Actually, when there's nothing else to do, I just make shoes. People these days rarely buy clothes or shoes; most things are made by hand, and the styles are all very beautiful.
Women of that era were incredibly skillful; everything they created was a work of art.
Most importantly, they can chat while working without interrupting their tasks and never make mistakes; they are truly multitasking.
He sits on the kang (a heated brick bed) or on his small wooden bed all the time, with his older siblings playing around him. Although he is over one year old, it is the coldest time of winter, so he can only sit there and play.
Then I heard my mother suddenly shift the topic to herself, so I pricked up my ears and listened carefully.
"Sister Zhou, Sister Wu, why can't Mianmian walk yet?"
She's one year and one month old now. During the Lunar New Year, Uncle Wang said, "This little girl is being raised very well, but it's not good that she can't walk!"
"Dr. Liu, you don't need to worry too much. Mianmian started talking early, so she'll start walking a little later. Besides, she's wearing a cotton coat, so even if she wanted to, she wouldn't be able to take a step! Once the weather gets warmer, she'll naturally start walking again."
"Girl, what Sister Wu said is right. Not to mention the other children, even Shen Xi is a late walker, isn't he?"
Don't worry about that! Our Nuannuan is very healthy; she's well-cared for. It's not that she can't walk, it's just that she's wearing too many clothes in winter. When we have some free time, we'll heat the kang (heated brick bed) a bit and take off some of her cotton-padded clothes so she can practice walking on the kang first.”
"Uh... what's going on? Who's knocking on the door?"
Aunt Zhou asked, "Who's that so late at night?"
Liu Linjuan's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly got off the kang (a heated brick bed) and dressed. "The knocking was so urgent, something must have happened. I'll go check it out first!"
Aunt Zhou also realized that it might be news about Lao Li or something else.
"Yes, let's go take a look!"
Seeing the two people hurriedly get off the kang (a heated brick bed) without even putting on their shoes, Sister Wu wanted to follow them to see what was happening, but then she saw the children nearby and decided not to go with them.
Liu Linjuan hurriedly ran over and asked, "Who is it?"
"Sister-in-law, it's me, Xiao Fang!"
Upon hearing it was him, Liu Linjuan quickly opened the door and asked, "Xiao Fang, what brings you here? Is something wrong so late at night?"
"Sister-in-law, I'll get to the point quickly. We've just transferred a group of wounded soldiers from the battlefield, and we need you to go and treat them."
"Okay, I understand. Wait three minutes, I'll be right there!" Liu Linjuan knew that if there weren't so many wounded and their injuries were difficult to treat, she wouldn't have been asked to go so late at night.
"Then I'll go too!" Zhou Tao quickly agreed, knowing how busy the hospital was.
"Sister-in-law Zhou, the commander asked you to get some clean clothes for Regiment Shen!"
"What? You mean our old Shen has returned from the battlefield?"
"Chen Tuan came down from the battlefield injured and is now waiting for treatment. But I don't know the exact extent of his injuries, sister-in-law!"
"Oh, it's nothing, Xiao Fang, thank you! I know, I'll go get the clothes right away!"
After hearing this, Zhou Tao finally felt relieved. It's good that he's back! It's good that he's back!
Liu Linjuan returned to the house and said to Sister Wu and the children:
"Sister Wu, something's come up at the hospital, I have to go right away. Please help take care of things at home. Shen Dong, tomorrow morning, take Shen Xi out in the yard to warm up before practicing boxing, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Sister Wu knew that things at the hospital were very important and that she might not be able to return until tomorrow.
"You go ahead with your work, I'll take care of the kids. If things get too hectic, Shanshan's still here at home, isn't she?"
Shen Dong also realized the seriousness of the situation. Despite his young age, he knew the gravity of the matter. He remembered the sound of artillery fire everywhere when he moved with the main force a few years ago.
"Don't worry, Master, I will take good care of my younger siblings."
Hearing his mother's conversation, he realized the seriousness of the situation, so he stopped doing somersaults and sat there obediently.
Seeing her daughter sitting there so obediently, Liu Linjuan went over, patted my head, and said, "Mianmian, listen to your Aunt Wu and your older brothers and sisters at home. Mom will be back soon."
"Mom~ Mom!"
Liu Linjuan hugged me and was about to say yes when Aunt Zhou went inside.
“Shen Dong, besides going to school, you should stay home and take care of your younger siblings. Your Uncle Fang just said that your father is coming back and your mother will have to go take care of him. She won’t be able to look after you for a while. Please take good care of your younger siblings at home, okay?”
Shen Dong was very happy to hear that his father was back, but when his mother said she was going to the hospital to take care of his father, he asked:
"Is Daddy hurt?"
"Hmm," Zhou Tao was also worried, but when he saw Liu Linjuan, he didn't know what to say.
"Sister Wu, I'd like to trouble you to look after the children for a while."
"It's alright, Shen Dong and the others are behaving well, so you don't need to worry. Taking good care of the children's father is the most important thing!"
