Chapter 252: Quickly Breaking Out of the Circle (Page 1/2)
Chen Baomei thought for a moment and said:
"You know my classmate Lao Xu from the senior class? He felt unwell a while ago and went to the hospital for a checkup. It turned out to be in the late stage of cancer. It scared everyone in our senior class. Many of them rushed to the hospital for a checkup."
"When my cold is over, I'll go to the hospital for a full-body checkup. Do your parents want to go as well? We have company, so we can go together."
Chen Baomei herself hasn't had a physical examination for nearly a year.
It was still more than half a year since she was diagnosed with stomach cancer in her previous life, so it would be a good idea to have another physical examination.
Shen Rui said unconcernedly, "My father-in-law and mother-in-law are very stubborn. Asking them to go to the hospital for no reason is more painful than cutting their flesh. It's not like the company hasn't organized physical examinations before. When we asked them to go along, they refused to go."
Speaking of this, Guo Xiaoxiao also looked worried.
"That's right, my parents are just like that. They won't go to the hospital for even the smallest illness until the pain becomes unbearable."
Chen Baomei: "That won't work. Many illnesses are delayed. A physical examination is all about peace of mind. Good health is best. If a problem is found during the examination, it can be treated sooner and with less suffering."
"My classmates at the senior university went for checkups, and many of them were found to have a variety of problems, big and small."
After Chen Baomei said this, Guo Xiaoxiao took this matter to heart.
"I'll persuade my parents to take them to the hospital when I have time."
"I have a contracted family doctor, so it's very convenient for me to schedule physical examinations. Why don't you schedule one with me? Just say it's a free physical examination when you buy health supplements. It would be a waste if you don't go. Then your parents won't have anything to say."
Old people love free things, just like they love free eggs.
Guo Xiaoxiao's company organized a physical examination, and the money for the examination was paid by themselves, so it was normal for Guo's father and mother to refuse.
Guo Xiaoxiao was very happy, "Why didn't I think of this idea!"
Her parents are indeed a bit greedy. If they were offered a free physical examination, they would go for an 80 to 90 percent chance of it.
"Then I'll trouble you, Mom. I'll ask Shen Rui to drive our family's commercial vehicle to take you to the hospital."
Chen Baomei nodded.
Seeing that Chen Baomei was indeed in good spirits, Shen Rui and his wife did not persuade her to go to the hospital anymore.
Shen Rui and his family of three wanted to accompany Chen Baomei to finish dinner before going back, but Chen Baomei refused because she had a slight cough.
Shen Rui and Guo Xiaoxiao prepared a few dishes for Chen Baomei before taking the children back.
After Chen Baomei made an appointment for a physical examination, she sent the information to Guo Xiaoxiao.
Knowing that it was a free physical examination, Guo's father and mother did not refuse, and the two elders were even very happy.
After the physical examination, Guo's father and mother insisted on treating Chen Baomei to a meal. Chen Baomei could not resist the enthusiastic Guo's father and mother and had to accept it with pleasure.
The physical examination results came out a week later.
Shen Rui went to get the report.
Chen Baomei's physical examination report was normal and there was no major problem.
Because I take good care of myself, I don’t even have stomach problems.
There is trouble with Guo's father and mother.
Mr. Guo had some problems with his lungs, and his mother's was even more serious. A physical examination revealed that she was in the late stage of liver cirrhosis.
Shen Rui and Guo Xiaoxiao were both a little confused when they got the results.
Normally, Guo's father and mother seemed to be in good health, but I didn't expect that both of them had health problems.
Especially Guo's mother, her liver cirrhosis has reached the late stage.
Guo Xiaoxiao was both worried and a little annoyed.
If they have health problems, they must feel a little uncomfortable at ordinary times.
As a result, both of them kept silent and never told her, their daughter.
Chen Baomei could only offer comfort: "With early treatment and intervention, there shouldn't be a big problem."
Many patients with cirrhosis can live a long time if they actively cooperate with treatment.
In Guo's previous life, his mother's illness was discovered very late and had already developed from cirrhosis to liver cancer. Guo's father was also diagnosed with lung cancer after his mother's illness broke out.
Guo Xiaoxiao was frightened for a moment, "Mom, this time it's all thanks to you. If you hadn't reminded me, they wouldn't have known what to check for this disease."
It’s still early to discover it now. If we delay it any further, the situation will only get worse.
With her parents' personalities, it would probably be too late by the time they found out.
Chen Baomei: "As people age, they have more illnesses. You must not be afraid to seek medical treatment. This disease is easy to treat. Take advantage of this time to spend more time with your parents."
Being your own boss means you have more freedom in terms of time.
During this period, Guo Xiaoxiao ran around and personally supervised her parents receiving treatment in the hospital.
Because the disease was discovered early and intervention was taken, Guo's mother's condition is much better than that of her parents.
That day, Shen Rui came to Chen Baomei carrying an extra-large bag.
Chen Baomei was editing a video while wearing reading glasses.
Shen Rui couldn't help but envy her when he saw her serious look.
His mother is still working at her old age, and he is in his prime, but he has accomplished nothing and can only take care of the children at home.
Compared with his biological mother, he felt both ashamed and somewhat envious.
Jiuer is grown up now. Apart from picking up and dropping off the children from school and occasionally helping them with their homework, there are actually not many places where we need him.
Besides, these jobs can be replaced by nannies, drivers and tutors, so he is actually not very useful.
"Mom, do you think it's time for me to return to work?"
Chen Baomei glanced at him and said, "You haven't worked for so many years. Can you adapt?"
She hasn't raised pigs for many years, and if she is asked to go back to raising pigs now, she simply can't adapt.
Chen Baomei feels that her job is similar to her pig farming. If she doesn't do it for too long, many of her skills will degenerate.
Shen Rui was just unsure, so he wanted to find confidence from Chen Baomei.
"I always feel that it's not good to just muddle along like this. I also don't want people to ask Jiuer what her father does in the future. She can only say that her father is an unemployed vagrant and a househusband."
That's so embarrassing.
Chen Baomei skillfully adds sound effects to her videos.
"If you really want to work, go ahead and give it a try. You still have decades to live, so there's no need to be timid. Even if you fail again, Xiaoxiao will support you."
They get along quite harmoniously as a couple. Chen Baomei feels that if Shen Rui really wants to go out to work at this time, Guo Xiaoxiao will definitely not object.
Chen Baomei watched the video several times and made sure there was no problem before uploading it to her account and clicking on the scheduled release.
Seeing this, Shen Rui had an idea, "Mom, what do you say about me making a short video too?"
"Your eldest sister also filmed it, but after a few attempts, there was no follow-up."
Chen Baomei was not trying to pour cold water on him. If he really wanted to make short videos, he had to be mentally prepared for a protracted battle.
"I'm different from my older sister. She had a main job back then. She just did it as a side job, but when it didn't work out, of course she couldn't keep it up."
He doesn't have much else but a lot of time, and he has plenty of energy and time to work hard.
Chen Baomei glanced at Shen Rui up and down, and an idea suddenly came to her mind, "I have an idea that can help you quickly break out of the circle in the short video track."
