The jade bracelet was placed in a wooden lacquer box with a layer of velvet underneath. It was a very beautiful jade green bracelet, the green was pure and beautiful, and the oily feeling came to the face. Zhan Aiping held it in her hand, and the green made the skin on the back of her hand look as white as cream.
"Where did you go to rob?" These days, every household hides jade, gold and other things. No one dares to dig them out until now. Maybe they are circulated privately. The price of such jade bracelets is not low. In the future, it can be worth the price of a small house in Shanghai.
Gu Sheng said: "I bought it from someone I know."
Zhan Aiping was curious: "Can you afford it with your pocket money?"
Gu Sheng hugged her and said, "You emptied all my private vaults."
After getting married, Gu Sheng quit smoking and hardly spent his monthly pocket money. When Gu Ze'an and his wife came, they left him some money. Together with his previous savings and the money he had borrowed in previous years, he pooled the money together to buy a jade bracelet for his wife.
Because this transaction could not be made public, he bought it privately at a low price.
No woman can refuse gold, silver, jade, and Zhan Aiping is no exception. She put the jade bracelet on her wrist, feeling sweet in her heart, but she said, "You told me in front of me that you hid your private money?"
Gu Sheng said shamelessly: "Old Wang said that a man must always hide some private money."
Zhan Aiping laughed: "Don't follow his example, he has corrupted people."
Gu Sheng: "Wife, I have a good family background and I can't learn to be bad."
Zhan Aiping laughed at him: "You are a fool. You hid your own private money and revealed it in front of your wife."
Gu Sheng smiled and hugged her from behind, burying his head in her neck and rubbing it: "I am afraid of my wife, am I not? It is a family tradition to be afraid of my wife. The rent money is being hidden more and more. I think it is not good. If I hide it any longer, it will be disastrous. I must report it to the leader."
"If my boss finds out about this, I'll be finished."
Zhan Aiping smiled and raised her hand to touch his head, praising him: "You actively reported yourself and cooperated in handing over the stolen goods. Well, you are a good comrade."
"No way." Gu Sheng was dissatisfied: "I'm obviously giving this as a gift to my leader."
"Bribing the leader is an even more serious crime."
Gu Sheng said righteously: "I gave it to my wife. What crime have I committed? There is no law that stipulates that you should arrest me."
"Wife, do you like it?"
Zhan Aiping turned her head with a smile and kissed him on the cheek: "I like it."
"Tsk tsk." Gu Sheng laughed: "As expected, you women all like this kind of thing that is useless except for being pretty."
Zhan Aiping: "Do you deserve a beating?"
Gu Sheng added: "I like it too."
"I've always wanted to buy you a jade bracelet. You'll look very beautiful wearing it. I'll use this bracelet to hold you tightly."
Zhan Aiping laughed and said, "This is a jade bracelet. It will break if touched. How can you hold it?"
Gu Sheng said: "If it breaks, you will be heartbroken and remember it for the rest of your life."
"Pingping, I see that the wind has changed in the past two years. It won't be the same in the future. Keep the jade bracelet your husband gave you well. Who knows, it may be worth a lot someday."
Zhan Aiping looked at him in astonishment: "Gu Laowu, Gu Laowu, I found that you—"
Gu Sheng smiled gently, "What's wrong?"
Zhan Aiping touched the jade bracelet on her hand and said, "I find that you have good vision and foresight."
Old Gu once gave her a set of jade jewelry. Could it be that he saved that money when he was young
"So, now you realize your husband has good taste?"
Zhan Aiping smiled and said, "You have vision and the talent of a prodigal son."
"Why keep the money?" Gu Sheng said indifferently, "Since I married a doctor, my family has never lacked food, clothing, food, shelter and transportation. Why not buy something else to gamble?"
"I also bought a few pieces of jadeite raw stones. I'll put them in a corner for now and we'll come back to them later."
Zhan Aiping: “You—”
"If you can get something good out of it, I'll give it to our daughter as a dowry."
Zhan Aiping: "You are such a good father, but what if it is just a few broken stones?"
Gu Sheng: "... I always feel that my luck won't be that bad."
Zhan Aiping: "I really envy your confidence, so just leave it alone."
Gu Sheng hugged her and rubbed her: "Wife, I really don't have a penny. You support me."
