After lunch break, we go back to work in the afternoon.
Ning Xiyue, carrying a water bottle and a small bag, walked slowly towards the clinic.
When they arrived, Li Xiuxiu was already in the clinic wiping the table with a towel. Seeing Ning Xiyue coming, she trotted to the door and shouted happily.
"Xiyue, you're here."
"Well, you came so early and have already cleaned up. Wow, you've cleaned up so much. You're so proactive."
Ning Xiyue wiped the table casually and found it clean without any dust. Other places could also be seen to have been wiped. There were visible water stains on the table.
I'm afraid she came to clean up after dinner. The girl is really active at work. Unlike her, she would try to come as late as possible and arrive on time for work, never a minute early.
Li Xiuxiu smiled delicately: "I also have nothing to do, so I thought I'd come over early to clean up."
Ning Xiyue took a rag, wrung it out in the water, and started cleaning: "Xiu Xiu, is there any place left to clean?"
"I've cleaned up the outside room. The only thing left is the inside room. I've already swept the cobwebs on the roof and the floor, but I haven't mopped it yet."
Li Xiuxiu squatted down and washed the handkerchief on her hand. She stood up and pointed to the lounge on the lower left.
"Okay, I'll wipe it."
Ning Xiyue walked in with a handkerchief, and Li Xiuxiu also walked in with a basin.
Two people cleaned together and wiped every corner of the house clean in about ten minutes.
Ning Xiyue and Li Xiuxiu took a dustpan and took out the slightly damp herbs from the medicine cabinet to dry in the sun.
While drying herbs in the yard, the clinic welcomed the first visitor of the year.
"Excuse me, is Dr. Ning here?"
Ning Xiyue paused while plucking the herbs. The moment she looked up, a pair of shiny leather shoes came into her sight. In this dusty and muddy countryside, the edges of the shoes were still spotless, as clean as a pair of new shoes.
You can get a glimpse of the owner's personality by looking at the shoes.
This is a person who loves cleanliness, works seriously and pays attention to details.
Ning Xiyue's first reaction was that the person was not from the team. He might be related to the coal mining team and was probably a cadre.
Looking up, she saw the person at the door.
At the door of the clinic stood a woman in her thirties wearing Dacron and with her hair combed meticulously. She leaned forward slightly and looked at Ning Xiyue.
She had a decent smile on her face, and her gentle appearance made her smile more approachable and sincere. There was a hint of determination unconsciously between her brows, like a white plum blossom blooming in the cold winter, with a proud demeanor that made people feel noble inexplicably.
There seemed to be two pens in the right pocket.
She dresses modestly but has an outstanding temperament.
It is obvious that he is someone who has been trained in the army or comes from a military family, an intellectual with culture and substance.
Ning Xiyue wondered when such a cadre with unique leadership qualities came to their team and why she had never seen him before.
Did he come today?
Although she was thinking a lot in her mind, Ning Xiyue's body had already taken action when her eyes looked over. She stood up and placed the dustpan on the shelf on the right. She responded neither servilely nor arrogantly, "Hello, I'm Ning Xiyue. What can I do for you?"
He looked at Li Xiuxiu, who was standing in the room in a daze, and motioned her to bring out a bench.
Li Xiuxiu, as if waking from a dream, ran out of the clinic with a long bench and placed it in front of her: "Comrade, please sit down."
"Thanks."
The female comrade nodded politely, adjusted the back of her clothes, sat down gracefully, looked at Ning Xiyue again with a faint smile on her face, and introduced herself.
"Hello, Dr. Ning. My name is Bai Yu. You can call me Sister Bai or Sister Yu. I'm currently a geological exploration engineer for the coal mining team here. I'm here to talk to you today. Could you spare me ten minutes? Excuse me."
They are indeed intellectuals and geological exploration engineers, who are all remarkable figures and are truly role models for their female comrades.
Ning Xiyue had a good impression of her profession and a smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
"Of course, Sister Bai, let's go inside and talk. This way, please."
Ning Xiyue stood up and invited her into the clinic to talk.
Looking at the identity of this comrade, she was certain that it was most likely about the coal mining team, and it would be inconvenient to discuss it while sitting outside.
The two went into the clinic's consultation room to discuss things.
Li Xiuxiu walked to the yard to dry the herbs without disturbing their conversation.
In the room, Ning Xiyue took out a clean cup, poured a glass of water and placed it in front of her.
After sitting down, she spoke first: "Sister Bai, if you have anything to ask me, please tell me. No one will disturb us here."
She really wanted to know why the leader of the coal mine team wanted to see her today.
