Chapter 92: Don’t you have a cleanliness fetish?
Outside the Su family's courtyard, the sound of two cars speeding was heard and they stopped in front of the house.
Father Su and Su Rui got out of their cars one after another and threw the keys to the housekeeper.
The two talked in low voices about the hospital and turned to walk into the villa.
When Father Su saw his wife and adopted daughter, every wrinkle in his eyelids relaxed: "You two are actually reading magazines at home today? I thought you were going to appreciate flowers with Mrs. Song next door this afternoon."
Su's mother rolled her eyes at her husband and said with a sneer, "You really don't know anything. What flowers can you appreciate in September?"
"Are you asking us to go see the osmanthus flowers or the chrysanthemums? Wouldn't we be sweating profusely in this hot weather?"
Even though September is the beginning of autumn, it is still very hot in Shenzhen in September. During military training, many schools even had students suffer from heat stroke and the training was moved to October. It is a torture to enjoy flowers outdoors in this season.
Father Su rubbed his nose and did not refute. Instead, he sat next to his wife with a smile on his face. He took the medical magazine from Mother Su's hand and flipped through it. When he saw Su Rui's name on the front page, he immediately smiled and said, "Our Rui is pretty good. This is his third paper published in a domestic core journal this year, right? Judging from the momentum, he will probably have another one before the end of the year."
"I want to gain the master's recognition and inherit Sue's Hospital. Clinical medicine, research papers, and topics are all necessary..."
Father Su picked up the magazine, stood up, patted his son on the shoulder and said with a smile: "But Dad believes in you. You will definitely be able to convince your grandfather with your ability."
Su's Hospital was founded by the old man, but the old man has more than one child.
In addition to Su's father, the old man had three other sons and three daughters, a total of seven people.
Moreover, many of these people work in hospitals and are also eyeing the inheritance rights of Su Hospital.
As early as 10 years ago, the old man announced that the family's cash assets could be divided equally among all his descendants, but the hospital could not be handed over to the successor he thought was the most suitable and capable of leading Su's Hospital forward.
Therefore, not only Su's generation, many people worked in the hospital. Su Rui's generation, especially those who wanted to inherit the Su's Hospital, almost all studied medicine and tried their best to work in the Su's Hospital. Even if there were a few who were unwilling to study medicine, it was only because they felt that they could not compare with their brothers even if they studied medicine.
"Dad, don't worry. What is mine will definitely be mine..."
Su Rui glanced at his parents and chuckled softly, but his eyes and eyebrows showed confidence and determination.
As a person who returned from studying abroad with a doctorate degree and became an associate chief physician at the age of 27, Su Rui does have this confidence.
Father Su nodded with satisfaction. Since they were talking about the hospital, he subconsciously mentioned the morning meeting at the hospital today, Wednesday.
This is almost always the first thing Su's father does when he returns home after attending the hospital morning meeting.
As a private hospital, Su's also has its own rules.
The hospital holds a meeting every month hosted by my husband to discuss with the heads of various departments, the finance department, etc. about the upcoming work issues, the hospital's future goals, department development, etc.
Although Su Rui is very capable and has become an associate chief physician, he usually does not participate in such meetings. Instead, the director of the cardiovascular surgery department directly liaises with the hospital.
For this reason, after every meeting, Su's father would talk about this matter with Su Rui at home.
It can also allow Su Rui to know some hospital plans in advance, making it more convenient for daily work transfers.
Father Su smiled and said, "Come to think of it. At the morning meeting at the hospital today, Director Yan from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology told your grandfather that there seems to be a good doctor in the Sixth Hospital who is good at Chinese medicine moxibustion and can help pregnant women with malpositioned fetuses adjust the fetal position... Director Yan also asked your grandfather if they could let the doctors in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology find an opportunity to go to the Sixth Hospital for further studies."
"Sixth Hospital?" Su Rui and Su Wanwan were subconsciously surprised and blurted out the word.
