Chapter 146 The Stepmother Is Not a Good One
"You haven't even studied medicine. You can't even tell the difference between fever-reducing medicine and cold medicine. Even if I want to help you, you can't do it." Han Shuo helplessly advised her: "Rou Rou, practicing medicine is not playing house. You can't do it without real skills and knowledge. Don't even think about it for now."
"I haven't learned it, but I can learn." Han Rou said softly, "I've observed that Ye Yunqiao is the only guard in the bathroom, and she's often too busy. If I could go over and help her share the burden, she would definitely be willing to teach me."
"You're dreaming. Do you know how many female educated youth there are in a company? If there really is such an opportunity, will it be your turn? Others have already scrambled for it." Han Shuo said.
"What should I do then?" Han Rou asked at a loss. "I really want to learn a skill, even if it doesn't have to be medicine. I don't know anything, and the company commander will only assign me to do hard labor."
"Rou Rou, it's too late. You're not a student anymore." Han Shuo said helplessly, "You're an educated youth now. You came to the countryside to work. You work from dawn to dusk. How do you find the time to learn skills?"
"But I can't do the work." Han Rou's tears fell again. "I didn't expect coming to Northeast China would be so hard."
She hadn't officially started working yet, but after watching the work of the old educated youth for a few days, she began to feel scared.
If she had known this earlier, she would not have signed up to go to the countryside just to spite her father.
Now not only did she find herself in a dilemma, but her brother also became worried about her safety and went to the countryside with her.
My brother can get a job in the Commerce Bureau.
"Brother, I regret it. We shouldn't have come to the countryside. We should have stayed at home and enjoyed the resources at home! That woman is the outsider, and she should be the one to rule." Han Rou cried heartbrokenly. She finally realized that her willful decision might ruin everything for herself and her brother.
"It's too late to regret now." Han Shuo put his arm around Han Rou's shoulders with pity, patting her gently as he did when she was a child. "Try to adapt to life in the countryside. If you have the opportunity to return to the city in the future, I will fight for you."
Han Rou bit her lip and looked at Han Shuo with pleading eyes: "Brother, is it really impossible for me to study medicine with Doctor Ye?"
"No." Han Shuo said without hesitation: "Don't even think about it. He has no relationship with you, why should he teach you?"
Han Rou lowered her eyes dejectedly and said "Oh" gloomily.

After the welcome meeting, the new educated youth began to build new dormitories.
The bathroom, which had just become quiet, became lively again.
Today someone got hit on the foot by a brick, or the other day someone got their hand stuck by a nail. There were also people who fainted from the sun, and their eyes got inflamed from being stuck in mud. Every day, there were all kinds of injuries, and the people in the bathroom were always there.
Han Rou is a frequent visitor to the bathroom.
Yun Qiao originally thought that Zheng Wenjing was already spoiled enough, but she didn't expect that Han Rou was even more spoiled than her.
Not only do you have to come here if you sprain your ankle, you have to come here if you get sunburned, and you have to come here to disinfect and apply medicine if you get a blister on your hand.
But every time she came, she was crying with tears in her eyes, so Yun Qiao didn't know whether she was real or pretending.
The man in her life was a polite little girl with a soft and gentle voice. She was also beautiful. Facing such a pleasing and pretty face, Yun Qiao really couldn't muster up any energy and could only let him do what he wanted.
Her brother Han Shuo is also a very reasonable man. He knows that his sister has caused trouble for Yun Qiao. Every time he comes to pick someone up, he helps Yun Qiao with work. Sometimes he sweeps the floor, and sometimes he helps to carry the treatment tray when Yun Qiao gives injections to other patients. He is quite perceptive.
The new dormitory for educated youth was being built, and Yun Qiao's bathroom was unusually deserted for a few days.
When the new educated youth were about to move, Captain Yang gave them a day off to give them time to prepare their household chores.
Yun Qiao did not choose to take a vacation. She waited until Sunday when He Tingjun came to see her.
In the morning, Zheng Wenjing came to the bathroom to find her. She was not only jumping around, but also humming a little tune. Her good mood was visibly evident.
"Are you in such a bad mood today?"
Zheng Wenjing chuckled twice: "These two super slobs are finally moving out. Of course I'm in a good mood!"
"Did they compensate you for your quilt?" Yun Qiao asked. "Last time you said you were going to cry to Director Jiang, but I haven't heard you mention it since."
"They didn't have any money and didn't agree to compensate me. Director Jiang also didn't agree at first, but then he saw that my quilt was really messed up and said it belonged to them both and that the money would be deducted from their wages next month."
Yun Qiao asked, "How much compensation should I give you?"
Zheng Wenjing said happily, "Thirty yuan. They basically deducted all of their first month's salary for me and Wang Ru."
Yun Qiao frowned slightly and said, "Thirty yuan is not enough to make a new quilt."
"Is thirty yuan not enough?" Zheng Wenjing was stunned for a moment. She had no idea about the prices of these items. When Director Jiang said he would compensate her with thirty yuan, she felt a little happy in her heart, thinking that she had gotten a good deal.
"Your quilt is one meter and two meters wide. The fabric is all fine cotton cloth, and it's stuffed with eight kilograms of cotton."