Zhan Aiping: "I will support you, support you, and I, your wife, will carry bricks to support you in the future."
Gu Sheng was puzzled: "Can you make money by moving bricks?"
Even if jade becomes more valuable in the future, it is not something that can be presented on the table now and cannot be bought and sold. It is just a beautiful piece of stone. The price of jade will rise only after the 1990s.
Zhan Aiping shook the jade bracelet on her hand and thought to herself that no matter how valuable this bracelet was, she would be reluctant to sell it.
Keep them all.
"Don't touch me first, I'll put the thing away, don't break it." Now this thing is the most valuable thing in their house.
Gu Sheng said in a big voice: "It's broken, it's broken. It was originally given to you as a personal accessory. The broken jade bracelet is to protect the owner's safety."
Zhan Aiping pointed out mercilessly: "If the jade bracelet is broken, it will only make both of us heartbroken."
Gu Sheng: "... I don't mind spending any amount of money on my wife."
Zhan Aiping said: "My heart aches."
"Take it out and wear it when you take photos. Don't bump it on weekdays, otherwise I will be heartbroken for the rest of my life." Zhan Aiping put the jade bracelet away. "When I get old and grow flowers and grass at home every day, I will wear the jade bracelet every day."
Gu Sheng said: "I'll make a few more for you. We won't feel bad if one gets broken."
"No." Zhan Aiping said firmly: "I am a miser. I will feel sad if I break one."
Gu Sheng sighed and said, "Then I'd better save money to buy you a gold bracelet. Jade ones are easy to break."
Zhan Aiping: "Only children make choices. I want them all, whether they are gold, jade, or silver."
Gu Sheng: “…”
He smiled and pinched her face, "How greedy."
"I have an old comrade's hometown. There was a family there that used to be in the jade business. You know the situation now... My comrade took care of that family."
Zhan Aiping said: "You just used your connections to buy a jade bracelet from someone. You are really brave."
Gu Sheng said: "Shh! So I asked you to keep your voice down."
Zhan Aiping patted his head and said, "You really took advantage of the situation to get something for nothing."
"It's better to contact each other less in the future. Don't do it a second time after doing it once, so that others won't find fault with you."
Gu Sheng smiled and said, "I see. Just this once, I want to make you happy. Our family doesn't run a jewelry store. What's the point of having so many bracelets?"
Zhan Aiping smiled and nodded: "Yes."
"It's better to put it aside for now and wear it in a few years."
Gu Sheng felt miserable: "I emptied my family's savings, and now they are just sitting in a box at home?"
I always feel like he's at a disadvantage.
Zhan Aiping: "Didn't you say that the wind direction has changed recently? I think there should be a big change in six or seven years. Don't be anxious, take your time."
"Good comrade, continue to save your private money."
Gu Sheng: "... Leader, you are encouraging me to make mistakes."
Zhan Aiping said: "With your little achievements, you hid your private money and gave it to me as a gift. I will just treat it as supporting a corrupt official. As time goes by, he will get fatter and fatter. He will slaughter himself and give it to me, and my treasury will be full."
"Be more greedy."
“I love that feeling of… wow, there’s this extra money coming out of nowhere.”
Gu Sheng: "What about the benefits? Do you have to give some benefits to support corrupt officials? I will work for you for nothing?"
"I'll give it to you at night, I'll give it to you at night. Put the child to sleep first."
Gu Sheng: “…”
Perfunctory, all perfunctory.
Zhan Aiping locked the jade bracelet into the box and turned around to see Gu Sheng, who was covered in black energy. She couldn't help laughing, so she walked over, put her arms around his neck, and kissed him on the lips: "I forgot to tell you, your wife is very happy, she likes this jade bracelet very much, she loves you very much."
"You've been away for so long, and the two brats haven't missed you. She's the only one at home who misses you every day."
Gu Sheng was very satisfied with her coaxing: "Finally I heard some truth from your Zhan Da Pingping. You are so stubborn. You clearly miss me but you say you don't."
Zhan Aiping: "Aren't you just being stubborn?"
Gu Sheng shook his head and denied it: "I'm not tough, how about you try to kiss me?"
Zhan Aiping: “…”
"You make me feel scared the way you are now." Zhan Aiping looked at Gu Sheng, who had turned dark but looked stronger, and she was really frightened.
