Xiao Han finished her disinfection work and it was already nightti. She imdiately went to the quarantine shed and saw that there were quite a few more infected villagers today, so with more severe symptoms and so less severe.
Xiao Zimo was taking the pulse and acupuncture for those with more severe symptoms. He sat in a wheelchair, wore a spotless white robe, and was calm and unhurried without any panic.
Xiao Han muttered to herself, "This guy is like an unworldly immortal!"
She did not disturb Xiao Zimo and first fumigated the quarantine shed with herbs. Then, holding a stack of papers, she went to record each patient's condition.
After she finished recording and ca out, she saw Xiao Zimo was at the door of the quarantine shed, instructing Liu Yan to cook dicine.
Just as he finished instructing, he turned around in his wheelchair and saw Xiao Han standing behind him.
"Brother Xiao Han, how did you get in here? It's very dangerous inside, you should go out first."
"How can you handle everything alone? There will likely be more and more people coming!" Xiao Han said matter-of-factly.
She stepped forward and handed Xiao Zimo the stack of papers in her hand, "Here are the dical records I made for them, which is also convenient to observe their recovery."
Xiao Zimo glanced at her and took the papers from her hand. Looking at the detailed record of each patient, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
"Brother Xiao Han, you..." Xiao Zimo wanted to say sothing but stopped.
"I know your traditional Chinese dicine skills must be very good. You just focus on treating them and leave prevention and follow-ups to ."
There were no antibiotics or Western dicine here. Although her expertise was not traditional Chinese dicine, she was very interested in it and had been learning it for so ti - acupuncture, herbs, she knew quite a bit.
But Xiao Zimo was clearly more professional than her in this area, so she did not want to overstep.
"So... you are also a doctor?" Xiao Zimo asked.
Xiao Han smiled, "I guess so, just... my expertise is sowhat different from yours!"
Xiao Zimo looked at her smile and felt that although she was small in stature, her skill and courage were quite big.
"May I ask bluntly why you ca here?" Xiao Zimo suddenly changed the topic.
"? Because I was chased by enemies and jumped off a cliff. After swimming out of the river, I wandered here!" Xiao Han told the truth.
Xiao Zimo looked her over. She didn't seem to be lying. Was it just a coincidence?
Over the past two days helping to contain the outbreak, her enthusiasm and sincerity made her seem genuine. Maybe it really was just a coincidence.
At this ti, Liu Yan rushed over in a hurry.
"Brother Xiao, Young Master Xiao!" Liu Yan said urgently: "Auntie Wang's daughter-in-law is having complications in childbirth and has fainted already. You are both doctors, is there any way to help?"
"What?" Xiao Han exclaid.
When she went to Auntie Wang's house for disinfection that afternoon, she had heard her daughter-in-law was giving birth but didn't think to ask more, assuming it was going normally. Now that she heard from Liu Yan it was a difficult labor, she knew the situation was critical!
"The midwife said the feet ca out first and still hasn't been able to get the baby in the normal position!"
Xiao Han was about to say sothing when she heard Xiao Zimo calmly say, "I can help, take there."
"Alright!"
Liu Yan imdiately took Xiao Zimo to Auntie Wang's house while Xiao Han followed along.
Xiao Han was rather astonished that Xiao Zimo actually claid to have a way in this situation, where a C-section would be the only option.
When they arrived at Auntie Wang's house, they were unexpectedly blocked outside by the Wang family.
"A woman giving birth, no n allowed inside! Liu Yan, why did you bring them here? Are you asking for bad luck?" Auntie Wang scolded.
"Auntie Wang, they are divine doctors and may have a way to save Sister Xiu An!" Liu Yan quickly explained.
"What feudal superstition is this? We are d...doctors! In our eyes, n and won are the sa! Just bags of organs! If you delay another mont, your daughter-in-law will be dead with her baby!" Xiao Han stepped forward, almost angered to death by Auntie Wang's words!
When Auntie Wang's son heard "dead with her baby", he imdiately pulled at his mother crying, "Mother, if they really can save Xiu An, just let them try!"
At this ti, the door inside opened and the anxious midwife rushed out, "Now we can only save one. Save the mother or save the child?"
"No!" Auntie Wang's son knelt down begging, "Please, save my wife and child! They must both live!"
"Nonsense about saving one or the other! Hurry and let us take a look!" Xiao Han directly pushed the midwife aside and rushed inside.
"What...what are you doing? Quick, pull him out!" Auntie Wang yelled, about to go inside and drag Xiao Han out.
"Mother, we've got no other choice now. Why not let them try?" Auntie Wang's son held back his mother.
Xiao Zimo's calm voice ca out, "If you want to save both, you must imdiately perform a C-section. It will be too late soon, and neither may survive."
"What? C-section?" The midwife was astonished, "Can the mother survive that?"
"I can guarantee both will be safe and sound."
Hearing Xiao Zimo say this, Auntie Wang's son imdiately said, "Alright! I trust you! Please save them!"
Inside, Xiao Han also heard what Xiao Zimo said and couldn't help but be shocked. He actually knows how to perform C-sections too?
Xiao Han assessed the mother's condition - the amniotic fluid coming out was already cloudy. Any later and it really could be two lives lost.
Just then, the unconscious Xiu An awoke, reaching out to grab Xiao Han's hand, "Please...save my baby..."
Xiao Zimo entered the room, a white sheet covering the mother below.
His gold thread wrapped around Xiu An's wrist and he frowned, "The C-section must be done now!"
"Do you really know how to do C-sections?" Xiao Han asked imdiately.
Xiao Zimo glanced at her, "Brother Xiao Han, you may stay and assist ."
The door closed. Xiao Zimo took out soporific powder for Xiao Han to feed Xiu An.
"Don't worry, your baby will be fine, and so will you!" Xiao Han reassured.
The anxious people outside waited as the calm surgeons worked inside.
Seeing Xiao Zimo take out surgical instrunts, Xiao Han was shocked once more. Although slightly different from modern tools, they served basically the sa functions.
Xiao Han's skilled assistance also surprised Xiao Zimo sowhat.
In fact, the surgery did not take long, probably just over half an hour, before the people outside heard the cries of a newborn baby.
The anxiety Auntie Wang held finally loosened.
After a while, Xiao Han opened the door and handed the child to Auntie Wang's son.
"How is my wife? How is she?" The man was very worried and anxious, not taking the child first.
Seeing his concern for his wife, Xiao Han felt quite gratified, "Don't worry, your wife is fine. Congratulations, it's a big baby boy."
Auntie Wang's son seed to deflate, falling to the ground. He bowed deeply to Xiao Han and Xiao Zimo, voice shaking with relief, "Thank you, Young Masters! Thank you!"
Auntie Wang quickly took the child from Xiao Han, eyes red but voice steady with gratitude, "Thank you, thank you both!"
Xiao Zimo also ca out and gave Auntie Wang's son so postpartum instructions and nursing advice.
As they left Auntie Wang's house, it was already very late. Under the moonlight, there was a probing look in both their eyes towards each other.
Xiao Han suddenly laughed and leaned in close to peer into his eyes. Both still had masks on, with only their eyes visible.
"Xiao Zimo, so you know surgery too? You really are exceptional..."
Xiao Zimo did not avoid her gaze, also looking at her, "Brother Xiao Han, you are quite exceptional yourself."
