Hearing what Grandpa Chen said, Song Lan lowered her eyes and remained silent for a moment. Then, she turned her gaze back to Grandpa Chen: "If possible, see if the organization can transfer me to another job in two years."
The reason Song Lan chose to transfer jobs two years later was partly because she remembered Qin Yanzheng saying that he would need to stay at the Red Star Machinery Factory for at least three or four years.
Song Lan didn't want Qin Yanzheng to be left without anyone to take care of him, so the best time for her to change jobs was the year after next.
That is, 1977.
Furthermore, Song Lan considered the two sisters, Qin Yaqing and Qin Yaxin. One of them was currently working in a machinery factory, and the other was a high school freshman in the town middle school near the machinery factory.
If she were to stay in Beijing for a long-term job, the daily lives, work, and studies of Qin Yaqing and her sister would be affected to some extent.
For example, if something happens to Qin Yaqing at the factory, her sister-in-law is not around, and her older brother Qin Yanzheng is too busy with work and often doesn't come home.
In such a situation, no matter how urgent her situation, it's too late to help her.
Similarly, Qin Yaxin was studying in the town center, and the start of the new semester was the second semester of her first year of high school. If she suddenly transferred schools, she would inevitably have to readjust to the classmates and teachers around her.
This is undoubtedly a bit troublesome.
In other words, it would have been better for Qin Yaxin to finish high school at the town's middle school.
As the eldest sister-in-law, if she were far away in Beijing, what would happen if the town's middle school called to say that her sister-in-law, Qin Yaxin, had encountered some trouble?
Needless to say, just like when she suddenly learned that her sister-in-law Qin Yaqing had an accident, it was still too late to solve her immediate problem.
Based on all these considerations, Song Lan felt that "the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother" was not just a casual saying; she had to put it into practice and take on the responsibilities that belonged to her as the eldest sister-in-law.
It's not that Song Lan likes to meddle; it's just that the Qin family's situation is obvious.
Both Qin's father and Qin Yanzheng can be described as "workaholics".
Qin Boyan is in the army again. Although Qin Yaqing has learned her lesson in love, she still retains a little bit of her "naive and innocent" side.
As for Qin Yaxin and the two children, the former is impulsive. If no one at home is watching over her and giving her a few words of advice every now and then, she might cause a big mess.
The latter two... are still young and need family members to accompany them daily.
If Song Lan stays in Beijing, they can naturally stay as well, since these two are currently just kindergarten children and it doesn't make much difference where they go to school.
With her thoughts racing, Song Lan finished speaking, her lips slightly pursed, waiting for Old Master Chen to say something.
"Okay, Grandpa understands. He will talk to the comrade in charge of your job transfer and try his best to arrange the job transfer for you according to the time you mentioned."
Mr. Chen thought that since he was stepping in, he would naturally make sure his beloved granddaughter got what she wanted.
Besides, it was such a small matter, and it was very easy for him to accomplish.

After the third day of the Lunar New Year, Song Lan resumed work.
"Your surgical wound is healing exceptionally well, and you haven't experienced any adverse symptoms. You'll be able to be discharged in two days."
Upon arriving at the inpatient department, Song Lan completed the examination for Grandpa Jiang, then smiled and announced the results, along with Grandpa Jiang's discharge date.
Upon hearing this, Grandpa Jiang was naturally overjoyed.
"Dr. Song, my father has recovered and no longer has to endure brain pain from time to time. My whole family and I are so grateful to you!"
Jiang Qin was at the hospital with Song Lan today, and she sincerely thanked her.
"Comrade Jiang, you're too kind."
Song Lan smiled and lowered her eyes to make notes on Grandpa Jiang's recovery.
"Lanlan".
Seeing Song Lan tuck the pen into the pocket of his white coat, Grandpa Jiang suddenly asked, "I heard from your Grandpa Su that you will be kept on to continue working at the hospital. Is that true?"
“My grandfather mentioned it to me yesterday, but I haven’t heard about Grandpa Su yet. However, I hope to go back to my original hospital and work for another two years.”
Song Lan responded with a smile.
"Have you encountered any difficulties? Why don't you talk to Grandpa Jiang? Maybe he can help you."
In Mr. Jiang's opinion, staying in Beijing to work at the General Hospital of the Military Region was the best thing that could have happened.
It was an excellent idea from any perspective, but he never expected that Song Lan would want to return to the original hospital.
Or rather, Song Lan didn't feel that being able to stay and work at the Beijing Military Region General Hospital was something to be happy about.
Shaking her head slightly, Song Lan smiled and said, "I didn't encounter any difficulties. I just considered that my husband works in the machinery factory. If I stayed here to work, not to mention anything else, I would definitely not be able to take care of him in terms of daily life."
"It's no big deal. As long as you're willing to stay, your grandfather and I can transfer both of your jobs to Beijing with just one phone call."
Grandpa Jiang spoke with certainty.
"Thank you so much for your kindness! But my husband's job is unlikely to be transferred for the next two or three years, so Grandpa Jiang, you don't need to worry about it."
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, my husband's job will be transferred out of the machine factory in two years, and my job will be transferred along with him.
It didn't matter to Song Lan where she worked.
Since both her job involves treating and saving lives, she doesn't care about the location of her work.
"I see..."
After thinking for a moment, Grandpa Jiang said, "Alright, Grandpa Jiang will listen to you and won't worry about it for now."
With Song Lan's medical skills, he could easily get into any hospital in the country.
In other words, Song Lan already has a great reputation in the domestic medical community. Whenever she expresses her desire to go to a certain hospital, the head of that hospital will definitely welcome her with open arms and even drive to the door to pick her up.
After leaving Grandpa Jiang's ward, Song Lan was called to Dean Su's office.
"Does he/she really have to go back to his/her original workplace and work for another two years?"
Clearly, Dean Su already knew that Song Lan did not intend to continue working at the Military Region General Hospital, or rather, after speaking with Song Lan, Old Master Chen had spoken with relevant colleagues.
This means that Song Lan wanted to return to her original unit to work for another two years, so the organization informed Dean Su by phone, which led to the scene where Dean Su was talking to Song Lan.
Song Lan looked apologetic, nodded and gave a soft "hmm," and said, "If I have the chance, I would be very willing to serve under you, Grandpa Su. But for now, I still want to go back to my original hospital to continue working."
"It's only two years, are you sure you won't change your mind?"
Dean Su confirmed.
Song Lan smiled and nodded again, saying, "No."
"Alright, I'll remember that. In two years, you'll be waiting for your job transfer. Don't stand me up then."
Dean Su was truly reluctant to see Song Lan, a genius in the medical field, buried in the small staff hospital of the Red Star Machinery Factory.
"Lanlan, our General Hospital of Military Medicine has very complete facilities in all aspects. I heard that you can also make medicines and develop new drugs."
"If you stay here, Grandpa Su will immediately arrange the best laboratory for you and provide you with a good assistant."
Dean Su couldn't hold back any longer and stubbornly made one last attempt to persuade Song Lan.
