Chapter 340: The Second Spring of Life]
At some point, Tang Weijun came closer, followed by several doctors. He looked at Ye Qingyue and Director Li with a smile, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
Director Li said, "It is a bit tricky, but it is worth a try. If it succeeds, it will be the first case in the country."
"The first case in the country...? Such a title is indeed easy to fascinate people."
Tang Weijun nodded, looking like he understood.
After he finished speaking, Ye Qingyue couldn't help but frown.
It sounded as if she and Director Li wanted to treat Guo Peng for fame and fortune.
Everyone present had different expressions. Director Li's expression was not very good. He looked directly at Tang Weijun and said, "Yes, the first case in the country, whether it is a failure or a success, can leave valuable experience for later generations. Aren't we medical students gaining experience from "first cases" again and again and growing on the shoulders of our predecessors?"
Tang Weijun wanted to use "competing for fame and fortune" to satirize Director Li.
Director Li then turned the tables and raised the level of the matter to a higher level.
Isn't it just wearing a hat? He can do it too!
Tang Weijun paused slightly. He knew that Director Li was a strong competitor for the position of vice president before he came to the First Hospital.
If he hadn't used his connections to interfere, Director Li would definitely have been promoted.
After Tang Weijun entered the First Hospital, he had several disputes with Director Li, both openly and covertly. Each time, they stopped at the right time, and didn't want to make things too ugly.
"It's a good thing that Director Li is enterprising, but..."
Tang Weijun changed the subject and said, "You should know that there is fierce competition among several major hospitals in Beijing now. Everyone is trying their best to compete before the end of the year and get more resource allocation, right? In order to avoid making the data look bad, some hospitals directly refuse to accept troublesome patients to avoid being dragged down..."
He said meaningfully, "However, a capable doctor like you, Director Li, should not do anything that harms the hospital, right?"
Nowadays, domestic resources are in short supply, and high-end medical equipment is purchased from abroad, and many are even bought second-hand.
Even so, supply cannot meet demand.
If you want to get better resources, you must compete with other hospitals.
As the vice president, Tang Weijun directly used the interests of the hospital to put pressure on Director Li.
Director Li's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Of course, I have been in the First Hospital from my internship to today, and I naturally hope that our hospital will get better and better."
"Then I wish Director Li success."
Tang Weijun got the answer he wanted and took people away.
He walked away, Zhong Jun picked up the water cup and took a sip, and said slowly: "You are impulsive."
Director Li said: "I know, but people fight for their dignity."
Tang Weijun deliberately mentioned this matter just to put Director Li on the fire. If Director Li's treatment fails, he will definitely make a big fuss about it.
But Director Li has been a doctor for many years and has his own dignity and position. He doesn't want to give in here, which will also affect his position in the hospital in the future, so he can only go back on the spot.
"It seems that we can only work hard to cure Guo Peng."
Ye Qingyue teased, "Otherwise, will Director Li be able to stand up straight in front of Vice President Tang in the future?" Director
Li coughed, and the look of being provoked still looked a bit wolfish in the eyes of the younger generation.
"Although I am the attending physician in name, most of the treatment plans are contributed by you, Doctor Ye. I will make it clear when I report to the hospital later."
Although Director Li was not convinced by Tang Weijun and had the idea of climbing up, he was not so shameless to take the credit for the child.
He could see that Ye Qingyue had a promising future, so there was no need for him to offend a future big shot because of his greed.
In the afternoon, Ye Qingyue injected Guo Peng with a tranquilizer under the pretext of checking his pulse, so that Guo Peng would not be delayed in his work due to illness during the checkup tomorrow.
Guo Aihua was busy running around, looking a little tired.
Ye Qingyue asked, "Where are your family members?"
From what Guo Aihua said before, the family relationship should be pretty good, so why was Guo Aihua the only one busy here?
"To be honest, my father has been promoted twice in the past few years and has been very busy at work. My mother was also promoted some time ago and has been extremely busy. They are often so busy that they don't even have time to eat. They don't even go home to sleep and just stay up all night in the factory..."
Guo Aihua explained: "This time I brought Peng Peng to Beijing. My parents wanted to quit their jobs and come with me, but I refused."
After all, the two elders have been working for many years and are about to retire. How could they bear to let their only daughter take the child to seek medical treatment in another place alone?
"I know my parents love to work, and they will be able to retire normally in two years. Retiring early will not do them any good."
Guo Aihua persuaded the two elders with the excuse that "the cost of treatment will be very high, and it will be difficult for no one in the family to work." "But you don't have to worry, Doctor Ye. I have been working and taking care of Peng Peng all these years. Now that I have no job, I can take care of Peng Peng wholeheartedly. In fact, it is not that tiring."
Ye Qingyue looked at her haggard eyebrows and sighed in her heart. She didn't say anything else, but nodded and said, "It will get better."
Guo Aihua seemed to have received great comfort. Her eyes were slightly red. "Then I will take advantage of Doctor Ye's good wishes. I... don't have any expectations for my life anymore. I just hope Peng Peng doesn't have to live like me."
"You are still young."
Ye Qingyue said, "My mother is a few years older than you. She raised the three of us by herself. Now we don't need her to worry about us. She has found a relatively leisurely job. Occasionally, she does her favorite handicrafts. When she has a break, she takes those things out to sell. She uses the money she earns to buy things she wants. Now she is very happy."
Guo Aihua was slightly startled and asked cautiously, "Really?"
In today's era, women in their forties seem to have reached the last stage of their lives.
If they can't have a happy family, it's like a failure in life.
Guo Aihua thought so too. Her domestic violence husband died, and the son who protected her went crazy. It seemed that her life had been lived in vain. She had no hope.
Ye Qingyue's words had a great impact on her.
Can a woman who is a few years older than me, in her forties, raising three children alone, live so happily?
"Of course."
Ye Qingyue smiled, "My mother said that she only sells a few handmade items on the street stall. The quality is good. She has some repeat customers or regular customers who refer them to her. The price is customized. The money she makes from her hobby is several times her salary."
"Setting up a stall with her and buying goods from other places at low prices, although you only make a profit from the price difference, the quantity is large and you can make more."
Ye Qingyue said: "The economic and cultural atmosphere of your Hai City is stronger than that of the capital. It used to be called the 'Oriental Paris'. When your son recovers from his illness, you can take him home. If you can't find a suitable formal job, you can also try setting up a stall. Maybe you can find a second spring in life like my mother did?"