Father Su was a little surprised. He glanced at the two of them subconsciously and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the Sixth Hospital? Why do you all look so strange?"
Su Wanwan took a deep breath, and when she looked at her father again, her complexion had completely returned to normal. The girl handed the magazine to her father with a smile, her voice soft and sweet: "Dad, I was just reading the recent issues of the provincial core journals. This month, there are several papers from the Sixth Hospital, and they are related to traditional Chinese medicine... That's why I was particularly surprised."
Su Wanwan: "I remember that everyone used to prefer Western medicine, didn't they? But I didn't expect that not only has the number of Chinese medicine papers increased recently, but even Director Yan has started talking about Western medicine..."
The girl's eyes were dark and bright, and seemed to be filled with pure curiosity.
Father Su glanced at Su Wanwan and said with a helpless smile: "I didn't expect you to still pay attention to this..."
"It is normal for the number of TCM papers to increase. Recently, the government has not only said that we need to increase traditional culture, but also started to promote TCM treatment to get back to what our ancestors left behind."
Father Su was a little curious and stretched out his hand: "Come to think of it, I haven't read this month's journals yet... Can you find those journals with Chinese medicine papers and show them to me?"
Speaking of this, Father Su was also a little curious. He felt that the current social trend was not only in cultural inheritance and medicine, but also in a series of other things.
People also believe in traditional Chinese medicine more than before and like ancient customs.
Even in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, it has become popular in recent years to hold exhibitions of ancient paintings and clothing, etc.
Father Su touched his chin. Although they are in the medical industry, this trend is also reminding their hospital that they can indeed add more positions for traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and hire more outstanding traditional Chinese medicine practitioners to work in the hospital.
Su Wanwan raised her hand and handed the magazine containing Su Tang's papers to Su's father, but she felt very unhappy.
But Su Wanwan couldn't tell anyone about the anger that was suppressed in her heart.
Because she was the only one who knew what the relationship between Su Tang and the Su family was in the previous life, even though Su Wanwan had already found out a few years ago that Su Tang was adopted by another family with the surname Su after her, and that the people who adopted Su Tang were just a couple from a poor small clinic.
It is impossible for him to have any connection with the Su family in this life, but it can be seen that Su's father is very interested in Su Tang's thesis.
Su Wanwan felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on her chest. She felt as if something was out of her control, and might even develop in a direction that she least wanted to see...
Whenever this happened, Su Wanwan couldn't help but hate her body.
If it weren't for the congenital heart disease in this body, I would never be able to stay up late and spend a lot of time studying like ordinary students, nor would I be able to work late night shifts like medical staff.
In her life, she will definitely choose the same medical profession that Grandpa Su likes, just like Su Tang did.
Instead of just casually choosing a humanities major that is easy and allows you to take a leave anytime and anywhere to go to the hospital...
"Dad... I think my sister seems a little uncomfortable, why don't I take her upstairs to rest..." You read in the living room first, I will go to the study with you later to talk about the hospital...
Su Rui glanced at Su Wanwan, then slowly retracted his deep gaze. He was about to turn around and talk to his father, but his words were mostly stuck in his throat before he could finish them.
But seeing Su's father across from him, his eyes suddenly lit up, his face full of surprise, but he laughed and said: "Hey, come and take a look?! I didn't expect there could be such a coincidence in the world!"
"This, this, this, and this... the authors of these four papers are actually the doctor from the Sixth Hospital that Director Yan mentioned in the meeting this morning! The one who can help pregnant women with malpositioned fetuses to reverse the fetal position!" The smile on Su's father's face was truly a surprise.
He really didn't expect that the doctor who was just mentioned this morning would be able to see his paper in a provincial journal when he returned home in the afternoon.
Su Rui was a little startled, his heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition spread up his spine.
He subconsciously turned his attention from Su Wanwan's slightly pale face to the three medical journals next to his father.
