Chapter 1353: Tips for Ma Kui
Originally Zhou Chen just wanted to remind Ma Kui to take the child to the hospital, but Ma Kui insisted on taking him away.

The reason was very sufficient. He had no experience in taking care of children and didn't know how to see a doctor. Zhou Chen happened to know something about it, so he insisted that Zhou Chen go to the hospital with him.

There was no other way, so Zhou Chen went to the Railway Hospital with him.

Coincidentally, when they arrived at the hospital, they met Shen Xiuping.

"Doctor Shen."

"It's you, Xiao Zhou. Who is this child?"

Zhou Chen took the initiative to introduce Ma Kui to Shen Xiuping, and then talked about the child's situation. Shen Xiuping looked at him for a while.

"I didn't expect that you, Xiao Zhou, actually know how to diagnose illnesses. You're right. This should be children's eczema. It's not a big problem. I'll prescribe some medicine later. Go back and apply it a few times a day, and it will heal soon."

Ma Kui immediately expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Doctor Shen."

"Why are you being so polite? It's our duty to cure illnesses and save lives. But this child is lucky to have met you. If he had met someone with ulterior motives, he would have been in real trouble."

Shen Xiuping prescribed some ointment, and Zhou Chen sent Ma Kui home again.

This is the first time Zhou Chen has come to Ma Kui's house. Ma Kui's house is not only dilapidated but also very small. However, this kind of house is actually where most people in Northeast China live. Many people live in places that are worse than this.

But for Ma Kui, it was different. After all, he was a criminal policeman before. If he had not been sent to prison later, their house would definitely not be worse than the one where Zhou Chen and his family lived.

Because if Ma Kui hadn't been sent to prison, with his abilities, he would definitely not be just an ordinary criminal policeman after ten years.

For men, the age between 30 and 40 is definitely the most important stage in their career development, and it is also the age group when their careers rise the fastest.

Zhou Chen had met Ma Yan before, but this was the first time he met Ma Kui's wife Wang Sufang, so after Ma Kui's introduction, Wang Sufang warmly invited Zhou Chen into the house.

Zhou Chen sat at home for a while. After Zhou Chen left, Ma Kui's family of three gathered together and looked at the little one they placed on the bed.

"We speculate that this child is an abandoned baby, maybe because of eczema, or it may be due to other reasons."

"Abandoned baby?"

Wang Sufang's maternal love overflowed as she looked at the child with pity.

Ma Yan was very curious and asked, "What is eczema? Is it serious enough to make this child's parents abandon him?"

Ma Kui scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? We just suspect it, but we can't say for sure whether it is an abandoned baby. Doctor Shen said that eczema in children is not a serious disease. Many children will have this condition. It will be cured by applying medicine for a few days."

"Sufang, what I mean is, let's raise this child in our house for a few days, and then send him back when we find his parents. What do you think?"

Wang Sufang immediately said, "Of course I have no objection. To be honest, I really want it."

Not being able to give birth to a son for the Ma family has always been a hurdle in her heart. If Ma Kui had not been imprisoned ten years ago, they would still have a chance, but now, she knows that her body makes this impossible.

Now that a little son has suddenly been born, she feels very happy even if she only raises him at home for a few days.

But Ma Yan frowned and advised: "Mom, your health is not good to begin with. You can't handle taking care of such a small kid."

Wang Sufang didn't care: "What's so hard about it? It's just taking care of a child. It doesn't matter how much effort it takes. Just don't worry about it."

Ma Kui also said: "Yes, it's only a few days, why are you worrying so much? You can use this time to review well and take the college entrance examination again next year."

Without waiting for Ma Yan to speak, Wang Sufang spoke again and drove Ma Yan out of the inner room.

There were only two people and a child left in the room. Wang Sufang looked at the child with great joy, teasing and caring for the child carefully.

Ma Kui was very happy to see his wife so happy. Ten years in prison made him feel that he owed his wife too much. Now seeing his wife happy, he was also sincerely happy.

"I hope the child's parents can come and look for him as soon as possible."

Although he knew that the possibility was very low, he still sincerely hoped that the child was not an abandoned baby, and hoped that his parents would come to find him as soon as possible.

I originally thought that I would only raise the child for a few days, but more than a week has passed and there is still no news from the child's parents.

