windy city rainy season

Obtaining the qualification to practice medicine in the United States is a waste of time and money. Four years of undergraduate education plus four years of medical school. Before graduation, one must pass the basic and clinical tests of the American Medical Licensing Examination in order to obtain a doctor of medicine (MD).After obtaining a degree, it is not considered to be qualified to practice medicine. It is necessary to pass the last step of the license examination during the resident period, which is an overall assessment of medical knowledge and clinical practice. Only after passing this step can one be considered to be qualified to practice medicine independently.Depending on the major, the training time for residents is three to eight years. After that, some people will choose an additional one to three years of professional training (Fellowship). When they get to the position of attending physician (Attending Physician), half of their lives will basically pass. Before becoming an attending doctor, the monthly salary was really not enough for the high tuition fees of medical school.

Chang Zheng is currently in the stage of just getting his MD degree, owes a butt loan to practice in a hospital, and is preparing for the final step of the license exam.

Tao Yu saw Chang Zheng at four o'clock in the morning the next day.

After staying up all night, Dr. Chang came home and found a living creature sleeping outside his room. After a closer look, he was sure it was not Tang Hainan.With the help of the moonlight, he saw two large suitcases in the corner again, and probably guessed that Mr. Tang might have brought back the suitcases.He didn't say anything, went back to his room, took a change of clothes and went to the guest bathroom to wash up.

While going to the bathroom with a toothbrush in his mouth, the door behind him was pushed open. The two people inside and outside the door didn't expect this situation, and stared at each other from the large mirror above the sink in a daze.Tao Yu realized that this should be the intern Tang Hainan was talking about. Looking in the mirror, the two of them were about the same height. Chang Zheng's image was a bit horrible, with messy hair, red eyes, and big dark circles on par with Tao Yu— —This doesn't look like a doctor, it's like a scalper who helps people line up at the entrance of the hospital!

Tao Yu glanced down, coughed in embarrassment, and exited respectfully to close the toilet door.

Back in the small living room, Tao Yu sat on the sofa and wanted to say hello to Chang Zheng after washing up, but before anyone came out, a "beep beep beep" sound suddenly sounded in the next bedroom, and then Chang Zheng was greeted by a gust of wind. The air was blown from the toilet into the bedroom, and then swept out with another gust of wind.

Tao Yu stared dumbfounded at the whirlwind blowing away, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses—being a doctor is a bit hard!

Before school started, Tao Yu found an illegal job in a restaurant in Chinatown.With his confidence in his own image, he thought that by brushing his face, he would be able to do the job of serving dishes, but the boss said that their store has a progressive training plan for employees, and newcomers all start from the backstage washing dishes.

Just wash the dishes, Tao Yu thought, who made himself short of money and work status--the F1 visa of foreign students does not allow part-time work to earn money.

When people are pushed into a desperate situation, they can often arouse the instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages to the greatest extent. In other words, those who know the current affairs are called heroes.Before this incident, Tao Yu would never have imagined that he would end up in this position. He grew up in a well-off family, and his education went smoothly. After graduating from university, he entered a state-owned enterprise in the energy industry, where his mother worked as an executive.The young man looks clean and energetic, and he is admired everywhere. He has lived in his twenties without encountering any setbacks until his affair with Wei Wei was exposed half a year ago.

Tao Yu shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly, he couldn't afford to eat anymore, why were he still thinking about those old things.

In less than three days, Tao Yu became acquainted with the chef. When the chef's cooking was hot, he quickly handed him a cup of herbal tea. He always carried a lighter in his pocket, and he would hand over a fire to anyone who smoked.He used to watch other people do these things, and his parents did not lack such discerning people. At that time, he looked down on such people, but now he thinks this is a science, and he has to do it naturally and quietly. It is not easy for people to feel kind and not feel that you are rushing to flatter.

It's not useless to flatter the master chef. In less than three days, Tao Yu was promoted from washing dishes to a side dish worker. After another week, the master chef personally taught him how to make a few dishes. He was too busy for meals. Sometimes, he even asked him to fry a few simple dishes for the guests - who would have thought that the only thing he could cook before going abroad was instant noodles.The salary of washing dishes and the salary of a cook are naturally not the same, and even the tip is also a big part of cooking.

After half a month, Tao Yu earned the rent and miscellaneous expenses for the next three months, and felt a little relieved.He didn't dare to tell Tang Hainan before that after paying the first month's rent, he only had less than three hundred dollars left.There is still [-] in a bank card, but that is the tuition fee for the first semester and cannot be changed.The money is his savings from working for two years. If he hadn’t been lavish before, he might not have to worry about the tuition fees for the whole school year. Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world. .

