Chapter 68 Thanks
“Thank you, Dr. Liang!”

Qin Huairu also noticed that Dr. Liang’s attitude was different and he was not very friendly to others.

"Bihua, we're leaving first. We'll find you again when the sky clears."

In the corridor, Li Zhiguo greeted Dongxu's wife and they had a good relationship.

"Yeah, I'm almost there too."

Chen Bihua just saw that the cold-faced Doctor Liang actually sent the person out with a smile. Brother Li is really capable.

……

Afterwards, Li Zhiguo took his wife to visit several tourist attractions.

I ate lunch and dinner outside. There are many famous restaurants in Beijing. I ate at every one of them. This is life!

"Brother, just cook for yourself at home tomorrow. We've spent a lot of money today."

Qin Huairu felt distressed again.

"Okay, you're tired after a day of shopping, so just rest at home tomorrow."

As we were chatting, we arrived at the gate of the courtyard.

When I brought the bicycle into the house, I found that there was no one at the front door, which was a bit unusual.

"Huai Ru, hurry up, there must be people watching the fun inside."

Li Zhiguo pushed the cart at a quicker pace. Just as he reached the corridor, he heard a noisy sound. He looked up and saw that everyone was there.

"Li Zhiguo, come quickly, we are waiting for you, there is a bench here."

Mrs. Chen had sharp eyes and started shouting when she saw someone.

"coming!"

Li Zhiguo parked the car on the side and took Qin Huairu over.

Wow, more than a hundred people were all present, and some children were even brought out.

There was a square table in front, with three old men sitting there, which was very similar to the scene of the whole hospital meeting in the drama.

He looked around and found that the Jia family was not there, which was unusual.

"Cough cough..."

Yi Zhonghai held up the teacup and said, "Li Zhiguo and Qin Huairu just came back, so I don't know the situation. Old Yan, please tell them."

"okay!"

Yan Bugui pushed up the frame of his glasses and explained, "Ms. Jia Zhang fell ill this morning and stayed in bed all day. It was not until before dinner time that Aunt Jiang went to the Jia family to look for someone and found that Mrs. Jia Zhang had fainted.

Then we quickly asked the people in the hospital to help take him to the hospital."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Haizhong added: "This is a serious moral character issue. Jia Zhang has a son and a daughter-in-law, but she was sick for a day and no one took care of her. She must be severely punished."

The second master thought that something was happening in the courtyard, otherwise he would not be able to demonstrate his authority to be in charge.

Yi Zhonghai's face changed, and he said hurriedly: "Old Liu, don't rush to judge the matter. Dongxu has to go to work, and Dongxu's wife is out for a pregnancy checkup today. After that, people are going to pick fabrics to make clothes for the family.

I think this is a problem in our community, and the neighbors haven't helped enough. Let's talk about how to prevent similar things from happening in the future."

Li Zhiguo asked in a low voice, "Jia Zhang is really confused. Can eating white flour cause such a big problem?"

"You are so dizzy, you didn't see that Sun Erniang slapped Jia Zhang several times but failed to wake her up.

Later, I and several other middle-aged women carried it out of the compound. Oh, it was really heavy.

If we can’t find a cart, we really can’t take him to the hospital.”

When Mrs. Chen talked about this, there was no sympathy on her face and she was trying to hold back her laughter.

“Could the sweet potatoes be moldy?”

Li Zhiguo boldly guessed that because sweet potatoes cannot be frozen during the winter, otherwise they will go bad, and even if they are kept in the cellar, there will be a musty smell. Jia Zhang was eating winter sweet potatoes.

"It's possible! Anyway, we will notify Jia Dongxu after we send the person to the hospital."

These middle-aged ladies are all smart people, otherwise they would still be waiting for them to pay the money.

Yi Zhonghai found it a bit awkward to see that everyone was whispering but no one was speaking.

"Everyone, we have a tradition of respecting and caring for the elderly in our hospital, and we can't lose it.

I think neighbors can help each other more in the future..."

Before he finished speaking, someone shouted, "Master, you said that Jia Zhang has a son and a daughter-in-law, how can you ask outsiders to help?"

"That's right. We each take care of our own business. The old lady is the only lonely elderly person in this courtyard. Isn't it you, the eldest uncle, who is helping her? Each of us will also take care of her."

"Jia Dongxu knew his mother was ill early in the morning, but he didn't do anything."

Everyone objected, saying, what's the point of helping? Don't create a burden.

