"Is it here? This place often hurts unbearably, and the pain strikes unpredictably."
"If I’m not mistaken, there was an injury here before, and there’s still something inside that hasn’t been removed."
"If I’ve guessed correctly, the object should be... shrapnel."
As these words came out, everyone fell silent, especially Camp Commander Cui and Sister in law Yu.
Even Sheng Zexi widened his eyes and looked at his wife.
After a long pause, Camp Commander Cui looked at Sheng Zexi, "Ze Xi, did you tell your sister-in-law in advance about the shrapnel injury in my calf requiring surgery?"
Sheng Zexi was speechless, "Brother Cui, how could I do such a thing? I didn’t tell her."
Camp Commander Cui: "Could it be that the sister-in-law figured it out on her own?"
If it turns out to be true, then it’s simply miraculous.
Considering this possibility, Cui Bin also became excited, "Sister-in-law, since you can diagnose it, can you treat it?"
As soon as he spoke, Sister in law Yu glared at him, and he immediately responded, "I was just too excited, asking for it. Even if you can’t treat it, it’s fine; after all, doctors at the hospital said surgery wasn’t suitable."
Gu Jia Ning blinked, "Who said it can’t be treated? I can treat it."
As long as she enters the Divine Doctor Space, studies the courses, and passes the assessments, she can do it.
"Sister Jia Ning, can you really treat my husband Old Cui’s leg? Please don’t deceive me," Sister in law Yu said, tears welling up as she spoke of her husband’s leg.
Cui Bin’s leg was injured five years ago during a mission.
Although he dodged the bullet, he couldn’t avoid the shrapnel, and it was deeply embedded in his calf.
Normally, such a situation would require surgery.
But upon admission to the military hospital, the doctors checked and said surgery couldn’t be done.
"...The doctor said the shrapnel in Old Cui’s calf is near a major artery, and surgery carries a high risk of injuring the artery, which is very dangerous."
"Because of this, surgery wasn’t done, opting for conservative treatment instead."
"But all these years, Old Cui’s leg has ached frequently, right where you pointed earlier. Sometimes the pain is so bad he can’t sleep all night."
As she spoke, Sister in law Yu’s tears fell.
And Cui Bin sighed, though they didn’t mention it.
Due to the recent severe flare-ups with Cui Bin’s leg, leadership said he wasn’t suitable to stay in the military anymore and might need to arrange for him to change his career in a few months.
But Sister in law Yu knew her husband genuinely loved being in the army; guarding the country was his dream.
If he changed his career, it meant his dream would be broken.
Sister in law Yu liked the environment of the military-dependent housing complex, where there were hardly any scheming or trickery compared to the countryside.
"Sister Jia Ning, if you really have a way, please help my husband Old Cui’s leg. We would be immensely grateful."
Gu Jia Ning understood their feelings too, "If you trust me, we can arrange a time for treatment."
"Sister-in-law, to be honest, if you treat me, what’s the probability of success?"
Gu Jia Ning paused, "Eighty to ninety percent. Even if the treatment isn’t successful, there won’t be any danger."
Actually, if she could pass the assessment in the Divine Doctor Space, the success rate would be one hundred percent.
However, Gu Jia Ning didn’t promise too much.
"Good, good, that’s more than enough."
Truthfully, because of Gu Jia Ning’s young age, Cui Bin and Sister in law Yu must have hesitated, but currently, they had no other choice.
Not long ago, Cui Bin went for a follow-up at the hospital, but the result was the same — conservative treatment only, no surgery possible.
The doctor said, "Given the current medical technology, the surgery risk is too high. Maybe in the future, when national medical technology advances, surgery will be possible."
But the doctor also mentioned that if he couldn’t hold on until then, and continued with conservative treatment, over time, the leg could become permanently damaged.
So, despite Gu Jia Ning’s young age, they decided to treat a dead horse like a live one, because this was their only hope.
After Cui Bin left, Gu Jia Ning also examined Sheng Zexi’s other two comrades.
[Ding, binding to patient No.4, Li Yong, upon completing treatment, you’ll receive a reward: 15 points, 50 pounds of pork, 5 roast ducks.]
[Ding, binding to patient No.5, Chai Jian Country, upon completing treatment, you’ll receive a reward: 15 points, 5 cans of milk powder, 5 roast chickens.]
Looking at those plentiful rewards, Gu Jia Ning felt extremely excited, but kept a calm demeanor.
After scanning, Gu Jia Ning similarly pointed out the conditions of the two.
Li Yong’s stomach problems have long been an issue, even developing into a stomach ulcer. Gu Jia Ning prescribed a formula, planning to offer treatment with Stomach-Protecting Pills later.
Li Yong’s wife, Sun Wei, gratefully took the prescription, "I’ll go to town to get the medicine tomorrow."
Meanwhile, Chai Jian Country’s spinal issues in the waist, also injured before, hadn’t recovered well, remaining a chronic problem.
For this, Gu Jia Ning didn’t prescribe medication, waiting until her ointment was ready to provide it for topical use.
Next, Gu Jia Ning checked other sisters-in-law.
The first examination was Jiang Baihe, Chai Jian Country’s wife.
[Ding, binding to patient No.6, Jiang Baihe, upon completing treatment, you’ll receive a reward: 100 points, Universal Hemostatic Adhesive Tape *5, Twin Male Treasure Pills.]
Huh?
Gu Jia Ning’s attention was instantly drawn.
How come treating Jiang Baihe garnered 100 points, equivalent to treating big sister-in-law’s Cold Uterus, allowing big sister-in-law to get pregnant?
These Twin Male Treasure Pills, Gu Jia Ning knew their purpose, they are...
But what is this Universal Hemostatic Adhesive Tape?
Gu Jia Ning took a moment to scan the introduction of the Universal Hemostatic Adhesive Tape, discovering it can instantly stop bleeding regardless of wound size.
Gu Jia Ning thought, this is surely a valuable item.
For instance, if someone’s injured, and there’s a severe hemorrhage from a major artery, failing to stop the bleeding in time can be fatal.
In this era, medical conditions are quite outdated.
Having this Universal Hemostatic Adhesive Tape is like having an extra life.
tapes equate to 5 lives.
This great item must be obtained.
After scanning Jiang Baihe’s body, Gu Jia Ning understood why the points and bonuses were high.
However, this reason was not suitable to be discussed openly.
"Sister Jiang, Mr. Chai, shall we have a word in private?" Gu Jia Ning suggested.
Jiang Baihe and Chai Jian Country exchanged a look before following Gu Jia Ning inside.
"Sister Jiang, I’ve read your pulse, identifying your longstanding emotional stress."
"This emotional stress means long-term worries kept inside, being overly concerned."
