"Big brother, please help me think of a solution. You know Xiaoqiang doesn't like studying, we can't just watch him drift along like this."
Mu Jiefang said, unwilling to give up.
“Jiefang, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but I’m not really that close to Dean Li. You can tell from our ages.”
Mu Hongjun wouldn't help with this matter even if he could. His nephew didn't learn anything good, but he's very good at eating, drinking, and having fun.
If they were to actually become Li Chu's disciples, it would be a disgrace to the Mu family.
“If you really want your son to become Dean Li’s apprentice, you can talk to Dad. With Dad’s influence, this will definitely be done.”
Upon hearing his elder brother mention their father, Mu Jiefang unconsciously shrank back. He dared not say that; he would be asking for trouble.
His father had long disliked his son, and even the son, as the father, was implicated.
If it weren't for the old man being hospitalized, he wouldn't dare to hang around in front of his father so easily.
Even so, he didn't dare let his son come over, for fear that if the old man saw his son, his illness would get even worse and that would be troublesome.
Mu Jiefang glanced at his older brother, who had already entered the ward, and curled his lip in dissatisfaction.
But he knew very well that he didn't have that kind of influence; most likely, he wouldn't even be able to get into the administration building.
In their family, not many men are old; only the eldest brother and sister-in-law can talk to people.
"What a pity," Mu Jiefang thought to himself, "if only his mother were still alive."
Mr. Mu's second wife also passed away from cancer two years ago.
Sigh, Mu Jiefang raised the cigarette between his right and left, took a deep drag, threw the cigarette butt into the spittoon next to him, and walked toward the ward.
Just as I reached the door of the ward, two people came out in front of me.
"Xiaofang, Zhongguo, what are you two doing?"
"Second Uncle, we're fine, we're just getting some fresh air at the door."
"Okay, don't go too far, we'll be switching food soon."
"Uncle, please go in first."
After Mu Jiefang went inside, the couple moved to the side a bit, and then Mu Hongying asked in a low voice, "Zhong Guo, do you know Dean Li?"
Chen Zhongguo was somewhat surprised by his wife's keen observation. He nodded, then shook his head.
"What do you mean by nodding and shaking your head like that?"
"I've met Dean Li at home, but Dean Li definitely doesn't recognize me."
"You..." Mu Fang stopped after saying only two words.
"You said you saw Dean Li at home?"
"OK"
"Does Dad know Dean Li?"
"You think too highly of him. He's a grandfather, and besides, he doesn't know Dean Li personally, he knows Dean Li's brother-in-law and sister."
Before my grandfather retired, he served as a supervisor to Dean Li's sister and brother-in-law.
At this point, Chen Zhongguo looked his wife up and down.
"Fangfang, why are you asking this out of the blue?"
Mu Fang glanced back at the direction of the ward before saying, "I'd like to ask Dean Li to help me get some treatment."
Chen Zhongguo's eyes suddenly widened!
"Fangfang, do you mean that Dean Li can also treat infertility?"
"Yes, I heard it from someone else. Didn't I tell you before that there was a doctor who was really good at treating this, but he's no longer seeing patients?"
"You were referring to Dean Li back then?"
"Um"
"Oops!" Chen Zhongguo slapped his leg in annoyance.
“You didn’t say who it was before, so I didn’t think of it. If I had known it was Dean Li, I would have brought you here sooner.”
"Didn't you say that Dean Li didn't recognize you?"
"I don't know him! But my third uncle seems to have a pretty good relationship with Dean Li."
"Third Uncle?" Mu Fang's mind was a little confused. How did things get so far about her third uncle?
"Yes, Dean Li treated my third uncle before, and that's when I met him. Since then, it seems that my third uncle has paid New Year's visits to Dean Li every year. Also, when Xiao Dan was little, she was too weak, and it was Dean Li who took care of her."
Chen Zhongguo's words unconsciously brought the image of his third uncle to Mu Fang's mind.
To be honest, she didn't like her husband's third uncle very much. He always looked like someone owed him money, and he had a gloomy face all the time.
However, it's understandable that he works for the disciplinary committee.
"You mean you want Uncle San to help us contact Dean Li?"
"Hmm," Chen Zhongguo glanced down at his watch. Given the old man's situation, it wasn't appropriate for him to just leave.
"Forget it, let's do it tomorrow. After Grandpa is discharged from the hospital and settled in at home, let's go see my third uncle."
Chen Zhongguo was speechless about this old man.
Your strict parenting style is admirable, but what about the children?
Logically speaking, given the family background of my wife, getting Li Chu to treat a patient shouldn't be that easy, but it shouldn't be that they're helpless either.
Unfortunately, the old man strictly forbade his children from using his name to do business outside.
Previously, her second uncle was almost beaten to death when he came home because he once mentioned the old man's name outside.
Now, her second uncle treats the old man like a mouse before a cat.
Of the second generation of the Mu family, only the eldest son has achieved some success in a ministry.
Her second uncle was just a minor section chief in Beijing, and her wife's aunt was just an ordinary middle school teacher.
It's better to do well on your own.
Seeing that her husband was not speaking, Mu Fang assumed he was thinking about getting pregnant, so she took his hand and gently stroked it a few times.
"Don't worry, Zhongguo. I've heard that Dean Li is a very skilled doctor. If we see him, we'll definitely have our own child soon."
She always felt guilty towards her husband.
The couple had no children after getting married. Later, a checkup revealed that the problem was with her. Over the years, they consulted many doctors and took a lot of medicine, but to no avail.
fantuantanshu.
If this were any other man, he would have already given up and might even have divorced and started looking for someone new.
Her husband, however, never had such thoughts. He always told his family that he didn't like children and didn't want them, which caused his parents to scold him quite a bit.
They discovered that taking too much medicine was causing various discomforts, and even actively refused further treatment.
Others might think it's because of her family background.
But as the saying goes, only the person drinking the water knows whether it's hot or cold. Mu Fang knew that her husband was good to her because he loved her.
That's why she wanted to take the initiative to find Li Chu this time, to try again no matter what, and to make sure she could have a child for her man.
Chen Zhongguo knew his wife had misunderstood, so he took her hand in return and said softly, "I really don't care about this. Don't put pressure on yourself. Let's just let things take their course, okay?"
He feared that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Who wouldn't want a child of their own? But he also truly didn't want his wife to suffer any more.
“Let’s go, Jong-kook. Let them go eat first. After we take Grandpa home tomorrow, you take me to find Uncle San.”
