Chapter 309: Seems to Be Praised
Tang Jianjun wants to improve the medical system, so when the entire Tiesi Village is without electricity, he manages to bring a diesel generator to the clinic, at least ensuring the operation of the existing examination equipment.
But the available equipment is not very good. Apart from some necessary medicines, bandages, and disinfectants, this clinic only has an instrument for checking blood coagulation function and a simple portable transabdominal B-ultrasound machine. So the simple examination mentioned by the elderly doctor is to check Little Mint's blood coagulation function and perform a transabdominal B-ultrasound.
This coagulation instrument is brought over by Tang Jianjun the day before yesterday. According to research, the blood coagulation function of people who are about to become corpses remains very good, so this instrument is considered very necessary. It is the first thing Tang Jianjun sends people to retrieve!
After a while, a nurse knocks on the door. The elderly doctor asks the nurse to take Little Mint for a check-up. An Ran stays in the ward. She wants to ask the elderly doctor what they should do if Little Mint is really pregnant.
But the elderly doctor looks very serious. Before An Ran can even open her mouth, the elderly doctor waves at her and says, "Bring Doll here, let me take a look."
An Ran brings Doll over. The elderly doctor stands up tremblingly; it seems her legs and feet are not in good condition. An Ran steps a little closer and watches the elderly doctor stretch out hands like dry tree bark, touching Doll's head circumference and the size of the fontanelle on top of the head, asking: "Have you given Vitamin D and cod liver oil?"
"I have. Every day. I never miss it."
Hearing this, the elderly doctor finally smiles. She tilts her head, looks straight at An Ran, and says: "It's not easy. Being a mother is not easy, especially in this world. To raise a child well, you need to put in hundreds of times more effort than in peacetime. You've worked very hard."
It feels like a compliment!
An Ran's face flushes slightly. Doll in her arms just wakes up and whines for milk. At this time, the nurse brings Little Mint back in, holding the results of the two examinations.
Confirming pregnancy is actually very simple. In normal circumstances, just a urine test would be enough, and it would only take a few minutes. However, urine testing is unavailable here. A coagulation function test and a transabdominal B-ultrasound are already all the tests they can do.
Seeing the young nurse hand the results to the elderly doctor, An Ran can't help but stretch her neck to take a look. However, the elderly doctor takes the results, sits back in the chair, and her originally relaxed expression turns serious again after seeing the results.
"Doctor, what's going on?" An Ran grows anxious and can't help but ask.
The elderly doctor looks up, eyes sharp, glances at the wooden-faced Little Mint behind An Ran, and says to her: "Lie on the bed and let me examine you."
With just that sentence, An Ran's heart sinks. Is Little Mint pregnant or not?
An Ran holds Doll tightly, her heart heavy. She looks back at Little Mint.
Little Mint stands there like a doll, not reacting at all to the elderly doctor's words. An Ran raises her hand, touches Little Mint, and whispers: "It's just a body check. Lie down on the bed. Don't be afraid. I'm going to feed Doll first."
Little Mint nods and, under the nurse's guidance, walks behind the curtain.
An Ran turns to the elderly doctor, holding the restless baby, and asks, "Doctor, this child is still so young, she..."
