Jiang Manyue was so anxious that she kept shaking her. She was worried about Yu Cheng's injury and whether Liu Xuemei could hold on.
The doctor was also frightened and quickly called the nurse to take Liu Xuemei to the bed and examine her.
Liu Xuemei was examining her, and Jiang Manyue didn't want to disturb the doctor, so she could only hold back her questions and wait for the doctor to finish the examination.
The doctor examined her for a long time. Perhaps because Liu Xuemei's condition was too bad, he simply asked the nurse to draw a tube of blood from Liu Xuemei for a careful examination.
Taking advantage of the doctor's free time, Jiang Manyue quickly asked, "How is she?"
The doctor shook his head, "We don't know yet. We have to wait for the blood test results."
Jiang Manyue's heart sank to the bottom. Brother Cheng was seriously injured and unconscious, and Liu Xuemei fainted in the hospital, which was simply adding insult to injury.
"So, what's the situation with Comrade Cheng Jianyong? Doctor, she's fainted and can't hear. If you have anything to say, please feel free to tell me. My husband is Lu Lin, and he's a close friend of Comrade Cheng Jianyong."
The doctor glanced at Liu Xuemei, who hadn't yet woken up, and sighed, "I didn't say the worst possible scenario. Comrade Cheng Jianyong's injuries are indeed very serious, and the probability of a normal recovery after surgery is not very high. I can only say that we will do our best."
Jiang Manyue's heart sank again. Could it be that Brother Cheng would no longer be a healthy and normal person from now on?
"Doctor, are you saying that Comrade Cheng Jianyong might have a harder time recovering, and won't be the same after his injury heals?"
The doctor pondered for a moment, "It's definitely impossible to restore your physical functions to their peak, but you should still have no problem living a normal life."
When Jiang Manyue heard this, she couldn't help but clench her fists and clasp her fingertips into her palms.
Didn’t the doctor’s words sentence Cheng Jianyong’s military career to death?
There is a high possibility that he will never be able to recover to his former state, and he will no longer be able to undergo high-intensity military training.
Jiang Manyue didn't know how to tell Liu Xuemei or Brother Cheng about this.
Brother Cheng’s serious injury is absolutely a disaster for this family.
"The most important thing now is to preserve Comrade Cheng Jianyong's hope for a normal life. The surgery must be performed as soon as possible, and his family must be prepared. How much he can recover depends on his luck."
Jiang Manyue widened her eyes. She didn't expect that a doctor from the military hospital would talk to her about fate. Wasn't she just waiting to be criticized?
The doctor, however, remained nonchalant. "Doctors aren't omnipotent. No surgery is 100% certain. Even when criticized by my superiors, I have to say this. This is to give the family a glimmer of hope."
Jiang Manyue didn't want to dwell on the doctor's unorthodoxy; she only cared about the probability of the operation's success.
As long as a person can live a normal life, even if he cannot serve as a soldier, he can switch to civilian work or retire, and there is still hope of starting a family.
"If he can recover to 70% or 80%, that's pretty good. It's also possible to only recover to 50% or 60%. Comrade, as you know, soldiers have much better agility than ordinary people. 50% or 60% is enough to live a normal life."
Jiang Manyue nodded to indicate that she understood. Now that things had come to this, she could only leave it to fate.
With the level of surgery in this era, Jiang Manyue has no hope and can only pray to God for mercy and let Brother Cheng recover to 70% to 80%.
At this time, the nurse came in with a tray, drew a tube of blood from Liu Xuemei, gave her an IV drip of glucose, and placed her in an empty ward.
"Comrade Cheng Jianyong's family also needs to stay in the hospital for observation until the blood test results come out."
Jiang Manyue nodded, and hurried back to prepare some food while Liu Xuemei was still asleep, so that she could eat something to replenish her strength when she woke up.
As soon as he got home, Lu Lin immediately asked about Brother Cheng's injuries.
Jiang Manyue's eyes were red. "The doctor said that Brother Cheng was seriously injured. He had several fractures all over his body and was shot in the stomach. He will need surgery soon. After the surgery, his legs may not be the same as before. It would be great if he can recover 70% to 80%."
Lu Lin's face suddenly darkened. "Brother Cheng is so badly injured? Is there no hope for a full recovery?"
Jiang Manyue shook her head. "The doctor said 70% to 80% of the time, it depends on his luck. Maybe only 50% to 60%, and he can barely live like a normal person."
Lu Lin's face turned ugly, and it became even uglier after hearing Jiang Manyue's next words.
"Xuemei fainted. When she heard the doctor say that Cheng Ge might not recover after the surgery and might become disabled, she passed out. She hasn't woken up yet. The doctor said to draw blood to check if there's anything wrong."
To make matters worse, two members of the Cheng family fell ill at once, and Lu Lin had not yet recovered, so all the burdens fell on Jiang Manyue.
"You take good care of the two children at home and let them go to school on their own. Or I can ask Sister Hong for help and take them to school with her youngest son."
Lu Lin originally wanted to say that he could go and send him off, but Jiang Manyue no longer had the extra energy to take care of him. If he had any accident on the way and his wound ruptured and he had to be hospitalized again, Jiang Manyue would really be dead.
Thinking of this, he had to give up the thought of sending the child to school. He looked at Jiang Manyue with some guilt, "I'm sorry, my wife. I'm a grown man and I can't help you at home. It makes you work so hard."
Jiang Manyue kissed him and said, "As long as you get better soon, it will be the greatest help to me. Now is a special situation. When things get better, I will work for you every day and leave everything to you."
Lu Lin nodded and kissed her back. When he got better, he would definitely let Jiang Manyue lie comfortably at home without having to do anything. He would even learn how to cook and take care of all the housework.
Jiang Manyue asked Lu Lin to help prepare a meal and bring it to the hospital, and she went to ask Sister Hong to help send the two children to school together.
Sister Hong is also a kind-hearted person. When she heard that something happened to the Cheng family and Jiang Manyue had no time to send the child to school, she readily agreed to help.
Lu Lin packed two lunch boxes at home and asked Jiang Manyue to take them to the hospital.
He knew that Jiang Manyue had no appetite now, so she would eat with Liu Xuemei after she woke up.
Jiang Manyue quickly went to the hospital with her lunch box. As soon as she arrived at the door of the ward, she heard the arguing between the nurse and Liu Xuemei.
"You are also a patient now. The doctor said you must stay here for observation. You can't leave!"
"I'm fine! I'm fine! I want to see my husband! Get out of the way!"
Jiang Manyue hurried into the ward. "Xuemei, don't get excited. You just fainted. The doctor said you're not in good health. They took blood for tests, but the results aren't out yet. We have to wait a while before we can leave."