In fact, as a deputy chief physician, Su Rui subscribes to provincial medical journals as usual, but generally he rarely reads these articles.
In the past, most of the papers he read were domestic core journals and foreign core journals. Only the papers published in these journals were worthy of his skills as an associate chief physician. Although the names of provincial core journals were also well-known, their technical content was indeed not as good as the other two.
But when Su Rui stood up, walked to his father's side, and saw the names on the papers and the names and departments of the Sixth Hospital clearly, Su Rui couldn't help but frown slightly.
——Shenzhen Sixth People’s Hospital, Department of General Internal Medicine, Resident Physician, Su Tang.
Su Rui: “…………”
Su Rui frowned and looked consciously at Su Wanwan standing beside him.
Seeing that the other party's expression did not change at this moment, except for the paleness and weakness caused by congenital heart disease, Su Rui could not see any fluctuations.
Su Rui sighed in his heart. He had not forgotten how Su Wanwan felt when she saw Su Tang's profile on the hot news a month ago. She was so upset that she felt unwell and lay in bed...
Su Rui: "Dad... I think we should forget about the hospital training. Our hospital serves high-end clients, especially in the obstetrics and gynecology department... This Dr. Su is just an ordinary resident. Although he has published 4 provincial papers, judging from his qualifications, I'm afraid he hasn't worked in the hospital for many years."
Su Rui: "How many patients can such a junior doctor see?"
"Uh..." Father Su looked at Su Rui without saying anything, but his eyes were filled with deep thought.
"Even if this kind of doctor has treated one or two malpositioned fetuses with traditional Chinese medicine, it doesn't mean that he or she can really master this technique... maybe you just got lucky and met him or her by chance."
Su Rui looked deep in his eyes: "But our obstetricians and gynecologists have spent a lot of time and energy on further study, but they have done more harm than good, damaging the health of pregnant women and the fetuses inside them. What should we do?"
Su Rui said seriously: "Dad, you also know that the fees for obstetrics and gynecology in our hospital are not low... The price is more than 10 times that of ordinary public hospitals. In case of an accident, the difficulty of handling it will also be more than 10 times that of a public hospital..."
"You're right... this is indeed a problem... after all, it's a new technology..."
Father Su nodded and smiled at his son, "But the final decision on this matter is still your grandfather's. As long as your grandfather thinks it is suitable, the obstetrician and gynecologist will definitely go to the Sixth Hospital for further training."
Father Su thought for a moment and said, "But based on your grandfather's personality... I don't think he will let the obstetrician and gynecologist go to the Sixth Hospital in the short term, so you can rest assured."
"This is not something we should worry about..."
Father Su patted his son on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You are a cardiac surgeon, but you are still thinking about obstetrics and gynecology. You are worthy of being one of the successors of our hospital..."
Su Rui raised his eyebrows, chuckled and didn't respond, but his eyes once again looked at the provincial core magazines on the stalls.
Although it seemed like he was being careless, he actually took a close look at the four papers that had Su Tang's name on them.
The quality of these papers is very good. After some revisions and the addition of more convincing data, they can even be submitted to core domestic journals.
If it weren't for Su Wanwan's existence, Su Rui felt that he might admire such a young doctor.
Being able to write such a paper at the age of 22 is already quite outstanding.
Even when he was 22 years old, he couldn’t publish 4 papers at the same time…
However...
This paper may have been put together for a long time, or maybe...
Thoughts were spinning in his mind, and Su Rui slowly withdrew his gaze.
However, Su Wanwan, who was sitting next to him and was alert at all times, saw the fleeting glimmer of admiration in Su Rui's eyes, which made her clench her teeth slightly involuntarily.
really……
The Su family is indeed a medical family. From the old to the young, everyone will look with admiration at any doctor with good medical skills.
Even more than 50% of the elders of the Su family, both men and women, married doctors in hospitals or other professional medical personnel.
