So much time has passed, I never expected my sister to give me such good news today.
Li Chu looked at the note in his hand, secretly pleased.
He plans to go over and take a look in the next couple of days while his grandson is away, and if he can secure the contract, he'll get it done as soon as possible.
As the 1990s drew closer, he became increasingly worried that Beijing would suddenly introduce regulations restricting dog ownership.
After all, the Asian Games were to be held in 1990, and he wasn't sure if the management regulations were issued before the Asian Games.
The thought of not seeing these dogs at home one day made Li Chu feel suffocated.
Wenhui, Wenxuan, and Yueyue—the three of them grew up with dogs; it's no wonder they'll throw tantrums later on.
And then there's the little stinky baby, who'll probably cry his eyes out then.
The little black cat lying at his feet seemed to sense something. It had been resting its head on his feet, but suddenly it lifted up to look at him, then rubbed its head against his calf before lying down again.
He then looked at the increasingly aged Monkey King and Pigsy, and felt even more uncomfortable.
At that moment, he suddenly realized that living in the city center wasn't so good after all.
Everyone in the neighborhood knows they keep dogs. If the relevant regulations are actually introduced, their house will probably be the first place the officials visit.
Sometimes when a regulation is introduced, it feels strange, or even a bit inhumane.
However, the reason why so many bizarre regulations exist is because they were learned through painful lessons.
Take the dog management regulations as an example. In the past two years, people's lives have just improved, and some people have started to keep dogs.
But those people keep dogs in a completely free-range manner, they don't clean up after them, they let them run around everywhere without any care, and biting incidents happen frequently.
The key point is that when the dog wasn't biting anyone, it belonged to me. But after it bit someone and involved compensation, he immediately denied everything.
For example, that afternoon after lunch, Li Chu, holding the child, went for a walk with Ding Qiunan and the dog.
There was a stray dog that looked like it belonged to someone, and it ran over and started taunting the other dogs.
At first, Xiao Hei and the others ignored it completely, but then the dog got excited and started showing off.
Ding Qiunan lost her temper and immediately loosened the dog leash in her hand.
As if hearing a bugle call, Xiao Hei pounced over in a flash, raising its front paw and slapping the dog so hard it rolled several times on the ground.
The dog yelped twice, then jumped to its feet, tucked its tail between its legs, and ran away.
Xiao Hei didn't chase after it. Instead, it turned around and trotted back to Ding Qiunan's side, picking up the dog leash from the ground with its mouth and handing it to her.
As for Da Sheng and his companions, they didn't move at all from beginning to end. They didn't even consider that stray dog a threat and disdained to gang up on it.
Li Chu hates this kind of owner the most. Since you've decided to keep a dog, then please take good care of it and fulfill your responsibilities as its owner.
Dogs don't know any better, but do people not know any better either?
What if someone else got bitten by your dog today?
If the owner doesn't show up, then the dog will likely be killed.
After sitting on the sofa for a while, Li Chu stood up, walked out of the living room, and went to the kitchen.
He planned to stew a pot of bone broth; they would drink the broth, and the bones would be given to the dogs to gnaw on.
He still prefers to use a piece of coal to cook soup, feeling that the flavor comes from that kind of coal cooking is better than that from a gas stove.
When the aroma wafted from the pot, the dogs couldn't resist lying down any longer.
Their little owner wasn't home today, and they were all so listless just now.
They were now sitting neatly at the kitchen doorway, staring intently into the room, drool dripping from their mouths.
Even so, they wouldn't step into the kitchen.
Li Chu sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, sipping tea and watching them with a smile.
"First year of junior high school"
As soon as he called out, a dog ran up to him.
"Go, bring it to me."
While Li Chu was leisurely enjoying tea, reading, and playing with his dog, Mu Hongjun's youngest daughter was unhappy.
"Dad, can't you even intervene?"
“I’ve told you before that I’m not particularly familiar with him, so this matter might not be able to be accomplished.”
"Dad, you two used to live in Nanniwan, how could you not be familiar with it?"
“I’m about ten years older than him, and I went to the front lines with the army at a very young age.”
Mu Hongjun explained to his daughter with some helplessness.
What can he do? He can't just say that he dated his sister and then dumped her. The fact that she's still dealing with him now is because she's well-mannered.
"Dad, are you really at your wit's end?"
"I really have no other choice."
"Then I'll go to their hospital to find him."
"Hey you..."
"Yaoyao, who are you planning to look for?"
Before Mu Hongjun could finish speaking, the special nurse helped Old Mu down from the second floor.
The old man was about to go to the hospital to find someone when he asked this question.
"Grandpa, I need to find the doctor who treated you." Mu Yao took the old man's other arm.
"The doctor who treated me? You mean Li Chu?" Old Master Mu asked, stunned for a moment after hearing his granddaughter's words.
"Yes, that's him."
Why are you looking for him?
"He cured your illness with traditional Chinese medicine, which is a remarkable achievement. If we could get a few more cases and compile the data, we could write a paper about it and publish it in an international journal. That would be incredible."
Mu Hongjun shook his head slightly; he knew that this was no longer possible.
He had only gone to Li Qin out of desperation because of his daughter's nagging, and now that the old man knew, he would no longer be involved.
Sure enough, the old man frowned after hearing this.
"Alright, just go to your job at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. This isn't something you should worry about."
"grandfather……"
Before Mu Yao could say anything more, the old man raised a hand and waved it, signaling her to stop talking. Then, after sitting down on the sofa, he said, "Do you know who Li Chu is?"
"I know, he's a military doctor, probably from the health care team, otherwise he wouldn't be able to treat you."
"He's more than just a military doctor." The old man shook his head. "Don't even think about publishing papers like that. You're going to go to the hospital to see him? Even your dad might not be able to get a meeting. You're so young, and you really think you're something special. Do you even have the qualifications?"
"From now on, just focus on being a good Western medicine doctor. If you want to publish any papers, go ahead and do the research yourself. Even if you want to publish your findings on the moon, I'll support you."

The old man's words made Mu Hongjun's lips twitch. What did he mean by saying that even if I went there, I might not be able to see them?
