Chapter 40 Rejected Again
After confirming that the medical clinic in the camp wouldn't let her work there, Jiang Ning didn't linger and left the clinic.
She planned to visit the clinic not far from the residential compound when she walked back to her family compound later.
She had also considered the clinic the old man she met while gathering herbs on the mountain mentioned yesterday, but the clinic was too far away, five miles away. In addition, there was the distance from her own yard to the entrance of the residential compound, which would take her nearly an hour to walk.
The road we take to leave will pass by the training ground.
Jiang Ning looked into the training field.
Shen Mo was dressed in a neat training uniform, the belt cinching his lean waist. He had his hands behind his back, and his military boots patrolled the field.
Every now and then he would shout a name, his voice deep and stern, a solemnity she had never heard before at home, which made Jiang Ning shudder.
She would be startled, let alone the soldiers he trained.
Jiang Ning leaned against the fence for a while and looked around. So many biceps, so many abs.
Slurp, slurp.
Someone spotted Jiang Ning and tried to wink at Shen Mo. Seeing his winking, Shen Mo said coldly, "Yang Zhengtu, add ten sets to the obstacle course."
Yang Zhengtu: "..."
'later. '
Yang Zhengtu mouthed a sentence.
Shen Mo turned around in confusion, and saw Jiang Ning leaning on the railing.
Jiang Ning didn't interfere with his training, nor did she speak or raise her hand to greet him.
Shen Mo's expression changed for a moment, but only for a fleeting instant. When he turned to look at the soldiers again, his face was once again stern and impartial.
Shen Mo: "Add twenty more sets of obstacle courses to Yang Zhengtu's course."
I'm really being unnecessary to remind you.
Everyone else was secretly laughing their heads off, but they were trying hard to suppress their laughter. They definitely didn't want to add another twenty obstacle courses.
Shen Mo suddenly said, "The rest of you, get down on the spot and do one hundred push-ups."
Soldiers: "..."
Jiang Ning looked at the obstacles in the training field. She couldn't jump over them even with her legs kicking, and there were also mud pits. As for push-ups, she would have a hard time doing ten.
Looking at the man giving orders on the field.
Hmm... He's really handsome.
She's a completely different person compared to when she's at home.
Seeing so many people listening to him, Jiang Ning knew that this was a sign of trust. Shen Mo had the ability to convince people, which was why he had reached his current position.
Everyone lay down, no more abs to see, so Jiang Ning didn't linger and turned to leave the training ground.
After leaving the camp, Jiang Ning went directly to the clinic outside the family compound.
People eat grains and other foods, and they will always get some illnesses, big or small. Other places may be deserted, but hospitals are definitely not.
As soon as Jiang Ning arrived at the clinic, she found the clinic's manager and asked if they were hiring.
The other party was clearly taken aback when they saw Jiang Ning, and then asked her what she could do as usual. Jiang Ning explained what she could do.
When she said she knew basic nursing skills, the other party nodded and asked her to come here for a trial day tomorrow. If she was satisfactory, they would formally hire her.
Jiang Ning nodded in agreement, then left the clinic and went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
She also needs to buy some things from the supply and marketing cooperative to make medicinal oil.
Jiang Ning didn't notice that a woman walked into the clinic as soon as she stepped out.
After buying things at the supply and marketing cooperative and returning home, crush the herbs that have been drying in the sun all day and start making medicinal oil. Fry the herbs until they turn slightly black, then remove them from the oil. After removing the herbs, add crushed borneol and camphor, and finally stir well.
Pour the medicated oil into a container and let it cool before using.
That evening, as soon as Shen Mo got home, he asked Jiang Ning about her job at the military base. He was somewhat disappointed to hear that it hadn't gone through.
But Jiang Ning comforted him, saying that it was normal for people not to want her because she didn't have a good education.
"That's not normal, it's that they lack vision." Shen Mo was not happy.
Seeing that he was genuinely unhappy, and also for her own sake, Jiang Ning propped her head up to distract him, "I went to the clinic outside the family compound and asked. They told me to go for a trial period tomorrow and wait for my good news."
"Watching you train today, you looked tired and exhausted under the sun. You were quite fierce on the training field," Jiang Ning said calmly.
Shen Mo subconsciously retorted, "I'm not fierce."
Jiang Ning looked at him with her eyes crinkled.
Shen Mo hesitated for a moment, his face flushed, "They are all new recruits, being strict with them is for their own good, I would never... be mean to you."