Gu Sheng pulled her into his arms: "What are you afraid of? What is there for our Vice President Zhan to be afraid of? You are the Vice President."
"I'm afraid of being pounced on by a hungry tiger."
Gu Sheng said honestly: "You are right to worry."
"I remember you said you wouldn't go to work tomorrow."
Zhan Aiping: “!”
What is this guy planning
"You always told me to be gentler before, but... we've been apart for a while, so we have to be a little less gentle."
"Isn't that right, Vice President Zhan?"
Zhan Aiping threw the cloth tiger covered with the child's saliva at him and said, "I'm running away from home. I don't want to live with you anymore. I'm going to live in the Jiang family—"
"It's too late." Gu Sheng smiled, revealing a row of white teeth, "You can't leave this door today."
"Even if you're angry, I still have to do it once."
“You have to know that corrupt officials have huge appetites and it is difficult to satisfy them.”
Zhan Aiping: “…”
*
The next morning, Zhan Aiping slept until noon and did not get up. Now she hates corrupt officials the most in her life.
Yesterday's event was just as spectacular as the first one.
The two babies were brought to her side, and the brother and sister were playing happily with the "enemy". Yesterday the "enemy" had killed many people, and now was the time for them to be "feeling very proud".
Gu Sheng was wearing casual clothes and teasing his brother and sister with a small red persimmon. The two silly siblings, Sweet and Sour Pork and Little Tangyuan, were made to grin from ear to ear by him.
Zhan Aiping turned over, not wanting to watch this scene. She was angry: "Silly boy, you can't tell friend from foe."
Gu Sheng: "You also gave birth to this stupid kid."
Gu Sheng placed the two little worms next to Zhan Aiping and rolled onto the bed.
"Daughter-in-law, don't be angry. I'll let you do whatever you want today and for the next two or three days."
Gu Sheng has little to do these days and just needs to deal with the paperwork.
Zhan Aiping groaned a few times. She lay on the bed, thinking about how to torture him. Zhan Aiping turned over and her whole body seemed to have gained three times more weight and became heavier everywhere.
She raised her legs to kick him but she had no strength.
Gu Sheng combed her hair with his fingers: "I'll tell you something good."
Zhan Aiping didn't give him a good look: "What good news?"
"Old Wang came here just now. He, thank you. He and his wife sent you some Dacron fabric. Let's ask Vice President Zhan to make you another beautiful dress."
Zhan Aiping: "... Lao Wang has been here, Shen Liqing's husband?"
"Yes, I came to thank you. My wife has worked so hard. It's not easy to take care of two women who have just given birth. He said that he and his wife will treat you to a special meal in the future to thank you."
Zhan Aiping: "Lao Wang came and didn't see me. What did you say to him?"
Gu Sheng touched his nose and said, "I said my wife hasn't gotten up yet."
Zhan Aiping: "Go away."
"You were lying. I said that Vice President Zhan was out. That's why she didn't sleep in. She didn't get out of bed."
Zhan Aiping: "You are still as annoying as you were when you were a kid. I want to beat you up whenever I see you now. We have been married for just over a year and you are back to your old ways."
"Write me a letter of guarantee sometime."
Gu Sheng had a good attitude and apologized sincerely: "Wife, I was wrong."
Zhan Aiping: "You were wrong, but you still dared to do it. Will you dare to do it again next time? Don't deny it. This is what you told your dad when you were a child."
Gu Sheng: “…”
"You're just too excited to see my wife. Don't worry, I'm not talking nonsense."
Zhan Aiping fell on the pillow: "You are sensible."
"Go cook, I'm hungry." Zhan Aiping raised her foot and kicked him, "I don't want to drink porridge, I want to eat, I want to eat a table full of delicious food."
Gu Sheng smiled and kissed her on the forehead, "Listen to the leader."
Zhan Aiping stayed in bed for a while, then finally got up. Just as Gu Sheng said, Wang Youli came and gave her some blue Dacron fabric, just enough to make one or two skirts.
She put the Dacron cloth away and was not in a hurry to make clothes. Zhan Aiping had made many skirts this year, and making new skirts now was really "too luxurious" and too eye-catching" with so many eyes staring at her in the yard.
