After writing her reply to Zheng Wenjing, Yun Qiao carefully sealed it with wax. However, before she could send the reply, on the following Monday, she received a call from Zheng Wenjing.
The call was made by Zheng Wenjing from the public phone in the commune post office, directly to the public phone in the family compound.
The public telephone in the family compound is installed at the radio station at the entrance of the compound. When there is a call, the person to be contacted will be called through the radio. This includes when family members come to visit, and people will be called directly through the radio to answer the call. The loudspeaker directly covers 60% of the area of the compound. Even if Yun Qiao is in the military uniform factory, he can hear the sound of the radio, and it is very efficient to use it to call people.
It was the first time Yun Qiao was called on the radio, and she was still a little confused. Gao Qian immediately pulled her up from her seat, "Doctor Qin, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and answer the phone. Don't keep me waiting anxiously."
Cao Yu even lent her his bicycle: "The road is too slow, you can ride my bicycle. Do you know how to ride a bicycle?"
"I can ride." Yun Qiao thanked him repeatedly, got on Cao Yu's bicycle and rushed to the radio station.
Arriving at the radio station, Yun Qiao answered a call from Zheng Wenjing, who asked her on the other end of the line, "Yun Qiao, I asked Wang Mingguang to give you a letter yesterday. Did you receive it?"
Yun Qiao hummed and said, "I received it yesterday. I wrote a reply, but before I could ask Comrade Wang to send it back to you, you called me."
"I was too anxious." Zheng Wenjing smiled sheepishly and said, "This opportunity is really great. I thought about it over and over again yesterday and couldn't sleep all night. I finally decided to agree to participate in the filming of that movie."
"That's great." Yun Qiao smiled and said, "Didn't you ask for my opinion in your letter? That's what I wrote in my reply. This is indeed a great opportunity. If you miss it, you'll definitely regret it for years."
Zheng Wenjing also laughed: "I think so too. If I participate, I will regret it for a while at most. If I don't participate, I may think about it for the rest of my life and regret missing such a good opportunity."
She finally came to terms with it and said, "It doesn't matter if I don't have any money. At least it's produced by a legitimate studio. If I can see my face in the cinema in the future, losing a hundred or two hundred in salary is worth it."
"Then you have to act well. When the movie comes out, I'm going to brag about it to everyone and let everyone know that my good friend played so-and-so in the movie!" Yun Qiao teased her, "So if your acting is too bad, I won't be able to tell anyone about it."
Zheng Wenjing was amused and said, "Yun Qiao, don't worry. I will definitely act well and make you proud. I won't let you lose face."
"Well, that's what you said. If you don't act well, I won't acknowledge you as my friend." Yun Qiao joked with her a few times and encouraged Zheng Wenjing a few times, saying to her, "Just focus on filming. You won't get paid for the next six months. If you need money, just tell me and I'll lend it to you. When you're out and about, money is your courage. Without it, you have no confidence. So don't be polite with me. I don't want you to suffer in my sight."
Zheng Wenjing felt warm in her heart and said with emotion: "Don't worry, I will definitely not be polite to you. Anyway, I know your phone number. If I run out of money, I will call you to borrow it and pay you back slowly in the future."
This was actually the reason why she made the call today.
She participated in a movie, and although the company did not block her, she was clearly told that her salary would not be paid. The crew only gave her ten yuan a month as meal allowance, which was not even enough for food, and she had to pay more out of her own pocket.
It would take half a year to shoot a movie, and her savings wouldn't be enough to sustain it.
The person answering the phone does not have to pay, the call fee is paid by the caller. Although a local call costs only five cents a minute, Zheng Wenjing is short of money now, and five cents is still money, which can buy two or two taels of rice. So he did not waste time talking to Yun Qiao, and hung up the phone right after he finished speaking.
After hanging up the phone, Yun Qiao put the receiver back in its place, smiled at the announcer at the radio station, thanked him, and rode his bicycle back to the military uniform factory clinic.
She parked her bike in the carport, went into the house and said to Cao Yu, "Dr. Cao, thank you for lending me your bike. I'll leave it in its original spot for you."
Cao Yu nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, you're welcome."
Gao Qian approached Yun Qiao curiously and asked, "Who called you? Is it something urgent?"
Her hometown is far away and long-distance calls are very expensive. No one calls her all year round, so Gao Qian is very curious.
Yun Qiao smiled and evaded the question, "No, just some housework."
She obviously didn't want to say more, and Gao Qian was tactful enough not to ask any more questions. She turned around and talked to Cao Yu.
"Doctor Cao, today is your last day at work, right? When are you and your husband going back to your hometown?"
"Yes, today is my last day at work, and I will be gone the day after tomorrow." Cao Yu replied, and then started chatting with Gao Qian.
After being together for several years, Gao Qian still couldn't bear to let her go. As she talked about her former lover, her eyes became red.
After a while, An Xiaomei also joined in and discussed inviting Cao Yu to a farewell dinner, implicitly excluding Yun Qiao in her words.
Yun Qiao didn't mind, and didn't force herself to get close. She just quietly did her own thing. After all, she was just the newcomer. The three of them had been together for several years, so their relationship was naturally closer. If someone was leaving, it was only right to have a farewell dinner together to say goodbye.
㹏If there is no need to move forward.
Even if An Xiaomei wanted to isolate her, what would be the use?
Anyway, Cao Yuyi was the only doctor in the military uniform factory's clinic. Doctors were naturally one level higher than nurses, so Gao Qian and An Xiaomei, as nurses, had to listen to her.
An Xiaomei can't stand her?
Hold it in.
