Chapter 303 Pie in the sky?
After Bai Yu sat down, there was no false greetings. She went straight to the point and stated the purpose of her visit today.
"I am here today for the coal mining team. Mining is very hard work. The miners who are on the front line of mining have a huge workload every day. As the weather gradually warms up, mining work becomes even harder. In summer, the weather is hot and the workers do heavy work. They are prone to getting sick and suffering from heat stroke, which is why doctors are very necessary."
Bai Yu paused, looked at Ning Xiyue with a slight smile on his face, and continued:
"Fortunately, we have a doctor like you in the brigade, and your medical skills are recognized by everyone. Therefore, I would like to hire you as a non-staff doctor for the mining team to help our workers in the mining team see diseases and prescribe some soup medicine to prevent heatstroke in the summer. Of course, you are only responsible for prescribing, and the canteen will prepare the rest."
Ning Xiyue raised her eyebrows. Was this a job for her?
She didn't say anything and continued to look at the woman in front of her who spoke steadily, with a calm expression, and without haste, as if everything was under her control.
"I'll pay you eight dollars a month and provide you with three meals a day in the cafeteria. If you agree, we can reach an agreement today."
Bai Yu paused after saying the last sentence, his fingers slightly clenched the corner of his clothes, emotions in his eyes. He looked at Ning Xiyue with expectation, quietly waiting for her answer.
Ning Xiyue was delighted when she heard about this benefit. She thought that she could save some money on food and earn some money at the same time.
But she still prefers being a barefoot doctor in the team now, where she has nothing to do and no one cares what she does.
But she was confused. The people from the coal mine team were also stationed here. If someone was sick, they could come to the clinic and she would not refuse. She did not only treat the members of the team. Could she refuse someone who came to see a doctor?
Ning Xiyue thought for a moment and said:
"You know I am a barefoot doctor in the team, and I am also an educated youth in the team. This job is no joke. I can't do whatever I want. I can't leave or do other things without the permission of my superiors. I like my current job very much and have no intention of quitting."
Ning Xiyue expressed her thoughts very clearly, and also wanted to find out the situation.
After finishing her words, she looked at Bai Yu opposite her. She just smiled without any expression of surprise and spoke calmly.
"It won't affect your current job. You're still a barefoot doctor and you'll still be working here. It's just that your patients will be more workers from our coal mine team. I've already discussed this with your team leader. There's no problem with him. As long as there's no problem with you, we'll make it happen."
How could such a good thing fall directly on her? Ning Xiyue was a little uncomfortable with it. Why didn't she believe it? Wasn't the coal mine team just giving her money?
Pie in the sky?
Bai Yu seemed to see the doubt in her heart, chuckled and said:
"The reason I'm looking for you is, first, I've heard that the whole team recognizes your medical skills. It's no exaggeration to say that they are full of praise. Second, Mayor Huang of your town specifically recommended you to me. Third, you are in this team, so it's close and convenient. We don't need to find another person, which can save some medical resources for our country."
These three points were all well-reasoned. The first one made Ning Xiyue happy, the second one involved familiar people who made her feel at ease, and the third one was something she couldn't refuse. She was also a non-staff member of the state and received a salary, so how could she refuse?
Ning Xiyue admired her for her ability to control people's emotions so accurately.
Having said this, her worries and doubts were immediately dispelled.
This was something that was already beneficial to her, so she had no choice but to accept it.
Ning Xiyue stood up and stretched out her right hand towards Bai Yu. She stared at Bai Yu with a smile that was twinkling in her eyes and spread to the corners of her mouth: "Happy cooperation."
Ning Xiyue finally understood at this time that people with skills are happy and popular everywhere. Once the skills are advanced, money will naturally come to them.
"Welcome aboard." Bai Yu stood up and returned the handshake. Endless smiles spread across her phoenix eyes, shining like glass and as if a bright pearl.
Ning Xiyue's eyes were wide open. Oh no, she was dazzled by her beautiful sister's smile.
It is true that time never defeats beauty. This Miss Bai looks so pretty when she smiles. She is as her name suggests, like a piece of warm and beautiful jade. It is not her looks that attracts her, but her aura that makes her unable to take her eyes away.
"Sister Bai, you look so beautiful when you smile." Ning Xiyue couldn't help but say what was in her heart.
Bai Yu smiled even more happily after hearing this, and his whole person became more real. The feeling of being unattainable disappeared and he seemed more approachable.
"Thank you. I now understand why you are so popular in this team. All the aunties on the team praise you. Your little words make people happy."
Ning Xiyue smiled and shook her head: "I am speaking from the bottom of my heart."
"It is precisely because you speak from the heart that makes people happy. You are a good child and everyone likes you."
Bai Yu spoke much more casually this time than before, and his movements and expressions were very relaxed.
At this moment, Ning Xiyue seemed to feel the authenticity of this person. Her previous appearance really made people afraid to approach her, but now her unconcealed laughter made her feel more down-to-earth.
After the discussion, Bai Yu did not go back to do the rest of the things, but continued chatting with Ning Xiyue. Ning Xiyue didn't have much to do, so it would be good to chat for a while to learn more about the mining team and Bai Yu.
The two had a very pleasant chat and became more familiar with each other.
During the conversation, Ning Xiyue found out that this Bai Yu was actually the engineer's wife of the cafeteria chef they talked about at noon today.
Ning Xiyue's stereotype of chefs made her picture a cheerful chef with a big belly, or a serious head chef who was as thin as a bamboo pole.
No matter how she thought about it, she thought this was a combination of beauty and the beast.
It was not until Bai Yu took out the photo from his wallet and showed it to her that she realized that stereotypes were unacceptable. One should not judge a person's appearance or whether he or she is good or bad based solely on his or her occupation. This is the most inaccurate thing.
The people in this photo don't look like wild beasts, they are clearly handsome men and beautiful women, a match made in heaven.
Even though he looked a little older than Bai Yu, he was very handsome and had an elegant temperament, which was completely different from the image she had in her mind. It was also hard to tell that he was a chef who was good at many types of cuisine.
This chef is not just an ordinary chef. He has been selected to cook at state banquets. How could she be so worthy of the opportunity to enjoy the cooking of such a super chef? It is really a bargain for them.
It can be seen that this master is a good man who loves his wife. He is willing to follow his wife and come to their team to be a small canteen chef just so that his wife can eat well.
Such love is enviable. Ning Xiyue looked at the photo and said, "Sister Bai, you two are so loving. I heard that the chef in our cafeteria came here for his wife."
"That's because your brother Zhou was worried that I wouldn't eat well. I used to forget to eat when I was busy, and over time my stomach got sick. So your brother Zhou later moved to our company to work, and he kept an eye on me all the time, and he couldn't be driven away."
When Bai Yu talked about Master Zhou, her eyes were tender and smiling, and her words that seemed like blame were full of love.
Ning Xiyue was forced to eat a handful of food. Thinking of Comrade Ji for a day, she decided to write a letter to Comrade Ji when she returned.
Bai Yu smiled apologetically and the topic returned to the normal track.
"In the future, when the weather is hot, if you need to make some heat-reducing soup or herbal tea for the workers in the team and the mining team, go find your brother Zhou and ask them to cook it for you in the canteen. It will be much more convenient and save a lot of time."
"Okay, I got it." There would definitely be such a request later, so she agreed without hesitation.
When they were almost done chatting, Bai Yuhua suddenly changed his tone. He moved closer to Ning Xiyue and whispered in a low voice about something that was somewhat unrelated to the previous topic.
