Chapter 520 New Year Gift
Yu Zhiming returned to his rental residence tonight a little earlier than usual, just after 6:30.
He washed up quickly and sat at the dining table, ready to have dinner with his fourth sister and Qing Ning.
Gu Qingning poured a bowl of yam and pork tripe soup and handed it to Yu Zhiming, saying, "Zhiming, my uncle Changyan contacted me today and said that there are a total of 247 elderly people who need physical examinations."
Yu Zhiming was a little surprised.
"Didn't you say there were more than a hundred people last time? How did it suddenly increase to over two hundred?"
Gu Qingning said gloomily, "He's running a promotion where you pay a one-time fee of 120,000 yuan and get a free medical checkup."
"Plus, your fame has grown, and more and more people are identifying with you, which has led to a sharp increase in the number of elderly people willing to undergo physical examinations."
Yu Xiangwan asked with concern, "Old Five, how about moving the physical examinations for half of the elderly to after the Spring Festival?"
"The New Year's Day holiday is supposed to be for rest. Don't push yourself too hard."
Yu Zhiming took a big sip of the pig stomach soup and said, "After the Spring Festival, there will be work after the Spring Festival."
"Although there are nearly 250 people, it's a lot, but if I work overtime at night, I can finish it in two days."
"On the third day of the holiday, I just lay down and rested."
Gu Qingning said, "Uncle Changyan also said that he has prepared everything for food, accommodation and entertainment, and he guarantees that the three-day trip will be worthwhile."
"only……"
Gu Qingning said regretfully, "Xiaoxue and Zeng Yan are preparing for their final exams and don't have time to go."
"Brother-in-law and Xiaobo have to rush their work and don't have time."
Yu Xiangwan took over and said, "Zhang Bai and I are busy too. We can only stay there with you for one day and have to come back the next day."
Yu Zhiming finished a piece of braised hairtail fish and said, "With Zhou Mo assisting me with my work, the three of you can relax and unwind."
Yu Xiangwan asked curiously, "Old Five, does Momo really hate that guy so much that she's willing to use work to avoid him?"
"Director Qi's son has returned from studying abroad and has grown up with a friend. No matter how you look at it, he's a very suitable marriage partner."
Yu Zhiming recalled what happened that afternoon and said with disdain, "He's just a guy spoiled by his parents. He's immature, shows off, thinks highly of himself, and is self-righteous..."
Yu Xiangwan interrupted and asked, "Did he offend you?"
Yu Zhiming nodded and said, "This afternoon, he suddenly brought 20 or 30 people and asked me to examine them."
"Who does he think he is? Just because he's the teacher's son, he can give me orders?"
Gu Qingning said angrily, "That's really outrageous. He doesn't even know how much he weighs."
"Zhiming, have you told Director Qi?"
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "No."
"I don't want to ruin the teacher's good mood. Anyway, I will just ignore his unreasonable request."
Yu Xiangwan asked worriedly, "Aren't you afraid that he'll be the first to complain and say bad things about you to the director?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "If he were smart, he wouldn't do that. The teacher has a clear conscience and isn't someone who can be easily deceived."
"The more important thing is what kind of person I am. After six months of contact, the teacher should have a pretty good idea of me, even if he doesn't know everything clearly."
Gu Qingning reminded: "You'd better be more careful. They are father and son."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Now the teacher has reconciled with his eldest son, and he also has a younger son who is raised by his side."
"As the second son, he doesn't carry that much weight..."
Just then, Yu Zhiming received a call from Dr. Xiong Jing.
"Doctor Yu, I've been at Ning'an Hospital all day monitoring Gu's heart and physical condition."
Dr. Xiong said excitedly during the call, "Based on your suggestions, I have made bolder adjustments to the ancient medication."
“It can be said that it was a great success.”
"The ancient heart function comprehensive data has increased by about twelve percentage points, and no other abnormalities have been found."
"An ancient self-description, a sense of returning to my youth."
After a pause, Dr. Xiong said solemnly, "Dr. Yu, the success of adjusting Gu Lao's medication has given me a bold idea for the medication regimen for that heart transplant patient."
"I have a feeling the chances of success this time are very high!"
Yu Zhiming said happily: "This is exciting and great news. I wish you great success in advance."
Then he reminded me, "Doctor Xiong, I have to go to the suburbs to do a job during the three-day New Year's Day holiday. It will be inconvenient for you to rush back in the evening."
"So, the trial of the new prescription will be either tomorrow or after New Year's Day."
After a short silence, Dr. Xiong's voice came from the phone again.
"Let's arrange it after the New Year's Day holiday."
"My bold new idea for a prescription is likely to fail for patients whose hearts and bodies are already extremely weak."
"I also need more time to think carefully about all aspects of the matter and avoid any omissions..."
Around eight o'clock in the evening, Yu Zhiming, who was reading and studying in his bedroom, received another call from his elder sister.
"Old Five, there's no party today. Your second and third brother-in-law still have to go to work, so we've moved the party to the New Year's Day holiday."
