Chapter 639 Fulfilling Father’s Last Wishes

 The village where Yu Zhiming grew up is Lishuiji, located more than 40 miles northeast of the county.

The Yu family is located at the west end of the village.

Yu Zhiming drove the bed truck and led the way, passing through a flat open space of thousands of square meters formed by the perennial alluvial accumulation of a small river, and then crossed a cement bridge close to the river.

Then, we turned west and drove for hundreds of meters, finally stopping in front of the yard of two lonely bungalows.

It is said to be lonely because this empty space is the yard of two adjacent bungalows.

Unlike the places I drove past before, the houses and yards were all connected closely together.

Yu Zhiming got out of the car and introduced to Qing Ning, who looked curious and appreciative, "This is my home."

"This courtyard to the west is my eldest sister's house."

"The large open space we passed just now is a market, which is held on the first and sixth days of the lunar calendar."

"The seven-eight-meter-wide small river we passed by is the Lishui River I once told you."

"Don't look at the current water level. In summer, there will be heavy floods, which can flood the entire market."

"My house has been flooded two or three times in the past."

Yu Zhiming pointed to a large forest of willows and poplars not far to the west.

"That's the forest where I used to practice smashing cicadas."

After Yu Zhiming finished the quick introduction to Qing Ning, Yu's parents, Yu's mother, the eldest sister's family, Yu Xiangwan, Zhang Bai, and the second brother-in-law all got out of the car.

Door locks for door locks, door locks for moving things.

Yu Zhiming took Qing Ning’s hand and entered his yard.

The yard made of lime bricks is not too small, measuring seventy or eighty square meters, and the main house is a twelve-meter-long cement bungalow.

There are also two east annex rooms.

To the west is a shed for raising chickens and ducks, but now there are no chickens and ducks, and there are a lot of dead branches and leaves, as well as two tree root knots.

The toilet is in the southwest corner.

Dad Yu, who also came to the yard, began to assign tasks.

"It's almost nine o'clock, Xiaobo, you drive your aunt's car and take them to visit the grave. The things for visiting the grave are in the car."

"Xiaoxue, those Spring Festival couplets are sent to others."

"Others clean the house and tidy the yard."

Mother Yu added: "Although it is a bit cold today, there is sunshine, so take out the bedding to dry it first."

"Check again to see if the water pipe of the water pump is frozen..."

As Yu's parents and Yu's mother continued to explain, Fu Xiaobo had already started the Baojun SUV and drove Yu Zhiming, Qing Ning, Yu Xiangwan and Zhang Bai to visit the grave.

The village's collective cemetery is on a high ground on the left bank about one thousand meters down the Shunlishui River.

The village also built a simple cement road, only two or three meters wide, to go directly there.

They arrived at the village cemetery smoothly and found the graves of Yu Zhiming's grandparents. They first cleaned up the dry weeds and placed fish, meat, fruits and other tributes on the offering table.

Then, Yu Zhiming drew a circle around the tomb and began to light incense, pour wine, light cigarettes, and burn paper...

Yu Zhiming babbled a few more words.

For example, grandparents, we are here to see you.

This is my girlfriend Qing Ning, and that is the fourth sister’s boyfriend Zhang Bai...

After burning the paper, under the leadership and demonstration of Yu Zhiming, several people kowtowed four times to the grave, set off a bunch of firecrackers, packed up their things, and returned by car.

The whole process of visiting the grave took less than twenty minutes.

In Yu Zhiming's view, this is where form outweighs content and is just a formality.

"Zhiming, have you never met your grandparents?"

Yu Zhiming hummed and said, "My fourth sister and I both passed away before they were born."

Qing Ning snorted and said, "No wonder, the person visiting the grave was so perfunctory and without any emotion."

Yu Zhiming laughed and said: "I worked hard to fulfill my filial piety during my lifetime. After my death, I only do this for others to see."

"There's no need to act."

At this time, Xiaobo, who was driving, slowed down the car.

Because, there is an oncoming car.

It's an Audi q3.

There was a small road that was at most three meters wide, so Xiaobo turned the wheel on one side off the small road and drove into the field on the side of the road.

As long as the other party also drives the wheel on the other side off the road, the two parties can drive on the wrong side.

However, the other party's car did not do this. Instead, it occupied the center of the road and drove straight over.

Xiaobo was angry.

He did not continue to give way, but stopped the car.

When the distance between the two cars was only ten or twenty centimeters, the Audi car on the other side finally stepped on the brakes.

The next moment, three menacing tall young men in their twenties and thirties got out of the Audi.

There is also a young woman with exquisite makeup.

Yu Zhiming, who was sitting in the back seat, saw the three of them, lowered the rear window and stuck his head out.

"Three brothers of the Hu family, are you going to cause trouble?"

Yu Zhiming's words directly caused the leader of the Hu family to bend down, take two quick steps, laugh with him, and come over.

"It turns out it's really you, Dr. Yu."

The boss of the Hu family kept raising his hands and saying: "Happy New Year! Happy New Year! In front of you, Dr. Yu, even if you lend us some great courage, we wouldn't dare to cause trouble."

Yu Zhiming snorted lightly and said with disgust: "Get out of my way quickly, I'll go back in a hurry!"

"Yes, yes! Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

The boss of the Hu family turned around and ordered: "Second brother, get out of the way quickly and let Dr. Yu's car go by first..."

The Audi drove directly into the field and cleared the road.

