Chapter 410: Chapter 410
Jiang Xiaoxiao came to the ward.
In the ICU, Xiao Cheng’s thin and small figure under the blanket looked very heart-wrenching.
So frail that it made people’s hearts ache.
The child was still in a coma.
Even , looking at him made Xu Meng even more distressed, seeing her son now.
As a mother, she wished she could bear all of this for him.
Jiang Xiaoxiao checked carefully. Actually, Xiao Cheng’s surgery was very successful. No matter what, the surgeons at He Ren Hospital are absolutely top-notch, plus the surgical and medical directors Mr. Feng invited that night definitely gathered all the elites.
Unfortunately, the child’s body was too weak, compounded by congenital diseases.
This caused the probability of complications when recovering later to be much higher than others, and he simply could not withstand the torment of complications.
This body was almost already hollowed out.
Just like Mr. Feng said, with this kind of body, not to mention having heart surgery, even just enduring won’t last for a few days.
Xu Meng looked eagerly at Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Over these three days, more than ten doctors had been in and out of the ward.
But each one’s answer was very despairing.
If it weren’t for clinging to a sliver of hope, she wouldn’t need to be so humble to Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Jiang Xiaoxiao sighed, seeing the child in this state. How could she bear not to save this child?
Xu Meng’s face turned pale instantly.
Wu Fei was also nervous. Was Jiang Xiaoxiao also helpless?
People say there’s always a way out, so why is it so hard for their family just to live?
"Xiao Xiao! Really no hope?"
Xu Meng couldn’t help covering her mouth, collapsing into Wu Pingjing’s arms crying.
Wu Pingjing held back his inner sorrow, comforting his wife.
"It’s okay, it’s okay."
Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled gently.
"You misunderstood, I didn’t say this child can’t be saved."
Wu Pingjing blinked, Xu Meng suddenly sat up, eyes fixed on Jiang Xiaoxiao, tears still on her face, but her astonished expression was undeniable.
"There’s hope, right? Xiao Xiao, there’s hope, right?"
If this were a lie right now, she’d still be willing to believe it.
Jiang Xiaoxiao nodded, "I can only say you’re very lucky, the child’s condition is not too late. Moreover, it’s me you encountered, if I didn’t have this ancestral secret remedy, I wouldn’t dare guarantee this. But, it seems fate brought us together ."
It can be treated, if my special peach remedy couldn’t cure it,
then no one in this world can cure it.
Xu Meng smiled, hugging Wu Pingjing, laughing and jumping like a little girl.
"Pingjing, did you hear that? She said he can be saved, he can be saved!"
Wu Pingjing nodded, it had been so many days since he’d seen his wife smile.
Wu Fei also rushed over.
"Xiao Xiao, really can be saved? We are friends, just tell me the truth in private, I can explain to Uncle and Aunt."
Wu Fei was afraid Jiang Xiaoxiao was just saying it to comfort her aunt, because if any doctor said something positive, her aunt would cry like it’s the end of the world.
Everyone had a look of sympathetic compassion on their face, she was afraid Jiang Xiaoxiao might feel soft-hearted.
At that time, if she bears such a responsibility, even though her aunt seems lucid right now, if her brother really didn’t make it, her aunt might go mad.
Once that happens, staying rational would be out of the question, she might push all the blame on Jiang Xiaoxiao.
When pain reaches the extreme, there needs to be a place for venting, Wu Fei feared Jiang Xiaoxiao might become the scapegoat.
Jiang Xiaoxiao replied seriously.
"I wouldn’t joke with a life. If it can be cured, it can be cured. If it cannot be, then it cannot. Your brother’s condition can still be treated now."
Jiang Xiao faces life with strong medical ethics.
Wu Fei was truly relieved, knowing Jiang Xiaoxiao was someone who spoke frankly and never exaggerated boastfully.
Wu Pingjing and Xu Meng calmed down, Xu Meng had already wiped her tears.
"I cannot guarantee one hundred percent, but I can say that the state of the child’s health can be improved. Our ancestral secret remedy has absolute efficacy for patients with frail bodies. It’s just that this child has been ill for so long, I’m not sure how long it will take.
So you also need to be mentally prepared."
Jiang Xiaoxiao said this because even her peach remedy couldn’t take effect immediately.
The efficacy of the peach remedy is absolute, but Jiang Xiaoxiao cannot let it show results instantly.
That would be too miraculous and attract envy, more importantly, the child’s body is indeed as she described, already riddled with holes.
Even if the peach remedy works, its effect might not be the same as with ordinary people. Jiang Xiaoxiao also needed to control the dosage, letting others perceive gradual improvement, rather than sudden miraculous results.
That might not be the effect she wanted.
Xu Meng and Wu Pingjing nodded, "No worries, we understand what you mean, as long as there is an effect, even if it takes years, we have the patience to wait."
The couple thought Jiang Xiaoxiao mentioned needing time was referring to a long period, as long as Jiang Xiaoxiao could guarantee that during this extended period, their son is alive, even if it’s years, for them, it’s enough, equivalently extending Xiao Cheng’s life for many years indirectly.
Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh this time.
"It’s not such a long time, at most it would be about a week to ten days. If it took as long as you suggested, then it wouldn’t be an ancestral secret remedy."
Jiang Xiaoxiao’s words took the couple by surprise, their astonishment came naturally due to time.
If it were a week to ten days, that would be a huge joyful news for them.
The child had already found a heart donor.
Time could not be delayed that long, preparations for surgery should have already been underway.
Initially intended for surgery within about ten days, but who would have thought the child’s current physical condition could not withstand surgery.
If Jiang Xiaoxiao could guarantee recovery of the child’s physical state in seven to ten days, then he could have heart surgery, which would indeed be double happiness.
"Thank you, thank you very much!"
Wu Pingjing and Xu Meng were genuinely grateful.
If not for being stopped, Xu Meng would almost kneel down.
Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled, "Don’t thank me so soon, the child hasn’t recovered yet, you’re thanking me this early, aren’t you afraid of unforeseen events later? Let’s do this, I’ll head back to the ward first, the medicine needed from the ancestral secret remedy, coincidentally, I still have some at home, today it’s definitely not feasible.
Tomorrow morning, I’ll have someone bring it over."
Even if Jiang Xiaoxiao had it, she couldn’t bring it out now.
Xu Meng anxiously said, "I can send a driver to personally take you to get it now."
She wished Jiang Xiaoxiao could fetch the medicine right away to feed it to her son.
Wu Pingjing coughed, "Xu Meng!"
His wife was too anxious, usually people with such secret remedies have their own temperaments and traits, now forcing them to fetch it.
Afraid Jiang Xiaoxiao might not feel pleased.
Xu Meng quickly realized, awkwardly explaining, "Sorry! I didn’t mean to force you to get it, it’s just... I was too anxious. Sorry."
Jiang Xiaoxiao waved her hand nonchalantly.
"It’s okay, I’ll go back first, see you tomorrow."
Fetching it is definitely not possible now.
She is also someone with principles.