On the last Friday before school started, many people came to Chinatown for dinner, and the business in the store was extremely hot. The dishes cooked by the master chef were left on the table before they could be served. Come out and help with the food.Tao Yu adjusted his overalls, asked the table number, and came to the front with two dishes.

"Fish slices with seasonal vegetables, Kung Pao shrimp balls—" After reporting the name of the dish, Tao Yu raised his head, feeling that the customer sitting opposite him looked very familiar, so he couldn't help but take a second look.

The person opposite also looked over and said flatly, "Are you working here?"

Only then did Tao Yu realize: "Doctor Chang! I haven't seen you in the daytime yet!"

Chang Zheng raised his eyebrows, feeling that what he said was not humane, and the guests at his table laughed "hehe" and said, "You all see each other at night?"

Tao Yu also realized that these words were easy to associate, so he quickly explained: "No, no, we rent a house together. Doctor Chang leaves early and returns late, goes to the hospital before dawn, and only returns home in the middle of the night. He is still on duty every now and then, and usually has no chance to see each other during the day. .”

This is the truth, living under the same roof for three weeks, this is really the first time seeing Chang Zheng in broad daylight.It’s no wonder that Tao Yu didn’t recognize him at first glance. It’s because the scalper was so impressed on the first night. At this time, the other party looked like a different person. Tao Yu hadn’t noticed before. Chang Zheng’s eye sockets are very deep, and the bridge of his nose Tall and straight, it seems to have a bit of mixed blood taste.

There was a table next to customers who wanted to order, so Tao Yu turned around and greeted them.

When he walked away, Chang Zheng's friend turned around and smiled: "Roommate?"

Chang Zheng picked up a shrimp ball and said neither salty nor light: "Shutup."

When the store was at its busiest, a few policemen came to the door, but the diners didn't pay attention at first until there was a commotion in the back kitchen.Tao Yu rushed out from behind with a face full of panic, saw the police outside the main entrance of the restaurant, knew that the front and rear doors were blocked, and panicked in desperation.

Chang Zheng and his friends were about to pay the bill. Seeing his grief and indignation, Chang Zheng got up and asked, "What happened?"

"Check...check your identity..." Tao Yu had heard conversations with his colleagues recently, and he knew very well that being caught as an illegal worker was a consequence - deportation.

Chang Zheng glanced at the policeman at the front door, took advantage of no one's attention, pushed Tao Yu into the bathroom, and avoided the door.

"Undress!"

Tao Yu: "..."

Seeing the other party take off his T-shirt repeatedly, Tao Yu was a little dazed. He just staged a kiss in Mission: Impossible to avoid being hunted down. What is the purpose of taking off his clothes?Dr. Chang is in good shape...he glanced at it pretending to be calm, and then spurned himself, can he do this in a public place with a good fucking figure? !

"The police in the United States who arrest illegal workers don't care about the anti-pornography..." Tao Yu hesitated and asked.

Chang Zheng froze for a moment, threw the T-shirt in his hand to his face, and whispered: "What are you thinking?! Let you change clothes with me!"

"Ah? Oh!" Tao Yu finally came to his senses. Chang Zheng is a citizen who can work part-time at will. If a doctor comes to serve dishes during his break, the police can control him.

After coming out of the toilet, Tao Yuqiang calmly walked to Chang Zheng's table and sat down. The friend at the same table dragged his chin and looked at him with a smile on his face for a while, then stretched out his hand and said, "Hi, I'm Tony. "

"Tao Yu." Absently shaking hands with the other party, Tao Yu glanced at the policeman in the restaurant out of the corner of his eye.

Chang Zheng, who had put on his work uniform, came over. The white shirt was a little narrow on his body. He put a black notebook in front of Tao Yu, and said in the tone of prescribing a doctor's order to a patient: "This is your bill."

Tao Yu stared at the other party dumbfounded, the dumb man was suffering from Coptis chinensis and couldn't tell, wanting to cry but without tears, he thought that he had done him a great favor, so he just treated him as a thank you for a meal.He opened the folder and glanced at the bill. He reluctantly took out fifty dollars from his pocket, and said weakly, "Tell the cashier to give me a [-]% discount in cash."

Chang Zheng took a look at Tao Yu, put the money in his pocket with a smile on his face, turned around and left.
