Chapter 750 Brother and Sister

As soon as the car stopped in the parking lot in front of the administration building, Ding Qiunan came running over from inside.

"My God, why did you bring the child with you?"

As soon as she opened the car door, she saw the child sitting on Li Chu's lap looking in her direction. Upon seeing her, the child immediately giggled.

"Yueyue hasn't come back yet. My sister is cooking, so I just brought her here."

"Come here, my little darling, let Grandma hold you. Oh, my sweet baby, give me a kiss. By the way, Li Chu, it seems a big shot was admitted to the hospital this afternoon. I saw several leaders who were at home went over there."

"Move in? You mean you're hospitalized?"

"Yeah, I saw them all heading towards the special needs building when I came out of the warehouse the other day. Okay, okay, you're getting impatient, let's tell Grandpa to drive faster."

Li Chu then shifted gears, released the handbrake, and drove off. Anyway, no one had notified him, so why bother? It wasn't like everyone who came over needed his medical attention.

"The courtyard in Shichahai is all finished. I'll go take a look tomorrow."

"It's all set? Then your teahouse can open now?"

"What do you mean a teahouse can be opened? It's just a place where you can enjoy the scenery and relax."

Ding Qiunan lifted the child in her arms a little higher so that he could see outside more easily, then turned her head to look at her husband.

"You're practically retired now. Are you sure everything's alright?"

"It's nothing, what could possibly be wrong? Besides, I go to work every morning. What? Is someone gossiping?"

"No, not at all. Even if it were, it wouldn't easily reach my ears now. I'm just worried that it might have some negative impact on you."

"Don't worry, as long as I don't do anything reckless, nothing can easily affect me."

Ding Qiunan stared intently at her man for a long while before slowly nodding.

The reason he's acting this way now is simply because he feels he should keep a low profile for a while.

He does his normal work, it's not like he doesn't do it.

The next morning, not long after I arrived at the clinic, Zhao Zhijun came looking for me.

"Director, Mr. Wu's secretary just called and asked you to take some time to go over there."

Didn't they say what it was about?

"They said the two leaders missed their child."

"Okay, I understand. Call me back later and tell me I'll be there tomorrow."

"There's one more thing, Director. The person who came yesterday was..." Zhao Zhijun whispered in Li Chu's ear.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Zhijun."

"Director, this is all I should do. You're busy, I'll go back to the office building now."

After Zhao Zhijun left, Li Chu stood in the corridor, staring blankly at the patients coming and going, before finally entering the consultation room.

The first patients today were a young couple who looked about the same age as Li Wenxuan and his family, and they even seemed to be relatives, as they looked somewhat alike.

However, when Duan Jianing asked about their relationship, everyone in the room was taken aback.

They were actually husband and wife!

I don't know why, but the girl didn't seem to want to come to the hospital; it was the guy who insisted on coming.

"Doctor, I..." The man looked at Duan Jianing hesitantly, then glanced at Li Wenxuan and Liu Ziqiang sitting at the other two tables.

Clearly, he had many doubts about the three young doctors. In his mind, traditional Chinese medicine doctors should be more sought after as they get older.

Finally, his gaze fell on Li Chu, who was sitting in the corner of the consultation room reading a newspaper. Although the doctor looked relatively young, he was at least much more mature.

"Doctor, could I ask that doctor to take a look at us?" he said, pointing to Li Chu.

The same thing has happened many times before, and it's something every young TCM doctor encounters; they've all become accustomed to it.

"Hello comrade, that's my teacher. You can ask me any questions first. If I can't help, my teacher will naturally take over."

The girl next to her tugged at her husband's arm, and when he looked over, she frowned and gestured outside.

"Don't worry, Cuiping. I was just asking, otherwise I'll feel uneasy."

The man explained to his wife, then turned back to Duan Jianing and said, "Doctor, it's like this, I want to ask if my wife and I can have a child given our situation."

"Um, tell me, what's going on?"

"That's right, my wife and I were cousins ​​before we got married."

The consultation room fell silent for a moment, as if even breathing had stopped.

Li Chu put down his newspaper and looked up. He felt that the young couple was a bit strange. Even if a couple looked alike, they shouldn't look so similar.

If they are relatives, then it makes sense.

but……

Duan Jianing was also taken aback for a moment, but then quickly recovered and asked cautiously, "Comrade, is the cousin you're talking about the kind I'm thinking of? Are you beyond the fifth degree of kinship?"

The man shook his head: "Before we got married, I called her father 'uncle'."

"So you mean your mother-in-law is your mother's sister, her own sister?"

"right"

"Have you two gotten your marriage certificate?"

"We've already received it, we're a legally married couple," the man hurriedly replied.

"No, how did you get a marriage certificate in this situation? Doesn't the government have a public awareness campaign stating that people in your relationship shouldn't get married?"

Duan Jianing looked through his outpatient medical records and found that he was a technician at a chemical plant, which meant that he had at least attended a vocational school. He should be considered an intellectual, so how could he do something so outrageous?

"The factory gave us a letter of introduction, so we went to the neighborhood office to register. Nobody asked us anything. Can't we get married with this kind of relationship?"

"Comrade, you've also gone to school, at least with a vocational high school diploma, right?"

Seeing the man nod, Duan Jianing continued, "Don't you know about the publicity regarding this?"

After saying that, she looked at the girl and asked, "You don't know either?"

At this moment, the girl who hadn't spoken until now finally spoke.

“We know, but the elders say that our relationship is beyond the fifth degree of kinship, so it's okay.”

"What do you mean it's alright? You're blood relatives."

"When did you two get married?" Li Chu, sitting in the back, couldn't help but ask.

“Not even a month,” the boy replied.

"So you actually have doubts, right? Otherwise you wouldn't have come to the hospital to ask if you can have a child."

“I am indeed a little worried,” the man nodded and said.

“Your concerns are valid. I advise you two to get a divorce. If you really don’t want to get a divorce, you absolutely must not have the child. The probability of a child born from your blood relationship having problems is very high.”
