Boss, He’s Becoming a Father [Arc 1] Chapter 31.1: The Prodigal Son (59)
“If you can’t practice medicine, you can learn it.” Shao Yu said with a smile.
After hearing this, Dr. Lu still had a huge reaction and said: “She is a girl. She can just take care of her husband and raise her children at home. Why should she learn this?”
Even though Lu Yun’er is his only daughter, and even if she shows interest in medicine, Doctor Lu has no intention of teaching her. In Doctor Lu’s heart, the successor to his mantle will only appear among those few male apprentices. He didn’t think about his daughter at all.
“The child likes it, so why stop it.” Shao Yu said.
“It’s not that I’m stopping her, but she can’t practice medicine even after studying. Which husband’s family can tolerate their daughter-in-law touching a man’s wrist all day long?” Doctor Lu can tolerate his daughter’s love for Shao Dabao, but for his daughter when it comes to studying medicine, his attitude is very determined.
Although Shao Yu had heard about the Lu family’s family affairs for a long time, he never had any intention of meddling in it. But now when he thought of Lu Yun’er, a good girl, who had bad eyesight and fell in love with Shao Dabao.
Although Shao Dabao has improved now, his future is still full of uncertainty. Therefore, if Lu Yun’er can gain a skill, then if Shao Dabao returns to his old ways in the future, she will have the confidence to start her own life.
“When she studies medicine, she doesn’t have to touch a man’s wrist. Can’t a female doctor also treat women?” Shao Yu asked.
Dr. Lu was stunned after hearing this.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t see his daughter’s talent all along, but he had been avoiding it for this reason. He was afraid that giving his daughter hope would harm her for the rest of her life. Now that Shao Yu said another possibility, it suddenly made him enlightened, he only felt that he has been stuck in a dead end for more than ten years.
“Brother Shao, why are you so persistent on this matter?” Dr. Lu couldn’t help but ask.
Shao Yu said: “My daughter doesn’t know how to work and likes to make lanterns, so I do my best to find materials for her from all over the world so that she can make the lanterns she likes as soon as possible.”
Doctor Lu thought of the various materials available everywhere in the Shao family, and how he would see Shao Xiaocao making lanterns every time he visited the Shao family.
“I do this, not because of anything else, just because the child likes it, and it’s not a bad thing, as a parent, I will fully support it.”
“What about my Yun’er?” Dr. Lu was still a little puzzled, not understanding why Shao Yu was so persistent in Yuner’s medical studies, and even said: “It’s just a medical center, in fact It’s not worth the money. ”
“The most valuable thing about a medical center is not the house or the medicinal materials, but the signboard.” Shao Yu said.
Dr. Lu couldn’t help but nod when he heard this. What he values is not this medical clinic, but this sign that has been passed down by him for many years of practicing medicine.
Shao Yu continued: “Can your disciples really inherit this brand?”
Dr. Lu was silent for a long time after hearing this. He also understood that his apprentices were not incompetent, but that most of them were not suitable for this bowl of rice. It was precisely because of this that he had been hesitating to whom to pass on the mantle.
Shao Yu continued: “Although Yun’er is not my daughter, if this marriage is completed, she will be my daughter-in-law and my child. Naturally, I will fight for this opportunity for her.”
Dr. Lu was shocked when he heard this. He felt that his daughter was going to marry into a good family, and he also thought that his daughter’s husband’s family had already worked so hard to fight for her. Why would he, her biological father, still stop his daughter?
“Teach, I’ll start teaching her tomorrow.” Dr. Lu said with red eyes.
Shao Yu nodded.
Doctor Lu asked again: “Brother Shao, what else do you want? As long as the two children live a good life, I will do my best to support them.”
“Since you said that, then I’m relieved.” Shao Yu said.
Doctor Lu was a little surprised, but soon he heard Shao Yu speak again.
“Thirdly, let the couple decide for themselves what name their future grandchildren will take and which family name they will follow. I will not interfere.”
After hearing this, Doctor Lu’s eyes showed confusion. This was a request to him, but it was more like Shao Yu’s request to himself. It even seemed to imply the transfer of the right to bear the surname.
“Brother Shao, what are you doing…don’t do this…” Dr. Lu couldn’t help but started to choke.
Shao Yu has never had any idea of continuing the family line, and he doesn’t care about the surname. As for Dr. Lu, his wife did not want to continue the relationship after her death and only raised one daughter. He always felt that he was the sinner of the Lu family. Now Shao Yu proposed this conditions, it seems more and more like they are thinking about him.
“Brother Shao… No, big brother, from now on, you are my biological eldest brother.” Even if Dr. Lu is unwilling to marry a girl without accepting a gift, the conditions that Shao Yu proposed at this time are really a great kindness to him. .
“I haven’t finished my request yet.” Shao Yu said with a smile.
Dr. Lu quickly held back his tears and said to him, “Brother, please continue.”
“Since you called me big brother, then I will do what a big brother should do.” Shao Yu said.
Doctor Lu looked at him blankly.
Shao Yu said: “From now on, the two families will become one family and they must celebrate the New Year together every year.”
“Big Brother…” Although Dr. Lu has many apprentices, he now only has his daughter as a relative. In fact, the father and daughter have been dependent on each other for many years.
