Chapter 559 I Can’t Let You Call Me Uncle in vain (asking for monthly tickets)
Gu Qingning made a reservation at a small two-story restaurant on the street that specializes in casserole stews and looks quite old.
Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning waited for about five or six minutes in a small private room on the second floor of the restaurant that could accommodate up to six people, and then Dr. Cui Zhitan arrived.
He also brought a handsome young man who looked a little shy.
"Doctor Yu, Miss Gu, this is my nephew Cui Yilin, a second-year clinical medicine student at Jiaotong University School of Medicine."
After Cui Zhitan finished the introduction, he urged, "Hurry up and say hello to Uncle Yu and Aunt Gu."
Yu Zhiming felt a little overwhelmed by being addressed as uncle, especially since the other party was a college student who was about the same height as him and not much older than him.
Yu Zhiming quickly stopped him and said, "Just call them uncle and aunt, they are all young people of the same age."
"Just call me your equal."
Cui Zhitan insisted, "How can this be possible? Doctor Yu, you and I are colleagues of equal rank."
"So, the order of generations cannot be messed up."
As they were talking, Choi Ji-dam slapped his nephew on the shoulder and criticized him, "You begged me to bring you here, and now you're meeting your idol in person. Are you so happy you're crazy?"
"You're like a wooden man, and you don't even call for help?"
Cui Yilin giggled twice, then bowed to Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning, and said sheepishly, "Uncle Yu, good evening! Aunt Gu, good evening!"
"Yilin, hello to you too!"
Yu Zhiming replied, and then said, "Doctor Cui, Yilin, please take a seat..."
After some pleasantries, they sat down and ordered the dishes after some polite exchanges.
Basically, they are the restaurant’s main dishes, such as casserole pork intestines, casserole pig’s trotters, casserole lamb, casserole fish head, etc.
Gu Qingning also reserved two dishes in advance that could elevate the quality of the dinner, casserole abalone and casserole ham and sea cucumber.
The main reason is the level of the restaurant. Most of the customers are ordinary people, and there are no high-end dishes.
In addition, several vegetarian dishes and cold dishes are also served.
The wine was the red wine that Qing Ning brought from home.
After the waiter brought the steaming hot casserole pork intestines and casserole mutton, Yu Zhiming tasted them one by one and found them to be quite delicious.
The pig intestines are very fragrant and have no peculiar smell.
As for the casserole lamb, each piece is meat with skin, which tastes rich and satisfying when eaten.
It makes sense that delicious food is found in small shops in the city.
Cui Zhitan was also very satisfied with the meal and said, "I didn't expect there was such a hidden gem of a restaurant near the hospital."
"I'll come here more often in the future. It's so comfortable to have a hot casserole feast like this on such a cold day."
Yu Zhiming nodded in agreement.
Cui Zhitan looked at his nephew who was eating and drinking beside him, and said, "Yilin, Dr. Yu has a niece who is also studying in medical school. She transferred here midway through her studies."
"Do you know him?"
Cui Yilin swallowed his food and looked up. "Transferring from a regular university, and changing her major, is a first for a medical school. Her reputation is incredibly high in our medical school."
"There is no one who doesn't know her."
Yu Zhiming asked, "Are the students discussing this a lot?"
Cui Yilin hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Yes, there's been a lot of discussion. People say that Jiaotong University, as one of the top five universities in the country, should have a bottom line and dignity, and shouldn't make exceptions for relationships."
Gu Qingning said softly, "Zeng Yan only seemed a little out of place and attracted attention because she changed schools and majors midway through."
"You know, at prestigious universities like Jiaotong University and Binhai University, among the new students admitted every year, there are many students with connections who are admitted through special admission."
"I can't say how many there are, but there are probably dozens."
"No way?" Cui Yilin looked unconvinced.
Cui Zhitan reached out and flicked his nephew's head, saying, "Don't be so foolish and idealistic. This is the reality and national conditions. Relationships and human feelings are everywhere."
Yu Zhiming thought of another point and said, "With all the gossip, Zeng Yan will definitely be ostracized by many classmates."
"She must be under a lot of pressure."
As he spoke, Yu Zhiming took out his cell phone, found Zeng Yan's number and dialed it.
The call was quickly connected, and Zeng Yan's lively voice came from the phone.
"Uncle, is there something wrong?"
Yu Zhiming said softly, "You've been busy preparing for the final exam. I haven't seen you for a while. Has the exam started yet?"
"It's time to start. The exams will be over next Friday and we'll be on holiday."
Yu Zhiming said, "Oh," and asked, "How do you feel?"
Zeng Yan's voice deepened as she spoke, "I don't feel very good. I didn't remember some of the questions, and some of my answers were not good."
"This exam is likely to disappoint you, uncle."
Yu Zhiming consoled him, "Your situation is special. Besides, your classmates were all top students in high school. The fact that you ranked second to last in your major this time is an exceptional performance."
Zeng Yan's chuckle came from the phone, "Uncle, I think the test results this time shouldn't be that bad, right?"
Yu Zhiming also chuckled and said, "You ranked last in the exam, which is the most appropriate performance, so don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Like I said before, studying medicine is like a marathon. It doesn't matter where you finish. As long as you persevere to the finish line and don't collapse halfway, it's a great victory."
Zeng Yan hummed heavily and said, "Uncle, I also ask the same of myself."
“Don’t compare yourself with others, keep learning every day, and make yourself progress and improve every day.”
“Yes, make yourself a little better every day.”
