Chapter 41: Chapter 41: One Death and Two Lives or Mother and Child Safe
Upon hearing Director Qian's words, Yu Ziman was absolutely furious. She tore off her mask in one swift motion, her chest heaving rapidly. "Qian Bin, is this what you call saving lives and healing the wounded? We might have had a way to avoid the tragedy of one death and two lives, but you deliberately chose not to save them just to avoid liability? I'm sorry, but I'm also a doctor, and I can't bring myself to do that. There are two lives lying on that bed. If they were your wife and child, would you just stand by and do nothing?"
"You..." Qian Bin didn't expect Yu Ziman to reprimand him like this in front of so many nurses. If it were someone else, Qian Bin would definitely have lost his temper on the spot. However, for Yu Ziman, whom he had always been in love with, Qian Bin had to restrain his temper and said in a low voice, "Ziman, you just came back from abroad and don't know how tense the doctor-patient relationship is in our country. You have to understand that you could be burdened with a complicated lawsuit for the rest of your life because of this."
"Stop talking. If anything goes wrong, I'll take full responsibility. After all, I'm the attending doctor for this parturient woman," Yu Ziman said coldly, raising her head.
"Doctor Yu, you have to think this through clearly," Qian Bin's face turned cold as he said in a deep voice.
"I've thought it through very clearly. Doctor Xiao, please proceed," Yu Ziman said resolutely.
Xiao Yi gave Yu Ziman an appreciative look and didn't say anything. He extended three fingers and placed them on the parturient woman's wrist.
The faint pulse felt at his fingertips made Xiao Yi frown. The parturient woman was suffering from both qi and blood deficiency, and indeed, as Yu Ziman had said, she had a serious heart condition. After more than two hours of difficult labor, she was on the verge of exhaustion, with only a faint breath left.
"Doctor, save my child," the parturient woman opened her eyes at this moment, covered in cold sweat and extremely weak. Although she already felt the breath of death, what she cared about most in her heart was still her child. This shows the love of parents all over the world.
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of many young nurses turned red.
"Don't worry. You and your child will both be fine," Xiao Yi said in a deep voice.
"Hmph, anyone can talk big. I want to see what tricks you, the so-called last hope, have up your sleeve," Qian Bin sneered.
Xiao Yi, however, was completely focused. He skillfully took out the silver needles and first inserted them into several major acupoints along the parturient woman's Heart Meridian. Twirling the ends of the needles gently, Xiao Yi used the Four Symbols Acupuncture Technique.
At this moment, the parturient woman's heart could stop beating at any moment, so maintaining the function of her heart was naturally the top priority.
"Pfft," Qian Bin let out a disdainful snort as he looked at the silver needles.
However, after a while, a clear and regular heartbeat sound came from the electrocardiogram monitor beside the bed.
"Hey, the parturient woman's heartbeat has stabilized!" the young nurse in charge of monitoring the heartbeat exclaimed in surprise.
"Wow, is this acupuncture? How can it be so miraculous?" Several young nurses exclaimed in excitement as they looked at the silver needles on the parturient woman's arm.
Yu Ziman quietly let out a sigh of relief.
Qian Bin beside her was shocked. He pushed his glasses and looked at the electrocardiogram monitor in disbelief.
"Doctor Yu, ask someone to prepare a bowl of ginseng soup. We'll need it later," Xiao Yi said without turning his head.
"Okay, I'll send someone right away," Yu Ziman said excitedly and immediately instructed a young nurse to leave the delivery room.
Xiao Yi didn't stop his actions. He placed his hands on the parturient woman's round belly. Extending his divine sense, Xiao Yi carefully sensed the situation of the fetus. Sure enough, as Yu Ziman had said, the umbilical cord was wrapped around the fetus's neck three times. At this moment, the fetus's heart rate was irregular, and it was in danger of losing its life at any moment. (From "The CEO's Sweet Wife is Too Alluring")
However, Xiao Yi didn't panic at all. He gently pushed with both hands and used the Guanyin Hand Massage Technique. The gentle force actually pushed the fetus to slowly turn in the direction opposite to the way the umbilical cord was wrapped around its neck.
From the round belly, everyone could clearly see the traces of the fetus turning inside. And with each turn, the sound on the fetal heart monitor became more regular.
After a while, the young nurse exclaimed in surprise again, "The fetal heart rate has returned to normal!"
A look of disbelief gradually appeared on Yu Ziman's face.
This method of turning the fetus to relieve umbilical cord entanglement, Yu Ziman had only seen it recorded in ancient books before and had never seen anyone actually use it. After all, with the development of medical technology, cesarean section has become very common. Even more and more parturient women without any abnormal conditions directly choose cesarean section to avoid the excruciating pain. Therefore, this traditional midwifery technique has gradually been lost.
Now, Yu Ziman had witnessed Xiao Yi using it with her own eyes. How could she not be overjoyed? However, Yu Ziman didn't understand how Xiao Yi could clearly know the direction of the umbilical cord entanglement without even looking at the ultrasonic image.
As for Qian Bin, seeing that the young Xiao Yi could actually solve the problem of umbilical cord entanglement with his bare hands, he was as shocked as if he had seen a ghost. Especially when he saw Yu Ziman's eager gaze, Qian Bin's brows gradually furrowed.
After the umbilical cord entanglement of the fetus was completely resolved, Xiao Yi took out the silver needles again and inserted them into several major acupoints on the parturient woman's Conception Vessel Meridian. The ends of the needles trembled slightly, and a red line gradually appeared on the Conception Vessel Meridian, slowly spreading towards the lower abdomen.
"Hey, a red line has appeared!"
"Giving birth while having needles inserted? This is the first time I've seen it!"
