Chapter 231： Old Chu

Chapter 231 Chu Lao

Under Xu Shiyan's exaggerated and artificial howls, everyone looked at the siblings from suspicion to sympathy and pity.

These people can live on without some money and things. These two brothers and sisters are so poor, what will they do in the future?

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, and returned to their seats.

Xu Shiyan howled twice again, and then, under the persuasion of others, returned to his seat with a mournful face.

Just at this time, the train arrived at another station, a few people got off the train, and then a large group of people came up.

Xu Shiyan saw it, and quickly asked Xu Shiqin to sit in his side to make room for the people who came up later.

The siblings stood next to each other, talking in a low voice.

"Brother, you are really good, you can pretend anything?

You were exactly the same as his mother Chen Deyong just now. "

Xu Shiqin lowered his head and did not dare to raise it, muttering softly.

"Well, I learned from her.

No way, didn’t you see that several people in the carriage lost money and things? That man must have done it last night.

If I don't come here, they will have to suspect us. "

No way, in order not to arouse suspicion, you have to play tricks and roll around.

Although it was a bit exaggerated and looked like a fool, the effect was quite good, and Xu Shiyan was very satisfied.

As for those who lost their money and things, they don't deserve sympathy.

Nowadays, it’s so chaotic outside, and I don’t even have this kind of cognition when I go out, and I can sleep soundly on the train, and I deserve it if I lose something.

Xu Shiyan is not someone's parents, so he has no obligation to help them catch thieves.

What's the matter? If he was injured last night because of catching a thief, how many of these people could help him?

There must be kindness, but what is the point of scoring, if you can’t distinguish the situation and send out kindness indiscriminately, if you make trouble, you will lose your life.

It can be said that he is selfish, but first of all, he must be responsible for himself and his loved ones.

This is the responsibility of being a son, a husband, and a father. He will never be reckless and desperate for irrelevant people.

There were many people in the car, the two of them didn't continue talking, they just closed their eyes and squinted.

There were a lot of people coming up at the first two stops, and there were no seats on the bus, and many people were standing.

At 7:30 in the morning, the train entered the terminal station Changchun Station.

Brother and sister Xu Shiyan carried their luggage on their backs, followed the crowd calmly, and left the station.

Going outside, I found an older person to inquire about the way to Bethune Medical University.

Old Chu said in a letter before that he lives in the family area of ​​the faculty and staff of the Medical University.

It's also very close to the affiliated hospital. Qi Yunsheng is also doing an internship in the affiliated hospital now.

The two brothers and sisters took the bus according to their instructions, and went straight to the Medical University Station on Xinmin Street.

When they arrived here, the two of them didn't go directly to find someone, but first found a hotel nearby, and opened a double room with the letter of introduction from the brigade.

The brothers and sisters brought too much money and couldn’t live with others. Even if it cost more money, they had to ask for a separate room.

Most of the tourists who live near here are accompanying their families to see a doctor, so the hotel will take care of this.

The staff didn't make it difficult for Xu Shiyan and his sister, and arranged a room for them simply.

The two of them put away their luggage, changed their clothes, and locked the door with money.

Get out of the hotel, go straight to the family area according to the address written by Mr. Chu in the letter.

Mr. Chu is already seventy-six years old, and he no longer holds a real job in the past two years, but is an honorary principal and honorary dean.

Now that the research group has overcome the difficulties, Mr. Chu doesn’t even bring students with him, but just sorts out medical records at home, reads books and so on.

Xu Shiyan took the letter and looked for it one by one according to the address on the letter. He really couldn't understand it, so he asked someone on the road.

The provincial capital in early November was warmer than Donggang. The siblings still dressed according to the temperature at home, and they were sweating after wandering around for a while.

Fortunately, he finally found Mr. Chu's home, so Xu Shiyan hurriedly knocked on the door.

"Who are you looking for?"

A woman in her forties came out to open the door, and when she saw Xu Shiyan's brother and sister, she asked suspiciously.

"Hello, may I ask if this is Mr. Chu Xuanhuai's home?

We came from Fusong, specially to visit the old man. "Xu Shiyan knew that this person was Elder Chu's nanny.

Elder Chu’s wife died of illness when the accident happened that year. In order to avoid suspicion, the two sons drew a clear line with Elder Chu and sent them to other places.

Later, Mr. Chu was taken back to the provincial capital to resume work. The two sons had already taken root elsewhere and never returned to the Northeast.

So Mr. Chu has been living alone these years, and the nanny is arranged by the school to take care of Mr. Chu's daily life.

As soon as she heard that it was from Fusong, the nanny immediately laughed.

"I know, I know, the surname is Xu, right? Mr. Chu always talked about it, and he said it yesterday, and you may come soon. Please come in."

It should be that Mr. Chu has given instructions in advance, so the nanny has a very good attitude and politely let Xu Shiyan and his sister into the small courtyard.

The houses in the family area are not large.

Although Mr. Chu has a high rank, he is alone and doesn't care much about external conditions, so it's just a small yard and two and a half small rooms.

The yard is well cleaned up. It can be seen that the yard should be full of flowers in summer.

In early winter, the wind was bleak, and there were only a few dead branches and leaves left in the yard.

The nanny led Xu Shiyan brothers and sisters in, "Mr. Chu, the person you have been thinking about is here."

While speaking, he led the two of them into the living room.

The size of the house is not large, the two-and-a-half-room small room is also the kitchen and the nanny's quarters, so the house is a bit crowded.

It is said to be a living room, but it should also be considered a study room. The walls are full of bookshelves, and there are various medical books on them, as well as anatomical diagrams, acupuncture dolls, and the like.

Chu Xuanhuai was born in the family of Xinglin, some of his ancestors were imperial doctors.

He was taught by the elders of his family since he was a child, and he has a profound knowledge in medicine.

However, at that time, the Qing Dynasty perished, warlords fought in chaos, and the country was in a precarious time of national peril, internal and external troubles.

Affected by the atmosphere at that time, Chu Xuanhuai became suspicious of the ancestral medical skills.

resolutely left home, went out to study, and then traveled across the ocean to study western medicine abroad.

Chu Xuanhuai came back from his studies and was entrusted by his superiors to work in Jinling Drum Tower Hospital, secretly serving as our liaison station.

Later, due to work needs, he was transferred to the north and joined North China Medical University to teach.

Finally transferred to Northeast China and became a professor at Jilin Medical University.

It is also because of past experiences, especially studying abroad and working in enemy-occupied areas.

During those days, he became a key target and was sent to Daying Village for reform.

After those years of tossing, the old man's health is not very good.

Although he returned to the provincial capital in the past few years, someone took good care of him, but after all, he was old and his mental and physical strength were not as good as before, so he could only retire.

At this moment, the old man is sitting at the desk, flipping through medical books.

Hearing what the nanny said, he raised his head and glanced at the door.

Through the lens, I saw two familiar faces.

"Yo, it's your brothers and sisters here. I haven't seen you for many years, and your appearance has changed." Elder Chu recognized Xu Shiyan's brothers and sisters, and said with a smile.

"Master, it's me. I'm here to see you." Xu Shiyan came to Elder Chu and saluted respectfully.
