Chapter 1304: Chapter 1304: Mom’s Worries

Before getting off work, Liu Banxia took another round in the VIP ward upstairs.

This also shows the importance of VIP patients, making them feel that the money spent on this ward is worth it and that they receive special treatment.

Even though today was busy, he managed to leave work on time. This made Qiaoqiao quite happy.

Even though she supports Liu Banxia’s work, she doesn’t want him coming home very late every night. Besides, Qiu Huaili’s family is coming over for dinner today.

Auntie Tong and Xiaoyu have to go back tomorrow; they don’t have much vacation and have to work hard for their studies.

As the current only student in the family, Comrade Qiao Yu is under a lot of pressure, carrying the expectations of the whole family.

"Brother-in-law, when can you come around my area for a visit?" Qiao Yu asked.

"That depends on the situation. We’ll have to see how your sister arranges our honeymoon. Also, it depends on whether these two little ones behave. If they’re not good, it can be quite worrying," Liu Banxia said with a smile.

"It sounds like I have any say in this. Are you sure you can get time off then?" Qiaoqiao gave him a sideways glance.

"I’ll try to work it out, shouldn’t be a problem. Anyway, I’m starting to put more pressure on Xu Yino and the others, letting them take more independent appointments, including surgeries," Liu Banxia said.

"I don’t quite understand your field, but from the sound of it, there seems to be some risk involved," Qiu Huaili said.

"It certainly is, but to have it easier in the future, they will have to work hard for a few months now," Liu Banxia said.

"By the way, Old Cheng’s son still hasn’t woken up yet?" Qiu Huaili asked.

Liu Banxia nodded, "The time he was without oxygen was a bit long, and the cardiac arrest lasted a while too. Some small thrombi are in the blood vessels, but thrombolysis should be able to dissolve them."

"As for when he will wake up, it’s like it happens on TV; it depends on luck. If his will is strong, he can wake up sooner."

"The only bit of reassurance is that he is not in a vegetative state, but if he doesn’t wake up for a long time, it can be dangerous."

"Wouldn’t that make him a vegetable then?" Qiaoqiao asked curiously.

"It’s possible, but we don’t know what the activity in his brain is like," Liu Banxia said.

"And long-term bed rest poses the risk of pulmonary embolism. He needs daily massages and pressure stockings to prevent deep vein thrombosis in the legs."

"There’s not much more we can do now; just try to communicate with him as much as possible. Maybe that can draw his attention and actually wake him up."

"Brother-in-law, so do you say that this patient’s current state is that he’s asleep, or is he unconscious and unaware?" Qiao Yu asked curiously.

"Based on our understanding, his brain is likely experiencing certain things; his EEG is quite active," Liu Banxia thought for a moment and said.

"Does that mean he’s thinking and nothing’s wrong?" Qiao Yu continued to ask.

"Not exactly; it’s like something overdone is as bad as something undone," Liu Banxia said with a smile.

"Right now, his body is managing itself. If he mistakes his current condition as normal, wanting to wake up becomes very difficult."

"So, the sooner he wakes up, the better, with less risk. After all, our technology hasn’t advanced to materialize the things imagined in the human brain; we can only guess."

"That’s amazing, almost like a science fiction movie," Qiao Yu said.

"There’s some connection, and many things in movies and TV are relatable to medicine," Liu Banxia said with a laugh.

"Old Cheng’s family only has this one son; they’re understandably worried," Qiu Huaili said.

"Did you see the news today? The serious car accident with the barrier breacher, they were sent to us. This is the result of over-coddling a child, something we see a lot in the hospital," Liu Banxia said.

"Auntie Tong does it wonderfully with Xiaoyu; he doesn’t have any of those bad habits. That’s really great. But it needs to be maintained since high school and university are critical periods."

"Brother-in-law, I’ve always been oppressed. If it weren’t for you and my sister stepping in, I wouldn’t even have a new phone model," Qiao Yu lamented.

"It’s for your own good. At least now I worry more so I can worry less in the future," Auntie Tong said.

"That’s true; today I admitted a new patient. Hypothyroidism, but initially almost mistaken for depression due to overly strict parental management," Liu Banxia said with a laugh.

"Their family equally overemphasizes their child, also a single boy. They almost want to handle everything for him, even dating matters have to be tested."

"Later the test went too far, and the girl wasn’t willing, causing the lad to become upset. Anyway, these two little ones at home will rely on Qiaoqiao for proper management in the future."

