7. The Long First Day (2)

Liu Yao and Yao Ying used the so-called alkali that almost half of it could not dissolve in the water to wash their hands, and when they looked back, they saw Liu Mandong touching the west and looking around, and they couldn't find anything to interfere with, and they didn't look like assistants at all, so they told her to make three masks, and then at the beginning of the operation, they took two pieces of cotton cloth, ready to wipe their sweat at any time, so as not to drip on the wound.

The executive's family cooked everything and sorted it into large bowls. After doing this, he walked towards the base of the wall. The Mei family stood against the wall over there. Sun Zhenggang picked up two more buckets of water and came in, and stood next to Mei Yuanwai with the girl who had nothing to do. A group of people occupied VIP seats in the courtyard and watched intently. More people gathered in the ordinary seats outside the courtyard gate, and a bunch of heads clustered into the door. There was a buzzing of talking.

The afternoon sun shines into the yard, reflecting a harsh light on the ground, but it is not very hot. A gust of breeze blew, Liu Yao put on masks for himself, his wife and daughter, and was about to prepare for surgery, when he suddenly found that the helpers just now had become the audience, and he hurriedly called the executive's family and drove everyone out, even the Mei family couldn't stay. Liu Yao recalled the process of the operation and realized that the entire anesthesia procedure had been canceled, so thinking that the patient was still awake, an idea popped up in his mind: "Replace the anesthesia procedure: comfort and encourage the patient to undergo surgery in a conscious state", so he turned back to Xiaomei and said, "I will have surgery in a while." It will hurt. If you can't stand it, not only will you be able to walk, but you'll die. ”

Mei Jiaju nodded palely, and fainted in time when Yao Ying was cleaning the wound with alcohol. Yao Ying continued to wash the equipment and hands with alcohol, and the preparations were all completed. Liu Yao took out a pair of surgical gloves from the space and put them on, and picked up the freshly sharpened knife. Although it is already the smallest one in the Mei family, its size is close to 20 centimeters long. Through the gloves, the steel blade also has a soft and slippery feeling, which makes people a little uncomfortable. It used to be a good meat pick, sharp enough that it was difficult to grasp after the wooden handle was removed for cleaning reasons. The argument with the response team before coming had a side effect: there was no time to make a list. I really should have brought some scalpels. Liu Yao thought that although he could think of bringing two pairs of rubber gloves for surgery, he took it for granted that the knife of this world could be transformed to be used as a scalpel. The response team in the dispute did not think of this need, let alone the use of sutures.

Liu Man, who was watching from the sidelines, handed over a white cloth to wipe his sweat in time and helped wrap it around the handle of the knife. felt that the knife in his hand was much easier to use, and seeing his daughter staring at him with a white cloth to wipe sweat, Liu Yao began to have a little confidence.

When everything was ready, the first incision of the operation was cut. Despite all the mental construction, the feeling of cutting open the skin and muscles is still tooth-sore. It seems that modern surgery is very necessary to cover the body and expose only the wound. Fortunately, all the people who watched the excitement were driven away in advance, which brought another benefit: no one saw his embarrassment. And Mei Jiaju, who had already fainted with alcohol, woke up again in the sharp pain of the first cut, but fortunately he could still insist on biting the wooden stick in his mouth and not shouting. The beginning of things was not smooth at all, and Liu Yao was a little scrambling. I had to force myself to keep cutting. Liu Man didn't dare to look at the poor man's expression at first, but the picture of the cut wound was even more terrifying, and it was not good to look back at the patient's face, so he could only look up at his father's face, tears dripping down, and a large piece of wet on the mask.

Liu Yao ignored the screams in his ears, stabilized his mind, squeezed the scalpel that was not in his hand, and slashed vertically from the place where the broken stubble of the bone was exposed to the direction of the soles of his feet, and carried the knife little by little like a sketch pen, so as not to accidentally cut off nerves or blood vessels. While cutting, Liu Yao was glad that he liked to cook at home and had a superficial perceptual understanding of the structure of muscles.

