Chapter 89:
After assessing Jiang Xu's physical condition several times and discussing with the expert team involved in the operation, Shen Fangyu set the operation date on the previously calculated due date—April 1st, April Fool's Day.
Jiang Xu also moved into the residence that Zheng Qi had prepared for them a week earlier.
Shen Fangyu would spare part of the time every day to go to Jihua to maintain his surgical skills, and hold meetings with the surgery team. The rest of the time, he basically stayed at home with Jiang Xu.
So Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu replayed Kenn's surgery video and the first half of Albert's video countless times, and both of them could memorize the thesis.
After a series of deliberations and discussions, the final preoperative preparation and surgical plan were basically prepared with reference to Kenn's thesis, only some details were changed.
The houses in the suburbs are much more spacious than the urban areas, and the place is kept clean. The location is quite quiet. In the study, the two of them are either reading documents, discussing, or watching the video that is about to vomit together.
Occasionally, Shen Fangyu couldn't help complaining, "It's been more than ten years since I finished the college entrance examination, and I feel like I'm back in my third year of high school."
Doing the questions over and over again, taking the papers over and over again, repeating, analyzing, summarizing, and reflecting non-stop, watching the number on the red countdown card getting smaller and smaller.
Jiang Xu lowered his head to look at the tablet, the yellow sunset fell on his side face, Shen Fangyu looked over, and even had the illusion that Jiang Xu was sitting with him in the classroom of the third year of high school preparing for the exam.
The surgery time was approaching day by day. On the last sunset-filled evening, when watching the video for the last time, Shen Fangyu turned off the projector and took away the tablet from Jiang Xu's hand.
"I don't want to watch it, I must have a good rest tonight." He stood up and pulled Jiang Xu with both hands, "Let's go, I will make tiger skin green peppers for you to eat."
Jiang Xu's swivel chair turned ninety degrees following Shen Fangyu's movements, and was forced to face him.
He sat on the chair with some helplessness, let Shen Fangyu hold his two hands, looked up at Shen Fangyu slightly, and criticized: "If you don't learn it yourself, don't let others learn it."
Shen Fangyu made him laugh angrily, "At this time, you can put away your heart of being a top student, Jiang No. 1. I only owe Dongfeng that everything is ready, and I have to watch it all the time. I know everything by heart. Yes, you can't go wrong."
"Very confident." Jiang Xu smiled at first, and shook Shen Fangyu's hand, "Pull me up."
Shen Fangyu exerted a little strength, and he followed his strength to stand up, let go of his hands and supported his waist, and said with emotion: "It's getting heavier and heavier."
"Let me weigh it?"
After Shen Fangyu finished speaking, he suddenly hugged him horizontally. Jiang Xu was not surprised, knowing that Shen Fangyu couldn't throw him, he didn't bother to struggle, and let him hold him.
"Why are you so tempered now?" Shen Fangyu exclaimed.
Jiang Xu put his hands around his neck to keep him stable, and said, "I'm used to it."
An adult carrying the weight of a child is still quite strenuous. Shen Fangyu walked through the living room, carried Jiang Xu into the dining room, and put a cushion on the chair for him before slowly putting him down.
While Shen Fangyu was washing the vegetables, he chatted casually with him.
"Hey Jiang Xu, what were you doing the night before the college entrance examination, did you suffer from insomnia?"
"Before the college entrance examination? Let me think about it..."
Jiang Xu rested his head on one hand, and saw that Shen Fangyu was wearing an apron, looking like a chef.
"I remember, I seemed to want to eat instant noodles at the time," he said, "but my parents never let me eat them, so I went to the supermarket to buy a box after school, and secretly soaked them after my parents were asleep. Yes, it tastes delicious."
"I should have gone to bed after eating, and I didn't suffer from insomnia."
After listening, Shen Fangyu seemed to finally understand why Jiang Xu's house had such a big instant noodle tower.
"What about you?" Jiang Xu asked him.
"I went to the cinema near my house to watch a movie. At that time, the cinema was not as lively as it is now, and there were few people in City B. Even one-fifth of the cinema could not be filled. I had a relative showing a movie there, and I showed it that day. I didn’t want to study anymore, I thought there was no one at home anyway, so I ran over.”
"Do you remember what you saw?"
"I don't remember," Shen Fangyu said firmly, "But it's definitely not a ghost movie anyway."
