Shen Mingzhi patted her shoulder, "I'll go with you this afternoon."
"My younger brother..."
"Oh dear, I'll keep an eye on him for you. This child has been lying here for so long, we need to find a way to transfer him to another hospital as soon as possible."
"Yes, this is a matter of life and death, why does the hospital still have so many problems? Take transferring to another hospital, for example, it's so troublesome. When will they change that?"
"Thank you!" Shen Jimei said, her voice choked with emotion.
Everyone waved their hands.
After lunch, Shen Mingzhi and Shen Jimei went to see the doctor who had first examined Shen Xiuzhu.
"Didn't I make it clear to you this morning? A letter of introduction, the official seal of your unit, and the approval slip from the higher-level health department are all indispensable! Young man, it's not that our hospital is making things difficult for you, but there are medical reimbursement issues when transferring to another hospital. This involves money. If the other hospital doesn't reimburse you, our hospital will still have to bear the medical reimbursement costs. Is that reasonable?" The doctor held a pen in his hand and tapped the table with each sentence.
“We don’t have a letter of introduction, but the patient’s father is a top cardiovascular surgeon at the Beijing Academy of Medical Sciences. You can call and ask him. Also, we’re coming in a rescue plane, a military plane! The approval slip will be brought that day; you just need to provide the transfer certificate!” Shen Mingzhi stepped forward, her attitude assertive.
"So you're calling for backup when you can't win an argument with one person?!" The attending physician threw down his pen. "All three are indispensable, or get out!"
Shen Mingzhi took the official seal out of her bag and slapped it in front of the doctor. "This is the official seal of Beijing Baoli Daily Chemical Factory. You can call and check it!"
As she spoke, she noticed a telephone in his office, walked over, and picked it up.
"Hey... comrade!" The first attending physician was about to rush over.
Shen Mingzhi glared at him, "You stand there!"
When she gets fierce, even the doctors are so scared they have to stand at attention.
Shen Jimei was gentle and had never met someone as assertive as Shen Mingzhi.
Shen Mingzhi dialed Jiang Shaozhen's number.
After the call connected, she said, "They won't give us a transfer certificate here. They need an approval slip from your military hospital and a letter of introduction."
"Where are you making this call from now?" Jiang Shaozhen asked.
“I’m in the doctor’s office,” Shen Mingzhi replied.
"Give him the phone." Jiang Shaozhen's voice was extremely calm.
Shen Mingzhi looked at the attending physician and waved to him, "Come on, answer the phone."
The attending physician had no idea who she was seeing, but he was also a little flustered at that moment.
I walked over and answered the phone. Before I could even speak, I heard someone say, "The letter of introduction and approval slip will be brought over with the rescue plane on the same day. What you need to do now is issue a transfer certificate for the critically ill patient. If treatment is delayed, can you bear the responsibility?"
"Who are you?" The doctor was still not convinced; he was just following the rules.
They think they can get him to compromise with just one phone call?!
“Jiang Shaozhen, son of Jiang Guofu, a division-level officer in Beijing, used to serve in an engineering corps division and is now retired,” Jiang Shaozhen answered without hesitation.
The attending physician was too afraid to speak.
Although engineers are not discussed much, they play a vital role in the military, both in combat and peacetime.
"Can it be done?" Jiang Shaozhen asked.
"Yes, you can." The initial doctor's tone softened considerably.
"Give the phone to my wife." Jiang Shaozhen's tone softened somewhat.
When the doctor let Shen Mingzhi answer the phone, he didn't forget to take a second look at her.
So they're military family members; no wonder they have that intimidating aura.
After finishing the transfer certificate, he said, "I'll go tell the hospital director, and he'll need to stamp it."
Shen Mingzhi hummed in agreement.
After he left, Shen Jimei finally spoke, "My previous objections to you were also because of my brother... I didn't expect the procedures to be so difficult."
"Didn't you communicate with the hospital beforehand?" Shen Mingzhi asked curiously.
“They said before that we had reached an agreement with the higher-level hospital and could issue the certificate, but my dad’s hospital keeps saying there are no beds available… They also said that if we give him special treatment because he is a doctor at the hospital, the public will blame the hospital if they find out…” Shen Jimei said softly, “And during the Spring Festival, no one wanted to go through this trouble, so it has been delayed until now.”
“I only found out a few days ago. If I had found out during the Chinese New Year, I would have come over and taken everything from him,” Shen Mingzhi said.
“Your man is really capable… Even my Li An wouldn’t dare tell you this.” Shen Jimei’s tone was tinged with disappointment.
She certainly loves Ang Lee, but she also feels sorry for her younger brother.
I came all this way because of Ang Lee.
My younger brother is the only male in the family. After this accident, my parents blamed Ang Lee entirely.
If she doesn't come to take care of him, Li An won't be able to enter the Shen family's house for holidays or festivals anymore.
After the transfer certificate was issued, Shen Mingzhi and Shen Jimei patiently waited for the arrival of the rescue plane.
The two waited anxiously until the afternoon of the third day.
They only waited until the rescuers arrived.
A group of young soldiers in military uniforms walked into the hospital, startling the crowd who quickly made way for them.
One group of people went to the doctor to deliver the referral letter and approval slip, while another group carried a military cot into Shen Xiuzhu's ward.
They moved in unison and with great speed.
"They said there were two family members. May I ask who they are?!" After Shen Xiuzhu was carried away, one of the soldiers left behind asked.
“Me and her.” Shen Mingzhi immediately pulled Shen Jimei along.
Yesterday, Jiang Shaozhen called the hospital and asked them to pack their luggage today so they could return to Beijing together.
"Let's go together." The other person's expression softened somewhat.
Everyone watched her and Shen Jimei leave with envy.
"So many soldiers... This new comrade is no ordinary man."
"If she hadn't come, that child would have had to stay here and suffer..."
The people whispered among themselves, their voices filled with envy.
...
When the military aircraft landed in Beijing, Shen Canglang was already waiting on the tarmac.
His eyes instantly welled up with tears when he saw his son being pushed down.
As soon as Shen Jimei got off the plane, she went up to him and hugged him tightly. "Dad, we owe a lot to Comrade Shen this time, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to turn things around."
Shen Canglang looked at Shen Mingzhi, a hint of embarrassment on his face.
As soon as Shen Xiuzhu arrived at the military hospital, he was taken to the operating room for treatment.
While Shen Mingzhi was waiting at the hospital, Jiang Shaozhen drove over.
When he arrived at the operating room door, he saw Shen Mingzhi comforting Shen Jimei and Shen Canglang, and quickly walked over.
"How long have you been inside?" he asked.
Shen Mingzhi turned around and saw that a few strands of hair on his forehead were sticking up. He looked less serious than usual and more playful and youthful.
“It’s been half an hour,” Shen Mingzhi said.
"A military doctor examined him on the way and said it wasn't a big problem. He should wake up tomorrow after the second surgery." Jiang Shaozhen's voice wasn't loud, but Shen Jimei and Shen Canglang both heard it.
The surgery lasted nearly three hours before Shen Xiuzhu was wheeled out.
"What do you mean?!" Shen Canglang immediately stepped forward and asked.