After carefully separating the broken musculature, Liu Yao felt that he and Mei Jiaju, who had fainted in pain for the first time, were very lucky. The broken leg bone pierced the flesh and looked scary, but there was only one break, and the fracture was quite neat, there were almost no broken bones, and it didn't seem to hurt the blood vessels. Compared with the human anatomy diagram taken out of the space, the nerve did not pass through the wound, and the motor and sensory functions should not be affected in the future.

Once the leg muscles have been cut sufficiently, the bones are grafted and sutured. Because there was no reliable steel plate and the stubble was fortunately very intact, the surgical option was direct bone fixation. After letting his daughter wipe her sweat, Liu Yao called the capable executive and asked him to hold down Mei Jiaju's pelvis.

When the senior executives first accepted the task, they looked as usual, but they didn't grasp the importance when they pressed it, and they woke up Mei Jiaju all of a sudden. Both of them looked at the wound at the same time, only to see the open calf belly flesh and completely severed bones, snow-white bones and bright red bone marrow. It's like a scene on a meat stall, and both faces turn white at once. Mei Jiaju snorted and fell into a semi-coma, but his body was still trembling. The executive's hands and feet softened, and he trembled violently. Liu Yao shouted: "Turn your head around!" Hold it down! The executives hurriedly closed their eyes and held their pelvis tightly. Yao Ying didn't seem to have any psychological obstacles at all, holding her ankle and pulling it down hard. Liu Yao carefully aligned the stubble, quickly pinched the flesh and skin, bandaged it with cotton cloth, picked up the planks and ropes and hurriedly tied them. The planks slide from time to time and are difficult to fix. Liu Man watched from the side, and promptly stuffed the rolled white cloth between the wooden board and the skin, and successfully solved the problem. After the binding was completed, Liu Yao picked up the needle and thread in the sea bowl and began to stitch up the wound. The alcohol-soaked needlework woke Mei up again, the sharp pain making him clench his teeth and the wooden stick almost chewed up. Touchingly, no matter how painful it was, the boy only clenched his teeth and gasped for breath, without shouting. Liu Man seized the opportunity to pull out the badly worn wooden stick when he opened his mouth to gasp, and stuffed a roll of cotton cloth into his mouth.

The operation is actually not complicated, Liu Yao seems to be very calm, advancing the process of the operation in an orderly manner, but his heart is very flustered, and the sweat is dripping like standing under the shower. What worries him the most is whether the bones that have just been connected will move their position after the stitches. As long as there is a slight move, it is a waste of work. While trying his best to fix the severed limb with a rope, he muttered to Yao Ying: "This doesn't need to be fixed with steel plates, I guess I am the only one with experience in both worlds." ”

Yao Ying's face sank like water, and she couldn't see her inner activities. Among all of them, Liu Man seemed to be the busiest, keeping in mind the requirement not to let sweat drip into the wound, constantly wiping sweat and wring out cotton cloths, and was in a hurry. Even so, sweat still soaked Liu Yao's eyes, and the vision in front of him blurred from time to time. Executives should have adapted to the impact of surgery and have been looking at it inquiringly.

Yao Ying bandaged the wound with the progress of Liu Yao's stitching, and after all the things were completed, she devoted herself to wiping sweat with Liu Man, and then with the process of stitching, she picked up a white cloth dipped in alcohol and wiped the place that had been stitched, which made Mei Jiaju die and come back to life several times.

After the wound was stitched up, it was found that no scissors were prepared. Liu Yao cut the stitches with a scalpel, while glad that he practiced the basic skills of sewing clothes at home, and the suture he had just completed was quite neat. Yao Ying still looked as usual, and asked while following the process of suturing and bandaging the wound, "Do you want an infusion?" ”

"I brought needles and rubber tubes, but we don't have glucose, so I'll give him a little bit of oral administration later." The young man should not lack physical strength and not have lost much blood. Now the key is infection, we don't have any antibiotics. As long as he doesn't get infected, he will definitely survive. If you get infected, there's nothing you can do. Liu Yao said tiredly. There was already a water stain on the ground, and it was sweat dripping from his body. Thinking of his special sweating physique, he earned praise from the teacher in the labor class when he was a child, and he should be able to add a lot of points to himself this time, even if the operation is not successful, maybe the plum landlord will not embarrass himself for the sake of this sweat. While thinking wildly, Liu Yao carefully took off his surgical gloves and told Liu Man to wash them in the warm boiled water in the cauldron, and quickly retract them into the space after drying.

