Dr. Chung’s 90s

Chapter 98 Meeting No. [-] Again
  This year is destined to be full of gloom due to Song Bingkun's death.

Zhong Yu once again asked his mother and Cong Chun if they were willing to go to Guangzhou with her to change their environment and start a new life.

Song Congchun was willing to do this, but Zhou Qin was a little repelled.

She always feels that a familiar city can make her feel safe.

Zhong Yu was disappointed. Although she wanted to take them with her, she was unable to do so.

On the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, the transfer letter from the Military Region General Hospital was also sent. No matter how reluctant the director was, he had to approve the relevant documents for her.

Although she has gone through the process again, Zhong Yu still goes to work as usual. She plans to leave on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

On the one hand, she wanted to stay at home for a few more days and spend the Chinese New Year with her family. On the other hand, she also wanted to do her best for the hospital.

After standing at the last post of the New Year, Zhong Yu could finally rest at home on New Year's Eve.

Zhou Qin had made money in the past six months and originally planned to buy more ingredients so that her children could have a prosperous New Year.

As a result, Song Bingkun died unexpectedly. Song Congchun could not get over the pain in a short time, and she was not in the mood to make a big purchase.

But after all, this is the beginning of a new life for their family of three. Even if there are a few dishes prepared for the New Year's Eve dinner, it can't look shabby.

Song Congchun had been gloomy for several days, but finally felt a little relieved after seeing his mother welcoming the New Year actively.

Since the incident, he has slowly come to understand himself.

Life and death are not up to anyone, and every detail of his past with his father can only be buried deep in his memory.

There is no regret in life. He has regrets, and I believe his father also has regrets. Death is like a light extinguishing, and he will eventually move forward.

Zhou Qin got up early and got busy. She cut all the vegetables and prepared them. Zhong Yu helped with the washing and washing. Song Congchun also took care of all the dirty work at home.

Since his father left, Song Congchun's mentality has become more mature, and he has completely lost his youthfulness in the past.

Wipe all the tables and chairs in the living room carefully, then sprinkle the dirty rag with washing powder and pour boiling water to soak it, otherwise it will not be clean.

After soaking the rag, he put down the sleeves rolled up on his arms, turned to Zhong Yu and said:
  "Sister, let's go burn paper at Dad's grave first. When we come back, we'll put up couplets and then have the New Year's Eve dinner."

Zhong Yu wiped his wet hands, smiled and nodded in agreement.

He can say so calmly about burning paper, which shows that he has truly stepped forward. Others cannot empathize with such pain, so he can only overcome it by himself.

Zhou Qin heard her son and daughter's conversation in the kitchen. She froze her hands and felt sour in her heart. She didn't say anything else.

After the siblings left, Zhou Qin slowly regained her composure.

During this period, Aunt Fang next door specially brought fried lotus root dumplings made by herself.

Neighbors and neighbors also knew about their family affairs. Some of them talked about Zhou Qinkefu and said that whoever married her would end badly.

There was also a sensible person who helped to reply, saying that they had divorced a long time ago and that they would not be able to blame her if they died.

Most people in the world bully the weak and fear the strong. With Zhong Yu's ability there, he might be able to ask someone for help at any time, and he doesn't dare to say it too harshly. After all, he still wants to make more friends with them, and this matter has not yet fermented.

Zhou Qin did not reject Aunt Fang's kindness. It was normal for her to get along with her neighbors, and she didn't need to worry too much about everything.

Zhong Yu came back earlier than Song Congchun, and she was busy posting couplets as soon as she came back.

This house is in her name, she is the proper head of the household, and she should do these things.

Zhou Qincai was almost done and ran out to help her daughter.

Zhong Yu's couplet was given by the dean. Dean Liu's biggest hobby is calligraphy.

Colleagues at Nanshan Hospital basically receive couplets written by him personally during the Chinese New Year, and Zhong Yu is no exception.

Zhou Qin raised her head and directed Zhong Yu to paste the couplets. Zhong Yu stood on the stool and kept adjusting his position. The two of them worked hard for a long time to finish it. Seeing the new couplets posted were red and festive, their mood improved.

Zhong Yu turned his head and saw his mother's face was full of smiles, and she became happy unconsciously. She asked softly:
  "What's going on with Song Meiting and the others? Have you heard anything?"

Zhou Qin didn't care much and said: "I heard from my old colleagues that Song Botao still lives in the old house now. Because this matter has been brought to the court, Song Bingkun's money in the bank has been frozen. This matter is not settled. This No one can touch the money, and this matter is still causing trouble.”

Zhong Yu analyzed from the perspective of a bystander: "Song Botao must have regretted it now. If he hadn't gone too far, Song Meiting wouldn't have caused such trouble."

Zhou Qin has completely cut off contact with that place now. She said nonchalantly:
  "You will reap what you sow. If we don't participate in this matter, we won't get involved. I think spring is coming back soon. I'll go stir-fry first."

