"I understand, doctor. Thank you. My husband and I will definitely spend more time communicating and interacting with our child when we get home."
The young father immediately assured him.
Li Chu nodded and said, "You have no experience in raising children and no one to help you. You should communicate more with the older generation and learn from their experience. If you continue like this, you will ruin even the best children."
He didn't know what to say to these young parents.
Some people always think they are right, like these two. They are both educated, maybe even college students, but look at the state of their child. They would have been better off sending him to daycare. The nannies there would never have raised a child like this, and he would have had other children his age to play with.
However, Li Chu could only offer suggestions; what the couple would do next was up to them.
Hopefully, they will be able to fulfill their responsibilities as parents in the future.
"Director, will that child be able to recover?"
After the couple left with their child, Nurse Zhou asked with a look of pity.
Li Chu stood up, took off his white coat, and hung it on a hook on the wall.
"It's hard to say. It depends on whether they have the patience. It's not something that can be seen in a day or two."
It will take at least six months to see any results. The young couple are both educated, so I hope they can persevere.
"Xiao Zhou, you can't do that when you have kids!"
"What are you saying, Director? I don't even have a boyfriend."
Li Chu's words made Nurse Zhou blush.
"Wait a minute, didn't the head nurse of the internal medicine department introduce you to a doctor from their department?"
"Director, I just realized that you're just like those old ladies on the street." Nurse Zhou stamped her foot shyly.
"Dating is a natural thing, what's there to be ashamed of? How about I talk to the nursing department and get you transferred to the internal medicine department too? That way you two can spend more time together and develop your relationship."
"Are you a devil?" Nurse Xiao Zhou looked at Li Chu with a face full of horror. It was so comfortable staying in the TCM department. Why did she have to come to the internal medicine department? Not only did she have to hand over shifts every day and couldn't leave on time, but she also had to work the night shift.
"Director, I'm not going to the internal medicine department. I need to make the most of my time to study."
Like many of her predecessors, Nurse Zhou also wants to change careers. After all, being a nurse is not as easy as being a doctor.
She has plenty of free time in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department, so she can read and study. If she were to go to the internal medicine department, she would be in trouble and would only be able to study in her spare time.
Besides, following Li Chu is like following a hospital encyclopedia; he can answer any question you may have.
If she wants to switch to medicine, she can only study Western medicine, and the best specialties are obstetrics and gynecology or internal medicine.
At first, she asked Li Chu with a try-it-out attitude, but to her surprise, he was able to explain everything to her clearly no matter what she asked, which made her extremely happy.
It's important to understand that there's a world of difference between having a teacher and learning on your own when it comes to acquiring knowledge.
She's only been here a short time, but her theoretical knowledge has already increased steadily.
She would absolutely not want to leave now.
"What, do you want to take the exam at the end of the year?"
"Yeah, I heard that they're planning to introduce some kind of medical practitioner's license, which means it will be harder and harder to switch jobs in the future."
“You heard right, they’re making preparations. I don’t know if I’ll be able to transfer later, so it’s better to leave sooner rather than later.” Li Chu nodded.
"However, your optics theory isn't enough. It would be best to combine theory with practice. Anyway, you don't have anything to do this afternoon when I'm not here. Let me see which major you want to switch to. I'll talk to their director later, and you can go to that department to study while I'm away."
"Really?" Nurse Zhou's eyes lit up.
"There's no such thing as true or false; it's a good thing to be willing to learn."
"Director, could you please tell Director Liu that I'd like to visit their obstetrics and gynecology department?"
“Sure, I’ll say hello to her when we eat later.” Li Chu said as he walked to the door of the examination room. Just as he was about to open the door, he remembered something, turned around and looked at Nurse Zhou and said, “By the way, I have something to tell you, but don’t go out and talk about it for now.”

"Obstetrics and gynecology may be split into gynecology and obstetrics in the future. Think carefully about which department you want to go to and which direction you can develop in."
Although the matter of splitting up the departments has not yet been approved by the higher authorities, Li Chu is certain that it is a done deal.
Moreover, no matter what, it's much better to specialize in a particular field than to seem to know a little bit about everything; it's also easier to gain favor with your superiors.
In the decades to come, the various specialties in hospitals will become even more clearly defined.
"Yes, Director. Thank you."
Li Chu smiled, waved, opened the door, and went out. He was always generous in offering guidance to those who loved learning.
After he left, Nurse Zhou almost jumped three feet high, laughing silently with her mouth agape.
She is now extremely grateful that the nursing department sent her here, as she has plenty of free time and is able to learn new things.
When she was first assigned here, her roommates advised her to ask the nursing department leaders for a transfer, saying that she wouldn't learn anything here and would just waste her time.
Now, if anyone tries to transfer her away, she gets furious.
In which department can you find a teacher who is both versatile and willing to teach you?
However, she also kept Li Chu's words in mind, knowing what she could and could not say after they went out.
Even with her close friends in the dorm, she wouldn't go back and say anything inappropriate.
She's no longer a student and is no longer as naive as before. That dormitory was like a small world, where she learned a lot about human relationships and social dynamics.
She sat there blankly in the chair for a while, giggling to herself, until the announcement outside came on, at which point she took off her white coat and headed to the cafeteria.
"dad"
"Huh? You sent Lu Ping and her parents over there?"
Just as Li Chu was passing by the large cafeteria and heading towards the small cafeteria, Wen Hui, who was coming over for lunch, stopped him.
"I sent her to the family compound and told them to clean up the place themselves. There's everything in the house anyway. I also left her some food coupons. The national food coupons her parents brought over definitely won't last more than a few days."
"By the way, Dad, Lu Ping asked me to ask you what the current status of her father's illness is?"
"It's what I mentioned this morning. I'm not hiding anything. Nobody can say for sure whether it can be cured. With Western medicine helpless, they have no choice but to trust me. It can't get any worse than this."
Li Wenhui frowned and nodded: "Okay then, Dad, you go eat quickly. I'm going in to eat too. I still have an experiment to finish and I have to work overtime later."
"Go ahead, don't overwork yourself."
"Okay, Dad."
