Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 188 - 187: Sheng Xinhao Can Still Fight for Another Twenty Years!
Sheng Family.
Although Sheng Xinhao was discharged from the hospital, his hand still needs treatment.
Currently, he is undergoing conservative treatment, but he is still mobilizing his connections to find a doctor who can perform surgery or acupuncture on his hand.
He is afraid that his competitors will find out and take advantage of him, so even in seeking help, he doesn’t dare to do it openly.
He can only enlist the help of trusted confidants.
However, the past period went by without any news.
But today, suddenly, there was a clue.
"...You don’t know, my son said the situation was very urgent at that time, and if it weren’t for that girl stepping in, the old man probably wouldn’t have made it."
"This kind of situation happened before, almost always resulting in failure to rescue in time."
"But that girl, with just a few silver needles, pulled a person back from the hands of King Yan."
"My son praised that girl endlessly, and you know my son’s personality. If he truly admires someone, that person must have real skills that he’s witnessed. Otherwise... So, I think, although the girl is young, her acupuncture skills seem extraordinary, and perhaps she can treat your arm too."
This is an old friend of Sheng Xinhao from the railway department, whom he asked to help find a doctor.
Unexpectedly, today he called to say that his son, a train conductor, mentioned a girl who used a few silver needles in acupuncture to save an old man who was on the verge of dying.
He felt this girl might be able to treat Sheng Xinhao’s arm, so he called to tell him.
Though it’s not certain, it’s a source of hope.
"What’s the name of that girl, what’s her identity?" Sheng Xinhao suppressed his excitement and asked.
"I don’t know about that. If you really want to try, I’ll have my son investigate and see if he can find out. It seems they are a couple, and they got off in Beijing, so maybe they are in Beijing now."
"Okay, then please have your son investigate."
"Alright."
After hanging up, the man was startled, then slapped his head, "Forgot to tell Brother Sheng, the girl is pregnant, and the man with her seems to be her husband and looks like a soldier."
Perhaps Sheng Xinhao could try checking within the military system, it might be quicker.
Therefore, he picked up the phone and dialed again.
But after dialing twice, it indicated that the line was busy.
"Forget it, let’s have the second one investigate first."
Meanwhile, Sheng Xinhao felt that heaven was on his side after all.
Just after finishing a call with his confidant from the railway department, the suspected acupuncture master was found.
As soon as he hung up, he received another call from an old friend who once served in the Northwest Military Region.
"I have a student now working in the Northwest Military Region. He said a genius doctor recently arrived at the Northwest Military Region Hospital. That doctor has extraordinary medical talent and was even taken on as a student by Elder Chen."
"She can even save people on the brink of death from tuberculosis."
"Moreover, her surgical skills are remarkable as well. Previously, a battalion commander in the Northwest Military Region had leg injuries with shrapnel inside, and even the hospital director didn’t dare to operate due to the proximity of the shrapnel to a major artery, posing a life-threatening risk. So, it had been left untreated, only conservatively managed."
"Originally, the battalion commander had a promising future, but due to the leg injury was considering demobilization."
"But guess what? The doctor came and directly operated on his leg, removing the shrapnel."
"Now his leg is healed, and he doesn’t need to demobilize or retire."
"Old Sheng, I think you could consider trying this doctor for your hand issue."
On this end, Sheng Xinhao nodded. It was true, hearing about the doctor’s remarkable medical skills. Moreover, the battalion commander’s leg injury involved shrapnel akin to the shrapnel from a grenade in his arm.
He thought, if the doctor could remove the shrapnel from the battalion commander’s leg, surely she could manage his arm, which didn’t have shrapnel.
Sheng Xinhao became overjoyed and urgently asked his old friend to seek more information on the doctor.
"But, Old Sheng, I heard she’s a female doctor, you..." He feared Sheng Xinhao would distrust the doctor for being female.
Sheng Xinhao was slightly surprised; another female doctor, the alleged acupuncture master mentioned earlier, was also female.
Sitting in his position, Sheng Xinhao thought men typically outperformed women, but the country is advocating that "women can hold up half the sky." Around him, he saw many outstanding women achieving in various professions.
Thus, Sheng Xinhao didn’t look down on women.
However, regarding these two female doctors, he hadn’t considered their youth, just assumed they must be seasoned, elderly physicians.
"Old Xiao, what’s wrong with female doctors? Women can hold up half the sky, and as long as they are capable, it doesn’t matter if they’re men or women," Sheng Xinhao said confidently.
On the other end, Old Xiao was taken aback, then burst into laughter, "That’s right."
"Since that’s the case, shall I keep inquiring for you?"
"Okay, I’d appreciate that."
"However, Old Sheng, I heard your eldest son is in the Northwest Military Region, isn’t he? Actually, you could ask your son. He might know this female doctor."
Sheng Xinhao recalled seeing Sheng Zexi a few days ago, the boy still had that rebellious look, and it riled him up.
As a father, it was beneath his dignity to even consider speaking to Sheng Zexi about these matters.
Moreover, Sheng Xinhao felt that if his son knew about the issue with his hand, he’d be more likely to wish he’d die rather than help find a doctor.
Sheng Xinhao believed he was always thinking of his son, but the boy didn’t appreciate it at all and sometimes seemed to wish he’d die, which made him feel hurt and distressed.
Still, this was a family matter, not something to discuss with outsiders.
"That boy is out on a mission lately, so I won’t disturb him. Besides, I haven’t told him about my injury, worried he might be concerned."
On the other end, Old Xiao was momentarily surprised; this wasn’t the rumor he’d heard.
Wasn’t it said that ever since Old Sheng got remarried, his eldest son wasn’t on good terms with him?
But Old Xiao didn’t ask further.
"Alright, I’ll help you inquire and inform you as soon as there’s news."
"Good, thank you. If this works out, Old Xiao, I’ll owe you a huge favor."
Ending the call, Sheng Xinhao felt unusually rejuvenated, the previous frustration of not being able to find a doctor swept away, feeling that indeed, heaven wasn’t unfavorably disposed towards him.
Sheng Xinhao still has another twenty years to fight!