When she finished combing her hair, Jiang Meihui came with some things. It was Jiang Meihui's first time to visit Zhan Aiping's house. She looked around for a while. Zhan Aiping saw her and invited her in.
Jiang Meihui smelled of beans. She was here to deliver tofu. The tofu was fresh, tender, smooth, and white as jade. It didn't smell like beans at all, only a strong bean fragrance.
Zhan Aiping opened it and took a look. She liked it very much: "Thank you, your cooking skills are very good, Lao Gu, we are having tofu today!"
Zhan Aiping called Gu Sheng over and greeted Jiang Meihui, "This is the one from my family. You didn't see him yesterday, did you?"
Jiang Meihui looked at Gu Sheng's face several times. Gu Sheng was very "well-behaved" today. He even came out wearing an apron and did not take it off. He bowed his head and acted humble in front of Zhan Aiping. He obediently took the vegetables and went to the kitchen, looking like an honest man who "allowed to be bullied".
Jiang Meihui said to Zhan Aiping: "You found a very good partner."
"I also want to find someone with a good temper and who can work at home."
Zhan Aiping laughed: "My boyfriend has a bad temper."
"I can tell." Jiang Meihui said, "I've been through this before." "Your man has a fierce face and a fierce aura. Even if he has a bad temper outside, as long as he has a good temper in front of you, that's enough."
"If you have a good temper in front of everyone, you are like a piece of soft tofu! You may smell good, but you will be hated by others."
"Doctor Zhan, I'm very stingy. I don't want my man to be gentle to other women."
Zhan Aiping was amused by her: "I am also very stingy. Not only am I stingy, I am also a jealous person. If he dares to flirt with other women, I will ride on his head and strangle him to death."
Jiang Meihui smiled and had two shallow dimples. Although she had a big face, the dimples on her face were very small and shallow, like two cute little bells, which made people want to poke them. Now her face was much whiter than before. "Yes, you have to be so fierce to control men."
"My sister-in-law is just too soft-tempered. This is not okay. Fortunately, my brother is a good man."
"If you have a weak temper, you will be bullied."
Zhan Aiping said a few more words to her, and Jiang Meihui was about to leave. "I'm busy going back to take care of my sister-in-law. Doctor Zhan, I'll talk to you next time."
"good."
Before leaving, Jiang Meihui smiled and whispered to Zhan Aiping, "Doctor Zhan, your man is really good-looking and handsome."
Zhan Aiping: “?”
Are you saying that he is really good-looking, or that he has a "big head"
After Jiang Meihui left, Zhan Aiping strolled over to Gu Sheng and looked him up and down. Gu Sheng was cooking seriously with his brows lowered, his hands were strong and powerful, and he stood straight. There was an indescribable attraction in his every move.
"Wife, the Jiang family also sent some canned food. If you are hungry, go and eat something."
Zhan Aiping rubbed her nose: "I'm not hungry yet, I want to eat what you cook."
Zhan Aiping: "... How long have I just gotten up? Am I clinging to you?"
"Okay, I was wrong."
The two children fell asleep. Zhan Aiping leaned against him and hugged him from behind. She missed Gu Sheng very much. They hadn't seen each other for such a long time. When they met suddenly, she was reluctant to part.
The words she spoke were nasal: "Don't talk. I don't want to argue with you today."
Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing and said, "Wife, I don't want to argue with you, but please don't delay me from cooking. Otherwise, the food will get burnt. What are we going to eat today?"
"Look, with you by my side, my hands are shaking and I'm adding more salt."
Zhan Aiping: "…You blame me for your shaking hands? If it's salty, you can eat it yourself."
Gu Sheng threw down the spatula, turned around and hugged Zhan Aiping in his arms, and carried the whole child back into the house. The two children were still asleep in the playpen bed. To take precautionary measures, Zhan Aiping laid a soft quilt beside the bed to prevent them from falling.
"Our Vice President Zhan will stay here to look after the children for a while."
Zhan Aiping looked after the child for a while, and then someone else came to visit. It was Political Commissar Li's niece, Li Qiuling, a young woman in her twenties. She did not wear her hair in a braid, but had shoulder-length hair. She had a pretty face, and wore a floral short-sleeved shirt and blue trousers, white socks, and black leather shoes, which were polished clean and shiny.
