Target

Gu Xiangyi was stunned by this question. What was her goal? She didn't actually have a clear goal. She just wanted to leave her parents and go to a place "full of freedom" where she didn't have to be taken care of by others. She wanted to become an adult, not a child who depended on others for everything.

"Sister-in-law, I also want to enter the operating room!" Gu Xiangyi's eyes lit up. For anyone studying medicine, the operating room is sacred. Surgeons want to pick up the scalpel. Gu Xiangyi is a nurse, and she also wants to enter the operating room and become the surgeon's right-hand man.

Zhan Aiping smiled and said, "Then make this your goal. Perhaps one day in the future, we can be on the operating table together."

Gu Xiangyi nodded. She held Zhan Aiping's hand excitedly. "I don't know why I'm so excited, but I get excited when I think about this. It's very strange. I wanted to be a nurse before because of him—"

"It's that Doctor Wu."

Gu Xiangyi nodded: "He is a surgeon, he performs surgery on patients, I used to imagine that I could be a nurse beside him, I could wear surgical gowns for him, wipe Dr. Wu's eyes, and hand him the necessary instruments during surgery..."

"I've dreamt about this many times."

"But—" Gu Xiangyi frowned: "Although I want to be a nurse because of him, I don't just want to serve him as a doctor. Just like you just said that you want to be on the operating table with me, I want to be a nurse beside you."

"Yes, I just want to be a good nurse who can cooperate with the surgeon-in-chief, no matter who that doctor is... it would be even better if he were the dean." Gu Xiangyi put her hands on her hips. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that she was still very ambitious.

She is ambitious.

Zhan Aiping smiled and said, "I wanted to study medicine because of your brother. But your brother was just one of the reasons. The reason I was able to study medicine was because I liked it."

"I can treat anyone."

"You can't just treat one pig."

Gu Xiangyi: "… You describe my brother as a pig, aren't you afraid that I will complain?"

Zhan Aiping rubbed her head: "Which side are you on? Didn't you say you wanted to form an alliance with your sister-in-law? Why do you want to have your cake and eat it too? Do you want to complain to your brother?"

Gu Xiangyi snorted, "It's obvious that you two are allies now. I'm just a fence-sitter, swaying with the wind. I'll lean towards whoever gives me more benefits."

Zhan Aiping: "... Little sister, you can't be a fence-sitter."

*

Gu Xiangyi started working in the military hospital. After what happened that day, she was still very sad, but she didn't tell anyone. She thought that she was already an adult and should lick her wounds and wipe her tears silently.

However, perhaps because I was too young, although I was sad, I wasn’t too sad. Plus, I came to a new environment, so the excitement and joy in my heart overshadowed that little bit of sadness.

Head Nurse Zhang treated her very well. Gu Xiangyi quickly integrated into the group of young nurses and made two friends. They would eat in the cafeteria together every day and chat when they were free. Gu Xiangyi adapted quickly.

Because her brother and sister-in-law are both celebrities, people often come to her to ask about her brother and sister-in-law Gu Sheng and Zhan Aiping. Gu Xiangyi said that they had a very good relationship when they were young, and their relationship became even deeper after they got married. "I wanted to be my sister-in-law's ally, but the couple was very exclusive and didn't want me at all, so I had no choice but to be a fence-sitter."

Her fellow nurse Sun Ying said: "I envy this kind of childhood sweetheart love."

"It's like the romantic love described in Soviet novels."

"Shhhhh, this is not the time to talk about this."

"Many people have a few copies hidden at home, so you can just read them secretly." Sun Ying looked at Gu Xiangyi with a look that said, "You're not surprised by anything you've seen so rarely."

Gu Xiangyi: “…”

Gu Ze'an is an old-fashioned man. Although he has a good relationship with his wife, he is always afraid that his little daughter will learn bad things. He never lets her read any romance novels. Whenever he sees couples being intimate in foreign movies, the old-fashioned Gu Ze'an always says something like "it is immoral".

In Gu Xiangyi's eyes, love is a very taboo thing, and she is embarrassed to talk about the relationship between men and women.

Even if she once liked someone, she didn't know who to tell.

"Really? Many of us female soldiers like to read novels. We even secretly take turns reading them. I'll show you two next time."

"Really? Lend it to me next time." Gu Xiangyi was very curious.

