In the afternoon.
The humidity in the air had lessened a little. The sunlight that had parted the clouds was yellow and bright, as if there was a graceful body twisting in the haze.
Two dirty SUVs slowly drove over from the other side of the street, making a lot of noise. The way they swayed back and forth made them look like ducks in the park who had just finished a day's work in the park.
The off-road vehicle stopped under the wooden sign of the Bazhaixiang branch of Cangping District Hospital in Yun Hua City. A group of six people got off the vehicle one after another. They were also swaying, and all of their faces were pale. They looked as if they could immediately be sent to the emergency room.
"The patient is fine. Don't worry. Let's go in and take a look." The person who got out of the first car was an associate chief physician from the provincial hospital. He was wearing a white coat that was a little dirty.
The road from the village hospital to Bazhaixiang was not far, but the journey was very bumpy. Everyone had gotten out of the car to help more than once.
The clothes of the patient's family members were stained with mud, and their expressions and gazes were even more anxious.
"The operation went smoothly. I'll take you up." Zuo Cidian, who was in charge of welcoming them, did not say much. He led the group straight to the ICU on the second floor, which had been renovated.
Compared to the other patients who stayed in a six-person room, there were only three patients in the intensive care unit. There was also a nurse sitting in the corner, writing down notes and taking care of the patients' conditions.
"The patient is fine. You can rest assured." The associate chief physician of the provincial hospital briefly checked the patient's condition, and his expression changed slightly. Then, he put on a smile and comforted the patient and his family members in an amiable manner.
When the patient's family saw that the surgery was over and the patient was lying well, they were naturally happy.
"Thank you, doctor. Thank you, Associate Director Deng …"
"On behalf of my family, thank you …"
"It's good that he's fine. It's worth spending so much money on a helicopter."
Associate Chief Physician Deng from the provincial hospital smiled warmly no matter what the patient's family said.
He even spoke up for Yun Hua Hospital and said, "It's good that you're fine. Come out after you take a look at the patient. I think this place has been changed into an intensive care unit. We all abide by the rules, and your patients also abide by the rules. The patients will recover quickly. "
The senior nurse in the special care unit could not help but look at Associate Chief Physician Deng and nodded at him.
Since they were not from the same hospital, he was already being polite.
The patient's family member agreed, but he was still a little reluctant.
Associate Chief Physician Deng was still smiling, but he said to Cai Qiong, who was beside him, "Old Cai, come with me."
Cai Qiong's expression changed, but he stubbornly followed the man out of the intensive care ward.
"Find a place where we can smoke." Even though the associate chief physician was only one rank higher than Cai Qiong, he was the leader of the treatment group and Cai Qiong's superior.
It was also because the other directors did not want Cai Qiong, who was talkative and weak, so they threw the job to him, who had less experience.
Cai Qiong, who had guessed that he would be scolded, had no interest in talking. He walked forward silently, found a corner, and stopped.
Associate Chief Physician Deng's expression changed slightly. He thought to himself, 'You don't speak when it's time to speak …'
He followed her to the corner, took out a cigarette, looked up, and saw the words "Spare Room".
Associate Chief Physician Deng felt a surge of anger, but he suppressed it and put away the cigarette.
"You're not going to smoke anymore?" Cai Qiong frowned. "If you're not going to smoke, why did you run so far?"
"Smoking in front of the Spare Room? Are you crazy?" Associate Chief Physician Deng said and waved his hand. "Let's not talk about this …"
Cai Qiong did not think before he spoke, and he casually provoked, "Smoking is also prohibited in the office, but you still smoke every day."
"How can it be the same?"
"We don't smoke, so we all look the same."
Associate Chief Physician Deng gritted his teeth and silently said, "I don't quarrel with idiots." Then, he slowly asked the key question, "Didn't I ask you to send the patient back to Yun Hua Hospital? Why did you let Ling Ran perform the surgery? "
"You said that I should follow the patient to the Bazhaixiang hospital branch to see if Yun Hua Hospital could perform the surgery, and if not, transfer him back to Yun Hua Hospital. In the end, Yun Hua Hospital could perform the surgery, so what could I do … "Cai Qiong spread his hands, indicating that he did not want to be the scapegoat.
Associate Chief Physician Deng was so angry that he almost laughed. "Do you not understand human language? Is that what I meant? "
"I basically repeated what you said, and there were also …"
"I …" Associate Chief Physician Deng gritted his teeth and said, "I asked you to go through the formalities at the Bazhaixiang hospital branch, and then transfer the patient back to Yun Hua Hospital, understand? Who asked you to let the people from Yun Hua Hospital perform the surgery? "
"Don't you shift the blame to me!" Cai Qiong shouted, "That's not what you said in the beginning. What's wrong? Doctor Ling finished the surgery, and you lost face, so you're looking for trouble with me?"
If it were not for the fact that he hurt his hand, Associate Chief Physician Deng would have used his fist.
It was too tiring to talk to a dummy.
Associate Chief Physician Deng took a few breaths and forced himself to hold back. He asked, "Did they send a lot of equipment over?"
"Yes, didn't I take pictures?" Cai Qiong answered every question, but he always found an angle that made people unhappy.
"So … the surgery went smoothly?"
"It went smoothly. That Ling Ran … Doctor Ling …" Cai Qiong suddenly felt a little sentimental, but his pride as a doctor from Yun Hua Provincial Hospital made him unwilling to praise the people from Yun Hua Hospital.
Associate Chief Physician Deng immediately understood what Cai Qiong meant, but he did not think much about it. He only smiled faintly. "No matter what, he's a freelance surgeon who went to Beijing. How can he make mistakes during hepatectomy in a well-equipped operating theater?"
Cai Qiong chuckled and looked at Associate Chief Physician Deng's expression, but it was a little thought-provoking.
Associate Chief Physician Deng suddenly felt that Cai Qiong was very annoying. Not only was he annoying, but his face was also annoying.
"Old Cai." Associate Chief Physician Deng squeezed the cigarette box, and the smile on his face disappeared.
"Go ahead." Cai Qiong put on a fake smile. He was experienced and knowledgeable, and he was not afraid of those things.
Associate Chief Physician Deng flashed a smile of someone who was not afraid of leaking urine all the time. "The higher-ups want us to go down, so our group sent you."
Cai Qiong's eyelids twitched. "Where?"
"Huang Village." When Associate Chief Physician Deng said this word, he suddenly felt refreshed.
Cai Qiong was stunned. Huang Village was located in the mountains in Bazhaixiang, and he was a doctor who grew up in the operating theater. What could he do if he was sent to a place that did not even have an infirmary?
"Work hard when you're there." Associate Chief Physician Deng did not say anything else. He turned around and left.
Cai Qiong stared at Associate Chief Physician Deng's back, gritted his teeth, and said slowly, "When Doctor Ling performs surgeries, he's more than twice as good as you are when it comes to suturing."
Associate Chief Physician Deng was most proud of his suturing skills. When he heard this, he paused for a moment before he walked away as if nothing had happened.
Cai Qiong felt refreshed, but after he felt refreshed, he felt empty.
"I said the wrong thing again." Old Cai sighed. He suddenly wanted to smoke …
In front of him.
Associate Chief Physician Deng turned a corner, but he slowly stopped. He thought about it and decided to go back to the ward on the second floor.
The patient's family had already been persuaded to leave. The nurse who stayed behind saw Associate Chief Physician Deng and greeted him politely.
"Let me take a look at your wound." Associate Chief Physician Deng continued to flash an amiable smile and lifted the hem of the patient's shirt.
