"It's not easy to find a satisfactory house close to the hospital. After buying it, you have to renovate it, and I don't know how long it will take. It may not be completed before your vacation is over."
"Don't worry about that. I'll ask my sister to find a suitable place, preferably one that you can move into directly. You can live in both places. You can live here when you're closer to work and go to the other place for rest."
Jiang Mengxue shook her head: "Don't bother yourself with that. All houses are state-owned now, and many families' properties have been confiscated. It's not a good thing to have too many houses. Besides, you still have a house in Beijing, which is enough for you to live in."
Gu Qingbei had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Actually, you don't have to worry. This is all within our means, and we have no problems with our jobs. It would be strange if we didn't have some assets.
But forget it if you don't buy here. I'll take you to Beijing when I have time. Even if you won't be staying long, you still have to get to know the place."
Jiang Mengxue thought so too. No one in the future would not be tempted when hearing about the Siheyuan. If the current situation was not wrong, she would be eager to invest all her fortune in it. It would take more than 20 years before it could be bought and sold freely. By then, she would have grandchildren when she comes back.
"What are you doing this afternoon? I have to go to the hospital to find a colleague to take my shift, otherwise I have to go to work on the 1st. I also want to see the performances on National Day. It must be very lively."
Gu Qingbei thought for a moment and said, "There's still a lot to do. This afternoon I have to call my parents to tell them about us, then call the army to submit my relationship and marriage reports, and then go to my second sister's place to tell her that she doesn't need to look for a house anymore. I'll also be visiting your house after the autumn harvest. I have to prepare for all this in advance."
There was indeed a lot to do. In the afternoon, Gu Qingbei sent Jiang Mengxue to the hospital entrance. He wanted to wait for her there, but Jiang Mengxue didn't know when she would be ready, so he let him go and do his own thing.
Jiang Mengxue planned to go to the office first to see if Li Fengjuan was there, but she was stopped by Xiao Wang just as she reached the nurse's station.
"Doctor Jiang, weren't you on vacation? Why are you back today? I didn't hear anything was wrong."
"I came to see Dr. Li for something. Is she here today?"
"In the operating room, I guess we'll have to wait a while. Doctor Jiang, didn't you know you were being transferred to the obstetrics and gynecology department? I heard the director was going to tell you when you came back from vacation. Is this why you came here?"
Jiang Mengxue really didn't know.
"Why are you suddenly transferring departments? Did the director tell you why?"
"The obstetrics and gynecology department is short of staff. Their department director has contacted Director Chen several times, but this time there's really nothing we can do. I heard they didn't take a holiday for the Mid-Autumn Festival, so there's no room for an extra person."
Jiang Mengxue thought about it and decided that instead of being busy in the emergency department, it would be better to go to the obstetrics and gynecology department and specialize in one thing.
"Thank you, Xiao Wang. I'll go find Director Chen first and ask about the specific arrangements."
I walked to Director Chen's office with ease. The door was not closed and Director Chen was drinking tea and reading a newspaper inside.
"Knock, knock, knock."
"Come in."
Director Chen looked up and saw that it was Jiang Mengxue and was a little confused.
"Doctor Xiao Jiang doesn't start work until the 1st? Why is he here today?"
Jiang Mengxue smiled and said, "I originally wanted to ask Doctor Li something, but then I heard that Director Chen wanted to transfer me to a better position, so I came over to ask."
"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be so well-informed. I was planning to ask you after you got to work."
He put down the newspaper and stood up, inviting Jiang Mengxue to sit on the sofa: "Director Ma from the obstetrics and gynecology department comes to see me every day. Although their department is not extremely busy, there is really no way to take turns to rest. She always asks me to find a suitable person to go over, and that's why I thought of you.
He turned around and poured a glass of water in front of Jiang Mengxue. Jiang Mengxue thanked him and took it with both hands.
"Although the emergency department is a good place to train people, it's not as good as having a doctor like Director Ma who is particularly proficient in one area. If you go to the obstetrics and gynecology department and follow Director Ma, it will be very helpful for you to pursue this field in the future. I also want to ask for your opinion. If you don't want to, the hospital will respect your choice."
Jiang Mengxue felt that this was a good idea. It was not a good idea for her to always stay in the emergency department. The important operations were performed by other doctors in turn, and she just helped out on the side. She could be scheduled for some simple minor operations, but that was just the result of practice making perfect.
She followed several doctors in turn, and she learned very little, so the doctors didn't dare to let her go forward easily.
"I have no objection, Director Chen. I'm honored to be able to study under Director Ma. However, it depends on whether Director Ma is willing to accept me. Besides, it's really difficult to get started if my major is not suitable."
"Why wouldn't you want to go? She came to me several times intending to have you go, but considering that you're still an unmarried girl, I was afraid you wouldn't want to go. Besides, what's there to be afraid of if your major isn't suitable? In the past, how many doctors and nurses dared to rush to the battlefield to treat the wounded after learning some simple bandaging techniques? They all enriched their knowledge through repeated learning.
How many doctors started this field in their twenties or thirties and are now experienced experts?
Jiang Mengxue didn't expect the director to be so flattered. How could she dare to compete with those people? But she wouldn't refuse: "Director, of course I'm willing to take such a good opportunity. However, I originally came here to change my shift. I've found a partner, and we're planning to go out and see a performance during the National Day holiday and get to know each other better. He's a soldier, and his vacation time is really short. If he's transferred to another department, how will I arrange my shift?"
Director Chen was a little surprised. He had never heard that Xiao Jiang was looking for a partner before. The news in this hospital was too out of touch.
"When did Xiao Jiang get a girlfriend? I didn't hear about it a few days ago."
