Chapter 76 Living Together
Duan Ying looked at her with some surprise. Although the girl looked young, she did not look timid at all. Instead, she was very confident and graceful.
Even when he was sitting opposite her, he didn't do anything inappropriate.
Xu Zhiyi lowered his head, picked up the food from the lunch box, and chewed it slowly.
Duan Ying's attention was quickly attracted by the dishes in Xu Zhiyi's lunch box.
It’s different from the food in the cafeteria.
She asked curiously, "Where did you get this food?"
Xu Zhiyi met Duan Ying's gaze and replied with a smile, "This is a dish my sister made for me."
Duan Ying suddenly realized that it was not the food from the cafeteria.
As the aroma of food continued to waft out of the lunch box, Duan Ying, who was sitting opposite her, suddenly felt that the food in her hand no longer smelled good.
She couldn't help but ask, "What are these dishes?"
Xu Zhiyi couldn't remember the name either and could only rely on memory.
"What's this called braised chicken with rice?"
"Braised chicken with rice?" Duan Ying read along, thinking the name of the dish was very interesting.
Xu Zhiyi pushed the lunch box containing braised chicken in front of Duan Ying.
"Would you like to try a piece?" Xu Zhiyi asked.
Under normal circumstances, Duan Ying would never do this, but when she smelled the unique aroma, she couldn't help but pick up a piece of chicken.
The fragrant and tempting chicken took a bite. The chicken was tender and firm. The chicken was stewed very flavorfully and had a slight spicy taste. Even after finishing a piece of chicken, Duan Ying felt that the taste was endless.
This is much better than the food in the hospital cafeteria.
Because of this braised chicken, Duan Ying and Xu Zhiyi had a topic to talk about.
Duan Ying thought that Jiang Jishan always had lunch in the army canteen. The dishes in the canteen were all monotonous and repetitive. Jiang Jishan had no regular pattern for eating. He would eat if he saw a delicious dish, and would skip lunch if he saw a dish he didn't like.
Duan Ying is a doctor, so she naturally knows that only a regular diet can keep a healthy body. Moreover, at Jiang Jishan's age now, he should take good care of his health.
"Is your sister good at cooking delicious meals?"
Xu Zhiyi nodded and said, "My sister cooks the best food in the family."
Duan Ying instantly became interested and asked quietly, "Is your sister usually busy?"
Xu Zhiyi looked confused.
Duan Ying explained, "My husband has had irregular eating habits for years and is very picky about food. I was thinking if your sister has time, could she help make lunch every day? I'll pay for the ingredients and the labor."
Xu Zhiyi was a little embarrassed: "I can't decide this. I have to go back and ask my sister's wishes first."
"Of course you should. You can ask her. It doesn't matter if she doesn't agree." Duan Ying expressed her understanding.
After all, her proposal was a bit unreasonable.
Xu Zhiyi nodded and took the opportunity to ask about Duan Ying.
"This is my second day at the hospital. My elderly family member can't quite remember me anymore. I'd like to ask which department in our hospital I should see in this situation? Who's the director?"
After hearing this, Duan Ying's eyes lit up with a knowing smile, "Did you come here specifically to stop me? Tell me, how did you know about me?"
Sure enough, her actions could not be hidden from smart people, and Xu Zhiyi did not want to hide it anymore.
Then he said bluntly: "Dean, I didn't mean to inquire about your whereabouts. It was just based on speculation and good luck."
Duan Ying raised her eyebrows and looked at her, quietly waiting for her next words.
"When you came in just now, no one dared to sit with you. I guessed that you were either a new nurse like me, or the most respected person in the hospital."
"Your temperament is not like the young nurse who just came in, so it can only be..." Xu Zhiyi stopped there.
"Which department are you in now?"
"Obstetrics and gynecology."
Xu Zhiyi answered whatever Duan Ying asked, without asking any more questions.
"intern?"
Xu Zhiyi shook his head: "It's just an apprenticeship. I haven't even graduated from high school yet, so I don't have a certificate."
"As an intern without a license, I won't get paid and won't stay long in the hospital. I need a medical assistant. Could you take on the role?"
Xu Zhiyi was a little surprised. She had just wanted to get close to the dean and get an appointment, but she didn't expect this to happen.
Seeing Xu Zhiyi's stunned look, Duan Ying smiled and said, "Don't worry, being my medical assistant isn't a complicated job. While I'm seeing patients, you can help me record patient records and plan my daily surgical schedule. The monthly salary is 15 yuan."
Of course Xu Zhiyi was willing. He would definitely learn a lot by following the dean.
She nodded and said, "I am willing. Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Dean. I will definitely do my best."
"Okay, pack up and report to my office later. By the way, I'm a very strict person. If you make a mistake, I won't let you stay here."
Xu Zhiyi certainly knew that there could be no mistakes in any work, let alone in a hospital, where the requirements would only be more stringent.
"Also, if you give your old man a number, he can come see me."
"Thank you, Dean!"
Xu Zhiyi told Wen Sining the good news as soon as she got home. Wen Sining didn't expect that her grandmother was so capable and could immediately get an appointment with the best doctor in the hospital.
