At half past two in the morning, Zuo Cidian arrived at Yun Hua Hospital.
He first changed into a set of scrubs, then used the seven-step washing technique to wash himself from fingertips to elbows. After that, he went to the kitchen in the lounge, opened the small bag he carried with him, and took out the kneaded dough, peanut oil, and eggs …
Zuo Cidian planned to make omelet pancakes today.
He had a good idea. Doctor Ling had flown back and forth yesterday, so he would definitely not have much appetite. Since he came to work in the hospital and woke up so early, he would definitely be hungry, so he had to choose a more substantial breakfast.
Omelet pancakes were a skill that Zuo Cidian was quite familiar with, and it was also his eleven-year-old son's favorite food. Sometimes, when his son did not see him for a few days, he would leave a note and wake up early the next day to make omelet pancakes with his father. After eating together, they would go to school and work together.
For Zuo Cidian, who often had to accompany his leaders all night long, waking up early was a little painful, but it was also quite heartwarming to have time together with his father.
Not like now …
Zuo Cidian stood in the kitchen in the waiting room and was stunned for two minutes before he continued to prepare.
The dough was kneaded with warm salt water. The rolling pin in the kitchen was used to roll the dough into a pancake, brush it with a layer of peanut oil, and roll it into a roll. Then, the two ends of the roll were pinched, placed vertically on the chopping board, and pressed down from top to bottom. Then, the roll became a round dough.
When this kind of dough was fried in oil, it would bulge in layers.
Not only did it look good, but it could also be filled with eggs. That was how the name "omelet pancake" came about.
Zuo Cidian waited quietly for a few minutes, and he saw Lu Wenbin come in with a small cart while shivering in the cold wind.
"Old Zuo is already here?" Lu Wenbin was a little surprised.
Zuo Cidian smiled and nodded. He was still guarding his pancake.
Lu Wenbin gave him a thumbs up. "I admire people who can wake up early the most."
As he spoke, he dragged the small cart in and opened it. There was a three-meter-long iron cabinet inside, and there was a pile of neatly arranged pig trotters.
"You went to the market again?" Zuo Cidian craned his neck to take a look and said, "You're a big customer now, so I asked someone to send you pig trotters."
"That won't do!" Lu Wenbin picked up a pig trotter very seriously and said, "I have to pick out the pig trotters one by one to ensure that each one is good. If you let them give it to you, most of them might be good, but you have to take a few that aren't that good. They're not bad either, just not good enough. You can't just send them back like that, right? "
Zuo Cidian could not help but nod when he heard that. This was indeed a problem.
Lu Wenbin took out the steel pot, added his own soup, and began to prepare.
By the time his pork trotters were cooked, Ling Ran had just entered the house.
"Doctor Ling, you're here so early today. Don't be too tired." Zuo Cidian quickly went forward to report to Ling Ran and handed him a cup of warm water.
"Thank you." Ling Ran took the water, sniffed it, and slowly drank it.
"Doctor Ling, you haven't eaten breakfast, right? I've prepared egg pancakes. Do you want to try them?"
Ling Ran rubbed his belly and said, "Alright …"
"You can just sit down." Zuo Cidian looked at him. Sure enough, he had not eaten breakfast, so he immediately perked up.
After making so many preparations, what he was most afraid of was that Ling Ran had already eaten breakfast.
The fire in the stove was turned to the maximum.
The big frying pan quickly heated up. Zuo Cidian threw the round dough that he prepared into the center of the pan, and the dough quickly swelled up like a small tent.
Zuo Cidian quickly cracked an egg, stirred it in a bowl, and sprinkled chopped green onions into it. Then, he used a pair of chopsticks to cut the edge of the pancake tent. When he picked it up, he sprinkled a bowl of eggs into it.
The chipped pancake quickly fell down. Zuo Cidian then used a pair of chopsticks to flip the pancake, and the core of the egg pancake was completed.
This kind of egg pancake could be said to be the highest level of mixing noodles and eggs. It was more egg flavorful than the noodles made with broken eggs, and it was more flour flavorful than the eggs made with mixed grain pancakes.
Most importantly, the fried eggs did not come into contact with the iron pan, nor did they come into contact with the oil. They were quite pure and clean.
"Old Zuo, you're very familiar with this." Lu Wenbin was a little dazed as he watched.
