Ding Pingshun heard the door open and followed Sanniang's man Lu Huaian in. They were both stunned when they saw Ding Youtian coming out.
Ding Pingshun saw Jian Ning taking Ding Youtian in to help, but at that time his mind was full of thoughts about whether Sanniang would report him again. He didn't think much about what he saw, and now he was also surprised.
Ding Youtian felt that this matter was indeed embarrassing. Although some families would invite doctors to the delivery room to assist when a woman had a difficult delivery and the midwife was unable to handle it, most of them were older doctors, and there had never been a precedent of a young man assisting in childbirth.
Before he could organize his words to explain, Lu Huaian rushed into the inner room. He saw the baby lying next to Sanniang, "Boy or girl?" He walked quickly to the bed and asked.
"A boy, 7.7 jins." Jian Ning answered for Sanniang, then raised an eyebrow and said, "Why, if it was a girl, would you still be dissatisfied?"
"No, it's all the same, but a boy is better this time. We'll try for a girl next time." Lu Huaian was delighted as he looked at his fat son. "Jun's mother, look at him. He looks exactly like Jun when he was born."
Sanniang's wound was aching, burning, but within her tolerance. She glared at her man, "You only have eyes for your son. If it weren't for Madam Jian, we would both be facing death by now!"
"Sanniang's fetus is in an abnormal position. I should have waited for you to sign, but human life is more important than anything else. I couldn't wait for you to come, so I had to perform a caesarean section on her. Otherwise, both mother and child would be in danger."
Jane Ning told him.
"What's a caesarean section?" he asked.
"It didn't hurt when it was taken out by cutting open the stomach, but it hurts so much now." Sanniang couldn't help but shed tears as she spoke.
"Don't cry. Crying during confinement is bad for your eyes." Jian Ning hung up the IV bottle and told Lu Huaian, "Watch it carefully. If the water in here runs out, call me."
The clinic hasn't officially opened yet, but Carpenter Xu has already made two wooden racks for hanging IV bottles. The two windows in the inner room haven't been covered up yet. Fortunately, the windows are high and there's no wind today, so it's not a problem.
Lu Huaian came back to his senses after being disemboweled, and hurriedly stood up and bowed to Jian Ning, "Thank you, Madam Jian, for your amazing medical skills. You are truly the reincarnation of a bodhisattva, and a great benefactor to our family!"
Jian Ning is the master of the young master of Pu Ren Tang. She also saved Da Jun. Even Old Man Yang praised her highly. Lu Huaian knew all this.
At this moment, his gratitude was genuine and came from the bottom of his heart.
In her previous life, Jian Ning was an intern at the police academy when she was spotted by instructor Wu Yanxu. Later, when Wu Yanxu joined the special police force, he specifically asked her to join him. Because Jian Ning was skilled in traditional Chinese medicine, she was sent to the military hospital to study Western medicine.
But Jian Ning actually knew Western medicine. Her master, Grandma Wu, was known as the "Ghost Hands of Divine Needle" because her expertise in Traditional Chinese Medicine far surpassed that of Western medicine, and Jian Ning also studied Western medicine with Grandma Wu. With a solid foundation in Traditional Chinese Medicine and a thorough understanding of the human body's organs and meridians, she was already able to suture wounds and dissect corpses before even entering the military hospital.
She quickly stood out in the military hospital and became a leading physician. However, because the military hospital was also open to local residents, she had become numb to the gratitude of the patients' families after three years.
It was the same now. There was no extra expression on her face. She took a bottle of iodine and a pack of cotton swabs and gave them to Lu Huaian. She told him that the caesarean section did not squeeze the birth canal, and the residual fetal toxins in the body would cause papules on the lower body. She told him that if Sanniang got papules later, he could just use a cotton swab to drop iodine on Sanniang and wipe it.
After explaining Lu Huaian, Jian Ning told Sanniang that the most painful time for the wound would be two or three hours in the afternoon, and then it would gradually ease. If the pain was unbearable, she could consider using a pain stick. Everyone has different sensitivity to pain, so she told her not to endure it.
Sanniang felt that she could do it.
Jian Ning nodded, and when she looked up, she saw Ding Pingshun peeking out of the outer room. She walked over to him and asked, "What's going on?"
"No, nothing's wrong. Sheng's mother asked me to come and see if Sanniang and her son are okay."
"Everything is fine. Today, thanks to Brother Pingshun for sending her here in time. Thank you for your hard work."
After hearing what Jian Ning said, Ding Pingshun felt relieved. It seemed that Sanniang didn't sue him again, and Jian Ning didn't seem to take the previous sue to heart, otherwise she wouldn't have spoken to him so politely.
Ding Pingshun was a typical suspicious person. Sanniang didn't even recognize Ding Youwang. Even if Jian Ning knew he had taken someone to her house for a drink, she wouldn't blame him for it. As for secretly stuffing food into Ding Sheng's schoolbag, Jian Ning didn't care at all. If there was something good that was not enough to share, it was understandable that he gave it to his son.
Chang and Ding Pingshun were both frugal people who valued money and material things more than she and Tian. However, Chang gave Dabao a long gown the day before Dabao started school. Jian Ning always remembered this favor. For Chang's sake, as long as Ding Pingshun didn't do anything else out of line, she wouldn't do anything to him easily.
The two men left the clinic one after the other. Mr. Ding San drove out of the yard in a horse-drawn carriage loaded with several jars of wine. For some customers whose demand was not large, they would also provide delivery services if they paid some transportation fees.
"What's going on? Is it over?" Mr. Ding had just heard Tian say that Jian Ning had performed a Caesarian section on Sanniang. "So, is she really okay after her belly was ruptured?"
His face was filled with disbelief.
Tian and the others also asked Ding Youtian, and only dared to make it public after knowing that Sanniang and her child were safe. Before that, they did not dare to make it public.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm afraid no one in the world can match your medical skills, sister-in-law." Ding Pingshun said flatteringly.
"It's not as weird as you think. It's just a very common operation. I remember when I was a child, the hermits in our area would perform such operations. It's nothing surprising." Jane Ning said as he walked forward and stroked the horse.
This horse is really worth buying. Under the careful breeding of Mr. Ding San, it is now fat and strong, with neat mane and four hooves that look tough and powerful. Mr. Ding San is sure that it is a steed that can run a thousand miles.
Uncle Ding San also named the horse Huoyan. Except for sleeping, he was basically inseparable from Huoyan. But Huoyan seemed to know that Jian Ning was its owner, and also remembered that it was Jian Ning who performed the surgery on it. Every time it saw Jian Ning, it was extremely affectionate and kept rubbing its head against Jian Ning.
"Okay, follow Uncle San to deliver the goods. I have to go to work too." Jian Ning patted it, went in to get some water to wash his hands and face, and replaced Brother Qiu.
The Tian family and the others hadn't gotten anything out of Ding Youtian before, so now they were asking Jian Ning about it. They couldn't understand it, as cutting open a stomach and sewing up a hand were two different things. They were really curious about how a person could survive after having his stomach cut open.
In the clinic, after Lu Huaian calmed down from his excitement, he also questioned Sanniang, asking her why Ding Youtian was in the delivery room?
Sanniang knew that he was narrow-minded, and thought that even if Ding Pingshun knew the truth, he would not say anything if she let him go today, so she lied and said that Ding Youtian came in to deliver the IV drip after Jian Ning had finished the operation.
It is easy to tell a lie, but it takes countless lies to cover it up afterwards. Sanniang didn't know at this time that she had buried a huge hidden danger for herself.
