Restarting life by going to the countryside to support medical work

Chapter 538 Family
After the car director finished his call and hung up the phone, Li Yancheng let out a sigh of relief, and without waiting for Jin Zhihai to speak, he picked up the phone again and dialed.

This time he called Director Gao.

The main purpose of making this call was to ask for instructions on the issue of arresting Du Zhengyi. After the request, he still needed to prepare other materials for reporting.

Du Zhengyi has other titles as well. Even if he has violated the criminal law, he cannot be arrested casually. The procedures must be followed.

After hanging up the phone, he told Jin Zhihai, "Send someone to keep an eye on Du Zhengyi 24 hours a day. Don't let this old guy get away."

"I have just sent someone over and arranged a shift."

"Yeah." Li Yancheng nodded and looked down at the watch on his wrist. It was already past five o'clock.

"Okay, I'm going back."

"You should go back and rest quickly. I'm worried that you might collapse here. If that happens, your Luo Min will tear me apart and eat me."

Jin Zhihai waved his hand with some disgust, signaling him to leave quickly.

"Haha, don't worry, I won't fall even if you fall here."

"That's right. Your physical condition is getting...how should I put it, stronger?"

Speaking of physical condition, Jin Zhihai was very puzzled. Even though the two of them no longer lived in the same yard, he would occasionally go over to exchange moves with Li Yancheng on weekends.

If they could still fight back and forth ten years ago, ten years have passed and now he is completely unable to resist.

He really couldn't understand how this guy looked. Isn't it said that as people age, their physical fitness deteriorates? He himself could clearly feel that his current physical condition was completely incomparable to that of ten years ago.

But his good brother didn't seem to be affected by the years, and his body was no different from ten years ago. At least that's how he felt.

Regarding the topic of physical fitness, Li Yancheng had no way to respond. He couldn't say that it was because he traveled through time and space, right?

If he really said that, I don't know whether others would believe it or not, but they would definitely treat him as a lunatic.

"Young man, you need to practice more."

"Get out of here, go back quickly." Jin Zhihai pushed his good brother towards the office door with some disgust.

"Can you drive? Never mind. You'd better not drive. I'll send someone to take you back."

"Alright, I'll go down first and you can have someone go directly to my car."

Li Yancheng did not insist that he had no problem driving. He also felt dizzy. Although there were not many cars on the road, it was better to be safe.

……

At six o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yancheng appeared in the alley parking lot where the Luo family lived.

"dad……"

The police officers from the brigade sent him to the entrance of the alley and left with shocked looks on their faces.

As a criminal policeman, he certainly knew who lived in this alley, but he did not expect that his leader had such a powerful background. No wonder he could hold a high position at such a young age.

Sometimes, only when you are capable enough and have some help can you really rise to the top.

Declining the guard's offer to help drive, Li Yancheng drove to the parking lot by himself. As soon as he parked the car and got out, little Xiaoyu appeared out of nowhere, ran over and threw herself into his arms.

After all, he hadn't rested for three days and two nights. Under normal circumstances, even if two Xiaoyu rushed over, it wouldn't be a big deal. But today, after hugging his daughter, he took two steps back before he could steady himself.

"Why are you here, little girl?"

After hugging his daughter who rushed over, Li Yancheng asked with some surprise.

"Hey! I missed my dad. I was having dinner and suddenly I felt that my dad should be back, so I ran out!"

Hey! This girl...

Li Yancheng walked home with his daughter, who was clinging to him and refusing to get off, feeling somewhat amused and helpless.

He knew that his daughter had a very strong perception ability, but he was sure that the reason why the girl ran so fast today was that she didn't want to eat.

These two little guys, Huansheng and Xiaoyu, must have inherited their father's super perception, and even enhanced it.

Normally he could only sense danger, but he seemed to be able to sense these two children, whether good or bad.

"I see you don't want to eat. Let me guess, is the chef at grandma's house making noodles today?"