"Yes, I'm familiar with it." Zuo Cidian smiled.
Ling Ran also nodded slightly and said, "Master Level."
Zuo Cidian smiled when he heard that, and he said, "You flatter me, you flatter me."
In the blink of an eye, Zuo Cidian rolled the egg pancake again, put it on a small plate, and handed it to Ling Ran. He smiled and said, "I won't cut it. This egg pancake does not need to touch iron tools. It's more flavorful this way."
Ling Ran took the plate and held it in his hand. The first thing he smelled was the faint fragrance of noodles.
"It's very fragrant." Ling Ran told the truth and gently bit off a piece of egg pancake.
The solidified egg and the pure fragrance of noodles instantly filled Ling Ran's taste buds.
The combination of protein and starch would naturally produce a lot of calories, so it was criticized as unhealthy food. However, the combination of starch and protein was delicious.
This was especially true in the morning. Ling Ran had performed surgeries for a whole day yesterday. He took a five-hour round-trip flight and a two-hour car ride. It could be said that he was half dead tired. This was the time when he craved for calories the most.
Even a steamed bun when he was hungry would be delicious, let alone an egg pancake.
Ling Ran wolfed down the omelet pancake, and there was nothing left in it.
"I've prepared enough. It'll be a waste if I don't eat it. Please wait for a while," Zuo Cidian said and started to make the next one.
The egg pancake must be eaten while it was hot to taste the fragrance of noodles and eggs. It was very difficult to make the taste of the pancake on the outside. He could only use peanut oil to speed it up, and he could not use too much of it.
"Should I put some salted sauce on it?" As Zuo Cidian spoke, he grabbed a bottle, poured a large amount of homemade salted sauce on the fried pancake, and spread it on the pancake.
This was even more unhealthy for people who did not need to do heavy physical labor.
But for doctors who performed surgeries for ten hours a day, it was quite suitable.
Ling Ran ate three egg pancakes in a row before it was over. He was so satisfied that his body was steaming.
Lu Wenbin also got an egg pancake. He followed Ling Ran into the operating theater, and his body was also full of energy.
In the next few days, everything in Yun Hua Hospital was as usual.
Everything in Zhucheng Hospital was also as usual.
Until Friday morning, Zhang Pengyi saw with his own eyes that the elderly patient in the ward was wearing slippers and peeing on his own …
"Who allowed you to get off the bed?" Zhang Pengyi was shocked.
The elderly patient was also shocked. "Do I need permission to get off the bed?"
"Of course. You just had knee arthroscopy."
"Didn't you say it was a minimally invasive surgery?"
Zhang Pengyi felt like his head was about to explode. "Your hand is injured, and you can't touch anything for a few days. You just had knee arthroscopy, and you just got off the bed?"
"Why can't I touch anything when my hand is injured? I can't use other fingers … "
Zhang Pengyi realized that his thoughts were not on the same wavelength as the elderly patient's. Even the knee joint did not feel like they were on the same wavelength.
"How do you feel now?" Zhang Pengyi suppressed his nervousness and asked first.
"I don't feel anything. It's just a little painful." The elderly patient wanted to touch his wound, but Zhang Pengyi quickly stopped him.
"Let me take a look." Zhang Pengyi sat down and carefully examined it again. He was still worried and said, "Let's take another X-ray and a CT scan."
"Why would we take an X-ray for no reason? Is there any hospital that earns money like this?" The elderly patient was full of doubts.
Zhang Pengyi said, "Let's take it. You can rest assured after you take it."
He did not want to argue with the elderly patient. He got up and went to find the patient's family.
Under the persuasion of the family, the elderly patient reluctantly agreed to take the X-ray. He said, "Didn't you say that I can walk in two or three days? I just need to go to the toilet. It's only a few steps."
"You're strictly not allowed to carry heavy weights." Zhang Pengyi shook his head and said, "Two or three days is the fastest. Usually, it takes more than three days …"
After much persuasion, he sent the patient for a CT scan. Zhang Pengyi connected the PAD and placed it in front of his desk. He even set a notification tone for it.
About an hour later, the PAD in front of Zhang Pengyi made a "ding dong" sound.
Zhang Pengyi immediately opened the private message and opened the CT scan. He quickly read it.
