Returning to his home in Yushuiwan, the county town, Yu Zhiming simply washed up and went into the soundproof bedroom to rest.
He slept until four o'clock in the afternoon.
After getting up and leaving the bedroom, Yu Zhiming unexpectedly discovered that besides Qing Ning, who got up earlier than him, there was one more person at home.
"Qi Xin, why are you here?"
Qi Xin, who was gnawing on the duck legs, stood up and said with a pitiful expression: "Brother Zhiming, I am homeless again, so I have come to join you."
Yu Zhiming took a glass of warm water from Qing Ning and took two big sips to make himself more awake.
“What does it mean to be homeless again?”
Qi Xin grimaced, gesticulating with his hands and said, "My dad's face is so long, and the atmosphere is so depressing. I can't stay in that home for a moment."
"My mom and that guy went abroad for a trip."
"Sister Momo has a busy day."
"You can't let me stay alone in an empty house during the Chinese New Year, right?"
"I had nowhere to go in Binhai, so I came to seek refuge with you, my brother Zhiming, who has extraordinary medical skills, is extremely handsome, and is extremely kind."
Yu Zhiming rolled his eyelids and looked at Qing Ning.
"Where's the teacher?"
Qing Ning replied softly: "I have already called Director Qi, and Director Qi said that I will trouble you again."
Yu Zhiming drank all the water in the glass, went to the bathroom to release some memory, washed briefly, returned to the living room and sat on the sofa.
"Qi Xin, where did you know my home address?"
Qi Xin said with a smile: "I got off the train at the high-speed rail station and went to the county hospital first. For a pretty little fairy like me, someone told me as soon as I asked."
Yu Zhiming made a soft sound and threatened: "You dare to take the high-speed rail to travel thousands of miles away, and you are not afraid of being abducted by human traffickers and taken to the deep mountains and forests to be the wife of someone's stupid son?"
Qi Xin said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, traffickers also want to celebrate the New Year. There are only a few people in the whole 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's time to have dinner in another hour."
He looked at Qing Ning and asked, "Do you know when your parents will be back?"
Qing Ning replied: "I just had a phone call with my fourth sister, and she said that there were a lot of people coming to pay New Year's greetings today, and some relatives also came."
"We'll have dinner at eldest sister's house, but we'll pack it up and bring it back to us."
"If you're hungry, let's get something to eat first."
Qing Ning asked again: "Are you hungry? There are a lot of leftovers in the refrigerator. Can I heat up your favorite Zheluo?"
Yu Zhiming shook his head and said: "I'm not hungry yet."
Qi Xin spoke again: "Brother Zhiming, before I came here, I went to the First City Hospital and visited Wen Ling."
"She is recovering well. She has been discharged from the ICU ward and moved to a regular ward. She even asked me to wish you New Year's greetings on her behalf and express her gratitude."
Yu Zhiming said softly.
Qi Xin chirped again: "Brother Zhiming, the high-speed rail carriage I took when I came here only had ten people in it."
"A male passenger suddenly burst into tears. He was crying out of sadness."
"We all went over to comfort him."
Qing Ning guessed: "Has a close relative passed away?"
Qi Xin nodded lightly and said: "It was said that his father passed away suddenly. He also said that because he accompanied his wife to see a doctor in Binhai, he did not go back this Spring Festival."
"This morning, after breakfast, his father was sitting on the sofa watching TV. He suddenly leaned to the side and could not be rescued."
Yu Zhiming said softly: "Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases."
Qi Xin showed another sympathetic expression and said: "The man also said that his wife had ovarian cancer and it had metastasized."
"He cried and said that these days are really too hard and he feels like he can't stand it any longer."
Qing Ning also looked sad and said: "I just saw a saying recently. Maybe this is that hemp ropes are only cut at the thinnest places, and bad luck only finds the poor."
"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, brother Zhiming, you are leading a research study on the treatment of late-stage cancer, saying that even if a cure cannot be achieved, the effect of extending life expectancy is very good."
Yu Zhiming guessed: "So, you stepped forward again and brought me a cancer patient on your own initiative?"
Qi Xin said with a guilty look on his face: "Brother Zhiming, I am not a child anymore, how can I be so ignorant?"
"I just told that person that you have such a cancer treatment program at Huashan Hospital and asked that person to ask more about it. Maybe his wife can use it."
Yu Zhiming snorted twice in obvious disbelief.
Qi Xin chuckled again and said: "Brother Zhiming, I mentioned you, and there were two other people in the carriage talking about you."
"You are young but your medical skills are superb. You only need to touch your hand to know all kinds of diseases."
"I praise you for being the best in heaven and earth. You are no different from the gods of the past."
Yu Zhiming said with a hint of pride: "Rumors are like this. They always like to exaggerate. You have to learn to be selective and listen."
