Chapter 932: The Paste-Making Method Failed
"Sister-in-law, would you mind coming over? My uncle and aunt are arguing quite fiercely. Please come and mediate." Su Yi's tone sounded a little embarrassed.
"I, I won't go. They won't listen to me, so it's useless for me to go." Asking me to mediate? My first reaction was to refuse. With my mother's strong and logical argument skills, how could I persuade her to understand?
"But..." Su Yi's tone sounded even more difficult. I could even imagine his brows knitted together. "If we keep arguing, I'm afraid the police will be called. A patient's family member wanted to call the police just now."
I suddenly felt overwhelmed. Other parents are always worried about their children.
Why is it the opposite when it comes to me? My parents are so annoying that they make me so worried.
I was struggling with my thoughts when Xiao Shiqiu gently patted my shoulder and said, "Don't worry, our parents are reasonable people. I'll go with you and talk to them properly."
"Oh, yes, they all seem to be very reasonable, but my dad is easily influenced by others. He thinks whoever is weak is right.
My mother has a strong sense of self-esteem. If she fails to convince you, she doesn’t think there’s something wrong with her logic, but with you, so she will persist until she convinces you.”
Xiao Shiqiu winked at me, "Have you forgotten how I asked your mother to send you the household registration booklet?"
I thought about it and realized that maybe only an old fox like Xiao Shiqiu could mediate a fight.
"Okay, let's go and try it," I said to Su Yi, "I'm so sorry for causing you trouble."
Su Yi was a little confused about my apology, "Why do you want to apologize? It's not like you and Brother Qiu are arguing here with me. Don't worry, sister-in-law, if Brother Qiu has an illegitimate child outside, I will definitely not save him!"
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I heard that. Xiao Shiqiu's face turned green. "Let someone who can talk come out to greet us later. You don't come out."
"Why?" Su Yi asked fearlessly.
"I'm afraid I can't help but want to beat you up." Xiao Shiqiu gritted his teeth.
"Brother Qiu, this is where you're wrong. Even if you beat me, I won't save your illegitimate child..." Su Yi still spoke in a righteous tone.
Xiao Shiqiu snatched the phone and hung up. "Don't contact this guy unless necessary. I've never met someone who can't talk so well!"
"Su Yi is actually quite down-to-earth and a good person."
He snorted coldly, "What's the use of being a good person? He deserves to be without a wife!"
Ever since getting the marriage certificate, Xiao Shiqiu has been acting quite arrogant in his group of brothers, and from time to time he would post some photos that I thought were quite childish.
For example, I took a picture of a toothbrush with toothpaste squeezed out two days ago, and specifically stated: My wife squeezed the toothpaste for me.
In fact, it was obviously not me who squeezed the toothpaste that day, but when I brushed my teeth again, I couldn't help but think of the photos he posted, and then I helped him squeeze the toothpaste after brushing my teeth.
Even though it’s just a small thing, it will make him happy for a long time. Similarly, he will help me squeeze the toothpaste if he gets up first.
Gradually, these little things happened one after another, and I found that he was actually teaching me how to care for each other and integrate into each other's lives when two people are together.
This time, the same thing happened again. While we were in the elevator, he sent another message to his group chat: [Accompanying my wife to mediate a quarrel between my parents-in-law and my father-in-law, does anyone have experience with this? Forget it, I forgot you're all single.]
Everyone: [……]
When I arrived at the hospital, the scene in the corridor was even more exaggerated than I had imagined.
Several nurses gathered outside the ICU, and a few others stretched their necks to look at the scene at the nurses' station. There was also a patient in a hospital gown, holding an IV bottle in one hand and struggling to record a video with the other, looking quite determined despite being physically disabled.
Su Yi still ignored Xiao Shiqiu's previous threat and rushed out in two steps, completely different from his usual cold and calm appearance.
"Finally you two are here, hurry up and try to mediate. They've been arguing for quite a while, and my sister-in-law's mother has already given them several rounds of reasoning."
Ming Chenggang was following behind him. She stuck her head out and waved at me. I walked over and grabbed her. "Gangzi, tell me how they started arguing."
Gangzi is really good at telling stories. He pulled me aside and explained the whole story in a very moving and vivid way.
It turned out that Xia Yixuan was admitted to the intensive care unit after the operation, and the subsequent rejection treatment plan was formulated with the participation of my mother, a nephrologist.
But when Ye Qiwen met my mother, she refused to let my mother treat her son and insisted that the hospital find a new expert to come up with a treatment plan. She said that my mother would definitely want her son to die and would not treat the child properly.
My mother was furious at the time, but out of professional ethics in her job, although she was very angry, she still patiently explained to the other party.
My mother said that in her eyes, a patient is just a patient, let alone a child. Even if it was Ye Qiwen lying there, she would do her best to treat her. This is her job!
As soon as my mother said this, Ye Qiwen started crying to my father, saying that my mother cursed her and that which doctor would curse a patient's family like that.
My father was exhausted from waiting outside because the child was still in critical condition. His wife and lover started arguing with each other, and his head was about to split.
Unfortunately, there was no way to smooth things over at this time, and his usual method of muddling things up didn't work.
I don’t know if he was worried that my mother wouldn’t be able to take good care of the child, so he advised my mother to go home first and ask the hospital to find another specialist.
This is like stirring up a hornet's nest.
"In fact, if it weren't for the awkward relationship between your parents and the patient, the hospital would not pay attention to such unreasonable requests. But because of the relationship between the two parties and the fact that you are your parents, it is difficult for Su Yi to handle it, so he can only call you here." Ming Chenggang explained for Su Yi.
There is no need for Ming Chenggang to continue introducing the plot because I can already hear my mother's voice.
"Xia Mingcheng, please explain clearly what you mean by 'worrying about affecting objective judgment'? I have been a doctor for so many years. Who are you to question my professional ethics?" My mother's voice sounded frighteningly calm.
It didn't feel like we were arguing, but I knew that the more it felt like that, the more it showed that my mother was very angry.
"Shuyao, that's not what I meant..." My father was obviously lacking in confidence, and his voice was full of fatigue.
"Then what do you mean? Why don't you explain it clearly? Or does this mistress mean the same thing as you? Are you two of the same mind now?"
My mother's voice suddenly rose a few notes, "You are my husband, and now you are helping outsiders question my professionalism?
What right does a woman who relies on climbing into men's beds to become a mistress have to question me?"
