Li Chu turned his head and took a deep look at Ding Qiunan, with a smile on his face.
Sister Li Qin stood nearby. When she heard Ding Qiunan say this, she couldn't bear it anymore. She covered her mouth with her hands and couldn't stop her tears from flowing down.
Wang Ziwen sighed, put his arm around her shoulders, and patted her.
Li Chu got up and helped Ding Qiunan up, and they sat on the sofa again.
After crying for a while, Li Qin felt better. She held Ding Qiunan's hand and started chatting again, becoming even more intimate.
The two of them sat there until almost nine o'clock before leaving.
Li Chu was riding a bicycle with Ding Qiunan. The breeze was gentle and the heat of the day was gone.
Ding Qiunan sat behind and hugged Li Chu's waist tightly, stroking Li Chu's abdomen up and down with her little hands, and poked with her fingers. She felt something was wrong, and she took back a hand and touched her own abdomen, stupidly.
He asked: "Li Chu, why do you have small pieces of meat here, and why don't I have it here? And it's still hard here."
Li Chu's head was already full of black lines when Ding Qiunan touched it with his hands. Now after listening to Ding Qiunan's questions, he felt like tic-tac-toe marks appeared on his forehead.
He patted the little hand that was still touching his abdomen: "If you plan to go home with me tonight, just keep touching it."
Ding Qiunan took his hand back with a "shua", and laughed naively: "It's getting late, take me back to the dormitory quickly."
Li Chu sighed helplessly. What should I do if I find a silly wife?
When he arrived at the archway of the hospital dormitory area, as soon as he stopped, Ding Qiunan immediately ran out and stopped two or three meters away.
Li Chu was stunned for a moment: "Why are you running?"
"I'm afraid you'll be angry."
He smiled helplessly: "What's there to be angry about? Well, go back and rest!"
Ding Qiunan cautiously came over: "If you bear with me any longer, time will pass quickly."
Li Chu reached out and touched her face, smiling lovingly: "Okay! Go in, I'm going back."
"Wait a minute," Ding Qiunan stopped him, reached out and took out the wooden box containing the jewelry from his bag: "Take this back first and put it at home. I don't have room to put it in my dormitory."
Li Chu took it and put it in his satchel, waved his hand, got on his bicycle and left.
Ding Qiunan watched him go further and further away, her eyes shining brightly in the night.
The next morning.
Not long after I got to work, a young man in a white shirt hurried into the clinic: "Hello, Dr. Li."
Li Chu looked up at the person who came and felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
"Dr. Li, my surname is Wang. We met last time when you treated Director Chen's mother."
As soon as he said this, Li Chu thought about it.
"Hello, Secretary Wang, what are you doing here today?" Director Chen, the deputy director of the General Office of the Government Affairs Council, this person should be his secretary.
Secretary Wang saw that Li Chu knew who he was, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Doctor Li, it's like this. Director Chen's mother woke up this morning and felt that she had chest tightness and shortness of breath. She also kept coughing, and the phlegm she spit out contained...
There are bloodshot eyes. Director Chen sent me to pick you up and take a look at you. See if you can..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Chu already understood the meaning, thought for a while, and stood up: "Wait a moment, I'll go talk to our director."
He said something to Ding Qiunan and walked out of the office.
"Secretary Wang, please sit down first. Dr. Li will be here soon." Ding Qiunan saw that he had been standing and asked him to sit down.
"Oh, it's okay. You are busy with your work. I will just wait."
Soon Li Chu walked in, picked up his satchel, and put the acupuncture needles, alcohol and cotton wool in it: "Let's go, Secretary Wang."
"Doctor Li, please, I drove here. It's in the courtyard."
When he reached the door, Li Chu turned around and said, "Qiu Nan, I haven't come back before lunch, so you go to the cafeteria and eat yours first without waiting for me."
Ding Qiunan nodded: "Okay, I understand, you can go ahead."
Secretary Wang heard the conversation between the two and glanced at Ding Qiunan cryptically.
A jeep was parked there in the courtyard. As soon as Secretary Wang got in the car, he drove off.
The place is not that far away. It only takes ten minutes to drive there. There are soldiers standing guard at the entrance of the alley and cars are not allowed to drive in.
When entering the alley, even what Secretary Wang had brought with him was not acceptable. Li Chu still underwent an inspection because the acupuncture needles in his bag had to be explained for a long time. Finally, he called Director Chen's home before he was allowed to bring them in.
"It's hard to enter a high-end mansion," Li Chu sighed secretly.
There are all single courtyards in the alley, the doors of every house are closed, and no one can be seen walking back and forth in the alley.
"If you live in a hutong without any sense of life, why do you still live here? It's such a waste. When I can buy and sell houses privately in the future, I will definitely buy a few." Li Chu drooled when he looked at the single-family houses in the hutong.
.
We arrived within two minutes of walking. Secretary Wang knocked on the door, and Director Chen opened the door himself.
"Dr. Li, thank you for your trip." Director Chen opened the door and said when he saw Li Chu.
Li Chu smiled faintly: "Director Chen, you're welcome. I'm a doctor. It's inconvenient for patients. I'm just here for work."
This is a small courtyard with one entrance. There are two wing rooms on the left and right sides. There are three main rooms, and the main room is in the middle. The patient is in the room on the left side of the main room.
Director Chen led Li Chu directly in.
The old lady was sitting leaning on the bed. Li Chu was still coughing when he entered, and his face was sallow.
There are two women in the room, one should be Director Chen's wife, whom I met last time in the hospital, and the other is younger, probably in her thirties.
Hearing the sound, everyone in the room looked over. Director Chen said, "Dr. Li is here. You two, please get out of the way and let Dr. Li take a look."
The two people beside the bed quickly moved out of the way.
Li Chu walked over, nodded to the two of them, and sat on the stool next to the bed.
The old lady's eyes were not working well. Li Chu walked to the bed and the old lady could see clearly: "Xiao Li, I am going to trouble you again with my old bones."
"Old lady, it's my job to see and treat patients. Just cooperate with me. It's no trouble. Come on, I'll take your pulse."
After a while, Li Chu put away his hand and said to the old lady: "I'll give you a few injections and you'll have a good sleep. You'll be fine when you sleep. There's no big problem."
The old lady fell asleep soon after the needle was inserted and stopped coughing.
Li Chu signaled everyone in the house to leave.
Director Chen led several people to the main room. Secretary Wang made everyone a cup of tea and then went out.
Li Chu picked up the cup and took a sip of water, thought for a while and said: "Director Chen, I don't know what happened yesterday, but the old lady's condition today is due to her being too excited, and she didn't get a good rest last night.
"
After a pause, he continued: "Director Chen, you know the old lady's physical condition. If this happens again..." Li Chu shook his head.