Xu Damao suddenly said loudly: "I met Jia Dongxu in the alley on my way to work this morning, and he said in person that Jia Zhang was just pretending to be sick to be lazy. Listen, is this what people say?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the residents couldn't help but talk about it, saying that Jia Dongxu's character was really not good.

Xu Damao stood there with a smug look on his face.

When Li Zhiguo saw this scene, he thought to himself, Damao is good and has made progress.

Seeing the situation getting out of control, Old Yan remained silent, and Old Liu remained silent, Yi Zhonghai had no choice but to shout, "Li Zhiguo, tell me how to deal with this matter."

When everyone heard the name of the bad boy, the scene instantly became quiet.

Yan Bugui was delighted, and stood up and waved, "Li Zhiguo, come over here and sit with the Third Master. You have a quick mind, so give us some advice."

Li Zhiguo didn't want to get involved in this matter. It was obvious that Yi Zhonghai wanted to preach again, and Jia Dongxu couldn't be involved in moral issues.

But it doesn’t matter. The care of the elderly in the hospital still depends on Brother Dongxu.

If Yi Zhonghai really retires, his pension will only be around 60,000 yuan. Before he traveled through time, it had increased to more than 6,000 yuan.

Unless Yi Zhonghai pays the money now, whoever provides for his retirement will suffer in the future.

While thinking, Li Zhiguo had already walked forward and sat next to Yan Bugui.

"Ahem...let me say a few words then.

I was just discussing with Mrs. Chen that Mrs. Jia Zhang's illness is actually a diet problem, and it is most likely caused by her eating moldy sweet potatoes.

My brother Dongxu eats lunch in the cafeteria and occasionally goes to restaurants secretly. Chen Bihua has been eating it since she was a child and has developed drug resistance, so they are fine."

When this was said, everyone was a little dumbfounded. Didn't we say we should help each other? But you just circumvented it.

"Li Zhiguo, go on, how can we prevent similar incidents?"

Yan Bugui pushed the frame of his glasses. When he asked people to come up, he knew that the bad boy would not follow Lao Yi's wishes.

"It's easy!"

Li Zhiguo smiled and said, "Everyone knows that I have stomach problems. I have become a doctor after suffering from the disease for a long time. I have done a lot of research on whether various foods are toxic.

So I suggest that tomorrow, Sunday, I take my third uncle to conduct a routine inspection of every household, checking everything from food to hygiene, and leaving nothing behind that could cause disease.

I will take it away personally, and Third Master will supervise its destruction to prevent similar incidents like the Jia Zhang family from happening again."

"I agree!"

Yan Bugui gave a thumbs up almost immediately, because he knew that Li Zhiguo would take advantage of the opportunity.

"This can't be possible. Let Li Zhiguo check it out. This is not inviting wolves..."

Xu Damao is numb, let’s continue talking about Jia Dongxu’s moral issues.

"No need for that. There's nothing moldy in my house, and the hygiene is pretty good."

Some residents of the Central Courtyard are dumbfounded. It would be better for them to help each other.

"Hey, I have two chefs at home, do I need you, Li Zhiguo, to check?"

Sha Zhu expressed his dissatisfaction, saying that the hygiene of his home was a little bit worrying.

The residents were talking about it and everyone felt uneasy. They felt that Li Zhiguo's visit was not just for inspection.

Li Zhiguo turned to Yi Zhonghai and said, "Uncle, what do you think? Should we call Dongxu back and have him confront Damao face to face and ask him why he ignored his sick mother and asked the street people to seek justice?"

Yi Zhonghai's face changed, "Dongxu is still in the hospital taking care of his mother, this matter must be resolved from the source.

Everyone, please be quiet. We will follow Li Zhiguo's instructions and conduct food hygiene inspections on all households tomorrow morning. This is settled. The meeting is adjourned."

Who knew that Li Zhiguo suddenly said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to get up early tomorrow morning. Why don't we start from now and check the middle courtyard first. It has the most residents and the biggest problems."

"Well, there's still water boiling on my stove. I'll go home first."

Mrs. Chen picked up the stool and ran away, hiding the good things in the house.

"My child is making a fuss, so I'll go back first."

Sun Erniang didn't even take the bench and just ran away.

Then Aunt Jiang, Sister Zeng...

Sha Zhu also ran back home in silence. At this time, his father and uncle were still riding their tricycles outside. He and the rain alone could not defend against Li Zhiguo.

Li Zhiguo immediately shouted, "Huai Ru, go home and rest first. Third Uncle, take your notebook and pen, and start from Sha Zhu's house. As the saying goes, a doctor cannot treat himself. Sha Zhu, as a cook, is the one who is most likely to have problems."

