The staff couldn't stand it anymore and kicked Su Mingyue out of the office.
When she came out, Su Mingyue's face looked as ugly as shit.
Bai Yuxiao quickly stepped forward: "Mingyue, how did the exam go?"
"I... Yu Xiao, they went too far! I was telling the truth, how could they do this!"
Su Mingyue told Bai Yuxiao the whole story and felt very wronged.
The teachers at their school all regarded this as a wise saying and kept passing it on to the students.
Su Mingyue had heard this so many times that her ears were practically calloused, but she still remembered this sentence.
So grand and dignified, it's impossible to find a single fault with it.
Why is it completely useless when switched to the 1970s?
It must be these damned old fogies! They have absolutely no sense of right and wrong!
Bai Yuxiao felt like the sky had fallen after hearing this.
"Oh no..."
"Mingyue, how dare you speak to the people of the commune like that?"
"You're ruining your future! You're completely disregarding the work of a barefoot doctor!"
Su Mingyue pouted: "Yu Xiao, why are you yelling at me? It's clearly their fault, what did I say wrong?"
"You call yourself a scholar? You should have a broader and more far-sighted perspective!"
"I think they're deliberately making things difficult for her. Otherwise, I don't believe Ye Nian'an would have passed so easily."
Bai Yuxiao didn't know what to say for a moment.
To be fair, Su Mingyue is right.
All illnesses should be treated as early as possible, nipped in the bud.
However, Su Mingyue had not considered the situation here at all.
Her idea would be widely popular in a more economically developed city.
But in this rural area where people are neither starving nor hungry, saying such things would seem out of touch with reality.
"well!"
Bai Yuxiao has already foreseen Su Mingyue's fate.
If I were one of the evaluators, I wouldn't choose Su Mingyue either.
"Yu Xiao, where are Ye Nian'an and Comrade Chu Yan?"
Su Mingyue then realized that the two people were gone.
"They've already left. Okay, let's go back. Maybe we can still make it to work this afternoon."
"Yu Xiao! We rarely come to the city, can't you stay and play with me a little longer before going back?"
Su Mingyue was furious.
She was already in a bad mood because she encountered an old-fashioned reviewer.
In the 1970s, there were no cell phones, air conditioners, refrigerators, or internet. Staying in the countryside all the time, I was almost bored to death.
Having finally managed to get to town with Bai Yuxiao, how could they not have a good time before thinking about going back to work?
Bai Yuxiao hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement: "...Okay, but we have to get back before dinner."
Su Mingyue said coquettishly, "I knew Yu Xiao was the best~"
That side.
Ye Nian'an knew that her entry into the training program was a done deal, so she told the old man pulling the cart that she planned to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to see if they had any bicycles.
The old man pulling the donkey cart, puffing on his cigarette, said heartily, "Alright, then I'll wait here for you and watch others play chess."
"Thank you, sir!"
Ye Nian'an and Chu Yan arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative and asked the salesperson if they had any bicycles.
"I'm sorry, we don't have any bicycles here right now. If you want one, you'll have to order it in advance, and it will take about two weeks to get it."
"If it's a Phoenix or Forever brand bicycle, you'll have to wait more than two months."
"It takes this long? How much does a bicycle cost after a two-week wait? What brand is it?"
"It's a Peacock brand bicycle."
"I've never even heard of this brand before."
Ye Nian'an felt a little ashamed.
Thinking that the economic level of the town was still far behind that of the city, bicycles, radios, watches, and sewing machines were always in short supply, but in the past, the city always had them readily available, even Phoenix and Forever brands, and you didn't have to wait half a month.
Here, even for slightly inferior bicycle brands, you have to wait half a month, and for better brands, you have to wait two months. It's too slow.
"Brother Yan, what do you mean?"
"I'll do whatever you say, Nian Nian."
Chu Yan naturally revolved around Ye Nian'an's ideas in everything.
"Then let's wait."
Ye Nian'an prefers to buy things that are good from the start. Rather than buying this obscure bicycle, she would rather buy a Phoenix brand bicycle.
She remembers seeing someone else buy a Phoenix brand bicycle in her previous life. It was still in good condition after 20 years of riding. Except for the occasional draft or chain breakage that required repair, it didn't require much work.
A bicycle brand that can become a household name in China must have excellent quality.
If you buy a lower-end brand like this, and it starts having problems here and there after only a few years, the repairs will cost a lot of money, and you'll lose a lot of money.
"Hello, salesperson, we would like to order a Phoenix brand bicycle."
Upon hearing this, the sales clerk hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.
Ye Nian'an frowned subtly: "What's wrong? Is there a problem again?"
"No, not really... Sir/Madam, if you'd like to buy a Phoenix brand bicycle, I can recommend my relatives to you. They urgently need money because their daughter-in-law is sick and hospitalized."
"They're urgently selling their bicycles. No tickets are needed, and the price is negotiable. The key is that they want full payment upfront. Are you interested?"
Ye Nian'an thought for a moment and said, "Can we check the quality of that bicycle first?"
"sure."
The sales clerk told the others that she had to go out temporarily, and then left with Ye Nian'an and Chu Yan.
Her relative's house was only 300 meters away. When she arrived at the door, the salesperson knocked, and soon a middle-aged woman who looked slightly haggard came out.
After the two talked for a while, the middle-aged woman brought out a Phoenix brand bicycle.
Ye Nian'an's eyes lit up.
The condition is indeed quite good, at least 98% new, and all the accessories look pretty good.
This clearly shows how much the other party cherishes this bicycle, cleaning it every day.
After all, in this day and age, bicycles, like cars, are considered a major household item and are used frequently.
"This bike is a Phoenix 28 with a full chain box. I bought it for 180 yuan after getting the receipt. I rode it for a year. As you can see, we take great care of it. We clean it every day, and it looks brand new."
"Now we don't need tickets, it's still the original price of 180 yuan, but they don't allow credit, you have to pay in full at once. Sigh, if my daughter-in-law hadn't gotten sick and we urgently needed money, we wouldn't be selling this..."
"Okay, that's all for now."
When someone is in trouble, Ye Nian'an can't really bargain.
Not to mention the price is quite affordable; you can buy a nearly brand-new Phoenix brand bicycle for 180 yuan, and you don't even need a ticket—it's a real lifesaver.
After Chu Yan carefully inspected the bicycle and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with it, Ye Nian'an gave him 180 yuan.
"Niannian, we've already bought the bicycle, where else would you like to go for a stroll?"
"Hmm... It's still a while before we go back. Brother Yan, can you give me a ride around town? It's my first time here."
"good."