Jiang Xu couldn't help laughing out loud. After a long while, he suddenly stood up and walked behind Shen Fangyu to untie his apron.
"What are you doing?" Shen Fangyu teased him, "Kitchen play?"
Jiang Xu glanced at him, and in the smile of the other party, he tore off half of his apron, "Stop cooking, let's go buy instant noodles."

"ah?"
"Maybe..." Jiang Xu paused, and said in a low voice, "If I did what I did before the college entrance examination tonight, I will go as smoothly as the college entrance examination tomorrow."
Shen Fangyu was taken aback when he heard the words, his eyelashes trembled slightly.
After a while, he dried his hands, followed Jiang Xu to take off his apron, took his hand and said, "Okay, superstitious once, let's go buy instant noodles."
The two doctors who are going to be on the operating table tomorrow took a break from their busy schedule. They sat down seriously and ate two boxes of instant noodles. By the way, with the fragrance of fresh and tangy seasonings, they watched a comedy with a lot of laughs on the projection screen in the living room. Movie.
I don't know if it's because of too much pressure, but this moment is released, or because I have been watching horror movies, and occasionally a comedy movie is particularly novel, and the two of them laughed together, relaxed and comfortable in a rare way.
After tidying up and lying down at night, Shen Fangyu brushed Jiang Xu's hair on his forehead, and recalled, "It's the first time I see you smiling so happily."
Jiang Xu hooked the corners of his mouth lightly, but didn't make a sound.
Shen Fangyu looked at him, saw that he was silent, and kissed his finger again, "What are you thinking?"
Jiang Xu put his hands on his stomach and didn't answer him. After a long time, he said to Shen Fangyu: "Tell her 'see you tomorrow'."
"Okay," Shen Fangyu was stunned for a moment, then sat up, lowered his head and kissed Jiang Xu's swollen abdomen, and said to Xiaoxiao gently and affectionately, "See you tomorrow."
Perhaps it was the phrase "see you tomorrow" that made the fussy little girl look forward to it. That night, she was very understanding and didn't disturb Jiang Xu's sleepiness.
In fact, Jiang Xu thought that he would definitely suffer from insomnia today, but in fact, he slept more peacefully than every night in the past month. He fell asleep too fast and too deeply. He didn't even realize that Shen Fangyu had insomnia until late at night. .
The car booked in advance in the morning took him all the way to the hospital. The fasting before the operation made Jiang Xu feel a little lost. After the preoperative examination, he changed his clothes and shoes, and entered the operation as a patient for the first time. into the room, but found that Shen Fangyu was the only one in it.
"What about the others?" Jiang Xu asked.
"Come over later." Shen Fangyu said, "Go and lie down first."
He helped Jiang Xu adjust the pre-installed partition curtain and a small player above his head—this was Jiang Xu's request, and he hoped to observe the whole operation process.
Shen Fangyu was worried that he would have a stress reaction watching this kind of scene, Jiang Xu just said to him: "If you dare to watch, I will."
"Is this perspective okay?" he asked.
Jiang Xu nodded.
Shen Fangyu stretched out his hand and gave a thumbs up, "This gesture is to pause." He then gestured a thumbs down, "This gesture means you have something to say to me."
In order to prevent accidents, they prepared to inhale oxygen throughout the whole process. The oxygen mask would affect Jiang Xu's speech, so Shen Fangyu came up with these small codes, "If you feel something is wrong during the operation, whether it is your physical condition or what you noticed Details, or special circumstances after laparotomy, need to discuss with me about surgical adjustments, you can interrupt me at any time."
Jiang Xu let out a "hmm", waited for a while, and found that Shen Fangyu was still standing beside him dawdling, rubbing the alcohol on the screen above his head over and over again, not sure if he wanted to disinfect or smoke him out.
Jiang Xu coughed twice, the fluctuating hormones in the third trimester made him a little irritable, "What are you talking about, can you do it?"
fantastic.
Jiang Xu's words seemed to be back to what they said when they were facing each other, and the tension that had been lingering in Shen Fangyu's heart suddenly faded away, and he even made a joke:
"Don't be afraid, I promise you with my many years of professional career, if you don't get off the operating table alive, I will pay you to buy a cemetery."
Jiang Xu began, "Who is so afraid of—"
As long as you say you're not afraid... you won't be afraid.
The oxygen mask was buckled on Jiang Xu's face, blocking his voice.
Before turning on the camera in the operating room, the carefree Dr. Shen only had confessed love in his eyes.