This girl has never liked eating noodles, but there are exceptions. If the noodles are made by Li Yancheng, she won’t be picky, but if they are made by someone else, then she won’t accept them.

"Hehe!" Having her little thoughts revealed, Xiaoyu buried her little head on her father's shoulder feeling a little embarrassed.

"Dad, I don't like eating noodles made by others."

"You! I think the mixed noodles made by Master Cai are delicious."

"But I only like to eat what my father cooks."

"Then I'll make some for you again when we get back, okay?"

"Thank you dad!"

Li Yancheng never forces his children to eat something they don’t like, and always makes whatever they like to eat.

Even though Luo Min disliked him for spoiling the child, he remained the same.

"Dad, when can my brother and I come back to live in our house?"

"It can be tonight. We can go back later, okay?"

"That's great! We can go home now!" Xiao Xiaoyu clapped her hands happily.

"What? Are you in such a hurry to go home? Don't you want to play with brother Mingrui and brother Mingzhi?"

"Hmm..." When talking about her second uncle's older brother and younger brother, Xiao Xiaoyu frowned in some confusion.

"Dad, can we bring brother Rui and brother Mingzhi back to our home as well?"

"I'm sure there's no problem with that, but you need to talk to your second uncle and second aunt yourself.

Also, are Mingrui and Mingzhi willing to come to our house?"

"Brother Rui and the others are willing to go. I'll go talk to my second aunt."

As she spoke, Xiaoyu struggled to get out of her father's arms and fell to the ground.

This little girl was a person who did what she said. After she got down to the ground, she started running towards home. When she reached the door, she raised her arms and started knocking on it.

"Hey, Xiaoyu, you're back!"

The person who opened the door was the security guard who lived in the front yard and was responsible for Mr. Luo's safety.

When he opened the door, he saw Xiao Xiaoyu who had just run out not long ago, and said with a smile.

"Hello Uncle Wang, my father is back too, he's right behind us."

After saying this, Xiao Xiaoyu stepped over the threshold and ran to the backyard like a gust of wind.

Hearing Xiaoyu's words, security guard Xiao Wang was slightly startled. He quickly opened the door, walked out and looked to the east, just in time Li Yancheng had walked over.

"Secretary General, you... No, it's time to change your address. Director Li, you're back!"

Xiao Wang walked down the steps at the door and raised his right hand to salute Li Yancheng.

This was the first time Li Yancheng came back after being transferred to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the Luo family’s security guards were still a little uncomfortable with the way they were addressed.

"Why are you being so polite?"

Li Yancheng returned the greeting with a smile.

"You are the chief, so etiquette cannot be abandoned. Director Li, you don't look well. Did you not get enough rest?"

"I have barely slept since I woke up on the morning of the 12th. I feel like I could fall asleep while standing."

"It's been... three days and two nights. Don't stand here any longer. Go to the back and rest."

"Okay, I'll go in first."

"Hey, Director Li, slow down and watch your step."

"It's okay"

Li Yancheng waved his hand nonchalantly and walked up the stairs.

As soon as he entered the front yard, his wife heard from Xiaoyu that her husband had returned. She put down her bowl and chopsticks and hurried out. As soon as she passed the hanging flower gate, she saw her husband walking around the screen wall. When she saw his face again, her mouth immediately turned down. After eleven years of marriage, it was the first time she saw her husband, who was always full of energy and vigor, look so bad, and even his steps were a little unsteady.

The stubble on his chin has grown longer. No wonder my daughter just said that her father's beard pricked his face.

"I saw it was fine yesterday, why is it like this today?"

Luo Min walked over quickly, held her man's arm, and said with a distressed look on her face.

"I didn't get enough rest. I was so sleepy that I couldn't even open my eyes."

"You didn't get enough rest? I see you haven't slept at all these days, right?

When I left yesterday, didn’t we agree to take a rest at night? "

"Last night we were arresting people and interrogating them, and I was anxious to get back as soon as possible after closing the case."

