Rebirth 1983

Chapter 42 The Rival and the Bicycle
Xu Jiaojiao took Chen Song to the county hospital bus.

There are only three doctors and three nurses in the bus, including the driver, a total of seven people.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Deputy Director Zhang of the Department of Internal Medicine. Deputy Director Zhang is the Dean's proud student. He has studied in BJ, which is amazing." Xu Jiaojiao pointed to a middle-aged man with a colorful expression sitting behind Chen Song.

"Hello Director Zhang, I'm Chen Song." Chen Song said hello.

Hearing this, deputy director Zhang showed a smile on his serious face, reached out his hand to shake Chen Song's hand, and asked, "Where is the young man from, is he Jiaojiao's boyfriend?"

"Deputy Director Zhang, what nonsense are you talking about!" Xu Jiaojiao blushed and stomped her feet: "Really, I just love to talk nonsense."

Xu Jiaojiao explained to Chen Song: "Chen Song, don't mind. Don't look at Deputy Director Zhang looking serious. In fact, he is very funny in the hospital. The nurses in the hospital like to chat with him."

"It's okay, Director Zhang. I'm from Chenjia'ao nearby. I'm going to visit Yangjiacun. Didn't I happen to meet Dr. Xu? Just take me for a ride and I'll show you the way."

Chen Song nodded, rubbed his nose, glanced at Xu Jiaojiao, and found that she was not angry, so he didn't care about Deputy Director Zhang's teasing.

"That's a good relationship, thank you Brother Chen." Deputy Director Zhang smiled.

"This is Deputy Director Liu of the Department of Surgery." Xu Jiaojiao pointed at the slightly bald man with a cold tone.

Chen Song was a little puzzled. Xu Jiaojiao's introduction to this person was too simple. Looking back, Deputy Director Liu looked only in his early thirties, but his scalp was already bald. He was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, which looked a bit nondescript.

"Hi, Director Liu." Chen Song stretched out his hand to him.

Deputy Director Liu ignored Chen Song's outstretched hand, and only saw him glance at Chen Song with a trace of disdain on the corner of his mouth: "Boy, what's your relationship with Jiaojiao?"

"Deputy Director Liu, please call my name Xu Jiaojiao, I don't know you that well."

Xu Jiaojiao interrupted Deputy Director Liu and glared at him.

Now, Chen Song fully understood, it turned out that this person was Xu Jiaojiao's admirer and suitor, no wonder he was so hostile towards him.

"Director Liu has lost his mind, Sister Jiaojiao and I are just friends."

Chen Song just wanted to take a taxi, but he didn't want to be hated just like that.

"It's better to be like this." Deputy Director Liu adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, glanced at Chen Song expressionlessly, then turned his head to look at Xu Jiaojiao, and instantly changed into a flattering expression: "Jiaojiao, am I worried about the messy friends you have made? Looking at his clothes, you can tell that he has mud legs from the country. Why do you still drag him into the car?"

"That's enough, Deputy Director Liu. What kind of friends I make and how to make friends are my own business, and have nothing to do with you. Please don't meddle in your own way." Xu Jiaojiao became angry, and her heart bulged and relaxed with the anger.

"Deputy Director Liu, I don't want to hear your words. What's wrong with the mud legs?" Chen Song didn't want to get involved between him and Xu Jiaojiao, but what this person said made Chen Song feel uncomfortable: "Isn't our country built by a group of mud legs? Three generations later, who is not mud legs? Just thinking like you, you can even be an elite doctor in the hospital?"

Deputy Director Zhang and the three female nurses sitting next to him all glared at Deputy Director Liu.

Deputy Director Zhang even stood up and scolded: "Director Liu, I think it's better for you to sit down and shut up, otherwise I don't mind talking to the dean about your performance when you went to the countryside."

Hearing this, Deputy Director Liu opened his mouth to say something, but seeing the expressions of his colleagues around him, he immediately closed his mouth, cast a bitter glance at Chen Song, and sat down in his seat.

"Brother Chen, I'm sorry. On behalf of our hospital, I apologize to you. I hope you don't mind." Deputy Director Zhang was a little embarrassed, and apologized like Chen Song in embarrassment.

