Chapter 120: An Undercurrent Under Calm
Xigui saw that Aunt Zhang said that she had eaten, so she didn't say anything, quickly finished her breakfast and went to school. When she came to the second-level middle class unhurriedly, she found that she was the first to come.
She naturally sat in the corner where she had sat on the first day. Soon, the other students in the class began to enter the classroom one after another. When the class Ling sounded, Xigui realized that the seats around her were all empty, and no one was sitting. Xigui smiled secretly in his heart, it seemed that because of yesterday's incident, he had been isolated by his classmates.
Xigui is just in line with his heart, he takes every class seriously, and after school, he rushes home alone, which is also light. In this way, every morning I studied the required courses with my classmates, and in the afternoon I went to the classroom in another building alone to study nursing. The students in the second middle class are all young ladies from very good families, and except for Xigui, none of them have taken nursing studies.
There aren't many students who elect nursing, just a dozen or so. The teacher is an old man named Zhou Limin, who came back from studying Western medicine and surgery, he is now working in a hospital in Wuhan, but because there are too few Western medicine doctors in China, Western medicine also relies on imports, and it is very expensive, not to mention that ordinary people can't afford to consume, even rich families may not try it until life and death.
Of course, the high cost of Western medicine is one reason, and another reason is that Chinese people have seen Chinese medicine and drank Chinese medicine when they are sick for generations. For Western medicine, only a small number of people accept and try.
Mr. Zhou is a young man who is very worried about the country and the people, so he finished his studies. He returned to China with full of enthusiasm and wanted to use his knowledge to serve the motherland. Unfortunately, there is a certain gap between the ideal and the reality. After returning to China, he finally found a hospital to receive him, but found that there were not many clinical patients every day.
Just when I was a little disappointed, the principal of Hubei No. 1 Girls' Middle School, Tong Guò, was introduced by an acquaintance, found him, and talked to Zhou Limin about her idea of opening nursing in the school, Zhou Limin strongly agreed, and volunteered to become the first teacher in this class.
Zhou Limin came back from studying abroad. Naturally know how important nursing staff are to hospitals. What's more, now that the country is in the midst of war, if a large number of nurses can be trained, these nurses will definitely be able to save the lives of many soldiers who are not seriously injured when they enter the army that is fighting against the Japanese army on the front line.
At that time, it will certainly be of great help to the fighting strength and morale of the army. This is for Zhou Limin, who wants to do his part for this ruined country but has no way. It's a thing that suits his heart.
For all sorts of reasons. Although there are not many students who apply for nursing. But Zhou Limin taught very seriously, and personally spent a lot of energy to write a nursing book.
This book. When Mr. Li handed it to her, Xigui spent about half an hour and read it carefully, Zhou Limin studied surgery after all, and it was mainly for wounded soldiers, so the book he compiled was all about how to deal with trauma, how to use the least resources at hand to treat and deal with injured soldiers.
After reading it, Xigui felt that it was very easy to understand, for those female students who had no medical foundation, it was still relatively easy to understand, although those things were too simple for her, but Xigui still went to that classroom early every afternoon, which was all to lay a foreshadowing in advance for how she would be a doctor in the future.
Sometimes Mr. Zhou Limin came, and Xigui consciously asked him some simple first aid questions about certain internal diseases that were not covered in the nursing book, such as drowning, cardiac arrest, stroke, heart disease, etc. aroused Zhou Limin's great interest, and he couldn't answer in detail at the time, so he checked the information overnight, and then discussed it carefully with Xigui after figuring it out, and after a period of time, the two became friends.
When there was no class on the weekend, I asked Xigui to go to the hospital to find him, saying that Xigui was a genius who studied medicine, not only could he understand it at all, but many ideas for treating wounds were incredible, but they were very practical in clinical practice. A talent like Xigui, who follows him by his side, sees more cases, and then systematically follows him to study medicine, his future achievements will definitely be immeasurable.
Zhou Limin's praise made Xigui cry and laugh a little, she was a clinical doctor in her previous life, okay! Moreover, Western medicine in the 20th century was not only more mature in theory and practice than in this era, but also in terms of drugs and devices, which cannot be compared with now.
