The wealthy areas were generally more remote. Although Li Yifu also had property in Los Angeles, he still had to wait for a car to pick him up. Therefore, he did not refuse Elon Musk's kindness and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Musk!"
Li Yifu and Elon Musk were equally wealthy, so Elon Musk naturally sent him out personally. Xia Ruofei, on the other hand, stayed in the room with the excuse of taking care of Little X so that Li Yifu wouldn't feel awkward.
If Xia Ruofei personally sent him off, Li Yifu would definitely be very nervous.
In fact, the two had already discussed it. Li Yifu would not be of much help if he stayed here. He would leave Elon Musk's house first. On one hand, he would prepare the funds. On the other hand, he would also talk to Song Wei, Ling Qingxue, and the others about the situation. He would let them stay in the hotel first and wait patiently.
Including Chen Xuan and Yu Xin 'er, he could also report the progress here to the elders in China. They were too anxious to wait.
Li Yifu also had to go to Houston to prepare a place to receive supplies.
Elon Musk's SpaceX had many partners near Houston. It was the most convenient place to receive equipment and supplies.
A dozen sets of extravehicular spacesuits were still okay, but the key was that there were still two to three thousand oxygen supply modules. If he could also buy a simplified version of the Dragon Spaceship, then the required space would be even larger.
Therefore, Li Yifu had to prepare a warehouse that was large enough in advance and had good concealment and other aspects.
These things could not be left to others. He could only do it himself.
Xia Ruofei waited in Little X's room for a while before Elon Musk and Grimes returned to the room.
After a while, Little X finally woke up.
Grimes quickly asked the nanny to prepare milk powder because the little guy began to smack her lips as soon as she woke up. She was obviously hungry.
What made Elon Musk and Grimes more excited was that Little X did not cry all the time when she was awake as usual. Malignant tumors were often accompanied by intense pain. When it flared up, even an adult would be in so much pain that they could not live anymore, let alone an ignorant baby.
This time, after Little X woke up, she actually just pursed her lips and cried a few times symbolically. Then, she began to suck on her fingers. Obviously, this cry was mostly due to hunger, not pain.
The child couldn't speak, so Elon Musk and Grimes naturally couldn't ask him how he felt. But comparing the two, they could still feel that the effects of the treatment seemed to be very obvious.
Elon Musk and Grimes didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but they felt that Little X's complexion was much better than it was in the morning.
This was only the effect of the first acupuncture treatment. The two of them were naturally surprised and happy. At the same time, they were even more hopeful about the future of the treatment.
The nanny quickly brewed half a bottle of milk and carefully measured it to make sure that the temperature was within the right range. Then, she came over to feed Little X with the bottle.
As soon as the mouth of the milk bottle touched his lips, the little guy opened his mouth and began to suck in big mouthfuls. Moreover, his little hand subconsciously reached for the milk bottle.
After a short while, the small bottle of milk was completely emptied.
The nanny said in surprise, "Mr. Musk, Ms. Grimes, Little X's appetite is very good today!"
Grimes knew very well that although the little guy had been crying non-stop for the past two days, every time he was fed milk, he could only drink a few mouthfuls. Moreover, he often cried because of the pain, causing him to vomit out the milk that was fed with great difficulty. In short, it was all kinds of torment.
Today, he had only received about half an hour of acupuncture, and there was actually such a big improvement. Grimes was so happy that his eyes were brimming with tears. He kept expressing his gratitude to Xia Ruofei.
At this time, the housekeeper sent by Elon Musk to Chinatown to buy medicine returned.
Not only did he bring back Chinese medicine that had been brewed and packaged in vacuum bags, but he also bought a large number of medicinal herbs according to Xia Ruofei's request.
The staff was moving them to the room next door — the room next door had now been arranged for Xia Ruofei to live in. These medicinal herbs that Xia Ruofei needed were naturally placed in his room.
Along with the medicinal herbs, there was also a set of equipment for brewing Chinese medicine. There were even several bags of exquisite charcoal prepared.
"Mr. Xia, this medicine …" Elon Musk had already taken a bag of brewed Chinese medicine, and the rest were placed aside.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "You can take one dose now. The rest can be stored in the freezer for preservation. Take it once every half an hour after meals."
