Chapter 280 Caesarean Section
Song Yanxi paused and said without turning back, "If what Princess Shihan said is true, half of the doctors will be eliminated."
Not to mention those far away, she herself is one of them.
"You!" Zhuang Shihan choked, suppressing the urge to curse. She stared at her back and said coldly, "You can't save her."
Xi Lin turned around and looked at her with eyes so cold that it seemed as if he wanted to kill her.
He glanced at Song Yanxi and said coldly, "Just focus on saving people. Leave her to me."
As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to walk out.
But then Song Yanxi said, "She's right."
Xi Lin froze in his tracks and looked at her in disbelief. "Did you hear what she just said?"
"There are records of cesarean section to deliver a child in ancient books."
"Are you crazy?"
Xi Lin closed the door with his backhand. As he turned around, his voice trembled unconsciously. "Can you see the last four words written in the record?"
Both mother and child suffer.
He didn't even dare to say it directly, for fear of scaring the frightened and terrified woman in labor.
Song Yanxi placed the needle steadily and said in a deep voice, "We have no choice but to take a gamble."
The mother was still conscious. She vaguely guessed something from listening to their conversation and couldn't help but burst into tears.
She tightly grasped the hand of the woman next to her and said weakly, "Sister, please help me, please help me."
The woman nodded quickly, gritted her teeth as if she had made up her mind, let go of the woman's hand and knelt down towards the few people.
She kowtowed and said, "This girl is a miserable person. Her husband died at the hands of the Liang people half a month ago. They have been married for only a year, and the baby she is carrying is the hope of the whole family.
Please be kind and save the baby in her belly, even if it’s just to save the baby…”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xi Lin interrupted her hastily. He looked at the pale woman lying on the bed and said in a deep voice, "It's going to snow outside soon. If anything happens to you, this child won't survive the winter."
The woman in labor instantly widened her eyes, opened her mouth and gasped, saying intermittently: "I... I can't... I can't die."
The woman, who had been about to scold him for being so cold-blooded, quickly said, "It's better for the child to go with you. It won't have to suffer in life. After all, this orphaned child is worse than a beggar on the street. Everyone who sees him would want to kick him."
“No…I can’t…”
"Don't worry, girl. The baby's position is not right. If you push too hard, you will hurt not only the baby but yourself as well."
Doctor Li cut another piece of ginseng and put it in her mouth, advising her, "Bite it tightly and don't drop it again. It might save your life at a critical moment."
He helped the woman in labor tuck in the corners of the quilt, then winked at Song Yanxi, indicating that they should go out and talk.
The mother had already lost all her strength and was now relying solely on her own willpower to hold on to her last breath. She could no longer withstand any stimulation.
To put it bluntly, a discouraging word could even cost her life at any time.
The moment the door was opened, Zhuang Shihan, who was putting her ear against the door to listen to the noise, lost her balance and fell straight in.
Song Yanxi pulled her in time to prevent her from falling on her face.
Zhuang Shihan blurted out, "Thank you very much."
After he finished speaking, he realized that his words were too hypocritical. Just as he was about to make amends, he suddenly heard Song Yanxi say, "Princess, come along too."
Upon hearing this, a hint of joy flashed in Zhuang Shihan's eyes and she quickly followed.
She said impatiently, "I've seen her condition. It's very dangerous. If she doesn't have surgery quickly, she won't be able to be saved."
After walking a little further away, Song Yanxi turned to look at her and asked, "How sure are you?"
"Ninety percent!" Zhuang Shihan raised her chin slightly, her eyes full of determination.
It was just a cesarean section, she had done it before, it wasn't a difficult operation.
It works in modern times, and it works here too.
If she had not spent most of her time in the army and met only grown men, and the few pregnant women she met during the free clinic were unwilling to be the first to try it, this technology that benefits the majority of women would have been promoted long ago.
They are all so stubborn. With her around, I really don’t know what they are afraid of!
Meeting her confident eyes, Song Yanxi asked uncertainly, "Are you 90% sure of the size?"
Zhuang Shihan was about to say yes, but then she thought of the soldiers who had died from bacterial infections before, pursed her lips and said, "90% for the small ones, 50% for the big ones."
Seeing that Doctor Li was about to speak, she spoke first, "Think carefully. If you don't perform the operation, you won't even have a 10% chance of success."
She looked at Song Yanxi, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Am I right?"
Although they couldn't stand her arrogance, they had to admit that she was telling the truth.
The woman in labor is already exhausted and is now relying on ginseng slices and her will to survive, which may end at any time.
Even if Song Yanxi used silver needles to help her adjust the fetal position, she would not be able to give birth in her current condition.
They could wait, but the baby in her belly could not.
If the child was younger and some means could be used, Song Yanxi would definitely persuade her to give up the child, and not risk losing both mother and child just to keep a wish.
The child is already full-term, and whether it succeeds or not, she has to bear the consequences.
Rather than waiting until the fetus dies in the womb and the mother dies from excessive blood loss, it is better to take a gamble.
At least, there's still a half chance, isn't it?
Song Yanxi's heart sank. She looked up at Zhuang Shihan and said coldly, "The surgery is fine, but the three of us must be present."
"impossible."
Zhuang Shihan crossed her arms, looked her up and down, and said with contempt, "Even if you want to steal my skills, you should go out and ask around. Everyone in this town knows the rules of my medical treatment."
Song Yanxi asked, "What are the rules of the Divine Doctor Valley?"
Hearing the words "Divine Doctor Valley", Zhuang Shihan straightened her back even more, and said with pride in her eyes: "The sect has rules, I dare not disobey."
"I see."
Song Yanxi nodded and suddenly took two steps forward.
The distance between them suddenly shortened. Zhuang Shihan subconsciously leaned back and said with a look of vigilance, "You'd better not do anything. Otherwise, I won't be able to hold the knife tightly with these two hands."
"How can you be a doctor if you threaten a patient's life?" Doctor Li was so angry that he wanted to slap her.
She was self-aware and knew that if she acted like this, she would be beaten to death sooner or later.
He has no conscience and is not afraid of being struck by lightning!
Zhuang Shihan said nonchalantly, "Don't you guys keep saying I have no medical ethics, that this is not okay and that is not okay?
It just so happens that I'll just follow your wishes and confirm this point."
She looked at Doctor Li, her eyebrows slightly raised, "Why, are you dissatisfied?"
"You!" Doctor Li was so angry that he wanted to strangle her to death.
But right now, he had to have her, and he didn't dare to say a single harsh word. He was so angry that he beat his chest and wished he could faint so that he couldn't see or hear anything.
Zhuang Shihan scratched her ears and said impatiently, "Have you considered this? There's not much time left for the person inside."
Doctor Li said, "You are both women..."
Zhuang Shihan interrupted him, "Stop blackmailing me here. Just tell me, should this person be treated or not?"
