Chapter 15: Find someone better than me
The Yu siblings hurried all the way and finally returned to Liyang County at 8:30 in the morning.
The two first drove to the gate of the county's No. 1 Middle School and encouraged their niece who was preparing to take the college entrance examination.
Afterwards, Yu Zhiming rode the small electric scooter that his elder sister had brought to take Fu Xiaoxue to the college entrance examination, and hurried to the hospital to work.
Yu Xiangwan drove her elder sister home.
As the car started moving, Yu Xiangwan couldn't wait to say, "Sister, I have some bad news for you."
"Lao Wu is heartbroken and in a bad mood. Please make some of his favorite food tonight to comfort him."
"Laowu has never had a girlfriend, how could he suffer a broken heart?" Yu Chaoxia was confused and totally bewildered.
Yu Xiangwan briefly recounted his trip to Jinling last night and his chance encounter with a female classmate he liked.
After hearing this, Yu Chaoxia breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's a good thing."
"Over the past few years, your second and third sisters and I have introduced so many good girls to Lao Wu, but he hasn't taken a fancy to any of them."
"We were all privately worried that Lao Wu might be too focused on medicine to get married, or that his sexual orientation was different from others."
It was the first time Yu Xiangwan heard such words, and she couldn't help but curl her lips.
"Sister, what are you all thinking? You actually think there's something wrong with Lao Wu's sexual orientation?"
"Old Five is such a normal guy. I even found some action movies on his computer."
Yu Zhaoxia glared and criticized, "Old Four, is a porn movie something a grown-up girl like you can watch?"
"Let's not talk about Lao Wu, let's talk about you now."
"Fourth child, you are a girl. It's no problem to delay the fifth child for a few more years. How old are you?"
"Rounding it off, you're thirty now. Do you still want to have children?"
"Old Four, you are pretty, but a girl's beauty doesn't last long. While there are still boys pursuing you, stop growing those eye sockets on your head..."
Yu Xiangwan has become immune to such nagging.
She remained silent, pretending that it wasn't her...
After Yu Zhiming returned to the hospital, he became busy.
He first did rounds with his colleagues in the department.
Then he adjusted the prescriptions for several patients under his care, wrote medical records, completed the discharge documents for two patients who were about to be discharged, and checked the health of the patient who had surgery that afternoon...
It was not until after eleven o'clock in the morning that Yu Zhiming got a little rest time.
Before he finished drinking the cold glass of water, he unexpectedly received a call from his second brother-in-law.
"Old Five, do you have any plans for lunch?"
"If not, why not go to the Li Family Chef Restaurant near your hospital and have a simple meal?"
Yu Zhiming's second brother-in-law works as a household registration police officer at the Chengguan Police Station.
He has been a police officer for more than ten years and is still a household registration police officer today.
Its working status has remained very stable for more than ten years.
Yu Zhiming brought the phone closer to his mouth and said weakly, "Brother-in-law, just tell me what you have to say!"
"I didn't get much rest last night. I'm so exhausted from working so hard. Besides wanting to sleep, I don't have any appetite at all."
The second brother-in-law's voice came from the phone, "Old Five, it's like this, I have a buddy, his grandfather is in very poor health, and he just went to the provincial capital's big hospital for a checkup."
"He wants you to help look at the examination and test results, and make some treatment suggestions."
After a pause, the second brother-in-law's voice sounded again.
"Old Five, no matter how sleepy or tired you are, you still have to eat lunch, right? My buddy is waiting right here."
Yu Zhiming was too lazy to roll his eyes and said, "I really have no appetite. How about this, I feel like eating noodles."
"The hand-rolled noodles at the shop across from Li's chef are pretty good. Let's go there for lunch."
The second brother-in-law's voice on the phone became lively, "Okay, let's have noodles at noon."
"See you at noon..."
Yu Zhiming put down his phone and suddenly noticed from the corner of his eye that there was a pregnant woman with a big belly in the office.
He turned around and found that he knew the pregnant woman.
Qu Hui, his former blind date.
