When the Doctor Uses A Hack - Chapter 205: 206: What to Buy? (Requesting Monthly Pass)

Chapter 205: Chapter 206: What to Buy? (Requesting Monthly Pass)

Outside the operating room, a family waited anxiously.

During the wait, Xiao Yang remained silent, somewhat uneasy, and worried…

His wife quietly walked up behind him, gently patting Xiao Yang’s back, not saying much, simply placing her hand on his lower back.

The transfer of body heat often gave a feeling of reliance.

Xiao Yang looked up, saw the worry in his wife’s eyes, and smiled, “Wife, I’m okay.”

His wife sat down beside him, “Husband, don’t worry. We’ve made it through tougher times than this, what’s this in comparison? Besides, I’m here for you!”

Her words made Xiao Yang’s nose tingle, and tears nearly burst forth.

Turning to look at this down-to-earth woman, her arm still covered in sleeve protectors from rushing off from work, and her clothes that hadn’t been bought for years…

Thinking of this, Xiao Yang sighed, chuckling bitterly to himself, how useless he was!

Such a wonderful woman, following him through all the hardships.

Noticing, his wife lifted her hand to touch Xiao Yang’s messy hair, “Your hair has gotten long. It’s time for a haircut. Shall I do it when we get back home?”

Xiao Yang nodded vigorously.

Not much later, the doors of the operating room opened.

As Chen Cang and Xiao He came out of the operating room, Xiao Yang and his family hurriedly approached.

“Director Xiao, how did it go?” Xiao Yang’s eyes were filled with concern.

Xiao He, smiling reassuringly, said, “It’s fine, the surgery went smoothly, but he can’t go home right away. He’ll need to stay in the gastroenterology department for observation for a while.”

“Also, regarding the cost, let’s talk about that later. If we’re being precise, this was an iatrogenic injury, and the hospital also has a responsibility, so don’t worry about the expenses for now!”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang didn’t feel happy but instead looked alarmed and quickly shook his head, “No, no, Director Xiao, that won’t do. You’re an important person, not like us. We can’t delay your future because of our problems. If you run into trouble and get disciplined because of us, my dad would never forgive me!”

Even without money, Xiao Yang didn’t want to do anything against his conscience.

Although incidents like this were quite common in the medical field, Xiao Yang just couldn’t bring himself to overlook it.

He had made inquiries and understood after seeing the endoscopy room himself that it was indeed due to his father’s sudden abdominal twisting and turning during the surgery.

After all, his father had been uncomfortable in the esophagus for more than just a day or two.

Xiao Yang felt that his father was already sick, and even if the endoscopic incident had just occurred, it was due to his father’s own actions. He was well aware of what kind of person Director Xiao was—having helped him plenty as a fellow townsman.

Each check-up cost significantly less, and he even did them personally.

This was a huge favor!

Moreover, after his father’s mishap, Xiao He had run around arranging the surgery, something that Xiao Yang saw with his own eyes.

Director Xiao was very busy every day!

Xiao He’s father mentioned that Xiao He often worked overtime until eleven or twelve at night.

Every time they came, Director Xiao was warm and gracious, without putting on airs, and would even invite them to meals when he had the time.

For the Yang family, this was all deeply appreciated.

So, if Xiao Yang let Xiao He be punished because of his family’s issues, the guilt would be immense.

Back home, he would be scorned by the villagers.

So, they couldn’t allow Director Xiao to be burdened by their problems, as he was a capable person, and they couldn’t drag him down with them.

Xiao He gestured dismissively, “Don’t worry, I’ll handle these matters. Xiao Yang, you go with your father to the gastroenterology department.”

“By the way, you really should thank Dr. Chen. He’s your lifesaver. If it weren’t for Dr. Chen, today’s surgery would have been difficult,” Xiao He introduced to the Yang family, “And the surgery Dr. Chen performed was very successful. You can rest assured and focus on recovery.”

