With his current qualifications, he would no longer engage in those snobbish and condescending behaviors.

After leaving the special needs ward, as soon as he stepped out of the arched doorway, he saw an officer from the medical affairs office rushing toward him.

Seeing him from a distance, I called out, "Vice Dean Li, Dean Shan wants you to go to his office."

As they were talking, the officer had already run over.

"Didn't Dean Shan say what it was about?"

"Uh... First of all, congratulations to you, Vice Dean Li. Congratulations on being elected as a member of the Academic Committee."

"Thank you! How did you know about Xiao Zheng?"

"The document has been issued, and Dean Shan is looking for you about this matter."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

In the dean's office, Dean Shan sat behind his desk, repeatedly looking at the notice.

Eleven new committee members were elected this time, with Li Chu listed first.

Name, age, employer, position, and major achievements.

In terms of age, Li Chu is the youngest among them.

It's impossible not to feel envious, but he knows for sure that he can never dream of such an honor in his lifetime.

However, Dean Shan's tenure wasn't without its benefits; during his tenure, a student representative emerged from the hospital, which was a good thing no matter how you looked at it.

I have to write my year-end performance review report.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

"Dean Shan, you wanted to see me?"

"Oh, Comrade Li Chu, please have a seat! Congratulations! You've really brought honor to our hospital this time. On behalf of the hospital, I want to thank you!"

Dean Shan came out from behind his desk and shook hands with Li Chu warmly.

"Dean, I am also a part of our hospital, and it is my duty to bring honor to the hospital."

Li Chu's words made Dean Shan even happier.

He handed over the notice: "Go to the Academy of Sciences at nine o'clock tomorrow morning to pick up your certificate."

Li Chu took a look at it. Although he already knew about it beforehand, he was still very excited when he saw the notification.

"From now on, my buddy can also receive special allowances!" he thought to himself.

In my previous life, I often heard news reports about people saying things like that, and to be honest, it would be a lie to say I wasn't envious.

He never expected that he would still be able to make it this far in his second life.

At the same time, he secretly thanked a large number of people in his heart.

The first thing to thank is the system, which is invisible and intangible. Otherwise, Li Chu would want to hug it and kiss it a few times to express his gratitude.

As for those ranked second, there are many more people to thank.

Parents, I am grateful to them for giving me such a strong background, which shielded me from many cold shots and arrows.

Master, thank you for your careful guidance.

To my older sister and brother-in-law, thank you for taking care of me. As the saying goes, an elder sister is like a mother, and this older sister is truly wonderful to me.

Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang are more like parents than parents themselves.

I would like to thank the leaders from Peking Union Medical College Hospital, the current senior leaders of the hospital, and my mentor, Uncle Lin, for their care and support in my work.

Most importantly, I have to thank my wife for being there for me.

After sitting in the dean's office and exchanging pleasantries with Dean Shan, I took my leave.

Li Chu let out a long sigh of relief. It was almost time to get off work in the afternoon, and the fourth case study, which had taken more than a year to complete, was finally finished.

He picked up the phone and dialed the duty room of the health care team.

Uncle Lin has been on duty there these past few days. He instructed me to let him take a look as soon as I finished writing the document.

After discussing it with Uncle Lin, he went downstairs to arrange for the drivers in the car fleet to deliver the items.

After getting off work and returning home, the children, who were staying at Uncle Wang's place, didn't want to come back. It was just the two of them, and they were too lazy to cook, so they went to their mother-in-law's place to freeload.

These two are living a very comfortable life now. They can have a meal at the sister's house today and then go to the mother-in-law's house tomorrow.

Ding Jianguo and his wife Chen Na also moved in. His daughter-in-law is eight months pregnant, and Ding's mother is worried about them living alone.

After all, she was carrying the Ding family's eldest grandson, and Ding's parents doted on him. This was only natural, and Li Chu didn't think it was favoritism or anything like that.

In addition, population control has already begun, although it has not yet been written into law, but Ding Jianguo and Chen Na are both public officials and must strictly abide by it.

After 1982, things will be even more stringent.

In particular, many outrageous slogans emerged during that time, which you might not see in cities, but were everywhere in rural areas.

In his previous life, Li Chu had the good fortune to witness it. To be honest, his mouth was agape wide enough to fit an adult's fist.

Therefore, Li Chu fully understands why the elderly couple values ​​the child in Chen Na's belly.

At first, Ding Qiunan was worried that her husband would overthink things, but later she found that he didn't take it seriously at all.

After finishing their meal there, they chatted with the elderly couple for a while before heading back to their own home.

As soon as I came out from here, I saw Xu Damao holding a child in his arms, standing at his door with Lou Xiao'e, talking to each other.

"Da Mao, I'm here."

"Brother Chu, sister-in-law, didn't you eat at your own home?"

"It's just the two of us, we're too lazy to cook, so we've been eating out for the past two days."

As he spoke, Li Chu opened the door.

Ding Qiunan had already taken the child from Xu Damao and was chatting with Lou Xiao'e about the child.

"Why did you come here today?"

"There's something I'd like to ask Brother Chu for advice on."

Ding Qiunan went inside and poured a cup of tea for each of the two men. Then she took Lou Xiao'e and the child and ran to the backyard to play.

Li Chu and Xu Damao sat on the stone bench in the courtyard and poured him a cup of water from the thermos.

"What is it? What do you want to ask? Go ahead."

"Here's the thing, Brother Chu. My father-in-law saw at last year's meeting that they started encouraging the relaxation of policies, so he's thinking about doing something himself. The old man really can't stay idle at home, but he's not quite sure about the policies, so he asked me to come and ask you to see if it's possible."

Upon hearing this, Li Chu smiled, wondering what was going on.

After being idle for more than ten years, Lou's father immediately wanted to get back to work as soon as he saw some flexibility in the situation.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "It's best not to do it. Although it has been made clear at the meeting, the policy has not yet been implemented and it may fluctuate."

Xu Damao's disappointment was evident when he heard his father-in-law's words; in truth, he also hoped that his father-in-law could go into business.

"Brother Chu, so it just can't be done."

"It's not that it can't be done, but we need to be careful about the method," Li Chu said after a moment's hesitation.

"What method, Brother Chu?"
