Sitting in the car, Li Chu didn't think much about it. In his eyes, it was just a doctor treating a patient, nothing more.
If I had gone to the hospital, he wouldn't have even prescribed any medicine; he would have just given me two injections, and I'd be out of bed by tonight.
However, that girl was a bit too shy.
He shook his head, trying to stop thinking about what had just happened. He closed his eyes and began to ponder the material about traditional Chinese medicine that he had written.
Meanwhile, Xiao Zheng, who had been searching for his savior, was walking out of the hospital.
At the main gate, Director Zhang could tell from Xiao Zheng's appearance that this attempt had failed again.
Around noon, after they finished eating, the two of them came over.
They didn't go into the hospital that time; they just asked the sentry outside and left when they learned that the person wasn't there. They thought the person was going home for lunch.
They were taking the evening train back to Dongshan, and since they were about to leave, Director Zhang accompanied Xiao Zheng one more time.
This time, Xiao Zheng didn't ask the sentry at the door, but went straight in.
After finding the administration building, the sentry downstairs told me that the person was still not there, and he didn't know when he would return or where he had gone.
Even if the sentry knew, he wouldn't tell him.
"Xiao Zheng, still haven't seen him?"
"No, there are sentries downstairs in the administration building, so it's impossible to get up there. I asked one, and the sentry told me that Vice President Li wasn't there, and he didn't know anything else."
"Of course not. How could he tell just anyone where the leader is? Forget it, Xiao Zheng. It looks like we won't be seeing him today. Go back and tell your mother, your older brother, and your older sister to come back another time. He can't be gone every day, can he?"
And believe it or not, if you're unlucky, you might not see anyone even after running around for a week.
Xiao Zheng could only nod helplessly. He still had some doubts in his heart, so he wanted to find someone to confirm before telling his family. Now it seemed that he could only tell them when he got back.
Looking back at the main hospital gate, Xiao Zheng composed himself and followed Director Zhang to their guesthouse. After packing his things, they would head to the train station.
Just as Xiao Zheng and his group crossed the road, Xiao Tian drove straight into the hospital.
Downstairs at the administration building, Li Chu opened the car door and got out.
The sentry at the door saluted him and said, "Vice Dean Li, someone came looking for you just now."
"Looking for me? Where are you?"
"He had only been gone a short while, but judging from his accent, he didn't sound like someone from the capital. He sounded like he was from the Dongshan area."
From Dongshan? Li Chu frowned and thought for a moment. He didn't seem to know anyone from Dongshan.
No, I know them too. Zhang Meng's family is from that area.
The person who came to see him could not possibly be Zhang Meng or his son.
"The person who came to see me, is he or she, and how old are they?"
"It was a man, who looked to be in his early thirties."
Li Chu stood downstairs for a long time, but still couldn't figure out who had come to see him.
Without asking the sentry any further questions, Li Chu walked into the administration building.
In the office, he hadn't been writing for very long when he heard the workday bell ring outside.
Love reading
I tidied up the written materials and stuffed them into my bag.
As soon as Ding Qiunan got into the car in front of the outpatient building, she said, "Li Chu, Lou Xiao'e is coming this afternoon."
"She must have come here for something."
"It's nothing much, they just told me that He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu have set a date."
Huh?
It was decided so quickly.
He thought Qin Huairu would only agree after menopause, but looking at it this way, it's not so bad after all.
When did they decide to get their marriage certificate?
September 1st.
"Wow, it's almost here! Didn't they say they'd treat us?"
"It seems they're planning to set up two tables in the courtyard. Are you still planning to go?"
"If Zhu Zi notifies us, we will definitely go. If he doesn't, then forget it."
Yes, for weddings, the host family must be notified, but for funerals, no one else can be notified except relatives.
Just like when Mr. Liang passed away, their family members were not allowed to proactively notify their friends.
If a friend finds out from elsewhere and goes to visit, then it doesn't matter.
Back home, the couple were just figuring out where to get a meal when Li Qin pushed open the small door and came in.
"Come eat at my place."
"Sister, is something wrong?" Li Chu noticed that his sister Li Qin's face showed both a hint of disappointment and a sense of relief.
Li Qin touched her face and asked with a smile, "Is it that obvious? You can tell?"
When her husband asked that question, Ding Qiunan took a closer look. She walked over to Li Qin and took her arm, saying, "Sister, it's quite obvious."
"Sigh, the government office issued a document today, and I'm on this list of people being retired to the second line."
Retiring to the second line?
Li Chu and Ding Qiunan were both stunned. Yes, if you do the math, your sister is already at the age to retire. She's fifty-five.
"Wait a minute, sis, shouldn't you be retired?"
Li Qin had been working in the women's team in Nanniwan and had joined the organization long ago. If her parents hadn't been with a different unit at the time, she might have had to cross snow-capped mountains and grasslands.
Of course, if that were the case, Li Chu probably wouldn't exist.
"That's right, I enjoy the benefits of a retired cadre. Let's go over and chat, the food is ready."
Several dogs stood in the middle of the yard, watching their owners leave with longing eyes. Maoqiu barked angrily, and the other dogs barked twice in response.
What kind of people are these? You're too lazy to cook, what are we supposed to do? We dogs have been starving all day, okay? You have no respect for dogs at all.
Li Chu, who had already reached this side of the yard, heard the dogs barking. He slapped his forehead and thought, "Never mind, I'll worry about them after I've eaten."
When Wang Ziwen saw her younger brother and sister-in-law coming over, she invited them to sit down and eat.
"Why are there only a few of us? Where's Jiayuan? Where are Jiadong and his wife?" Ding Qiunan looked around and realized that there were only a few of them.
"Grandma, Mom and Dad are working overtime today, and Aunt hasn't come back yet."
Before the adults could speak, Xiaoyu, who was sitting properly on the stool, blurted out.
"Wow, Xiaoyu is so amazing, he knows everything!"
Ding Qiunan smiled and pinched Xiaoyu's chubby cheek.
Xiaoyu turned his face away in disgust: "Grandma, don't pinch my face, it doesn't look good."
"I'm going to pinch you, I'm going to pinch you anyway!" Ding Qiunan deliberately went against him, spinning around trying to pinch his face.
Startled, Xiaoyu jumped off the stool and threw himself into Li Qin's arms, crying, "Grandma, help! My great-aunt is bullying me!"
Seeing that Ding Qiunan didn't pinch him anymore, he turned around and said, "Grandma, you adults are bullying children, aren't you ashamed!"