"You! You are the leader now, and you have to charge in the front. What do you want the people under you to do?"

"Haha, my wife is right. I promise I will never do this again."

"loquacious!"

Luo Min rolled her eyes at her man coquettishly, then helped him walk to the backyard.

"As soon as your daughter came back, she pulled the second sister-in-law to talk in private. What did she want to do?"

"She wants to go home and take Mingrui and Mingzhi with her. I asked her to discuss it with her second uncle and second aunt herself."

"They go to school tomorrow, why would they go there tonight?"

"You're just a kid, if you want to let it go, just let it go."

"You can send them off tomorrow morning."

"If those two kids come with us, we just need to leave a little earlier in the morning. It will be fine."

Mingrui and Huansheng are about the same age. They were both born in 1970, but their birthdays are two months apart. When school started in September, both children were in the fifth grade, but they were not in the same school.

Mingzhi, the second child in Luo Yang's family, is only five years old this year, two years younger than Xiaoyu. He is just starting preschool this year and is in the same school as his brother.

No one in the school knew that Mingrui and Mingzhi were Mr. Luo’s grandsons. Before, Mingrui always walked to school alone. Of course, there would always be security personnel secretly escorting him.

The fall semester started some time ago, and Mingzhi also went to his brother's school to attend preschool. After September 1st, the two brothers walked to school together.

In the backyard, Mr. Luo was not at home. He went to the local area to inspect work yesterday.

This was the first time that Mr. Luo went to the local level as the first deputy general manager after the meeting. He did not choose to go to the traditional strong provinces, but went to the southeast coast.

If the economy wants to develop and if they want to attract foreign investment, coastal cities must give full play to their geographical advantages.

For a traditional industrial powerhouse in the past few decades, it is now difficult for the city to continue to develop due to its geographical environment and other factors.

Today's traditional strong provinces (cities) all have many state-owned enterprises with good performance, but the development of state-owned enterprises has actually reached a bottleneck, unless enterprise reform is carried out.

But reform is not that simple.

It is said that any reform will cause pain, because reform means leaving your comfort zone.

The reform of state-owned enterprises in the last life was not just about labor pains; it was like scraping out the poison, and it was a continuous process.

Many economically strong provinces (cities) of that era became sluggish during that reform and have been unable to find the next path to development for decades.

The people above had already discovered the lack of follow-up development of state-owned enterprises.

To put it bluntly, there is no money. Many factories now still use machines from the 1950s or even before the liberation, and the products they produce are not competitive at all internationally.

If we can’t sell goods, we can’t earn foreign exchange. Without foreign exchange, we can’t buy advanced production lines from abroad, which creates a vicious cycle.

Ultimately, we have to resort to exchanging market for technology, which is really a helpless move.

As soon as he stepped into the backyard, Li Yancheng saw his mother-in-law standing at the door of the main house, with Luo Yang beside her. Both of them looked at the hanging flower gate leading to the front yard.

Seeing that his mother-in-law was actually waiting for him outside the house, Li Yancheng quickly broke away from his wife's hand that was supporting his arm and took a few quick steps.

"Mom, why don't you sit inside and stand here?"

"It's okay. I'm not too old to move. With you taking care of my body, I feel that my health has been getting better and better in the past few years."

The old lady said with a smile.

She is a doctor herself. Although she specializes in obstetrics and gynecology, she also knows a little about internal medicine and surgery. She knows exactly what her body condition is like.

The old lady now likes this young son-in-law more and more. He has strong personal and work abilities, and his future is definitely bright.

The key is to treat your own daughter really well!

Although the Luo family's daughter would not be bad no matter who is replaced, the old lady can still tell whether she is truly kind or has other intentions.

The old lady also knew that many people outside said that the reason her son-in-law could hold a high position at such a young age was because of Mr. Luo.

It was the old man who pushed this son-in-law to success.

But the old lady actually knew very well that her husband was not the driving force behind her son-in-law's promotion, but rather a hindrance.

