After returning to the room, Cheng Tianyuan had already received hot water and took out her changing pajamas.
"Lingling, go and rinse it quickly. It's cold outside and wash the hot spots."
Xue Ling laughed in embarrassment: "My dad and my mom... they are coming."
Cheng Tianyuan was startled and asked, "Is something wrong?"
"No." Xue Ling replied: "They are worried about their father-in-law's arms and want to come and see him put on prosthetics with his own eyes. You also know that our father's arms are the most concerned thing about my father. I heard that he can put on prosthetics,
My dad was so happy that he insisted on coming and checking out to rest assured."
Cheng Tianyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I thought what happened to you just now. My father-in-law and mother-in-law also care about my father. If they want to come, let them come. Then settle the next door and we will all live together.
On the left is my parents, on the right is your parents-How great!”
Xue Ling smiled softly and explained: "I am not against their coming, but there is a lot of snow outside and the road is blocked, so I am afraid that it will not be safe for them to come."
"Yes!" Cheng Tianyuan said hurriedly: "Call your father-in-law again and tell them not to come. When the weather gets warmer, we will go to the imperial capital to find them."
Xue Ling stopped and smiled bitterly: "No need to persuade me, I can't persuade me. They are already packing their luggage. He said that the imperial capital is not far from the provincial capital, and they will be able to arrive soon."
Cheng Tianyuan frowned and said, "Why isn't it far? It takes three days to take the train! It's just that it's so cold this day, I wonder if the train will be blocked?"
"It shouldn't be." Xue Ling said: "The train takes track."
Xue Ling muttered: "Forget it! If they want to come, just come! My dad said he must come, and he praised me for doing it right. He didn't know that he had such good skills, otherwise he would have taken our dad there long ago.
Applying prosthetic limbs.”
Cheng Tianyuan thought back and said warmly: "Uncle Xue is a very kind person. If he knew, he would definitely do this."
Xue Ling nodded and explained: "I told the address of the hospital, it is not difficult for them to find it. Next, we all have to run back and forth in the hospital to maintain a good spirit."
Cheng Tianyuan urged: "You go and take a hot shower first and go to bed earlier."
"Okay!" Xue Ling agreed.
After a while, she wrapped herself in a quilt to do translation.
Cheng Tianyuan washed the two of them, soaked their hands in warm water, and hurried over to help copy.
He has very good grades in junior high school and high school, and his literary cultivation is also good. After copying Xue Ling for a long time, he slowly helped to polish one or two words, and occasionally adjusted slightly according to the context.
He polished it well and the context was smoother. She was completely relieved and threw all the drafts to him for help.
Xue Ling smiled while resting, "In the future, when I get the translation manuscript fee, I should score half of you."
Cheng Tianyuan glanced at her and whispered: "I still owe you a lot of money but haven't paid it back!"
Xue Ling glanced at him ambiguously and said, "Don't you pay me a warm bed every day?"
Cheng Tianyuan's ears turned slightly red and he whispered: "Write for a while, I can't wait to warm your bed."
The two of them played for a long time before continuing to write the translation manuscript.
...
The next morning, they went to the hospital.
They left early. Director Xue had just come to work and saw their family, he nodded slightly.
"I'll ask the nurse to call you to my office later, and I have to look at your arm carefully."
"Okay." Father Cheng nodded respectfully.
The nurse arranged for Cheng's father to take his blood pressure and weigh his weight, and then asked them to go to the hospital bed to wait.
Half an hour later, Director Xue called them to go and check.
Director Xue compared the bone photos, looked at several more examination reports, and then put on gloves to check again.
"The bones in the arm are no longer connected, only a few tendons and cortex are left to support them. Over the years, you have suffered a lot of pain! During the operation, you have to remove them from this place and wait until the wound gradually heals
, then install the prosthetic limb that suits you.”
Director Xue tried to explain to them in a common way and said, "I have a patient who has cancelled the surgery and can arrange for you to take a surgery tomorrow morning. Are there any problems?"
"No." Cheng Tianyuan replied: "We will cooperate with everything we should do."
Director Xue smiled slightly and explained: "The weather has been cold recently, and there are not many patients. You are here at the right time. Next month, I will go abroad with the dean to inspect and buy equipment and I will only come back before the New Year."
Xue Ling was secretly happy and smiled and said, "That's because we are destined to be!"
"The little comrade has a sweet mouth and is very good at speaking." Director Xue said.
Then, he looked at Cheng Tianyuan and said, "There are many specifications of prosthetic limbs nowadays. Of course, the better the more expensive it is. After all, you get what you pay for. There are still rare things that are good and cheap."
Cheng Tianyuan nodded.
Director Xue continued: "There are currently two types of imported specifications. One of them was just introduced in the first half of the year, but it is a bit expensive and there are very few patients selected. The other is the one I want to introduce, and its price is still
It's acceptable, about a thousand."
After hearing this, Xue Ling couldn't help but ask curiously: "The first one you said is a bit expensive. What is the approximate price? What is the best function?"
"About twice as much." Director Xue explained: "But it is more comfortable, more compatible, and has better softness."
Father Cheng was shocked and asked, "Two times? How much is that? Is it more than three thousand?"
Director Xue nodded slightly and replied: "One piece is three thousand yuan. If it is a pair, it is six thousand."
Father Cheng quickly stopped and whispered: "It's too expensive..."
Director Xue smiled and explained: "It's really expensive. Currently, only one person has chosen it, and the specifications are very neat. How to choose, I still respect the patient's own choice. After all, this is a huge expense, and we have to consider the actual situation of the family.
.”
Xue Ling thought for a while and asked, "Doctor, if you add other things, how much does it cost? The kind of 3,000?"
Director Xue replied: "It's more than 3,700."
"Then let's discuss it again." Xue Ling said.
Cheng's father was anxious and whispered: "Ling Ling, don't discuss it, just use the cheap ones. In fact, it's not cheap, it's still very expensive!"
Xue Ling smiled and explained softly: "Dad, I thought there was only one choice... But now there is a better one, so let's choose a better one. After all, this is for the body, if it's better,
Isn't it better for you?"
"It's too expensive!" Cheng's father lowered his voice: "It's not easy for you to make money! I'm very happy that you have the heart to take me to pretend to be prosthetics. I can't spend all the money on me, it's too wasteful!"
Xue Ling shrugged and said, "As long as you are diligent in all limbs, money is not a problem. What is we making money for? It is for this family to be better, and family members live better, and then take into account the rest. Spending on you is exactly what we make money.
How can the purpose be said to be a waste!"
"Haha..." Director Xue, who was standing beside him, smiled and looked at Xue Ling with praise: "This young comrade looks young, confident, rigorous in thinking, and clear in thinking. It's great!"
He signaled to Cheng Tianyuan beside him and said, "Don't argue, you should discuss it with your family. For me, the steps of the surgery are the same, no difference."