Sun Ying asked her curiously, "Do your brother and sister-in-law have a really good relationship? One of them is handsome, and the other is beautiful. They are really a perfect match made in heaven. Doctor Zhu Dongxia from our hospital said that she was your sister-in-law's college classmate, and she said that your sister-in-law didn't contact your brother when she was in college."

"What does she know? She is just my sister-in-law's classmate, and I am my brother's sister. I grew up with them since I was a child, and they were flirting right under my nose."

“My brother can draw, and he drew a lot of pictures of my sister-in-law… When he joined the army, he always carried pictures of my sister-in-law with him.”

Sun Ying was stunned: "Really?"

"I envy my brother and sister-in-law. Why don't I have a childhood sweetheart who grew up with me?" Gu Xiangyi held her face. In fact, there were many boys of the same age in the compound, but she didn't have the skills of her sister-in-law Zhan Aiping, so she didn't hang out with that group of boys.

She followed the big sister Zhan Aiping and worked under her.

Besides, she has five brothers, and no one dares to provoke her easily.

Gu Sheng used to be a well-known figure in the military hospital. His sudden marriage had become a hot topic in the hospital. It was said that he remarried suddenly and the couple had no feelings for each other. Many people in the military hospital were hoping that Gu Sheng would get divorced.

As a result, the person's biological sister is here now. She has personally confirmed that her brother and sister-in-law are childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Gu Xiangyi is simple and innocent, and looks stupid and gullible. What she said is most likely true.

Sun Ying actually didn't believe that there was such a perfect match in reality, but after hearing Gu Xiangyi's impeccable words, she couldn't help but sigh: "Your brother is more affectionate than the male protagonist in the novel."

In the eyes of Nurse Sun Ying, the once cold-faced young male officer Gu Sheng, who was not interested in women, gradually formed the image of a "lovesick man" in her mind.

Zhu Dongxia also heard these rumors. Her face looked unhappy. Zhu Dongxia did not believe them at all. As a college classmate of Zhan Aiping, she saw this beautiful girl fall. She thought she was living a better life than Zhan Aiping, but she did not expect that she was not hurt at all.

Zhan Aiping married a man from a good family, and they were childhood sweethearts. I heard that her parents-in-law like her very much.

No matter what she does, she always has an outstanding and devoted childhood sweetheart guarding her.

"I don't believe that there is no such thing as a long-lasting relationship in this world, even if..." Zhu Dongxia thought of herself. Her husband treated her very well, but after dating for so many days, the initial passion gradually disappeared, and what remained was contentment with a peaceful life and the companionship between each other.

Zhu Dongxia simply didn't believe that they could still be together after twenty years of relationship.

*

In addition to knowing several nurse friends, Gu Xiangyi also knew several doctors, one of whom was named Zhang Jun. Gu Xiangyi had talked to him several times. Zhang Jun had seen Zhan Aiping perform surgery with his own eyes, and he described the entire process in a miraculous way.

Zhang Jun has a talent for storytelling: "The patient was bleeding badly at the time. I was terrified. I thought it was over. It was really over. This person was going to die in my hands..."

Gu Xiangyi: “…”

"In a flash, a person appeared. She was wearing a mask, so her face could not be seen clearly. The only thing she had was a pair of eyes, just like the moon in the sky."

Gu Xiangyi: "My sister-in-law has beautiful eyes."

“It is really beautiful and unforgettable.”

Gu Xiangyi reiterated: "She is already my sister-in-law, so don't have any wild thoughts about her."

Zhang Jun said, "I admire her. I think a female doctor can be so patient and I admire her very much. I heard that your sister-in-law was one of the best students in the Military Medical University."

"That's—"

Gu Xiangyi and Zhang Jun got together to chat and they were having a very lively conversation. Zhang Jun was a new doctor and he wasn't arrogant. He had made a lot of mistakes since he entered the hospital and he told them to Gu Xiangyi as if they were jokes. Gu Xiangyi was very happy to hear it and thought that this kind of little loser was very suitable to be a friend.

She had heard too many stories about outstanding people, and it was too stressful to get along with them. It was very easy to chat with Zhang Jun, and Gu Xiangyi treated him as an ordinary friend.

Because her life was very fulfilling every day, even though they were in the same hospital, Gu Xiangyi didn't think much about Wu Jun. When she occasionally met him, she pretended not to see him.