Thinking of the rumor that Grandpa Su had directly passed the Su's Hospital to Su Tang in his previous life, Su Wanwan couldn't help but clench her hands until her knuckles turned slightly white.
At this moment, Father Su, who was sitting on the sofa next to him, stroked his chin and said with a smile: "Although your grandfather probably won't let the obstetrician and gynecologist go to the Sixth Hospital for further study, but I think this girl is pretty good... maybe your grandfather is interested and will recruit her to Su's Hospital."
Father Su flipped through the journals and pointed at the titles of the papers and said, "Look at the contents of several papers written by this girl... It seems that she is not only good at obstetrics and gynecology, but also seems to be quite good at neurology. These four papers are all related to neurology..."
Father Su: "Hahaha...if your grandfather saw this child, he would be very happy!"
Before he retired, Grandpa Su was an old Chinese medicine practitioner. When Su's Hospital was still a small clinic, Grandpa started his career with Chinese medicine.
Therefore, even though the old man has had to spend a lot of time handling hospital business in recent years due to health reasons and his status, and has been unable to see patients in the outpatient clinic, he still has an instinctive liking for traditional Chinese medicine.
Father Su even suspected that if his eldest brother had not studied Chinese medicine but still had mediocre qualifications after so many years and had only become an associate chief physician, and if none of the younger generation of children liked Chinese medicine, the old man might have passed the Su's Hospital to the child who knew Chinese medicine.
Father Su glanced at his son with some regret, then slowly looked away.
It was rare for his son to have the talent to study medicine and achieve great success in this field, and he could not expect more.
Receiving the regretful look from his adoptive father to Su Rui, he thought of the rumor from his previous life that his grandfather had handed the hospital over to Su Tang...
Su Wanwan tried hard to control her expression, forced a gentle smile, and acted as well-behaved as possible.
But his teeth clenched slightly involuntarily, revealing his unwillingness.
If we talk about the biggest difference between her and Su Tang in this life.
Perhaps it was because of her poor health that she could not study medicine. Even though she acted like a spoiled child in front of Su's father and mother every day, the old man who lived in the main house still treated her harshly. She could not be called bad, nor good, just ordinary.
This was completely different from a photo Su Wan had seen once in her life at the director of an orphanage.
In the photo - Su Tang and Su Laoyezi are squatting in the pharmacy preparing Chinese medicinal materials together. The old and the young have bright smiles that are warm and intimate.
Not like she is now.
Every time I followed my adoptive parents to the main house to greet the old man and have a meal with him, we just really had a meal and greeted him, and there was no other words...
The Shenzhen Stock Exchange is neither small nor big. Even Su Rui himself did not expect that in just over a month, Su Wanwan and Su Tang would meet at home again in this way.
Su Rui lowered his eyes slightly. No matter what, the other party was just a stranger to their family.
There is no reason to sacrifice your sister for the other person and make Wanwan sad and worried.
Su Rui slowly said, "Dad, look at what you said... Grandpa likes any doctor, and he likes a Chinese medicine doctor even more... Even if it's not this Doctor Su, it would be the same if it was any other doctor."
Father Su didn't think too much about it. He laughed and nodded, "Hahaha... From what you said, it seems as if your grandfather doesn't like you."
The father and son chatted briefly, and under Su Rui's guidance, the topic quickly shifted from Su Tang to other places. Then from the hospital to Su's mother, and the parents started chatting again.
Su Rui sighed, patted Su Wanwan on the shoulder, and told her to go back and rest early: "Wanwan, stop watching... Go back and rest."
"You don't look well. You'd better go to bed early today... I'll take you upstairs." Thinking that Su Wanwan was thinking about Su Tang again and felt guilty, Su Rui felt a little reluctant and subconsciously touched Su Wanwan's soft hair.
"Brother, don't worry...I'm fine."
Walking to the bedroom door, the girl raised her head, and a gentle smile appeared on her pale face. She said shyly and enviously, "I just envy you for having a healthy body... and being able to do what you want."
