She lifted the door curtain and walked into the room. Gao Qian breathed a sigh of relief the moment she saw her.
She took the initiative to greet Yun Qiao, "Nurse Qin, you're here."
Yun Qiao said "hmm". It was the first time Gao Qian called her like that and she was a little uncomfortable.
"Nurse Qin, I came here earlier than you, so I got to know Doctor Jiang Hua in advance. Let me introduce you to the new doctor in our clinic. Her surname is Jiang, Doctor Jiang Hua." Gao Qian said, turning her back to Jiang Hua and winking at Yun Qiao.
"Doctor... Jiang?" Yun Qiao asked hesitantly.
The name Jiang Hua was not unfamiliar to her. In 1970, she went to the 58th Farm Headquarters to take the barefoot doctor qualification exam in the same examination room as Jiang Hua from the 9th Regiment. After the exam, the health center took them to the farm hospital for internship. She got together with Jiang Hua again and worked together for a period of time.
After the internship ended, the two agreed to keep in touch, but because the third and ninth regiments were too far apart, they gradually lost contact.
It had just been three days since the beginning of the year 70, and Yun Qiao still had a clear memory of what happened three days ago.
In her impression, Jiang Hua was a lively and lively little girl with a round apple face and chubby little body that still had baby fat. Her eyes and eyebrows were full of spirit, and she had the innocence and cuteness of someone who was protected by her family and was ignorant of the world.
But the young woman in front of him was very thin. She didn't have a round apple face. Her cheeks only had prominent cheekbones that were highlighted because she was too thin. She had a pointed chin and her narrow eyes were full of vigilance and scrutiny when she looked at people.
Yun Qiao could see a little bit of her former appearance in her drastically changed facial features, but only a little bit.
She is now completely different from what she was three days ago.
Yun Qiao was surprised: "It's you."
"It's me." Jiang Hua also recognized Yun Qiao. "Before I came here, I heard that there were two nurses in the clinic, one of whom was named Qin Yun Qiao. I thought I had run into someone with the same name but a different surname, but I didn't expect it to be you. This is incredible! When did you change your surname?"
Yun Qiao smiled and explained, "It's been a while since I changed my last name. It's a long story, so I won't go into it now."
"Is that so? Then I'm quite curious. I'll have to ask you something later." Jiang Hua smiled. "I didn't know you were married into a family compound and working in the infirmary of a military uniform factory. If I had known, I should have come here earlier."
Yun Qiao's smile froze slightly, and Gao Qian also lowered her eyes.
Why come early?
Grab people's jobs as soon as possible?
Even if we know each other, you can't do such a thing, right?
Gao Qian's initial impression of the new doctor hit rock bottom, and Yun Qiao also had a complicated feeling that the person he met was completely different from who he was.
She sighed inwardly and forced a smile.
Jiang Hua asked her, "I heard you're pregnant? Is it your first child?"
Yun Qiao shook his head: "No, I'm pregnant with my second child now."
"Then you got married quite early," Jiang Hua said. "Let's get together sometime so our families can get to know each other, so we don't get lost when we meet each other outside."
Yun Qiao didn't refuse, and nodded with a smile: "Okay."
While they were greeting each other, someone from the personnel department of the factory office upstairs came down and asked Jiang Hua to come upstairs.
Jiang Hua smiled at Yun Qiao and Gao Qian and said, "Then you guys go ahead and do your work. I'll go upstairs."
"Okay, go ahead."
After Jiang Huaqian arrived, Gao Qian curiously approached Yun Qiao and asked her, "Yun Qiao, do you know her?"
Yun Qiao nodded. "Yeah, we interned together at the hospital for a few days before, so we're not very familiar with each other."
"I also don't think you and her would be familiar with each other. You two seem to be completely different people."
At this point, Gao Qian walked to the door, lifted the curtain and looked around, then stepped back and said to Yun Qiao in a low voice, "Do you know who she married?"
Seeing Gao Qian's serious expression, Yun Qiao couldn't help but become serious as well: "Who?"
"Xie Zhen! The deputy division commander of our military region!" Gao Qian's eyes sparkled.
Yun Qiao's eyes widened in shock. She almost uttered, "Deputy Commander Xie? Are you sure?"
"It's absolutely true, absolutely true!" Gao Qian said with a serious expression: "I'm Xiao Bao's inquiry, have you ever heard me say empty words?"
"But, isn't Deputy Commander Xie almost...almost fifty years old?!" Yun Qiao said in disbelief.
"Why am I so unconvinced?"
"It's true, and you can't help but believe it," Gao Qian said. "I heard she got married around that time, but it was kept a secret. Apart from her superiors, few people outside knew about it. It was only because she was going to work at the clinic that the news came out from the Military Family Resettlement Office."
Gao Qian said, "The resettlement office always assigns jobs to people on a one-to-one basis. What if there's no position? You either change jobs or wait for the family of the previous one to vacate it. There are almost no exceptions. Think about it, if she didn't have the support of a deputy division commander, a powerful figure, how could she have squeezed you out and parachuted you into our clinic as a doctor? How is that even possible?"
"But isn't Deputy Commander Xie a little too old?" Yun Qiao was dumbfounded and refused to accept it. "What does she want by marrying Deputy Commander Xie?"
like?
How is that possible?
It’s not like she hasn’t met Deputy Commander Xie before.
He was a tall, well-built man, and of course, a rather rough one. He had been leading troops in battle for twenty or thirty years, exposed to the ravages of gunfire, wind and rain, and his face was already marked by the marks of time.
She looks older than her father Qin Lin.
Although his father was a soldier in the past, he now works in an office and is not exposed to the wind and rain, so his aging is naturally not that obvious. Even though Qin Lin has taken good care of himself, they are obviously two generations apart when they stand together.
It would be even more obvious if Deputy Commander Xie and Jiang Hua... stood together.
To be honest, it’s unpleasant.
What does she want?
Do you think he looks old? He has a lot of hair on his head and doesn't brush his teeth or take a shower?
I can’t figure it out. I really can’t figure it out.
