Yang Qiaoqiao's heart skipped a beat.
She remembered that it was during this period that Old Master Xia's wife fell seriously ill and then passed away.
But at this time in her previous life, she herself had just suffered a miscarriage and was in very poor health because she had not received proper rest and treatment.
Therefore, I don't remember the exact date when Madam Xia fell seriously ill.
She nervously grabbed Huo Beixiao's hand, "Brother Xiao, let's go inside quickly."
They followed the doctor, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, Old Xia came out to greet them, anxiously pleading with the doctor to quickly go in and save his beloved.
"Grandpa Xia." Yang Qiaoqiao greeted Xia Yuntao before he noticed her.
Xia Yuntao suddenly remembered that they had called to say they were coming to visit, and slapped his forehead, saying, "Oh dear, Qiaoqiao, I'm so sorry, I've been so busy that I completely forgot about your visit."
You and Xiao Huo should quickly come inside and sit down.
Grandma Xia isn't feeling well right now, so I don't have time to keep you company. Please have a seat, and if you need anything, just tell the housekeeper. Don't be shy!
After finishing his sentence in a hurry, Xia Yuntao went upstairs with his cane.
Yang Qiaoqiao quickly took out the gift she had brought and followed.
Inside the room, the doctor had already put Grandma Xia on a ventilator and was performing CPR.
Yang Qiaoqiao had never met Old Mrs. Xia in her previous life.
Looking at the old lady up close now, a sentence suddenly popped into my head: Time never defeats beauty.
Although the old lady on the bed had a full head of white hair and was very thin, her white hair was neatly combed, and she was wearing a well-tailored cheongsam. Even the wrinkles on her face looked exquisite.
Yang Qiaoqiao quickly handed the things she brought to Xia Yuntao, "Grandpa Xia, this is what you asked me to find last time. I found it and brought it to you."
"This is a wild ginseng that I came across by chance; please take it and see if it comes in any use."
Xia Yuntao's cloudy eyes had been fixed on his wife on the bed for a moment.
Upon hearing Yang Qiaoqiao's words, an expression of excitement clearly appeared on his face.
He took the things from Yang Qiaoqiao's hands, and tears welled up in his eyes. "Qiaoqiao, thank you, thank you so much."
At the same time, the doctor in charge of the rescue heard Yang Qiaoqiao's words and quickly said, "Comrade Xia, if you have any old ginseng, you can give the patient a piece to suck on; it can boost his energy."
In fact, after those ten years, traditional Chinese medicine was suppressed in this land, especially in Shanghai, where not only ordinary people but also many doctors looked down on it.
But it just so happens that the doctor in charge of rescuing Grandma Xia today comes from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, but was forced by circumstances to switch to Western medicine.
He was well aware of the therapeutic effects of century-old ginseng, so he naturally wouldn't refuse to use it at this time.
At this moment, Xia Yuntao didn't bother to be polite with Yang Qiaoqiao. He quickly cut off a piece of ginseng, helped his wife, and put the ginseng into her mouth.
Then, while supporting the old lady's head, he took out the exquisite box that Yang Qiaoqiao had given him earlier.
Wiping away her tears, she said, her voice choked with emotion, "Shuyi, your family heirloom has been found! Please take a look..."
With Mr. Xia's repeated calls and the doctor's persistent efforts, the old lady actually managed to open her eyes with great difficulty.
When the old lady saw the exquisite plum vase in Mr. Xia's hand, her eyes, which had lost their light, lit up again.
She shakily raised her hand and carefully touched the bottle, tears streaming down her face. "Good, it's found. Now that it's found, I can face my ancestors with a clear conscience..."
The old lady is frail and has just woken up, yet she spoke such a long string of words in a fit of emotion.
He soon fell into a deep sleep due to exhaustion.
But the doctor said that since the old lady had woken up, the danger was over.
He couldn't say how much longer the old lady would live after surviving this danger.
The doctor concluded by saying, "Mr. Xia, you can continue to give that old ginseng to your mother. Just cut it into slices and let her hold it in her mouth until it loses its flavor, then she can chew it and swallow it."
If the old lady recovers even better, we can use that old ginseng to make chicken soup and pigeon soup for her to drink, to replenish her qi and blood.
Xia Yuntao nodded repeatedly and thanked the doctor.
After seeing the doctor off, Mr. Xia excitedly grasped Yang Qiaoqiao's hand, "Qiaoqiao, thank you so much this time. If you hadn't come just in time, my old woman..."
Xia Yuntao felt waves of grief as he thought about how his wife had almost passed away.
"Qiaoqiao, the plum vase that my husband's family has passed down is priceless to us, and the old ginseng you sent is also something that is hard to come by."
I shouldn't be talking to you about money, but if I don't, I really don't know how to express my gratitude.
"Here's what we'll do: transfer my 50% stake in the duck shop to you, and I'll return this 100,000 yuan remittance slip. In a couple of days, once your grandmother is better, I'll transfer the ownership of the old villa to you."
Yang Qiaoqiao waved her hands repeatedly, "Grandpa Xia, no, I can't accept these. You've already helped us so much..."
Before Yang Qiaoqiao could finish refusing, Xia Yuntao shoved the 100,000 yuan remittance slip into her hand. "Take it!"
Yang Qiaoqiao wanted to decline again, but Xia Yuntao said seriously, "Qiaoqiao, there's an old saying: 'One should not refuse a gift from one's elders.' If you keep doing this, I'll get angry!"
Helpless, Yang Qiaoqiao could only put the remittance slip away.
In the evening, the old lady, having slept well and regained her energy, woke up.
