HCB Chapter 284 Returning to Anshi
Chapter 284 Returning to Anshi
That doesn't sound right.
Ye Nuan rolled her eyes at him, annoyed: "We're talking about serious matters!"
Gu Hanchuan smiled and kissed her on the cheek: "What I'm doing is important!"
Ye Nuan's face flushed red instantly, and she subconsciously pushed him away: "What are you doing! What if my sister sees this later?"
Ye Nuan didn't pay much attention to Wu Xingbang anymore, mainly because she was getting busier and busier.
In June, she took the school's graduation exam, achieved excellent results, and successfully obtained her university diploma.
With this, she might have the opportunity to pursue a master's degree again when national policies are relaxed in the future.
Ye Nuan contacted her hometown and found that she would have the opportunity to go to a hospital in Anshi for an exchange program in mid-July. She would bring Yueyue and Xiaoliu with her.
Ye Nuan also called Gu Hong and told her that she needed to go back to Anshi and might stay there for about half a month. She asked Gu Hong to help her find a suitable place to stay temporarily.
Staying in a guesthouse is inconvenient, since Xiao Liu is still a child. It would be best if they could have a place to cook for themselves.
In early July, Gu Hong called again, saying that she had found a house, which was a three-room bungalow with a small yard and a small shed, close to the hospital, making it convenient for Ye Nuan to work.
"Okay, I think that's fine. Thank you, Auntie."
"Why are you being so polite? I'll have someone tidy up the place these next few days, and then I'll get some coal briquettes over there. Is Xiao Liu able to eat some eggs and rice porridge now?"
"Yes, he can. And this kid really loves steamed egg custard now, he eats half a bowl every day."
"It's good that you can eat! I've arranged everything here. You should also tell your parents so they don't have to worry. Speaking of which, this house isn't far from your parents' house, just two streets away."
"Okay. Huili is still trying to ask the factory for leave, we'll try to go back together."
Upon hearing this, Gu Hong became excited.
"Really? That's wonderful!"
Song Huili's husband is a police officer, Ye Nuan herself is also a soldier, and she also has a husband who is a regimental commander, so naturally they had to buy sleeper berths when they returned to Anshi with lots of luggage.
Moreover, Gu Hanchuan had personally booked soft sleeper tickets for them a week in advance.
Xiao Liu and Song Huili's daughters don't need tickets. Yueyue has been well-fed and raised by Ye Nuan these past few years, so she's grown taller quickly. Now she needs a half-price ticket to get on the train.
Three adult tickets and one half-price ticket are enough for a soft sleeper carriage.
Gu Hanchuan specially chose to put them in the same carriage. The soft sleeper had a door, which could be locked from the inside at night for better security.
With three children to take care of, you have to be extra careful!
Gu Hanchuan had originally planned to take leave and go along as well, but he ended up getting scolded by his boss.
Little Cannon thought he could take leave and take care of them along the way, but the hospital wouldn't approve it.
The main problem is that it takes too long, and the pharmacies are busy.
Gu Hanchuan and Qi Chen were actually a little worried, but fortunately Qi Chen knew the train conductor. He personally went over to greet him when they boarded the train and offered cigarettes to the other passengers, which put their minds at ease.
With the train conductor's help, things are naturally much safer.
Throughout the journey, Ye Nuan and Song Huili barely left the private room, except when they went to the restroom or to get hot water.
Occasionally, when the children start to cry, Ye Nuan would hold them and look out the window, or sing them a song, or play with them with toys.
As for meals, none of the three women trusted anyone to get the food, so they simply waited for the food cart to come and buy it, which saved them the trouble.
Moreover, Ye Nuan had specially gone to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy peach shortbread and sponge cake before setting off, so they only ate one meal on the train on the first day, and on the second morning they ate sponge cake, peach shortbread and malted milk powder.
When the train arrives at the station, there are fewer passengers on the soft sleeper side, so it won't be too crowded when getting off.
The train conductor personally helped them carry their bags off the train. Before Ye Nuan even got off, she saw her older brother looking around.
Ye Nuan and Song Huili had not returned for three years, and they were naturally overjoyed to see their relatives again.
Song Shaofeng came to pick them up in his car, and Ye Feng also borrowed a car from the factory, so the two cars were just right.
Gu Hong led Ye Nuan to the front of the courtyard and handed her the key.
"I was worried about safety, so I changed the lock."
"Auntie is so thoughtful."
When you have young children at home, it's always good to be cautious.
The courtyard was somewhat dilapidated, consisting of only three main rooms. A shed had been built on the west side, with a wood-burning stove underneath and several rows of coal briquettes piled up next to it, covered with several burlap sacks, presumably for waterproofing.
"The coal stove is inside the house. It rained here the day before yesterday, and I was afraid it would get wet and ruin the stove, so I put it inside."
Ye Nuan and the others had been on the train for three days and were exhausted.
After putting their things down, Ye Feng took them home first, and after they had dinner, he let them rest well.
Ye Nuan was to go to the hospital to report for duty the next day, and then make a phone call to Zhejiang Province.
In fact, Director Su initially suggested that Ye Nuan go to Shanghai for this medical exchange activity.
However, Ye Nuan thought that since she had finally managed to attend such an event, she still wanted to go back to her hometown to visit.
After all, Anshi is not a big city like Shanghai, and it's impossible for it to have such events every year. Since it's on the list this time, let's come back and take a look. Maybe next year Anshi Hospital won't be on the list.
Ye Nuan came here mainly to have a simple academic exchange with several doctors from the hospital. In addition, there are a few cases here that Ye Nuan is also quite interested in.
Ye Nuan is skilled in medicine, but this is only known to those in the upper echelons of society.
However, to ordinary people, Ye Nuan was just a young girl, and they didn't trust her.
Of course, if it were at the Zhejiang Provincial Military Hospital, the line of people waiting to see Ye Nuan would be incredibly long.
But this is Anshi, and Ye Nuan isn't famous here. Besides, communication isn't very advanced these days, and Ye Nuan has never wanted to be too high-profile, having refused newspaper interviews several times. So, Anshi Hospital didn't really react much to her arrival.
Some people even think that she was able to become a doctor because of her husband's influence; otherwise, how could someone so young earn more than three figures a month?
The salary levels of military doctors differ somewhat from those of ordinary doctors, and there are also some differences due to different regional economic conditions.
Before Ye Nuan received her university degree, her salary was one level higher than that of doctors of the same level. After receiving her degree, her salary increased by another level, and her bonuses and various benefits were also comparable to those of the hospital's associate chief physician.
When I go on a business trip to Anshi Hospital, I am treated as an associate chief physician.
This is precisely why it has drawn the ire of many medical staff.
