Chapter 24 Buying Gifts
Today is the weekend. When she got home from work, Zheng Juan had already prepared dinner, set out the bowls and chopsticks, and invited Nanjiang Cheng and Jingyi to eat.
Nan Jingyi went downstairs for a walk after dinner. She hadn't seen Xiaopi all day, so she planned to take him around the community.
The lanterns are on and night falls. Outside the window, there is a crescent moon like a hook and the chirping of summer insects.
There are many people walking in the community.
Xiaopi turned into a little pug today, twisting his fat body and running in front of her to have fun.
Every time it comes to the human world, it has endless curiosity, looking here, sniffing there, and being like a dog.
In the evening after the beginning of autumn, the breeze is gentle and the cool autumn wind is very comfortable.
This afternoon she went to the bank to check, and 180,000 yuan was credited to her bank card one after another. This was a year's rent paid by five shops. Looking at this sum of money, Nan Jingyi felt happy.
This is the money she earned based on the memories of her previous life.
Five golden shops, as time goes by, their value will rise.
At this rate, it will be enough to recover the principal of five shops next year, followed by pure profits.
The Spring Festival is coming soon, what gifts should I buy for myself and my mother? She hasn't gone shopping during this period. She plans to take her mother to go shopping and relax tomorrow.
In the last life, my mother was frugal and could not bear to eat or wear anything.
In this life, my mother can buy whatever she wants without having to worry about whether her living expenses are sufficient.
On the morning of the weekend, after Nan Jingyi delivered the goods to Jiangnan Banquet and Jufenglou, she immediately rushed to the vegetable market to help her mother sell vegetables, finishing her work early.
Zheng Juan's daily income is basically stable at 3,000 yuan. Nan Jingyi is afraid of Zheng Juan's hard work, so she doesn't prepare too many vegetables for her. After she finished selling, she would stop working and go home to do housework. The house was kept clean, and her husband Nanjiang Cheng no longer lost his temper.
Zheng Juan saved every sum of money and was reluctant to spend it.
She plans to give it all to her daughter Jingyi when she has saved up to 300,000 yuan.
She would not have been able to earn this money without her capable daughter.
The daughter will always have to find a partner and get married in the future, and money must be left for her as a dowry.
But how could Nan Jingyi want it? She is already a rich young woman now.
The mother and daughter first went to the Namdaemun Central Market.
Nan Jingyi took a look at her five shops. All five shops were being renovated. Judging from the progress, they planned to open after the Spring Festival.
She bought two new clothes and a new pair of leather cotton shoes for her mother, and she also bought four or five sets of new clothes for herself.
There is no online shopping in this era, so Nan Jingyi misses Taobao, Tmall, and Pinduoduo.
When they came to the barber shop on Jianshe Road, Nan Jingyi took her mother to get her hair permed. There were so many people in the barber shop, all rushing to improve their image before the Spring Festival.
This was the unique sense of ritual that people of that era had towards the Spring Festival.
Curly hair is fashionable in this era. It is the kind of perm with more than a dozen long heating wires attached to the head. It looks very scary.
Of course, the final effect is still good, the craftsmanship of a master craftsman. Mom looked at herself in the mirror and was very satisfied.
The mother and daughter came to the department store. Nan Jingyi dragged her mother to the gold jewelry counter. Zheng Juan said she didn't want anything, but Nan Jingyi insisted on buying whatever she said. The mother and daughter were in a stalemate.
In the end, it was Nan Jingyi who convinced Zheng Juan.
"Mom, the money you earn is for enjoyment. Are you reluctant to spend it and keep it to get moldy?"
Zheng Juan felt that what her daughter said made sense and no longer refused.
Nan Jingyi bought a 30-gram gold bracelet for Zheng Juan and an 11-gram gold bracelet for herself.
Gold was really cheap in 1991. The price of gold is 98 yuan per gram. The price is relatively fixed and does not fluctuate as much as the price of gold after 2000.
Zheng Juan’s gold bracelet costs 2,940 yuan, and Nan Jingyi’s own gold bracelet costs 1,078 yuan.
The monthly salary of an ordinary person in this era is about 400 yuan.
Young girls look old-fashioned if they wear gold that is too heavy. In the 1990s, it was fashionable for girls to wear gold bracelets.
Moreover, she has been interested in this bracelet for a long time. It is the style she liked in her previous life.
Zheng Juan looked at her daughter spending money. Although she was reluctant to part with it, she was still very happy. She touched the gold bracelet with her hand and a satisfied smile on her face.
The mother and daughter went home happily.
The next morning, during the morning meeting of the department when the shift was handed over, the head nurse announced in front of all the nurses the official notice from the nursing department that she had just received: Nan Jingyi was transferred to the operating room and would be on duty tomorrow.
Everyone congratulated Nan Jingyi.
In fact, last week, when Nan Jingyi won the first place in the aseptic technology operation competition, they had already guessed that this transfer opportunity must be Nan Jingyi.
In the corner, Zeng Lili squinted jealously, mentally cursing her boyfriend Gu Qiang for breaking his promise.
In fact, how could Gu Qiang have any relatives of the dean? If he had, Nan Jingyi would have known about it long ago.
Jiang Qi was also happy for Nan Jingyi, "Congratulations! Congratulations on upgrading the operating room. Come down and visit us friends when you have time. Don't forget our friends in the internal medicine department!"
Nan Jingyi said, "Jiang Qi, I'm just changing positions. We are still good comrades! My classmate from the Public Security Bureau is helping. He said that starting this weekend, it's time for us to practice driving. "
" Okay, I'll be there when you call me. I was impatient to take second place in the practice subjects.
In the afternoon, Nan Jingyi was sorting out all her belongings in the dressing room.
Zeng Lili looked on with a strange look on her side, bulging with anger like a big toad.
In fact, when Zeng Lili first came to the hospital last year, she went to the operating room to help for a month.
It is a pity that Zeng Lili did not seize this good opportunity. She made frequent mistakes in the operating room and was not even qualified as a surgical nurse.
The head nurse of the operating room asked her to leave early after a week. How could she be called upon again? It’s simply a fool’s errand!
In fact, in hospitals, for those who are familiar with hospital work, these are normal job transfers.
However, compared with other departments, the staff in the operating room is relatively fixed.
Because it takes several months or even longer to train a surgical nurse, it is easy not to change jobs.
Nan Jingyi's classmate Chen Fang worked in the operating room as soon as she graduated and worked there until she retired.
Nurses in inpatient and outpatient departments often have the opportunity to do rotations, on average once every one to two years.
Nurses basically have a fixed position after the age of thirty-five.
At work the next day, the head nurse personally sent Nan Jingyi to the operating room.
Nan Jingyi expressed her gratitude to the head nurse, and then she took her belongings and followed the head nurse of the operating room into the mysterious operating room, where she would start her five-year career as an operating nurse.
The operating room is on the sixth floor.
Nan Jingyi was a little excited. This was the place where she had worked the longest in her previous life.
The familiar operating room, the microscope, the familiar surgical sink... now look brand new.
The head nurse still looks like the young woman she once was, with a stern appearance but a warm heart.
Touching the scene, she recalled every detail of those years in the operating room in her previous life.
Live a new life, cherish it, don't miss it again.
