“Do you think Elder Chen might want to take Doctor Gu as his disciple?”
Soon after, Doctor Zhou and Doctor Lu gathered again to discuss. They both saw the admiration in Elder Chen's eyes for Gu Jia Ning, it was impossible to hide.
“I think it’s very likely.”
“Such an excellent person is welcomed everywhere.”
In fact, Elder Chen did admire Gu Jia Ning very much. He had previously heard of Gu Jia Ning's talent in medicine. Yesterday, he witnessed how she treated the injured. To be honest, some of the seriously injured people, even if they were in his hands, could be saved, but the treatment would certainly not be as good as Gu Jia Ning's.
Elder Chen could describe her every rescue with two words: "Perfect".
It was as if she had practiced countless times beforehand, finally becoming proficient to the point of perfection.
If Gu Jia Ning could hear Elder Chen's thoughts, she would definitely say: Elder Chen, you're absolutely right. In the space, I did treat patients thousands of times until I completely mastered it, without a single mistake. I truly reached the level of perfection. Only then would the system judge her assessment as qualified.
In the afternoon, Elder Chen was not in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department, so Gu Jia Ning finally didn't have to talk so much.
It wasn't that she didn't want to talk; she didn't mind popularizing and teaching some medical knowledge that didn't yet exist, but she did most of the talking. After several hours, her throat couldn't take it anymore.
Now that she had some free time, Gu Jia Ning finally had time to check what rewards she received for the day and night of rescue in the disaster area.
There were many material rewards. Almost every time she treated someone, she received material rewards, including clothing, food, shelter, and transportation. Looking at all the materials in her space, Gu Jia Ning felt like she could open a small shop.
Regarding points, she initially had over 1700 points. This time during the rescue, the system rewarded different points depending on the severity of the injuries. After deducting the points she spent on purchasing skills, she now had 2590 points left.
She was very satisfied with both the material rewards and the points.
After tidying up, seeing that no one was around, Gu Jia Ning was about to enter the space to read when she heard footsteps, seemingly heading towards her office.
Soon, Gu Jia Ning saw a young woman, appearing to be in her twenties.
She seemed a little timid, her gaze towards Gu Jia Ning was cautious, yet hopeful.
“Are you Doctor Gu?” Qin Rou asked timidly.
“Yes, I am. Sister-in-law, is there something wrong with you?”
“I, I…” Hesitating for a while, Qin Rou finally mustered the courage to speak. “Doctor Gu, I want to ask you to help me conceive a child.”
Gu Jia Ning: ?!
Someone was already looking for her treatment to conceive a child so soon?
“I can try. Tell me the details first.”
Encouraged by Gu Jia Ning, Qin Rou slowly spoke.
It turned out that Qin Rou had married Qi Yuancheng, a platoon leader, through a blind date. Although it was a blind date, they rarely saw each other after marriage, but their life was still manageable, and their relationship was always good over the years.
Last year, Qi Yuancheng became a battalion commander, and she was finally able to join him.
Life in the Northwest Military Region was truly wonderful, and their relationship deepened rapidly.
But one thing had always been a burden on their hearts.
They had been trying to have a baby for over five years since their marriage…
“Actually, a few months after we got married, I was pregnant, but the baby was naturally miscarried soon after.”
“After that, we haven't been able to conceive.”
Her mother-in-law thought she couldn't have children, so she planned to adopt one of her younger brother-in-law's three sons, saying it was to continue the family line and have someone to look after them in their old age.
But Qin Rou didn't want to.
If she and her husband could have children, their own child would be better, of course.
Besides, Qin Rou didn't like her younger brother-in-law's three children. Those children were spoiled by their grandparents and their father, and they were arrogant and ill-mannered, always swearing, which made Qin Rou, an elementary school teacher, very uncomfortable.
And…
Before they came to join the army in her husband's hometown, her father-in-law and mother-in-law were still okay to her, but her younger brother-in-law's family, including those children, were not kind to her. They always pushed the housework onto her while they shirked their responsibilities. Sometimes, when her husband sent her packages with crackers and other snacks, those children would take them without permission.
They would even secretly mock her, saying that since she couldn’t have children, what right did she have to eat those things.
Qin Rou was almost furious when she heard that.
Of course, that wasn't the most important reason. The main reason was that Qin Rou had accidentally overheard a conversation between her younger brother-in-law's family.
They were lazy and had no savings or jobs, and their children didn't like to study. But they treated Qin Rou and Qi Yuancheng's property as their own.
They had planned to adopt their third son and said that after the adoption, they would get their hands on the property. When Qin Rou and Qi Yuancheng got old, they would abuse and abandon them.
Qin Rou felt a chill run down her spine. She wouldn't want those children even if they were given to her for free.
Later, Qin Rou told her husband what she had heard.
Fortunately, A Cheng believed her.
Not long after, he was promoted to battalion commander and brought her to join the army.
After that, they tried even harder to have a baby, but still, no child came.
After listening to Qin Rou's story, Gu Jia Ning felt very emotional, but she could only say that this kind of situation, along with her younger brother-in-law's family, existed in any era.
“Doctor Gu, I heard from Baihe in my building that you cured her, so I want… I want you to check if there’s anything wrong with me, and if there is, I’m willing to be treated.” Qin Rou's eyes were full of determination.
Gu Jia Ning nodded. “I see. Please sit down, let me feel your pulse.”
“Yes, yes.”
As Qin Rou sat down, Gu Jia Ning's fingers rested on Qin Rou's wrist, and her eyes, like a scanner, began to scan Qin Rou's body.
However…
The scan was finished in a few seconds.
Two minutes later, Gu Jia Ning finished feeling the pulse.
However, Gu Jia Ning's brows furrowed slightly. Seeing this, Qin Rou immediately became nervous.
“Doctor Gu, is my condition very serious?”
“Could it be… incurable?”
At the thought of this possibility, Qin Rou's eyes turned red, and tears almost fell.
Gu Jia Ning didn't answer her question but asked another one, “You came alone today. Where is your husband?”
