The two of them sat down in the living room of the main house. Aunt Zhao quickly made tea and brought it to her: "Master, drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."
"good."
Aunt Zhao saw that it was already getting late, so she asked, "What does my boss want to eat for lunch? I'll prepare it right now."
"I haven't eaten your cooking yet. What are you good at?" Mingruo asked with a smile.
"If I want to talk about my specialty, it's chicken soup wontons. When I first set up the stall, there were a lot of repeat customers who came to eat. Later, the price of the stall was too high, so I stopped doing this business." Aunt Zhao said with regret.
"Then let's make chicken soup wontons."
"Okay." Aunt Zhao happily went down to prepare lunch.
"Master Wang, please have a meal at my house today." Mingruo liked this house quite a lot, it was simple and comfortable.
"Your home?" Si Haochen raised his eyebrows.
"Otherwise? My house is not my home. Could it be your home?"
"This king's palace is your home." Si Haochen glared at Mingruo.
"I'm not sure yet whether your palace is my home." Ming Ruo made a face at Si Haochen.
"You, you... I really don't know what to do with you." Si Haochen looked like he had a headache.
"Master... Master..." Nan Xing trotted in, "There is a patient with intestinal carbuncle in the medicine hall. Master asked me to ask Master to have a look."
"Okay." Mingruo stood up and went to the medicine hall, and Si Haochen followed.
As soon as Ming Ruo entered the medicine hall, Mrs. Zhu ran over: "Doctor Ming... Doctor Ming, you must save my brother... He is the only legitimate son of our Shi family..."
"Mrs. Zhu, please be patient and let me see the patient first."
Mrs. Zhu's younger brother was brought in by the servants. He was unconscious and had a fever. Mingruo activated the medical system and performed an ultrasound examination on him. It was indeed an intestinal carbuncle, which is what Western medicine calls acute appendicitis. In modern times, this disease is the first to be treated.
Surgery to remove the appendix will be considered. But in ancient times, most patients would be treated conservatively.
However, Mrs. Zhu’s brother has developed complications of peritonitis, so he can only undergo surgery. Otherwise, shock or even death may occur.
"Why did you wait until now to see a doctor?" He had been delayed for four or five days at least. Even though he was the brother-in-law of the richest man in the imperial capital, he wouldn't be able to afford medical treatment.
A man who looked like a boy immediately replied: "Isn't this just in time for the Chinese New Year? The master said that it is unlucky to see a doctor during the New Year, so he wanted to wait until the Lantern Festival before seeing a doctor. However, the young master fell into a coma this morning...
"
Mingruo was speechless for a moment, maybe he wasn't his biological father.
"He's quite tolerant." You know, appendicitis is very painful.
"..." The boy didn't dare to speak anymore.
Mingruo gave Shen Cong a pain-relieving and fever-reducing pill and asked him to take it for the patient.
He turned around and looked at the group of people who had sent Mr. Shi over: "Who can make the decision here? Come and talk to me."
This question stunned everyone. Except for Mrs. Zhu, even the housekeeper of the Shi Mansion could say a few words. But this decision...
Mrs. Zhu took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice: "Doctor Ming, if you have anything to say, just tell me."
"My brother is suffering from intestinal carbuncle, heat and poison. Treatment with medication will probably take a few months. The chance of survival is less than 10%."
After hearing Mingruo's words, Mrs. Zhu turned pale and took a few steps back. Then she knelt on the ground and said, "Doctor Ming, you have great medical skills...save my brother..."
Shen Cong felt that his master was really skilled in medicine and could hang himself for several months. If he were to treat him, Mr. Shi would only be alive for three to five days.
"Mrs. Zhu, get up first." Mingruo motioned to Mrs. Zhu's maid to help her up. "In addition to taking medicine, you can also undergo surgery." Mingruo briefly explained the procedure of the operation.
Mrs. Zhu was dumbfounded when she heard this: "If you cut your stomach open with a knife, can you still live?"
"I'm 80% sure about surgical treatment." If the surgery can be done in the operating room, and post-operative infusion can be used to reduce inflammation, Mingruo is 100% sure. But given the current surgical environment, Mingruo can only make a conservative estimate.
Everyone knows how to choose between '80%' and 'less than 10%'. If it were an ordinary doctor, Mrs. Zhu would not dare to choose surgery, but she and her husband were both treated by Dr. Ming...
Mrs. Zhu gritted her teeth: "Dr. Ming, I choose surgery."
"Okay." Mingruo nodded, "Old Shen, give them the "Operation Consent Form" to sign. Mr. Shi should be awake soon and ask him to sign it too."
"Yes." Shen Cong took the "Surgery Consent Form" drawn up by the master from the drawer and showed it to Mrs. Zhu.
Mrs. Zhu didn't know many words, and she was limited to the accounts submitted to the back house. Butler Shi read the "Surgery Consent Form" to her item by item. The more she listened, the more frightened she became, and in the end she didn't dare to sign it.
Fortunately, Master Shi had come to his senses at this time, and he understood Mingruo's previous words: "Bring it here, I'll sign it!"
"A Cheng, you're awake!" Mrs. Zhu looked at Mr. Shi in surprise.
"Sister, I am willing to do the surgery and I am willing to bear all the consequences of the surgery." Mr. Shi was really hurt. If it still hurt like that, he would rather die. "If you have any concerns, I will sign and sign it myself. "
"What are you talking about? Sister is just worried about you..." Mrs. Zhu wiped her tears.
"Sister, don't worry, just treat the dead horse as a living horse doctor." Mr. Shi was quite reasonable.
The siblings signed the "Operation Consent Form", and Shen Cong took Mr. Shi to the operating room to make preoperative preparations.
Mingruo also walked to the operating room and saw Si Haochen still following him: "You go to the back house to drink tea. This operation will be quick."
"I want to come together." When he thought of that man's white belly being displayed in front of his princess, Si Haochen was not happy that Mingruo would save him. However, if he was stopped, this girl might explode.
"You've finished your surgery and you're still interested in it?" Mingruo didn't understand why Si Haochen was so persistent in observing the surgery.
"Yeah." Si Haochen nodded.
"Okay." Who said he was the male vote he chose? What else could he do besides pampering him.
Si Haochen and Mingruo put on surgical clothes and walked into the operating room. Si Haochen was very satisfied with what he saw - Mr. Shi's body was covered by a white sheet, with only the abdomen exposed for the surgery.
When Mingruo enters the operating state, she gives people a completely different feeling than usual. She is calm, calm and skilled. People feel at ease just by seeing her.
A stream of blood spurted out like a fountain. Shen Cong was horrified when he saw it. Mingruo said in a deep voice: "Hemostatic forceps."
Si Haochen handed over the hemostatic forceps as soon as he saw the blood spurting. Mingruo took the hemostatic forceps and quickly stopped the bleeding. This kind of surgery is considered an entry-level surgery, and Mingruo handled it quickly. But The peritoneum is infected and needs to be cleaned carefully.
Once the intra-abdominal cavity is treated and the wound is sutured, the operation will be considered complete.