Just because her brother Gu Sheng was so venomous: "Do you really believe her? A dog can't change its nature of eating shit."

"Maybe if someone treats her well, she will come over again."

Her brother Gu Sheng's face was so handsome and deserved a beating. Just thinking about it made her fist hard. He could attract all the firepower by himself. No wonder her sister-in-law had fought with him before.

Gu Xiangyi has been in the military hospital for five or six days. Wu Jun originally thought that he would hear rumors about Gu Xiangyi and himself, but in fact, he did not hear any rumors. There were only rumors about Gu Xiangyi's brother "Gu Sheng".

"Captain Gu has a very good relationship with his wife."

"I heard that Nurse Gu came here partly to check on my brother and sister-in-law."

"She wanted to go to the border areas to be a good nurse, but her parents didn't agree. Now that they know her brother and sister-in-law are here, especially knowing her sister-in-law is here, they feel relieved and are willing to let her come."

"Nurse Gu is very serious."

Gu Xiangyi had dinner with him that day. The two of them only sat there for a while and few people saw them. Afterwards, they didn't say hello to each other and others pretended that they didn't know each other.

So—no one thought that "Gu Xiangyi came for him."

Gu Xiangyi never mentioned him, and Wu Jun's face turned ugly when he thought of his own "self-conceit".

What made him even more unbearable was that Gu Xiangyi got along very well with Zhang Jun and several other male doctors.

Zhang Jun, under the name "Zhan Aiping", talked to Gu Xiangyi about her sister-in-law every day, "When your sister-in-law had surgery, I could only help her."

"The dean even praised her."

Gu Xiangyi also laughed at the side: "Zhang Jun, you are so funny."

Wu Jun also secretly overheard some people's conversations:

"Do you know what the new nurse Gu's family background is?"

"She is Captain Gu's biological sister."

"That Zhang Jun seems to be close to her. I didn't expect that his medical skills are mediocre, but he is quite good at making girls happy. If he can win over Nurse Gu, he will be…"

"It's because we are not that lucky. You don't know how to coax girls."

In the past, Gu Xiangyi followed him like a follower, and the people around him only gossiped about him and Gu Xiangyi, which made Wu Jun very annoyed. Now, Gu Xiangyi has become paired with another man.

That young doctor named Zhang Jun still dreams of becoming the commander's son-in-law

Gu Xiangyi has a good family background. Her father is a commander, her mother, her brother... Wu Jun knows better than Gu Xiangyi what her brother does.

Gu Xiangyi is naive, simple and stupid. What if Zhang Jun really gets Gu Xiangyi down? Wu Jun's face turned pale.

—It was like someone had stolen something that belonged to him.

Wu Jun found a time and called Gu Xiangyi out in front of many nurses, "Gu Xiangyi, I have something to tell you."

The remaining few young nurses in the treatment room looked at each other.

"Does Xiao Gu still know Doctor Wu?"

"Maybe I know him. Maybe he's from the same hometown as me."

"I asked when Xiao Gu came here. They should be ordinary old classmates."

They came to the lawn under the ward building. Gu Xiangyi didn't want to talk to Wu Jun because her brother Gu Sheng's words were too toxic. He had no right to say that she was a "dog that can't change its nature of eating shit". She just went over when someone waved at her.

Is she that cheap

Now Gu Xiangyi's feelings towards Wu Jun are also very complicated. After all, she has been thinking about him for many years, and it is not so easy to let go of him all of a sudden. However, Wu Jun's importance in her mind has plummeted.

She made many new friends in the military hospital.

Here, things are different from with my parents.

Staying with her parents and having familiar uncles and aunts looking after her at work, Gu Xiangyi always feels like she is being watched. Now the emperor is far away, and even if her family background sounds impressive, people here will just listen to it and still treat her as an ordinary friend.

—The praise she received at work was also real.

Gu Xiangyi feels that she is making progress day by day. Compared with the relationship between men and women, Gu Xiangyi currently wants to learn to be an independent and outstanding person and make more friends.

Wu Jun said to her: "I apologize to you for what happened that day."

"No need, Doctor Wu." Gu Xiangyi shook his head: "I'm not trying to pester you, I just think it's nice to meet a familiar fellow villager here."

Wu Jun: "... Let's have dinner together tonight. This will be my apology to you."