In the dining car, everyone gathered together to eat lunch and talked about the child again.

"Uncle Ma, the child we picked up last time is still at your house, right?" Wang Xin asked.

"Yes what's the matter?"

"No, Uncle Ma, you are not trying to find a brother for Ma Yan, are you? Don't blame me for being nosy. Ma Yan needs to review now, and Auntie is not in good health. You are often out driving, so how can you have the energy to take care of the child?"

Ma Kui's face suddenly changed and he put down his chopsticks: "Why, do you mean that you want me to throw this child away again?"

Wang Xin hurriedly defended himself: "No, I was just thinking, why don't you leave the child at my house? We have a lot of people in our courtyard, and Aunt Cai, Aunt Lu, and Aunt Wu can all help take care of him. When the child's parents come, it won't be too late to send him back, right?"

Lu Hongxing, who was sitting with them, agreed when he heard this: "Yes, Lao Ma, if it doesn't work, just put it in our compound. There are many people who can take care of children."

Ma Kui shook his head firmly and refused: "No, this child has a minor problem. Let me take care of him first, and we'll talk about it later."

He had been with the child for some time, and to be honest, he quite liked the child. If he were the child's parents, he would definitely hand him over, but if he were to be sent to a railway compound, he would really be reluctant to do so.

Zhou Chen was sitting next to him listening. He understood what Wang Xin was thinking and why Ma Kui refused.

But he was thinking about something else now.

After lunch, he found a gap and called Ma Kui aside.

"Why did you call me here?"

Ma Kui asked in confusion. Actually, to be honest, he was Zhou Chen's subordinate now. After all, Zhou Chen was the chief of police. However, Zhou Chen never acted arrogantly, so their relationship was still the same as before.

"Uncle Ma, there are some things I don't know how to say, but if I don't say it, I feel bad and sorry for you. But if I say it, I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it..."

Ma Kui felt even more puzzled when he saw Zhou Chen being so hesitant and stammering.

"What's the matter? Just tell me what you want to say. I see you are not the kind of person who hesitates. No matter what it is, just tell me directly. I have even been in prison for ten years. Is there anything I cannot bear?"

Zhou Chen sighed and decided to speak out.

"Actually, it's about my aunt. Do you remember the last time I went to your house?"

"Sufang? What happened to Sufang?"

Ma Kui's face tightened. If there was anything in this world that could make him most nervous, it would definitely be his wife and daughter, so when he heard that it was related to his wife, his face changed.

"Uncle Ma, you know I know a little bit about medicine. In fact, I studied Chinese medicine and know some diagnostic methods. The last time I went to your house and saw Aunt, I felt something was wrong, so I observed her for a while."

Ma Kui couldn't help but recall the scene when Zhou Chen went home with him a few days ago. At that time, Zhou Chen did look at his wife a few more times, but he didn't take it seriously at the time. But now hearing Zhou Chen say this, he instinctively felt that something was wrong.

"You mean, there's something wrong with Sufang's body?" His voice began to tremble.

Zhou Chen nodded with a heavy face: "According to my observation, there is a high probability that there is something wrong with Auntie's health, and it may be a serious problem."

Ma Kui's sturdy body shook and his face turned pale. He held onto the car door next to him and his voice became hoarse.

"This is not a joke, are you sure?"

"I just looked at her, I didn't feel her pulse, so I'm not absolutely sure, but there must be something wrong with her body. I think you'd better take her to the hospital for a full-body checkup after you go back this time. It's better to be safe than sorry."

Zhou Chen naturally couldn't directly tell Wang Sufang that she had lung cancer, but as long as she went to the hospital for a check-up, she would know the result.

Ma Kui didn't speak for a long time. After a long time, he raised his head, his eyes red, and said to Zhou Chen: "Zhou Chen, thank you."

In fact, Wang Sufang was in poor health. He had known about it since he came back, but Wang Sufang always said that she just had emphysema and it was nothing serious and that she could be cured by taking medicine, so he didn't take it too seriously.

In his opinion, his wife is not even 40 yet and is in her prime. Even if her health is not very good, it should not be serious.

But after hearing what Zhou Chen said today, he felt full of uneasiness. Although Zhou Chen did not say it very clearly, as a policeman, he could naturally hear the implication of Zhou Chen's words. In Zhou Chen's judgment, Sufang might have serious health problems.

