Merchant and doctor

Chapter 2377 She really had a tough time.
Teng Daili is actually quite capable. She managed the "Xichunhe" branch much better than she had imagined. However, she suddenly encountered a particularly difficult patient. If it weren't for the fact that the situation was so complicated, she would never have bothered Bian Mu.

As the head of the main branch, Bian Mu could only rush over to take care of things as soon as possible.

After getting on the bus, Bian Mu called "Striped Face" and asked him to contact Sun Zhengting and find out from acquaintances what exactly happened to the female patient with bone injuries.

Afterwards, Bian Mu also called Lao Hou and asked him to secretly keep an eye on what special background the female patient had.

He also called Dian Shuhua, telling him to eat a little something first and then meet up in Teng Daili's clinic later.

……

The female patient looked to be around thirty-six or thirty-seven years old. Although she looked a bit haggard, she was quite pretty, with big, double-lidded eyes and straight hair that reached her ears. At that moment, she stubbornly sat on the floor and refused to get up no matter what.

Fortunately, the heating was still on, and there was underfloor heating under the clinic floor, so it was clean and safe for her to be safe for the time being.

“My surname is Bian, and I’m Dr. Teng’s boss. I’m raising two children all by myself… It’s not very convenient for my family back home to help out, so it’s really not easy for me. Dr. Teng has been working hard all morning, so… how about we arrange for her to go home for a meal first? If she needs anything, she can tell me, okay?” Bian Mu approached the female patient and offered a few kind words of advice.

"I was forced into this situation. I come from a respectable family... I couldn't have taken this step unless absolutely necessary... My two children are still young. If I become disabled, what will become of them..." As she spoke, the woman began to sob softly.

For a moment, the scene was quite awkward.

Teng Daili certainly couldn't leave like that, so she stood quietly beside the consultation table with a sullen face, not saying a word.

“I know you’ve had a tough time… So… can you accept letting me handle your bone injury?” With no better options, Bian Mu had no choice but to take on the trouble himself and figure out a solution later.

The woman placed her hands on the ground, lowered her head, and nodded repeatedly.

"Dr. Teng! It's getting late. I'll take care of things here. You can go back now!" As she spoke, Bian Mu winked at Teng Daili.

As if granted a pardon, Teng Daili hesitated slightly, then nodded gently, picked up her usual handbag, and quietly left without even changing her white coat.

It's not that Teng Daili is afraid of trouble, nor that she's ignorant; in this kind of situation, her presence would actually cause more trouble.

It's quite obvious that the woman who was causing trouble on the floor was most likely targeting Bian Mu from the very beginning.

"Since you've decided to resort to this tactic, why not just stage this at our main facility? Don't misunderstand, I'm just curious and asking casually. If you don't want to talk about it, just pretend I didn't say anything." Bian Mu wasn't in a hurry. He called over the on-duty nurse to help the woman to the sofa or bed and said these few words in a gentle tone. Observing her expression, Bian Mu had already begun to pay attention to the bone injury on the woman's leg.

"Your fees are too high! Perhaps Master Teng can reduce some of the medical expenses. We're all women... I heard their family is quite well-off, they wouldn't go to such extremes..." Well! The woman actually spoke with a self-righteous expression.

In the past two years, in certain situations, some truths and falsehoods cannot be judged by ordinary standards, and Bian Mu has long been accustomed to this. "I see... Then... how exactly did you get injured?" Bian Mu asked unhurriedly.

"It was a minor car accident, and it was my fault for being in a hurry. I was riding my electric bike to take my child to school, with two other kids on the back and one behind. At the time... I was in a rush and was trying to take a shortcut when I collided with a van. I was primarily responsible, and the other driver was only liable for 30%... so it was... really adding insult to injury..."

"Have you settled the division of responsibility with that car owner?" Bian Mu asked with a smile.

"Pretty much... The car owner is a very honest person, also from out of town, and even poorer than me! He had to borrow the compensation from a fellow villager... He has three children... He's really unlucky... If I really need to spend more money later, I'll contact him, and I believe he won't completely refuse..."

"I see... Your situation is indeed a bit special... So... the accident investigation... can only be conducted by the Fifth Municipal Hospital? Or the Municipal Central Hospital?"

"Initially, we were scheduled to go to the Fifth Municipal Hospital, but then they took pity on our family and made an exception, changing the ticket to the Municipal Central Hospital. There are still many good people in this world... Otherwise... Dr. Teng would have already had someone carry me out into the street..."

"That can't be... Then... Why didn't the hospital perform the surgery back then? Why did they delay until now?!"

"Director Wan is a really good person! He said the bone injury was a bit unusual, and if we did a traditional open surgery, the slightest mistake could lead to endless problems in the recovery process. Looking at the X-ray... he said the bone sutures weren't fitting properly or something, but I didn't really understand. However, I could tell that Director Wan really meant well. I don't have much money, and my family still has some debts. Conservative treatment is the most suitable option for me, but... the three of us can't always rely on my parents for money, right? Besides... lately, whenever I lift my leg, my knee joint keeps making a cracking sound, which scares me so much that I can't sleep at night... What's even more troublesome is that the left side of my body seems to be getting more and more numb. I suspect that I'll probably be bedridden soon... I really had no other choice... so I resorted to this..." The woman didn't even look up, just talking as she thought of things, explaining to herself.

Hearing this, Bian Mu felt that it was pretty much what she had guessed.

Just then, Dian Shuhua rushed over.

Clearly, he rushed over as soon as he got off work, without even having a sip of water, let alone lunch.

Dian Shuhua stopped a short distance away and didn't go any further. He knew better than anyone how kind Bian Muxin was. The fact that his boss was letting the female patient sit on the ground like that must have his own special intentions. If his boss didn't say anything, he would definitely ignore it.

"Dr. Dian! Give me a hand. The injury is to her right leg, and the location is quite complicated. It's a type 6 comminuted fracture, and the bone sutures are stuck together. Other colleagues didn't dare to move her after seeing the X-ray and suggested conservative treatment. Unfortunately, due to special family circumstances, other auxiliary treatment measures couldn't be implemented in time, which led to this awkward situation... By the way, how long has it been since the injury?! Less than 100 days, right?" At this moment, Bian Mu suddenly realized that he had overlooked something and quickly asked a few more questions.

"It's been 90 days... Anyway, it's less than 100 days. I've been gritting my teeth and enduring it, but a few days ago I had an X-ray to check... The situation is completely different from what they said, so I got anxious..." The woman suddenly sped up her speech and replied a few sentences.

"Oh...no wonder! Dr. Dian, do you understand now? We'll calculate the force and angle of our support before we help her up..." Bian Mu gave Dian Shuhua a few instructions.

Without saying anything, Dian Shuhua simply nodded slightly.

"We've practiced for a few days, so we know how to use our skills. Don't try to use the opposite of what we're doing later, understand?" Bian Mu said with a smile, giving the woman a few words of advice.

The woman seemed to be quite intelligent; upon hearing this, she nodded vigorously.
