couple had already heard the diagnosis from Dean Gao, but since the person remained unconscious, they were still worried.
Now that Bai Yajing said everything was alright once she woke up, the two of them felt a little relieved.
Thank you!
"Thank you, young comrade."
Bai Yajing waved her hand dismissively and said, "Grandpa Xiao helped my family, it's only right. Since there's nothing else, I'll go back to work now."
"Alright, alright. Take care, young comrade." The Xiao couple saw her off and then took the prescription to the pharmacy downstairs to buy the medicine.
Commander Xiao has a communications officer guarding his side, so it won't be a problem if they leave for a while.
