life struggle

Wu Xiaojun immediately became nervous when he heard the words, he was at a loss for a while, and said in a muffled voice, "This matter is much more complicated than telling your father about going to my house on the Mid-Autumn Festival last year. If you tell them, it will definitely be a hundred wrong Agree, there is nothing they can do if they forcefully stop you. If you don’t tell them, it’s definitely not appropriate to tell them when the raw rice is ready to be cooked.”

Bai Lingyan said anxiously, "Don't just say that you can't do this or that, you have to think of a way!"

Wu Xiaojun was silent for a while and said, "This is the end of the matter. It is absolutely impossible not to talk about it. You can't talk about it with me. It's time for the two families to officially meet. In my opinion, let my father come and meet your parents. It might be better for him to tell your parents."

Bai Lingyan's heart is in a mess now, she has no idea, only Wu Xiaojun is her backbone, and she agrees to do this without hesitation.

Wu Xiaojun was not calm. As for the location of the unit her father signed for her, I don’t know what the situation is. Why don’t you feel the place first to see the situation, and it’s all about relaxing and relaxing, so she said, “Your father Have you ever been to the unit I told you about?"

Bai Lingyan said with a sad face, "No! Why are you asking this?"

Wu Xiaojun said heavily, "I don't know why, I want to see it!"

Bai Lingyan said displeasedly, "Why are you watching it at this time?"

Wu Xiaojun said, "Only after reading it can I feel at ease in my heart and have a bottom line."

The two sat on the bus for more than an hour, and got off the bus in Shenglin Town, which is more than ten kilometers away from the urban area.

Shenglin Town is an ancient cultural town with a history of more than 400 years. It was named after the Tang Dynasty official Shenggong was buried here.Since the reform and opening up, the traditional temple fair has been further improved and has gradually developed into the largest commodity wholesale and retail distribution center in Pingxi.

In the early 70s, the third company of Oil Construction Group was established here. The company's headquarters is located on the east side of Pingwan Avenue, and the company's family area is nearby.The two came to the company's headquarters, walked through two small alleys in the direction pointed by the guard, and came to a family courtyard. A three-story office building with about 40 houses stood in front of it. Bearing the brand of the staff hospital of the third company of Oil Construction Group.

The two went in directly. The building was deserted, and there were almost no patients. The staff on duty in several outpatient departments on the first floor were reading newspapers, drinking water and chatting. Most of the wards in the inpatient department on the second floor were locked. Three or four old comrades are getting infusions.

The two came down from upstairs and saw that the door of the outpatient stomatology department was open, and a 23-year-old male doctor was sitting inside, looking down at the newspaper, and walked in directly.

Seeing them coming in, the male doctor gently put down the newspaper in his hand, and asked with a smile, "Are you seeing a doctor?"

Wu Xiaojun smiled and said, "Exactly."

The male doctor asked, "Have you registered, who is seeing the doctor, and where is it uncomfortable?"

Wu Xiaojun said, "I haven't registered yet. A few days ago, I had a very painful tooth on the right side. I don't know what happened. I just took some anti-inflammatory drugs, and the pain became lighter, and I still felt a little uncomfortable. Please ask the doctor to give it to me." take a look."

The male doctor glanced at Bai Lingyan and said, "Go and register at the gate, and I'll show him first."

The male doctor examined Wu Xiaojun carefully, and said doubtfully, "There is nothing wrong with your teeth!"

Bai Lingyan put the registration certificate on the doctor's desk and stood quietly beside Wu Xiaojun.

Wu Xiaojun said that there is a fart problem, isn’t he just trying to get a little closer with you to understand the situation, “Maybe it’s because the inflammation has gone down and you can’t see it, alas, doctor, your accent is not from a local, right? It feels similar to my accent .”

The male doctor smiled and said, "You're right. I'm from Yuanzhen County, Pingdong. I graduated from Pingnan Medical College less than three years ago."

Wu Xiaojun said in surprise, "What a coincidence, we are still fellow villagers. I am from the suburbs of Yuanzhen City, how about you?"

The male doctor said happily, "My name is Liu Qunyi, from Qingtongzhong Township, which unit do you work in?"

Wu Xiaojun laughed and said, "My name is Wu Xiaojun. I'm a senior in Pingxi Medical College. I was visiting an old classmate in the company's family hospital. I passed by here. Why don't you have any patients in this hospital?"

Liu Qunyi sighed and said, "The conditions of the hospital itself are poor. In the past, it was better when all public expenses were reimbursed. Now the company's policy is relatively loose, and you can apply for medical treatment in any hospital. People go to social hospitals to see a doctor. Who will come?" Coming here is purely a decoration, it is like this all day long, and there are no patients."

Bai Lingyan asked, "How about your salary?"

Liu Qunyi said, "Anyway, they are all raised by the company, and the treatment is not bad. But no matter how good the treatment is, what can we do? I can't learn any skills here when I'm doing nothing. The current environment is extremely unfavorable to us, and layoffs are everywhere. Laid off, once laid off and unemployed, it will be difficult to work for individual clinics without skills.”

Wu Xiaojun asked, "How did you get here at that time, did you have relatives here or other ways?"

