Not long after, Director Han of the commune heard that the city's secretary-general had arrived, so he came to see. Wei Tianqing and Director Han praised Qiao Zhiyi's medical skills and were very positive about traditional Chinese medicine.
"I see that this doctor has such a thorough understanding of Chinese medicine and is very proficient in her techniques. Now that everything is in ruins, Chinese medicine really needs capable people to carry it forward. She is very suitable! Your commune should think carefully about how to make use of this advantage." said son-in-law Li Bingnian.
These words also touched Director Han's heart.
When Qiao Zhiyi got off work at noon and went home, Pei Zheng came to pick her up on time. Qiao Zhiyi told him about her possible position as deputy director.
Pei Zheng never expected that his wife would be promoted so quickly.
There's nothing we can do about it, since the person who's receiving treatment recently has a son-in-law who's the secretary general of the municipal government.
The two went home together and found that Qiao's mother and sister-in-law Qiao had come with Kiki, and were chatting with Pei's mother in the main room!
"Mom, sister-in-law..." Qiao Zhiyi greeted.
Qiqi jumped into Qiao Zhiyi's arms and Qiao Zhiyi hugged her.
Qiqi gave her the gift she brought, "This one was made by Dad, and the bag is from Grandpa..."
After mentioning it last time, Father Qiao and Brother Qiao actually took the time to make the gift they promised to give to Qiao Zhiyi.
There are beautiful bamboo wind chimes, decorated with butterflies and dragonflies, and bells hanging underneath. Qiao Zhiyi likes them very much.
The bamboo bag is also very beautiful. Her father said that the bag was polished without any burrs, and even decorated with woven straw flowers.
Mrs. Qiao said, "You didn't see it. The father and son were busy doing these things after work, and they even competed to see who could do it better."
Mother Qiao wanted to laugh when she thought of this, "Both father and son are already grown up, but they still act like children."
Tangtang also showed off her wind chimes and bag, "I have them too."
Father Qiao and Brother Qiao also made one for Tangtang.
Qiao Zhiyi asked Pei Zheng to hang the wind chime for her, and then tried on her dad's bag. "I'll take this bag to work this afternoon."
Mother Pei smiled and said, "Come and have dinner! My in-laws brought a lot of wild rice stems and bamboo shoots. They're so fresh! Come and try some."
Every time Qiao's mother and sister-in-law come back, they bring something. This time they brought seasonal water bamboo shoots, which are fresh and tender, as well as bamboo shoots dug from the mountains.
The water chestnuts are all planted and managed by the brigade. Now it is the harvest season, and each family will get some according to their work points.
Wild bamboo shoots are not abundant, and you have to go to the mountains to dig them up, and even then you only get enough for your family to eat.
So these are hard to buy on weekdays, especially for those who live in the commune, it is difficult to even have a bite.
While everyone was enjoying the meal, Pei Zheng couldn't wait to share the good news, "Zhizhi might soon become the deputy director of the health center..."
The women were overjoyed.
Pei's mother asked, "Is this true?"
Qiao's mother said, "Yes, are you sure?"
Qiao Zhiyi said, "The documents haven't been issued yet, so please keep it confidential for me. If there are any changes by then, we can just pretend nothing happened."
Pei Zheng felt that there would be no accidents and this position would definitely belong to his wife.
Because in his heart, there is no doctor as good as his wife in the entire commune, and Director Han values Qiao Zhiyi very much. In addition, Qiao Zhiyi is now treating cadres in the city, and the cadres have extensive connections. With these multiple supports, it would be a waste of talent for him to be a small deputy director.
Qiao's mother and sister-in-law still have great confidence in Qiao Zhiyi.
This is definitely something interesting.
Mother Pei now wishes to announce it to the world, especially to let Aunt Bao have a good look.
But since her daughter-in-law said to wait until it is confirmed, she will endure it for now.
After everyone had dinner together, Qiao's mother took Qiao Zhiyi aside and said, "The reason we're here this time is mainly because of Qiqi's registration for the Red Education Class tomorrow..."
The brigade had no red education class and no primary school, so the children had to come to the commune to go to school.
Originally, if the child was older, he could go directly to elementary school, but seeing that Tangtang was going to the Yuhong class, Qiqi also wanted to go, and Mrs. Qiao also felt that there was nothing wrong with Qiqi going to the Yuhong class.
This way, Kiki won't be idle every day and can learn things earlier in school.
She just wanted her eldest daughter to be able to go to college, get a good job, and find a good husband in the future.
This is the good future that Mrs. Qiao has planned for her daughter.
Qiao Zhiyi certainly supported Qiqi going to school. Pei's mother said, "I just told your mother and sister-in-law that it's inconvenient to pick Qiqi up and drop her off. She can stay with us on weekdays and go home on weekends..."
The main reason is to give Tangtang a companion so that he won’t bother her all day long.
Mrs. Qiao was very lucky. It was rare to meet such a reasonable in-law as Pei's mother. It would be best if Qiqi could live here on weekdays. "Qiqi's father and I will come to pick her up when we are free. If not, we will have to trouble you. We will give you some living expenses for the child..."
"What living expenses are you talking about? Qiqi is a well-behaved child and doesn't eat much, so you don't need to give her..." Mother Pei said politely.
Qiao Zhiyi also said: "Yes, sister-in-law, no need to give it."
She can earn a lot now, and it is no problem for her to support her niece's living expenses, and it will not cause unnecessary pressure on Pei Zheng.
After making money, she wanted her family to live a better life. She also wanted Qiqi to study hard, leave the countryside, and have a bright future like Tangtang.
Although the Pei family wouldn't mind these things, Mrs. Qiao didn't want to take advantage of them, so she asked the child's father to bring some dry firewood, or chicken and duck eggs every time he came...
In addition to talking about Qiqi's schooling, Qiao's mother wanted Qiao Zhiyi to check Qiao's sister-in-law's pulse.
