Chapter 61 Reciprocity
At six o'clock on Wednesday morning, Yu Zhiming was awakened by the timer ring of the electronic clock.
He got up and went to the bathroom, and found that he had two obvious dark circles under his eyes in the mirror.
Last night, Yu Zhiming once again studied the inquiry records and medical information of patient Xu Feng, and before he knew it, midnight had passed.
He tried to find another possible cause to overturn his original guess.
Or, to find more solid evidence for his own hypothesis about the shingles virus.
As a result, none of them were achieved.
Last night, Yu Zhiming lay in bed unable to fall asleep, which was a rare occurrence not because of the noise.
He knew that this was a manifestation of self-doubt.
He was worried that a patient's health and life might be in danger because of his speculation.
Ultimately, it's because I'm inexperienced, not hard-hearted enough, and not ruthless enough...
Yu Zhiming freed up his memory step by step, washed up, and took a quick shower to refresh himself.
Then, he took the sleepy fourth sister and Xiaoxue to do aerobic exercises for twenty minutes.
Afterwards, Yu Zhiming returned to his bedroom and habitually took out a large foreign medical book to study...
At 7:20 in the morning, he was called out of the bedroom to have breakfast.
Yu Xiangwan and Fu Xiaoxue prepared breakfast together.
There is porridge made from millet mixed with peanuts, mung beans, red dates, etc.
Two boiled eggs per person and two large slices of braised beef.
The staple food is large steamed buns stuffed with beans and pork, each one is the size of an adult's fist.
This was the dinner that Yu Xiangwan and Fu Xiaoxue made for themselves yesterday. They made a few extra dishes on purpose.
I reheated it in the steamer this morning.
Yu Xiangwan also paired it with a small dish of pickled cucumbers and a cold dish of shredded cucumbers, carrots and kelp.
Yu Zhiming expressed his satisfaction with the richness and combination of breakfast, and praised his fourth sister and Xiaoxue for their dedication and hard work.
He also expressed his expectations for his fourth sister.
I hope she can keep up the good work and persevere, and not just get carried away and buy some random food from outside for breakfast after a few days...
After breakfast, the three of them packed up and prepared a little, then left the house together with the things they had packed last night.
This morning, Yu Xiangwan and Fu Xiaoxue will accompany Yu Zhiming to ride a shared bicycle to Huashan Hospital.
Yu Zhiming decided to ride a bicycle to and from get off work last night.
He plans to ride shared bikes for a while.
If this commuting method is really convenient and feasible, then consider buying a bicycle or electric car.
The three of them each carried a bulging backpack filled with Yu Zhiming's things.
There is the cup that Yu Zhiming used to drink water or make tea in the county hospital, and a can of hometown brand bitter gourd tea that his mother personally made for him to refresh himself.
There are also thin blankets, thin quilts, pillows, pajamas, slippers, two sets of inner and outer clothes, shoes and socks, a set of travel-sized toiletries, an umbrella, etc.
As a young doctor, night shifts are essential.
Sometimes, when you encounter special and urgent situations, you may have to stay in the hospital for a few days.
Therefore, it is necessary to prepare rest supplies, spare clothes, and toiletries in the hospital.
In addition, there are some snacks that can fill hunger and replenish energy, such as candy, biscuits, chocolate, walnut kernels, etc.
This is to prevent you from missing meals due to being busy, or having no time to eat, so you eat some snacks to fill your hunger.
Yu Zhiming loves to eat dried sweet potatoes, so he also prepared a few small cans of them, which his mother also made for him...
In Binhai at the end of July, even at eight o'clock in the morning, it was dry and hot when walking in the community.
When the sun shines on your body, you will feel a noticeable burning sensation.
Yu Zhiming was not like his sister and Xiaoxue, who wore sun-protective clothing, a sun hat, and sunglasses to protect themselves from the sun.
Even in the hottest summer, sunbathing for no more than one hour a day is beneficial to your health.
However, more and more people try to stay in air-conditioned rooms as much as possible in the summer, which makes the body's ability to adapt to the heat worse and worse.
Some people also lack sufficient sunlight, which leads to vitamin D deficiency in their bodies, resulting in symptoms similar to arthritis or fibromuscular syndrome (chronic muscle pain and fatigue), as well as osteoporosis.
Yu Zhiming also persuaded Fourth Sister and Xiaoxue.