The gloves were put away, which meant that the operation was over, Liu Yao pulled his wife and daughter to sit on the threshold, and instructed the senior executives to move Mei Jiaju and Sun Zhenggang to the hall together with the recliners, and ordered them not to untie them, and to ask themselves first if they did anything to Mei Jiaju.

"Sir, can you let the senior staff in?" The executive's family put down the recliner, also soaked with sweat, and asked softly with a tired look.

"Yes, please." Liu Yao said as he stood up. The success or failure of the operation is still unknown, no matter what, it will not hurt to make Mei Yuanwai leave a good impression on himself, and no matter what impression is established at this time, it is indelible.

Mei Xianzhuo stepped into the hall with one step, his voice was still calm, but his clenched hands trembled slightly, revealing the excitement in his heart: "Sir, is my son saved?" Mrs. May followed closely behind, holding a tray full of pastries and tea in both hands. Mei Xiang poked out half of her head outside the courtyard gate, looking at the unconscious Mei Xianzhuo with a nervous expression.

Liu Yao let go of Mei Xianzhuo's hands, took the tea bowl and drank it all, and said softly: "Whether you believe in God or not, go burn incense." I have done everything I can, and I can say that this is the best treatment in the world right now. The rest is up to God. ”

"Sir, what should we do next?" Mrs. May asked in a trembling voice.

"You have one thing to remember, no one is allowed to do anything to Jiaju without my consent, and everything must come to me and ask me. Now you go make a bowl of sugar water, put a little salt in it, and feed him right away. For the next ten days, he couldn't move in the slightest, and he had to urinate and urinate on the recliner. Eat a light and nutritious diet and pay attention to hygiene. If a person has a fever, wipe his face and body with water to cool him down. Everything else is just a matter of luck. ”

Seeing the relief and solemnity that alternately appeared on the faces of the two members of the Mei family, Liu Yao sat down on the threshold and said to the executives: "Boil two more pots of water, wipe Mei Gongzi's body, he has to keep it clean." My family is also going to take a shower. Put a bed next to the foal, and I'm going to accompany the patient. Oh, there was a bed in that room just now, and my wife and children were going to be with me. The executives were stunned for a moment, raised their eyes to look at Mei Xianzhuo, and hurriedly went to prepare.

As soon as the executive's house left, the girl walked in with a tray, staring at Liu Yao with big eyes and not speaking. There was a bowl of water, a jar of brown sugar and a jar of salt on the tray, and it seemed that Liu Yao was going to decide how much to put in it.

"What should be the concentration of glucose oral liquid?" Liu Yao muttered to his wife while putting sugar and salt according to his feelings.

Only then did the Mei family notice that the Liu family was sitting on the threshold, hesitated, and also sat down on the threshold, looking at their son motionlessly, watching Mei Xiang feed the sugar water into the patient's mouth one by one.

Liu Ze was carried into the yard by an old man, and saw the family shouting and laughing happily, shouting for his father and his father to reach out and pounce. The executive's family also walked into the courtyard with a load of hot water. The old man and the executive's family look very similar, obviously father and son.

The light slowly dimmed, and the twilight began to rise.

Two-year-old Liu couldn't stay at all, and after making out with his father, he ran around, and his sister Liu Man had to follow behind to protect him. Suddenly, I heard my mother call to take a bath, so I hurriedly picked up my younger brother and ran to the room to see that there was a large wooden basin with a diameter of more than one meter but a depth of only as deep as a soup bowl in the middle, and I couldn't help but be in a daze.

"We all used to bathe in this kind of tub when we were kids. Brother washes first, then you wash. If the water is not dirty, we adults will wash it again. Yao Ying said as she undressed her son.

"So we're going to wash four people in one basin?" Liu Man was a little frightened.

"In the past, when there was not enough hot water, this was the case. This time it shouldn't be, the host picked two large buckets of hot water next to it, enough for us. Besides, the water won't be very dirty either, because there is no soap. Liu Yao explained to his daughter.

