By this time, the nurse had finished her examination. "Doctor Xie, the patient's temperature is 38.5 degrees Celsius, pulse is 110 beats per minute, and blood pressure is 90/50."
Xie Liping had an idea in his mind. After not defecating or passing gas for a week, his stomach was so bloated again. It should be intestinal obstruction, which is a common disease in surgery.
The important thing now is that the old man is already in pre-shock, his mind is a little hazy, and his blood pressure is low.
So, the doctor gave the order, "Immediately do a blood test and abdominal X-ray. Oh, and also do an emergency biochemistry test."
After saying that, he looked at Chen Xia pitifully and said, "Mr. Chen, grandpa probably has intestinal obstruction and needs surgery."
Chen Xia was looking down at a crack in the floor of the emergency room, planning to find time to ask the General Affairs Department to come and see how to repair it, so he didn't even raise his head, pretending he knew nothing.
Only the grandmother held Chen Chun's hand and said, "Boss, can you guys…"
She couldn't continue. Thinking about the past, the old lady felt that it was all retribution. Now she was too embarrassed to beg her grandchildren.
Chen Chun was a lesbian after all, so she consoled her, "Grandma, if you're sick, get treatment. My husband and I will cover the medical expenses."
Grandma and Yang Guanshan and his wife all breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. In the eyes of the farmers, the big hospital in the city was simply not a place they could go to. Their family was poor and they had no money.
Old man Yang was taken for examination, and the report came out soon. The situation was not very optimistic. The X-ray confirmed that it was indeed a sign of intestinal obstruction, but the ascending colon and transverse colon were ignored.
In addition to high inflammatory indicators, the blood test results also showed anemia and hypoproteinemia, indicating the presence of chronic wasting disease.
But Xie Liping didn't look at all this carefully. After all, he was too young and lacked experience.
Since the results came out, the old man's condition was no longer optimistic, so the next day the director of the First Department of Surgery, Qiu Fangjue, personally performed the operation.
Chen Xia also did not attend the operation. He was in the office handling some official business the next day. It was just an intestinal obstruction, nothing serious.
Gu Lin didn't know if she was scolded by her mother, but she stayed outside the door with her grandmother and Chen Chun during the operation, doing her duty as a good granddaughter-in-law.
A few hours later, Director Qiu called:
"Xiao Chen, let me tell you, the operation is over. During the operation, we found that part of the greater omentum was adhered to the ileocecal region and the original incision, forming an angle. The entire small intestine was severely dilated, and there was a small amount of light yellow exudate in the abdominal cavity. The adhesions were broken down during the operation, and the terminal ileotomy was performed to reduce pressure. Don't worry."
"Hey, thank you, Director Qiu. I'll call you next time when we eat meat."
"Haha, kid, don't just talk the talk, hang up."
After Old Man Yang woke up from anesthesia, Yang Guanshan quickly called out, "Dad, this time it was thanks to Chen Chun and Chen Xia that they brought him to the People's Hospital for surgery, otherwise you would have lost your life. Look, the eldest and second son's wives are here to see you."
Old man Yang opened his eyes and glanced at Chen Chun and Gu Lin who were standing next to him. In fact, he had not recognized Chen Chun for a long time, and he had never seen Gu Lin before. Then he closed his eyes indifferently and did not look at him again.
This almost choked Gu Lin, who had been preparing for a long time and ready to perform well. It seemed that all the emotions he had been brewing for half a day were wasted.
Chen Chun smiled bitterly in his heart, "Grandma, since everything is fine, we will leave. Don't worry about the medical expenses, the second brother will pay for it."
After saying that, he didn't even look at the old man on the bed, and quickly pulled Gu Lin away.
Academician Chen is also a man with a bad temper.
I came here with great difficulty, but now I feel relaxed. Instead of wasting time on this old man, I might as well go back and observe a few more Helicobacter pylori specimens.
Grandma was so angry that she couldn't help but complain: "You damn old man, how dare you act so arrogantly now? How did you treat Bingkun in the past? And now you treat the eldest son and the second son's wife like this. If it weren't for them, you would have died long ago."
Since living with Chen Xia's family, the old lady has become more confident and dares to teach the old man a lesson. In the past, she would definitely get a beating, but now the tiger is already a sick cat, so she is not afraid.
When Yang Guanshan and Yuan Guijuan saw Chen Chun and Gu Lin leaving without looking back, they really wanted to call them.
He had heard long ago that after his nephew's family moved to the city, the plum garden in Ke Town became empty, so could he rent it out to live in? But Chen Xia didn't show up that day, so he didn't have the chance to talk to her.
What's there to be embarrassed about, shameless person?
Just when everyone thought the operation was successful and that they would be able to be discharged from the hospital soon, Xie Liping came hurriedly on the third day.
"Mr. Chen, your grandfather isn't feeling well. He's had intermittent, worsening abdominal pain these past few days, and his abdomen is swollen again. There's a lot of exudate coming out of the surgical incision, and even after changing the dressing three times an hour, there's still a lot of exudate. What should we do?"
While sorting out the bills from the General Affairs Department, Chen Xia asked without looking up, "Is it postoperative intestinal paralysis? Is there a possibility of full-thickness dehiscence of the incision?"
"I don't know. Director Qiu is on a business trip to Jinting County these days. You should go and take a look."
"You only have Director Qiu in the First Surgery Department. Isn't Old Liu here?"
"Director Liu went back to his hometown in the countryside to celebrate his father's 80th birthday."
Chen Xia threw the bill aside and said, "Are you guys in the First Surgery Department not going to make a living? Forget it, I'll go with you."
At this time, Yang Guanshan also rushed in: "Second brother, second brother, something's wrong. Your grandpa's stomach is getting more and more painful. What should we do?"
"Okay, okay, I'll go take a look first."
Xie Liping glanced at the impatient Chen Laoshi and was sure that he was not close to his grandfather, or even had a grudge against him, so he rationally shut up.
In the first surgery ward.
Old man Yang kept groaning in pain. The nurse took his temperature and it was 38.6 degrees. Grandma and Yuan Guifen were so anxious that they had no idea what to do. At this time, Chen Xia came in.
"Second brother, take a look at this old man. What's wrong with him? If he's about to die, we can quickly take him back."
"Mom, look what you said."
"What's wrong? He doesn't want treatment anyway, so staying here is a waste of Lao Er's money. Am I wrong?"
Chen Xia really wanted to give his grandmother a thumbs up, but with so many outsiders watching, if he dared to give her a thumbs up, everyone in the hospital would know tomorrow that he was a heartless, unfilial, unfaithful, and cold-blooded person.
Then the reputation will be completely ruined, and the character cannot be destroyed.
It was time to test Chen Xia's acting skills. He nodded gently, lifted the gauze on the incision, and a large amount of exudate immediately flowed out from the gaps between the stitches.
Damn it, the old man’s talent has been completely broken. His luck is really bad. It seems that character is still very important. Could it be that the ghost of Comrade Chen Bingkun is doing something wrong?
Thinking of this, Chen Xia's whole body was covered with goosebumps.
