"It's all about the two of you. How can we manage without you two?"

Xu Yang turned to look at his wife, who also looked blank, and asked, "What do we need Uncle Li for?"

"Don't you know what's going on? You've been married for three months and still don't have a child. Shouldn't you ask your Uncle Li to take a look?"

Lou Xiao'e said the last sentence in a low voice. Although her daughter-in-law Xiaoqin was sitting next to her, she didn't hear anything and could only look at Xu Yang curiously.

Xu Yang almost jumped up. He never expected that his mother had called him and his wife over for this reason. No wonder she wouldn't tell him before.

The problem is that they are both fine. The reason they don't have children yet is because they have discussed it and decided to wait a year or two before having any. Right now, they are always keeping an umbrella over them.

But he never told his mother about this.

What to do now? Xu Yang didn't know either.

"Come on, Xiao'e, Xiaoqin, Yangyang, you eat first, there will be more later."

At this moment, Ding Qiunan came over with a bunch of meat and gave each of the three of them two skewers. The meat was from her own kitchen, and it was all in large chunks. Even someone as meat-loving as Li Chu would only have enough for ten skewers at most, let alone the women. There were also other vegetables being grilled.

"Aunt Ding, please don't bother. My mom and I have already eaten. We really can't eat this much. Please have a seat."

When Xiaoqin saw that she was about to go and take it, she quickly stopped her.

"Please don't be shy."

"Who's being polite? We really have eaten," Lou Xiao'e waved her hand and said, "We wouldn't dare take any more."

Where is your son, Da Mao?

"There are a few acquaintances eating at the restaurant, and he has to take care of them."

"Your parents can't even move to another place with their youngest child, they're completely overwhelmed."

"Yes, the three of them, the grandmother and her grandson, are having a great time."

...

"Brother Chu, what's going on? I heard you're under investigation?"

Standing next to Li Chu, Wang Bing, who was learning how to grill meat, took a sip of beer and asked.

"It's true what they say, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles. How did you manage to hear about it?"

"I went to the headquarters yesterday to submit an exercise application and overheard a bit of it. Is everything alright?"

"If something were to happen, I could still be standing here grilling meat. Nothing's wrong."

"That's fine. I was thinking of calling yesterday to ask, but Qiqi told me it was better not to say it over the phone and to say it in person."

"It's not that exaggerated. My piece of gold can withstand the test of fire. Here, these few strings are ready too. Take them to your wife."

"Okay!"

"Oh, by the way, where's your son?"

"She went to play with some other kids in the neighborhood."

Wang Bing delivered the meat skewers to his wife, then returned to the stove.

"Brother Chu, I want to ask you something."

"you say."

My son says he wants to study medicine when he grows up. What do you think?

"You mean you want to go to medical school later?"

"yes"

"Is this the child's own idea, or did you two tell the child?"

“It was his own idea; we never thought of it that way.”

At this moment, Wang Bing's wife, Wang Qi, also came over.

Li Chu thought for a moment before saying, "Well, children have their own ideals, and we adults should encourage and support them. However, studying medicine is a special case."

As he said this, he looked up and glanced at Wang Qi and Wang Bing standing opposite him.

"This is a profession that you can learn as long as you live, and you have to take exams as long as you live."

These words surprised Wang Bing and his wife.

Wang Qi asked with some confusion, "Brother Chu, I understand 'learning until you're old,' but what do you mean by 'taking exams until you're old'?"

"The profession of doctor is similar to that of a factory worker; both have skill levels."

Yes, that's right.

"Your son will definitely study Western medicine, right?"

"yes"

"Let's take Western medicine surgery as an example. If your skill level doesn't meet the requirements, you can't even enter the operating room. So you have to keep learning and taking exams."

Currently, the teaching level of medical schools in China is indeed inferior to that abroad, and the gap is quite significant. If your child really wants to study medicine, my advice is to go abroad.

"Go abroad?" Wang Bing and his wife's eyes widened as they exclaimed in unison.

"What do you mean by going abroad? Who's going abroad?"

Their voices were so loud that everyone in the yard looked over. Wang Jun happened to be walking over to get the roasted meat and casually asked.

After eating two skewers of meat, Uncle Wang, who was already resting there, came over upon hearing this.

Alright, now there's no need to hide it anymore.

After thinking about it, Wang Bing decided to tell his father about it.

After listening, Uncle Wang didn't say anything, just nodded and sat back down in his chair, leaving Wang Bing and his wife completely baffled.

"Brother, what does Dad mean by this? Does he agree or disagree?"

“Dad’s idea is that it’s your son’s responsibility, he won’t interfere.” Wang Jun picked up the meat that had already been grilled on the grill and distributed it to the people in the yard.

"Brother Chu..."

"Why are you looking at me? That's what your dad means. You two need to think carefully about your son's future."

Later generations said that if you persuade someone to study medicine, you will be struck by lightning.

I work in a hospital now, and although I'm not quite as entangled as I am twenty years from now, it's clear that I'm taking big strides down that path.

Therefore, no matter how close the relationship is, Li Chu will not give any advice.

Just like Li Wenxuan, if he had wanted to study Western medicine instead of traditional Chinese medicine, Li Wenxuan would definitely have stopped him.

“Go back and you two should discuss this with your child. This is a major life event, so don’t rush into a decision. I remember Hao Hao just started high school.”

"Yes, it's only been less than a month since school started."

"The division between arts and sciences is only in the second year of high school. Think it over carefully. If he really makes up his mind, he must study chemistry, biology and English well. He can ask his two older sisters to help him with his studies."

"Thank you, Brother Chu."

"You're welcome. Here you go. This meat is also cooked. Wang Qi, take it over and divide it among them."

Uncle Li

"Hey, Xiao Yi, how's the grilled meat? Is it still edible?"

"You're amazing! Your baking is a hundred times better than anything you can find outside."

"That's an exaggeration. We can be more confident about the quality of the meat when we grill it at home. Just let us know in advance if you want to eat it next time."

"Understood, Uncle."

Li Chu glanced at his prospective son-in-law and asked with a smile, "Is there something you need? Just say it."

"Hehe," Shen Yi chuckled somewhat shyly. Before he could speak, Li Wenhui, who had followed behind, spoke up first.

"Oh dear, Dad, stop dawdling. His boss wants you to help his mother get medical attention."

“Sure, I can just call Zhijun in advance to schedule a time.”

"Thank you, Uncle."

"You're welcome. Huihui, go ask Yueyue if she still wants it."

"OK"