"I can't kiss you now, but I will always be with you."
"Jiang Xu," Shen Fangyu said, "Although this child was born on April Fool's Day, trust me, I'm not here to make a joke."
After speaking, he took a deep breath, raised his head and pressed the video and recording switch, then turned and walked out of the operating room.
"Prepare for disinfection and anesthesia."
When he came back again, the surgery team had already performed their duties, and Shen Fangyu couldn't see much expression on his face.
The blue surgical cap covered his hair. He held up his washed hands, and under Jiang Xu's watchful eye, he waited for the nurse standing behind him to fasten the tie on the back of the sterile surgical gown.
Put on white latex gloves, wrap the cuffs, untie the slipknot at the waist, hand over the right belt to the nurse, rotate it to wrap the back, and then slowly tie the knot on the chest.
The movements that have been done countless times still look skillful at this moment, and they seem to be the same as every time.
Shen Fangyu walked to the operating table, looked at the area where the draping and disinfection had been completed, and took a long, long, deep breath under the cover of the light blue mask.
The area of the shop is very wide, and from this angle, he couldn't see Jiang Xu's face.
So when he lowered his eyes and picked up the scalpel, he had to be an absolutely calm chief surgeon.
The sharp scalpel cut open the lover's body layer by layer, and the instructions continued to be issued one after another.
"Ready to take out the fetus."
"Clean up amniotic fluid and amniotic membrane residue."
"Confirm uterine shortening."
"Preparing for abdominal exploration."
"All organs are in good condition and ready to be removed."
"..."
Shen Fangyu's hands were steady.
Jiang Xu's vital signs are also stable.
He calmly looked at the familiar operation picture on the screen, repeatedly comparing it with Kenn's operation in his mind.
Except for his heartbeat speeding up at the moment when he heard Xiaoxiao crying, all his statistics were quite stable.
Dr. Shen, who had delivered many children, only had time to look at his daughter, cut the umbilical cord short, and then turned his attention back to Jiang Xu.
The cry was very loud, her hair was very black and thick, and her face was very red and moist.
Most of the newborn children are wrinkled and covered with all kinds of dirty things, which is ridiculous, and I don't know if it is because Jiang Xu's cleanliness has been passed down to her.
But after just one glance, Shen Fangyu knew that it was a very healthy baby.
In order not to interfere with the continuation of the operation, the doctors in the neonatology department took the little girl to another room. The incubator prepared in advance was not used. The little girl was surrounded by the doctors and enjoyed her new arrival in the world. time, while his fathers were still engrossed in the operating room.
But perhaps since the birth of this lucky little baby, she has added a super lucky buff value to her two fathers.
To everyone's surprise, the operation went smoothly. Jiang Xu's internal organs did not have any adhesions, which was exactly the same as that of the patient in Kenn's video.
During the entire operation process, there was basically no change in the preparation of the operation plan in advance, step by step, step by step, and each step was quite sure, which can be said to be a perfect repeat of Kenn's operation.
Because the situation went well and Shen Fangyu's movements were neat enough, the entire operation took even less time than Kenn's.
This is the most unimaginable and least expected situation before the operation.
But it came true.
The heart that had been suspended for a long time finally relaxed a little. While doing the finishing stitches, Shen Fangyu suddenly remembered what he and Jiang Xu had said about the college entrance examination last night.
In the half year approaching the college entrance examination, he was actually under a lot of pressure.
He told himself that he must take the No. 1 Scholar Examination, and he must not be inferior to his brother. For this reason, he spent a lot of time sleeping all night, went through the college entrance examination questions, and did countless more difficult competition questions.
And No. 4 Middle School, as one of the two strongest high schools in City B, even raised the difficulty level in the first, second, and third exams, and the students complained and panicked all day long.
At that time, in order to "encourage students", countless difficult questions were piled up in two hours or two and a half hours, and the whole process had to be written like a hurry. If you were distracted for a second, you might not be able to finish the test paper.
But at the end, when Shen Fangyu sat in the college entrance examination room and scanned the papers, he found that the difficulty of the exam papers under the weight of the rolling stone was quite standard, and all of them were routines that had been practiced thousands of times.
He had thought countless times that what if he didn't get the first prize, if he misread the conditions, if he missed a decimal point, if he encountered a question that he couldn't handle, and if the overall difficulty was too high, he couldn't do the paper at all. over, what should we do?
