Faced with the opposition of Chen Baozhu's family, Lei Zhensheng expected it, but he was not discouraged. Lei Zhensheng himself does not want to go back to his hometown in that remote area, he knows that only by developing in the provincial capital can there be the best development platform and change his destiny. He didn't want to be an obscure doctor from the beginning, so he worked harder than others, and he did all this in the hope that through his own efforts, he would have the opportunity to be assigned to the Affiliated Hospital of the Medical University in the provincial capital. Until the distribution results came out, he never gave up for a moment.

But it backfired, without exception, Lei Zhensheng was assigned to the hospital in the city where his hometown was located, while Chen Baozhu stayed in school to become a teacher of basic medicine because of his father's relationship. Such a distribution is already glorious for Lei Zhensheng's family, but for Lei Zhensheng, it is to extinguish his dream and completely separate him and Chen Baozhu. On the night when the work assignment was announced, Lei Zhensheng drank a lot of wine and thought about a lot of things. That day was also a watershed in his life, he learned from the pain, for the sake of his future future, in order to stay in the provincial capital and Chen Baozhu to continue to develop, he made a very bold decision in that era, that is, not to work, to continue to stay in school for further study - graduate school.

At that time, it was too trendy to give up low-hanging fruit employment opportunities and choose to go to graduate school, so trendy that the people in Lei Zhensheng's village had never even heard of the term "graduate student", everyone only knew that there were "college students", but they had never heard of "graduate students". For this reason, Lei Zhensheng's parents were very sad, his father almost broke off the father-son relationship with him, and his brothers and sisters also came to persuade him, but Lei Zhensheng has always been like this, and he must do what he wants to do. In fact, from the moment he made up his mind, he knew that there would be pain left and right when making such a choice, and he chose not to pay attention to it, and it turned out that his parents' opposition was futile, and he resolutely insisted on staying and went to graduate school without hesitation.

At that time, although Lei Zhensheng was still young, he was not like a recent college graduate who was ignorant of the future, and he always knew what he wanted and what kind of life he wanted to pursue. The master's supervisor of his graduate school is Professor Chen Qi, who has just returned from studying in Japan, is a master's supervisor at the age of 30, and became the deputy director of general surgery at the age of 32 and is also a legend of the school, which makes him even more determined to study for graduate school.

Facts also proved that Lei Zhensheng's choice was right, Chen Shanfeng saw his determination, and the graduate students of that era were also rare talents, so he agreed to his marriage with Chen Baozhu in the second year of his graduate studies. And their wedding was held in the year Lei Zhensheng graduated from graduate school, and in that year, Lei Zhensheng also entered the affiliated hospital of Linjiang Provincial Medical University - the first hospital in the province because of the relationship between his mentor Chen Qi and the advantage of his academic qualifications. Later, with Chen Qi's promotion all the way, Lei Zhensheng was also promoted all the way. When he was 35 years old, he became the deputy director of the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, and 3 years later, he became the director of the department, and Uncle Fan Quan, who was a few levels higher than himself, was still his deputy director, which always made him complacent that he made the right choice back then.

Inadvertently, Lei Zhensheng's car had already driven to the gate of the Sunshine New Town Community - this is his own home, Lei Zhensheng looked at the window on the 8th floor of Building 9, and could see the faint light inside, Lei Zhensheng knew that there were people inside, and this was Lei Zhensheng's real home.

Sunshine New Town this house was bought 11 years ago when Lei Zhensheng just became the deputy director of the department, when his son Lei Yujia had just graduated from primary school, and his wife Chen Baozhu ran for his son to be able to go to the best high school - No. 2 Middle School, how many legs he ran, how many relationships he found, and how many people he asked to buy this school district house.

From looking at the model house, housing transactions, to house decoration, to buying furniture, Chen Baozhu is in charge alone. Because Lei Zhensheng had just been promoted to the deputy director of the department at that time, he was very busy in the hospital, and he was doing a lot of surgeries every day, Lei Zhensheng was also very desperate, and he often came back after more than 10 o'clock at night, and he had no time to take care of things at home.

Lei Zhensheng vaguely remembers the situation when their family moved into this house from a 60-square-meter house, it was a weekend, the day before Chen Baozhu packed everything at home, and the next day Lei Zhensheng followed the moving company's car to the new home after checking the house, only to see Chen Baozhu busy at home alone, either tidying things up or cleaning. Looking at Chen Baozhu's busy background, Lei Zhensheng felt very happy, Chen Baozhu at that time was a good wife who could go to the hall and the kitchen, capable and beautiful.

That night, the family of three had a meal together and beautifully, it was still Chen Baozhu's cooked noodles, and there were still two yellowed poached eggs on one side in the noodles, although it was very simple, but the family was very happy. After dinner, Lei Zhensheng saw Chen Baozhu cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, so he leaned forward to help her, and when he got closer, he found that his wife in her 30s had recently grown white hair for the sake of this house. Lei Zhensheng was very pitiful, and he vowed to be good to Chen Baozhu for the rest of his life and never let her suffer again. Lei Zhensheng and Chen Baozhu made a wish together to spend the rest of their lives happily in this house where they spent all their efforts. What a warm family they were!

It's just that 11 years have passed, and everything is like a world away. Today, the house, the home, and the hostess in it are still there, but the feelings of the family have changed. In the past 11 years, Lei Zhensheng has been promoted from deputy director of the department to director of the department, and he is about to become the vice dean, and Chen Baozhu has also been transferred from an ordinary teacher of basic medicine of the medical university to the graduate school of the medical university and has become the deputy secretary of the party committee of the graduate school.

Although both of them have been promoted in their positions, their living conditions are getting better and better, and their families are getting richer and richer, the marital happiness index of the two of them has not increased with the promotion of their positions, but has become lower and lower. If the happiness index is negative, with the current marriage relationship between the two of them, then they can probably be classified as a negative number. Endless quarrels and long-term cold wars fill their daily lives, and a marriage that exists in name only, happiness is getting farther and farther away from the two of them...... And all this, in the final analysis, began to change after Lei Zhensheng was promoted to section director 8 years ago.