However, these two guys were more afraid of getting a tan than anything else and refused to listen to his advice at all.
The three of them used their mobile phones to scan the codes of three shared bicycles not far from the entrance of the community.
Yu Xiangwan led the way, Yu Zhiming followed in the middle, and Fu Xiaoxue followed behind, and the cycling mode started.
Because he mostly rode in the alleys between residential areas and the roads inside old residential areas, there were not many vehicles passing by, and there was no sun exposure due to the shelter of buildings, so Yu Zhiming felt pretty good about cycling.
At least, the ride was relatively smooth, there was no traffic jam, and there were fewer traffic lights.
When the three of them walked through the streets and alleys and turned into an old community that could be called a shantytown, Yu Zhiming suddenly heard an extremely familiar voice.
He involuntarily stepped on the brakes and stopped.
Yu Zhiming looked in the direction of the sound...
In another narrow alley, a woman with a ponytail, wearing shorts, sneakers, and sunglasses, tapped the bumpy concrete floor with her guide cane as she walked towards them...
"Uncle..."
Yu Zhiming turned his head to look at Xiaoxue who was standing behind him, then he pushed hard on the pedals and resumed riding...
At 8:13 in the morning, the three of them arrived at Huashan Hospital smoothly after 18 minutes.
Shared bicycles are not allowed to enter the hospital.
They had no choice but to park their car in a designated area on the roadside and walk into the hospital with their bags.
At 8:23, Yu Xiangwan and Fu Xiaoxue followed Yu Zhiming to the large office of the Qi Yue Medical Research Center.
Yu Zhiming pushed the door open and found that Zhou Mo had arrived.
Unexpectedly, there was a potted plant on his desk with lush, thick, and verdant leaves.
"Zhou Mo, good morning! Is this potted plant?"
"Good morning, Doctor Yu! This is a succulent plant called Jade Plant. It's my welcome gift to you."
"Hello, Sister Yu!"
"This is your beautiful and smart niece..."
After a few words, the three women started chatting cordially, and Yu Zhiming had to pack up his things by himself.
Fortunately, the things were not heavy and had been sorted out. Yu Zhiming only needed to take them out of the backpack and put them into the locker and desk drawer according to categories.
After finishing it in two or three minutes, Yu Zhiming looked at his fourth sister, Xiaoxue and Zhou Mo who were all smiling sweetly.
"Fourth sister, Xiaoxue, it's time for you to leave."
Yu Xiangwan took the backpack from Yu Zhiming and chuckled at Zhou Mo, saying, "Zhou Mo, once we're familiar with the surroundings of our residence, we'll invite you to visit us."
Zhou Mo smiled and replied "Okay".
After seeing off Yu Xiangwan and Fu Xiaoxue, Zhou Mo looked at Yu Zhiming's dark circles and said with a smile, "Doctor Yu, how many days will it take for your bed-susceptibility problem to heal?"
Yu Zhiming touched his lower eyelid and said vaguely: "I'm new here, and I need to adapt to everything. It will take some time."
He looked at the beautiful potted plant that was thriving and said politely but distantly, "Zhou Mo, thank you for the potted plant."
"It's just that I'm not very good at growing these plants. I can even kill a cactus."
Zhou Mo smiled sweetly and said, "Doctor Yu, don't worry about it. Just appreciate it."
"I'll take care of it for you."
Since Zhou Mo said so, Yu Zhiming couldn't refuse her feelings anymore.
Reciprocity is the norm.
Yu Zhiming, who was quite particular about this, gave Zhou Mo a small can of dried sweet potatoes.
"This is made by my mother. Although it is not very sweet, I think it tastes good."
"Try it as a snack..."
Zhou Mo took the dried sweet potato with a smile, opened the lid of the glass bottle, took out a small piece, and put it in his mouth...
Seeing that the guy's jaw muscles were tensed from exerting so much force, Yu Zhiming quickly added, "It's a bit dried out by the sun."
"It's a bit tough and not easy to bite..."
Zhou Mo took out the dried sweet potato from his mouth and saw two neat little tooth marks on it, but it had not been bitten through.
She smiled awkwardly and said insincerely, "Hehe, not bad, good stuff, just right for slimming down your face."
After a pause, Zhou Mo asked with some embarrassment and anticipation, "Doctor Yu, do you have any plans tonight?"
"If not, can I buy you a meal?"
