213 A Full Body Examination
“Lady Qin, the patient’s condition is very serious. He can’t get out of bed or move. Can I trouble you to make a trip down personally?”
Mo Ruyue finally understood why this little captain was so embarrassed just now. It turned out that it was because this sentence was really difficult to say.
Ping City and the County town were originally very far apart. Now that he had a favor to ask of someone, it was a little too much to ask them to travel a long distance to see a doctor.
“You want me to go to Ping City again?”
!!
Mo Ruyue raised an eyebrow and asked.
Although she wouldn’t treat the patients differently based on their status, if she had to run to every patient, she wouldn’t be able to take it even if she was exhausted.
“Lady Qin, I know this request is a bit too much, but that person’s family really can’t stand such a long distance journey. We have no choice.”
The captain said eagerly, “How about this? If you agree to go, we’ll pay to hire the most comfortable carriage for you. We’ll take you back and forth. We won’t owe you any consultation and medical expenses. You can take as much blood as you want, as long as you agree to go to the clinic!”
Mo Ruyue was not short of the transportation and consultation fees, but what really moved her was the second sentence of the team leader.
“You’re willing to provide your blood?”
Mo Ruyue’s words gave the captain a glimmer of hope. He immediately nodded and said, “Yes, I’m willing. As long as you need it, there are three other people in our team who have been selected. They are also willing!”
Mo Ruyue confirmed the names of the other three people with the team leader and was pleasantly surprised to find that one of them had the all-purpose type O blood, and the one who was not selected did not have a problem with his blood. It was simply because of the limited number of people.
Most importantly, that person’s blood type was O.
“Alright, that’s all. I will go to Ping City again. Forget about the transportation fees, but you will need to let me draw blood again.”
Mo Ruyue immediately stated her conditions. To her, the blood was the most precious, especially the all-purpose type O blood. If there was a major operation later, she would not have to worry about blood sources for the time being.
After the conditions were settled, the team leader happily went to report the good news to his team members. Mo Ruyue was also very satisfied with this result.
Although the 23 soldiers were now under her command, she could not treat them as blood sacs to draw blood from. That would be treating them as lifeless tools.
Besides, there were too many people. She had already drawn blood from these people once more. If the soldiers knew that she was still drawing blood from some of them, who knew what kind of rumors would spread.
That was why Mo Ruyue had repeatedly warned the team leader not to spread this matter, or the deal between them would be void.
At noon the next day, Qing Xi’s carriage also arrived. It was a day earlier than Mo Ruyue had predicted.
However, this was also good. An extra day would allow her to adjust her physical and mental state, so that she could be in her best condition on the operating table the day after tomorrow.
“Lady Qin, we have followed your previous instructions and did not dare to neglect the medicine for Miss. Although these two days of travelling were hard, Miss’s condition is not bad. She urged us to speed up and wanted to come earlier. So, we really did it in advance.”
Madam Du had been serving Qing Xi all this time. This time, she had also come over. When she saw Mo Ruyue, she immediately reported to her.
“Alright, I’ll give Qing Xi a full body examination later to assess her current condition. Imperial Doctor Tian will also be participating in this operation, so I still need to discuss the operation plan with him.”
Madam Du didn’t understand everything Mo Ruyue said, but she would still repeat Mo Ruyue’s words to Qing Xi. This was also a way to give her an advance warning.
The full body checkup still required another CT scan. Although it had only been a few days, the tumor in Qing Xi’s body was constantly changing. The current situation was different from two days ago. It would be more reassuring to have another CT scan.
An hour later, Mo Ruyue sent Qing Xi a bowl of tonic medicine with a small amount of sedatives. The medicine could recuperate the Qi in her body that was currently exhausted. At the same time, it was also to prepare her for the full body examination
Very quickly, Qing Xi drank the medicine and fell into a deep sleep. Mo Ruyue made an excuse to send away Madam Du and the maidservants who served Qing Xi. She instantly brought her into the interspace and out.
She had completed her full body examination and obtained the latest CT image.
From the X-ray image, the tumor seemed to have grown a little bigger. It looked like the decision to arrange the surgery as soon as possible was the right one. Qing Xi’s condition could not be delayed any longer.
Mo Ruyue quickly found Imperial Doctor Tian and began to discuss the final plan for the most important operation the day after tomorrow.
“Lady Qin, the risk of this operation is too high. Are you sure you can succeed?”
Imperial Doctor Tian carefully read the surgery plan that Mo Ruyue had written down. On the thick stack of paper, there were a total of five possible unexpected situations that could occur. The more he read, the more shocked he was.
The old woman’s surgery paled in comparison to this.
After all, they were going to remove a large tumor from the stomach. It involved the five viscera and six bowels, flesh and blood, and meridians. It was not just a small removal and suturing.
“As long as it’s a surgery, there will definitely be risks. If you can fully think of all kinds of situations and make plans in advance, you will have more confidence.”
When Mo Ruyue said this, she couldn’t help but sigh. “Of course, no matter how much you think about it, there will still be accidents. Isn’t there a saying that plans can’t be as fast as changes? But as long as we do our best, we won’t have to feel guilty.”
Imperial Doctor Tian also sighed and nodded. This operation could not be pushed back no matter what, so they could only do their best.
Mo Ruyue wasn’t as pessimistic as Imperial Doctor Tian. In fact, even if the current medical conditions were relatively poor, she was still full of confidence that she could successfully perform this operation.
The reason why she said that just now was because she didn’t want Imperial Doctor Tian to see her so relaxed and calm, and doubt her.
“Let’s do the deduction again and see if we’ve missed anything,”
This time, it was Imperial Doctor Tian who took the initiative to make the request. Although Mo Ruyue’s surgery plan was very detailed in his opinion, he still felt uncertain.
Aside from the two of them, the choice of assistants for this surgery was also very important. Of course, the most important thing was not only medical skills, but also confidentiality.
Before Mo Ruyue came, he had been filtering out the list of assistants. Among the people who participated in the last operation, two of them were not tight-lipped and had leaked the details of the last operation.
Although he had reprimanded them before, he could not guarantee that they would not commit the same mistake again.