Like Jiang Meihui, this person also came to find a partner, but she did not come to Zhan Aiping to introduce her to a partner, but was eyeing her family's things.
She had noticed the Dacron skirts that Zhan Aiping had before, and today she saw that the Wang family had some and sent some to Zhan Aiping, so she came to ask for some: "Doctor Zhan, you have made several new clothes this year. We ordinary people can't afford such luxury. One or two are enough."
"I also want to make two sets of Dacron skirts. I'll give you the cotton fabric and some money in exchange."
Zhan Aiping glanced at the red cotton cloth she brought. It must have been there for many years. She didn't get angry when she saw it, but just refused, "I'm sorry, this can't be exchanged. The Wang family just sent me something to thank me. If I turn around and exchange it, how can I meet his family in the future?"
Li Qiuling said: "What I gave you is yours. Since it's a thank you, you can give it to whoever you want."
"Vice President Zhan, please don't be so stingy."
Zhan Aiping said: "I'm not stingy, but I won't trade with you. My family doesn't need cotton cloth for the time being. This is something they just sent me. I owe them a favor, so I have to keep it."
Li Qiuling said anxiously, "What's the point of keeping this? Just give it to me. I'm still young and want to make a new skirt to date."
"Doctor Zhan, this piece of red cloth of mine is in great condition. You won't suffer any loss if you exchange it with me."
Zhan Aiping said with a smile: "I also like your piece of red cloth. You can keep it for your wedding. Red is festive."
Li Qiuling: "I think red is vulgar and it's embarrassing to wear it in public."
Zhan Aiping: "It just so happens. I also think red is vulgar and I can't wear it in public."
"I'm in the hospital, and I see blood all the time, so I can't stand seeing anything red."
Li Qiuling's face was not very good: "You—"
Zhan Aiping asked, "You think red is vulgar, so you want to exchange it with me? Who the hell are you?"
"How many years have you kept this red cloth? Who knows if there is a hole in it? Do you dare to shake it open and take a look?"
Red cloth is valuable these days. Since Li Qiuling is planning to go on a blind date and get married, no one would complain about having too much red cloth. Why would she exchange it with him? If it is not a festive day, wearing red cloth will be too eye-catching. Generally, few people wear it.
If Li Qiuling really wanted to exchange cloth with her, she should have changed to some blue or green cloth that was usually used, but she singled out the red cloth, so I guess there was something fishy going on.
"If you don't want to change it, then that's fine. But you're still so aggressive. I'm leaving." Li Qiuling turned and left, holding the red cloth.
She really didn't dare to shake out the red cloth in front of Zhan Aiping. This red cloth was her dowry, and it was got into by a mouse and urinated on. The urine stains had dried and could not be washed clean. When she smelled it carefully, she always felt a strong smell of urine. It was a pity to throw it away, but she felt disgusted to keep it, so she thought about exchanging the cloth with someone else.
If the replacement was successful, even if Zhan Aiping found something wrong later, she couldn't replace it back. Besides, it was a rat that did it, so she could pretend that she didn't know about it beforehand and let Zhan Aiping suffer in silence.
Li Qiuling left with the red cloth in her arms. Gu Sheng brought the dishes over and found Zhan Aiping standing there in a daze. "What's wrong with you?"
Zhan Aiping rubbed her nose, and the smell was diluted by the aroma of the food. "This niece of Political Commissar Li is really not a good person."
"What's wrong?" Gu Sheng said with a smile, "I was just thinking that my wife is so amazing. So many people come to her house all day long, all to give her gifts."
Zhan Aiping said, "It would be nice if they really came to give me gifts, but there are also people who come to take advantage of me. The cloth that Li Zhengwei's niece brought has a strong smell. I didn't smell it carefully just now. No wonder she waited until we were cooking. What kind of cloth do you think she wanted to exchange with me?"
Gu Sheng said: "Just don't give it to her."
"I really hate this kind of shady talk. They speak politely but are actually trying to take advantage of you. They smile but don't speak human language. They deliberately provoke you and make you angry. It's obviously she who is unreasonable, but if you get angry and curse at her, it will be like you are crazy and unreasonable."
Gu Sheng said: "My wife has become smart, so what are you going to do?"
