Chapter 346 Zhao Tianshan Faints (1)
The author wishes everyone a happy 520!
I might only post one update today, everyone get some rest.
If the author can manage to write another chapter, they will try their best to do so.
If the author really can't write any more, it will be added to the end of this chapter tomorrow morning.
……
As dusk fell, the forestry workers finally finished their day's work.
Before long, the advance team arrived at Xia Tian's dormitory.
"Please have a seat, everyone. The food will be ready in a bit!"
Meng Yue greeted the advance team members, acting like the lady of the house.
A short while later, Xia Tian took the last dish out of the pot and placed it on the table.
Then he took out a bottle of fine wine from the cabinet and placed it in the middle of the table.
The people took their seats one by one.
Once everyone was seated, their gazes turned to Xia Tian, who was sitting in the main seat.
Summer stood up from her seat, paused briefly, and then began to speak.
"I've called you all here today to announce something very important."
Hearing Xia Tian's words, everyone's attention turned to Meng Yue.
"That means Xiaoyue and I got our marriage certificate!"
"From today onwards, Xiaoyue and I are legally married."
"We were in the advance team, and we went through hunger together on the dam. You could say we had a life-or-death bond!"
"The reason I called everyone here is that I hope you can be my witnesses."
"Xia, how did you manage to win over the prettiest girl in our advance team so quietly?"
As soon as Xia Tian finished speaking, Zhao Tianshan was the first to chime in.
"Why? You want to learn?"
Xia Tian smiled slightly upon hearing Zhao Tianshan's words.
"I want to, I really want to!"
"Oh, I'm not telling you!"
"Engineer Xia, don't be so stingy."
After Zhao Tianshan's interruption, the atmosphere in the dormitory suddenly became cheerful in the summer.
"Xia Gong, I wish you and Meng Yue a long and happy marriage!"
After a long silence, Feng Cheng suddenly picked up his wine glass and toasted Xia Tian.
Summer naturally agreed with a smile.
After downing a glass of wine, Feng Cheng mustered his courage.
He drank this glass of wine to bolster his courage.
As for respecting Xia Tian, that was just a side thing.
Hearing the cheerful laughter around him, Feng Cheng stood up from his seat.
"Listen up, everyone, I also have something to say today!"
As Feng Cheng finished speaking, the dormitory gradually quieted down.
Everyone looked at Feng Cheng with different expressions, wondering what he was going to say.
Seeing that everyone had fallen silent and all eyes were on him, Feng Cheng cleared his throat.
"Since everyone is here today, I have something important to announce."
After Feng Cheng finished speaking, he looked at Qin Xuemei beside him.
Qin Xuemei felt a little nervous under Feng Cheng's intense gaze.
"Xuemei, I want to fight with you forever and live with you. Would you like that?"
Qin Xuemei was caught off guard by Feng Cheng's sudden confession.
For a moment, my mind went blank, and I didn't know what to say.
"Oh~"
Hearing Feng Cheng's sudden and bold confession, the crowd began to cheer.
Hearing the cheers and jeers around her, Qin Xuemei finally came to her senses.
"I...I do!"
Then, Qin Xuemei parted her lips slightly and spoke slowly.
"Wow, Feng Cheng, you're amazing!"
Zhao Tianshan felt a pang of envy as he listened to Qin Xuemei's words.
However, he mostly offered his blessings to Qin Xuemei and Feng Cheng for getting together.
At this point, only Zhao Tianshan remained single among the three musketeers of the advance team.
However, Zhao Tianshan has launched a full-scale offensive against Zhang Manling, and their relationship can be said to be progressing remarkably well.
We're almost at the stage of discussing marriage.
However, Zhao Tianshan did an excellent job of keeping it a secret.
Therefore, the public is currently unaware of this matter.
As for Dayong, he got married at the end of last year.
Erhuang also found a female worker, but their progress was not as fast as Zhao Tianshan's.
Currently, they only hold hands occasionally.
"Feng Cheng, you're stealing the show, aren't you? You'll have to have a few more drinks later."
Summer was also taken aback by Feng Cheng's sudden and bizarre move.
Hearing Xia Tian's joke, Feng Cheng scratched his head.
"Alright everyone, let's eat our food quickly, or it'll get cold!"
Summer invited everyone to eat.
Amid laughter, everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together, the crisp sound of the porcelain cups mingling with the aroma of food filling the room.
Zhao Tianshan picked up a piece of braised pork with his chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth, speaking indistinctly.
"On this joyous day, we absolutely have to drink to our hearts' content!"
As he spoke, he picked up the wine jug and filled everyone's glasses, the clear liquid rippling in the cups.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.
Feng Cheng held Qin Xuemei's hand, his gaze gentle, and suddenly stood up to make a suggestion.
