Idle Chats in the 60s

Jiang Mengxue dreamed that she would return to several decades ago. She decisively sold all her property and filled the warehouse space of the bracelet left by her grandmother.

When Gu Qingbe...

Chapter 62 Report

The two of them separated after finishing their work. Jiang Mengxue had to go to work today and had no time to go with him.

The department stores in the city have a more complete range of fabrics. Relying on the abundant money in his hand, Gu Qingbei bought things with his eyes closed. He bought all the fabrics that he liked and in nice colors.

Pure white, polka dots, and small checkered fine cotton cloth is suitable for making underwear or clothes for children.

Ministry of Labor, corduroy, khaki, black woolen, red woolen.

Because he bought so much and there were a lot of people watching him, Gu Qingbei could only explain that his fellow villagers in the countryside asked him to help bring it for them because it was not easy for them to come to the city.

One piece of cloth is thirty meters long, so I bought several pieces of cloth in total. I originally wanted to buy some cotton, but it was too much, so I planned to buy it in several installments.

I asked the staff to find a pocket to put it in so that no one would see it along the way.

He found a small cart to send the shopping back, while Gu Qingbei rode his bike to get the property certificate.

Jiang Mengxue went to her original office to get her things, including a white coat, notebook, teacup, and various miscellaneous items, which she packed into a large bag.

The obstetrics and gynecology department is on the third floor of the hospital. There is a pregnant woman climbing the stairs. She looks like she is about to give birth, but her birth canal has not yet opened and it is not time for her to enter the delivery room.

Jiang Mengxue went all the way to the director's office, and the doorplate read "Director of Obstetrics and Gynecology Ma Juanlan."

The door was open and there was no one inside. Jiang Mengxue planned to go to the nurse's station to ask first.

There was a young nurse at the nurse's station, writing something in her low voice.

Jiang Mengxue knocked on the table and asked, "Excuse me, is Director Ma here? I just went to the office and couldn't find her."

The young nurse looked up at Jiang Mengxue and saw that she was also wearing a white coat. The badge on her chest said "colleague from the emergency department." She thought that a patient was to be sent over and immediately stood up anxiously.

"Is there any pregnant woman here? Director Ma is in surgery right now, so it might be too late. I'll go get Doctor He."

Jiang Mengxue knew it was a misunderstanding when she saw the other person's hurried look, so she quickly grabbed the person who was about to run away.

"Hey, hey, what a misunderstanding. There's no patient here. I'm a newly transferred doctor, and I'm here to report to Director Ma."

The young nurse was stunned for a moment, then she reacted and patted her chest.

"I was so scared, I was worried all day long that something might happen to the mother.

Are you the new doctor? I think the head nurse mentioned you before, but I didn't expect you to be here so soon.

I've assigned you to Office Number 2. The empty desk on the left is yours. The other doctors may be in the ward right now, so I'll take you to the office to familiarize yourself with it."

"Okay, thank you for your help. My name is Jiang Mengxue. What's your name?"

"No problem, I'm free anyway. My name is Gao Yiyi, and I've only been working for a year. I heard there's a young and beautiful female doctor in the hospital. Could that be you?"

"If I were the only one here these past few months, that would be it."

Director Ma's surgery was not over yet, so Jiang Mengxue could only pack her things in the office. The other doctor in the office was not there either, so Jiang Mengxue did not stay in the office for long.

I left the office and went to find Gao Yiyi, intending to familiarize myself with the situation in the obstetrics and gynecology department first. From the moment I arrived on this floor, I felt that they were very busy. There were quite a lot of pregnant women coming for check-ups, most of whom were in advanced stages of pregnancy.

In fact, pregnant women nowadays do not come to the hospital for check-ups every month. There are no advanced machines such as B-ultrasound, so everything depends on the doctor's skills and experience.

"Doctor Xiao Jiang? Why are you here? I heard you were in the emergency department and wanted to see you, but I was afraid you were busy, so I didn't bother you."

As soon as Jiang Mengxue went out, she saw He Jingjing who came to check up accompanied by her mother. Tang He and his wife lived in the ear room of the main house, and He Dazhong and his wife lived in a main house next to it. The two rooms happened to be next to each other.

Tang He's parents are both from the countryside. He learned cooking skills from his master who prepared banquets since he was a child. Later, he saw that the factory canteen was recruiting workers, so he got a job with the help of his master. He Dazhong, as the canteen chef, introduced his daughter to him after a long period of observation. Although the two are not living together now, they have agreed to provide for their parents-in-law in their old age.

"Aunt Wang, are you here with Jingjing for the checkup? I just checked in at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department today and haven't seen the director yet. What's wrong with you?"

Wang Qun turned his head and looked around, seeming a little confused and not knowing how to start the conversation. He Jingjing also lowered her head and looked a little embarrassed.

Seeing them like this, Jiang Mengxue knew that it was not appropriate to say it in public.

"Well, let's go to the office first. There are too many people here and it's too noisy."

Jiang Mengxue turned around and led them to her office, and the mother and daughter hurriedly followed.

After entering the room, they pulled chairs for the two of them to sit down, and Jiang Mengxue also sat back in her seat.

"What do you want to see?"

Wang Qun hesitated for a moment and said, "Xiao Jiang, I brought Jingjing here today to check on her health and to see if it's a boy or a girl."