"Have you washed it? This kind of wooden basin. Liu Man asked in surprise.

Liu Yao laughed and said: "This wooden basin bath, I haven't seen it after the 90s." Luckily, I'm 90 years ago, and I've been washing wooden pots for several years. ”

Yao Ying smiled helplessly and said, "I have also washed this kind of basin." In winter, a plastic cover like a round mosquito net is used, otherwise it will freeze to death. I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to bathe in a wooden tub again in this life. ”

"And then how do you get rid of the water? There's no sewer. Liu Man still didn't react.

"Haha, you have to scoop some of the water out first, otherwise it won't move, and then lift the wooden basin to pour. It is estimated that there are only a small part of the area of no more than ten cities in this world that has water and water, and you have to bathe like this for a long time. Liu Yao saw that his son was already squeaking and playing with water in the wooden basin, teasing his daughter happily, and then said: "But no matter how difficult it is, we must take a bath in time." It's not just about health, it's about dignity. In the future, we will not only pay attention to hygiene, but also pay attention to greeting people, and we must be polite in what we say and do. Civilization is what it means to be civilized. With that, he walked into the courtyard. The lanterns were hung in the dim light, and the dining tables and chairs were set up, and it seemed that they were going to eat in the courtyard. When I asked about the smell of the food, I remembered that I hadn't eaten any lunch, and I suddenly felt so hungry.

There was an omission in the reception of the Mei family, only the hot water was managed, and no one took care of the cold water. Yao Ying poked her head out and said that she would bring some cold water, Liu Yao thought about the girl's undeveloped body and the gray hair of the executive's father, and she must still go to carry water and wait for his wife and daughter to take a bath.

Yao Ying and Liu Man in the room quickly took a shower and found that the Mei family had prepared a change of clothes, but the clothes were very disappointing: they were all very wide and bloated, and the fabric was coarse, the color was dull, and the cut was not close-fitting. When you put it on, it just looks like a pocket full of apples. The two of them were holding their clothes, and they couldn't laugh or cry. Only Liu Ze looks good in ancient clothes: the baby's good-looking does not require crisp and close-fitting and the like, and traditional clothing makes children more like children, which reminds people of words such as family and inheritance.

"Fortunately, the clothes are clean, you smell it, it's all new fabric and the smell of sunshine." Yao Ying comforted her crying and laughing daughter, who was gesturing with a pair of huge panties.

"The clothes are not used to smell, they are so ugly." Liu Man put his clothes on his body and lay on the bed and didn't want to move.

Seeing that the meal was almost ready, Liu Yao came into the house, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but quip: "It's a good thing that the clothes are ugly." When we have our own textile industry, we will open a clothing store, and the business will definitely be good. Oh, the business opportunities are endless. ”

"Hurry up and take a bath, wash it and put on new clothes, and be an ancient man once and for all. However, we still have to have our own new house, with water and water, in order to live and work in peace. Yao Ying was very determined, and went to move the wooden basin for the bath, but found that she couldn't hold it at all.

Just now after the two ladies took a bath, Liu Yao almost fell down tired. I was reluctant to change the bath water this time, so I washed it indiscriminately, and forced myself to pour out the bath water, and I was almost dizzy with hunger before I cleaned it up, and I couldn't even hold the empty wooden basin, so I had to roll and move it to the wall to lean on. As soon as I looked up, I saw Mei Xiang hurriedly running in, and said with a flushed face: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I went to the kitchen to cook and forgot to come to serve Mr.'s family to take a bath." Mrs. May also followed behind, and also apologized one after another.

Liu Yao waved his hand and said softly: "I don't need your help in the future, as long as someone brings hot water every day." ”

"Every day?" The two ladies asked at the same time, surprised.

Liu Yao reacted, remembering his childhood when he washed the wooden basin, when he couldn't wash it once a week, so he said: "If you don't need to take a bath one day, let's tell Mei Xiang, okay?" ”

Mrs. Mei nodded, as if she wanted to say something, when she saw Yao Ying coming out with her son in her arms, she suddenly laughed: "My sister is so handsome." This son is really good-looking. Come on, let's go eat. ”
