I have to admit that this mansion has a strong retro atmosphere.
“Doctor Han, this time, can I know your relationship with the Teng Mansion?”
She was very curious last time, and this time she comes, she will definitely ask again.
"Guest."
The corners of his lips were slightly raised, with a hint of smile.
The so-called retainers were a symbol of aristocratic status and wealth, which predated the Spring and Autumn Period. Most retainers were people of real talent and knowledge. It was not surprising that a famous and capable doctor like Han Qingrang was a retainer of the Teng Mansion.
"Then you said last time that you came to Xihua for work and a friend arranged for you to stay in Teng Mansion temporarily?" Zhiyun remembered what happened last time.
Han Qingrang remained calm, "Yes, it was after that that I became a retainer of the Teng Mansion."
Regardless of whether he lied or not, his words were flawless and perfect.
Zhiyun had no way to refute.
Han Qingrang cooked dinner himself, and Zhiyun did odd jobs beside him. Originally, Han Qingrang didn't want her to do these things, but Zhiyun insisted on doing them. She was free anyway, and she loved going into the kitchen the most. She thought cooking was a very enjoyable thing.
"Doctor Han, I always thought that your hands were only used for holding scalpels."
Zhiyun said jokingly while washing vegetables in her hands.
"Zhizhi, I'm an orthopedic surgeon. The tools I usually come into contact with are hammers, of varying sizes. For example, a bone saw, unlike a hammer, uses a simpler and more brute-force method, making it perfect for sawing through hand and hip bones. There are also various specialized retractors, all of which have a more brute-force method."
After hearing this, Zhiyun's mouth twitched: "..."
She looked at him and asked curiously, "Why did you choose to study orthopedics?"
After she asked the question, Han Qingrang was obviously startled. Zhiyun thought she had asked about his taboo, but after a moment, he turned around and looked at her, his voice somewhat sad:
"Zhizhi, what you suffered from was bone cancer."
After he finished speaking, Zhiyun was also stunned for a moment.
After she recovered, she forgot that it was bone cancer that took her life.
Bone cancer is a very painful cancer that often presents suddenly in the late stages. Once diagnosed, bone cancer progresses rapidly, with a poor prognosis and a very high mortality rate.
During the treatment, everyone knew that there was no way back and her final outcome would be death. As expected, but also not as expected, her attending physician introduced a doctor, Han Qingrang.
He used his miraculous medical skills to treat her bone cancer for two years.
But two years later, she still couldn't make it and died.
She asked him tentatively, "You won't tell me that you chose orthopedics just for me? But when I was diagnosed with bone cancer, you were already a doctor, right? I remember Vill told me that you had five years of experience, and that's when I agreed to let you treat me."
"Zhizhi, nothing is destined. Many times, it's just human nature that makes it happen." He spoke slowly and continued to chop vegetables.
Although Zhiyun didn't quite understand the meaning of his last sentence, she still felt very emotional.
After all, she still couldn't see through him.
Because she never knew whether he really liked her or had other intentions.
The dinner was quite rich, and it was Han Qing who cooked it all.
During the meal, Han Qingrang would carefully remove the fish bones for her. He could notice every subtle change in her expression and use it to judge which dishes she liked or disliked.
Okay, I'll make it for her next time.
