Mr. Dong suffered the most losses and felt the most aggrieved in the demolition dispute.
Because he was a step too late after hearing that Chen Rou was unwell, he missed seeing his granddaughter.
Regarding the demolition and renovation, it doesn't really matter who comes first or last, because they will all be demolished eventually anyway.
However, after the employees of Nie's Company arrived, they set up the real estate company's address on Erye's territory, and it was a place personally selected by Erye, right in front of Dongye's bedroom window. Well, one morning when Dongye woke up, he saw someone banging and clanging as they erected the large bronze characters "[Nie's Group]", but it just so happened to be on Erye's territory.
One advantage is that their area is full of landlords and landladies, who are also the people who most eagerly await demolition and relocation.
Normally, no one would care, but now that Master Er has started talking about demolition, everyone is siding with him, right?
Normally, when Master Dong's men go to collect protection money, everyone pays it readily, but now, many people are unwilling to pay.
The gangs aren't afraid of ordinary citizens; they might get beaten up, but that would damage their reputation.
Gradually, when Master Dong walked out onto the street, some residents in his jurisdiction stopped greeting him. Is this acceptable?
He was so angry that he kept pacing around in the yard, stomping his feet and pounding his fists: "I'm so angry, I'm so angry, I might as well die of anger!"
He wasn't trying to confirm their kinship, but rather to gain the upper hand and settle the score as soon as possible. So, like Master Er, he started thinking about whether he could steal a strand of Chen Rou's hair or her toothbrush.
However, Chen Rou was very careful and wouldn't give the two old men any opportunity.
Before we knew it, Li Xia had been here for over two months, and it was almost May. Her grades surprised even herself. Although her English was very poor, she managed to get two A's and three B's, ranking 12th in her class. However, she had a problem: since her miscarriage, her menstrual flow had been intermittent and unstoppable.
She was still young. Although she loved her husband deeply, she calculated that the two of them had spent no more than two months together since they got married. She was also afraid that if she continued to miscarry for a long time, she would be drained and unable to have children for her husband in the future.
And just then, Secretary Gao specially brought Chen Ke's recent allowance to her.
Li Xia mustered up her courage and called on Chen Rou, preparing to go to a major hospital in Hong Kong to have a doctor examine her.
At present, the level of major hospitals in Hong Kong is much better than that in mainland China, and the equipment is much more advanced. Chen Rou took Li Xia to Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital and had her undergo a comprehensive examination at the outpatient clinic, where she obtained all the necessary prescriptions.
Upon waking up, it turned out there was indeed a problem. According to the gynecologist, Li Xia's entire pelvic cavity was inflamed and she needed to take medication for a long time to reduce the inflammation. So the doctor prescribed a lot of medicine for her.
The gynecologist was, of course, a woman. After prescribing the medicine for Li Xia, the woman smiled and asked, "Mrs. Nie, are your periods regular? Do you usually experience occasional lower back and knee pain, or lower abdominal pain during your period?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xia quickly added, "Arou, let the doctor examine you too."
But Chen Rou smiled and said, "I never eat raw or cold food during my period. If I encounter cold water stimulation, I will immediately boil water with peppercorns and scallions at night to soak my feet to dispel dampness and cold. My gynecological health is impeccable."
A woman can become a top-notch special forces soldier or police officer not because of brute force, because men are naturally stronger than women. Protecting one's own body is the first priority. So even if Chen Rou occasionally indulges, she only drinks a can of iced cola, and it is never during her menstrual period. Only by being strict with herself can she maintain good health.
Therefore, she is always energetic, has a rosy complexion, and is the kind of healthy woman with very regular menstruation.
But after thinking for a moment, the female doctor said, "Unlike men, women's bodies don't start to decline after the age of 25. Why don't you order some tests and I'll prescribe some supplements to keep your body young?"
In Chen Rou's view, as long as women don't deliberately suffer by having children year after year and dedicate their body's nutrients to their children, they are far superior to men in terms of physical strength and aging.
In her previous life, when she was 38 years old, her physical training and care were second to none among men.
On the contrary, her male comrades and male colleagues, once they turned 30, either developed erectile dysfunction or became listless.
But what this female doctor said was the social consensus. Li Xia herself didn't have much money, but she still timidly said, "How about I prescribe some supplements for you? You should really take some."
Chen Rou paused for a moment, then asked the female doctor, "Doctor, where do you live?"
The female doctor scratched her head somewhat awkwardly and said vaguely, "I'm a local from Hong Kong."
Chen Rou stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "You must be from Kowloon, right? It's not easy for girls from Kowloon to be able to study and still be practicing medicine. Don't jeopardize your career for an old man who's about to die. You don't know how many women envy your job more than if you married a rich man."
The female doctor was taken aback and immediately stood up: "Mrs. Nie, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that."
“Go back and tell Master Dong that if this happens again, I will never see him again!” Chen Rou said.
The female doctor said again, "I'm sorry, it was my own idea, it has nothing to do with Mr. Dong."
Master Er has given up on his plans. It was Master Dong who was causing trouble, because he has been getting thwarted recently. It was a coincidence that the female doctor met Chen Rou, but she must be from Master Dong's jurisdiction and has received favors from him.
However, although Chen Rou, as a member of the Nie family, also had a physical examination, her medical records were classified as confidential and accessible only to the highest levels of the medical community at the nursing home. Therefore, the female doctor could not even find out her blood type.
But this just so happened, she wanted a vial of Chen Rou's blood.