Liu Qunyi said regretfully, "I don't have any relatives here. At that time, the vice president of the hospital went to the school to recruit people. My comprehensive grades in school were relatively good, and the hospital was quite satisfied. I think Pingxi is a big city and a famous historical city. I can’t be wrong, so I signed the contract, and I didn’t expect it to be like this. I only regret that I didn’t go back to my hometown, and I can enter the county hospital easily with the major I studied.”

Coming out of the worker's hospital, Bai Lingyan glared at Wu Xiaojun, "You are really cunning, but you are lucky. The fellow villagers who met you heard some truths. It seems that today is the right time. Otherwise, I would have been kept in the dark. I don’t know, this place really can’t come.”

Wu Xiaojun said in a muffled voice, "If I don't do this, can I tell the truth. This hospital is really not good. If you come here in a daze, you will be ruined for the rest of your life."

Bai Lingyan choked with tears and said, "Seeing everything in front of me, I feel very lost and chilled. I didn't expect my dad to find me such a bad unit. This is the career destination they arranged for me. No matter what Whether I live or die in the future, they don’t care if they throw me here. No matter what I say, I won’t come here to work.”

Wu Xiaojun said distressedly, "Fortunately, we still have other preparations. When I get back, I will call third brother and ask my father to come and meet your parents."

In the evening, Wu Pingshun was cleaning up the wheat in the field, and Wu Xiaoliang came over, "Uncle, have you finished the wheat? How much is left?"

"Xiaoliang, I planted a new variety this year. There is enough fertilizer and enough rain. The wheat is growing well. According to preliminary estimates, it can produce more than 1000 catties per mu. Ten thousand catties of grain is not a problem. Looking at the white flowers When the grains are plump, I feel happy in my heart and work hard, and it’s almost over, and there are still a thousand and eight catties left.”

"Your wheat is growing really well, you can save some wheat seeds for me."

"No problem, just tell me how much you want, and I'll keep it for you."

"Uncle, when I came back from the county just now, I ran into Xiaosen in Xiguan, and said that Xiaojun had called, saying that there was something urgent, and asked you to go to Pingxi as soon as possible. I thought it was getting dark, so I asked Xiaosen to go back gone."

"Xiaosen said what happened?"

"I didn't say it."

"Looks like it's Bai Lingyan's business. If I'm not mistaken, tell me to see her parents."

"I was on a business trip some time ago, what's the matter with serving in the army?"

"Xiaojun found a daughter-in-law from Beimeng at the school. She said she was pregnant and came to our place. The work unit contacted the County Maternal and Child Health Hospital."

"Uncle, have you met the woman's parents? Do they agree to let her come here?"

"I haven't seen it, Xiaojun is fine."

"Uncle, it's not that I said something disappointing. I think this matter is a bit unclear. How can you find her a job without her parents' approval? You are too hasty and thoughtless. If you go, you must be mentally prepared to say nothing." .”

Hearing what Wu Xiaoliang said, Wu Pingshun felt uneasy. It stands to reason that Xiaojun should not let him go now. After all the procedures are completed, he will meet with Bai Lingyan's parents and discuss the matter of the child's marriage. Done, everyone is happy.Go now, there is nothing to say, it seems that Xiaojun is in trouble.

The more Wu Pingshun thought about it, the more worried he became, and he didn't want to work anymore. He gathered up the wheat and went home worried. A gust of wind blew by, and heavy rain fell from the sky like popping beans.

The old couple desperately ran into the field in the rain, and were suddenly dumbfounded. The good pile of wheat was washed around by the heavy rain and could not be collected at all.

Seeing the fruits of hard work and sweat disappearing in an instant, Mrs. Xiaojun was very sad. She threw away her umbrella and sat on the ground with her buttocks. Open your eyes, have pity on my old couple!".

Wu Pingshun stomped his feet angrily, and cursed, "You damn old woman, you just rushed, why are you crying? It's not because of that bastard Xiaojun. You're a vicious bastard, you're just causing trouble, you don't have to worry about it at all. Let's go, go home." After speaking, Xiaojun pulled her up and went home tremblingly in the rain.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon the next day, Wu Pingshun came to the school anxiously. When he saw Wu Xiaojun, he asked eagerly, "The family is very busy, why did you ask me to come?"

Wu Xiaojun said with a heavy heart, "Lingyan's father has asked someone to sign an "Employment Agreement" for her. He doesn't know about ours. Let me discuss it with Lingyan. You should take this opportunity to meet her father. It's better to talk face to face, after all, she is going to our place, so it won't be difficult for you to talk when you meet in the future."

Wu Pingshun asked a little discouraged, "Just for this, nothing else?"

Wu Xiaojun said seriously, "Well, nothing else."

Wu Pingshun complained, "Your mother and I thought it was a big deal. We were so worried at home. There are still many things at home. I can't spend time here with you. I will meet her father tonight and say Cheng said that he would leave tomorrow."

Wu Xiaojun told Bai Lingyan, "Go back and talk to your dad first, we will go later."

At around seven o'clock in the evening, Wu Xiaojun and Wu Pingshun came to Bai Lingyan's father's residence with gifts bought in the supermarket.Wu Xiaojun opened the door and saw her and her parents having dinner, came in and said with a smile, "Uncle, Auntie, my father is here to see you!"