Zhong Yu said in a good mood: "Then I'll make some fruit wine and heat it up. You can also have a drink during the New Year."

The two mothers went their separate ways, and Song Congchun arrived home soon.

When the dishes were served, Zhou Qin first added two incense sticks, while Song Congchun went downstairs to set off firecrackers. The sound of firecrackers signaled the arrival of the new year as scheduled.

A family of three raises a toast and drinks together, bidding farewell to the sorrow of the previous year and welcoming new hopes in the new year.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, Zhou Qin was busy chopping dumpling fillings. The way Chinese people celebrate the festival is always inseparable from eating.

Song Congchun volunteered to take over the task of rolling out dumpling wrappers, while Zhong Yu shared the task of boiling tea eggs. The small house was filled with warmth.

The TV in the living room was on and a fire was lit in the charcoal stove. Zhong Yu also cooked milk tea on it according to the method he learned online.

A family of three is sitting in the living room making dumplings while watching TV and chatting. They have been busy for a year, and the comfort of this moment is particularly precious.

The phone in the living room rang suddenly. Song Congchun put down his chopsticks and stood up, "I'll answer the phone."

As soon as he picked up the phone, Ji Xueli's brisk voice came from the other end.

"Ayu, Happy New Year!"

Song Congchun curled his lips and teased: "My sister is making dumplings. Did you say hello by mistake?"

Ji Xueli was startled when he heard this. He knew Song Congchun and said with a low smile:
  "Happy New Year to my brother too! How are you all lately?"

Although Song Congchun had never met the other person, he had a good impression of him just by listening to his voice, and he said politely:
  "We are all fine. Just wait a moment and I'll call my sister to talk to you."

He didn't mean to deliberately make things difficult. After all, it was still unknown whether this big brother could win the beauty back.

He shouted toward the living room: "Sister, my colleagues from the Military General Hospital have called to wish me New Year's greetings. Come and answer the phone."

Zhou Qin quickly took the dumpling wrapper from her hand and urged:
  "Hurry up and answer the phone and chat with your colleagues for a while. You will need someone to take care of you in the future."

Zhong Yu patted the flour on his hands, smiled and nodded in agreement.

He called so early, and with Song Congchun winking at him, it was difficult to figure out who was calling.

She washed her hands first and whispered to Song Congchun: "I'll pick him up in the room. You can hang up later."

Song Congchun agreed without any objection. He watched Zhong Yu enter the room and waited for her to answer the phone before returning to the living room and continuing to make dumplings. Zhou Qin asked curiously: "Is the caller a man or a woman?"

A mother is always particularly concerned about her daughter's emotional state. Song Congchun did not show any abnormality. He wrote lightly:
  "It's a man, he seems to be the deputy director of their military general hospital."

As soon as Zhou Qin heard what he said, she lost the desire to continue to inquire. In her opinion, a man who could be the deputy dean must be much older and would definitely not be a candidate for his future son-in-law.

They probably had work matters to discuss, Zhou Qin thought as a matter of course.

In the room, Zhong Yu answered the phone, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his face was obviously happy.

"Who are you having New Year's Eve dinner with today? You're not going to eat in the cafeteria, right?"

Ji Xueli was in a good mood and said in a nice voice:
  "I didn't go to the hospital today. I stayed at home. My parents came from the capital to celebrate the New Year with me."

Zhong Yu was also happy for him, "Aren't you happy to have your parents with you?"

Ji Xueli said distressedly: "Although it is more lively at home with them, they are not very free. They chatter all day long. I actually want you to accompany me more."

Zhong Yu didn't answer his question at all and changed the subject:
  "My job transfer is already going through the process. I will go to work at the Military Region General Hospital after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month."

Ji Xueli was a little happy and said naturally: "Then let me help you clean the house in advance. You can move in directly when you come back."

Zhong Yu knew that he had mysophobia, but he didn't believe that he could clean. He questioned: "Are you sure you can clean it?"

Ji Xueli laughed softly, "I'm not sure. The main reason is that I may not have the time, but I can solve this problem, so you don't have to worry."

He is not an outsider anyway, so relying on him occasionally is a test of his abilities.

Zhong Yu said in a relaxed tone: "It's up to you, I don't have to worry about it anymore."

Ji Xueli liked her discreet tone, and he whispered softly:
  "How have you been lately? I'm too busy to keep in touch with you."

Zhong Yu didn't want to say anything bad to him on New Year's Day, so he said in a relaxed tone:
  "How could it be bad? Apart from being reluctant to leave my family and friends, everything else is fine."

Ji Xueli hummed. He felt guilty about this, so he didn't dare to say anything more.

"On the day my parents came over, I happened to be returning home from Haishi, and they caught me, so I informed them of your existence in advance. Do you mind?"

Zhong Yu was slightly startled. She didn't expect to show her face in front of her parents so soon, but it happened by chance, so there was no need to take it out on others.

She looked indifferent and said, "Don't they think I'm from an ordinary family and think I'm not good enough for you?"