"What should I do? The crying child gets the milk. I'm going to complain to Director Li to prevent her from making up stories about me. Oh, and I'm going to talk to Doctor Sun too."
After lunch, Zhan Aiping went to see Director Li. Director Li had also given birth to a boy. She had originally wanted to visit her. After giving her some sugar cakes, Zhan Aiping told Director Li about this.
Director Li said, "This niece of the Li family is really bad at being a human being. She was very picky when I introduced her to a date before, and she thought this one was not good and that one was not good. Now she even brought a piece of cloth stained with rat urine to exchange for a good cloth with you. She is really amazing."
"If anyone knows about this, she won't be able to find a partner here. Do you want to marry a wife like this and let her go around offending people?"
"That's perfect. No one wants her after all her complaints. I'll ask Lao Zhang to talk to Doctor Sun."
Doctor Sun is a big mouth. Once he knows something, many people will know it.
Doctor Sun is a troublemaker now. He is an old veteran and says different things to different people. He likes to talk, but he won't let others catch him. He is not afraid of offending people.
There are also many people who ask him to introduce them to someone.
After returning from Director Li's visit, Zhan Aiping and her husband spent the entire night in love. The next day, Vice President Zhan went to work with his family.
Gu Sheng held the two children and followed her, like a pair of generals. Zhan Aiping dragged a small stroller and led the father, daughter and three children into the car.
Many sisters-in-law in the car were paying attention to their family. Zhan Aiping didn't chat with them much. After getting off the car, Gu Sheng put the two children in the stroller. Zhan Aiping smiled and said, "Hold them less, I'm afraid they will cling to you and won't want to get off."
"Because when you leave later, you'll cry and make a fuss to be held by your dad."
Gu Sheng: "Dad only loves to hug Mom."
"Are these two kids so attached to their dad? They miss their mom more. Look, they are staring at you without blinking."
Zhan Aiping smiled and said, "I'll leave it to you to look after the child today."
"Don't let me down, Comrade Gu."
Gu Sheng sighed: "I'll try my best."
"You two idiots, remember to give daddy face, don't cry or make a fuss, let's not delay mom from going to work. Your mom is the vice president and she manages a lot of people."
Zhan Aiping snorted twice: "I always feel that you are bragging about yourself. You manage more people under you. I am amazing, so are you even more amazing?"
Gu Sheng said: "You doctors save lives and heal the wounded. That's noble, great, and amazing."
Zhan Aiping: "Don't flatter here. If you have something to say, just speak openly and honestly."
"Say you're proud of me."
Gu Sheng: "... You are proud of me."
Zhan Aiping despised him: "If you can't even flatter, you've been a corrupt official for nothing."
Gu Sheng approached with a flattering smile: "Will you allow me to continue to be greedy?"
Zhan Aiping: "Don't talk nonsense in public, shhh!"
"Okay." Gu Sheng hugged his son, "Let's pee--"
The little pot-baked pork peed politely. Gu Sheng looked at the urine that accidentally stained his hand and was speechless: "..."
Zhan Aiping couldn't help laughing: "Don't pee in front of your son."
"You're still peeing, your daughter is about to pee too - and she did."
The couple went to the hospital and changed the baby's diaper. "I've arranged a schedule for the two idiots. Remember to feed them when they are hungry. Don't wait for them to pee on their own. You can coax them to pee. I think you are very talented..."
"Yes, yes, I have talent. It's because we are father and daughter and have such a close rapport."
Gu Sheng pushed the stroller and took his two kids for a walk in the hospital. Compared with the past, this hospital was more luxurious and had a lot more medical staff, not just five or six doctors.
When the young nurses saw Zhan Aiping, they all greeted her happily. There were more than a dozen new people in the hospital, and the total number of people in their hospital exceeded 20. It was much busier than before. The family rooms were almost full, and single rooms could not be allocated. These single nurses lived in pairs in one room.
But they had no money to build a new building, so Dean Hao could only make a painful decision: "Let's add another row of bungalows."
It is more difficult to build a building, but a brick and tile house is much simpler and has a lower cost. There are still some materials left from before, so I asked people to come and help, and it was built in a few days, just like the houses in the village.
When building a house in the village, there is no need to hire any labor. As long as you have good relationships with people, you can get the young and strong people in the village to help you, and the house will be built in no time.
