Cause of death

"Doctor Ye!"

"Dr. Ye is here!"

The next day after I changed my job, as soon as I entered the locker room, the nurses who were changing clothes started shouting at each other. There was a bit of embarrassment in their expressions, but there was no malice, they were just joking.

Ye Min was not angry, and also joked: "Well! This is a good name, you guys should call me more."

She pretended to listen, but everyone was not happy. Feng Aiyun gently pushed her and said, "Stop it, you are still panting, right?"

"Of course not!" Ye Min smiled, then quickly frowned and said, "Although this name sounds nice, it's too unfamiliar. Given our relationship, I'd also like you to call me Sister Ye."

Not to mention when they disliked each other in the past, even after they reconciled because of An An, Feng Aiyun never called Ye Min sister. She immediately rolled her eyes and said, "You wish!"

Because the pharmacy is different from the department, you have to change your clothes and stay there for the whole day. Qian Xiaoyun did not walk around when she was free, and she was not like Ye Min before, who was transferred to the emergency room from time to time to help. So although she has been working in the health center for more than a year, she is not very familiar with other nurses.

In addition, she was a person who had a bad temper and had an uncle who was the deputy commander of a division. For a long time, no one dared to mess with her in the health center, and her popularity was not very good.

Until An An was born, Ye Min brought her to work for easier care.

During that time, the nurses in the institute would often go to the pharmacy to see An An when they were free, and they met Feng Aiyun more often. When they saw that although she was not very friendly when talking to Ye Min, she was not angry at all, they gradually changed their opinion of her.

When seeing her in the locker room on the way to or from get off work, people no longer don't know what to say like before, but will find topics to chat and joke with her.

Just like now, seeing Feng Aiyun rolling her eyes, other nurses in the locker room immediately joked: "Xiao Ye, look at her, she's glaring at you!"

Someone else laughed and said, "Yes, Aiyun is the youngest, so she should call us sister."

Feng Aiyun was so amused that she buttoned up her nurse uniform and ran away. The other nurses laughed again, and the people in the men's locker room heard it and asked what happened.

While joking, Ye Min also changed her clothes. Not the pink nurse's uniform as before, but a white coat. No hat on her head. She tied her hair into a high ponytail, looking energetic and capable.

The head nurse came in and saw her like this, smiled and nodded: "Well, it looks good." When Ye Min left, she patted her shoulder and said, "Do a good job!"

"Don't worry, I will."

After Ye Min finished speaking, she passed the head nurse, took a deep breath, held her head high and strode to Dr. Dong's clinic.

The clinic looked no different from the day before, except that there was a filing cabinet behind her desk and the key was on her desk.

The positions of the two beds in the clinic have also been adjusted, with one of them moved between the two desks. Although Ye Min does not know acupuncture, it is inevitable that he will encounter patients who need to lie down for consultation during the consultation process.

"How do you feel?"

While Ye Min was observing the changes in the clinic, Dr. Dong also walked in and asked with a rare warm expression.

Ye Min turned around, looked at Mr. Dong and said with a smile, "Very good. When was this cabinet put in? It wasn't there yesterday?"

"After get off work yesterday," said Mr. Dong, "If you think it's good, then do it well. If you don't do well, Director Yao will transfer your position back, and I won't speak for you."

Ye Min immediately said: "Don't worry, this day will never come!"

Mr. Dong snorted softly: "I hope so."

…

Although she changed her job to become an intern doctor and had a name at the registration window, the situation she faces now is more serious than when Mr. Dong first joined the health center.

After all, although the local military personnel did not know who Mr. Dong was, he was a big shot hired by Yao Lin. When there were no patients, Yao Lin was more anxious than him and would specially ask the staff at the window to assign patients to him.

Once a patient is assigned to Dr. Dong's clinic, even if he or she has been muttering to himself before entering the clinic, he or she will feel relieved when he or she sees the gray hair on Dr. Dong's head.

In addition, Dr. Dong had superb medical skills, so within less than a week of taking the job, he had no shortage of patients.

Ye Min is just an intern doctor with a low salary, and she also works as Dong's assistant. Even if no one comes to see her, the health center will not lose out.

Therefore, Ye Min did not receive the same treatment as Dr. Dong. After she changed her position, Yao Lin only told the person at the registration window to add her name, but did not specifically instruct them to arrange more patients for her.

Ye Min is still young, with neither gray hair nor wrinkles on her face. At 26, she looks like a girl in her early twenties.

