The Pretty Military Wife

Chapter 424 The left hand is saved

Liang Xinyue also knew that it was everyone's good intentions, and Sister Liao's health was indeed not very good. She stayed up all night to take care of herself.

I can only repay her after I recover.

After lunch, Political Commissar Xu went to the city’s armed forces department before returning to the regiment.

Liang Xinyue began to recover from her injuries under Professor Xie's personal care.

The entire left arm was stabbed three times, so now it has to be completely immobilized.

But even so, the other Professor Yang still gave Liang Xinyue silver acupuncture twice a day.

With the arrival of Long Xiaomei, Sister Liao had to have someone take turns to look after Liang Xinyue, and the two of them even divided the work. Long Xiaomei was in charge of the lookout most of the day, the first half of the night as well, and Sister Liao was in charge of the lookout in the second half.

And during the day, Sister Liao is mainly responsible for making suitable porridge for Liang Xinyue.

Sometimes there was chicken porridge, sometimes vegetable porridge, all kinds of conceivable dishes were made for Liang Xinyue, because she mostly ate liquid food.

And because Liang Xinyue couldn't move, Sister Liao and Nurse Guo took care of her defecation and urination.

She was not afraid of dirt or stench at all. Liang Xinyue herself was so embarrassed that she cried, but Sister Liao comforted her and said:

"Silly girl, my eldest son is almost as old as you. Don't have those mental burdens in front of me, your elder sister. Just treat me as your real sister. There is nothing embarrassing about an elder sister taking care of a younger sister."

"Besides, people eat grains and get all kinds of diseases. Eating, drinking, defecating and urinating are normal. I was thinking that if you could defecate and urinate normally every day, I would be happier. If you can't defecate, you will suffer."

Fortunately, the bed she was lying on was a simple, easy-to-care-for bed. There was a hole under her buttocks, where the potty could be placed. All she had to do was open a cover on the bed board.

Before each bowel movement, Xiao Guo would carefully fold up the bedding on the bed. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with her legs, only some muscle injuries from being kicked.

Originally, Xiao Guo wanted her to poop directly on the bed, because it was already covered and she could just put it away after she finished pooping, but Liang Xinyue really couldn't poop, so this was the only way.

Sick people don't have so many rules. Sometimes, shame in the ward has no meaning.

After two days of this, Liang Xinyue felt that she had become quite shameless.

And Sister Liao knew that she liked to be clean, so she would wipe her body every night, cleaning every place that could be wiped, so that she would feel more comfortable.

So, Liang Xinyue felt that after she was discharged from the hospital, she really didn’t know how to thank Sister Liao.

When Liang Xinyue had no feeling in her left hand on the second and third days, Professor Xie felt that his operation had failed.

Because apart from being able to feel pain, Liang Xinyue couldn't use her left hand at all, and she was completely unable to complete tasks such as making a fist.

Moreover, the left hand was still black, but the right hand had changed some color on the third day.

I can make a fist with my right hand, but I don’t dare use force because my shoulder bone is broken.

There were some strained muscles on her right arm, but Liang Xinyue was able to move every finger while enduring the pain. Now she just had to wait for recovery.

But the left hand is useless.

Sister Liao was anxious. She didn't care whether it was useful or not. As long as she was fine, she sat by the bed and held Liang Xinyue's left hand, bending and straightening her fingers one by one. Xinyue couldn't move, so she helped her move:

"Sister, no need. If it's useless, forget it. Professor Xie has already said that if it can't be restored, it will have to be amputated at the elbow in two days."

Liang Xinyue was also sad, and felt uncomfortable thinking about this. If she lost one hand, how would she hold her child and how would she be able to do so many things in the future?

But if you encounter it, you can only face it. Even if you don't have half a hand, you still have three and a half limbs. You have to survive.

But seeing that Sister Liao was not convinced, she kept sitting there straightening and bending her left fingers one by one:

"Don't worry about it. I'm fine sitting here now. I just thought that if I move my fingers, it will always be better. If I move my hands, the flesh and tendons will always recover faster."

That's the truth, but... I didn't expect that when Sister Liao went to cook, Long Xiaomei did the same. In this way, although Liang Xinyue couldn't move her left hand, with Sister Liao and Long Xiaomei around, her left hand was always moving.

It was not until the morning of the fourth day that even the provincial orthopedic expert came again. After consulting with Professor Xie, they both believed that the hand had to be amputated.

If it is not amputated, it will affect the entire arm and even life.

But that morning, Sister Liao suddenly said:

"It moved. Xinyue's left little finger moved."

Liang Xinyue didn't feel anything and didn't move.

Sister Liao's cry attracted Professor Xie and Professor Yang who were discussing something nearby.

But when everyone came to see, the queen was still there, motionless.

Liang Xinyue herself did not feel that she had moved, because she found that in her brain, she could not feel the fingers of her left hand, but she could still feel her arm.

Liang Xinyue asked in a trembling voice:

"Sister, you are dazzled, I don't even feel like I can move."

As he spoke, he tried hard to move his left hand, but it felt like the connection was broken and he didn't move.

Sister Liao gently spread her palms on the bed:

"I'm sure the little finger moved."

Sister Liao demonstrated to everyone:

"I always do this, rub her from here first."

As she spoke, she rubbed Liang Xinyue's wrists where she had been tied.

"Then I slid down, and I started from the thumb and moved her fingers one by one. When I moved the middle finger, the little finger moved by itself... Hey, look, look, it's still like this, when I move the middle finger, the little finger moves."

Several professors came forward and leaned over to watch. Sister Liao rubbed her index finger first, and when she moved her middle finger, her little finger really bent naturally along with the middle finger.

When the middle finger was extended, the little finger also extended a little bit, not a lot, but at least, it really moved.

It’s a pity that there are no instruments for examination in this era, so we can only rely on the feeling of old Chinese medicine practitioners to treat some meridian problems.

But now I see the little finger moving, which means that Sister Liao’s daily massage is effective.

Professor Yang asked Sister Liao to let him come. His massage technique is naturally different.

Sister Liao just wanted to help Liang Xinyue move her fingers, but Professor Yang was prepared to give her a real massage using traditional Chinese medicine methods.

Professor Yang did not massage this hand before because it had undergone surgery, which caused some damage to the tendons and veins. Therefore, he could only wait until the surgery was healed before doing some physical recovery.
