My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s

Chapter 526: Chapter 520: The Dried Ginseng Chapter 526: Chapter 520: The Dried Ginseng Tang Yuxin clasped the cup in her hands,

then she placed her own cup into Tang Yuxin’s hands.

When she first got it, it was a bit hot, now it was just right, not cold nor hot.

“Thank you,” Tang Yuxin took the cup without any hesitation and drank from it.

She didn’t need to stand on ceremony with Uncle Gu, after all, even though he wasn’t a blood relative, he was almost as good as one.

She had pulled him out of a heap of dead bodies several times before, and this time he had saved her once again.

Their lives were intertwined, a story not meant to be told to outsiders.

After drinking two cups of hot water, Tang Yuxin’s hands and feet started to warm up.

Of course, she didn’t feel as uncomfortable as before.

The snowy weather was truly bothersome.

“Right,” she suddenly remembered something, hastily took off the small cloth bag that was still on her back, opened it, and took something out.

“I dug this up when I was out, it’s a good item.”

All eyes fell on what she held in her hand.

It was a ginseng root about the size of a half an inch, somewhat shriveled but precious nonetheless.

In such a place, it was a huge success to find such a thing.

Although shriveled, it was a life-saving treasure.

Tang Yuxin handed the ginseng to Li Jia,”Use this to brew with snow water,” she also handed her bag to Li Jia,”Cook everything in my bag and feed it to them.”

This was good stuff.

Ginseng is a major tonic.

Combined with the herbs she had gathered, it would fully extract the medical properties of the shriveled ginseng root.

Her Chen-style Rejuvenation Acupuncture Technique, simply put, gives vitality from the outside.

But external vitality, although it could save lives intermittently, couldn’t be used on someone who hadn’t eaten for ten days.

Even if they didn’t die from starvation, they wouldn’t survive.

So, besides external supply, one’s own body must also maintain a level of vitality.

The small, shriveled ginseng root could very well be the life-saving medicine for Liu Guang and Cheng Xu.

With this medicine, they can at least hold on for another ten days.

And ten days should be enough, right?

Li Jia held the shriveled ginseng, teary-eyed with gratitude.

This was something that Tang Yuxin had risked her life to obtain.

She had overestimated Tang Yuxin’s sacrifice.

Tang Yuxin wasn’t so noble or righteous.

She hadn’t expected to fall into the trap, or that her trip outside would be so dangerous.

Had she known the risks, she may not have gone.

She was just an ordinary person, far from noble enough to sacrifice herself for others.

So there was no need to hold her in such high regard.

She was not that good.

Li Jia quietly wiped her tears and quickly went outside to dig up some snow.

She lit a fire and planned to boil the ginseng.

She was anxious about the time they had.

They needed the medicine’s effects.

It was the life-saving medicine for the two injured men, one of whom she had personally performed surgery on.

She wasn’t about to let them die here.

She was a doctor.

It was her duty and responsibility to care for them and keep them safe.

Li Jia had never been as determined about her role as a doctor as she was now.

From this moment on, she had truly grown into a White Coat Angel.

The fire crackled below, the flames jumping up, bringing a warm glow to her face.

The snow water in the pot melted quickly, little bubbles rising to the surface.

The water must be close to boiling now.

Once the water boiled, Li Jia put the medicinal ingredients in the pot, with the ginseng last.

She was not trained in traditional medicine and had never dealt with it before, so she had consulted Tang Yuxin several times during the brewing process.

She asked about what precautions needed to be taken, which herbs to put in first, and which ones to add later.

Tang Yuxin told her that these were all mild ingredients and that there were no taboos to worry about; she could just put them all in the pot to cook together.

The longer the pot boiled, the stronger the smell of the herbs became.

After a while, the entire tent was filled with the smell of traditional medicine.

The scent had not been very strong before boiling, but as it cooked, the aroma intensified.

Yet this scent brought them a sense of comfort.

Because this was life-saving medicine.

Once the medicine was ready, Li Jia carefully fed it to the two injured men, giving each one a bowl.

Cheng Xu was okay, he was awake.

Even though he couldn’t move around much, he could use his hands.

He was able to eat and drink on his own.

As a young man who had experienced so much suffering and pain, he was unfazed by the bitter taste of the medicine, and he drank it all at once.

This medicine was indeed a lifesaver.

He didn’t know whether it was the effectiveness of the medicine or the power of the human mind, but as soon as he took the medicine, he felt his entire body warming up and began to sweat.

As for Liu Guang, Li Jia had to feed him spoon by spoon.

“Thank you,” Liu Guang said in a daze, swallowing the medicine bit by bit.

And this simple “thank you”, was the most moving gratitude Li Jia had ever received.

“Hmm, just surviving is good, just surviving is good.”

The blizzard outside continued, their footprints from the morning had all but disappeared.

The snow kept falling on their small tent, almost burying it.

But inside the tent, there was a quiet and warm world.

Even if it wasn’t that warm.

Tang Yuxin rubbed her hands and tightened her coat around her.

Even though it was still cold, it was much warmer compared to being in the trap.

She survived a catastrophe; perhaps she was fated to be fortunate.