"Don’t rely on me, I’ll have to play around too," Qiaoqiao quickly said.

"You’re saying this now, but when the time comes, you’ll stress over it too." Wang Jingxian said.

"I’m already a bit stressed about Doudou now; she’s so restless. Too naughty, watching her every day drains me completely. Hurry up and grow up so I can send her to kindergarten."

Doudou, chomping on a big shrimp, didn’t care what you were saying. Her feet stepping on Tiggie beneath her, thoroughly enjoying herself.

"Ming Yuan, how’s your uric acid level lately? Has it gone up?" Liu Banxia asked.

"Brother Liu, rest assured, I’m really careful about it now. Only those who’ve suffered know, I can’t eat indiscriminately." Qiu Mingyuan said.

"That’s a good comrade, just as you said, whoever suffers knows." Liu Banxia laughed and replied.

The dinner atmosphere was really nice, also because the families were very close, no one treated anyone as an outsider.

Of course, it used to be Liu Banxia and his wife who went over to the Qiu Family for meals more often. Now it’s because Peng Xiuqin is here, otherwise, they’d still be going over for meals.

"Ah... I’m really a bit worried now, not sure if the two little ones will be a handful in the future." After dinner, Qiaoqiao said, placing the two little ones on the sofa.

"Even if they’re a handful, nothing can be done. At that time, let Doudou help manage them." Liu Banxia said with a smile.

The two little ones are currently in non-sleep time, so they can’t just be left alone; they need people around.

"Actually, once they’re born, they’re all debt collectors; debts owed in the past life have to be repaid in this life." Wang Jingxian said.

"Just tell me, when will it end? From birth, then overseeing elementary, junior high, university, and even worrying about their marriage."

"If they’re somewhat hassle-free, it would be better, with no couples’ conflicts. If they have frequent arguments, the worries never end."

"You just wait, Doudou will marry our eldest in the future. If he dares bully Doudou, I’ll deal with him." Qiaoqiao said seriously.

"That sounds nice, but who knows who’ll be bullying whom. Doudou nowadays isn’t as steady as before." Wang Jingxian said with a laugh.

"Doudou, you’re going to be my daughter-in-law." Qiaoqiao leaned next to Doudou.

Though she didn’t understand, Doudou often heard Qiaoqiao say this. Habitually, she nodded, then went back to playing with the puppies.

"This is purely deceiving an underage girl." Liu Banxia remarked.

"Gotta work hard." Qiaoqiao said earnestly.

"Banxia, will work be busy in the future? Will there be frequent business trips?" Qiao Xuezhi asked.

"Yes, we’ve only started partnership with Jinshui District Hospital. Later, with the city hospital back home too. At the least, I’ll have to go once a month; ideally, every half month." Liu Banxia said.

"Fortunately, it’s not far; I’ll take Qiaoqiao along, treat it as a leisure trip, and do some surgery. At least for half a year, after that, it should ease up."

"Otherwise, we wouldn’t be ramping up for the six little ones now; feels somewhat urgent. Ming Yuan, tell Yueyue this summer she’ll be with me at the emergency center."

"Brother Liu, not this year, right?" Qiu Mingyuan’s face turned bitter.

"Indeed. How about I give you a five-day leave, have a sweet time, then go to the emergency center?" Liu Banxia asked with a smile.

"Ah... I don’t have the final say; see how she plans." Qiu Mingyuan said pitifully.

"Hahaha, then you get five days off." Liu Banxia said cheerfully.

"It’s time to lay the foundation, must treat it seriously. The sooner the exposure, the more the gains. Like an extracurricular class, others don’t have this opportunity."

He wasn’t just talking nonsense; it really is a rare opportunity.

Fairness? Where is there such fairness? Not to mention Xiao Zhaoqiu’s daughter, even for Qiu Mingyuan’s girlfriend, Liu Banxia would arrange properly.

With the resources, they must be utilized. It’s not an excessive matter, just necessary preparations.

But Qiu Mingyuan felt a bit worried, hoping to travel during vacation. Now that’s spoiled, what to do in five days? Need at least half a month, twenty days to be satisfying.

No choice, his girlfriend is studying medicine; the hard times have just begun, more hardships lie ahead.

The six little ones’ elder siblings are precedents; Brother Liu isn’t a good brother, too rigorous.

It truly was a rare leisurely time, and they chatted about family matters.
