The director continued, "It is common to take care of colleagues in need during the shift scheduling, not just in our department. You have been enjoying it all these years, and now it is the turn of other colleagues. Don't tell me it is unfair! If you think it is unfair, how many times have you taken a break like this before? I will make it up to every colleague! Do you think this is fair?"

Zou Min: “…”

When Jiang Xia came over after using the toilet, she saw Ruan Tang standing there motionless. She didn't call her, but walked closer, and then she heard some conversations in the office.

When Ruan Tang saw her coming, she said, "Wait a moment, I still have something to tell the director and then I can leave."

After saying that, Ruan Tang walked forward and knocked on the office door.

"Come in."

Zou Min heard Ruan Tang's voice outside the door and looked towards the office door.

Ruan Tang opened the door and walked in as if nothing had happened.

Zou Min glanced at Ruan Tang, not knowing whether she had heard it or not.

But what if she heard it? She also hoped that Ruan Tang would hear it and take the initiative to not rest like this every Saturday and Sunday, which was so selfish.

Ruan Tang's frequent rest like this will affect the work and rest of other colleagues.

Especially since March and April are the rainy season, the hospital will have many patients and will be very busy! She just got married and is resting now. But when she gets pregnant and has a baby, there will be a long time. Will she have to be taken care of by the whole department?

When I first got married, I didn’t rest like this. I only started to rest like this after I had children.

The director said to Zou Min, "If there is no problem, you can leave now."

Then he smiled and asked Ruan Tang: "You haven't finished get off work yet? What's the matter?"

When Zou Min passed by Ruan Tang, he glanced at her.

Ruan Tang simply ignored her and explained the patient's condition to the director.

*On the way back home, Jiang Xia and Ruan Tang drove back. Jiang Xia asked, "That colleague was always giving you trouble? It felt like she was targeting you."

Ruan Tang shook her head after hearing this: "No, it's not a problem, I just can't accept that I can rest so many days. I used to have too much free time, and I had nothing to do at home on days when I didn't have to go to work. When my colleagues were busy, I would help them. Now that I'm married, the director takes care of me and tries to schedule me to have two or three days off in a row, as compensation for the fact that I used to cover for my colleagues, so she couldn't rest like me on Saturdays and Sundays, and she just has a problem with that."

Their hospital is not open to the public, so there are not many patients. There are five doctors in the pediatric department, and they take turns to work in the outpatient, emergency and inpatient departments. The other colleagues take care of her. Knowing that she has just gotten married and her partner does not live in the city, they have no objection to the director's scheduling. After all, Ruan Tang has indeed helped many colleagues cover for shifts in the past two or three years since she came here. They don't even need to change shifts, and she just goes to work for them.

Although Ruan Tang has always had a rather aloof personality and doesn't usually hang out with her colleagues, whenever a nurse or doctor asks her to help cover a shift, she will help, because she can do a nurse's job anyway.

Even when colleagues from the Internal Medicine Department asked Ruan Tang to help cover their shifts, she would help. As long as she knew how, she would help.

So everyone had no objection to Ruan Tang’s rest arrangements.

Only Zou Min has an objection.

"It's her business if she has any opinions. I'll take my leave. I don't care if she has any opinions. She has to keep them to herself. Our hospital requires absolute obedience to the superiors' arrangements." Ruan Tang decided to ask the director next month to work the night shift for two consecutive Fridays, rest on Sunday, and work the night shift on Monday! She was so angry! "Really, don't worry about her." Jiang Xia agreed with this.

Jiang Xia was driving and talking to Ruan Tang when suddenly two people rushed out of a roadside guesthouse. (End of this chapter)
