Chapter 70: Chapter 70 She Looks Very Much Like Your Lover

Xiao Ding noticed a flicker of wariness in Su ixi’s eyes, and he imdiately dared not say more, fearing that the young lady might think he was harassing her.

Yet Xiao Ding still felt that Su ixi looked familiar.

After helping with the delivery of the dicine, he drove back to the military base.

The base was 15 kiloters away, and since there were hardly any vehicles on the road and no traffic lights, it didn’t take much ti to drive.

Back at the base, he first went to report to Gu Wei, “Boss, the dicine has been delivered to the health clinic in town.”

Gu Wei, who was writing docunts, nodded, “As long as it’s delivered.”

...

Xiao Ding was about to leave, but then he turned back at the door, “Boss, there’s a girl at the health clinic. When I first saw her, I felt she looked so familiar but just couldn’t rember where I had seen her before. Now that I see you, I finally recall. That girl looks a lot like the love of your life in the photos.”

Gu Wei paused for a mont.

Xiao Ding reminded him, “Don’t you have a picture of you two in your wallet? It’s that girl.”

Gu Wei put down his pen and looked at Xiao Ding sternly, “If you’re idle, you could go see if the kitchen staff needs any help.”

“You don’t believe ?”

Gu Wei’s face grew cold, “Go there now!”

Xiao Ding: “…”

Alright, he had been misunderstood; the boss thought he was making a pass at him.

It was also his own fault; he shouldn’t have brought up such a touchy subject.

Early in the morning, villagers were again knocking on the door of the health clinic.

They were in a frantic rush, as if their brows were on fire.

“Doctor, please save my daughter-in-law quickly, she’s having a difficult labor, the child won’t co out!”

Dr. Ma wasn’t there today; he had returned to his village, and Su ixi didn’t know where exactly he lived. Besides, for childbirth issues, it wasn’t appropriate to call an old male doctor.

But Su ixi also had no experience delivering babies.

The person seeking help was an old man. Seeing his anxious look, Su ixi could only say, “Then wait a mont, I, I’ll go get so dicine.”

When a child can’t be birthed, it usually ans a cesarean is needed. Su ixi took a set of surgical tools, so of the few anesthetics they had, as well as antibiotics, disposable gloves, and more.

She packed a large dicine box and saw that the old man had co on a motorcycle. It was freezing outside, so she dared not ride the motorcycle and instead had the old man lead the way while she followed in the van.

But entering the village, the van couldn’t drive through, so she had to ride on the old man’s motorcycle after all. Fortunately, they weren’t far away.

The old man drove his motorcycle quickly, finally stopping in front of a courtyard: “Go into the room on the left side, check on her quickly.”

Su ixi, carrying the large dicine box, walked in to find the place in total chaos.

In remote areas, won giving birth often shunned hospitals to save money, relying instead on experienced midwives from the village. But with larger or malpositioned fetuses, the situation could beco life-threatening.

The woman in labor lay on the bed, barely clinging to life, with her mother-in-law, the midwife, and her husband by her side.

Su ixi checked the woman’s pupils and then observed her breathing; the situation was very dangerous.

She also felt the position of the baby, which was transverse.

The amniotic fluid was almost drained; any further delay would an two lives lost.

At this point, a cesarean was the only option!

Damn, she had no experience performing a cesarean either.

“Doctor, what should we do now?” the mother-in-law asked anxiously, worried by Su ixi’s youth and that she was alone.

Su ixi gritted her teeth; there was no backing now.

She imdiately said, “Turn up the lights in the room, and prepare more for additional lighting!”

The midwife asked, “Would flashlights work? And candles?”

“Yes,” she said.

The house had electricity, but the light bulb wasn’t bright enough.

Su ixi was already prepared for surgery.

Although she specialized in traditional Chinese dicine, she was also skilled in various Western dical suturing techniques, and she had taken obstetrics and gynecology courses in university.

She only kept the midwife to help, sending everyone else out, then calmly looked at the pregnant woman’s belly.

The belly was stretched so thin it seed like just one layer of skin.

She calmly ran through the procedure of performing a cesarean section in her mind, then opened the dical kit and took out all the tools needed for the surgery.

Disinfection, anesthesia, incision, and then she handed the newborn to the midwife.

When the baby was taken out, it was purple all over, but fortunately, the midwife was experienced. After a series of actions, the baby started to cry.

The loud cries gave Su ixi hope.

She began to calmly stitch up the mother.

As the woman’s breathing beca steady, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Perhaps her surgery wasn’t perfect, but she was confident it was passable.

Next, she inserted a urinary catheter into the mother and started an IV.

Dr. Ma arrived that afternoon.

After his arrival, Dr. Ma called Su ixi out with a cold face.

He criticized her, “I rember that you’re a doctor of the pain managent departnt. How could you dare perform obstetric surgery? Surgical consent forms are required for conducting a surgery, none of which you’ve done!”

Su ixi replied, “But I wasn’t thinking about that at the ti.”

“Do you really trust yourself that much to succeed? If soone had died, the locals would have caused trouble, and the clinic might not have been able to continue operating.”

Su ixi realized the severity post factum, but at the mont, she was desperate to save a life and couldn’t be bothered with anything else.

Luckily, not long after Dr. Ma arrived, the mother woke up.

The mother’s family was extrely grateful to Su ixi, assuring her that the dical fees would be paid on ti and even invited her and Dr. Ma for dinner at their house.

Seeing that the mother was out of danger, Su ixi gave so postpartum care instructions, then she and Dr. Ma prepared to head back to town.

Dr. Ma had co on a motorcycle, while Su ixi was to drive back in the old van waiting at the entrance of the village.

Perhaps it was because the van had been out in the cold too long, but after just a kiloter, it broke down again.

Su ixi got out and struggled with it for a long ti but couldn’t fix it.

She wasn’t panicking, maybe because she was just too exhausted, or perhaps such incidents were too common. She decided to let the van be and leaned against it, gazing at the barren slopes surrounding her.

Though the hills were bare, the grassland below was green, with a stream passing through half forlorn, half symbolizing hope, much like life itself.

In such a scene, her heart actually found tranquility.

At that mont, she suddenly felt like drinking, or maybe, if she had a cigarette, she could even try smoking one.

While she was daydreaming, a military truck passed by.

The military vehicle was out on patrol, with four or five soldiers on board.

The driver said, “Major, there’s a van ahead that seems to have had an accident. Should we stop to help?”

“Let’s go,” Gu Wei said.

He had just been napping in the truck and his eyes were still not fully open.

The driver then brought the truck to a halt.

At that mont, Xiao Ding also peeked out and saw Su ixi by the van. He suddenly shook Gu Wei excitedly, “Boss, that’s the girl I told you about yesterday, the one who looks a lot like the person in your photo!”