"No, no, no." The people here are talkative like colanders. The young nurses and medics love to gossip. If she eats with Wu Jun, her brother Gu Sheng will laugh at her if rumors get out.

Her brother was very sharp-tongued: "Yeah, I was right, wasn't I? My sister is like a fly, she's always around me and I can't get rid of her."

Gu Xiangyi had already told her sister-in-law that she wanted to work hard and become an excellent nurse, but now she was being beckoned over again.

She was so embarrassed!

Gu Xiangyi is also a person who cares about face.

"Doctor Wu, forget it. Let's not be alone together, so as not to cause misunderstandings." After saying that, Gu Xiangyi turned and left. She felt that her current life was very good and didn't want to cause any more trouble.

Wu Jun looked at her receding back and felt extremely humiliated.

If Gu Xiangyi wanted to attract his attention in this way, he would never take the bait.

Wu Jun didn't believe that Gu Xiangyi would give up on him so easily.

It was also his own fault. Every time this happened, he couldn't help but give her a little hope.

After taking two days off, Zhan Aiping had to go back to the township hospital to work three consecutive days. On this day, she had just arrived at the hospital to take over the shift when a couple came hurriedly holding a child to seek medical treatment, followed by a middle-aged woman with short hair.

The child was a premature baby, a little girl, who was born not long ago. The whole baby weighed less than two kilograms, so tiny. The man kept asking her to save the child.

The woman next to him was his wife. Her face looked extremely pale and she was also looking at Zhan Aiping in panic.

The woman following behind was the man’s eldest sister, and she was still yelling, “She can’t survive, she can’t survive. What’s the point of keeping such a tiny child, a girl at that?”

The infant mortality rate in this era was extremely high, over 50 percent, almost half of the babies died in infancy. To ordinary people, the death of a baby was nothing.

"I told you not to marry her, but you insisted on marrying her. She's skinny and you can't have children. You finally gave birth to an egg, but it turned out to be a plague."

The woman looked at the thin woman who had just given birth with disdain. In the eyes of the country people, women with broad hips and shoulders are better.

“Which woman is as pretentious as her when giving birth? She can’t carry anything on her shoulders or with her hands. She tried to give birth for a long time but couldn’t deliver the baby. Now she has given birth to a useless child and she doesn’t even have milk… I gave birth to four children before. Before giving birth, I went to work in the fields. I had spotting and still had a load on my shoulders. When I got under the tree, I knew it was a boy.” The man’s sister was arrogant and obviously very dissatisfied with her brother’s wife.

The thin woman's face looked very ugly, her lips were pale and her hands were shaking.

Zhan Aiping took the child from the man's hands. She called Qin Yanfang over, and the two of them made a small incubator for the child using cardboard boxes, clean clothes and quilts. They filled the infusion bottle with hot water to keep the child warm.

Zhan Aiping had just delivered a baby for a woman in the town a few days ago. Knowing that the woman had a lot of breast milk, she sent the man to the woman's house to ask for some breast milk. The man left hesitantly.

The man's sister saw this and said, "Don't bother with that. My family doesn't want this child anymore. If he dies in your hospital, it will be your hospital's fault—"

The pale-faced woman grabbed Zhan Aiping's hand and tremblingly took out a handful of loose bills and coins: "Doctor, I still have a few dollars here."

The middle-aged woman on the side was furious and said, "I knew you were hiding the money—"

She was about to reach out to grab it, but Zhan Aiping grabbed her hand. The woman found herself unable to move at all. She looked at the young and beautiful female doctor in front of her with horror.

She originally thought that the female doctor was young, timid and easy to bully, but she didn't expect her to be so strong.

Zhan Aiping said expressionlessly: "Get out of the way, don't delay my treatment. I have a bad temper. I used to be a female soldier. Do you know why I am not in the military hospital now?"

The woman was stunned, and the thin woman next to her was also stunned.

"Because of my bad temper, I broke the patient's family member's leg."

The middle-aged woman shrank back: "Who are you trying to fool?"

"Why don't you try it? I've been fighting with people since I was a child." Zhan Aiping rolled up her sleeves and grabbed the middle-aged woman's arm. The woman suddenly found that her hand was numb.

Zhan Aiping pushed her out. The middle-aged woman looked unhappy and thought she had some magic.