After saying this, Xiao He looked at Chen Cang gratefully. This was a debt he had incurred.

As soon as Xiao Yang heard this, he quickly bowed with his wife and children to Chen Cang, “Dr. Chen, for your great kindness, we are immensely thankful!”

Chen Cang was also a bit stunned and hurriedly returned the gesture.

“You’re too kind, too kind… It’s nothing, this is my duty,” Chen Cang quickly replied.

Chen Cang was indeed startled by the profuse gratitude.

Sometimes, facing his patients, Chen Cang really didn’t know what to do.

There were those who were grateful, those who despised, those who doubted, and those who trusted unconditionally, but no matter what kind of emotions were projected onto him, all Chen Cang could do was not let down the patients’ expectations.

Everyone who comes to the hospital does so with unease and anxiety, deep down they’re all hoping to be cured.

There are always bad people at any time.

But you can’t doubt the whole world just because of a few bad people.

The saying goes, ‘one rotten apple spoils the whole barrel’, but if you actually remove the rotten apple, what you’re left with is still a pot of delicious soup.

If you overly magnify the mistakes, faults, and shortcomings, how can life be wonderful?

As a doctor, you should still maintain a level-headed mindset.

No matter what kind of patients you face, you should be composed.

After leaving the operating room, Chen Cang and Wang Yong walked side by side when an old lady wrapped in a headscarf caught up to them and grabbed both men.

“Doctor, I am Old Yang’s daughter-in-law,” a distinctly hoarse voice came.

Chen Cang and Wang Yong turned around, taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly said, “Oh! Hello, ma’am, the surgery was very successful, what Old Yang needs now is rest, so don’t worry.”

The old lady kept nodding, trembling as she took out a wad of crumpled money from her pocket, pulled Chen Cang’s hand, and stuffed it in.

The old lady’s face was full of embarrassment and apology as she lowered her hand and rubbed the corner of her clothes, with a touch of timidity on her face, “Doctor, please don’t disdain it, this is my little way of showing gratitude, it’s really quite modest, I’m embarrassed…

Chen Cang was stunned, looking at the rolled-up money unfold, all in ten and five yuan bills, along with some one yuan bills. The money was a bit moist, probably from being clutched by the old lady for a long time.

The old lady hurried away after speaking.

Chen Cang looked at the bunch of coins in his hand, glanced at Wang Yong, and felt a mix of emotions.

They never expected that the first ‘red packet’ they received in their lives would look like this!

A wad of money, totaling more than sixty yuan, Chen Cang counted it and sighed.

Looking at Wang Yong who was also unsure of what to do, he asked, “What should we do?”

Wang Yong shook his head: “I don’t know!”

Chen Cang suddenly asked, “What if… we buy something and send it up?”

Wang Yong was taken aback, “Buy what? He can’t eat or drink anything lately, it’s pointless to buy anything.”

Struck by a sudden inspiration, Chen Cang suggested, “How about we buy some fat emulsion amino acid glucose injection?”

Wang Yong almost laughed out loud!

“Teacher Cang, you’re really thoughtful!”

Chen Cang smiled, thinking it was a good idea.

[Ding! Mission complete, helped Xiao He with Old Yang’s treatment! Rewards: 1. Randomly acquire a skill from Xiao He; 2. Affection from Xiao He +10; 3. Skill points +2.]

[Ding! You have acquired Xiao He’s skill: Endoscopic Hemostasis, advanced level!]

[Endoscopic Hemostasis, advanced skill, special effect: precise hemostasis!]

Chen Cang was delighted, this skill was very good.

Currently, the most reliable method of stopping digestive tract bleeding is endoscopic hemostasis.

Using the Sengstaken-Blakemore tube for compression hemostasis is useful, but the effect and efficiency are not really that high.

Endoscopic Hemostasis, on the other hand, is different, it allows for precise location of the wound, and the bleeding can be stopped directly with titanium clips, quickly and effectively.
