"It's okay, the two together won't make you make a mistake." I said with a smile.
The old lady looked at me in surprise. Only then did I realize that I had said the wrong thing and almost revealed my secret. I hurriedly said, "Tong Yao and I were joking."
"How much money is in this card?" the old lady asked.
"Not much. You will know it when you go to the mall to buy things. I don't know if the patient gave it to me. There won't be many. The patients nowadays are very smart." I said, apologizing to Lin Yi in my heart.
.
The old lady took it over with a smile, "This kid is so sensible. Well, if you go home tomorrow, you can take me to say hello to your parents. Please ask them to come to our Jiangnan as a guest when they have time."
"Okay, Auntie." I nodded and bowed.
"Yao Yao, please send Xiao Feng off." The old lady said with a kind face.
Before going out, I took off the plastic bag on my feet, and then said to Tong Yao: "Please help me put it in the trash can."
She glared at me and went inside with the plastic bag. I opened the door and went out to wait for her, and heard the old lady inside saying to Tong Yao: "Yao Yao, I like this kid Xiao Feng, don't pick any more."
"I know, Mom!" Tong Yao was saying in a very impatient tone. I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Tong Yao came out after a while. I couldn't help but move my right arm. I immediately woke up and went to see her quietly. Fortunately, she didn't notice my involuntary movement. She was staring at me, "Feng Xiao,
Why are you behaving so well today?"
I was suddenly surprised, "Isn't it enough to behave well?"
"Are you stupid? We are pretending, but you behave so well. What should I do if my mother really likes you? Now it's better. She is very satisfied with the things you bought, can tell jokes, and is so hygienic.
The kitchen is also tidy. It's over. My mother told me that if I don't fall in love with you, she will settle the score with me! Feng Xiao, what are you doing? What do you want me to do?" She was furious.
typical.
I understood immediately and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "If I had known earlier, I would have performed worse. Didn't you remind me yourself?"
"Hey! I didn't think it through. In fact, it won't work if your performance is poor. In that case, she will ask me to find another one." She sighed.
I thought so, and then smiled and said: "Tong Yao, the easiest way is for you to find a real boyfriend as soon as possible. In this case, your mother will not say anything."
"Feng Xiao, I was just about to ask you. You and your ex-wife, I'm sorry, maybe I shouldn't ask you," she said.
I said, "It's okay. Just say whatever you want."
"Are you and your ex-wife in a free relationship?" she asked.
I was startled and then replied: "That's right."
She asked me in surprise: "How do you call it true? I mean, do you feel that way about her? You should understand what I mean, right? It's the feeling of love."
I was stunned again, and after a while I answered: "You know, when I married her, she had already been married once. At that time, I felt that I still felt that way about her, but now I realize that I
It turns out that what I really like is her past, the person she was in middle school, because she gave me the taste of love at that time."
"Did you fall in love so early?" she asked.
I shook my head, "I have a crush on her."
She nodded, "I understand. In fact, you still have love for her. What about her?"
"That should be the case," I said. "She told me later that she actually knew that I had a crush on her when we were in middle school. Hey! Who knew, who knew she would leave this world like that."
"I understand. In fact, you have always been dissatisfied that she was ever married, which is why your life is so chaotic. Is that so?" She asked again.
I have analyzed this question myself, so I nodded and said: "Yes. I should have such an idea in my subconscious. After all, each of us hopes that our love or marriage will be perfect. This is everyone's truest heart, right?
?It’s just that some people are willing to give up this kind of perfection because of a certain advantage of the other party. Of course, some people are helpless.”
"Yes." She said, sighing softly, and then asked me: "So Feng Xiao, what do you think of your current wife?"
I felt a pain in my heart and immediately said to her: "Tong Yao, can we not talk about this matter?"
"I'm sorry." She said, "Feng Xiao, I very much agree with what you just said. When it comes to love, each of us is actually pursuing perfection. Me too. I hope that the half of my future will be the one I really like.
He must be worthy of my love. Of course, he must also love me. I will never give in to my marriage. Rather than doing this, it is better not to get married."
"Tong Yao, it seems that you are a person who pursues perfection. But I have to remind you that pursuing perfection too much can easily lead to tragedy, because there is no such thing as true perfection in this world. As a human being, there is no such thing.
Perfect." I said.
"I at least want to find a man who can touch my heart, right?" she said.
I nodded, "That's true. By the way, Tong Yao, isn't there a man who has ever touched your heart?"
"Feng Xiao, thank you for today. I wish you and your family a happy Spring Festival." She suddenly said this to me.
I seemed to understand in my heart, so I waved goodbye to her.