When patients who come to see Dr. Dong learn that she has changed her job to become a doctor, their first reaction is: Can she do it?

Facing the dilemma of not being able to carry out work and the doubts of patients, it would be a lie to say that Ye Min didn't feel anything. But she knew that everything is difficult at the beginning, so she didn't get too depressed.

Anyway, Dr. Dong has a lot of patients, and he inevitably needs her to lend a hand or pass something during the consultation and treatment process. She is quite busy every day, and she doesn't feel guilty about taking the salary.

Well, she was still a little depressed.

On the first day of her job transfer, Mr. Dong joked that if Director Yao transferred her position back, he would not speak for her. She was still confident that such a day would not come. But one day, two days, and as a week was about to pass, there was not a single patient who registered for her appointment, and she began to worry.

However, Ye Min also knew that this matter could not be rushed. Instead of sighing, she might as well use this time to enrich herself so that she would not be in a hurry when the patient came to visit.

So overall, Ye Min was relatively calm.

As it turns out, some things cannot be rushed. On the last day of Ye Min’s first week of practice, she finally welcomed her first patient.

The other person was a young man in his early twenties, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, dark skin, and quite white teeth. However, his voice was a bit rough and he spoke a little hoarsely.

Upon asking, it turned out that he came to see his throat.

Ye Min registered him according to the regulations, including his name, gender, age, hometown, and battalion and company he belonged to. He answered the previous questions smoothly, but got stuck when it came to the battalion and company, and asked hesitantly: "Do I have to register this?"

"This is related to expense reimbursement, and according to regulations, it must be registered." Ye Min asked doubtfully, "Are you keeping the system confidential?"

Before she could even wait for the other party to answer, Ye Min felt that it was unlikely. Firstly, as far as she knew, there was no confidentiality unit on the ground. Secondly, even if there was a confidentiality unit, it would be affiliated with other units.

After hearing this, the other party waved his hand and said no, and after hesitating for a while, he reported the number of his battalion and company.

Ye Min didn't notice anything wrong at first, but after he finished registering, he realized that his battalion number looked familiar. He looked up at the other party and asked, "Did Meng Cheng ask you to register with my number?"

The other party lowered his head guiltily, and raised it after a while, and said with a dry smile: "Sister-in-law, my throat is really uncomfortable."

This is the default.

She said that she was an intern and there weren't many patients coming to see her today, so why would someone take the initiative to register with her? But she wasn't angry. Meng Cheng probably knew that she had no patients and someone in the camp happened to be sick, so he arranged for someone to come over.

Ultimately, it's for her own good.

But after finding out the truth, Ye Min did not feel at ease to treat the patient. Instead, she said, "I am just an intern. Other doctors don't have many patients. You still have a chance to change doctors."

But the other party did not follow her advice and choose to change doctors. Instead, he said, "Doctor Ye, I believe you. Please take a look at me."

"Have you thought it through?"

"Well, I've thought about it."

Seeing his determined expression, Ye Min said no more. She asked him to lift his chin and observed the condition of his throat. Then she asked him to open his mouth and used tools to guide him through a simple test.

During the interview, I asked him some more questions and learned that he was a squad leader and often needed to shout slogans during training. In addition, his company had held a training march shortly after the beginning of the year, which had just ended two days ago.

He started to have throat discomfort almost immediately after the training session. He had good living habits and did not smoke or drink.

Based on this information, it can be basically determined that he had acute laryngitis caused by fatigue and overuse of his vocal cords.

Ye Min prescribed Chinese medicine for him and told him when she handed it to him: "Rest more during this period, talk less, and drink more water."

"How long will it take for me to recover after taking the medicine?"

Ye Min said: "It can be as short as two or three days, or as long as five or six days, but you need to pay more attention. If laryngitis recurs, it may develop into chronic laryngitis."

"Okay, I will take my medicine well when I get back." After saying that, he stood up, bowed to Ye Min, and walked out.

After everyone left, Ye Min turned to look at Mr. Dong, who had just finished seeing a patient and was drinking tea. Noticing Ye Min's gaze, he looked over and asked, "Why? You're asking me about such a simple illness?"

Hearing what he said, Ye Min knew that she had made the right diagnosis and the prescription was correct. She picked up the teacup on the table and said, "Have you finished your water? How about I give you some more?"

Mr. Dong responded indifferently, but his actions were very honest. He closed the lid of the water cup and placed it on the desk.

