Zhu Qiang saw Lin Jie take a fresh pig's head out of the car and quickly ran over to take it, asking curiously, "Dr. Lin, are you thinking about changing your taste for lunch?"
"My cousin's family makes great braised pig's head, their old broth has been around for more than a decade."
Lin Jie laughed, "I specially ordered this from the market to practice my skills."
"But don't waste the at, later you can take the raw at peeled off to your cousin's house and trade it for so cooked stuff. We'll add it to everyone's al at lunch!"
"Got it, my dad buys so of my cousin's pig's head at every day to go with his drinks, you'll love it for sure!" Zhu Qiang said happily!
Lin Jie was preparing for the cranial surgery for Lin Miao and An Weize. Due to limited conditions, there were no cranial cases at hand, and no corpses available for practice, so they could only use an animal's brain to practice.
Relatively speaking, pig brains are the easiest to get.
People often say, you're dumb as a pig, but in fact, that's a serious insult to pigs.
Aside from humans, just in terms of IQ ranking, pigs' IQ is second only to dolphins and much higher than dogs. In IQ tests, they easily outsmart chimpanzees, just that chimpanzees are more flexible in physical movents, closer to humans.
In terms of brain structure, pigs' brains also have many similarities with human brains.
Lin Jie asked Zhu Qiang to put the pig's head in the operating room and went to the second-floor ward to check on Xiaoqi's situation himself.
In the ward, Xiaoqi had already eaten breakfast and was lying on the bed chatting lazily with a middle-aged uncle. When she saw Lin Jie coming in, a smile imdiately spread across her face as she said, "Dr. Lin, you're here!"
"This is my dad, Sun Dafu. He's been out on the ship, just returned last night!"
Currently, Xiaoqi, with her plain face, looked pale but still very charming. Lin Jie felt that she was more attractive in her current state than after makeup, with an air of vulnerability.
Sun Dafu quickly stepped forward, gripping Lin Jie's hand tightly, and said gratefully, "My wife is pregnant, Xiaoqi was on the verge of death, and it's all thanks to you, really, thank you!"
Lin Jie felt the words were a bit ambiguous, chuckled, and began to check Xiaoqi's post-op condition!
After looking at her wound and the monitoring data from the instrunts and asking so questions, Lin Jie adjusted so dication doses and said, "Overall, your recovery looks good. Starting today, you can get out of bed to do so light activities. Walking a bit can accelerate your wound healing!"
Xiaoqi nodded, pulled up her hospital gown to look at the bandaged chest wound, and said gloomily, "I'll have a scary scar like yours, but the position isn't great, can't show it off to scare people!"
Lin Jie was speechless, this odd girl's thought process was just different from others!
Sun Dafu also put on a stern face and scolded, "Look at you, not like a girl at all! Always hanging out with boys, either drinking or racing and fighting!"
"Now your mom is older and pregnant, once you're healed, stay ho more and help with housework, take care of your mom!"
Xiaoqi grunted discontentedly, turned her face away, but didn't verbally rebut directly.
Lin Jie left the ward and went straight to the operating room, changed into disposable sterile work clothes, and began the pig at peeling work on the pig's head on the workbench!
His main purpose was to practice the feel and find the sense of performing a cranial surgery.
After Zhu Qiang took away the pig's head at, Lin Jie thodically extracted the pig brain from the pig skull completely, and then carefully dissected the pig brain, ticulously separating each functional area of the pig brain...
"So gross, I won't eat tofu pudding anymore!"
Lin Jie glanced sideways at Xiaoqi, who ca in uninvited pushing an IV pole, and said plainly, "This isn't the place for your stroll, go wander in the hallway."
Xiaoqi pleaded, "Dad's gone, no one to accompany , I'm so bored, talk with , please!"
"If you're bored, you can surf the internet, watch TV, or call Dahei, the Monkey, or other people over. I'm busy now, don't have ti to chat!"
"Then I'll just stand here and watch, won't disturb you, okay?"
Lin Jie ignored her and continued doing his own work.
Half an hour later, seeing Xiaoqi still standing there quietly, seemingly very interested in watching him dissecting the pig brain, Lin Jie said, "You're not suited for standing for long now, you should go back and rest on the bed."
"I'm not tired yet!"
Xiaoqi whispered, "Sister Shanshan told that yesterday my situation was particularly critical. Even in a big hospital, there was a big chance I couldn't be saved, let alone here!"
"She said, she had given up hope on , didn't expect you to miraculously pull back from the brink of death. Lin Jie, I owe you my life!"
Lin Jie said casually, "Sister Shanshan exaggerated it too much, she was scaring you."
"At that ti, considering our roles, I was the doctor, you were the patient, saving you was my duty and job, and I also receive a salary for it, so you don't owe anything!"
Xiaoqi insisted, "Regardless, you saved , without you, I would've died for sure, you are my savior!"
Seeing Lin Jie didn't respond and continued to ignore her, Xiaoqi self-consciously muttered, "You must be wondering why I'm called Xiaoqi, right? I'm my dad's only daughter, not seventh among cousins or siblings!"
"Want to know why?"
Xiaoqi answered her own question, "Since you're so curious, let tell you! I was born on July 7th, at 7:07 AM. Dad said I have a connection with the number seven, so he nad Sun Xiaoqi!"
"It's not a girl's na at all, dad was just lazy, annoyed I'm a girl, and gave such a casual na!"
Xiaoqi sulked with a face about to cry, "I wanted to change my na when I grew up, but Dad wouldn't let , I'm so frustrated."
"Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi!" At this point, Zhang Daya's voice ca from outside the operating room.
"Seems I really should be going back, it was nice chatting with you. Bye-bye!"
After saying this, Xiaoqi pushed the IV pole and slowly moved out of the operating room!
Lin Jie continued dissecting the pig's brain for another five hours.
In the afternoon, he received a call from An Kexin.
"Today, my dad experienced stabbing head pain and dizziness, almost fell. I want to arrange a personal nurse, but my dad won't allow it, fearing Keng might notice sothing's wrong."
"Lin Jie, the operating room is ready. Can we do the surgery earlier?"
Lin Jie estimated his physical condition. The results of his intense training during this period were quite good, and he figured he could maintain his energy throughout the surgery by taking so side-effect reduced stimulants if necessary.
Thinking of this, he said, "I have no problem with it, but one thing, my sister's surgery won't be moved up! If you trust my skills, and Mr. An agrees, the surgery can be earlier, I have no objections!"
There was a brief silence on the other end of the line!
"I'll discuss it with my dad then! Lin Jie, when will you co to inspect the operating room?"
Lin Jie thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow evening, I'll co over after work!"