This pretty girl pursued Yu Zhiming passionately and actively for two or three months, but when she found out that this guy was hard-hearted and indifferent, she gave up feeling hurt.
Qu Hui, with her belly bulging, walked over to meet Yu Zhiming's gaze and said, "Yu Zhiming, I'm here for a prenatal checkup. I heard you're going to Binhai for development."
"Is it true?"
Yu Zhiming stood up and gave up his seat.
“It hasn’t been finalized yet, I can only say there’s a chance!”
Yu Zhiming replied cautiously, helping Qu Hui, whose forehead was covered in sweat, to sit down, and then congratulated her, "Qu Hui, congratulations on becoming a mother!"
Qu Hui snorted lightly and said with a sidelong glance, "Yu Zhiming, you originally had a great chance of making me pregnant with your child."
She puffed out her belly again and said, "I'm telling you, I'm pregnant with twins."
"Do you regret it?"
In response to such a tough topic, Yu Zhiming gave a polite and embarrassed smile.
Qu Hui did not continue to ask, staring into Yu Zhiming's eyes, and said: "Yu Zhiming, I want to ask you..."
"Do you know that you will eventually leave our small county and develop somewhere better?"
"So that's why you rejected my advances and all the other girls in the county?"
Well...
Yu Zhiming saw Qu Hui pursing her lips with a serious look on her face, and decided to follow her wishes.
He nodded and said, "That's the reason."
"In order to get out, I need to improve my medical skills, so I don't have time for romance."
Qu Hui uttered an "oh" and said, "I guess so."
"Given my conditions, Qu Hui, whether it's appearance, figure, education, or family, she's all excellent. She's also so proactive and willing to lower herself to pursue you. There's no reason why I can't catch up with you."
Yu Zhiming felt a little uncomfortable.
Qu Hui's self-righteousness has become more and more serious.
Yu Zhiming picked up the half cup of cold water on the desk and drank it in one gulp, suppressing the complaints that were about to rise to his throat.
Qu Hui changed her gaze to one of admiration and said, "Yu Zhiming, you are truly worthy of being the man I, Qu Hui, have set my sights on. You have soared to fame and have gone straight to Binhai for development."
After a pause, she sternly warned him, "You must find a wife who is very, very good in all aspects, including figure and appearance."
"If you're still not as good as me, you'll be criticized and I'll be laughed at, do you know that?"
Yu Zhiming nodded vigorously and said, "Qu Hui, don't worry, for my own sake, and for yours..."
"I will work very hard to find a girl who is excellent in every aspect to be my wife."
Qu Hui emphasized, "Not just excellent, but even better than me. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
Yu Zhiming repeated the sentence and thought to himself, if I use you as the standard, it should be more than enough to find four or five people among the many blind dates I have had in the past.
Of course, he wouldn't say this.
When Yu Zhiming saw Qu Hui trying to get up, he quickly reached out and helped her stand up slowly.
Qu Hui stood up, stroked her lower abdomen, moved closer to Yu Zhiming, and lowered her voice.
"Yu Zhiming, my father-in-law is the banker, and my family and friends are all betting on the gender of my unborn child."
"Two boys, odds of 1.5 to 1, bet 37,000."
"Two girls, two to one, a bet of twenty-three thousand."
"A man and a woman, 50/1, bet 6,000."
"I want to win more money for milk powder, don't you?"
As Qu Hui said this, she threw a rather coquettish glance at Yu Zhiming.
In order to make this guy leave quickly, Yu Zhiming reached out and patted her belly gently.
"Take a chance. The villa is next to the sea. Qu Hui, you can be as brave as possible!"
When Qu Hui heard Yu Zhiming's words, her eyes lit up.
She was so excited that she couldn't stay any longer and rushed out of the office.
Yu Zhiming had no choice but to hurry up and keep telling her to walk slowly and not to fall...
Near the end of get off work at noon, Yu Zhiming received another call from Qi Yue and was told that the assessment was scheduled for next Thursday.
"Zhi Ming, you'd better relax your schedule and stay in Binhai for a few more days."
"There are a few timid and fearful guys who are crying and begging you to check their hearts and bodies..."