"No need for Director Zhang, I'm just a little upset, you don't have to do this, I have no intention of doing anything." Chen Song naturally wanted to give Xu Jiaojiao and this kind-hearted Director Zhang face, and he would not ignore it.

"Chen Song, let's show the driver the way first." Xu Jiaojiao pulled Chen Song to the back of the main driver.

Chen Song pointed out the way to Yangjiacun to the driver master, the master nodded to show that he understood, so he started the minibus and drove in the direction Chen Song pointed.

Only the three female nurses sitting at the rear of the car were whispering. Deputy Director Zhang did not speak, and took a nap with his eyes closed, while Deputy Director Liu stared at the backs of Chen Song and Xu Jiaojiao with resentment on his face.

"By the way, Chen Song, aren't you from Chenjiaao? What are you doing in Yangjiacun?"

Xu Jiaojiao saw that the whole bus was quiet and a little bored, so she started chatting with Chen Song.

"I made some money, so I built a new house and planned to order some furniture from an old carpenter in Yangjia Village. The old carpenter's craftsmanship is the best in all villages. It is said that my ancestors once worked in the palace."

Chen Song also felt bored, even if he went by car, it would take at least half an hour, so he chatted with Xu Jiaojiao.

"Is that why you plan to walk there? It's a long way, isn't it?" Xu Jiaojiao asked him in surprise.

"It's okay, it's about a dozen miles away."

"Didn't you ride a bike there?" Xu Jiaojiao asked.

"Bicycle? I want to buy one, but no matter how expensive it is, I can't get a bicycle ticket." Chen Song shook his head and sighed softly.

"It's not easy to get a ticket. I'll get it for you. Our hospital has bicycle tickets, but it only costs money." Xu Jiaojiao patted her thigh and said excitedly.

"Is there such a good thing? Then please ask Sister Jiaojiao to get me a bicycle ticket, I will buy it!" Chen Song looked happy.

The current bicycles are still Phoenix brand [-] bars, sturdy and durable, they are unique in this era, and they have a wide range of uses. Even if they are getting married and pulling brides, they will always use this bicycle, and it has a face.

"It seems that you have made a lot of money during this period. You have finished building a house and are ready to buy a bicycle. That's fine!" Xu Jiaojiao gave him a thumbs up, admiring: "You see, you will have a house and a car by then, and the next step is to find someone to marry."

"How can it be so fast, I'm busy making money?" Chen Song smiled.

"What's the matter, didn't your family tell you about a matchmaker or something? You're quite old, right? In the countryside, many people's children of your age are running around all over the place."

Xu Jiaojiao covered her mouth and smiled, her big eyes were brimming, and her slender thighs were turned up, revealing her white ankles.

"Don't talk about me, sister Jiaojiao, you are also single, you can be regarded as a laughing stocker."

Chen Song knew that Xu Jiaojiao was not too young. In this day and age, let alone the countryside, even if she was in the city, she was a serious old leftover woman.

"Isn't it because I haven't found a suitable one all the time? All the ones introduced by my family are weird, and none of them are normal."

Xu Jiaojiao was annoyed when she mentioned this, and immediately sighed, with an expression of lovelessness.

"Don't you still have a suitor?"

Chen Song nodded his head and signaled Xu Jiaojiao to look at Deputy Director Liu behind him.

"Okay, you Chen Song, if you dare to use me as a sniper, see if I don't hit you."

Xu Jiaojiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and lightly punched Chen Song on the shoulder.

"As a doctor, deputy director Liu has good skills. Otherwise, he wouldn't be promoted to deputy director at this age. It's just that he is too arrogant and doesn't get on well with most people in the hospital. In addition, he is also ugly. I can't appreciate it."

Being punched so lightly by Xu Jiaojiao, Chen Song looked like I was hurt, and leaned on the back of the chair, making Xu Jiaojiao chuckle.

Deputy Director Liu looked at the two people who were acquainted with each other chatting and laughing constantly, his eyes were gloomy, and his face became more and more gloomy.

The two chatted about interesting things, and after about half an hour, the driver's voice came out.

"Everyone, I saw the sign of Yang Family Village, we will be there soon."
