She changed the subject at the right time and asked, "Just like in our courtyard, there lives a special military doctor named Bai, right?"
"Oh, the one you're talking about must be Mr. Bai. He's quite old, but he looks so energetic. He's worthy of being a military doctor."
"Of course, he's a top-grade military doctor, so how could he be any worse? But I heard recently that his granddaughter is also very talented and is now a celebrity in the medical department."
Lu Qing'er listened, her face a little stiff, and she asked stiffly: "Really?"
"Of course not. If I remember correctly, she hasn't been living here long. She signed up as an intern military doctor right after arriving. She leaves early and comes back late every day, either doing internship or training. Just a few days ago, I heard that she performed well, passed the assessment, and was promoted to a full-time position. She's now a junior military doctor."
"Yes, yes." Another military wife said with emotion, "After all, her grandfather is a top-grade military doctor, and she's very hardworking and willing to endure hardships. She's also an intern military doctor, but she signed up for training a few days later than the others, and yet she's making rapid progress. It's only been a short time since she joined the army, and she's already passed the physical fitness test and been promoted to a full-time officer. It's not easy."
Lu Qing'er couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness in her heart, but she pretended to be calm and said casually, "That's probably because she has a grandfather who is a special military doctor."
A military wife named Wang was quite insightful. Upon hearing this, she laughed and said, "That's true, but the iron must be strong itself. If she doesn't have the ability, she won't pass the training assessment. No one can stop her from saying anything."
Lu Qing'er could only laugh dryly twice and agreed, "Yes... really, that's quite impressive, hehe."
"Who said it wasn't?" Mrs. Fang put down the vegetables she was picking and grabbed another handful from under her feet to continue picking. As she picked, she continued, "So, for someone to be able to go from an intern military doctor to a full-time junior military doctor, he's quite capable."
Lu Qing'er did not respond to this. She just laughed dryly and tried her best to restrain the jealousy and anger in her heart.
What abilities could Bai Yalan possess? She must have relied on that special-grade military doctor, Grandpa, to pass the assessment so quickly and become a junior military doctor.
It's like leaning against a big tree for shade. Maybe she was able to pass the test because her grandfather asked someone to speak up for her.
Lu Qing'er was full of resentment and secretly hated herself for not being so lucky and having a family with a strong backer.
Otherwise, she also studied traditional Chinese medicine, maybe she could become a military doctor.
Look at that Gu Fujun. When he quarrels with me, does he always say, "Forget it, forget it. Women are just long on hair but short on knowledge. I'm a grown man, so I won't argue with a woman like you who has no knowledge."
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the more jealous he became. Just as his hatred was boiling over, he heard the more knowledgeable sister-in-law, Wang, say, "But I heard that it's easy to become a trainee military doctor, but moving up is the hardest, and there are also quotas."
Mrs. Fang immediately responded, "That's right, that's right. My husband also said that. It was like this."
Lu Qing'er's anger immediately turned into joy, and she rarely interrupted, "Oh, so if that's the case, it won't be easy to move up in the future."
Mrs. Fang said, "That's for sure. It's going to be tough to move up one level at a time."
"Yeah, take Elder Bai for example. He's a top-grade military doctor, sure, and he's quite capable himself. But he's already sixty years old, and he's been a mother-in-law for so many years."
"That's true. Well, when you think about it, being a military doctor isn't an easy job. As outsiders, I think we can't just watch them eat meat; they get beaten up sometimes, too."
This was a bit vulgar, but it was said by Mrs. Sun, the most gossipy and carefree person who was always concerned about what was going on in Lu Qing'er and her husband's room.
Lu Qing'er nodded in agreement, a rare gesture. She smiled and said, "That's right, after hearing what you said, I actually think that getting a regular position is easy, but it won't be easy to move up the ranks."
She deliberately emphasized the last few words and said with a smile, "If I can't move up in rank, wouldn't it be quite embarrassing to just stay where I am?"
