Chapter 41 Temporary Workers Become Regular Workers]
Ye Qingyue nodded: "Yes."
After the words fell, Xu Juan's body, which had been tense, seemed to be relieved and knelt on the ground.
She wanted to kowtow to Ye Qingyue again: "Doctor Ye, thank you, thank you so much..."
Ye Qingyue quickly stopped her and said seriously: "This is not the old society. Now everyone is equal. There is no feudalism and kneeling. Aren't you harming me by doing this? Don't do this in the future."
Xu Juan was frightened and quickly got up: "Yes, I didn't think it through. I was just too, too..."
She didn't finish her words and couldn't help crying: "Thank you so much for saving my Dabao!"
When the county hospital said that Dabao might not survive, Xu Juan felt like the sky had fallen.
If Dabao died, she wanted to go with him, fearing that the child would be scared alone in the underworld.
When Xu Juan heard Ye Qingyue say that she could cure him, she wanted to worship her and said that thanking her a million times would not be enough.
"No need to thank me for now. The most important thing right now is to cure the child."
Ye Qingyue said, "First, find a way to reduce Dabao's temperature and fever. Remember what I just said, wipe his body every fifteen minutes, and then use antipyretics to treat him until his body temperature returns to normal."
Seeing that Dabao was still kicking his legs in a coma and seemed to be emotionally unstable, she said, "He needs to be injected with sedatives now."
"In addition, children with simple high fever convulsions are likely to develop cerebral edema. They need to go to the hospital to prescribe 20% mannitol for dehydration treatment."
Ye Qingyue paused slightly when she said this.
The current problem is that the doctors at the county hospital do not understand Dabao's condition. How can they prescribe sedatives and mannitol?
"I'll talk to the hospital and ask them to prescribe medicine."
Doctor Wang suddenly said, "The director of the emergency department is my cousin. I'll tell him about Dabao's condition."
The problem of medicine was solved, and Ye Qingyue was relieved. She told the specific treatment plan to Doctor Wang and Xu Juan.
In order to ensure that Dabao could get good treatment, Ye Qingyue did not go home for the time being, but stayed in the hospital to observe Dabao's condition.
Doctor Wang also talked to the director of the emergency department and quickly prescribed medicine for Dabao.
More than an hour later, Xu Juan said to Ye Qingyue: "Doctor Ye, Dabao's temperature seems to be better than before."
"Let the nurse come and take Dabao's temperature."
After Ye Qingyue gave the order, Xu Juan immediately went to find the nurse. After
measuring the temperature, Dabao's temperature dropped from 38.8 degrees to 37.6 degrees.
The normal body temperature of children is generally between 36 and 37 degrees.
If it exceeds this range by more than 0.5 degrees, it is
considered a fever. A low fever is considered low fever if it does not exceed 38 degrees, and a high fever is considered high fever if it exceeds 38 degrees.
Dabao's body temperature has turned from a high fever to a low fever, and it should be able to return to normal soon.
Xu Juan wiped her tears while wiping Dabao's body.
However, she shed tears this time not out of despair, but out of joy.
After Ye Qingyue's treatment, Dabao's condition improved visibly.
Not only did he not kick his legs or talk nonsense in his sleep, but his skin also slowly changed from the color of cooked shrimp to normal.
He was snoring at the moment, and he seemed to have dreamed of something delicious, smacking his lips.
"When Dabao's temperature returns to normal, you don't need to wipe his body or cover him with a thick quilt. Just do it normally."
Seeing that the situation was stable, Ye Qingyue prepared to leave. "When he wakes up, he will probably be hungry. Don't feed him raw or cold food, and don't give him greasy, sweet or sour food. It's best to cook some light porridge with shredded scallions and ginger. It can relieve his cough and is easier to digest."
Xu Juan carefully remembered what Ye Qingyue said, and kept saying thank you. She also took out a cloth bag and found some bills. "Doctor Ye, you are my Dabao's lifesaver. I don't know how to thank you enough. Please accept these..."
She separated at least half of the neatly stacked bills and wanted to stuff them into Ye Qingyue's hands.