"Hey, I have a notebook and a pen with me."

Yan Bugui was very happy. He thought that he would be able to find some good stuff by visiting every household.

Li Zhiguo thought for a moment, and suddenly said, "Second uncle, you can also be a witness."

"That's good. I am the most fair uncle."

Liu Haizhong quickly stood up and followed him happily.

"Wife, let's go back. We haven't washed the clothes yet."

Xu Damao quickly took his wife and ran away, hiding the valuables. If they couldn't hide them anymore, they sent them to his mother overnight. "Ouch, I need to go to the bathroom."

The second aunt carried little Liu Guangfu and ran to the backyard.

Almost in the blink of an eye, everyone in the hospital meeting ran away, leaving only the deaf old lady with unsteady legs and feet.

"Madam, let me help you back. You have a metal box, don't you? You have to put it away."

Yi Zhonghai was also annoyed. Although he preserved Dongxu's moral character, the price was not small.

"Hey, what are you putting there? My eldest grandson can take it if he likes it."

The deaf old lady said something unusual.

The courtyard was in chaos for a while.

"Bang, bang, idiot, why did you lock the door? Is there something wrong with your family? Are you hiding rotten sweet potatoes and eating them secretly?"

Li Zhiguo really didn't want to take advantage of anything. Although he grew up in the courtyard, there were many households where he had never entered.

This won't do. He must know everything about the courtyard and find out the background of each family.

"Second uncle, come here."

Li Zhiguo called this gentleman up to do the hard labor.

When Liu Haizhong heard this, he immediately took the opportunity and went forward and banged on the door. Fortunately, this was an old house, otherwise it would have been torn apart.

"Silly Zhu, if you don't open the door, I'm going to kick it."

"Come on, come on, Uncle, please stop knocking my door down."

Sha Zhu opened the door with a bitter face. The time was too short and he hadn't hidden everything yet.

"Squeak!"

Yan Bugui pushed open the door on the left, Liu Haizhong pushed open the door on the right, and the two of them rushed in from the left and right.

"Silly Zhu, the hygiene conditions in your home are not up to standard!"

Li Zhiguo knew that Sha Zhu was lazy. Apart from being diligent as a chef, he was also better than him at housework.

"Why didn't you pass it?"

As Sha Zhu spoke, he grabbed the clothes hanging at the end of the bed and stuffed them into the quilt.

Li Zhiguo was too lazy to mention this. It was because there were three grown men living in the room, and they were all sweaty and greasy. Fortunately, the rain did not bring bad weather.

"The cupboards are open, this is the worst-hit area."

Sha Zhu reluctantly opened the cupboard, luckily, some things were hidden.

Li Zhiguo took a look inside. It looked good. There were peanuts, wine, and meat dishes. These must have been reserved for Lao He and Lao Cai, as they had not returned yet.

"Third uncle, please taste these peanuts to see if they have a moldy smell. You can't just look at the appearance. Jia Zhang just doesn't believe in evil, so she got fooled."

"Okay, I have to try it."

Yan Bugui rubbed his hands, walked forward and grabbed a handful, then he tasted one while covering his hand, it was crunchy.

"It tastes good and is fresh."

As Yan Bugui said this, he put the remaining peanuts in his pocket. Isn't this a good deal?

"Oh, of course it's fresh. It was just crisped yesterday."

Shazhu is showing off that there is nothing wrong with the hygiene and food in his home.

Li Zhiguo nodded, picked up the bottle and took a look. Not bad. He didn't drink much. He was living a good life. He got rich by riding a tricycle.

Shazhu's house is really nice. It's the master bedroom in a courtyard house. How could three generations of hired farmers afford this?

Then he looked at the stove. It was really clean. After all, he was a chef.

Sha Zhu stood nearby with a smug look on his face. The only problem with the cleanliness of his house was that the food was fine.

Who knew that Li Zhiguo would say, "Uncle San, please remember this: Sha Zhu's house, Kitchen A, Room D, the overall evaluation is unqualified, and rectification is required within a time limit.

All clothes, bed sheets and quilts must be cleaned before tomorrow evening. Uncle, you are responsible for supervising it."

"I'll make a note of it!"

Yan Bugui got the peanuts and was full of energy.

"Silly, I'll keep an eye on you."

Liu Haizhong found an opportunity to show off and was equally energetic.

"No, it's too much to wash all of this. I don't have time tomorrow. I have to go ride my tricycle."

Shazhu was confused. Aren't you just looking for trouble?