When Ye Min saw this, he walked over, picked up his teacup, and went to the water room to get some hot water.

…

Although the only patient today was called by Meng Cheng, it was still an open shop after all, and Ye Min felt that she had performed well, so she had a smile on her face when she got off work.

When she met Meng Cheng at the intersection, seeing the smile on her face, Meng Cheng's expression also became a little happier. He smiled and asked, "How was work today?"

Ye Min stopped and looked at him sideways: "Aren't you asking even though you already know the answer?"

The young man who went to see the doctor went straight to Meng Cheng when he returned to the camp and told him what had been exposed by Ye Min. He was not surprised to hear it because there were no rules and this matter could not be kept secret.

He didn't look embarrassed at all at this time, and said, "Xiao Hu said that you were very professional in the process of treating patients, and he thought you were amazing."

Ye Min was delighted when she heard this: "Did he really say that?" But she was a little skeptical, "Is he praising me like that just for your sake?"

"Not really. Besides, whether you are professional or not doesn't matter to him or not. As long as his condition improves after taking the medicine, you are really capable." Meng Cheng said while walking forward, turning his head, "Everything is difficult at the beginning, but once you get started, these are nothing."

What Meng Cheng said was very obvious, and Ye Min knew it, but in the beginning she couldn't help swinging back and forth between confidence and lack of confidence, and needed someone to cheer her up from time to time.

So after hearing his words, Ye Min was full of confidence again: "You are right, as long as I do my best, one day I will have no shortage of patients!"

As they talked, the two of them entered the family compound.

Although Ye Min did not brag about it, as her name appeared at the registration window, the news that she had become an intern naturally spread.

Well, word also spread that she hadn't opened yet.

So these few days, every time Ye Min returned home from get off work, the military wives she met on the way would ask her: "Xiao Ye, did anyone come to see you today?"

"No one has asked you to register yet? How about I fill in the numbers for you and hold up the scene?"

Ye Min was very touched, but every time she said to everyone with a helpless smile, "No need, really no need."

The garrison was so small, and there were many military doctors and nurses living in the compound. The wives of the soldiers pretended to be sick to fill in for her and save face. It was impossible for the people in the health center not to know about it.

It would be embarrassing if there were no patients, but it would be shameful if the news that the military wife pretended to be sick to fill the number for her was exposed.

Fortunately, that is all in the past, and today she finally opened her business.

Although the patient was from the Mengcheng Camp, at least he was really sick, not just pretending to be sick. So when the military wives asked her the same question again, she answered with a clear conscience, "It's open. I received a patient today."

"Really? What's the other person's condition? Is he easy to treat?"

"It's a minor illness, easy to treat."

"Then when he gets better, will you have more patients?"

Ye Min is also looking forward to it, but in response to everyone's questions, she humbly said, "It's hard to say. There are many great doctors there, but it should be better than it is now."

"It's definitely better than now. Next time I feel sick, I'll go see you!"

Ye Min didn't know how to answer for a moment, so he groaned and said, "Thank you for taking care of me, but it's better not to get sick."

"Too."

After repeating this conversation, they went to the basketball court and called Meng Zheng home. He ran over from the crowd of children and the first thing he said to Ye Min was, "Mom, are you open today?"

This is how life is in a family compound. Every household has no secrets. And yet, Meng Zheng is worried about this.

Ye Min smiled and said, "It's open."

Meng Zheng looked up and asked, "Wow! Mom, are you going to be a doctor in the future?"

"Um."

“Is this a promotion?”

Ye Min said, "You even know about the promotion?"

"I know a lot." Meng Zheng cocked his chin cockily, and after a while he emphasized, "I'm four years old this year!"

Because Dongdong is a chatterbox, and he not only talks a lot but also demands others' reactions after he finishes speaking, Liang Juan is sometimes too impatient to deal with him when she is busy with housework. When she is really annoyed, she will say, "What do you know, a three-year-old kid?" or "Why do you, a three-year-old kid, worry about so many things?"

It's not just Liang Juan. Xiaomei's parents would also say this to her sometimes. After so many times, they felt that being three years old was not a good thing and they wanted her to grow up.

So ever since Meng Zhengman turned four, he has always mentioned his age, fearing that others would treat him as a child.

Ye Min snorted and laughed: "Look how much stronger you have become now that you are a year older!"

Meng Zheng laughed, shook his head proudly, and muttered something. Because the voice was soft, Ye Min didn't hear it clearly, so she asked, "What did he mutter?"