Zhou Chen didn't say anything else. In the TV drama, Wang Sufang was diagnosed with advanced cancer not long afterward. Although she lived for two years, she eventually died of the illness.

Now that he has said it in advance, it is really hard to say whether there is still hope. However, he feels that this kind of thing should still be told to Ma Kui.

Wang Sufang is really a poor person. She has to raise her daughter and maintain the family life alone. It is really not easy for her to persevere despite the gossips from neighbors and all kinds of heavy pressure.

Such a person should not bear all this alone. Just think of it as meddling in other people's business.

On the way back, Wang Xin was surprised to find that the master who had always been against him no longer scolded him. He was not as active and serious in his work as before, and was always distracted and thinking about things, which made him very strange.

He asked out of curiosity, but was then scolded by Ma Kui, which frightened him so much that he dared not ask again.

However, he found Zhou Chen privately.

"Zhou Chen, what did you say to my master? I noticed that his mental state has been off since you talked to my master."

Zhou Chen could tell Ma Kui about Wang Sufang, but he couldn't tell Wang Xin, an outsider, so he made up an excuse.

"Nothing much, just work."

"What kind of work-related issues could make Lao Ma so uneasy?"

"Why do you talk so much nonsense? If you have time to spare, get back to work."

"Oh, are you acting like a train conductor?"

"roll!"

"Get out of here."

This time, ever since Ma Kui learned about his wife from Zhou Chen, he has been thinking about going home.

After getting off the bus, he didn't even say hello to everyone and went straight back home as quickly as possible.

"Lao Ma, what are you doing? Why are you going to the hospital?"

As soon as they got home, Ma Kui dragged Wang Sufang to the hospital, which confused both Wang Sufang and Ma Yan. Wang Sufang struggled and didn't want to go.

Ma Yan also asked in confusion: "Yeah, Dad, why go to the hospital when you are fine? It's not a good place."

Ma Kui said seriously, "Of course I'm going to check on your mother. I noticed that she has been coughing non-stop since I came back, and she is also very weak. I am worried, so I will take your mother for a checkup today."

After Zhou Chen said that, he kept thinking about how they spent time together after returning, and found that his wife was indeed coughing the whole time, which was very abnormal.

Ma Yan was stunned for a moment, looked at her father, then at her mother, and then nodded.

"Dad, I think what you said makes sense. My mom's health is not very good. She should get a checkup so that we can all feel at ease."

Wang Sufang was helpless when she saw that her daughter actually sided with her husband.

"You two, father and daughter, are so different in your thinking. I don't know my own health. This is an old problem, emphysema. Just take medicine. Why do you need any examination? After a series of examinations at the hospital, my monthly salary is gone."

Ma Kui said very forcefully: "You can earn more salary if you lose it, but your health is not good. For me, no matter how much money I make, it is not as important as your health. I am the head of the family. I have the final say on this matter today. You have to go whether you want to or not."

"No, Lao Ma, are you determined?"

"Yes, I am determined. I must go now, immediately, and immediately."

Ma Yan stared at her father blankly. It had been more than half a year since her father came back. Her biggest feeling before was...

Her father was a man with a bad temper and a strong desire for control. He always interfered in her affairs and her affairs with Wang Xin. He was stubborn and unreasonable...

But at this moment, her father, although full of dominance, made her feel extremely at ease.

In the end, Wang Sufang was unable to convince Ma Kui and Ma Yan, father and daughter, and obediently followed them to the hospital, where she had her blood drawn and underwent a series of other tests.

The test was done, but the results won't be out until tomorrow.

On the way back, Wang Sufang was still feeling sorry for the money.

"I told you I was fine, but you still insisted on coming for a checkup. It cost so much money. It would have been better to keep it for my family's daily life."

Ma Kui hummed, "You need to have a good body to live a good life. Spend some money and make sure everything is fine. Only then can our family live in peace."

Ma Yan nodded in agreement: "Yes, what my dad said makes sense, Mom, you should have gone for a check-up a long time ago. What I said before was useless. It seems that my dad's words are still effective."

Wang Sufang looked at the person she cared about the most with a smile. She was complaining, but she also understood that they were doing it for her own good. What else could she say?