Qing Ning looked at Yu Zhiming with his little tail raised, holding back a smile, and then heard her cell phone ringing.
When she took out her phone and looked at the caller ID, she was startled.
"Zhiming, it's Qiao Lei calling."
When Yu Zhiming heard the name of his former assistant again, he felt a little strange.
He nodded slightly.
Qing Ning answered the call and said politely and distantly: "Qiao Lei, happy New Year, what can I do for you?"
"Ms. Gu, happy New Year! You should be with Dr. Yu now, right?"
Qing Ning snorted lightly.
Yu Zhiming could tell that Qiao Lei's voice was a little unclear, and there were also some murmurs of whispering.
This should have been a call made at the wine table.
Moreover, I have already drank a lot.
Qiao Lei's voice came from the phone again, "Miss Gu, it's like this. In my hometown, I have a cousin who has been married for three or four years and is still not pregnant."
"My cousin will be over thirty this year."
"My family is a little worried. I have been going to the doctor in the past year for physical recuperation, but it has no effect."
"I'm thinking about asking Dr. Yu to check it out."
Qing Ning looked at Yu Zhiming, saw him nodding slightly again, and said to the phone: "No problem, let your cousin and her husband make an appointment with Zhou Mo after the New Year."
"Miss Gu..."
Qiao Lei hurriedly said: "I have a presumptuous idea that the distance between my place and Dr. Yu's hometown is not very far. It only takes at most three hours to drive there."
"Nowadays it's all holidays, and we all have time."
When Qing Ning heard this, she knew that Qiao Lei was not unfairly dismissed and had no sense of propriety in dealing with others.
She said in a calm tone: "Dr. Yu turned off his phone because he didn't want to be disturbed by work and wanted to spend the Spring Festival with his family in an ordinary way."
"That's it."
After saying this, Qing Ning hung up the call without waiting for the other party to respond.
This made Qi Xin on the side feel restless.
"This, this, shouldn't I come?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said: "You don't have to think too much, your sister Qing Ning said that just to refuse the job request."
"Our family has a large population, and you are not too much. Just settle down and come with us back to Binhai."
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 the door, carrying a large three-layer food box for restaurant delivery.
"Dinner is here!"
The second brother-in-law carried the food box into the restaurant and saw Qi Xin!
"Who is this little beauty?"
"Teacher Binhai Qi's little daughter Qi Xin was bored at home, so she came all the way to visit."
Yu Zhiming gave a brief explanation and saw the second brother-in-law taking out several very exquisite dishes from the food box.
"Green lemon, this is our famous Confucius dish in Jishui."
The second brother-in-law introduced the names of the dishes one by one.
"This is first-grade tofu, sea cucumber roasted with green onions, first-grade hotpot, three-threaded shark's fin, Eight Immortals crossing the sea to make Arhats, emerald shrimp rings, hot roasted pork, Shili ginkgo, etc., they are all famous specialties."
Yu Zhiming was a little surprised, "Second brother-in-law, you specially traveled dozens of kilometers to buy vegetables?"
The second brother-in-law Yun Danfeng said lightly: "It's hard for Qing Ning to come here, you must try our specialties!"
"The dishes are a little cold, please microwave them first."
While the dishes were heating, the second brother-in-law said to Yu Zhiming again: "At noon, Secretary Peng of the Political and Legal Committee came to talk to me."
"He told me that the deputy director of the Health Bureau did find some violations of laws and disciplines and has been formally investigated."
"Director Hao also said that we will conduct conservative treatment temporarily and wait and see how the recovery goes."
Yu Zhiming said softly.
The second brother-in-law said again: "Lao Wu, Secretary Peng also said that I made a contribution to the New Year's Eve case."
"If you have merit, you 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 the so-called enlightenment by one person."
"I had already accepted my fate and would work at the grassroots level all my life until I retired. I didn't expect that you would take advantage of me."
"Lao Wu, thank you."
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said: "This can also be said that you, brother-in-law, deserve the promotion because of your accumulated experience."
"Abide by the law and work hard."
The second brother-in-law chuckled and said: "Lao Wu, don't worry, we can still keep our bottom line in life and work..."
The 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 Confucius dishes one by one and nodded.
The taste is quite good.
"Qing Ning, the second brother-in-law's gift of Kongfu cuisine reminds me that there is not much to see or do in our county, but there are still places to go around."
"Tomorrow, shall I take you out for a walk?"
Yu Zhiming said to Qi Xin again: "You can also follow."
Qi Xin is smiling happily.
Qing Ning chuckled and said: "No need."
"In the middle of winter, not to mention the cold, the bare scenery in the north doesn't look good."
"Anyway, you will have a compulsory vacation in the future. By then, we will go traveling and wandering around."
"This Spring Festival, until tomorrow, have a good rest and spend time with your family..."