"Thank you in advance, Sister Wu. Have you finished packing, little sister?"
"Everything's packed, let's go!"
Liu Linjuan didn't know what to say at this moment. After all, her husband had been on the battlefield and there was still no news of him. She didn't know if he was alive or dead.
They arrived at the military hospital quickly. Seeing the hospital full of patients, before Liu Linjuan could even get out of the car, Director Wang from the logistics department ran over and said:
"Dr. Liu, Dean Ding wants you to go to the operating room immediately."
Upon hearing this, Liu Linjuan ran over while asking, "What's going on?"
...
They quickly arrived at the operating room and saw Dean Ding rushing over to ask, "Dean Ding, what's the situation? Why are there so many seriously injured people?"
"Xiao Liu, you've finally arrived! Your department head, Dr. He, is performing surgery on the wound in the next operating room!"
Here, you've been assigned seven soldiers who need surgery; they're all seriously wounded, and all have gunshot wounds.
"As far as our military hospital is concerned, besides Director He, only you can perform such a high-difficulty surgery. Here is the patient's information. Take a look first, and just tell me what you need. I'll arrange everything you require."
After Dean Ding finished speaking, the nurse standing next to him quickly handed a stack of medical records to Liu Linjuan.
Dean Ding watched Liu Linjuan flipping through the medical records until she finished and asked:
"Xiao Liu, are you confident about these seven surgeries?"
"No problem, as long as the patient is in my hands, I'll snatch him back even if it means fighting against death!" Liu Linjuan said after reviewing the patient's information in her mind following the medical record number.
“Okay, as long as those seven people survive, I will apply for a special merit award for you. Whatever you need, whether it's people or medicine, I will find it for you!” Dean Ding said when he heard Liu Linjuan say this.
Knowing that these seven people definitely had a chance to survive, he was half relieved.
Because he knew that since Liu Linjuan began practicing medicine, she had not only successfully completed her surgical rescue missions, but also that no soldier had ever died on the operating table, no matter how difficult or complex the mission or the patient.
"Dean Ding, the people and the medicine are not the problem. The problem is that we urgently need a large amount of plasma. These seven surgeries will take at least three hours each, so we must prepare a sufficient supply of plasma!"
"Okay, don't worry about that!"
Dean Ding said that he thought to himself, if Xiao Liu could guarantee that these soldiers would live, then he could definitely guarantee the blood plasma. Moreover, he had already informed the troops when he received these patients, and asked them to bring a large number of soldiers over, just in case there wasn't enough blood plasma.
"Alright then."
After glancing at the several doctors standing beside Dean Ding, and passing Zhao Meilan,
Then he said, "Dr. Zhang, you'll be my first assistant, and Dr. Dong, you'll be my second assistant."
"yes!"
Zhao Meilan watched in disbelief as Liu Linjuan and the other two entered the operating room. Just half an hour earlier, Dean Ding had approached her, asking if she could perform these surgeries, and after reviewing the cases, she had said:
"I will do everything in my power to save the wounded."
Dean Ding didn't say anything, but walked to the side and said something. Then she had people prepare medicines or nurses prepare supplies for the operation. She thought the rescue work for these wounded people was being handed over to her.
But to her utter surprise, Liu Linjuan arrived in less than ten minutes. Then she heard the conversation from earlier and couldn't believe it. She had actually assured Dean Ding that several wounded soldiers would survive. How could that be?
When Zhou Tao arrived at the hospital and saw her husband lying on the hospital bed, she couldn't believe that he was lying there like a dead man.
If the nurse on duty hadn't said he was still alive, she would have thought she was going to attend his memorial service, looking at her husband lying in bed, holding his hand.
Unable to utter a single word, tears streamed down her face involuntarily.
Everyone is actively preparing the supplies needed for the surgery. After all, this is a matter of life and death.
This is a military hospital, and everyone here has seen life and death before. But this is the first time so many seriously injured people have come at once. It can be said that some of them were in a state of tense preparation when they received the notification. After all, they are doctors, and saving lives is their top priority.
However, Liu Linjuan is the only person who dares to make such a solemn pledge. Therefore, no matter who hears this, they will find it unbelievable. Don't forget, no matter how good your skills are, no one can guarantee that no problems will occur during the operation.
Most importantly, they were all seriously wounded soldiers who had been transferred from the battlefield and were already suffering from excessive blood loss. Moreover, during surgery, no one could guarantee that they would die from excessive blood loss.
Why could Liu Linjuan issue military orders so easily? This unintentionally made her a figure of controversy in the military hospital.
Many people were whispering among themselves, thinking that none of this was possible and that Liu Linjuan was just talking big.
However, some people don't think so. They've known Liu Linjuan for a long time, know who she is, and know her medical skills. They don't think this is anything special because they've already seen it for themselves.
For those who are ignorant and do not approve of Liu Linjuan, just wait and see how they are proven wrong.
