At the sanatorium, Li Chu removed the acupuncture needles from the old commander's body.
"Uncle Wu, try to sit up slowly and move around a bit to see if there's any discomfort."
Nurse Ning was about to come up and help when Li Chu stopped her.
"Let the leader move around a bit; I mainly want to see the effect of the acupuncture."
Commander Wu twisted his back a couple of days ago and has been getting acupuncture for three days straight.
Watching the leader slowly sit up, then stand up and take a few steps, and then slightly twist his waist.
"Xiao Chu, you seem to be doing better. Except for a slight soreness, the pain has subsided."
"Phew..." Hearing Uncle Wu say that, Li Chu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The old leader was a strong-willed man all his life. If he were to be supported by others in the future, his spirit would probably collapse within two days.
If an elderly person loses their vitality and spirit first, then their overall health will decline very quickly.
Just as I was about to say something, the door to the treatment room was pushed open with a loud bang.
"Xiao Chu, how is your uncle?" An elderly woman with gray hair, but neatly combed, walked in.
"Auntie, you're off work. My uncle can move around slowly on his own now, but just to be on the safe side, it would be better if he had acupuncture for another two days."
The old lady breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the old man standing there, slowly twisting his waist.
The old man looked up at the old lady who had just come in and said with a smile, "It's alright, don't worry. Just go about your business. With Xiao Chu here, aren't you worried? Go ahead and do your thing."
Li Chu then realized that the old lady hadn't finished get off work, but was going on another business trip to the grassroots level. Before leaving, she was worried about her husband at home, so she came back to check on him.
Sigh, this auntie is such a workaholic, I don't even know how many days a year she gets to stay at home.
Fortunately, after his treatment, my aunt's health is currently quite good, and she can continue running for another two years.
After seeing his aunt off, Uncle Wu started to chase everyone away.
"Xiao Chu, go do what you need to do. What are you doing here? Just come back tomorrow to give me acupuncture."
These past two days, he hasn't been able to leave someone's side 24/7. Originally, Li Chu planned to stay here for a few days, but Uncle Wu wouldn't let him stay at all.
Every time, they would send him away after the acupuncture. The night before he injured his back, Li Chu didn't dare to go back. Since they wouldn't let him stay here, he stayed at the guesthouse of the sanatorium in front of the sanatorium for one night, just in case something unexpected happened that night.
As these older people get older, the traditional Chinese medicine doctors in their health care team are extremely busy every day.
Lin Sanshou was so exhausted that day that he rested at home for a few days before returning to work. However, this time he was only allowed to oversee the central command and dispatch.
Seeing that Uncle Wu kept urging him to leave, Li Chu was about to leave the treatment room when he was called back again.
"Xiao Chu, I said I was going to ask you a few days ago but I got busy and forgot. I heard that your daughter is dating Old Chen's grandson and they're even getting engaged?"
“Ah, when I went to visit Mr. Shen during the Spring Festival this year, he took a liking to Wenhui from our family and wanted her to be his granddaughter-in-law. I agreed to let the two of them get to know each other first, but I didn’t expect that they would actually hit it off.”
"Where does that grandson of Old Chen work now?"
"He's currently on a temporary assignment in a county under Liaoning Province."
Uncle Wu nodded upon hearing this, then shook his head: "Heh, Old Wang and Old Chen are getting married. I wonder how many people will be unable to sleep now."
Li Chu had no way to respond to these words, nor could he. He simply pretended not to hear them.
Fortunately, the old man didn't intend for him to respond; he had only said that because he felt it was a spontaneous remark.
Although Li Chu is Li Chu and Uncle Wang is Uncle Wang, the two are not related by blood.
But anyone with eyes can see that Old Wang's relationship with Li Chu is more than just that of father and son.
Li Chu marrying off his daughter was no different from Uncle Wang marrying off his granddaughter.
Not to mention his granddaughter from the Wang family, who is actually the daughter-in-law of the Li family.
This strange marriage arrangement has given those with ulterior motives a real headache.
When are you getting engaged?
"If we don't have any plans for October 1st, we can just have a meal together in the small canteen in the military compound."
"Old Wang will definitely be going too, right?"
"Of course I have to go."
Uncle Wu nodded: "Alright then, I'll have someone send a small gift to the child later."
"Uncle Wu, this is inappropriate." Li Chu was a little flustered. He was already flamboyant enough. If this old man sent another gift, it would put him in a very difficult position.
"It's for the child, not for you, so what's wrong with it? Wenhui still calls me grandpa, after all. When Wenxuan got engaged, you kept it all quiet, so you can't miss out this time."
When Wenxuan and Yueyue got engaged, it was during that era, and they dared not let others know. Only their own family sat down together for a meal, and that was how the matter was settled. Outsiders had no idea.
The truth only became known to others when the two children started calling each other's parents "Dad" and "Mom."

"Xiao Chu, when you see Lao Chen later, please pass on a message for me: his grandson is still young, so we need to be more cautious, even more cautious."
"I understand, Uncle Wu."
At this moment, the old man, who had been looking out the window, slowly turned around, looked at Li Chu, and asked, "What about you, Xiao Chu? Are you planning to stay in this health care profession forever? Have you ever thought about changing your work environment?"
"Uncle Wu, I'm fine as I am now. I don't have any other thoughts. I can't do anything else. If you really made me sit in an office every day, I'd probably go crazy."
The old man stared intently at Li Chu for a long time, as if trying to see right through him.
"Hehe, you are good at not competing or fighting, and you just do your job. But the tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not stop. Just because you don't want to compete doesn't mean that others think the same way."
Li Chu, who had been tense under the old man's gaze, finally relaxed completely upon hearing his words.
However, upon hearing the end, he looked at the old man with some doubt. Could it be a lingering effect of his intimate conversation with Dean Shan that time?
"Why are you looking at me? Some people have already heard my voice. They think it's a bit unreasonable that you occupy the position of vice president of the main hospital but don't do any work for the main hospital!"
Furthermore, with your family's marriage alliance with Old Chen imminent, there are many people worried about your family becoming too powerful and difficult to control, so they want you to take charge.
That's right, some people are already scared, afraid that Li Chu will usurp their place.
To be honest, at this moment Li Chu really regretted it a little, regretting that he had agreed to let Wen Hui contact Shen Yi.
With Uncle Wang's wisdom, it's impossible that he couldn't see the trouble that was about to happen. But why has he remained silent all this time?
