Recently in the city of Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, Mrs. Ma’s father-in-law, son, and son-in-law took medication in advance before a New Year’s drinking session, and as a result, all three passed out after drinking and were rushed to the emergency room for treatment.
According to reports from the Yangcheng Evening News, on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Mrs. Ma, her husband, and their son went to her father-in-law’s house to celebrate the festival.
Mrs. Ma mentioned that her father-in-law, son, and son-in-law gathered together and indulged in beer, white wine, and red wine, consuming a total of three bottles of white wine, three bottles of beer, and one bottle of liquor. Afterwards, the three men went to the bathroom and did not come out for a long time. When family members entered, they found that all of them had passed out, leading to them being promptly taken to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Upon waking up and inquiring about the situation, Mrs. Ma learned that the three men had taken medication in advance for the festive drinking session – the elderly man took blood pressure medication, while the younger ones took liver protection pills.
The incident has stirred up discussions online. Some netizens joked, “Not entering the same door if not family.” “Family matters are also a world of their own.” “Moderation is key when drinking during the New Year!” “Taking blood pressure medication before drinking alcohol is a huge taboo.” “One should not joke about their own life, as life is precious and only given once.”
