Chapter 126 Moving Out of the Educated Youth Dormitory
When Yun Qiao heard Jiang Ling say that she could move in, her eyes lit up instantly, and she repeated in disbelief, "Can I really move in?"
"Of course you can." Jiang Ling smiled. "You're a health worker. Living in the health room is more convenient than living in the educated youth dormitory. If a patient comes to see you at night, you can just come to the health room and knock on the door. You don't have to run to the educated youth dormitory to call for help."
"It's just that living here might not be as convenient as living in the educated youth dormitory. There's no well here. If you want water, you have to go to the well behind the team headquarters."
"It's okay, it's not a problem!"
Yun Qiao had long since stopped wanting to live in the educated youth dormitory. Several people lived in one room, sleeping on a large bunk bed. Their daily lives were under everyone's eyes, and they had no privacy at all.
Being able to live alone, the difficulty of getting water is nothing, she can overcome it!
"Hey, since you've decided to move in, I'll have a single bed delivered to you tomorrow," Jiang Ling said. "In the fall, when the weather gets colder, you can decide whether to move back to the dormitory or use a kang in the house."
"Tuo."
Jiang Ling continued, "As for medicines and other things, the Health Bureau has provided us with a batch according to the commonly used medicine list. The list is in the drawer under the counter, with prices and other things on it. Go to work tomorrow and see if there's anything missing. If so, make a list for Lu Xunzhi, and he'll go to the Health Bureau to purchase them. You'll keep track of the health room's accounts yourself. The company accountant will come by once a month to check the accounts, and you'll take care of the rest on your own."
"Yun Qiaozhi, from now on, the bathroom of our Fifth Company will be handed over to you. This is not an easy responsibility, and I hope you will handle it with caution."
Yun Qiao nodded seriously: "Jiang Yuren, I will do my best, please rest assured."

When Yun Qiao left the team headquarters, it was already completely dark, and he hurried back to the educated youth dormitory at night.
As soon as I reached the door of the educated youth dormitory, I saw Zheng Jing playing with pebbles at her feet out of boredom.
Yun Qiao quickly stepped forward and called out to her, "Jing, it's dark outside, why don't you come in?"
"I'm waiting for you."
"I can wait in the house."
"Ruru is drying herself in the room. I'm going to step out for a bit." Zheng Jing took Yun Qiao's hand and said, "Don't go back to the room. It's time for dinner now. Let's go to the cafeteria together."
"Hmm."
The two walked hand in hand towards the cafeteria. Zheng Yujing asked, "Yun Qiao, what were you doing at the team headquarters?"
"I'm going to see Jiang Yuren, and by the way, I'm going to take a look at the bathroom where I'm going to work in the future." Yun Qiao said, "Oh, and there's something else I want to tell you. I'm planning to move into the bathroom."
Yun Qiao had no intention of hiding her intention to move out from Zheng Jing and her other roommates.
She just moved out of the educated youth dormitory to live alone and had no intention of severing contact with the people in the dormitory. Instead of waiting until she moved and forcing her roommates to accept it, which would affect their friendship, it would be better to say it in advance, openly and sincerely.
Zheng Yujing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Can people live in the bathroom?"
Yun Qiao nodded. "There's a small empty room behind the bathroom that can fit a bed. Jiang Yiren said I could move in. That way, patients wouldn't have to come to the educated youth dormitory to find me at night."
"That's quite nice," Zheng Yujing said. "Living alone gives you freedom."
Yun Qiao hummed, "I thought so too, but it's not very convenient to use water. We have to go to the well behind the team headquarters to fetch water."
"As long as I can live alone, fetching water is nothing!" Zheng Yujing was extremely envious. "It's a pity I don't have your talent. Otherwise, I would also like to move out and live on my own. Living in a dormitory, I have to sneak around to take a shower."
Yun Qiao comforted her: "If you keep working, you might get a chance in the future."
"Let's not talk about this anymore." Zheng Jing's energy collapsed when she mentioned going to work. She didn't want to go to work at all.
Zheng Jing asked, "When are you planning to move there?"
"Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow," Yun Qiao said, "It depends on when Jiang Ren can get the bed over. It's warm now, so it's not too cold at night without heating the kang. With a bed, we can just clean it up and move in."
Zheng Jing nodded: "I'll help you clean the bathroom after work."
"Yes." Yun Qiao agreed: "When I move in, I will treat you to a warm house meal."
On the first day, there were no firecrackers and no programs. Company Commander Yang, Instructor Zhao, Jiang Yiren and other leaders went to inspect the bathroom, and the bathroom of the Fifth Company was officially opened.
The bathroom had just opened and was deserted at noon. No patients came to see the doctor. Only Qin Guifen and some sisters-in-law from the company came to watch the fun and chat with Yun Qiao.
Yun Qiao was not in a hurry even though there were no patients visiting. However, if the bathroom had just opened and had not been advertised yet, people would not know that the Fifth Company had a bathroom, and it would be gone in a while.
While there were no patients, Yun Qiao cleaned the bathroom thoroughly, put all kinds of medicines in order, and reorganized the Chinese medicine cabinet. He cut thick pieces of paper, wrote the names of the herbs on them, mixed some glue and stuck them on the corresponding drawers.
During the lunch break at noon, Jiang Ling had a single bed delivered to her.
The bed was made of a wooden frame nailed together. It was a bit old and covered with dust and cobwebs, but the wood was solid and did not shake.
Yun Qiao was very satisfied. He and Zheng Jing fetched some water and cleaned the bed frame before carrying it into the house.
As soon as the single bed was carried into the room, the afternoon work call rang.
Zheng Yujing had to go to work, and the two agreed to wait for her to get off work, and then they would carry Yun Qiao's wooden box from the dormitory together. Zheng Yujing left first.
After Zheng Jing left, Yun Qiao continued to make the bed.
There were no mats, so we used straw instead. The company didn't have much else, but straw was plentiful.
Yun Qiao laid clean straw neatly layer by layer on the wooden frame, and finally laid bedding on top of the thick straw.
The bedding was spread out and when I lay down on it, it was soft and comfortable, not at all painful to the bones.
While busy, Yun Qiao suddenly heard a slightly old voice coming from outside: "Is anyone there?"
"Is the doctor home?"