"We've settled down here on the dam, and we have a long life ahead of us."
"It just so happens that Lao Wei and Comrade Xiu Rong haven't held their wedding yet."
"How about we make a promise today—to wait until this fall?"
"Let's have a group wedding for all of us who are married or in relationships!"
What do you all think?
These words immediately caused an uproar in the room.
Sui Zhichao listened to Feng Cheng's suggestion and looked at Shen Mengyin.
Feeling the gazes of those around her, Shen Mengyin nodded.
"Feng Cheng's idea is great!"
"Our advance team is like family. We'll all celebrate together and make it lively!"
Xia Tian put his arm around Meng Yue's shoulder and spoke with a smile.
Feeling the warmth of summer's embrace, Meng Yue felt a little embarrassed.
She tried to break free out of shyness, but it was no use.
Instead of struggling, I rested my head on Xia Tian's shoulder and enjoyed the warmth.
As night deepened, moonlight streamed through the window onto the messy dishes and chopsticks on the table.
Although everyone was slightly drunk, their eyes were full of anticipation.
The wind on the dam, carrying the fresh scent of grass and trees, swept across the eaves, as if it too was singing a song of celebration for this special gathering.
After seeing everyone off, Xia Tian and Meng Yue cleaned up the mess on the table together.
Chang Wei, meanwhile, was eating with his mouth full of oil.
Although there were no leftovers, there were many bones left over from what many people had eaten.
All of these benefits went to Chang Wei.
Chang Wei eats big meals of meat and fish every day, and occasionally eats some bones to cleanse his stomach.
After finishing tidying up, Xia Tian locked Chang Wei out of the door.
No matter how much Chang Wei scratched at the door, he couldn't open the wooden door.
Chang Wei looked at the wooden door, on the verge of tears.
"Waaah, does Master not want me anymore?"
Xia Tian was unaware of Chang Wei's inner thoughts as he was ruthlessly shut out of the room.
At this moment, his mind was completely focused on the girl in front of him.
"Xiaoyue, are you really ready?"
Xia Tian looked at Meng Yue sitting opposite her and asked in a low voice.
Meng Yue looked up at the man in front of her, her cheeks flushed, and nodded gently.
Summer, being a vigorous young chick, saw Meng Yue nod and was not yet blinded by desire.
He carried Meng Yue to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and sat her down, then fetched water for her to wash her feet.
After the two finished soaking their feet, Xia Tian turned off the lights.
10,829 words are omitted here.
……
The morning sunlight streamed through the window lattice, casting dappled shadows on the wooden floor.
Before the morning mist had dissipated, Xia Tian had already completed her Tai Chi morning practice in the courtyard.
Despite being overworked last night, he was still full of energy this morning.
After all, he is an old traditional Chinese medicine doctor.
In addition, years of physical exercise have allowed me to remain energetic and vigorous in the summer.
But Meng Yue suffered a lot.
I completed my workout as usual, and then comforted Chang Wei, who hadn't been allowed to go home last night.
Summer came to the cafeteria and got breakfast for Mengyue.
He originally wanted to make Meng Yue a loving breakfast by himself, but he was afraid of disturbing her sleep.
I might as well just come to the cafeteria and get a meal to take home.
"Xiaoyue, get up and eat something before you go back to sleep!"
Summer woke up Mengyue, who was still half asleep, and put breakfast on the kang (a heated brick bed) for her.
When Meng Yue woke up, her face was still flushed.
Looking into the summer sun, Meng Yue recalled the madness of last night.
Her mother had told her that the first time might be a little uncomfortable.
"Xia, you can go out first, I'm getting dressed!"
Meng Yue, feeling the pressure from Xia Tian's gaze, burrowed her head under the covers and whispered something.
Looking at the shy Meng Yue, Xia Tian couldn't bear to tease her anymore.
He silently walked out of the inner room and came outside.
Hearing the noise, Meng Yue cautiously peeked out from under the covers.
Seeing that Xia Tian was no longer in the house, she quickly got dressed.
"Eat something!"
Looking at the pretty girl in front of him, Xia Tian spoke.
"Don't go to work today, just stay home and rest!"
"Then move all your stuff to my place for the party!"
Listening to Xia Tian's arrangements, Meng Yue took a sip of porridge and nodded silently.
Watching the rice porridge in the bowl gradually empty, Xia Tian carried Meng Yue to the kang (a heated brick bed).
Then gently cover her with the blanket.
"I'm going to work now, you can sleep a little longer!"
"Uh-huh!"
Summer looked at the sleeping beauty lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) and gently kissed her forehead.
Only then did she turn around and leave for work.
Upon arriving at the office and having just sat down, Feng Cheng hurriedly rushed into the office.
