Gao Xiaoan got up at six o'clock the next morning. Half an hour later, carrying a crossbody bag containing a water glass, a notebook and a pen, she left the guest house in a state of excitement.

Lin Qian thought she would come back at least to take a rest at noon, but she didn't expect to see her return to the room with a tired look on her face until seven o'clock in the evening.

The contrast between the facial expressions before going out and after coming back is so huge! Lin Qian hurriedly poured her a glass of water, and then asked her if she had eaten?

Gao Xiaoan nodded, too tired to speak.

Lin Qian stood behind her, helped her untie her braid, and gently pressed Gao Xiaoan's temples to help her relax.

Maomao also ran over, clenching her little hands into small fists to help her mother beat her legs.

After a while, Gao Xiao'an spoke: "Today we went to the commune before seven o'clock. Director Yang, who was in charge of the health department, said a few words and made some demands. Then someone took a dozen of us who had come for training. Went to the county hospital.”

"The things taught in the hospital are messy and orderly, including bandaging, injections, first aid, and prescribing medicines. Children cannot take some medicines, and the dosage of medicines is different from adults. All of this has to be learned by rote within a month."

"After eating in the hospital cafeteria at noon, the doctors were free to come over and teach us. In the afternoon, we continued to study with them in the hospital. The whole day was spinning like a top."

Just as Gao Xiaoan was about to ask Lin Qian and Maomao how they were doing today, there was a knock on the door of their room.

"Sister Xiao'an, I came to see you to borrow my notes!"

"Here we come!" Gao Xiao'an tied up his hair casually and said to Lin Qian with a smile: "The only exciting news today is that I met a friend we all know."

All friends? Lin Qian curiously followed to the door.

When I opened the door, I saw that it was Chi Yuyuan who had treated them to rice cakes in Harbin!

"Lin Qian and Maomao are here too!" Chi Yuyuan was very excited to meet again a few months later. "It's a pity that Pearl didn't come, otherwise we could get together and chat again!"

Since you have met an acquaintance, let’s put aside the notes.

Lin Qian asked Maomao to draw and play by herself, then poured a glass of water for Chi Yuyuan, and the three of them chatted about their current situation.

"Zhenzhu and I plan to build a house in Baishanling Brigade." Chi Yuyuan curled his lips, "There are too many people in the educated youth spot over there. Five lesbians slept on the same kang. Pearl and I were the last ones to come. We could only sleep on the side because it was too cold in winter! So we had to move out and stay with relatives.

"But it's not convenient to live all the time. Pearl and I agreed that each of us would pay half of the money to build a single room in the village and move in there. My cousin said that the village does not need to pay for the land grant. It only costs a few yuan for each person to hire someone to build a house. Yes. What about you?"

After hearing that Lin Qian and the others moved into a single room directly, Chi Yuyuan was extremely envious. Even if they had to spend money to buy it, it was better than the hassle of building a house by themselves.

Chi Yuyuan's parents' hometown is in Baishanling, so there are many local relatives, and she knows more information than Lin Qian and others.

There are dozens of villages in Beijiang County, and some large villages are home to thousands of people. The demand for barefoot doctors is currently in short supply in every village.

Now the attitude of the county is to provide strong support. If you pass the training exam, you can return to the village to open a clinic and eat national food.

"It is difficult to learn medicine. There are not even many doctors in the county hospital. In the past, the doctors in the village were not so much good at treating patients as they were good at prescribing Xuan Ming powder."

"And ever since a doctor in a village prescribed medicine randomly and died, the barefoot doctor exam has become increasingly difficult! The passing rate has been very low every time in these years."

Chi Yuyuan sighed, took a sip of water, and then continued, "There is actually a barefoot doctor in the Baishanling Brigade, who is my uncle. But he is already over 50 this year. Last year, he gave a young man an injection and his Several needle holes were inserted into the back of the hand, and finally the blood vessel was found."

"This year I went to the countryside to become an educated youth. When winter came, my uncle saw the hat I made for him. He said that I was good at needlework and I could get injections easily. He recommended me to be a barefoot doctor. I thought that would be a good relationship, but I didn't expect it. After I got to the team and passed, my uncle looked for medical books for me to read."

"I read medical books all winter and took notes in a thick book. On the first day of training today, I discovered that the actual operations of nurses are completely different from what is written in the books!"

Chi Yuyuan's tone was extremely sad and angry. She was hit too hard today. She thought it was an open-book exam, but she found that the paper did not match the book!

Gao Xiaoan understood her feelings very well, because she also suffered such a blow today.

What did the barefoot doctor say? You have to know a little bit of everything, but you can’t master anything. So in this one-month training, they have to learn to be doctors and nurses.

"No more chatting, Sister Xiao'an, please lend me your notes and make up for it! Fortunately, you are here, otherwise I would be the only lesbian. Why are all the lesbians sent here from other villages? Is it obvious that lesbians are looking for injections? The veins are more accurate and more careful.”

Because most of the people who can be sent to study and learn in the countryside are boys at home, silly kids! Lin Qian and Gao Xiaoan looked at each other and sighed silently.

Chi Yuyuan took a pen and started writing quickly under the lamp. Lin Qian leaned over and looked at it for a while. In just one day, Gao Xiaoan filled ten pages of paper, from neat handwriting to cursive writing.

No wonder I’m so tired when I come back. It seems that this training is not easy and there are a lot of things to learn.

Early the next morning, Lin Qian heard slight movement. She looked sleepily at Gao Xiao'an who had already gotten up and packed up, and glanced at her watch. Five-thirty?

"It's only half past five, it's still very early!" Lin Qian wondered if she had read the wrong time.

Gao Xiao'an replied softly: "You continue to sleep, I will go out to review yesterday's notes under the street lamp."

No wonder Gao Xiaoan asked her to sleep with Maomao last night. This was Lin Qian's last thought before she fell asleep.

It was already half past seven in the morning when she woke up again. Lin Qian took Maomao downstairs with a washbasin and toothbrush to wash up, and then had breakfast in the guest house. Of course, she gave money and food.

Naturally, the taste is not as good as that of state-owned restaurants, but they only have a small meal fee, and the food is brought from the village.

The county commune officer said that you could go to the commune canteen to eat, but you still had to walk a long way to pay for food, so Lin Qian simply ate at the guest house.

After eating, Lin Qian took Maomao to the Xinhua Bookstore in the county. The last few times she came to the county, she either didn't have enough time or the bookstore was closed. Taking advantage of the time this time, she planned to buy more books and take them back to Heilingtun. look.

I don’t know if Xinhua Bookstore sells textbooks now. Although Maomao is smart, he still needs to study systematically.