At this time, a few more people gathered to watch the show. The middle-aged woman couldn't make trouble anymore, so she stomped her feet and left. She was afraid of having to pay medical bills.

"Thank you, doctor." The thin woman looked at her hesitantly.

"Please sit down first. I'll check on you." Zhan Aiping had already noticed that something was wrong with the woman in labor. She had a fever and her condition was very bad.

Zhan Aiping and Qin Yanfang had previously cleared out an empty tile-roofed house and placed a simple wooden bed inside, intending to use it as a ward. She helped the woman there, asked the pharmacist to get some medicine, and gave her an infusion.

The woman's name was Wang Xiaoyue. Her husband's surname was Zheng, and his name was Zheng Tong. Zheng Tong brought back the breast milk, and Zhan Aiping fed the baby. He kept muttering, "Doctor, can he survive? Can he survive?"

The midwife said that his wife would not be able to have children in the future, and that this was her only daughter. If she died, his wife would be very sad.

"With careful care, he can survive." The child was born prematurely and had a little jaundice. Zhan Aiping asked the man to look after him and taught him how to disinfect and how to take care of the baby.

The medical conditions at that time were poor, and people's knowledge of hygiene was also worrying. The high infant mortality rate was also related to this. The delivery environment was not good for mothers, and they were not careful when cutting the umbilical cord of their children. The broken umbilical cord of the baby was also easily infected by bacteria.

Zhan Aiping took care of the child again and checked her condition. After a day, the child was able to breastfeed and was fine. She was hanging on to life, like a resilient grass.

Wang Xiaoyue's condition also recovered well. Zhan Aiping held the child in front of her. Wang Xiaoyue was happy and sad at the same time. "It would be better if the child didn't survive, so that he wouldn't have to suffer this kind of pain in the future."

Many girls don't know this before giving birth, and think that the most painful time is giving birth. In fact, the most difficult thing is feeding the baby and not being able to sleep well day and night, just like dysmenorrhea. Some people are born with good physical constitutions, while others suffer from excruciating pain and recurrent inflammation. And there will be people of the same gender who will make sarcastic remarks and say that you are being pretentious.

You say you never have dysmenorrhea, and that giving birth is very easy. You say you are the child's biological mother, but you are so cruel that you don't breastfeed your child yourself, and that your child will have a poor health in the future. This is how many cases of postpartum depression come about.

Zhan Aiping said to her: "She is lucky to be alive. She will be blessed in the future."

"You two think so highly of her. This is her blessing. Take good care of her in the future, tell her to read more, and see the outside world in the future."

Wang Xiaoyue looked at the skinny little baby and said in a daze: "I'll let her become a doctor too."

"Let her go to college."

Zheng Tong and Wang Xiaoyue named their child Xuemei. Zheng Xuemei means that the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. They are not well educated, but they have heard people repeating this sentence. After experiencing the severe cold, the fragrance of plum blossoms is everywhere.

Zhan Aiping taught Wang Xiaoyue how to identify herbs, and also taught her how to take care of her body and the baby after she returned home.

Xiao Xuemei stayed in the hospital for several days and became stronger and stronger. Zheng Tong took Wang Xiaoyue out of the hospital and thanked Zhan Aiping profusely before leaving.

The baby in the hospital passed away, and Qin Yanfang felt a little regretful. She thought it was fun to tease children.

Qin Yanfang said to Zhan Aiping: "When I get married and have children in the future, I will definitely ask you to deliver them."

"You are the best at cutting the umbilical cord."

"I think their skills are not as good as yours. It's better to cut the baby's umbilical cord more beautifully."

Zhan Aiping: "… So you just want me to cut the umbilical cord, then go ahead and give birth, and then ask me to come in and cut the umbilical cord after you're done."

"Pingping, please don't. I need you to stay by my side to protect my life. Giving birth is really a journey of hell for a woman. I'm afraid I won't be able to raise such a cute child."

"Really? They all said that you cut the umbilical cord well and the baby is strong."

"You've only been here for a few days, and many people in this town want you to watch them give birth. Oh, wait another year or two, and all the children born around here will have their umbilical cords cut by you."

"When a group of children in town start to fight, I will run over and shout, 'Those who need Dr. Zhan to cut the umbilical cord should stand over here, and those who don't need Dr. Zhan to cut the umbilical cord should stand over there. Look who's standing over there? It's your own child, Pingping."

