Chapter 648: One Person Succeeds
After returning to his home in Yu Shuiwan in the county town, Yu Zhiming simply washed up and went into the soundproof bedroom to rest.
He slept until after four in the afternoon.
When he got up and left the bedroom, Yu Zhiming was surprised to find that in addition to Qingning, who had gotten up earlier than him, there was another person at home.
"Qi Xin, why are you here?"
Qi Xin, who was gnawing on a duck leg, stood up with a pitiful expression and said, "Brother Zhiming, I have no place to go again, so I came to you for help."
Yu Zhiming took the cup of warm water handed to him by Qingning and took two big gulps to make himself more awake.
"What does it mean to have no home to go to again?"
Qi Xin made a bitter face and gestured with her hands, saying, "My dad's face was so long, and the atmosphere was so depressing. I couldn't stay in that house for even a moment."
"My mom went on a trip abroad with that guy."
"Sister Momo has a busy day."
"It's New Year's Day, you can't leave me alone in an empty house, right?"
"I have nowhere else to go in Binhai, so I came to you, Brother Zhiming, who has extraordinary medical skills, is incredibly handsome, and is incredibly kind."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyes and looked at Qing Ning.
"Where is the teacher?"
Qing Ning replied softly, "I've already called Director Qi, and he said he'll have to trouble you again."
Yu Zhiming drank all the water in the cup, went to the bathroom to free up some memory, washed up briefly, returned to the living room and sat on the sofa.
"Qi Xin, how did you know my home address?"
Qi Xin said with a smile: "I got off at the high-speed rail station and went to the county hospital first. A pretty and lovely fairy like me would have been told by someone as soon as I asked."
Yu Zhiming snorted softly and threatened, "How dare you take a high-speed train thousands of miles away? Aren't you afraid of being kidnapped by human traffickers and taken to the mountains to be married to someone else's stupid son?"
Qi Xin said with a smile: "Don't worry, human traffickers also want to celebrate the New Year. There are only a few people sitting in the entire carriage."
She picked up a salted duck wing.
"Brother Zhiming, do you want to eat it? This duck tastes really good."
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "Eat less. It will be dinner time in another hour."
He looked at Qing Ning and asked, "Do you know approximately when Mom and Dad will be back?"
Qing Ning replied, "I just spoke to Fourth Sister on the phone. She said a lot of people came to pay New Year's greetings today, including some relatives."
"We're going to have dinner at my eldest sister's house, but she'll pack a portion for us."
"If you're hungry, let's get something to eat first."
Qing Ning asked again, "Are you hungry? There are still a lot of leftovers in the refrigerator. Can I heat up a portion of your favorite Zheluo for you?"
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry yet."
Qi Xin continued, "Brother Zhiming, before coming here, I went to the No. 1 Municipal Hospital to visit Wen Ling."
"She's recovering well and has been moved out of the ICU and into a regular ward. She even asked me to wish you a happy new year and express her gratitude on her behalf."
Yu Zhiming let out a soft "oh".
Qi Xin chirped again, "Brother Zhiming, there were only ten people in the high-speed train car I took when I came here."
"One of the male passengers suddenly burst into tears. He was crying so hard and it was heartbreaking."
"Everyone in our car went over to comfort him."
Qing Ning guessed, "Did a close relative pass away?"
Qi Xin nodded gently and said, "He said his father passed away suddenly. He also said that he didn't go back home this Spring Festival because he was accompanying his wife to Binhai for medical treatment."
"This morning, his father was sitting on the sofa watching TV after breakfast when he suddenly fell to the side and could not be saved."
Yu Zhiming whispered, "Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases."
Qi Xin put on a sympathetic expression again and said, "That man also said that his wife had ovarian cancer and it had metastasized."
"He cried and said that life was really too hard and he felt like he couldn't hold on any longer."
Qing Ning also sighed and said, "I just saw a saying recently. Maybe this is what it means: a hemp rope breaks only at the thinnest part, and misfortune only finds the unfortunate."
"Brother Zhiming..."
Qi Xin showed a flattering smile and said to Yu Zhiming: "I also think this person is quite pitiful."
"I heard from my dad that you, Brother Zhiming, are leading a study on the treatment of advanced cancer. Even if a cure isn't achieved, the effect of prolonging life will be very good."
Yu Zhiming speculated, "So, you stepped forward again and took it upon yourself to bring me a cancer patient?"
Qi Xin said with a guilty look on her face: "Brother Zhiming, I'm not a child anymore, how could I be so ignorant?"
"I just told that person that you have a cancer treatment program at Huashan Hospital and asked him to inquire about it. Perhaps his wife could use it."
Yu Zhiming snorted twice in obvious disbelief.
Qi Xin chuckled again and said, "Brother Zhiming, I mentioned you, and two other people in the carriage started talking about you."
"They say you are so young yet you possess extraordinary medical skills. You can diagnose any disease simply by touching it."
"You are praised to the highest level in the world, practically no different from the gods of the past."
Yu Zhiming said with a hint of pride, "That's how rumors are. They always tend to exaggerate. We have to learn to be selective when listening to them."
Qing Ning looked at Yu Zhiming with his tail raised, trying not to laugh, and then she heard her cell phone ringing.
