Chapter 186 Difficult Childbirth
After the National Day, the fifth company also welcomed the second batch of educated youth this year.
The number of educated youth in this batch was half that of the previous batch, with a total of only seventeen, thirteen of whom were male and only four were female.
The age is also relatively young, most of them are between fifteen and eighteen years old.
They are young, immature, and have poorer adaptability than older people.
Captain Yang's way of welcoming the educated youth was the same as usual, a show of force. Although it was not cloudy or rainy this time, the temperature in the Great Northern Wilderness was low. These young men and women who came from the warm south suddenly could not adapt to the cold temperature here, and more than half of them fell ill.
Yunqiao's clinic was also packed, and the medicines prepared in advance were almost sold out.
There were also two little girls, aged fifteen or sixteen, who were sick and crying because they missed home. Yun Qiao, while doing his job well, also worked part-time as a 'psychologist', being gentle and patient, and his guidance made people feel like they were in the spring breeze.
After a few days, the educated youth were almost recovered from their illnesses, and Captain Yang arranged for people to start building their dormitories.
While the company was going to the brick and tile factory to bring back a batch of bricks and tiles, Yun Qiao took advantage of this opportunity and found Captain Yang who arranged this matter, saying that he wanted to build a kang in the house and a small kitchen next to it, which would make life more convenient.
Captain Yang was a little embarrassed, but he did not refuse directly. He just said that he would discuss it with Instructor Zhao and Jiang Yiren, and give her an answer after the discussion.
Yun Qiao nodded in agreement.
The company's leadership team has strong execution capabilities and never procrastinates, so that afternoon, Jiang Yiren came to find Yun Qiao and said that the company leaders had voted and unanimously agreed to Yun Qiao's request to build a small kitchen.
Just for the sake of the beauty of the team headquarters, the small kitchen cannot be built next to it, but can only be built behind the house. I ask Yun Qiaotong if he agrees?
Yun Qiao of course agreed.
After all, a kitchen is just for cooking, and there is no requirement for lighting or anything like that. It makes no difference whether it is built next to the house or at the back.
Besides, the well is right behind the house. It would be more convenient to open a door on the back wall than to build one next to it. You can go out and fetch water without having to go around in circles.
While the dormitory was under construction, Captain Yang arranged for several people to come and build Yun Qiao a kang and a kitchen. During this time, Yun Qiao made do with the treatment bed up front. It was only a few days anyway, so he could just bear it.
The kitchen was built first. It was not very big, only about four or five square meters in total. A stove was built in it. It was just right for Yun Qiao to use it alone, but it would be a bit crowded for two people.
After a few days, the kang was ready after being dried. The old worker who built the kang specially fumigated it with smoke and made sure there were no gaps through which smoke could escape. Then he told Yun Qiao that he could sleep there tonight.
He was very thoughtful and placed the firewood inlet for the kang indoors so that he wouldn't have to go out in the dark in the cold wind to light the fire and add firewood at night.
Yun Qiao was not a native of Northeast China, and she was still very afraid of the cold. She really liked the design of the old employee who was working on the kang.
Yun Qiao was delighted and immediately gave the old man who was making the kang an extra fifty cents as wages. And as soon as he saw him off, he rolled up his bedding and brought it back from the treatment bed in front. He only waited until bedtime to heat the kang, and when he got up, he added a piece of firewood, so he could stay warm all night.
No longer worried about cold hands and feet or a cold bed.