After that, Xia Ruofei reached out and touched the vacuum bag of Chinese medicine in Elon Musk's hand, and then said, "The temperature is a bit low. How about this! Just prepare a small basin of boiling water and heat up the bag of Chinese medicine before drinking it. In the future, every time you take out Chinese medicine from the fridge, do the same. The temperature … Don't burn your mouth! Don't be too high, but don't be too cold, or your stomach won't be able to take it. "
"Understood!" Elon Musk threw the bag of Chinese medicine back into the big plastic bag, where the rest of the Chinese medicine was stored.
He motioned for the housekeeper to personally store the Chinese medicine and help him heat up one of the bags.
Xia Ruofei also stood up and said with a smile, "Then I'll take my leave first! Since the medicinal herbs are all prepared, then I'll prepare to prepare the medicine and brew it. Anyway, I live next door. If there's any situation, you can call me at any time! "
Elon Musk hurriedly said, "Okay! Thank you, Mr. Xia! Thank you for your hard work! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Everyone is just taking what they need. Mr. Musk, you don't have to be so polite!"
After that, Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded at Grimes, then stepped out of Little X's room and went straight into the room next door.
This was actually a bit like a small suite in a hotel.
There was a separate dry and wet bathroom, as well as a small living room. There was also a closed balcony outside the living room. In addition, there was even a special cloakroom in the bedroom.
The medicinal herbs that the housekeeper had just bought were neatly piled up in a corner of the living room.
After Xia Ruofei entered the room, he habitually used his spiritual power to check the room. He didn't find any monitoring or recording equipment, then he began to organize the medicinal herbs.
He placed the medicinal herbs that were packaged according to their categories on the coffee table. Many of them were used to confuse people and were completely useless. He also opened the medicine bags and placed them on the coffee table.
Although they were separated by an ocean, the quality of these medicinal herbs was not bad. At least, they met Xia Ruofei's requirements.
He skillfully took out the required herbs according to the prescription he had already drawn up in his mind. He didn't even need to use the delicate little scale that the housekeeper had bought back. Xia Ruofei could accurately determine the weight with his hand.
Xia Ruofei directly set up the medicine pot on the balcony and began to brew the medicine.
Elon Musk had also taken a dose of Chinese medicine and was waiting in Little X's room next door. Although he wanted to know how Xia Ruofei was preparing, he didn't dare to rashly enter the room and disturb him.
After Xia Ruofei had brewed a pot of medicine, he took out a small bottle of spirit heart flower petal solution from the Ring-Tu space. This was a solution with a very low concentration. The active ingredient contained in it was about one-fifth of a petal.
He poured the petal solution into the medicine pot and stirred it well. He then poured a small bowl on the table.
He then took out a casserole from the Ring-Tu space and poured the rest of the medicinal liquid into the casserole before storing it in the Ring-Tu space.
This small bowl of medicine was only about one-fourth of an adult's dosage. The pot of medicine could hold at least ten bowls like this. Therefore, in this small bowl of medicine, the active ingredient of the spirit heart flower petal was only about one-fiftieth of a petal. This amount was naturally very small.
This amount was definitely very effective for Little X's treatment. Moreover, it could prevent her from recovering overnight due to too much active ingredient.
Xia Ruofei had also done some calculations before choosing this amount.
While waiting for the medicine to cool down, Xia Ruofei tidied up the herbs on the coffee table. He casually picked some herbs and stored them in the Ring-Tu space. Anyway, he had stored a large amount of Chinese medicine in the Ring-Tu space. The quality of the herbs that the butler bought was very good. Xia Ruofei added them to his own space pharmacy.
Xia Ruofei also took some of the useless herbs that were used to pass off as genuine ones.
This way, even if someone sneaked into this room and saw the remaining herbs, they wouldn't be able to deduce the actual herbs and dosage of the medicine.
Of course, Xia Ruofei would spend most of his time in this room or in Little X's room next door. Basically, no one would be able to sneak into this room under his watch.
He just always maintained the habit of being cautious.
Xia Ruofei personally wrapped up the dregs of the medicine and crushed them with his vitality. Then, he flushed them all away with the toilet bucket. At the same time, he also washed the medicine pot clean.