Zhan Aiping glanced at her.

Meng Xiaoyun also came over at this time and joked: "Xiao Qin, you are not married yet, but you are thinking about having a baby?"

Qin Yanfang said: "I am farsighted."

Zhan Aiping: "You are full of empty words."

*

Director Xu of the military hospital took time out to visit Yanxin Health Center that day. He was very curious about why Zhan Aiping was willing to stay in the township health center if she had such abilities.

Dean Xu has been waiting for her to regret it. To be honest, their hospital is short of staff. Zhan Aiping is a good seedling. If she can become a good doctor, he would be more than happy.

It seems that Zhan Aiping can really sit still. She stays in the township hospital, goes to get off work honestly every day, and has no complaints. Doesn't she crave the scalpel

Director Xu stood at the door of Yanxin Health Center. He coughed once or twice and wore a hat just to inquire about Zhan Aiping's condition.

Don't alert the enemy first. In case Zhan Aiping is not having a good time in the township hospital, he can use a little trick to recruit her.

Dean Xu pretended to be a patient and found someone in the hospital to inquire about the situation. The person he found happened to be Dr. Zhou, Zhou Zhonghua, who was eating noodles at the door of the house.

"I want to ask about the situation in your hospital. What are the conditions of your Western pharmacy?"

Zhou Zhonghua: "I work at the Chinese medicine pharmacy."

Dean Xu: "Then there's a new doctor in your hospital's pharmacy? His last name is Zhan?"

Doctor Zhou was surprised and said, "Who told you that? Doctor Zhan is obviously from our Chinese medicine pharmacy."

"What, what?" Dean Xu was stunned. He could guess that Zhan Aiping might also know Chinese medicine, but didn't she want to study surgery before? How did she become a Chinese medicine doctor now

Doctor Zhou praised: "Don't think that our doctor Zhan is from a big city. Her Chinese medicine skills are really good. Her acupuncture techniques are also good. She has cured many difficult and complicated diseases. I suspect she was born to be a Chinese medicine practitioner!"

Dean Xu: “…” Bullshit!

How could she be a good candidate for studying Chinese medicine

She is obviously a good material to be his apprentice.

"Really? Look at your face. You don't believe it, do you? Although Dr. Zhan is young, she has read a lot of books and is very experienced. The last time she set someone's bones, I had to learn a few tricks from her."

Dean Xu said with a dark face: "That's because your medical skills are not good enough."

Doctor Zhou took a breath. What did he mean by his poor medical skills? He chuckled and said, "My dear brother, I see that you have been very anxious and angry recently. You can go to Xiao Kaizhang to get some medicine."

"Really, you're very angry."

Dean Xu: “…”

He was indeed very angry.

When he saw Zhan Aiping, Dean Xu's face didn't look very good, and he stared at Zhan Aiping with a look of disappointment.

Zhan Aiping: "President Xu, why are you here?"

Dean Xu said coldly: "If you regret it, follow me now."

Don't waste your time in this rural hospital.

Zhan Aiping said: "When I regret it, I will naturally come to you."

Dean Xu: “…”

Dean Xu thought that he had already lowered himself so much, but she still didn't give him any face, "You're really not leaving?"

"Director Xu, you have been persistent. Since you are here, you will stay for at least two or three years. You may not know this, but Director Hao called and said that this township hospital will also set up an operating room soon." The government also attaches great importance to the development of township hospitals. As for the township hospital now, it may be developed into a county hospital or a municipal hospital in the future.

This is a process from scratch, and Zhan Aiping plans to stay and witness it all. She also plans to compile a series of books entitled "Surgical Operation Skills in Township (County) Hospitals."

Since she was here anyway, she had to leave something behind. Zhan Aiping felt that she had a little hobby in editing books.

When the college entrance examination is resumed in the future, she wants to let future medical students use the book she compiled.

She also has ambitions to compile teaching materials.

Medical students tremble when they see her name.

If she can't become a famous doctor, then I wish she can have many students all over the world.

Dean Xu: “…” He thought to himself that this stinky stone really didn’t know what was good for him.

"If you regret it, you can still come to the military hospital to see me."

*

Dean Hao returned from studying abroad. As soon as he returned to Yanxin Health Center, he called Zhan Aiping to his office alone and talked to her for a long time.