Yu Zhiming echoed this, then turned and asked, "Are your classmates talking about your change of school and major?"
Zeng Yan immediately replied, "Yes, there are some."
"They can talk about whatever they want. I'm busy studying, eating, and exercising every day. I don't have time to listen to their gossip."
Yu Zhiming could tell that Zeng Yan's voice was quite cheerful, and she didn't seem hurt by the gossip.
This made him feel relieved.
"Zeng Yan, if anyone dares to bully you, don't be patient, and return it tenfold."
"I, your uncle, have good connections now, and I can definitely help you."
Zeng Yan's giggles echoed through the phone again. "Uncle, I get it. I won't let myself be humiliated."
"We will definitely fight back resolutely!"
Hearing that Zeng Yan was in good physical and mental condition, Yu Zhiming chatted for a few more minutes and then ended the call.
Cui Zhitan waited until Yu Zhiming put down the phone and praised him, "From this call, I can see, Doctor Yu, your niece has a good attitude, is self-disciplined, and is motivated."
"In the future, he may become a famous doctor again."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "She's a girl, so I didn't agree with her switching to medicine at first."
"But she likes it and keeps insisting on it."
Yu Zhiming took a sip of the ham and sea cucumber soup and continued, "As for how far she can go in the future, let's wait and see."
“It’s also very possible to give up halfway.”
Cui Zhitan chuckled and said, "With a shining example like you to guide her, she will definitely be able to persevere."
He then instructed his nephew, "Yilin, when you return to school, take good care of this junior girl. Don't let anyone bully her. Help her with her homework."
Cui Yilin hummed perfunctorily.
Cui Zhitan saw through it and said slowly, "Yilin, you were recommended to study clinical medicine at Jiaotong University School of Medicine."
"Have you ever thought about why you were accepted without taking the entrance exam when there were so many outstanding students applying to Jiaotong University's medical school?"
Cui Yilin was stunned for a moment, then asked in confirmation, "Uncle, did you help me with the connections?"
Cui Zhitan nodded and said, "Even though we were just catching up and having a meal, they all know your name."
Cui Yilin was silent for a moment, looking very shocked. He said, "Uncle, I don't need your help. I can pass the exam with my own ability."
"Yeah?"
Cui Zhitan said slowly, "I remember you once said that there were two students in your grade who had better grades than you, but they failed the college entrance examination?"
Cui Yilin said confidently, "Uncle, they are them, and I am me. I am confident that I can perform normally, or even above average, in the college entrance examination."
Cui Zhitan sighed softly, "People always like to exaggerate their own strengths and belittle the abilities of others."
Seeing that his nephew still looked unconvinced, he was too lazy to lecture him for the moment and instead started drinking with Yu Zhiming and Qing Ning...
Knowing that Yu Zhiming still had to give a New Year gift, Cui Zhitan took the initiative to end the dinner at around 7:30 in the evening.
At this time, Cui Yilin suddenly spoke.
He mustered up the courage to say, "Uncle Yu, I specifically begged you to bring me here. Besides wanting to meet you in person, I also have something I want to ask of you!"
"Oh, what's the matter?" Yu Zhiming looked kind.
Cui Zhitan began to secretly try his luck.
The brat acted on his own and put himself in a passive position.
The good relationship I have built up with Yu Zhiming with great difficulty cannot be wasted on trivial matters.
But the brat had already said it, so Cui Zhitan could only wait for him to finish explaining what was going on.
"Uncle Yu, a classmate of mine is also a student at Jiaotong University, but not a medical student."
"She has been experiencing abdominal pain from time to time during this period, which has seriously affected her studies and life."
"I went to the school hospital, but they couldn't find the cause of the illness and just prescribed some painkillers."
Cui Zhitan interrupted, "It's just abdominal pain. There's no need to bother Doctor Yu with such a minor problem."
"Just leave it to me."
Cui Yilin questioned: "Uncle, you are a surgeon and not good at diagnosis."
"Isn't unexplained abdominal pain always a diagnostic challenge?"
What Cui Yilin said was correct.
Unexplained abdominal pain, like unexplained fever, is a difficult problem that gives doctors headaches in clinical practice.
Mainly because there is everything in the human stomach.
A pile of intestines and various organs. The intestines were very long, about seven or eight meters.
And for abdominal pain, how severe is the pain?
What is the nature of the pain?
Is it like a needle prick?
Or is it bloating and pain?
Or is it painful?
Or maybe I just don't know what it hurts?
Where exactly does it hurt?
Patients often cannot describe their symptoms clearly, especially children with abdominal pain.
Therefore, doctors often need to do exclusion tests on their patients.
Another reason for the difficulty is that the current inspection equipment has limited capabilities.
To diagnose something, you need to see it with your own eyes.
To examine the contents of the stomach, a colonoscopy or gastroscopy is often needed, but their length is just not enough to see the small intestine.
It is very simple to examine the stomach and large intestine. A gastroscope or colonoscope can be used to directly see clearly.
But the small intestine is soft and long, and it is very winding inside. No matter how hard you push the mirror, it won't bend in.
Cui Yilin choked his uncle once, then continued, "We researched it ourselves and also consulted a professor who works in the gastroenterology department of the affiliated hospital."
"The result was still nothing."
"Uncle Yu, what do you think?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "I can't let you call me uncle in vain. Let your classmate's classmate..."
Cui Yilin interrupted again, "Uncle Yu, it's exam week now, and she can still hold on with the help of painkillers."
"Can it be arranged after the final exams?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "It seems her condition is not serious."
"Okay, contact me in advance..."