"Wait, there are shoes and socks, including tricycles, all need to be washed. Our courtyard was an advanced courtyard last year, and your family cannot bring shame to the courtyard."

Li Zhiguo just wanted to train Sha Zhu's living ability so that he wouldn't wait for the widow to come to his house every day.

When I came out of Shazhu's house, I saw He Yushui standing at the door next to me, calling out timidly, "Hello, Brother Li!"

“Good rain!”

Li Zhiguo touched He Yushui's head and said with a smile, "Our Yushui is the best behaved child. No need to check him. Go back to the house and have a rest."

"Thank you, Brother Li."

He Yushui went back to the house happily.

Li Zhiguo smiled and went to Sun Erniang's home, an ordinary household that lived on the poverty line and had three children.

"Li Zhiguo, my family really doesn't have much, just this pair of new shoes, which are no worse than Jia Zhang's craftsmanship."

Sun Erniang thought that there would be a large-scale sweep, and this was a proactive act of giving up money to avoid disaster.

Li Zhiguo was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "You misunderstood. I don't take anything from the people! The second and third uncles can testify to this."

Both uncles nodded. Others had indeed not started to take the money yet. It was probably because Lao He had already borrowed the money, so it was not easy to start with Sha Zhu.

"Hey, these straw sandals are nice, who made them?"

Li Zhiguo took down a pair of new straw sandals hanging on the wall, which were nostalgic and fashionable.

"This was made by Old Sun. His ancestors once donated straw sandals to the store. Now no one in the city wants them, so I just hang them here for fun. If you like them, take them. It's a piece of cake."

Sun Erniang thought that Li Zhiguo was taking care of her, after all, they got along well.

"Second uncle, third uncle, this is not worth much!"

Li Zhiguo picked up the shoes and looked at the size. They should fit his feet.

"It's not worth much. The raw material is grass."

Yan Bugui and Liu Haizhong both shook their heads.

"Then I'll take the straw sandals away. They're made of grass and pose a fire hazard. I'll help deal with it."

Li Zhiguo looked around the house again and found that the three children were not afraid of him and were following him around.

"Well, it's OK. Uncle San, please make a note. The kitchen is B-grade and the room is B-grade. It's acceptable. Let's go to the next one."

"okay!"

Yan Bugui also knew that there was nothing he could do with Sun Erniang, so there was nothing he could do. He only planned to get a pair of straw sandals from Li Zhiguo, and a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat.

Afterwards, the three of them went to Aunt Jiang's house. The situation was also not good. A family of four lived in one room.

Li Zhiguo found two sprouted potatoes and took them out.

"Aunt Jiang, potatoes cannot be eaten if they sprout. They contain solanine, which can cause poisoning. I'll take this away.

And all the pots and pans in your house must be cleaned..."

"Uncle Three, remember this: the room is B-grade and the kitchen is C-grade. The kitchen utensils must be cleaned by tomorrow. Uncle Two will be in charge of supervision."

"okay!"

The two uncles nodded, and when they left the house, Li Zhiguo handed the potatoes to Yan Bugui and said, "Third uncle, cut the potatoes into pieces, dip them in some grass ash, and plant them in a pot. Maybe you can earn a dozen potatoes."

"That's good, that's good, you are still calculating!"

Yan Bugui is so crazy, it has to be you, everything can create value.

"This is not a calculation, it's a correct demonstration. Put the pots at my doorstep after you're done. I've been studying planting recently."

Li Zhiguo shook his head, and then went to Sister Zeng's house, and Sister Chen's house... and finally even went to Yi Zhonghai's house.

As a senior fitter, he doesn't have any big items at home, and he doesn't eat any meat, but he has a lot of flour. There is nothing wrong with that.

"A great uncle's house, double A, no problem!"

Li Zhiguo didn't take anything here, but if he didn't get involved with Lao Yi, he would have to bear the moral force. Let Jia Dongxu bear it.

Yan Bugui smiled and said, "Old Yi, you are the first double-A rank in our hospital!"

"Cuiyun is virtuous and keeps the house well-maintained."

Yi Zhonghai praised an old lady for getting double A grade and she looked so proud.

When I came out of Yi Zhonghai's house, by coincidence, I saw Jia Dongxu entering the yard.

"Dongxu, what's going on with your mother?"

Li Zhiguo quickly stopped the man and said, "Stop messing around for so long. It's either food poisoning or something."

"Don't mention it. She ate moldy sweet potatoes and had to stay in the hospital for two days. It cost a lot of money."

Jia Dongxu had a sad face. He had come back to get some clean clothes for his mother, and his wife was still taking care of her.