"There's one more thing. I'm just asking you on behalf of someone else. It's okay if you disagree."
Wen Sining asked her what was going on, and Xu Zhiyi told Wen Sining everything that happened today.
After listening to this, Wen Sining looked delighted and fully agreed to take on this job.
"Sister-in-law, you don't know this. The workplace is like a battlefield. You have to make achievements to get a good military position. In the workplace, leadership is that achievement. It is the leader you want to conquer."
"As long as you build a good relationship with the leader, he will think of you first when there is something good in the future, not to mention asking him to do something. If we help the leader more often, then when we ask him to do something, he will think of us first, and then the matter will be easily handled, right?"
Xu Zhiyi suddenly understood after hearing this. She asked Wen Sining curiously, "Xuanxian, who did you learn all these interpersonal skills from?"
Wen Si Ning choked, then quickly said, "I read it all in books."
"In a book?" Xu Zhiyi was curious. "Next time, let me read this book so I can learn more."
Wen Si Ning was completely overwhelmed. Where could she get such a book? Unless she wrote it herself.
After receiving the good news, Wen Sining ran to the guesthouse and told Lu Jinkun the good news.
Lu Jinkun, who had been running around with Old Lady Lu for a whole day, finally showed some emotion in his eyes after hearing the good news from Wen Sining.
"Are you serious?"
Wen Sining nodded: "My sister-in-law has already made an appointment for grandma. If it's not convenient for you, I will take grandma to see her tomorrow?"
Lu Jinkun shook his head and refused decisively: "I will bring it myself."
Wen Sining shrugged. It would be better if he could take her there himself. As long as Grandma Lu could receive treatment, anything would be fine.
The next day, Lu Jinkun took the registration form and brought Old Mrs. Lu to the door of the clinic.
Xu Zhiyi arrived at the hospital early. When she saw Lu Jinkun and Old Mrs. Lu, she took the initiative to step forward and say hello.
"The dean is on his way. Please sit for a while."
Lu Jinkun nodded and said, "Thank you."
"If you want to thank someone, thank Xuanxuan. Xuanxuan has always been thinking about your grandmother."
Thinking of Wen Sining, Lu Jinkun pursed his lips tightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, when the door of the clinic was pushed open, Xu Zhiyi saw the person coming and hurriedly introduced her to her.
"Dean, this is the old man in my family whom I mentioned to you."
Duan Ying's gaze fell on the two figures sitting with their backs to her.
She stared at the figure for a long time without blinking, until Lu Jinkun turned around.
When their eyes met, Lu Jinkun's mind was filled with Wen Sining's words: For the sake of grandma's illness, what does his dignity mean?
He rarely got up to take his grandmother away, but turned his head away with an expressionless face.
The moment Mrs. Lu saw Duan Ying, the expression on her face was enough to be replaced by joy.
"Xiaoying! Mother finally sees you again!"
Xu Zhiyi, who was standing by, widened his eyes and stared at them in disbelief.
Duan Ying walked forward, reached out and hugged Old Mrs. Lu, and two lines of tears rolled down like pearls from a broken string.
"Mom, it's Xiaoying's fault that I haven't been able to go back to visit you all these years."
Old Lady Lu patted Duan Ying on the back and comforted her gently, "As long as you and Xu Chuan live well here, even if I die, I will die with my eyes closed."
When talking about Lu Xuchuan, Duan Ying couldn't stop crying again.
Lu Xuchuan is also a very good man. If he were still alive, she would really stay with him for the rest of her life.
It's a pity that fate played a trick on them. In the end, they were separated by Yin and Yang and had no destiny.
Lu Jinkun's hands, which were hanging on his knees, suddenly clenched into fists, and he tried hard to suppress his unhappiness.
Xu Zhi felt that this was not the right time and place, so he quickly walked out, leaving the space for the three of them.
Duan Ying wiped the tears from her face, held Mrs. Lu tightly with both hands, and said to her: "Mom, you should live in Beijing from now on and don't leave. Let me take care of you."
Old Lady Lu waved her hand. "I came to Jing City just to see you and Xuchuan. After seeing you two, I'll go back."
"Mom, Xuchuan has been on a mission lately. You all should come and stay at my house. I'll stay with you and wait for Xuchuan to come home."
When Mrs. Lu heard her son was going on a mission, she frowned slightly. "Why did you go on a mission so suddenly? Without even telling me."
"It's a military secret. We, as military dependents, can't ask about it. We can only wait for him to come back home."
Fortunately, Duan Ying's words did not arouse Mrs. Lu's suspicion.
Of course, Mrs. Lu was willing to live with Duan Ying, and she agreed.
Duan Ying was very happy and her eyes fell on Lu Jinkun's face again.
"A-Kun, why don't you and grandma come live here? It will be more convenient to take care of grandma this way."
During this period of time, Mrs. Lu became more and more dependent on Lu Jinkun.
"A Kun, Xiaoying is my daughter-in-law. You should treat her as your own home and stay here without worry!"
After a long silence, Lu Jinkun nodded softly.
When Duan Ying heard that he agreed, a happy smile appeared on her face.