After I got in the car, I felt so tired. I couldn't help but think to myself: Why do I always feel tired? When I thought about it carefully, I realized that my tiredness had nothing to do with work at all. It was all messy things. It was even more incredible.
The thing is, in just two days yesterday and today, I actually pretended to be the boyfriend of two women.
Now I am starting to worry: How will Tong Yao explain to her mother next? She can really escape the first year of junior high school, but it is difficult to escape the fifteenth year.
It's none of my business, I have completed today's task. I said to myself in my heart, and suddenly recalled the tremor in my heart when Tong Yao hugged my arm, and there was a feeling in my heart.
A strange feeling. She is very beautiful, and very beautiful. I explained and defended myself in my heart.
Yes, she is indeed beautiful and unusual, because she is a police officer and has a heroic temperament that is different from other women.
When I got home, my father called me to sit on the sofa, where my mother and Azhu were watching TV. My father said he wanted to have a good talk with me. Thinking of what I had done in the past two days, I suddenly felt worried.
I went to sit down properly, thinking about how to respond to some questions my father might ask next.
Father spoke, "Feng Xiao, why are you so busy all day? You are not an official, you are just an obstetrician and gynecologist, why do you eat out every day?"
"It's all about friends," I said.
"Is this usually the case?" he asked.
"Absolutely. Patients treat me to dinner, people at work have things to do, pharmaceutical companies, medical device companies treat me, classmates get together. Anyway, there are many times when I eat out. I can't refuse." I replied.
"Then when do you read professional books? When do you spend time with your family?" My father asked again.
I was immediately speechless.
"Doctors in the hospital are like this now. It's good to read books in their free time at work." At this time, Azhu said, "Uncle Feng, Feng Xiao can't help it. He is now the deputy director of obstetrics and gynecology in their hospital.
There are many people looking for him, especially those from pharmaceutical companies and the like, who often invite him to dinner, as well as patients’ family members.”
"Will they give you a red envelope?" the father asked.
"Sometimes," I answered. I didn't tell the truth, because patients' families always give red envelopes when they treat guests.
"That would be a mistake!" my father said seriously.
I was a little impatient and said, "Dad, this is the trend now. In fact, I don't care about other people's red envelopes, let alone eat that meal. But the patient's family members should understand the mood? They always feel like inviting the doctor to a meal,
Doctors will try their best to take care of patients after giving them red envelopes. This is human nature."
"That's true. But you should hand the red envelope to the hospital's disciplinary inspection department afterwards. This way you won't make any mistakes," said the father.
Azhu was laughing next to me, and I replied: "It is now customary for doctors to accept red envelopes. Every hospital and every doctor accepts them. If I hand over the red envelope, everyone will hate me."
The father was startled for a moment, and then sighed: "What's going on? Are upright people being attacked by a group of people?"
"This is how this society is. In fact, doctors receiving red envelopes and taking drug kickbacks are nothing. Compared with the corruption of those officials, this is nothing. This is also called relying on the backer to depend on the mountain and the water. Otherwise, with our little
How can I support myself with my salary? Foreign doctors and lawyers are all high-paid people, and our country is unscientific when setting salary standards," Azhu said.
"No wonder medical treatment is so expensive now. It turns out that you, the doctors, get the kickbacks. Ah Zhu, do you get the kickbacks too?" Mother asked.
"We are an auxiliary department, where are the rebates coming from? But the hospital will give us a commission for our examination items. This part of the commission is a bonus." Azhu replied.
"Our country can't do this. Medical treatment is too expensive now, and it's the common people who are suffering. Fortunately for us, we can reimburse for medical treatment and hospitalization, but what about the farmers? What about those laid-off workers? Hey!" my father sighed.
"Dad, you are wrong. The reason why medical treatment is expensive is not entirely caused by the kickbacks our doctors receive from medicines." I said. In fact, I also feel the same way about this issue, and I have also analyzed this issue before. "Dad,
Do you know the formation and composition of drug prices? You don’t know, right? Let me tell you. Drugs must go through initial animal experiments and clinical experiments before they are produced. If the results of the experiments are qualified, they will be reported to the Ministry of Health. Below is the Ministry of Health
A certain department of the company will issue a license approval document after expert review and deems it can be produced and sold. The next step is for the drug research unit to negotiate a price contract for the new product with the pharmaceutical factory. The first thing the pharmaceutical factory will do next is to submit a price request to the state.
The department declares the ex-factory price, wholesale price and retail price of drugs. The ex-factory price is the purchasing relationship between the pharmaceutical factory and the pharmaceutical company, the wholesale price is the price relationship between the pharmaceutical company and the hospital, and the retail price, needless to say, is between the hospital and the patient.
Relationship, that is, the final price.” (To be continued)