She took out her cell phone and was stunned when she saw the caller ID.
"Zhiming, it's Qiao Lei calling."
When Yu Zhiming heard the name of his former assistant again, he felt a sense of unfamiliarity.
He nodded slightly.
Qing Ning answered the call and said politely but distantly, "Qiao Lei, Happy New Year. What's going on?"
"Ms. Gu, Happy New Year! You should be with Dr. Yu now, right?"
Qing Ning hummed lightly.
Yu Zhiming could tell that Qiao Lei's voice was a little unclear, and there was also some noise of whispering.
This should have been a call made at the dinner table.
Besides, I've already drunk a lot.
Qiao Lei's voice came from the phone again, "Miss Gu, it's like this. I'm back home now. There's a cousin of mine who's been married for three or four years and still hasn't gotten pregnant."
"My cousin turned thirty this year."
"My family is a little worried. We've been seeing doctors and taking care of our bodies over the past year, but to no avail."
"I thought of asking Dr. Yu to check it out."
Qing Ning looked at Yu Zhiming and saw him nod again, so she said to the phone, "No problem, ask your cousin and her husband to make an appointment with Zhou Mo after the New Year."
"Miss Gu..."
Qiao Lei hurriedly said, "I have a presumptuous idea. The distance between here and Dr. Yu's hometown is not far. It only takes three hours to drive there at most."
"It's all vacation now, and everyone has time."
When Qing Ning heard this, she knew that it was not unfair for Qiao Lei to be replaced, as he had no sense of propriety at all.
She said calmly, "The reason Dr. Yu turned off his phone is because he didn't want to be disturbed by work and wanted to spend a quiet Spring Festival with his family."
"That's it."
After saying this, Qing Ning hung up the call without waiting for the other party to respond.
This made Qi Xin, who was standing by, feel uneasy.
"Well, well, shouldn't I have come?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "Don't think too much about it. Your sister Qing Ning said that just to refuse the job request."
"We have a large family, so having you here won't make a big difference. Just stay here and come back to Binhai with us."
As soon as Yu Zhiming finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Qing Ning ran to open the door and found her second brother-in-law outside, carrying a large three-layer food box used for restaurant delivery.
"Dinner is here!"
The second brother-in-law brought the lunch box into the restaurant and saw Qi Xin!
"Who is this little beauty?"
"Teacher Qi Binhai's little daughter, Qi Xin, was bored at home, so she came all the way here to visit."
Yu Zhiming gave a brief explanation, and then he saw his second brother-in-law take out several very exquisite dishes from the food box.
"Green lemon, this is our Jishui's famous Confucius Mansion dish."
My second brother-in-law introduced the names of the dishes one by one.
"These are the famous specialties, such as First-class Tofu, Braised Sea Cucumber with Scallions, First-class Hot Pot, Shark's Fin with Three Shreds, Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea and Dishes with Arhats, Emerald Shrimp Rings, Stir-fried Pork, and Poetic Ginkgo Nuts."
Yu Zhiming was a little surprised. "Second brother-in-law, you ran dozens of kilometers to buy these vegetables?"
My second brother-in-law said calmly, "Qing Ning has come here with great difficulty, so you should definitely try some of our local specialties!"
"The food is a little cold, let's microwave it first."
While the food was heating up, my second brother-in-law said to Yu Zhiming, "At noon, Secretary Peng of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission came to talk to me."
"He told me that the deputy director of the Health Bureau had indeed uncovered some violations of laws and disciplines and was under formal investigation."
"And Director Hao said he's temporarily using conservative treatment to see how things recover."
Yu Zhiming let out a soft "oh".
The second brother-in-law chuckled again, "Old Five, Secretary Peng also said that I made a contribution in this case on New Year's Eve."
"Any meritorious service will be rewarded. Secretary Peng said that after a while, I will be promoted and transferred to the County Public Security Bureau."
The second brother-in-law sighed, "I know clearly in my heart that my promotion and transfer this time are entirely because of you, Lao Wu. This is what they call one person's success."
"I had already accepted my fate and planned to work at the grassroots level for the rest of my life until retirement, but I never expected that I would see the light at the end of the tunnel thanks to you."
"Thank you, Lao Wu."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "You can also say that this is a promotion you deserve, brother-in-law, for your hard work and dedication."
"Obey the law and do your job well."
The second brother-in-law laughed and said, "Old Five, don't worry. We can still uphold the bottom line of being a human being and working..."
My second brother-in-law did not stay for dinner, but hurried back to have dinner with his parents, wife and children.
Yu Zhiming tasted these famous dishes of the Confucius Mansion one by one and nodded.
This taste is quite good.
"Qing Ning, my second brother-in-law's gift of this Kongfu dish reminded me of something. There's not much to see or do in our county, but there are still places worth visiting around here."
"Tomorrow, shall I take you out for a walk?"
Yu Zhiming then said to Qi Xin, "You can follow as well."
Qi Xin smiled happily.
Qing Ning chuckled and said, "No need."
"It's winter, not only is it cold, but the bare landscape in the north is also not very pretty."
"Anyway, you'll have a mandatory vacation in the future, so we can go traveling and wander around."
"This Spring Festival, Zhiming, you should have a good rest and spend some time with your family..."