"No, Dabao is still sick, and he needs to be well taken care of for a while. There are many places to spend money."
Ye Qingyue hurriedly stopped it. She knew that Xu Juan's husband was away all year round, and it was not easy for her to take care of the child alone.
These bills might be all the mother and daughter's belongings now, and they didn't know how long they would last.
Although Ye Qingyue felt that it was natural to receive remuneration for practicing medicine and saving lives, Xu Juan and her son lived in poverty, and she was embarrassed to accept so many thank-you gifts.
"Doctor Ye, these are what you deserve. If you don't accept them, I can't sleep at night. Just accept them."
Xu Juan was unwilling to let Ye Qingyue treat her for free, and insisted on stuffing the bills into Ye Qingyue's hands.
"I remember that Aunt Xu, your backyard seems to have a vegetable garden, where you grow a lot of fruits and vegetables?"
Ye Qingyue had no choice but to say, "My family just moved to Granny Zhong's old house, and we didn't get any land when the family was divided. If we want to eat vegetables, we can only buy them. Aunt Xu, if you feel bad and want to repay us, when my family wants to eat fresh vegetables in the future, we can go to your field to pick them. How about that?"
Xu Juan said, "These are some worthless vegetables. If you want to eat them, Doctor Ye, I will pick them for you, so you can just use these bills..."
"No need for so much. My family is small, and it will be a waste if we can't finish it."
Ye Qingyue interrupted Xu Juan and said with a smile, "Then it's settled. I won't accept any money or receipts. I'll go to your house to pick vegetables in the future. Also..."
She looked at Doctor Wang, who had been staying in the ward and running around for Dabao, and said, "This time Dabao had a high fever and convulsion, which had nothing to do with the antipyretic medicine prescribed by Doctor Wang. If your relatives come to your house again, please explain it to everyone so that Doctor Wang won't be wronged."
"I also know that this is not Doctor Wang's fault, but my uncle and his friends..."
Xu Juan also smiled bitterly when she mentioned those annoying relatives, "Doctor Ye, don't worry. If they make things difficult for Doctor Wang again, I'll call the police!"
This time Dabao was sick and almost died. But
Xu Genlai and his friends only cared about blackmailing Doctor Wang and snatched the nutritional supplements that Doctor Wang brought to Dabao.
After this incident, Xu Juan also saw through the hearts of those people and was unwilling to swallow her anger for the sake of blood relationship.
"Doctor Wang, I'm sorry for causing you trouble this time. When my family Guangrong sends money back at the end of the month, I will pay for your medical expenses."
Xu Juan said apologetically.
"Okay."
Doctor Wang did not refuse. There were some things he could be kind-hearted about, but there were some things he had to make his attitude clear, lest outsiders think he was easy to bully and cause trouble.
Seeing that everything was explained clearly, Ye Qingyue left the hospital with the medicine bag.
Xu Juan looked at her back, clasped her hands together, and bowed quietly.
"What a miracle doctor, what a good person..."
...
When Ye Qingyue got home, it was already past dinner time.
But as soon as she entered the house, she saw that the food on the table had not been touched.
Ye Xianghong came over, with a worried tone: "Why are you back so late? Come and eat, I just heated it up."
Ye Qingyue said: "Mom, didn't you tell you to eat first if you are hungry?"
"A Feng ate, I wasn't hungry just now."
Ye Xianghong's wooden face made it impossible to tell whether she was telling the truth or a lie.
Ye Qingyue was helpless: "Mom, you..."
"The factory in the county town is short of staff, so let me go there this afternoon."
Before she finished speaking, Ye Xianghong changed the subject, "I have been asking for leave these two days because of the separation of the family. The factory thinks I am not serious, and they will not want me if I don't go."
"The team leader said that this year the factory plans to select a few of us temporary workers to become regular employees."
Ye Xianghong pulled Ye Qingyue to sit down and added a full bowl of rice for her, "I plan to work overtime more and perform well. If I can become a regular employee, I will have a stable job in the future, and my family will not have to rely on the savings. The money can be saved for you to go to college."