Seeing the Baojun car driving away, the young woman asked with some confusion: "Is this Dr. Yu very powerful?"

The third child of the Hu family said hey: "Second sister-in-law, this Dr. Yu is not only great, he is also a strange person in our village."

"He was blind when he was a child. He did not regain his sight until he was thirteen years old. He was admitted to medical school just four years later."

"Now, he works as a doctor in a well-known large hospital in Binhai. It is said that he is very powerful."

After a pause, the third son of the Hu family added: "Dr. Yu is very accurate at throwing stones. When his eyesight is bad, he can hit the eldest brother and the second brother. They are scared to death..."

The boss of the Hu family raised his hand and slapped the third child on the back of the head with an unusually loud slap.

"What are you talking about?"

"I'm not afraid, I'm grateful, do you know?"

"Your sister-in-law encountered great risks when she gave birth to your niece. Doctor Yu solved the problem promptly."

"We must be grateful as human beings..."

Just after ten o'clock in the morning, when Yu Zhiming returned to the small courtyard, he found that there were a few more neighbors visiting his home.

Yu Zhiming briefly greeted his neighbors and began to post Spring Festival couplets.

Qing Ning enthusiastically helped Yu Zhiming.

When pasting Spring Festival couplets, first paste them on the door.

Qing Ning looked at the large calligraphy on the door in her hand and said, "Zhi Ming, dad's calligraphy is so beautiful, why are your calligraphy so ugly and unique?"

Yu Zhiming glanced at this guy.

"My dad said it himself. He started practicing calligraphy when he was seven or eight years old. He has been practicing calligraphy for more than 50 years now."

"How can I have time to practice calligraphy?"

“It’s enough to be able to write words so that others can see them clearly and recognize them.”

Yu Zhiming added: "Nowadays, we type on computers and mobile phones, and our signatures are all electronic."

"It is estimated that in a few years, students' high school entrance examinations and college entrance examinations will also be electronically answered, and will no longer be written examinations."

Qing Ning sighed and said: "In terms of technology, electronic answering questions for the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination should be achievable now, right?"

Yu Zhiming mused: "Technically, there should be no difficulty. But if there are changes, it will involve too many aspects. The country wants to maintain stability..."

While chatting, the two posted the Spring Festival couplets on the gate and prepared to enter the yard. An Laotou Le electric car parked at the gate.

Two people got off the old man's car.

One is a young man who looks to be in his mid-twenties, holding a box of local brand Liyangchun liquor.

There is also a pregnant woman with a big belly.

"Doctor Yu?"

"I am!"

Yu Zhiming replied, noticing that the two people neither knew each other nor looked familiar, and asked: "What's the matter?"

The young man put a box of wine on the ground and introduced himself: "Doctor Yu, I am Ding Wei from Lijia Village, a neighboring village."

"This is my wife Niu Fang, nine months pregnant."

"We are planning to have a caesarean section in the next two days and would like to ask Dr. Yu to check the baby."

Yu Zhiming was a little confused and asked: "It's only nine months?! Why do we need to rush to have a caesarean section?"

"Is it an adult? Or a fetus? There is a problem?"

Ding Wei explained with a bitter look on his face: "Dr. Yu, there is nothing we can do about this."

"My dad has terminal gastric cancer."

"He has only a few days to live. His biggest wish now is to see the child born, otherwise he will not close his eyes even if he dies."

"In order to fulfill my father's last wish, I had no choice but to have an early caesarean section."

Hearing this, Yu Zhiming was a little angry.

"Nonsense. If the difference was within ten days, it would be okay. But for the old man's so-called last wish, he had a caesarean section one month early. You are risking your child's life and health, do you know?"

Qing Ning couldn't help but criticize and said: "It seems to me that you are being foolish and filial, do you know that?"

The pregnant woman remained silent.

Ding Wei's face turned red when he was told that, and he explained: "Dr. Yu, I also know that it is inappropriate to do this."

"It's just that my father worked hard to raise me up, provided me with education, bought me a house, and married me a wife."

"Just when I started to have some ability to give back, my dad was diagnosed with gastric cancer."

"Originally, after my dad was diagnosed with gastric cancer, he could live a few more years through surgery and active treatment."

"But he was afraid of hurting me, so he kept hiding his illness until he couldn't hide it anymore."

Ding Wei wiped the tears from his eyes with the back of his hand.

"Now my father only has this wish. As a son, how can I bear to watch him leave with regret?"

He wiped his eyes again and said with a choked voice: "Doctor Yu, please check the child."

Yu Zhiming was silent for a moment and asked: "Since you have decided to have a caesarean section, why do you need me to do a pregnancy test?"

"I insist on it!"

The pregnant woman finally spoke up and said: "I can agree to an early caesarean section, but there is a prerequisite to ensure that my son is not in danger."

"I know you are a medical expert, but your skills are not comparable to those of the gynecologists in the county hospital."

"Doctor Yu, please."

At this moment, Yu’s mother’s voice sounded, “Lao Wu, if it’s not too difficult, please help me.”

"It's all the pitiful hearts of parents in the world."

"Yes, Mom!"

Yu Zhiming responded and said to the young couple: "Come home, I will check your child..."

On the sofa in the main room, Yu Zhiming conducted a detailed examination of the fetus in the pregnant woman's belly.

He discovered a big problem.

"The development of the baby's lung function is somewhat delayed."

"If you have a caesarean section at this time, I think you need at least half a month of careful care in the incubator..."