If we use a very simple analogy to describe it, the current medical conditions of Western medicine can be compared with primitive societies, while the medical conditions of Western medicine in the 20th century have entered the ranks of developed countries.
Xigui is still very happy for Zhou Limin to invite her to the hospital on the weekend to follow the internship, no matter what, to be able to get in touch with the familiar industry, for Xigui, there is a feeling of returning to her previous life, her heart is still very passionate about practicing medicine, otherwise she would not have been very persistent in choosing this profession back then.
You must know that for a woman, soaking in the hospital every day, she comes into contact with all kinds of uncomfortable patients, and hears all kinds of negative feelings, which still has a great impact on people's mood. Of course, there is no time to make friends and hang out, which is a profession that requires full dedication.
Lawson was very busy during this time, leaving early and returning late every day, but Ouyang Xiaohua stayed at home every day, and Aunt Zhang was not the same as before, except for cooking three meals at home the rest of the time. Now I stay at home all the time except for grocery shopping.
Luo Sen didn't have time to pay attention to Xigui, Ouyang Xiaohua was immersed in his own worries and was in no mood to care about Xigui, and Aunt Zhang was because Luo Sen's instructions made her optimistic about Ouyang Xiaohua, and she was naturally very relieved about Xigui. So, Xigui went to school quietly every day, and when she came back in the evening, she called Zheng Jiaojiao to ask her about her weight loss, and went to the hospital where Zhou Limin worked on weekends to be a free intern.
A month or two later, her intern was even more famous in the hospital than Zhou Limin, mainly because a patient with acute appendicitis was already in a coma when he was admitted to the hospital, and the doctors who were present at the time. Because they couldn't be diagnosed, they didn't dare to do treatment, including Zhou Limin.
And Xigui really couldn't stand a life that could have been saved, and disappeared alive in front of her eyes. She committed the occupational disease in her previous life again, rushed to the patient without saying a word, and after carefully examining the patient, according to the clinical experience of the year, it was determined that it was a perforated appendix, which caused a coma caused by acute peritonitis, and if she did not operate. This young life is about to be irretrievable.
In a hurry. Xigui found Zhou Limin, who was standing aside, and said a few words in his ear, which made Zhou Limin immediately nod excitedly.
At this time, the patient's family members were helpless when they saw the doctors gathered around, and the director of the hospital they called also spread his hands helplessly, saying that the patient could not be treated. In times of despair. Xigui said lightly: "As long as you can get penicillin." I will be able to save him! ”
"What did you say?" The director of this Wuhan hospital looked at Xigui with some surprise. The face was incredulous, you know, Xigui at this time was just a ten-year-old girl.
"As long as you can get penicillin. I can save people! Hee-ki repeated her words again.
"Do you know what you're talking about?" The dean said a little angry Chao Xigui.
"Anyway, you're all sure that this patient can't be treated, so why don't you let me try? It's better than watching the sick wait for death like this! Xigui looked at the old man with no fear at all.
"Little girl, can you really save my son?" A middle-aged woman who was crying heartily around the patient stepped forward and asked eagerly after hearing Xigui's words.
"Well, if you can get penicillin, your son will be saved!" Xigui said with a serious face.
"I can get it! Don't worry, if you can't save yourself by then, my family won't blame you! Although the patient's mother was anxious, she was also skeptical, but she thought that this hospital was the best hospital in Wuhan, and even the director said that there was no help, and it would be the same result if she was sent elsewhere. Since the little girl said that she could save it, it was better to try, as she said, than to wait for death.
Since the patient's family agreed to let Xigui rescue, there is no need for the dean to be that villain, anyway, they all said that in the process of Xigui's treatment, the hospital will not be responsible if the person dies.
The doctors in the hospital all looked at Xigui and Zhou Limin as if they were watching a joke, and the two of them didn't have time to pay attention to the schadenfreude of these people, and hurriedly got the patient into the operating room. And the patient's father had already gone to find someone to get penicillin that Xigui wanted.
