Before she knew it, Ye Yunxi had spent two months at the base hospital, getting to know many of the medical instruments. She also learned some nursing techniques for giving injections, and so on.
I've learned a little bit about giving injections and administering IV drips, all by practicing with acquaintances. I've also given injections and IV drips to other people during that time.
Aside from surgery, Ye Yunxi performed the procedures on small animals. She had never performed surgery on humans. She could only use small animals for experiments.
Ye Yunxi learns things very quickly; what others take months to learn, she learns in about two months.
On that very day, while Master Ye was teaching Ye Yunxi to identify Chinese medicinal herbs, he heard a loud commotion at the door.
Old Master Ye and Ye Yunxi went out together to see what was going on.
Then I saw two young men, one supporting the other. They were calling out to each other.
"Doctor, help! There's a wounded soldier here, his leg is injured."
Old Ye called several doctors and helped the wounded to the operating room, where he would treat them.
Several doctors quickly took the man and supported him. Two doctors lifted his legs, carrying the young man in mid-air, and carried him to the operating room.
Old Master Ye called Ye Yunxi to go to the operating room with him so she could learn practical skills from him.
Once in the operating room and placed on the bed, Old Master Ye kept Gu Qingqing and Ye Yunxi behind, while the rest of them left.
Old Ye put on rubber gloves, and Gu Qingqing helped him prepare the surgical supplies.
"Yunxi, you're in charge of handing me things. Please assist me from the side."
"Yes," Gu Qingqing and Ye Yunxi said in unison.
"Yunxi, use cotton swabs to disinfect the patient's wound," Old Master Ye instructed Ye Yunxi.
Ye Yunxi quickly found cotton swabs on the cart, dipped them in disinfectant, and used them to disinfect the patient's legs.
"Ouch! Hey, miss, could you be a little gentler? It hurts a bit."
The young man tasted the disinfectant, gasped, and winced in pain.
Ye Yunxi rolled her eyes at him and continued doing what she was doing, while simultaneously increasing the pressure. He screamed in pain.
Old Master Ye and Gu Qingqing ignored her, and Ye Yunxi continued with her work. After disinfecting, she tossed the cotton swabs onto the tray.
Old Ye continued.
"Yunxi, give me the scalpel and forceps."
Ye Yunxi quickly handed the scalpel and forceps to Old Master Ye.
Old Ye took the scalpel and forceps and began operating on the young man's leg.
"Yunxi, come here and watch how I do it."
Ye Yunxi moved closer to watch what Elder Ye was doing.
The young man immediately became indignant and started making sarcastic remarks to Old Ye.
"Hey old man, you're stitching me up, is it appropriate to have a young girl watch? At least show me some respect!"
While doing his work, Old Ye spoke to the young man.
"Young man, this is my apprentice. I finally got a chance to let my apprentice learn from me."
The young man continued.
"So, according to you, I'm still a guinea pig?"
Old Ye smiled and said.
"Young man, you should be content with what I've given my apprentice before I've even had a chance to teach him. Yunxi, here are the suture forceps and suture thread."
Ye Yunxi placed the scalpel and surgical forceps on the tray, then took out the suture forceps and sutures from the tray and handed them to Old Ye.
Before the young man could say anything more, Ye Yunxi gave him a piercing look and made a gesture as if to hit him.
Startled by Ye Yunxi's lateness and gestures, he dared not speak again, only muttering softly.
"What! How can such a young girl be so fierce? Any man who marries her is really unlucky."
Gu Qingqing heard everything clearly from the side and scolded him.
"What did you say? Say it again!"
The young man was startled by Gu Qingqing again and dared not say another word.
After waiting for ten minutes, Old Master Ye finished stitching up and asked Ye Yunxi.
"Yunxi, tell him what we need to pay attention to for patients like this."
Ye Yunxi nodded, and while packing her things, she spoke to the young man.
"Eat a light diet, try to avoid water, get plenty of rest, and come back in a week to have the stitches removed."
The young man said to Ye Yunxi.
"Miss, you're Yunxi, right? I'll remember you."
Ye Yunxi said coldly.
"What do you want? Bring it on."
Upon hearing Ye Yunxi's answer, the young man nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, okay, you hurt me just now, I'll come back to you."
Ye Yunxi raised an eyebrow slightly, too lazy to reply.
Old Master Ye said to Gu Qingqing.
"Qing girl, find a wheelchair and have his friend outside help him into the wheelchair, then go outside to pay the bill."
Gu Qingqing nodded, walked to the door, opened it, and went out to find a wheelchair. She then called the young man's friend to come in together.
Old Ye had two young men help the young man into a wheelchair before he went out to pay the bill.
After the young man sat in his wheelchair, he passed by Ye Yunxi and gave her a vicious look.
Ye Yunxi was speechless at his behavior, too lazy to pay attention to him, and continued doing her work.
After everything was tidied up, Old Master Ye looked at Ye Yunxi.
"Yunxi, did you understand this time? If you did, next time there's a minor surgery like this, you can perform it, and I'll watch from the side."
Ye Yunxi nodded. "I'll remember. Okay, I'll do it next time."
Old Ye continued, "Once you're done tidying up, go back and rest. Go home early after work."
After saying that, Old Ye walked out of the operating room and headed to his office.
Ye Yunxi looked at Old Master Ye's retreating figure, which seemed somewhat lonely.
He missed his senior brother, but he didn't let others know. He would secretly look at the photos and wipe away tears, and she saw him doing so several times.
If my senior brother were still here, Master would be very happy.
Ye Yunxi didn't think about anything else. After she finished packing, she followed Gu Qingqing back to the office.