Because as early as two years ago, the higher-ups had already considered transferring Li Yancheng from the Social Affairs Bureau to take up a more important position.

For example, the director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Public Security Headquarters, or the director of an important department under the Supervisory Commission, both positions are at the bureau level.

But he was stopped by Mr. Luo at that time.

Two years ago, Li Yancheng's household registration age was only 36 years old. Although there were people of this age at the director-general level, and even higher, these people had come from the battlefield and fought for their future with their lives.

His current situation is completely different, and he is also Mr. Luo's son-in-law. In order to avoid suspicion, the old man reached out to stop him.

But in fact, the reason why the higher-ups wanted to promote Li Yancheng at that time had nothing to do with the old man, it was entirely because of his personal ability.

The old man's obstruction turned his original real position into a nominal one, and he only enjoyed the treatment of a director-general level official, which was equivalent to making him walk two more years.

Before stopping him, Mr. Luo specifically went to Li Yancheng to tell him that he was worried that his actions would cause misunderstanding by his son-in-law. Fortunately, Li Yancheng didn't care about it at all.

He doesn't care, but the old lady does.

Because of this incident, the old lady's nose and eyes looked different when she saw her husband during that period of time.

In the old lady's words, the leaders above value the personal ability of their son-in-law, not your face, Old Luo. Why are you blocking his way to promotion? Just because you are his father-in-law?
Don't forget, you are just the father-in-law, not the biological father.

It is said that a man of integrity fears no slander. When Li Yancheng was not yet your son-in-law, he was willing to sacrifice his own future for your sake. How come after becoming your son-in-law, he didn't get much benefit, but his future was blocked.

Over the years, you have been able to work your way up from the last-ranked vice president to the third place today (Note: it was seven or eight years ago when the old lady said this). Do you dare to say that Dacheng’s contribution was not involved?

Why do you think you need your family to sacrifice for you because you are so noble?
At that time, the old lady was so upset by Mr. Luo that she sat there and couldn't utter a word.

Finally, after hearing about this incident, Li Yancheng came out to comfort his mother-in-law, saying that this was also his idea, otherwise he would be too busy at work and have no time to spend with his family.

In this way, the old lady's anger was calmed down a little.

"Dacheng, I know you are an excellent doctor, but the saying "a doctor cannot heal himself" is simply not true for you. But even so, you still have to take care of your body. Don't take it lightly just because you are young. Look at your face.

Let’s not talk about this anymore. I’ll ask Master Cai to make you some porridge. After you drink it, you can stay here tonight.”

"I can't stay here anymore, Mom. I won't drink the porridge either. I really have no appetite. Xiaoyu just told me that she wants to go home and bring Mingrui and Mingzhi with her. I agreed.

We will go back home after picking up the children, and I will go to sleep and send them to school tomorrow morning."

"This little girl, why did she come back and whisper to her second aunt? It seems she is talking about this. It's okay to take the children to your place, but these boys are naughty. Will they disturb your sleep?"

"Yes, Dacheng, our mom is right. My two boys are very naughty. Let them go to your house another day. You should go back and have a rest." Luo Yang on the side also advised.

"No, no, grandma, dad, and my mom have all promised Xiaoyu to let us pass."

Well, their conversation was interrupted by a few little ones who just came in. Mingrui and Mingzhi ran over, one hugged their father's legs and the other hugged their grandmother's legs, shaking them and acting coquettishly.

"Go, Mingrui and Mingzhi, pack your things, we're leaving now."

Seeing this, Li Yancheng waved his hand and said with finality.

"Oh, thank you, uncle! My mother has already helped us pack our school bags."

"Thank you, uncle-in-law." Xiao Mingzhi also shouted along with his brother.

What else is there to say? Luo Yang could only shake his head helplessly, and pulled the two boys to his side and reminded them again, telling them to be obedient and not to lie in bed tomorrow morning, etc.
