Chapter 1657: Just Expressing Gratitude
After four o'clock in the afternoon, an unexpected guest came to Yu Zhiming's home, Dr. Qin Jingmo, a neurosurgeon at Peking Union Medical College Hospital.
Yu Zhiming looked at Qin Jingmo, who was carrying a bag and holding a long painting tube, and asked, "What's going on?"
"Are you not welcome if everything is fine?"
Qin Jingmo asked back, and then explained, "I came to Binhai to attend a consultation, and by the way, I went to Huashan Hospital to personally examine the brain tumor patient who woke up yesterday."
"To be precise, I took the opportunity to consult with a patient in Binhai while checking on the patient with the brain tumor."
Qin Jingmo chuckled and said, "After all, this is the first brain tumor surgery to be successfully completed using the method of injecting grease to make the tumor swell and grow. It's so memorable, how could I, as the lead surgeon, not come and see it myself?"
As they were talking, Qin Jingmo had already followed Yu Zhiming to the living room and sat down on the sofa.
Doctor Qin's words reminded Yu Zhiming of the woman who was proposed to by her boyfriend on the grass in the hospital.
"How is she? Are there any obvious sequelae?"
Qin Jingmo chuckled and replied, "Considering the difficulty of the surgery for her skull base meningioma, her recovery was perfect."
"Of course, there are still some sequelae, mainly a significant decrease in left eye vision and left ear hearing, and some numbness on the left side of the body."
"As time goes by, the sequelae will be alleviated and will not affect her normal work and life."
Yu Zhiming uttered a soft "oh" and asked politely, "Is Mr. Qin okay?"
Qin Jingmo chuckled and said, "Very well. I've been studying the medical heritage I got from you all day long. I've been completely absorbed in it, forgetting to eat or sleep."
Yu Zhiming sighed softly, "Grandpa is so old, yet he's still striving for excellence. He's truly a role model for my generation."
"My old man is a lifelong learner, and he always makes us brothers and sisters feel ashamed!"
Qin Jingmo echoed and took out a document from her bag and handed it to Yu Zhiming.
Yu Zhiming took it, opened it and saw that it was a paper.
It was Dr. Qin who performed the case study on injecting oil to expand the tumor for surgical removal.
What surprised Yu Zhiming was that he was the first author, Qin Jingmo was the second author, and Dr. Deng Yan, a neurosurgeon at Huashan Hospital, was the third author.
"Doctor Qin, you're the lead surgeon and you wrote the paper, so I can just be the second author and show my face."
Qin Jingmo said solemnly, "Although I am the lead surgeon, the idea for the surgical plan came from you. You also determined the key locations and injection volumes for the oil puncture tumor."
"So the biggest contributor to the success of this operation is you."
Qin Jingmo took a sip of his teacup and continued, "This operation has broadened my surgical thinking and improved my experience. This is enough for me."
"Besides, the thesis is just icing on the cake for me now, it doesn't have much effect."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "I don't need a paper to prove my medical ability now."
Qin Jingmo said, "With your ability, Doctor Yu, you will definitely become a medical scholar. It's just a matter of a few years."
"A few more weighty papers will make it harder for jealous people to find fault."
Yu Zhiming knew that the other party meant well, so he stopped refusing and thanked him, accepting the other party's kindness.
Qin Jingmo said happily, "We will be relatives in the future. Saying thank you would be too polite and awkward."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes and said, "It's a bit too early to talk about in-laws now. Xiaoxue is just a sophomore in college."
"Hey, why doesn't your precious son study medicine?"
Qin Jingmo's expression turned bitter as he said, "We were a little too impatient back then. Not only did we let our son learn Chinese medicine from my father since he was young, we also instilled modern medical knowledge in him."
"That guy developed a rebellious mentality, and especially when he hit his teenage rebellious phase, he refused to study medicine at all costs."
"There's nothing I can do. In the end, I just have to follow his wishes."
Yu Zhiming said seriously, "I just can't bring myself to do it, so I didn't hit him too hard. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had a rebellious period."
Qin Jingmo said with an embarrassed look on his face, "I only have this one son, so it's inevitable that I spoil him a little."
She quickly added, "Doctor Yu, my son is not only smart, but also very sensible and filial. He is a good child."
Qing Ning, who was accompanying her husband, saw that he still had a serious expression on his face, so she said, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Just like me, I have always been a headache for my parents since I was a child, but now I have become their treasure and pride."
Yu Zhiming also knew that Xiaoxue was no longer a child and he should not interfere too much in her affairs.
His expression softened a bit, and he said, "As for the younger generation's affairs, let them take their own course."
Yu Zhiming continued to invite, "Doctor Qin, if you don't have any other important arrangements today, please stay here and have a home-cooked meal with us."
Qin Jingmo said without hesitation: "Since Dr. Yu has invited me so warmly, I will shamelessly bother you..."
Aunt Qiu prepared the food for the guests in the evening, and Zhou Mo also went to the kitchen to help.
Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning continued to accompany Qin Jingmo in the living room.
Qin Jingmo picked up the one and a half meter long painting tube he brought with him, opened it, and took out a scroll of painting.
Because the scroll was wide and long, Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning brought Qin Jingmo to the restaurant and slowly unfolded it on the long dining table.
This is a majestic Chinese painting of mountain scenery, which gives people a sense of ambition as if they were standing on the top of a mountain and overlooking all the other mountains.
Yu Zhiming couldn't help but praise: "It's a good painting, with extraordinary spirit and broad mind."
"Whose master created this?"
Yu Zhiming asked, and then said with a sudden realization: "Doctor Qin, why don't you just show me this painting without saying anything!"
"Is it because this painting is a little special?"
Qin Jingmo said, "Doctor Yu is indeed very insightful."
After a pause, she slowly said, "Doctor Yu, you probably wouldn't have guessed who the artist of this painting is. I know you like to be straightforward, so I'll be frank with you."
"The artist of this painting is Chu Wei, a member of the Chu family in Beijing. She is also a member of the National Chinese Painting Association."
As soon as Yu Zhiming heard the name "Chu Wei", he knew it was a woman and couldn't help but say, "She suffers from heart problems, yet she can create such magnificent paintings."
"It must be said that a sword's edge comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. The Chu family is also full of talented people."
Qin Jingmo introduced: "Most of Chu Wei's previous paintings were small landscapes, flowers and plants. This is her first time to paint a masterpiece of mountain scenery with such artistic conception."
"Chu Wei said that after she got an artificial heart, she had been holding her breath and wanted to paint a large work. One day, inspiration suddenly struck, and she spent a full ten days painting this picture."
"After finishing this painting, Chu Wei said that she felt physically and mentally drained, and she would never paint such a touching work again."
After a pause, Qin Jingmo said in a deep voice, "Doctor Yu, she asked me to give this painting to you, thanking you for suggesting an artificial heart that allowed her to survive."
Yu Zhiming asked in confirmation, "It's just a way of expressing gratitude, not asking me to help research their hereditary heart disease?"
Qin Jingmo nodded and said, "Just to express my gratitude!"
Yu Zhiming uttered a sigh of relief and said, "This painting is indeed quite good. I quite like it. It evokes the feeling of reaching the summit of a mountain and becoming the peak itself."
"Also, it was indeed me who reminded Doctor Wang Yan about the artificial heart. In that case, I'll accept this painting."
After a pause, Yu Zhiming said to Qin Jingmo, "Tell painter Chu Wei that I have received your gratitude."
"Tell her again that the conflict between me and the Chu family is not something she can resolve, so she shouldn't worry too much about it."
"Since the artificial heart can temporarily solve the Chu family girl's heart problem, let's enjoy life..."