But in fact, none of those things happened.
Many times in life, it is probably really like the college entrance examination.
Often the most difficult thing is the preparation process, and the most important thing to test is the mentality during the period.
But when the preparation is sufficient and the mentality is stable enough, when it comes to the moment of challenge, it is not as difficult as imagined.
Opportunities are given to those who are prepared.
After making so many preparations, imagining countless thrilling situations, and even thinking about life and death ten thousand times, I finally found that because it was too smooth and simple, those things were useless.
That is luck, and it is also a gift that God gives to brave people who are not afraid of difficulties when they are occasionally happy.
Just like Jiang Xu now, and him back then.
He still remembered the last exam. After double-checking, there were still ten minutes before the end of the exam.
The bored Shen Fangyu glanced out the window, the sun was shining brightly in the green summer.
The bell for handing in the papers rang, and he walked out of the examination room with a transparent stationery bag and the admission ticket, and the sunlight hit his face.
He stood in the corridor and stretched lazily facing the sun, but he didn't notice that just not far from him, a student from No. 6 Middle School was leaning on the corridor like him, bathed in the sunlight, observing carefully. Outside the treetops flicker light, and there are complex shadows.
The buses for No. 6 and No. 4 middle schools to pick up candidates were parked on both sides of the parking lot, one with a banner saying "No. 6 No. 1 and No. 4 No. 1" and the other with the slogan "No. 4 No. 1".
And he passed by his future lover, walked to two buses, and drove to two different schools.
But that's okay.
Because that night, he ran into that sixth middle school student again at the Internet cafe in city B.
And this encounter is a lifetime.
"It's been hard work."
"Doctor Shen is working hard."
"You have worked hard too."
"...and patients," Shen Fangyu couldn't say his name, but he had to record this sentence, "Thanks for your hard work."
The pause button was pressed on the video during the hard work, and the anesthetist said to Shen Fangyu, "Go and rest first, it's been done for three or four hours in a row, I'll just watch it here."
Shen Fangyu shook his head, obediently watched Jiang Xu's anesthesia end, and pushed him into the ICU.
In fact, Jiang Xu's situation is very good, and everyone agrees that there is no need to go in, but just in case, we still plan to stay for one night first, so as to avoid any emergencies in the future.
Jiang Xu was lying on the hospital bed, looking a little tired. After everyone dispersed, Shen Fangyu sat by the bed and held his hand hanging on the water.
"Did you see it," he said, "Smile is very beautiful."
Jiang Xu didn't see her with his naked eyes, but saw the moment when Xiaoxiao appeared and left from his body through the screen Shen Fangyu prepared for him.
He actually wanted to smile a little, but it wasn't very suitable now.
Probably because he noticed the flash of sadness in Jiang Xu's eyes, Shen Fangyu joked, "Your internal organs are also very beautiful."
"Tch," Jiang Xu looked up at the ceiling, "I've never seen you boast so much."
Seeing a little smile in his eyes, Shen Fangyu held his hand and rubbed his face, "When I woke up in the morning, Zhang Cheng sent me a message saying that the house matters had been finalized. We can start looking at the floor plan."
Jiang Xu gave a soft "hmm".
On the first day of April, the singing of birds is crisp and melodious.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was in full bloom, and the colorful broken gold was spotted on the trees full of spring.
"In two months, the lotus will be in bloom," Shen Fangyu said, "We can take Xiaoxiao to the botanical garden to see the lotus, and in autumn, we can take her to take pictures under the hibiscus tree of A Medical University. Garden... But," he teased, "don't bring a smile when you go to Meiyuan."
Jiang Xu glared at him lightly, and Shen Fangyu raised the corner of his mouth and continued: "When Xiaoxiao turns one year old next spring, we will take him to see the golden rapeseed flowers all over the mountains and plains. I will help you carry the equipment, and you will take pictures of her." , definitely better than those taken in studios."
"...We have to take a lot of photos, and we can post them at home or make them into a photo album"
"We still want to live in a bigger and better house, and live a better and happier life with Xiaoxiao."
There are four seasons in a year, and there are four joys in life.
The beautiful and gorgeous dream is entrusted with infinite lingering, Jiang Xu closed his eyes and asked: "Is this the doctor's order that Dr. Shen gave me?"
"Yes," Shen Fangyu's voice was very gentle, "but the most important sentence is still missing."
"Doctor Jiang," he said, "I love you."
