"It's a little beauty." The slightly bald husband wore the clothes provided by the hospital and looked at his daughter in the neonatal intensive care unit through the glass.
It had just been a day, and normally, no visitation would be arranged. However, because she was Ling Ran's patient, the director of the neonatal intensive care unit acquiesced.
In fact, even the director himself was willing to make things convenient for the bald man.
It was not every day that a happy story of a mother and her child having a cardiac arrest and being safe and sound would not happen every day. It might be difficult to hear such good news even after a few months.
For the doctors in the NICU who were buried in the ICU all year round and had their days and nights turned upside down, the story of Ge Huiyu and her daughter was more like spiritual nourishment. It allowed the doctors' inner world to not become barren and dry.
"She should be a little beauty." Zheng Pei still accompanied the slightly bald husband and smiled kindly.
The newborn in front of him was actually a little wrinkled, and it was impossible to tell the size of its eyes if it was not willing to open. However, since the patient's family said so, Zheng Pei would not refute.
"Observe for another two days. If there are no problems, you can bring the child back to your side," Zheng Pei reminded again.
The husband nodded repeatedly and then said through the glass, "Xiangxiang, when you and your mother go home, let's make a longevity tablet for Doctor Zheng, okay?"
Zheng Pei was stunned when he heard this and said hesitantly, "What's a longevity tablet?"
"It's a tablet with the name, birthplace, and other things written on it. Then, put it in a custom-made niche, and burn incense or something when you're free."
"Isn't that a longevity tablet?" Zheng Pei became anxious when he heard this. "I'm only in my thirties this year, and I don't deserve this!"
"It's not the same thing as the longevity tablet you mentioned." The slightly bald husband waved his hand casually and said, "In my place, it's only a hundred RMB to provide an oil lamp. It's a little more expensive to provide a tablet, but it's not that expensive. The main thing is to carve a few more words. Nowadays, we usually use machines to carve them. If you're particular about it, I can personally carve it for you. Or do you want to make it into a relief sculpture? It'll be very beautiful. "
The corners of Zheng Pei's mouth twitched a few times. "I forgot to ask, what is your occupation?"
"My family runs a temple."
"Temple?"
"Yes, a temple to worship the gods."
"Then what do you worship …"
"Mainly for our local gods. During festivals and on the birthdays of some Gods, we will also make temporary offerings so that the believers can express their emotions. " The bald husband sighed. "This time, our Xiaohui and Xiangxiang were destined to face a calamity, but they managed to get through it. Doctor Zheng, you're our family's benefactor. It's only right that we give you a longevity plaque … "
Zheng Pei quickly shook his head. "I don't have any credit. If there's any credit, it's Doctor Ling's credit. You don't have to erect a longevity tablet. We don't like it anyway. "
"Doctor Ling? The extremely handsome Doctor Ling Ran? "The man who owned a temple had accompanied the patient in the Emergency Department for a day, so he should know about Ling Ran's existence.
Now that time had passed, and there was no longer any risk of a medical dispute, Zheng Pei explained, "You might not know this, but the situation at that time was very dangerous. The patient's heart stopped for more than fifteen minutes. Doctor Ling rushed over and personally took command. Then, he personally went on stage to perform CPR. Only then did he manage to save the mother. In fact, at that time, some doctors had already suggested giving up on the adult and directly performing a Caesarean section to save the child … "
The man who owned the temple was stunned. When he thought of his wife almost dying, his hands could not help but tremble. "Fortunately, he didn't … Those doctors who make random suggestions should be arrested and sentenced!"
Zheng Pei wanted to laugh, but he did not dare to. He slowly shook his head and said, "I'm not talking nonsense. You know, if it weren't for Doctor Ling, there was a 99% chance that the adult would not have been saved. The child was already suffocating at that time. Immediately performing a Caesarean section could guarantee the child's survival to the greatest extent. "
"Wasn't the child saved as well?" The voice of the man who owned the temple was already hoarse.
"But this decision was made by Doctor Ling based on his own strength. If it were me, I might not be able to guarantee that the mother's heartbeat would recover even if I were given another ten minutes. " Zheng Pei panted and said, "The child's heartbeat stopped when he came out, so it was even more difficult. That's why I said that I don't have any credit. In such a dangerous situation, it was really because of Doctor Ling that the mother and the child were safe …"
The man's tears fell, and he muttered, "I didn't expect it to be like this …"
"It's not easy to treat your wife and child well in the future." Zheng Pei smiled calmly. When he was in the resuscitation room, he was indeed emotional, but Zheng Pei basically had no feelings for the patient's family. It could even be said that he was more on guard.
The feelings of the patient's family were naturally different. The man looked at the slightly weak newborn through the window, turned his head, and said very seriously, "I must set up a longevity plate for you. I won't put up a relief, I'll carve a statue for you!"
Zheng Pei was quite dumbfounded. "You can't do that, right? You'll die."
"Do you doctors still believe in this?" the man asked.
Zheng Pei was immediately stunned. He did not really believe in these things, but as a temple attendant, it was even more inappropriate for him to use such words as an argument.
Zheng Pei struggled and said, "Anyway, don't do it, I didn't do anything …"
"Doctor Zheng also made a very rare decision." A young nurse from the neonatal department came over at some point in time. Her face was red as she said, "At that time, the patient's condition was too dangerous. It was easy to offend a senior doctor if we asked him to come over. It was Doctor Zheng who took the risk to make the call."
"Don't say such things." Zheng Pei frowned. What was the use of bragging in front of the patient's family? So what if the patient's family was grateful? It would become a joke if it became material for a lawsuit.
The young nurse did not expect that her courage to tell the truth would be seen through by Zheng Pei. She could not help but pout. "You thick eyebrows and big eyes, you're only bold when you tease the young nurse!"
Zheng Pei was scolded until he was speechless. He did have thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he did like to tease the young nurse. He was indeed bold, but what was the meaning of saying these things in front of the patient's family?
The young nurse turned around and left.
The man who opened the temple chuckled and said, "Doctor Zheng, quickly chase after her. The young lady is angry."
Zheng Pei was stunned for a moment. "I'm not very familiar with her …"
"If you chase after her, you'll have a chance to make love to her." The man who opened the temple spoke in an experienced tone.
"Then … I'll go first." Zheng Pei thought about it seriously for a few seconds and decided to move.
"You go, you go." The man who opened the temple flashed a smile and said, "You don't have to worry about the statue. I'll definitely use good stone for you and gild Doctor Ling's statue. I'll hang a photo next to it. It'll definitely be beautiful."
Zheng Pei stopped in his tracks. He really wanted to ask why his statue was not gilded, but he swallowed the question when he thought about it. He could not afford to have a gold-plated statue with a photo.