"But both the mother and the child's heartbeats are stable, so it's obviously effective!"
"That's right. No wonder Doctor Yu said Doctor Xiao was the last hope!"
The young nurses were all excited to see that the parturient woman and the fetus, who had been in a very bad situation just now, were gradually recovering their heartbeats. Their eyes were filled with admiration as they looked at Xiao Yi.
"Doctor Xiao, the ginseng soup is ready," a young nurse rushed back with a bowl of ginseng soup in her hand.
"Feed it to her," Xiao Yi commanded simply.
The nurses didn't dare to delay. They quickly helped the parturient woman up according to Xiao Yi's instructions and fed her the entire bowl of ginseng soup.
Xiao Yi inserted the needles for the third time, this time into the parturient woman's Spleen Meridian.
Strangely enough, as the red line appeared on the Spleen Meridian, the parturient woman, who had been on the verge of death, gradually regained her strength. With Xiao Yi's pressing, she adjusted her breathing rhythmically and struggled to give birth.
"Push hard! Come on!" The nurses couldn't help but clench their fists and excitedly cheered for the parturient woman.
Yu Ziman even held the parturient woman's hand tightly and tears welled up in her eyes.
Finally, amidst everyone's tense anticipation, a weak cry of a baby came from the delivery room.
"Whoosh" There were sighs of relief all over the delivery room. The young nurse even excitedly hugged Xiao Yi.
The father of the child, who had been sitting slumped outside the delivery room, trembled all over and staggered to his feet.
However, at this moment, Xiao Yi didn't rush to celebrate. Instead, he placed the baby, who was all purple, upright on the delivery table. He quickly inserted the silver needles into the position of the baby's Lung Meridian and immediately removed them without leaving the needles in.
As the silver needles were pulled out, the baby spat out several mouthfuls of turbid saliva from his purple lips.
"This child was trapped inside for too long and choked on amniotic fluid. If it wasn't expelled in time, he would develop whooping cough in the future. (From "The Special Forces in the City" download)" Xiao Yi held the baby in both hands and handed it to Yu Ziman, smiling.
"Xiao Yi, I'm completely convinced by you today!" Yu Ziman held the hard-won little life in her hands, her expression filled with excitement. She had delivered countless babies with her own hands, but none of them had made her as excited as this one today. The mother and child, who had been sentenced to death by Qian Bin, had miraculously survived under Xiao Yi's hands.
If she had been half-believing about Xiao Yi's abilities before, now she was completely convinced.
Xiao Yi chuckled. He turned around and removed the silver needles from the parturient woman's body. He instructed Yu Ziman, "I just used the silver needles to forcibly stimulate the medicinal power of the ginseng soup in her body. She won't be in any danger for now. But if she wants to be completely cured of her heart disease, she still needs to come to Jishitang to find me."
"Okay," Yu Ziman nodded heavily.
"Alright, I've lived up to the task. I'm leaving now," Xiao Yi washed his hands and said with a smile.
"I'll treat you to dinner tonight to thank you properly. Are you available?" Yu Ziman said straightforwardly.
Xiao Yi glanced at Qian Bin, who had a 铁青 face, and said with a smile, "How could I not be available when a beautiful woman invites me?"
"Wow, Doctor Yu, we want to go too!" The young nurses chimed in.
"Go ahead. You always want to join in the fun!" Yu Ziman was in a good mood. She laughed and joked with the young nurses and started to deal with the aftercare of the parturient woman and the baby together.
Xiao Yi turned around and left the delivery room.
The father of the child looked nervous. He grabbed Xiao Yi's arm and asked, "Doctor, how is it?"
"It's a boy. The mother and child are both safe," Xiao Yi said with a smile.
"Mother and child are safe! Doctor, you're truly a divine doctor. Thank you for saving my family!" The man said as he knelt down heavily.
Just as expected, a surging force of merit and virtue poured into Xiao Yi's sea of consciousness. The sea of consciousness vibrated strongly, and there was a faint sign of an upgrade.
"Okay, get up. Take good care of your wife and child," Xiao Yi helped the man up and walked away.
Back at Jishitang, it was already dinner time when Xiaoyue called and said that the event she had participated in that afternoon would end very late and she would stay at a good friend's house for the night and not come back.
Thinking that this kind of thing was quite common, Xiao Yi told her to pay attention to her safety and agreed.
Not long after, Yu Ziman's call came in: "Xiao Yi, at 6 o'clock sharp, at the Greenery Western Restaurant. We'll meet there. I have something to do now, so I won't come to pick you up. You can go there by yourself."
Xiao Yi smiled and agreed. Yu Ziman wasn't young, but she always did things vigorously. However, today, her actions of desperately protecting that elderly parturient woman had won Xiao Yi's admiration. Compared to those doctors who always thought of liability first, Yu Ziman was obviously much more adorable.
Starting Jia Rulong's BMW 750, Xiao Yi turned on the navigation and soon arrived at the Greenery Western Restaurant that Yu Ziman had reserved.
After parking the car casually, Xiao Yi entered this most famous western restaurant in Haicheng City.
As soon as he entered, a sense of elegance greeted him. The restaurant was bright and clean, and there was a soothing melody of the piano playing. Just in terms of the environment, it was beyond reproach.
The waiter was respectful and courteous. He led Xiao Yi to table number 68 that Yu Ziman had reserved.
It was already 6 o'clock, but Yu Ziman hadn't arrived yet. Xiao Yi had heard that it was popular for women to be late for dates nowadays. Although he didn't agree with it, he just sat there calmly, drinking the lemonade served by the waiter, waiting for her.
However, after sitting for a while, out of the corner of his eye, Xiao Yi caught sight of someone he knew.
