"Really, you don't need to."
Song Lan shook her head, then said, "Please thank your aunt for me and tell her not to be so polite."
Wei Shengli smiled but didn't reply. He asked, "Your medical skills are very impressive. Are you sure you were just a nurse before?"
Song Lan: "I learned traditional Chinese medicine from my maternal grandfather when I was a child. As for my career as a nurse, it's because I attended a vocational nursing school and was assigned to work at the general factory's staff hospital after graduation."
"So you've been transferred to this branch factory..."
Wei Shengli didn't reveal what happened next.
Song Lan: "I will follow the leader's instructions."
Upon hearing this, Wei Shengli paused for a moment, then said, "I suppose the staff hospital here at the machinery factory needs an excellent nurse like you, so the leaders of the staff hospital at the main factory transferred you here..."
Having said that, Wei Shengli realized his mistake, but the words he had spoken were like water spilled on the ground, impossible to take back. For a moment, he was extremely embarrassed.
If it were really as he said, how could the leaders of their factory's staff hospital... have agreed to the security department's temporary transfer and allowed such an excellent nurse as Comrade Song to work in the security department?
Thinking this, Wei Shengli couldn't help but feel annoyed, and at the same time, he couldn't help but think even more: Could it be... could there be something fishy about Comrade Song's temporary transfer to the security department?
"What's wrong?"
Song Lan looked at Wei Shengli with some confusion.
Coming to his senses, Wei Shengli shook his head. He composed himself and said, "If the leaders at the staff hospital knew you had such excellent medical skills, they would definitely snatch you back from the security department immediately!"
"It doesn't matter where you work."
Song Lan said calmly, "I feel pretty good working in the security department. To be honest, I don't care whether I can go back to my nursing job."
"But you were originally a nurse, and a graduate of a medical college, and you also have excellent traditional Chinese medicine skills. If you stay and work in the security department for a long time, wouldn't that be a waste of your talent?"
With a slight frown, Wei Shengli said seriously, "Good steel should be used where it's needed most. Anyway, I don't think you can stay in the security department forever."
Upon hearing this, Song Lan laughed: "I'm like a brick, I'll be moved wherever I'm needed. Well, where we work isn't up to us, it depends on how the leaders arrange it."
Wei Shengli pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time.
Song Lan could easily guess what he was thinking. He was suspicious of her being temporarily transferred to the security department, but what could she do about it?
It was arranged by the leadership; she couldn't do whatever she wanted.
Furthermore, being a nurse is not the same as being a doctor. Given her current situation, she would undoubtedly need to obtain certification to become a real doctor from a nurse.
Of course, Song Lan had thought about this verification matter and was planning to go to the county health bureau to inquire about it another day.
Once she passes the exam, she can become a doctor and relieve the suffering of more patients.
With a sigh, Wei Shengli said, "...Let's go, let's continue the inspection." The subordinates have to follow the leader's orders; disobeying orders means certain death!
Comrade Song must have known this, so as she said, she didn't feel anything about working in the security department.
In that case, he should just end the conversation there, otherwise he would seem too tactless.
"good."
Song Lan nodded with a smile.
As the sun began to set and it was time to leave work, those in the security department who weren't on duty packed up their belongings and left the office.
As one of only two female comrades, Song Lan changed out of her uniform and walked home in her own clothes.
"Sister-in-law, you're back!"
Song Lan knew that Wu Dong had taken the two children home, because Qin Yanzheng had asked Wu Dong to pick them up from school at noon and in the afternoon, which would lighten Song Lan's burden a bit.
Wu Dong had no objection to this.
"Yes, my sister-in-law is back."
With a smile in her eyes, Song Lan patted the child's head as she passed by, then pinched the little girl's nose and said, "You two play, I'll go put the bag in the room."
"...I'll help my sister-in-law."
The little girl suddenly reached out her hand.
Seeing this, Song Lan did not refuse.
"Thank you, Xiao Liu!"
She handed the bag to the little girl, walked to the tap, washed her hands, and went to the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, go make dinner."
"I helped my sister-in-law start the fire."
"Need not."
"Yes, that way my sister-in-law can do other things!"
Tuanzi Xiaowu followed behind Song Lan with his short legs, and said with a grin, "Sister-in-law, my sister and I got two more little red flowers today!"
"After you've eaten, your sister-in-law will help you stick it on the wall."
"Okay! Thank you, sister-in-law!"
"You're too kind!"
"It's not just being polite, you should thank your sister-in-law!"
"You have such a sweet tongue!"
Song Lan's clear voice was full of laughter.
Dinner was nothing fancy, just a regular home-cooked meal, but everyone in the family, young and old, ate with great relish.
"Second sister, if you and Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu have anything to say to Dad, write it in the letter tonight, and your second brother and I will set off first thing tomorrow morning."
Arriving at Shisong Village early would give us time to go to the forest farm and make it back in the afternoon.
Qin Yaxin nodded and said "Mmm".
The two little ones nodded their heads in unison.
"I'll wash the pots and pans and the dishes. You go back to your room and write a letter to Dad."
Qin Boyan quickly cleared away the dishes, and seeing that he wasn't lying, Qin Yaxin felt a little embarrassed. She whispered, "Thank you, Second Brother."
"What? What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly."
Looking up at Qin Yaxin, Qin Boyan's eyes widened.
Has the sun risen in the west?
He rarely heard his second sister say thank you to him!
"You did this on purpose!"
Pretending not to hear, Qin Yaxin blushed. She widened her eyes, but her voice remained low.
"What do you mean, intentional?"
Qin Boyan pretended not to understand.
The two little ones covered their mouths and laughed.
They knew that their second brother was just teasing their second sister!
Qin Yaxin wasn't stupid; she knew perfectly well what was going on. She bit her lip, then stomped her foot and said, "Thank you, Second Brother, for helping me wash the pots and dishes. Now, do you understand?"
"Sister-in-law, did you hear that? Second sister is so polite!"
As he spoke, Qin Boyan carried the cleaned-up dishes to the kitchen, laughing and whistling as he went.
Qin Yaxin saw Song Lan, the two little ones, and Wu Dong all smiling at her. Even her blind older brother was smiling at her. She felt her face heat up. She stomped her foot again and said, "You're all laughing at me. I'm not talking to you anymore!" She turned and ran to her room.
Clearly, this isn't anger, it's discomfort, feeling embarrassed and ashamed of being stared at!
"Let's go, I'll write the letter to Dad for you."
After Qin Yaxin left, Song Lan stood up and said something to Qin Yanzheng.
"good."
Qin Yanzheng responded and was pushed back into the room by Song Lan.
"Brother Wu, could you come to my room and help me?"
Tuanzi Xiaowu grabbed Wu Dong's hand: "I want to write a letter to my dad, but there are many words I don't know how to write. Can you teach me, Brother Wu?"
"sure."
Wu Dong patted the little guy's head, then turned his gaze to the little girl: "Little Six, do you need Brother Wu's help?"
"……want."
