Chapter 560 Doctor's Physical Examination
There was a glimmer of hope in his eyes:
"However, Director Liu also gave us a way. He suggested that we report the situation to the city government and apply to build another brick factory."
"He said that as long as the city can approve the funds, Jianye Farm will provide the labor force, which will be absolutely no problem. Everyone is looking forward to living in a new house, so they are definitely willing to contribute."
Zhao Shuzhuo leaned forward slightly and looked at Secretary Dong intently:
"Secretary Dong, we came here this time just to ask you. You are experienced and knowledgeable. Do you think this suggestion is feasible?"
"Will the city approve us to do this? This matter concerns the vital interests of the villagers. Everyone is eagerly waiting for news. We still need your advice."
The ward fell silent for a moment, and everyone turned their eyes to Secretary Dong, waiting for his reply.
In that simply yet solemnly decorated room, the atmosphere was quiet and solemn.
Secretary Dong sat on the chair with an upright posture. Although his face showed a little fatigue, his eyes were still focused and bright.
He listened carefully to Zhao Shuzhuo's report, not missing any key points or details, and nodded slightly from time to time, signaling the other party to continue.
After the report, the room fell into a brief silence. Secretary Dong frowned slightly, as if he was weighing something in his mind. After a moment, he turned his head to look at Grandma Dong who was sitting on the sofa beside him and said softly:
"Shujuan, go find the doctor and call Secretary Huang. Tell him that I have some urgent work arrangements and I need him to come over as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Grandma Dong immediately put down the handkerchief she was stroking and stood up quickly. She first slightly adjusted the corners of her clothes to ensure that her demeanor was dignified, then nodded solemnly and responded:
"Okay, I'll go right away."
After saying that, he walked out of the room quickly with steady steps.
In the corridor, the light shone softly, and Grandma Dong's figure seemed a little hurried yet elegant.
She walked towards the infirmary with familiarity, and met several staff members along the way, all of whom smiled and nodded in greeting.
After a while, he arrived at the door of the infirmary, knocked gently, and after receiving a response from inside, he pushed the door open and walked in.
"Doctor Liu, I'm busy."
Grandma Dong spoke in a gentle voice.
Doctor Liu, who was sorting out medical records, looked up and saw that it was Grandma Dong. He quickly stood up and said with a smile:
"Grandma Dong, you are here, please sit down."
Grandma Dong waved her hand and said:
"No, Secretary Dong asked me to come find you. I'd like you to call Secretary Huang. The secretary has some work to arrange, so ask Xiao Huang to come over quickly."
"Okay, I'll call you right away."
Doctor Liu said as he picked up the phone on the table and dialed the number skillfully. After a brief conversation, he hung up the phone and said to Grandma Dong:
"I've told Xiao Huang that he'll be here soon."
Grandma Dong nodded slightly and was about to turn around and leave, but Doctor Liu seemed to suddenly remember something and said in surprise:
"Hey, Grandma Dong, I just heard you say that Secretary Dong asked Xiao Huang to arrange a job for him. Is this the time for the Secretary to speak?"
A gratified smile appeared on Grandma Dong's face:
"Yes, I just listened to Zhao Shuzhuo's work report. The secretary listened very carefully. Look, there is something for Xiao Huang to do."
"Oh, this is great!"
Dr. Liu could not hide his excitement.
"I have to go take a look, and check on the secretary to see how he is recovering."
Grandma Dong naturally had no objection:
"Okay, let's go together then."
So, the two of them walked back together. Not long after, they returned to the secretary's room. Grandma Dong walked in first, took a few steps forward, and said to Secretary Dong:
"I've already called Xiao Huang, and he said he'll be here soon. Doctor Liu was very surprised to hear that you could speak, and he insisted on coming to see you. Let Doctor Liu check you out, so we can rest assured."
Secretary Dong raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a hint of smile:
"Thank you for your hard work, Shujuan. Doctor Liu, thank you for your help."
Dr. Liu responded with a smile:
"Secretary, this is a great event for you. It's not troublesome. Let me see it."
As he said that, he walked over to Secretary Dong and began to examine him carefully.
In the room filled with a faint smell of disinfectant, sunlight filtered through the gaps in the plain curtains, casting a few bright rays of light, as if coating everything in the room with a layer of gold.
Doctor Liu stood tall beside Secretary Dong. She was wearing a neat white coat, and the stethoscope on her chest was shining silver in the light.
She looked focused, holding the stethoscope steadily with both hands, and gently picking up the two earplugs with her slender fingers.
He put the stethoscopes into his ears gently and skillfully, then leaned forward slightly, and with his other hand, he very carefully placed the head of the stethoscope on Secretary Dong's chest.
Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she concentrated on capturing every faint sound coming from the stethoscope, as if she wanted to see through these subtle sounds to understand all the secrets inside Secretary Dong's body.
Sometimes she gently moved her head, sometimes she nodded slightly, with such seriousness, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her, and the whole world was left with only this search for vital signs.
Time seemed to stand still, short yet long. After a while, Dr. Liu finally stood up.
She first gently pinched the earplug between her thumb and index finger, slowly and carefully removed it from her ear, then methodically folded the stethoscope and gently placed it in the medicine box.
At this moment, her brows were tightly furrowed, forming a deep groove between her brows. Her eyes were full of doubt and confusion, and her lips were slightly pursed, as if she was considering how to start her speech.
After a brief pause, Dr. Liu turned to Secretary Dong and Grandma Dong and said softly:
"Grandpa Dong, Grandma Dong, judging from the detailed examination results, there is indeed nothing wrong with your overall physical condition, and your blood pressure is also maintained at a normal level."
"The heart and lung function also sounded stable, with no abnormal noises or signs of disorder. This is somewhat unexpected based on our previous medical experience and common sense."
Having said this, she shook her head slightly, as if to shake off all the confusion in her mind.
"You two also know that the disease that Grandpa Dong suffered from before is quite difficult and the severity of the disease is extraordinary."
"Based on my many years of medical experience and my research on a large number of similar cases, even if the recovery process of this type of patient is extremely smooth and all conditions are excellent, it will take at least a year for them to reach the good physical condition that Grandpa Dong has now."
"And during this period, he had to go through a series of tedious, complex, step-by-step rehabilitation treatments, as well as the careful care of medical staff."