"I said," Meng Zheng stopped and cleared his throat, "Mom got promoted, but Dad didn't," he looked up at Meng Cheng with a serious face, "Dad, you have to work hard!"

Meng Cheng: “…” He could hardly tell who was the father and who was the son.

Although Meng Cheng and Ding Yang were in the same camp, Ding Yang had a bicycle and Meng Cheng had to wait for Ye Min, so when they arrived at Ding's house, Ding Yang was already in the yard helping An An learn to walk.

An An is already ten months old. She can roll over and sit up, and can stand, but she is very unstable and needs someone to support her. Because of this, it takes more energy to take care of her during the day.

Considering that Qian Xiaoyun had his own things to do during the day, Ye Min and Meng Cheng took time out after the New Year to go to Pingcheng City and bought a walker in a department store.

The walkers at that time were definitely not comparable to those of a few decades later. The body of the walkers was made of wood and was a bit heavy. Although it had wheels, it was still difficult for An An to walk with his strength.

The comfort level is also a bit worse. Although the sitting area is sewn with sponge, it is a bit too soft and does not fit the child's body well enough.

It's just that supplies were tight at that time, and it was already very good that the walker could achieve this level. Although the walker has many shortcomings, Qian Xiaoyun has indeed felt a lot more relaxed after having it.

After greeting Ding Yang, An An also spotted Ye Min and the other two, and opened her arms to shout at them, "Mom! Dad! Brother! Hug me!"

The little girl is very smart. In addition to the family names, she has also learned simple words like kiss and hug. However, her pronunciation is very unclear, and if you haven't formed an automatic translator in your body after listening to it for a long time, it is basically incomprehensible.

Although Ding Yang didn't have much contact with An An because he had to go to work, it was enough for him to understand An An's words. He pretended to be sad and said, "An An can remember your names, but she can't remember mine. It's sad."

Meng Cheng joked, "She knows how to call me auntie, but not uncle. Do you want to reflect on yourself?"

One hit kills!

Ding Yang immediately said to the little girl in front of him: "An An, hurry up and call uncle."

"Auntie!"

"It's my uncle."

"Auntie!"

Ding Yang gave up and sighed, "You can call me uncle, too."

“You you…”

Meng Cheng: "Puff——"

Qian Xiaoyun came out of the kitchen and said, "Okay, don't make things difficult for An An. Wait until she grows up a little bit and learns to call you."

"Oh, that's all we can do." Ding Yang sighed and asked, "Are you guys going to eat at home or go back?"

Qian Xiaoyun replied, "Let's eat at home. Minmin, didn't you open your business today? Let's celebrate."

The only patient today was brought in by Meng Cheng. Ye Min was not surprised that Ding Yang knew about this, and told Qian Xiaoyun, saying only, "We should treat the guests to a meal to celebrate, and I've only just started. When I've been transferred to another position for a month and haven't been kicked back, it won't be too late for us to celebrate."

"You definitely won't be kicked back," Qian Xiaoyun encouraged Ye Min, but didn't object to her words. He just asked, "Do you have vegetables at home?"

Ye Min raised his chin and said to Meng Cheng: "He bought it this morning."

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow!"

…

On the way back, the bullet screen above An An's head kept flashing, all talking about Ye Min's opening -

[Wow! Minmin finally has a patient. This is a big step forward. It’s not easy!]

[From working in the pharmacy to being Mr. Dong’s assistant, and now changing jobs to become an intern doctor, it seems like only a few months, but in fact it has been more than ten years for Minmin. Thinking of Minmin’s firm belief along the way, I am really moved! ]

【Seeing this, I really feel that this family is slowly getting better】

[Inspiration is inspiration, but getting better is...]

[Shut up in front! I don’t want to listen [手動可云表情包.gif]]

[In fact, I have always wanted to ask, how did the heroine's parents die in the original novel? In the six months since An An was born, they have gone to the hospital for two physical examinations, right? Ye Min has become a doctor, and she should be able to tell if there is a problem with the body by taking the pulse, so she wouldn't wait until it was too late to go to the hospital, right? ]

[The previous one must have not read the book carefully. The heroine's mother did not die of illness at all. It was an accident.]

[Yes, Ye Min died accidentally. The heroine and her brother in the novel talked about this! It seemed to be the early 1980s. Ye Min got off work late one day and met a drunk on the way home. The drunk wanted to do something bad, and was killed in the struggle.]