By the time all the finishing touches were done, the medicinal soup on the table had already cooled down to a lukewarm state.
Thus, Xia Ruofei took the bowl of medicine and walked into the room next door.
Elon Musk and Grimes were both in the room. What they were most concerned about right now was undoubtedly Little X's situation. Elon Musk's company had a bunch of things to deal with, including a few rather urgent meetings, but he had pushed them all back.
When they saw Xia Ruofei, the two quickly stood up and greeted him.
Xia Ruofei smiled and handed the medicine bowl to Grimes. Then, he said, "It should have been an hour since Little X drank the milk, right? She can drink the medicine directly now. "
Grimes carefully held the medicine bowl as if holding the hope of survival.
She could smell the pungent smell of the Chinese medicine and couldn't help but ask, "Doctor Xia, this medicine … is it directly fed to the child?"
Xia Ruofei shrugged and asked, "What else?"
However, he immediately realized the reason why Grimes asked this question, so he smiled and said, "Considering that the child is relatively young, you can also put it in a milk bottle and let her suck on it herself. Of course, if you're afraid that the medicine will be bitter, you can also add some sugar appropriately. It won't affect the medicine's efficacy. "
Grimes nodded. She looked at the black medicine in the small bowl in her hand and thought of the scene of adding sugar cubes. She couldn't help but smile and say, "This sounds a bit like drinking coffee!"
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "The appearance is indeed somewhat similar, but the taste is worlds apart! Oh right, I have to remind you of something. "
"Please say!" Elon Musk and Grimes quickly said in unison.
"Whether you feed it directly with a small spoon, put it in a milk bottle and let the child suck on it herself, or add sugar or something, it's all fine." Xia Ruofei said, "But you must remember one thing. No matter what, you can't let your body come into contact with the medicine, including using your lips to taste the temperature. Also, if your fingers or any other part of your body accidentally come into contact with the medicine, then this bowl of medicine will have to be thrown away. You can't let the child use it again!"
Xia Ruofei said very seriously because this was the characteristic of the spirit heart flower's petals. If one really used their lips to taste the temperature before feeding the medicine, then all the medicine would be absorbed by the person who tested the temperature, and it would have no effect on Little X.
Of course, the effects of the Chinese medicine itself would still be there, but relying only on Chinese medicine and acupuncture would obviously be a very long treatment process. Moreover, Xia Ruofei couldn't guarantee a complete recovery.
Elon Musk and Grimes didn't know the mystery, but Xia Ruofei's request wasn't particularly strange. At least from a hygienic point of view, it was very reasonable.
No matter where one came into contact with the medicine, there was a possibility of contamination. Especially the act of using one's lips to taste the temperature, there was a huge possibility of infection. Therefore, from a doctor's point of view, Xia Ruofei's request was quite normal.
However, Xia Ruofei's instructions were more serious than an ordinary doctor's, and his expression was more dignified. Elon Musk and Grimes couldn't help but pay more attention to it.
The two hurriedly nodded and replied, "Okay! We will strictly abide by it! "
After saying that, Grimes personally operated and explained to the nurses and nannies beside him. He mainly emphasized that during the process of transferring the medicine, no part of the human body could come into contact with the medicine.
Xia Ruofei watched from the side until Grimes carefully poured all the medicine into the milk bottle and threw in two cubes of sugar. Only then did he nod with a smile and said, "Well done! In the future, you have to follow this standard every time. Otherwise, there might be a situation where the efficacy of the medicine is reduced! "
Grimes tightened the milk bottle and shook it to wait for the sugar cubes to melt. He smiled and said, "We will definitely remember the doctor's instructions!"
After mixing it evenly, Grimes personally went over to feed the medicine to the child.
Perhaps it was because the Chinese medicine with the sugar cubes tasted good, or perhaps the child could subconsciously feel that this strange medicine was his life, so he didn't reject it and directly sucked it in big mouthfuls.
Seeing that the brown medicine in the milk bottle was getting less and less, Grimes couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.
Soon, Little X drank half the bottle of medicine and then burped, making everyone in the room laugh.
The little guy's eyes were confused. He looked left and right, then simply closed his eyes and fell asleep...