"Engineer Xia, something terrible has happened!"
Feng Cheng rushed in, panting heavily.
"What's wrong, Feng Cheng?"
Seeing Feng Cheng panting heavily, Xia Tian spoke up.
Feng Cheng calmed his rapid breathing from running before speaking.
"Xia, Lao Zhao suddenly fainted this morning, and he has been taken to the infirmary."
"Go and take a look!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Tian jumped up from her seat.
Ignoring the overturned chair, he rushed towards the infirmary.
Watching the summer fade into the distance, Feng Cheng also chased after it.
When Xia Tian arrived at the infirmary, Yu Zheng and Huang Ziming were also at the entrance.
Xia, you're here?
"Go in quickly and check on Old Zhao's condition."
When Yu Zheng saw that Xia Tian had arrived, he immediately felt half relieved.
He believed in Xia Tian's medical skills.
"Don't worry, Uncle Yu, I'm here!"
Xia Tian patted Yu Zhenglai's hand, signaling him to relax.
He then rushed into the infirmary.
Upon entering, one sees Old Zhao lying on the hospital bed, his face deathly pale.
Dr. Xie from the clinic is checking on Zhao Tianshan's condition.
Summer passed by, and her fingers rested on Zhao Tianshan's burlap sac.
When Dr. Xie saw that Xia Tian had arrived, he voluntarily gave up his seat.
……
Xia Tian briefly checked on Zhao Tianshan's condition.
Zhao Tianshan's condition is serious in some ways, but not so serious in others.
The piece of shrapnel that was not removed from the back of his head was compressing his brain nerves.
In this case, only surgical craniotomy can be performed.
Once the shrapnel is removed, the person will recover.
This kind of surgery is naturally a piece of cake for a doctor of Xia Tian's skill level.
If Xia Tian were to personally perform the surgery, Zhao Tianshan would have a 90% chance of being cured.
As for the remaining 10%, these are factors beyond human control.
However, Zhao Tianshan needs his or his family's consent to have the surgery performed.
Xia Tian glanced at Zhao Tianshan lying on the hospital bed and gestured to Doctor Xie to help turn him over.
The two of them worked together to turn Zhao Tianshan, who was lying flat on the hospital bed, over so that he was lying face down on the bed.
Then Xia Tian took out silver needles from his personal space and looked at Doctor Xie.
"The first thing to do for a patient who has fainted is to bring him back to consciousness."
Then, Xia Tian moved his fingers slightly, and the silver needles in his hand accurately pierced Zhao Tianshan's Baihui, Hegu, Fengchi and other acupoints.
Although Dr. Xie received systematic training in Western medicine, he also has some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine.
Dr. Xie had previously consulted Xia Tian about her medical skills.
Summer didn't hold back either, taking this opportunity to teach Doctor Xie a lesson.
Summer needles were inserted into Zhao Tianshan's acupoints, and within a few minutes, Zhao Tianshan slowly woke up.
"Old Zhao, you're awake?"
Looking at Zhao Tianshan, who was slowly waking up, Xia Tian spoke.
"Xia, what are you doing here?"
"Where am I?"
Zhao Tianshan looked at Xia Tian in front of him blankly and asked the two soul-searching questions.
"You just fainted. This is the forest farm's clinic."
Xia Tian answered Zhao Tianshan's question.
"Alright, it's good that you're awake. Get some rest!"
Xia Tian gave Dr. Xie a few more instructions before turning and leaving the clinic.
Outside the clinic.
Yu Zheng and his entourage are waiting anxiously.
Seeing Xia Tian come out, they quickly surrounded her.
"Is Tianshan alright?"
Yu Zheng looked at Xia Tian anxiously and asked the question.
"It's nothing serious, Lao Zhao is just too tired, he'll be fine after a rest!"
Summer smiled and spoke.
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhenglai and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay!"
"Alright, everyone stop crowding around here and go back to work!"
Summer waved to disperse the crowd that had gathered there.
After the crowd had mostly dispersed, Xia Tian pulled Yu Zhenglai aside.
Seeing that no one was around, Xia Tian spoke with a solemn expression.
"Uncle Yu, Old Zhao's condition is not optimistic."
Upon hearing Xia Tian's words, Yu Zhenglai was visibly taken aback.
"what happened?"
Then Yu Zhenglai asked.
"There is a high probability that there is a piece of shrapnel in the back of Lao Zhao's head that has not been removed."
"For some unknown reason, the shrapnel has shifted and is now compressing his brain nerves."
That's why he suddenly fainted.
Hearing Xia Tian's words, Yu Zhenglai's expression became even more solemn.
"Is there any hope for Tianshan?"
After much hesitation, Yu Zhenglai finally asked the question.
"It's definitely possible to save him, but I'm afraid..."