Dean Hao is a thin middle-aged man with dark skin. He doesn't look like a dean and looks more like a farmer in the countryside. However, he is very polite and courteous when he speaks.

"Comrade Zhan, although it is very wrong, the hospital still hopes that you can stay. You are a treasure." This time, Director Hao dared to apply to the higher authorities to expand the operating room and inpatient department. It was also the arrival of Zhan Aiping that gave him some courage to hope.

If their township hospital wants to develop, it needs talents, talents who have seen more of the world.

Zhan Aiping said, "I will stay here for a few years." She herself was not sure.

After hearing her words, Dean Hao was very excited: "Don't worry, the position of deputy dean will be yours in the future."

Zhan Aiping: “…” Is this just empty talk

The news that Director Hao brought back made everyone in the health center very excited. If an operating room was built and more inpatient wards were added in the future, their hospital would be expanded and there would be many new doctors.

What makes Qin Yanfang even more excited is: "Can we build a building in the future, turn the family housing into a building, and live in the building?!"

Zhan Aiping nodded: "Yes."

Dr. Zhou teased Qin Yanfang: "Why don't you get married quickly?"

"I'll wait until I can live in an apartment before getting married."

Director Hao brought back good news. Everyone in the hospital had a lunch together. Several families cooked together and made a big table. Of course, there were not many people in the hospital, only ten people. With the family members, there were less than twenty people.

"In the future, our hospital will have more than ten people, maybe twenty, thirty, fifty or sixty!"

"Including the family members, there could be hundreds of them!"

"It will be very lively. When the time comes, we will build all the houses around here for family members, and build another row of bungalows here. The two rows of houses will face each other and form a large courtyard in the future."

Qin Yanfang was dumbfounded: "Ah? Building a bungalow."

"Who can eat a fat man in one go?" Dean Hao painted a picture for Qin Yanfang: "Look, these two rows of bungalows... Imagine a rectangle. The long side is two rows of bungalows, and the wide side is here. Let's keep this area and build a building later."

"Xiao Qin, if you work hard for a few years, when our hospital is able to allocate buildings, you old veterans will definitely be the first batch."

"Let you draw lots first."

Qin Yanfang: “…”

Zhan Aiping patted her shoulder and said, "Just wait." You'll live in an apartment sooner or later.

Doctor Zhou laughed: "Xiao Qin, if you wait until you live in an apartment before getting married, you will end up being an old maid."

"The operating room is built on a small two-story building, right next to the pharmacy, and it is also surrounded by a yard. There is also a small two-story ward building... It is separated from here to separate the hospital and the family rooms."

"Let's build a bungalow here and hang a clock there. When it's time to go to work, find someone to ring the bell to prevent you guys from being lazy."

People from the entire hospital sat together in a lively atmosphere, without any formalities, and chatted about the future of the hospital. Although the conditions were difficult now, everything would eventually get better.

Zhan Aiping looked at the table full of food. She ate for a while and felt a little nauseous. After she finished eating, she gave herself two injections.

Zhan Aiping was sure that she was pregnant. She calculated the days and made sure that Gu Sheng would be free for half a day the next day. She asked him to accompany her to the hospital and told him that she might be a father.

Although she has already confirmed it, she still wants to let the modern machine confirm it again.

Gu Sheng came back late at night. Before Zhan Aiping could talk to him, Gu Sheng told her something first: "Wang Youli is coming over. Do you remember him?"

This guy was very long-winded about getting married. He finished his business trip first, took home leave and wedding leave, and only now got married and brought Xiao Shen here.

Zhan Aiping said: "He, remember, we met on the day of our wedding."

"Yes." Gu Sheng smiled brightly. He was very happy when he mentioned the wedding day.

"He will bring some people over tomorrow. If you are curious, you can go and meet them. I should have time to join in the fun." For some reason, Gu Sheng didn't really want to join in the fun, but he had arrived in time and couldn't find a reason not to go and take a look.

Zhan Aiping said: "You are busy, I am planning to go to the military hospital with you."

It’s free to go to the military hospital for check-up and medical treatment, and it would be a waste if you don’t see the doctor.

Gu Sheng: "You want to go find my sister?"

Zhan Aiping: "Can't you be smarter?"

Gu Sheng: “…?”

"You did it yourself."