He spoke too softly for Jiang Ning to hear clearly, and then she thought of how domineering Shen Mo looked during training today.
With her eyes crinkling into a smile, she said, "I know, you're not being mean to me, so I'm not afraid of you."
Shen Mo looked at her smiling face, his heart stirred with emotion.
After dinner, Jiang Ning sat on the swing. The image of Shen Mo training that she had seen earlier that day lingered in her mind: his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs in military uniform.
Turning his head to look at Shen Mo, who was busy washing dishes in the kitchen, the veins on his hands throbbed with his movements, exuding explosive sexual tension.
Halfway through washing, Shen Mo felt that the cuffs were in the way, so he took off the outer layer of clothing, revealing the vest underneath.
The movements were clean and swift, and Jiang Ning almost blew her whistle and applauded.
When she saw the bruise on Shen Mo's arm, she frowned slightly.
She walked over.
Shen Mo knew it was his wife approaching, so he focused on washing his dishes.
Until a slightly cool little hand poked his arm, the slight stinging sensation made him not even flinch.
"How did you get injured again?" Jiang Ning asked, frowning.
The concern in his tone was unmistakable.
Shen Mo glanced at his arm and said nonchalantly, "It's just a minor injury. I bumped into it during training."
If it's a bruise, it's not as serious as a strain. He usually doesn't pay much attention to strains, and he doesn't care much about bruises either.
Jiang Ning said nothing and turned to walk into the house.
Shen Mo continued washing the dishes.
He felt something slippery being smeared on his arm and looked down.
Jiang Ning's slender fingers were applying something to his arm. He sniffed it; it smelled like herbs.
It's a medicated oil.
When Jiang Ning saw him looking over, she explained, "This is the medicinal oil I made myself. It's much more effective than the medicinal oil in your clinic. The bruise will be mostly gone in a little while."
Shen Mo didn't understand pharmacology. He used to apply medicated oil, but the effect wasn't as fast as Jiang Ning had said, so he stopped applying it as much.
Whether it's useful or not, you have to praise your wife first, "Your wife is really amazing."
Jiang Ning was in a good mood. "Yeah, I'm good at it, I know."
After washing the dishes, Shen Mo went to the bathroom to take a shower. While taking off his clothes, he glanced at his arms.
The large bruise on his arm had faded considerably in the time it took him to wash a dish. This was an effect he had never experienced before when using medicated oil.
My wife is really amazing.
This time it's for real.
After sleeping in the same bed for two days, Shen Mo is now much calmer.
When he returned to his room after taking a shower, Jiang Ning was not in bed yet, but was lying on the table writing something.
Shen Mo walked over and saw her writing with a flourish, her strokes steady and her posture graceful, the names of herbs written on her pen.
There were also many names that Shen Mo had never seen before.
Jiang Ning finished writing the prescription, capped the pen, and lay down on the bed, satisfied.
*
Jiang Ning got up early the next day because she was going to have a trial period at the clinic.
The people at the clinic told her to go early yesterday.
I had breakfast with Shen Mo, and then we went out together.
When Jiang Ning arrived at the clinic, it was already open.
She found the person who had told her yesterday that she could try out the job for a day.
Upon seeing Jiang Ning, the man gave her a disdainful look. "What are you doing here if you know nothing about medicine? Are you just here to cause trouble?"
Jiang Ning: "?"
She said, "What do I know? Didn't I tell you yesterday?"
"Oh, you must have learned all that yourself." The man looked Jiang Ning up and down. "What good can you learn by yourself? The people who come to us for treatment entrust their lives to us. What if someone dies because of you? Hurry up and leave, don't get in our way."
When she heard the person say that she was self-taught, Jiang Ning's expression turned serious.
She said that only Political Commissar Chen and Yan Liyue, who were in the infirmary yesterday, had taught themselves medicine.
Commissar Chen, a grown man, shouldn't be so gossipy, and they don't have any conflicts. The only person she has a conflict with is Yan Liyue.
You've gotten addicted to going against her, haven't you?
Jiang Ning looked at the person she was talking to, "Let me try it out. If you're not satisfied, you can kick me out right away."
She has the ability to stay, as long as the other party gives her a chance.
"Hurry up and leave, hurry up! Everyone here has a proper medical education, we wouldn't dare use barefoot doctors."
Jiang Ning walked out of the clinic, intending to go home, but after taking only two steps, she remembered something and turned to walk in a certain direction.