In modern times, appendicitis surgery is only a small operation, and Xigui didn't know how many patients she had when she was in the emergency room, but this one in front of her is a little more complicated, and from the perspective of symptoms, it should be a perforation. So she asked Zhou Limin to be her helper.
Two hours later, the door of the operating room opened, Zhou Limin was excited, his eyes glowed and he looked at Xigui, and Xigui walked out of the operating room calmly.
The patient's mother, who had been waiting outside the door of the operating room, rushed to Xigui with an anxious face, "How is it?" Is my son saved? ”
"Your son's surgery was a success! Now as long as there is penicillin, it will soon be out of danger! If it weren't for this medicine, I wouldn't dare to say that the patient would have survived the dangerous period! Xigui said truthfully.
"Yes! Here comes the medicine you wanted. But I only got ten vials, if it's not enough, let his father find another way! As she spoke, the patient's mother snatched a box from a middle-aged man standing beside her and handed it to Xigui.
Xigui opened the box and saw the most primitive penicillin, which was not as white as it is in modern times. Instead, it looks like a yellowish, oily liquid. Xigui took out one, handed it to Zhou Limin, and instructed: "Go, inject the patient immediately!" ”
Zhou Limin immediately took the medicine and gave the patient a intramuscular injection by himself. And the rest of the medicine, except for Xigui who made an excuse to take one, saying that he wanted to study it, handed over the rest to Zhou Limin, and asked him to inject the patient twice a day, one at a time. As for other follow-up matters, they were all handed over to Zhou Limin to deal with.
Five or six days later, the patient, whom even the director of the hospital had declared unsaved, began to run around the hospital alive. The doctors in the hospital were ashamed, and gradually glanced at Xi Guigao. Even the dean was a little polite when he met Xigui. Hee-gui quickly became the most popular person in various departments. Of course, it is inseparable from her extraordinary abilities.
As for the young man who was rescued by Xigui, his surname is He, his name is He Xiaolong, and he is sixteen years old this year. The family not only has foreign companies in Wuhan, but also foreign companies in Beiping and Shanghai. It can be regarded as a comprador house. He was born in a wealthy family.
After Xigui found out, he thought to himself, no wonder he could get penicillin, but in Wuhan, maybe only Japanese military doctors had the life-saving medicine in their hands. I just wonder if this family and the Japanese are close? You can't save the traitor's son with your own kindness, right?
It is said that He Xiaolong has only one son in the family, and he usually sees it more valuable than his eyeballs, but what he never expected was that after he went out to eat with his parents that day, on the way home, his stomach suddenly had a sharp pain, and when he was sent to the hospital, the man was already unconscious.
Fortunately, it happened to be the weekend, and Xigui happened to go to the hospital to follow Zhou Limin around, which was also He Xiaolong's fate, so he was lucky to pick up a small life.
Since He Xiaolong was saved by Xigui, after being discharged from the hospital, this kid has relied on her a little. knew that she would go to Wuhan Hospital every weekend, and he would go to Wuhan Hospital on weekends, but this kid would go wherever Xigui went, causing everyone in the hospital to laugh at Xigui, saying that he began to have a protector at a young age. When Xigui heard it, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot. But He Xiaolong looked proud.
On this day, Xigui came home from school, made a phone call with Zheng Jiaojiao after dinner, and went up to the third floor to read. Anyway, recently, Lawson has been going out early and returning late, and he doesn't know what he's busy with.
Xigui is holding the medical books borrowed from Zhou Limin and looking at them fascinated, most of the Western medical books he was looking for this year are in foreign languages, Zhou Limin's set happens to be the English version, Xigui is looking at it while comparing it with the medical knowledge in his memory, and at the same time he wants to pick up some unfamiliar English.
When Xigui was reading the previous words while looking at her mouth, there was an urgent knock on her door, and at the same time, Aunt Zhang's voice sounded outside the door, "Xigui, open the door quickly!" Something happened to your father! ”
When Xigui heard this, she was startled, the thick book in her hand didn't hold it steady, and it fell down, hitting her feet right on, so painful that her tears almost flew out. (To be continued......)
