Chinese medicine: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 10 Bonus: Skin flap removal and skin incision! (Please save and read)
"Xiao Shitou, I met your classmate Pang Junfeng the day before yesterday. He said that he might have to go to a township-level hospital and couldn't even go to the county Chinese medicine hospital..."

At 12:55 noon, Zhou Yanqing, who had bought a box lunch, was planning to go to the training room to practice the incision technique again. His mother happened to send him a video call, so Zhou Yanqing temporarily changed his destination and took the box lunch back to the dormitory.

Mother Liang Yue was cutting her nails and placing them on the spread out paper towels while talking to Zhou Yanqing.

Pang Junfeng is Zhou Yanqing's high school and undergraduate classmate. Pang Junfeng failed to pass the postgraduate entrance examination and went for regular training after graduating from undergraduate school. Now at the end of the second year of regular training, he will only face employment rather than doctoral studies.

Liang Yue paused while trimming her pinky nails, raised her head and praised, "Your father asked your uncle to go to the County People's Hospital to ask Director Xu of the Personnel Department last week."

"If Xiao Shitou is willing to come back to work, not only can you be exempted from the written test, but you can also be recruited as a talent!"

When Liang Yue was full of pride, Zhou Hongshan, who was sitting next to her, interrupted her in a serious voice: "It's ok that you don't keep your mouth shut normally, but why are you telling these things to the child now?"

"Little Shitou clearly said that he would apply for a doctorate degree one after another!"

Liang Yue asked back, eyes full of dissatisfaction: "What's wrong? Can't I say my son is excellent? What do you know?"

"You..." Zhou Hongshan quickly explained to his son: "Little Stone, don't listen to your mother. You are a master's degree holder and want to enter the County People's Hospital. Isn't this a simple thing?"

The medical talent market is indeed involuted, but it is not yet to the point where a master's degree student from Hengnan University cannot even get a job in a county hospital.

The medical teaching strength of Hengnan University is currently second only to Xiangya University in Hunan Province, and is undisputedly the second.

Zhou Yanqing looked at the screen of his mobile phone. His mother's face was fat and his father's hair was gray. They were no longer as beautiful and handsome as Zhou Yanqing remembered. They were all getting older.

Zhou Yanqing picked up the water cup and drank a sip of water first, then said softly, "Dad, don't think too much. I think it's good that Mom speaks frankly."

"What I said before, if I fail the doctoral application examinations of several universities, I will return to the county to work and accompany you and mom. This is not a joke."

Zhou Yanqing's family is an ordinary resident in Xiazhen Town, Hengnan County. They don't run a business, they just work hard to grow a few acres of tobacco and earn some hard-earned money...

Zhou Yanqing put down the cup and shrugged his shoulders. His voice was calm and enjoyable. "It's good to be content with a small fortune. Let me think about it. After I come back, you buy me a house, and mom buys me a car. If I work hard, my monthly salary will be over ten thousand... In a few years, I can find a wife and have a child..."

"Mom and Dad, didn't you tell my fortune and give me my horoscope before? You said that I lack earth and wood. If my name can make up for these two, I will definitely be able to have enough food..."

Liang Yue put down the nail clippers and slowly faded her smile: "Little Stone, are you under a lot of pressure? You have always liked to pay attention to details when lying since you were a child. The more rigorous the details, the more serious your lies are."

"If you feel stressed, then we won't take the exam outside!~"

Zhou Yanqing's expression froze.

A wise child is better than his mother.

In the field of medicine, academic qualifications are the most basic stepping stone.

For example, after graduating from a junior college, people don't want to go to a small clinic and hope to work in a township hospital; undergraduates hope to stay in a county-level hospital; masters hope to work in a top-level city hospital; and only doctors can hope to work in a strong and excellent teaching hospital.

This is how life is. The more you accumulate, the more options and escape routes you have.

If his family was wealthy, Zhou Yanqing would not have to choose medicine, which offers a stable career. He could have just studied finance and rested.

If Zhou Yanqing could score 100 points higher in the college entrance examination, reaching 690 or so, he could go to one of the top ten universities, receive better teachers and enjoy better teaching resources. I heard that students there can "share" a cadaver teacher with several students in anatomy...

Seeing Zhou Yanqing didn't say anything, his father, who knew a little bit about the situation, quickly said, "Go, go, don't listen to your mother." "You have to go if you have to. At least you have tried your best. If you really can't go, you won't regret it, right?"

"Dad understands you. Dad has also known about this. The requirements for a doctorate may be a bit high. I heard that it requires CCI articles..."

Zhou Yanqing laughed when he heard this. It was not easy for his father, who had not even finished junior high school, to remember two words from an SCI article: "Dad, that's called an SCI paper."

"I will give it a try, but the chances are slim at the moment. I did not produce many articles during my master's degree. I only published two SCI papers, and one of them was a meta-analysis."

Zhou Hongshan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it is SCI. Look at me, your father. I have no education and my memory is not good... The only thing I can do for you is to give you some tuition and living expenses."

……

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Yanqing took a deep breath.

I looked at the time and it was already 13:12. I needed to go to the outpatient clinic to sit with the teacher at pm. Even if I went to the practice room, I could only practice for a dozen minutes.

In ten minutes or so, you can seriously complete forty or fifty incision exercises at most. Ten minutes is still ten minutes, forty or fifty times is forty or fifty times, let's go!
Zhou Yanqing chose to go out very decisively.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Under no circumstances should you expect to become fat in one go. This is the education Zhou Yanqing received since childhood.

In the afternoon, at 13:55, Zhou Yanqing arrived at the outpatient clinic early, prepared a pen, opened the main computer and assistant computer pages, and logged into teacher Gong Yi's account to make preparations before the consultation.

Then, Zhou Yanqing poured out the remaining water in the teacher's thermos cup and made a new cup of tea.

In fact, the tea brewed in a thermos cup doesn’t taste good, but when you are sitting in the outpatient clinic, it’s good to have this. Conditions are limited.

Gong Yi arrived at the clinic at 13:58. When he entered the room, he lowered his head to read WeChat messages. After entering the room, he looked at Zhou Yanqing and asked: "You are still in the practice room at 13:45?"

Zhou Yanqing smiled: "You are here to report this to the God of Ears. I have treated him to so many meals..."

Gong Yi asked again in confusion: "Yanqing, Ziwei also said that you can already cut and organize the preset graphics in the practice room?"

"So, can you try the skin incision for flap extraction on the operating table?"

Hand surgery attaches great importance to incision and suturing, so the corresponding surgical permissions are more stringent and detailed.

Since Fan Ziwei had said everything, Zhou Yanqing nodded and said, "Yes, Master. It's just that I just asked you to suture the skin flap. It seems a bit hasty to ask you to make an incision for the skin flap."

"You can't chew too much if you bite off more than you can chew. Just take it one step at a time and get familiar with it slowly."

Skin flap suturing is the task, and skin flap incision is made. Since there is no other task for the time being, Zhou Yanqing is not in a hurry.

"You can get used to it slowly, but there is still a threshold. Tomorrow is the day for the surgery, shall we give it a try?"

The master took the initiative to feed the fish, and I met the requirements, so I didn’t feel embarrassed: “Okay! Thank you, master…”

"Outpatients are coming outside..."