[This cause of death seems reasonable, but also seems a bit hasty]

[It was not hasty, but very reasonable. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, a large number of educated youth returned to the city, but there were few jobs, many idle people, and many vagrants. It was very chaotic! Otherwise, how could there be severe beatings! ]

[Ye Min was killed because of the chaos, and Meng Zheng was beaten severely. If it weren't for the wealthy Qian Xiaoyun's help, they would have almost been imprisoned for life. This mother and son, alas! ]

…

Although he had known for a long time that he would not live long, and had always hoped to see information about death on the bullet screen in order to change his fate, when the moment really came, Ye Min still had trouble controlling his emotions.

She used a little force to hold Meng Zheng in front of her. The latter didn't understand what was going on, so he looked up and asked innocently, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Mom, I'm fine." Ye Min sniffed, looked up and said to Meng Cheng, "It seems like there is sand in my eyes."

There was a breeze blowing by, and Ye Min rubbed her eyes. Meng Cheng was half-believing and half-doubting, so he walked up to her and asked, "Can I blow on your eyes?"

"Forget it, we're outside, let's go back first," Ye Min waved her hands, looked up and blinked, took a deep breath to hold back tears, and said, "It doesn't seem serious."

"Okay, let's go home first."

After Meng Cheng finished speaking, he took Ye Min's hand and walked hurriedly towards home.

After returning home, the two took the child straight into the master bedroom. Meng Cheng took off An An's shoes, put her on the bed, then turned around and asked Ye Min: "How is it? Is there still something in your eyes?"

Compared to the first time she saw the bullet screen and learned that An An would be switched, Ye Min has become much stronger. The journey home was enough for her to sort out her emotions. She forced a smile and shook her head: "No more."

"That……"

Meng Cheng hesitated to speak. Although he asked this, he actually didn't quite believe that Ye Min's sudden tears really had sand in her eyes.

Since An An was born, Ye Min has lost control of his emotions several times. At first he believed her explanation, but as time went by, he had to admit that she might have a secret.

And she didn't want to tell him what the secret was.

Meng Cheng hoped that Ye Min could tell her what the secret was, but she didn't know whether to tell her or not. She didn't want to force Ye Min to make a choice, so she didn't ask any more questions. She just put her arm around her shoulders and whispered, "No matter what, I will be by your side."

Ye Min followed his hand and leaned into his arms, slowly closing her eyes.

After maybe a minute or maybe just a few seconds, she suddenly said, "Starting tomorrow, you will teach me martial arts."

"Boxing?" Meng Cheng was stunned. "Why did you suddenly think of practicing martial arts?"

Because she wanted to live.

Although according to the timeline, the accident should have happened in Jiangcheng, theoretically, as long as she doesn't return to Jiangcheng in this life, the accident should be avoided.

If she could save Meng Cheng, he could at least continue to serve as a soldier for another ten years, and she could stay in the army in the early 1980s. The army had strict discipline, and there would be no idle people running wild here, and she would definitely not die like in the original book.

If Meng Cheng couldn't be saved, as long as she had her medical skills, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to stay. The result was the same as previously guessed.

Even if she returned to Jiangcheng, she could try to change jobs, find one that didn't require overtime, try not to walk at night, or try to avoid that day.

There are many ways to avoid accidents, but none of them is the best.

Whether you stay in the army or change jobs to avoid working at night, you are actually leaving the choice of your life to fate.

But even if she stayed in the army, she still had to go out. If she didn't encounter a drunkard when walking at night, she might encounter robbery or thieves. Before she had enough self-protection ability, any accident could cost her life.

But she had to survive. She couldn't let her child fall into the helpless situation like in her previous life.

Thinking of this, Ye Min said, "I want to learn. Not only me, but Zheng Zheng also wants to learn, and so does An An. She will also want to learn when she grows up."

In the original novel, An An has been living under the shadow of domestic violence since she was arranged to marry by the Xu family. Although no one will force An An to marry a domestic violence man in this life, if she wants to get married in the future, as a mother, Ye Min will also open her eyes and observe the man. But people's hearts are fickle, and some people are good men before marriage, but they will become devils after marriage.

Ye Min doesn't know if she can accurately identify the devil, so she can only give An An more love, and in the next ten years, let her know how to love herself, take herself as the master in everything, and even let her have enough military power.

She didn't know whether her efforts would make this family better or better, or whether these benefits would be just a short-lived flash in the pan, but she hoped that no matter who was missing from this family in the future, the remaining people could live well.

Live better than in the original book.