Ji Xueli shook his head and laughed, his voice brisk.

"They were more worried that I was too old and not good enough for you. My mother directly asked me to quit my job and urged me to go to Haishi to guard you."

There was a smile in Zhong Yu's eyes, and she said affectionately:
  "You must have deliberately not told them that I was going to be transferred back."

She seemed to be thinking seriously and said: "It's not impossible for Dean Ji to transfer here. Haishi has unlimited potential for development. With Dean Ji's ability, there will definitely be a lot to do here."

Ji Xueli didn't care at all about her teasing and said cooperatively:
  "Then if you go to Haishi, you have to go to Dr. Zhong. Don't think I'm too busy."

Zhong Yu rarely heard him make wisecracks, guessing that the military exercise of the army was over at this stage.

"I won't tell you more, I have to help my mother make dumplings."

Ji Xueli is not a naughty person. They will meet soon and will have a lot of time together in the future.

Before hanging up the phone, he reminded me: "After you buy your train ticket, remember to call me. I will pick you up at the train station."

Since Zhong Yu didn't want to see him outside, it was natural for him to pick him up at the station, and he agreed without much hesitation.

When they hung up the phone and came out, Zhou Qin and Song Congchun had already wrapped the dumplings, and Zhong Yu just had to help clean up.

After eating dumplings in the evening, the three of them nestled on the sofa and watched the Spring Festival Gala, talking and laughing happily.

My family has not had the habit of keeping watch on New Year's Eve since I was a child. I would go to bed when I was full and sleepy.

Zhong Yu's father has no living relatives anymore, and so does Zhou Qin. Their ancestral home is not in Haishi, so there are no elders who need to visit.

Zhou Qin did have close friends and colleagues, so Zhong Yu and Song Congchun didn't need to come forward to do this.

No matter how unkind Mrs. Song is, she is Song Congchun's biological grandmother. The blood relationship can never be broken. Congchun always wants to buy something and visit her to pay New Year's greetings.

Zhong Yu went to the dean's house to pay her New Year's greetings. After all, he had taken care of her for so long and didn't make anything difficult when he let her go.

Teacher Ni mailed New Year's gifts in advance and called her on the first day of the first lunar month to say New Year greetings. She took all the necessary etiquette into consideration.

Zhong Yu went on duty at the hospital on the second day of the first lunar month. Tang Jiaren's family had many elders, and they were busy paying New Year greetings throughout the first lunar month. Zhong Yu took the initiative to be on duty for him, wanting to stay in the hospital for a few more days.

According to common sense, in the first month, unless the patient's life is hanging by a thread, he will not come to the hospital to seek bad luck, and he will be free on duty.

She didn't see any patients in the morning. She ate in the cafeteria at noon. As soon as she sat down in the office, the nurse called her to the consulting room in a hurry.

When she arrived at the clinic, she met two unexpected people.

Officer Zhao in their area had his uniform soaked with blood.

Seeing Zhong Yu, he said anxiously:
  "Doctor Zhong, I saw this man at a construction site in the area when I was on patrol. Before he fainted, let us bring him to you."

Zhong Yu looked at the unconscious man lying on the hospital bed with a puzzled look.

When I walked up to him and peeled off his face covered by wet hair, my heart suddenly beat like a drum.

It turned out to be Patient No. [-], the No. [-] who had been transformed in her hands and whose name she didn't even know.

At this moment, his arm was severed, and the wound on the stump of his right upper arm was severely contaminated with mud and sand. The humerus was exposed for 3cm, and the stump was irregular. The brachial artery and vein were compressed and embolized, and the muscles were oozing blood.

The median nerve and radial nerve were pulled apart like tension, and the ulnar nerve was exposed for about 20cm. The contusion was severe and the broken ends showed brush-like changes.

About 1/2 of the right biceps brachii, right triceps brachii, and brachioradialis muscles remain, and the skin tear-like cross-section is irregular.

The severed limb was pale, with a large amount of mud and sand adhering to the surface and the wound. The humerus was exposed for about 4cm. The right brachial artery and brachial vein had empty nerves and the median nerve was stretched like a tension. The broken end showed brush-like changes. The ulnar nerve was not found. The nerve passes through the remaining 1/2 of the biceps, triceps, and brachialis muscles at the medial condyle of the humerus. There is no bleeding and elasticity. The right ulna and radius can be palpated. There is angulation deformity. The middle phalanx of the index finger is palpable. Open fracture.

Zhong Yu said unusually calmly: "First complete the preoperative preparations. Once the patient's vital signs stabilize, replantation of the severed limb will be performed immediately."

After she finished speaking, the nurse on duty immediately ran out to make relevant preparations.

Zhong Yu didn't even have time to say anything to Officer Zhao, and quickly threw himself into the treatment of No. [-].

No. [-] woke up briefly due to the severe pain. When he opened his eyes and saw Zhong Yu, he fainted completely with relief.
