Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2774: Chapter 2710: Delivering Medicine

She was carrying a backpack on her back, and when she was about to enter, Xiao Li gestured for her to remove the backpack for inspection.

Once the backpack was opened, it was full of food.

There were several bottles of water, a few boxes of snacks, a small can of tea leaves, and a tiny box of Ginseng Slices.

”Miss Jiang, these...” Xiao Li hadn’t expected she would bring all this food over.

”Do you need to inspect it?”

Jiang Xiao said, ”Can we make it quick? The Chief Alliance Officer only gave me five minutes.”

Li Hanzhong’s voice came from inside, ”Xiao Li, let her through.”

”Yes.”

Jiang Xiao immediately gathered her things and walked inside.

Entering the room, she only saw the office desk buried in piles of documents and books, with Li Hanzhong hunched over writing something, almost obscured by the stack.

Upon hearing her footsteps, Li Hanzhong raised his head and said, ”Little, have a seat for two minutes.”

”Okay.”

Jiang Xiao was a little surprised to see Li Hanzhong because his face and eyes were somewhat puffy, with bloodshot eyes, making it unclear how long he had been up.

Moreover, there was an IV stand beside him with an IV drip bottle hanging, and a needle was inserted in the back of his hand for infusion.

Jiang Xiao sat down on a nearby sofa and placed the things she carried onto the coffee table.

The pen in Li Hanzhong’s hand was swiftly scribbling away.

Seeing his furrowed brows, Jiang Xiao guessed he might be writing some frustrating responses.

After he set down the pen, he gestured for her to come over.

”Little, come here.”

Jiang Xiao immediately gathered the items once more, walked over, placed them on the table in front of him, and then opened the small box, handing it to Li Hanzhong.

”Uncle, take a Ginseng Slice first, and then we’ll talk.”

”A Ginseng Slice?”

Li Hanzhong remembered the Ginseng Slices she had given him before, realizing, ”The ones you gave me before, I forgot to eat.”

”Try this one now, it’s better than the previous ones.” Jiang Xiao said, gesturing for him to take a Ginseng Slice.

Li Hanzhong smiled slightly, not paying much mind, but still pinched a slice and put it in his mouth.

The unique flavor of ginseng immediately spread across his taste buds, but it invigorated him significantly, a sensation that was very noticeable.

This feeling genuinely refreshed his mind.

It even seemed to quench his thirst and generate saliva.

”This Ginseng Slice is quite good.” He said.

Jiang Xiao nodded, ”Of course, otherwise I wouldn’t have specially brought it over to you.”

She closed the box, placed it aside, and opened a small bottle of water, ”This is steamed from boiling Lingzhi, ginseng, Dendrobium, and many other herbs.”

”It can be brewed this way?”

”Certainly, it’s from Grandpa Chen’s family medical book, extracting the essence of the herbs without being too medicinal, with a bit of rock sugar and pear fructose added for a good taste.” Jiang Xiao said, ”I wouldn’t sell this at Youqingwei Teahouse, nor can it be found outside. Uncle, have a taste.”

From what she said, it was obvious this was something good.

Li Hanzhong didn’t hesitate, taking a couple of sips right away.

Indeed, just as she said, there was only a slight sweetness along with a hint of freshness.

Paired with the Ginseng Slice in his mouth, as the water went down his throat, Li Hanzhong genuinely felt that much of his exhaustion was immediately dispelled.

He looked in amazement at the water in his hand and then at Jiang Xiao, ”Little, this water...”
