"She's stupid." Aunt Zhang was not happy when she heard her daughter's idea, but was very angry. "She almost lost her life last night. That's enough. It's enough to compensate your teacher for the hard work he put into training her. Let her go abroad!"
When a group of teachers heard what the student's parents said, they didn't know how to continue.
"Auntie." Whenever Xie Wanying thought of what Second Senior Sister said last night, she always felt the same way and tried to use her own example, saying, "Not everyone in my family supports me studying medicine."
Neither her father nor her grandfather thought that it would be good for her to study medicine. A girl wasted eight years studying medicine. It would be better for her to study at a normal school with subsidies. Besides, the most important thing for a girl is to get married. It doesn't matter whether a girl becomes a doctor or not. A boy's career is important.
"But my mother supported me. She studied medicine herself and knew that this path was difficult. She knew that it was very hard for me to study this. She hesitated, but later she found out that I was very happy to study medicine, and she was happy with me. No matter what, you have to make your children happy. As a mother, she thinks so. I believe my aunt is the same as my mother."
Aunt Zhang said, "Of course I am the same as your mother. It is for her own good. What's wrong with going abroad? Everyone knows that going abroad is good. But not everyone has the conditions to go abroad. Didn't I ask her to give up medicine and go abroad to practice medicine?"
"But Second Senior Sister is unhappy after going abroad. Auntie, do you really have to let her continue to go out?"
"You don't understand. The conditions in foreign laboratories are so good that they can allow her to produce greater results and contribute to all mankind."
"Auntie, maybe you don't know that Second Senior Sister wants to be a pathologist. Pathologists abroad are the same as those in China, they are clinical doctors. Their greatest value lies in clinical practice. Second Senior Sister has studied for so many years with only one goal, which is to save lives in the clinic, not to stay in the laboratory. If she wanted to stay in the laboratory, she wouldn't have to waste all this time."

...
"What's clinical and what's laboratory? Aren't they different?" Aunt Zhang asked anxiously.
"It's different. Clinicians are supposed to go to the clinic and directly serve patients. Researchers in the laboratory stay in the laboratory, even if they occasionally go out to see patients, they are not responsible for treating patients. Both jobs have their own value, and it cannot be said that one is more valuable than the other. When laboratory research produces significant results, everyone is happy. But how can it be possible without clinical medicine to provide personalized treatment for patients? The results of laboratory research cannot be used in clinical practice for some special and unexpected patients. So there is no such thing as a research that can benefit all mankind. There are always deviations."
Aunt Zhang's throat was a little choked up. It was obvious that she didn't understand medicine or what laboratory research was. She was the kind of person who would just listen to whatever anyone said was good.
Seeing the opportunity, Xie Wanying explained in detail to the other party, hoping to help the second senior sister: "The greatest pride of a pathologist is to help patients accurately diagnose the cause of the disease in a timely manner. Do you think that it is enough to diagnose malignant tumors for cancer? For example, for breast cancer patients, if estrogen and progesterone receptor tests can be performed in tumor tissue, it can help clinicians determine whether to take endocrine therapy. For patients, it means another way out. Tumor patients undergo multiple biopsies and compare them before and after treatment to determine which treatment plan is most effective for the patient. Now there are more and more cancer patients, and more rare diseases are being diagnosed, thanks to the contributions of pathologists to each individual patient."