Su Wanwan: "I have always wanted to be an excellent doctor like you, Grandpa and Brother, instead of studying humanities like I am doing now..."
"But... I'm just a little jealous now, just a little..."
Su Wanwan pursed her lips, her eyes lonely, but the next second she smiled again and said: "But it will be fine tomorrow morning, brother, don't worry!"
Su Wanwan clenched her fist, raised her little fist, and made a gesture of full of energy.
Su Rui touched Su Wanwan's head with pity: "Don't worry... Brother will definitely find a suitable heart for you. Then you can learn whatever you want."
"I will definitely find my heart!" Su Rui promised Su Wanwan, and also promised himself.
……………………
"A-choo! A-choo! A-choo!—"
Su Tang was standing at Wei's house giving acupuncture to Wei Yan, but when she had only inserted the needle halfway, Wei Yan sneezed four or five times in a row, which made Su Tang almost think that she had caught a cold again. However, she cleared her throat and found that there was no discomfort in her throat at all.
After Su Tang gave Wei Yan the last injection, he subconsciously touched his throat. He felt as if something was wrong with his whole body.
Could it be that the guy in front of her is scolding her again?
His sight and consciousness were fixed on Wei Yan, who had taken off his shirt, was lying on the bed, and had hundreds of silver needles stuck in his back.
But I always felt that something was not right, but Su Tang couldn't put his finger on it.
The man's current condition is much better than it was more than a month ago. Gaining weight every week, Wei Yan is no longer skinny and bony with his winding back bones exposed after taking off his clothes. And because of the rehabilitation training during this period, he started with the muscles of his arms and then moved on to his toes and other parts.
Even the faint outline of the opponent's arm began to appear, but Wei Yan's skin was already colder and paler than that of ordinary people, so he still looked a little sick.
Su Tang blinked subconsciously, muttering in confusion: "This shouldn't be right... I treated him so well that his toes can move, why would he scold me? Could it be someone else...?"
Wei Yan: “???”
Secretary Zhao: “???”
Secretary Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at the boss who was lying on the bed without saying anything but moving his ears slightly, and immediately explained: "Doctor Su, you definitely have a cold! How could our boss scold you behind your back?"
"Uh... I was just joking, don't take it too seriously." Su Tang was embarrassed and just laughed it off.
During each acupuncture treatment, Wei Yan would lie motionless on the bed, like a dehydrated salted fish, making her almost forget that he was a living person and not an acupuncture specimen.
"Hey, Dr. Su, you can't make such a joke casually. You almost scared me to death..." Secretary Zhao patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
The person in front of them is their boss's life-saving doctor. If his boss is misunderstood and the other party is not conscientious in treating the disease, wouldn't he be scared to death?
Su Tang said awkwardly: “…………”
Oh...she was just joking.
How could I be so nervous?
"Cough cough..." Su Tang coughed twice. It seems that as a serious doctor, she should stop joking about such things.
After thinking about it, Su Tang subconsciously mentioned it out of a desire to compensate him: "Today, our family has cooked a nourishing medicinal meal. Although it has nothing to do with treating leg problems, Mr. Wei can still eat it. Would you like to try it, Mr. Wei?"
Su Tang originally thought that the other party would refuse as usual, and she was about to say that there was no need to be so polite.
Suddenly, a male voice sounded in my ears.
--"good."
Su Tang was surprised: “………?”
Huh? Aren't you a germaphobe? What's good about that?
Su Tang was confused, but since the other party wanted to eat it, she served him one portion.
After Su Tang finished the injection, she sent a bowl of the medicinal food she had prepared at home to the Wei family. After taking back the clean porcelain bowl from the Wei family, she returned home with a smile on her face.
Wei Yan, who had just finished his meal, said: "...Burp!"
Secretary Zhao: “…………”
Really, is it really that delicious? ? The boss hadn’t enjoyed dinner for many days, but he just finished two meals in a row.
