Both female educated youths were easy to get along with.
Ye Nian'an taught them skills, and they reciprocated by giving her many nice things.
Ye Nian'an naturally accepted it all; it was what she deserved.
Two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Ye Nian'an basically graduated and passed the exam.
Now we're just waiting for the paperwork to be completed so we can officially start working.
They were also the fastest barefoot doctors to be trained and put to work in the town's history.
Normally, it takes about six months of training.
Ye Nian'an could have started working from the beginning, but she went through a two-month training process just in case.
It was only with the strong recommendation of my mentor that I took the assessment ahead of time and passed it perfectly.
Having left the dormitory, Ye Nian'an now has a few days of free time and can finally go to the town's black market.
The money and banknotes she kept in her storage space, as well as the private jewelry she had dug up from Li Dahong, were all itching to be used.
That day, Ye Nian'an got up very early and left the dormitory dressed lightly.
When they arrived at a deserted alley, Ye Nian'an took out a black cloak that she had prepared in advance from her spatial storage and wrapped herself up tightly, leaving only her eyes and Li Dahong's bag of jewelry exposed.
Arriving at the entrance to the black market that I had scouted out last time, I paid an entrance fee of one dollar and went inside.
Previously, there was no entrance fee to the black market in Haicheng because several black market bosses were fighting amongst themselves for territory, and no one was in charge of the black market itself.
Ye Nian'an felt that this was not a good idea. It seemed like they were saving some money, but in reality, if government officials came to investigate, it would be too easy for them to be arrested in one fell swoop.
At the same time, without the protection of a black market boss or the ability to smooth things over, and without any warning signs, being arrested and imprisoned would leave a stain on one's record, affecting one's entire life.
I'd rather spend a little money and save myself the trouble.
After Ye Nian'an found a good spot, she took out a piece of cloth and spread it on the ground, then took out all of Li Dahong's jewelry and laid it out on it.
These days, jewelry is a luxury item.
Ordinary people come to the black market either to buy the four essential items for their son's wedding, or because they are short of ration coupons and need to spend extra money to buy grain.
Jewelry is hard to sell, but Ye Nian'an isn't worried. She just puts it out and sells it slowly, and she'll eventually sell it.
Several days passed like this, and Li Dahong had sold almost all of his jewelry. Ye Nian'an packed up his stall and began to browse the black market.
If I come across cheap, high-quality meat, rice, or similar items, I buy them all.
I've learned a lot along the way.
What surprised Ye Nian'an even more was that she finally met a black market dealer who was willing to sell poultry.
These days, poultry is all for personal use; people are reluctant to sell it, especially hens and ducks! They lay eggs! They produce a continuous supply!
The males are about the same price, but the females can sell for a lot more.
There were also some chicks and ducklings waiting to be fed, and the prices weren't outrageous, so Ye Nian'an bought them all without bothering to haggle.
Looking at the old man's weathered face as he set up his stall, Ye Nian'an knew that unless something terrible had happened at home, he would never have brought out these things he relied on for survival to sell.
After Ye Nian'an finished shopping, he came to the space and watched the poultry roaming freely, growing, and drinking the spiritual spring water. He couldn't be happier.
Ye Nian'an did not intend to kill them, but to continue raising them and letting them lay eggs, so that chicken and duck eggs could be supplied continuously.
Especially with such good air quality in the space, the presence of spiritual spring water, and the beautiful environment, along with the influence of time flow, I hope it can lay more eggs.
On this day, Ye Nian'an finally received the certificate he had been dreaming of, issued by the county-level health administration department.
"Congratulations, Comrade Ye Nian'an, on becoming a barefoot doctor in our Liangtian Township Hongxing Brigade! From now on, we'll be relying on you for everyone's health!"
Shi Minghui was the happiest one.
He had asked Ye Nian'an to take up his post as soon as possible to ease the financial burden on the brigade, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly!
In just two months, I passed the assessment and obtained my job certificate!
That's incredibly fast!
The Chu family also followed Shi Minghui to town to welcome Ye Nian'an.
Having endured these two months, although Ye Nian'an would return to the educated youth settlement to visit them whenever he had a holiday, he could only stay for a short time.
I'll be heading back to town after about a day, and it'll probably be another two weeks before we meet again.
These periods of separation made Chu Zhenyuan and the others realize that Ye Nian'an had long been an inseparable part of their Chu family.
During her absence, the house was filled with far less laughter and joy.
"Sister-in-law~"
Chu Xin'er threw herself into Ye Nian'an's arms, her eyes brimming with tears, and said, "I've finally made it back! These past few days have been so tough. Look at me, I've lost so much weight!"
"Xin'er, you've really worked hard."
Ye Nian'an stroked Chu Xin'er's head in her arms. At this moment, she felt like a real older sister to her.
She is no longer the woman who needed Chu Xin'er to step forward and protect her.
"Niannian, thank you for your hard work."
Chu Zhenyuan and Chi Xinyao also surrounded Ye Nian'an.
Unexpectedly, Chu Yan did not rush forward. Instead, he stood at the door, looking around.
"Brother Yan, what's wrong?"
Ye Nian'an curiously approached Chu Yan's side.
In the past, when they met, Chu Yan was always the first to come forward. The newlyweds, deeply in love, always had endless sweet nothings to say, as if they wanted to say them for a lifetime.
This time, Chu Yan acted quite unusually. Not only did he not come forward, but he stood at the entrance of the commune, looking around as if he was waiting for someone.
Something unusual must be going on.
"Niannian, I'm waiting for someone to come over."
As Chu Yan spoke these words, his eyes never left the direction of the alley entrance.
"Who are you waiting for? Why are you being so mysterious?"
Ye Nian'an followed Chu Yan's gaze and kept looking outside.
At that moment, Ye Nian'an seemed to see a familiar figure.
Almost thinking he was seeing things, he blinked in disbelief.
"Nian Nian!"
Ye Hui and Ye Sheng walked at the front. When they saw Ye Nian'an, they excitedly called out to her and quickened their pace to run over.
"Second brother! Third brother!"
Ye Nian'an couldn't control her excitement either and ran forward, asking, "Why are you all here?"
Because of limited rest time and the need to rush back to town, she hadn't seen the Ye family for over two months.
"It's not just us, but also Mom and Dad, my older brother, they've all come!"
As soon as Ye Sheng finished speaking, Ye Xiang and the others' voices rang out: "Niannian!"
"Dad, Mom, Big Brother!"
Ye Nian'an looked at her family members, who were now all standing in front of her; it was nothing short of a miracle.
As she laughed, her eyes began to redden.
Ye Hui lowered his voice and explained, "It was my brother-in-law who went to the back mountain and left a mark, telling us that you were going to get your certificate and return to the brigade today."
"We thought today was such an important day for you, so we all asked the brigade for leave and came to town to witness it."