Eldest sister Yu Zhaoxia then said, "My parents and I ate some of the venison and braised venison you asked your third sister to bring back tonight. Most of it is in the refrigerator."
"My parents and I both think it tastes good."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "If you like it, buy some more often in the future. It's not that expensive."
Yu Zhaoxia refused: "No need."
"It's not meat that we eat regularly like pork, beef, or mutton. Just try it once in a while."
"If you eat it frequently, your body might not be able to control it."
Yu Zhiming readily agreed, and then heard his eldest sister say, "Old Fifth, the New Year gifts you asked me to prepare, peanuts, millet, mung beans, sweet potato starch, and pancakes are all ready."
"They are all vacuum-packed in ten-pound bags."
"I've also ordered the boxed salted duck eggs."
"I'll have your third sister take care of these six New Year gifts and send them to you next Friday via the patient bus."
Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "Okay, after New Year's Day, the Spring Festival is not far away, it's time to give gifts."
He then asked, "Sister, shouldn't we prepare some gifts for visiting relatives?"
"Do you want me and Fourth Sister to prepare some in Binhai and have Third Sister take it back?"
Yu Zhaoxia refused again: "No need."
"It's just a few relatives we have frequent contact with. If the gifts we give are valuable and rare, it will be difficult for them to return the gifts."
"Just follow the old rules when visiting relatives."
At this time, Gu Qingning pushed the door open and said that Xiao Han, the owner of the Four Seasons Club, came to visit and brought a lot of gifts.
I just talked about gift-giving with my elder sister, and someone came to give New Year gifts?
Yu Zhiming ended the call with his elder sister and walked out of the bedroom. He saw Xiao Han with a smile on his face, as well as two foam boxes and four cardboard boxes of different sizes on the floor.
"Mr. Xiao, what are you doing?"
Xiao Han smiled and replied, "It's an early Spring Festival gift. It's just a small token of my appreciation. I hope Dr. Yu won't be shy."
Yu Zhiming said politely, "You are too polite, sir. This is a mutually beneficial cooperation. There is no need to spend so much money."
Xiao Han said with a smile on his face, "Doctor Yu, you are a famous doctor known throughout the country. Ultimately, it is because of your fame that our Four Seasons Club has benefited greatly..."
He said a few more polite words and then said goodbye and left.
Yu Zhiming sent Xiao Han into the elevator and returned home, where he saw his fourth sister using a small sharp knife to cut the tape on a foam box and lift the lid.
There are two each of fresh frozen large yellow croaker, red croaker and blue croaker.
Yu Xiangwan opened the second foam box and found a rather large king crab inside.
The four cartons included a box of cherries, a box of six smaller imported durians, a box of apples, and a box of chocolates from Belgium.
Gu Qingning took photos of all the boxes with his tablet computer, created a folder named Xiao Han, and saved the photos in it.
"Zhi Ming, I guess in a few days, you'll be flooded with New Year gifts."
"It's necessary to record it so that you don't get it mixed up or make mistakes."
Yu Zhiming sighed softly, "Actually, I don't really like the idea of sending gifts back and forth. It's too much trouble."
"But the national situation is such that I have no choice but to go with the flow."
Yu Zhiming scratched his head again and said, "If others give me gifts, they are all expensive, but I give them local specialties from the farm."
"Sister, Qing Ning, do you think I'll be considered too stingy?"
Gu Qingning chuckled and said, "Definitely not."
"You put a lot of thought into the gift you gave me. It's a small gift, but the thought is great."
"Besides, they give you gifts mainly to maintain their relationship with you."
"It doesn't matter what you actually gave him. What matters is whether you gave it to him."
"So, you must prepare this annual gift list carefully. It would be bad if you missed something."
Yu Zhiming said somewhat unconfidently: "Although I have been working in Binhai for more than half a year, I have interacted with many people, and some of them have helped or protected me..."
"I roughly counted and there are only about 20 to 30 people."
"This time, I asked my parents and eldest sister to prepare fifty local specialties from my hometown as New Year gifts. That should be enough."
Gu Qingning nodded gently and said, "Zhiming, although we don't want to miss out, the standard for receiving our annual gift should also be set a little higher."
"If the relationship is just ordinary, there is no need to give gifts."
"Otherwise, it would seem that your recognition and friendship are too cheap."
Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "I'll think it over carefully and draw up a list of annual gifts one by one."
At this time, Zhou Mo called.
"Doctor Yu, Doctor Yu, the latest news I've heard is that the medical department and the family of the patient who choked to death have broken down."
"They are asking us to take responsibility for negligence and untimely rescue, and they are also asking for huge compensation."
"The medical department was immediately furious and stopped contacting them. They told them to go through the legal process and see them in court."
Yu Zhiming uttered an "oh" and heard Zhou Mo turn around and say, "I also heard about Qi Zhen bringing people to the hospital this afternoon."
"It seems that he is just like that sister. They are both too self-righteous and disrespectful."
"I told my mom what he did this afternoon, and she said it was wrong of him, hehe..."
