Shen Wan had no choice but to nod. She shook Wang Xueyan's hand vigorously and said firmly, "Cousin, you will be fine. When you are better, we will go home together."
Wang Xueyan chuckled and said, "Okay."
Going home is too beautiful a word. She married far away and moved to the Sun family. She was afraid that her mother and father would worry, so she didn't dare to go home to visit them all these years. Sun Songwen was not in good shape, so she mentioned several times that she wanted to go back to her parents' home, but was always evaded.
Yu Jiao opened the lower layer of the medical box and picked out several sheep gut threads of different sizes. After having Yu Fuling clean her hands with pepper and salt water, she gave them to her to thread on the round needle and the corner needle respectively.
"Miss Yu, are you going to start?" Wang Xueyan was a little drunk. She looked at Yu Jiao quietly. She didn't know if it was the effect of the medicine or the alcohol, but her heart was particularly peaceful at this moment. She entered a very mysterious state, and her mind was light. She had been very tired in all these years of being cautious in her words and deeds and keeping a low profile. This moment was the most relaxing she had ever had in all these years since she married into the Sun family.
Yu Jiao observed her expression and saw that she was gradually falling asleep. Yu Jiao raised her hand and gently stroked Wang Xueyan's forehead, saying softly, "Go to sleep and have a good dream."
Wang Xueyan only felt that the warm hand on her forehead was very similar to the feeling of her mother touching her when she was a young girl waiting to be married.
She soon fell into a deep sleep, and in her dream she returned to the days before she got married, when she was young and unaware of the hardships of the world and lived in simple and happy days.
Seeing Wang Xueyan sleeping soundly, Yu Jiao placed all the instruments on a tray at the end of the bed and said to Yu Fuling, "Sister, I'm going to start the cesarean section. Please help me."
With the experience of reconnecting Xiao Ning's broken bones last time, Yu Fuling was much calmer this time and was more familiar with the uses of these instruments.
Yu Jiao wanted to take advantage of the surgery to teach in practice. She said, "The bowl of medicine I asked you to boil just now is Ma Fei San, which can give patients general anesthesia and pain relief. This way, they won't feel pain when the operation is performed. The dosage needs to be adjusted according to the individual's physical condition. I will tell you in detail later."
Yu Fuling's eyes sparkled and she nodded repeatedly.
Yu Jiao pointed at the area two or three fingers below Wang Xueyan's navel and said, "When a woman is pregnant, the uterus that nurtures the fetus will stretch and become thinner. Making an incision here in the lower abdomen will reduce bleeding. However, the specific location of the incision depends on the position of the fetus in the pregnant woman's belly."
While speaking, Yu Jiao had already skillfully used a scalpel to cut an arc-shaped incision on Wang Xueyan's abdomen, cutting through the abdominal skin, fat layer, fascia layer, separating the muscle layer, opening the peritoneum, and revealing the uterus inside.
Her movements were quick and skillful. As it was a living person's belly, Yu Fuling couldn't help but feel a little scared. But this time she had experience, and she always remembered that she had to help Yu Jiao and not delay her.
Seeing that the cut really didn't bleed much, Yu Fuling felt that Yu Jiao was truly a god.
Yu Jiao cut open the uterine serosa and tissue, and said to Yu Fuling, "This is the uterus that breeds babies. This method is not only used to remove dead fetuses, but can also be used to give birth to babies for women with difficult labor."
Yu Fuling was shocked and sighed after hearing this. It was really too difficult for women to give birth, and countless women died while giving birth. If this method were promoted in the world, who knows how many women's lives could be saved.
Just thinking about it makes it difficult. Without absolute confidence and medical skills, who would be bold enough to cut open a person's abdomen? If you are not careful, it would be tantamount to murder.
Yu Jiao quickly punctured the fetal membrane, handed the scalpel to Yu Fuling, and said, "Gauze."
Yu Fuling took the scalpel in one hand and handed the prepared white gauze to Yu Jiao with the other.
Yu Jiao gently sucked out the amniotic fluid with gauze, then took out the dead fetus and cut the umbilical cord.
Girls are always timid, and they are inevitably afraid when facing such a dead baby. Yu Jiao considerately did not let Yu Fuling handle it, and directly placed the fetus in the swaddling clothes that Wang Xueyan had originally sewed for the child.
Then he took out the placenta from Wang Xueyan's abdominal cavity, cleaned the uterine cavity with gauze, and checked for abnormal bleeding. Then he said to Yu Fuling, "Round needle."
Yu Fuling handed the round needle with catgut thread to Yu Jiao. Seeing that her smooth forehead was covered with sweat, Yu Fuling hurriedly took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the sweat off her forehead without delaying Yu Jiao.
Yu Jiao used surgical forceps to hold the round needle and sutured the uterus. She then checked Wang Xueyan's uterine appendages on both sides and found a cyst on her left appendage. She then said to Yu Fuling, "Scalpel."
She removed the small cyst. Seeing that she had cut out a bloody mess from Wang Xueyan's abdomen, Yu Fuling's face turned pale. She suppressed her nausea and asked in a trembling voice, "What is this?"
"Uterine adnexal cyst." Yu Jiao didn't have time to explain too much at the moment. She planned to give Yu Fuling more scientific knowledge when she had time in the future. After cleaning the abdominal cavity again, she said to Yu Fuling, "Change to a No. 2 round needle."
This was the order she had arranged when she asked Yu Fuling to thread the circular needle.
Yu Fuling quickly took out a No. 2 round needle and handed it to Yu Jiao.
Yu Jiao used surgical forceps to suture the peritoneum, muscles, fascia and fat layers in turn, threw the round needle into the wooden tray, and said in an orderly manner, "Change the corner needle."
Yu Fuling handed the horn needle threaded with No. 1 thick catgut to Yu Jiao.
After Yu Jiao sutured the skin with horn needles, she threw all the horn needles and surgical forceps into the wooden tray. After cleaning Wang Xueyan's lower body, she took pepper and salt water to wipe the sutured wound on Wang Xueyan's abdomen, and then wiped it with gauze dipped in licorice water before bandaging the sutured incision.
"Why do we need to use pepper and salt water to scrub the wound?" Yu Fuling asked eagerly.
Yu Jiao washed her hands with pepper and salt water while saying, "Pepper and salt water can kill viruses and bacteria. We cannot see bacteria with our eyes, but if not handled properly, the wound will become infected and fester. Using licorice water to wipe the wound is also useful for this."
Yu Fuling's admiration for Yu Jiao's medical skills and knowledge can no longer be described as admiration. Watching her practice medicine has broken her own perceptions time and time again.
Seeing that Yu Jiao had washed her hands, Yu Fuling hurriedly handed her a clean handkerchief. After Yu Jiao wiped her hands, she took Wang Xueyan's pulse again and carefully checked her physical condition. Seeing that her vital signs were good, she felt relieved.
She packed up her equipment and said to Yu Fuling, "Sister, go call Miss Shen in, and get a pair of paper and pen, so I can write another prescription."
Yu Fuling responded and went to the outer room.
Seeing her come out, everyone's eyes were all focused on Yu Fuling. Shen Wan asked nervously, "Is my cousin okay?"
"Miss cousin is fine, the dead fetus has been taken out, and Miss Shen can come in." Yu Fuling said calmly.
Chen Guan almost shed tears when she heard this. The string that had been tense in her body could finally relax. She clasped her hands together and said, "God bless you." Then she hurried to the inner room.