"When the guidance team from the county comes in a few days, they will be arranged in the single rooms on the third floor. There are only one or two rooms left. It's really worrying. There are too many people and there is not enough space." Dean Hao was very anxious.
"Now that our hospital has expanded, we don't see as many patients, so we need to work hard to improve efficiency."
Their hospital is paid by the state, so even if they don't improve their efficiency, their salaries will not be reduced. But Director Hao is working very hard at the moment and cannot accept the hospital making a loss.
Zhan Aiping persuaded him: "President Hao, please don't worry. This is just the beginning. We are not familiar with the equipment yet. If so many patients come, it will be troublesome if we can't provide good treatment."
Dean Hao said: "I said the wrong thing. How can everything in a hospital be for the sake of profit? The hospital is to treat patients and save lives, so the level of treatment should be improved..."
Zhan Aiping nodded: "Yes, this group of new doctors still need to undergo several training sessions."
"They just got here and need to adapt a lot."
Two new surgeons have arrived. Currently they are only doing simple debridement and wound suturing. They are not doing very well and need Zhan Aiping to teach them step by step.
One of them was so ambitious that he was thinking about performing surgery on the person.
These two new doctors are quite interesting. One has a big head and the other has a small head. They look like Big Head Son and Small Head Dad. People in the hospital love to laugh when they see them.
Two heads, one is a big ball like a basketball, and the other is a small ball like a rugby. It doesn't seem like anything special when viewed separately, but it's fun to put them together and stand together.
It just so happened that they sat together during the meeting.
Zhan Aiping thought that Jiang Meihui liked guys with big heads, and maybe she would like Chen Lihe, who had a big head, but this guy was new, and her opinion on his character was another matter, so she wouldn't introduce him to someone blindly.
Compared with Chen Lihe, Zhan Aiping appreciates Liu Sheliang, who has a smaller head. Liu Sheliang is more serious and down-to-earth, but his small head does not meet Jiang Meihui's requirements.
When Zhan Aiping went to find him, he was still practicing sewing banana peels. He tied the knots very quickly and his hands flew.
Zhan Aiping's surgical skills are average, not even close to her skills in traditional Chinese medicine. Or it can be said that her basic skills are very solid, but when it comes to specific surgical details, she cannot compare to experienced surgeons. She cannot perform too complicated specialized surgeries. After all, a true surgeon is one who has performed countless operations.
When she was a student, she also did endless suturing exercises... The teacher once said that she was the most talented student, and she has always been brooding over this matter, but a person's energy is limited after all.
Pick up the scalpel again? I'm afraid I can't pick it up again.
She has completely transformed into a Chinese medicine doctor.
Just like her book “Surgical Skills”, which she started writing almost two years ago and still hasn’t been finished, but her “Science Stories” are being written very quickly, one article after another, because she doesn’t have much practical experience in surgery, so what can she write
Asking her to give up her rich experience in traditional Chinese medicine, go back to the operating table and start all over again is like picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons. It is unnecessary.
Even though a new operating room was built in the hospital, she ultimately chose to stay in the Chinese medicine pharmacy.
She chose Traditional Chinese Medicine.
After talking to Liu Sheliang for a few words, Zhan Aiping returned to Gu Sheng, who was staying in her office. Gu Sheng picked up her nameplate and looked at it for a few seconds: "Are you still working in the Chinese medicine pharmacy? Are you still a Chinese medicine doctor?"
Zhan Aiping nodded: "Yes, I, your wife, am an old and respected Chinese medicine practitioner."
"Highly respected?"
"Old Chinese doctor?"
Gu Sheng had a mysterious expression that said, "You are just bragging." "If you want to become a respected traditional Chinese medicine doctor, you may have to wait another 40 to 50 years."
"Old Chinese doctor, you have to get older first, right?"
Zhan Aiping: "I won't grow old. I want to be young forever."
Gu Sheng couldn't help but laugh: "You are a stubborn and ageless 'old Chinese doctor'."
Zhan Aiping: “…”
"If you want to be respected, you should become a grandmother first. Let our little sweet and sour pork work hard to give you a grandson. When the time comes, our ageless Doctor Zhan will take the little grandson out to practice medicine. If people doubt your youth, you can say that my grandchildren are already this old..."
