Chapter 276 Preparing for Surgery
Chapter 276 Preparing for Surgery
These words made the old man blush.
Indeed, the elderly couple could only afford to spend twenty yuan a month at most, how could they possibly spend more than forty yuan?
But the old man couldn't say these things. After stammering for a while, Ye Anjia left first, citing work as the reason.
The old man sets aside thirty yuan of his retirement pension each month for Yang Chunhua to cover her daily expenses.
Actually, it mainly involves buying grains, oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar.
Of course, Yang Chunhua knew that the old couple must have saved some money, but she couldn't ask for it directly. She would just let Ye Fugui say that he wanted to eat meat, and then let the old lady spend her own money to buy the meat.
Since the old lady doted on her grandson, Yang Chunhua didn't feel she had done anything wrong.
Ye Wangjia was naturally unhappy that he couldn't get any benefits from the second wife this time.
But there was nothing he could do, no matter how unhappy he was. They had been separated for so many years, and he simply didn't have the face to go and cause trouble.
Ye Hehua officially started work, and her first month's salary was eighteen yuan. If she could become a full-time employee in the second month, her salary would increase to twenty-six yuan. After that, she would just have to wait for her performance evaluation.
A cloth repairman is considered a skilled worker.
Because Ye Hehua got a job, she became a city resident, which meant she was now receiving government pay.
Ye Hehua's monthly grain ration was 28 jin, and she would also receive an irregular amount of cloth coupons, oil coupons, sugar coupons, and so on each month.
Liu Erniu was more motivated to work from home, while Liu Zhengang gritted his teeth and studied hard to get a high school diploma so he could go and live with his cousin.
Even the village's sixth grandfather would receive packages from Ye Nuan three or four times a year, which made many people in the village extremely envious.
Don't underestimate these few packages; they're enough to make the whole village speak well of Ye Nuan.
The Ye family originally came from this village, but Old Man Ye's reputation wasn't very good.
However, Ye Anjia and his children have a good reputation. Even though Ye Nuan is not around, Ye Feng and Ye Hai will come to visit Ye Hehua during holidays.
Relatives are relatives if they visit each other.
If there is no contact, even the closest blood ties are useless.
Look at Ye Hehua, she delivered grain to her second brother in the city a few times back then, and that's how she got this job.
I wonder how many people are so envious they can't sleep at night!
Ye Nuan has already sent Li Minghui to the military hospital. Her physical condition is improving, and she can have knee surgery now.
Because Li Minghui was admitted to the orthopedic surgery department, Ye Nuan would also have to go to the orthopedic department two or three days a week.
Tsai Ing-wen's condition has been brought under control, but the push she received last time did indeed worsen her illness.
Director Su is so anxious he's practically going bald.
Ye Nuan had no choice but to consult numerous medical books to see if there were any other ways to save Cai Ying's life.
That day, Ye Nuan and Duan Gang were discussing the patient's condition when Director Su rushed in.
"Ye Nuan, hurry up, go home and pack your things. We're taking the train to Beijing this afternoon."
"what?"
"What do you mean 'ah'? Hurry up and go! The hospital in Kyoto has introduced new equipment, and we've received a notification that Comrade Cai Ying is going to Beijing for surgery, and I'll be the lead surgeon. You'll be my assistant."
Ye Nuan's eyes lit up: "Really? Teacher, you didn't hear me wrong?"
"Of course not! You should go back and make preparations. Especially make sure the children at home are settled. Although I'm confident, I can't be sure without your help."
"Okay, teacher."
Ye Nuan was incredibly relieved at that moment; thankfully, she had weaned Xiao Liu.
Otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to go to Beijing this time.
Back home, Ye Nuan tidied up briefly, then held the child and spoke a few words to Li Qiang.
"I'm not home, so I'm sorry to trouble you, cousin. And Xiaogangpao and Yueyue, you'll have to take care of them too."
"It's alright, they're all good kids, and they help out with a lot of chores usually. Don't worry, when you come back, Xiao Liu will definitely have gained another pound or two."
"Okay." Ye Nuan was truly grateful to her grandmother; the old lady had been a great help.
What Ye Nuan didn't know was that Gu Hanchuan returned the moment she left.
Gu Hanchuan was going on a mission, and he would let his family know when he got back so they wouldn't worry.
As soon as he returned, Li Qiang said that Ye Nuan was going to Beijing. Gu Hanchuan thought about it again and again, and finally called Qi Chen.
“Neither Nuannuan nor I are home. Please try to come over every day if you have time. My cousin is the only one taking care of the child at home, and I'm worried about her.”
"I understand. She's staying in the family compound, what are you worried about?"
Even if they were human traffickers, they wouldn't dare to run into the family compound!
Ye Nuan, Cai Ying, and Director Su all traveled in soft sleeper berths, and even shared the same compartment.
The main problem is that Tsai Ing-wen's current condition is worse than when she first started treatment.
Cai Ying watched Ye Nuan pack up the silver needles and gave a wry smile: "I'm sorry to have troubled you."
"Don't say things like that. We're doctors; it's our duty to treat and save lives. Once we get to Beijing and finish the tests, we can perform the surgery. After the bullet is removed, you can be busy on the training field every day, just like Gu Hanchuan. Aren't you looking forward to it?"
Cai Ying smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words, Doctor Ye."
As soon as the group arrived at Beijing Railway Station, they were picked up by a military hospital vehicle. Cai Ying, in particular, was taken directly to the hospital lying down.
It will take at least two days for all the test results to come out.
So Ye Nuan and Director Su are currently mainly discussing surgical plans with the other doctors and making preparations.
Actually, Ye Nuan wasn't the surgeon, but she already knew all the necessary information. After she had some free time, she wondered if she should visit the old man.
After all, they had just arranged jobs for the Ye family.
Ye Nuan hesitated for a moment and then forgot about it.
She had just come out of her office when the head of orthopedics called her over for a consultation.
Ye Nuan's lips twitched. Didn't these people have any self-awareness at all?
She's not a doctor here, and the hospital doesn't pay her a salary!
Moreover, once Ye Nuan arrived at the orthopedics department, good heavens, she had only said that she needed to consult on two patients, but before she knew it, an entire afternoon had passed.
Alright, it's getting dark. Let's have dinner and then go back to rest!
Ye Nuan and Director Su both stayed at a guesthouse near the hospital, which was arranged by the Beijing Municipal Hospital.
Not only that, the money and tickets needed for three meals a day were also arranged.
Breakfast was eaten at the state-run restaurant next to the guesthouse.
Both of them ordered fried dough sticks and soy milk, along with a small dish of pickled vegetables.
I must say, these fried dough sticks actually taste pretty good.
Director Su finished his soy milk and looked completely satisfied.
"The surgical plan has been finalized, and some results will be available today. You must be very careful, as it is heart surgery, which is quite rare internationally. Moreover, no matter how detailed the examination is, until the moment of opening the heart, none of us can accurately determine the condition of the bullet and the heart."