"Our little Tangyuan should also work harder. If she can't be a grandmother, she can at least be a grandmother. Bringing her grandson with her can also increase your credibility as a traditional Chinese medicine doctor."
Zhan Aiping: "... Then I have to pin my hopes on my children. As soon as they reach adulthood, I will urge them to get married and give me grandchildren as soon as possible to increase my generational status?"
Gu Sheng nodded: "Yes, that's right."
"Forget it." Zhan Aiping pinched her son's sweet and sour pork hand, "It seems that your Gu family's ancestral tradition of late marriage is hopeless."
Gu Sheng said: "People always have to have some hope, so you should work harder."
Zhan Aiping: "Don't use these crooked methods, I can convince people with my honest medical skills."
"Look at you, Mr. Gu, you have very improper thoughts. You are a party member. Look at you, you have just become a father for a short time, and you are dreaming of becoming a grandfather. You are so happy."
"You're encouraging me to get married, why don't you take action yourself?"
"I don't do anything human."
Gu Sheng smiled and touched his nose: "It's their fault that they don't understand what I'm saying. I can't do anything now."
The two little babies who couldn't understand what people were saying looked up at their parents.
Sweet and sour pork and small glutinous rice balls opened their mouths and howled loudly, and they also joined the "family discussion".
The pot-fried pork howled: "Ah—"
Little Tangyuan had a random conversation with him, and the two of them performed a duet together.
The two idiots were talking to each other very enthusiastically.
Zhan Aiping raised her eyebrows: "Look at your son, isn't he talking now? Isn't he speaking human language? He is chatting with your daughter. Gu Sheng, do you understand human language?"
Gu Sheng touched his head and said, "I don't understand. I don't understand the high-level language your son and daughter are talking about. Who made me the lowest class in this family? You are a mother, so you must understand. Can you tell me what your son and daughter are talking about?"
Zhan Aiping: "They are saying that Dad is dreaming."
Gu Sheng: "… She's obviously saying that mom is bragging."
"You are the one bragging. Your whole family is bragging."
Gu Sheng laughed: "You are the only one in my family."
Zhan Aiping slapped his ugly face away and stared at the young son and daughter in the stroller. The two little ones had chubby cheeks and had grown a little bit recently, but their little faces were still chubby and particularly adorable.
She remembered her wish when she was reborn, to pick up the scalpel again and remarry her mortal enemy. She thought it was too simple at the time, and now she found that many things were not as she wished.
Some regrets from youth will just be regrets; incompleteness is also a kind of beauty.
However, a goal was achieved after all.
"Your wife has the greatest talent in Chinese medicine. I am a Chinese medicine genius!" After saying that, Zhan Aiping raised her hand and rubbed Gu Sheng's hair hard.
Gu Sheng grabbed her hand and said, "Do you just touch a man's head casually?"
"You can brag if you want to, why do you have to make a move? Your husband, son, and daughter don't stop you from bragging, my talented Chinese medicine wife."
Zhan Aiping said: "Don't always accuse me of bragging."
"I'm not urging you on. If you can achieve all your boasts, you will be awesome."
"No matter how powerful you are, you are still my wife."
Zhan Aiping said with satisfaction: "You finally understand something with your foul mouth."
"Oh, I just don't know how to tell my godfather. He sent me so much information, but he still doesn't know that his student has become a Chinese medicine doctor." This is why Zhan Aiping was embarrassed to see Teacher Sun again.
Gu Sheng nodded: "Yes, you are in trouble. You betrayed your master. How did you become a Chinese medicine doctor? I seem to have heard that surgeons don't trust Chinese medicine the most."
Zhan Aiping: "Gu Sheng, you are the best at exaggerating things, right? Stop adding insult to injury."
Gu Sheng smiled and stroked her hair: "Pingping, just do what you want to do. Don't do what others expect you to do. Too many things will shake you."
"I found that my wife is a little silly. If someone treats you well, you want to meet their expectations as much as possible. You set high standards for yourself and are afraid of disappointing others."
"No one is perfect, and many things don't go as we wish. Don't be too strong."
"You have already made up your mind about what you really want to do, right?"
“Do what you like to do, regardless of whether you have talent or not. Be happy whether you succeed or not. Don’t live to meet other people’s expectations.”
