The heavens set sail from the courtyard

The next day, the commune secretary called everyone to the cafeteria. Wang Gang dragged a blackboard over and wrote more than 20 questions on it, all of which were about medical operations.

When the secretary announced that the clinic was recruiting nurses, everyone was very excited. Everyone knew that working in the clinic was much easier than working in the fields.

However, the questions Wang Gang asked were quite difficult. Most of these educated youth were 16 or 17 years old, and not many of them could understand the questions.

He Jiali couldn't understand some of the questions, but Tang Weimin reminded her that even if she didn't understand, she should write more words.

Wang Gang handed everyone a piece of white paper and then announced the start of the exam, which would last half an hour.

He Jiali raced against time, writing down what she knew first, and then writing down the parts she didn't know, focusing on finishing all the questions.

Most of the people around him were scratching their heads and thinking hard, but Tang Weimin simply handed in a blank paper.

Many of the educated youth knew that Tang Weimin and Wang Gang were brothers. Seeing that he didn't even pick up a pen, they became discouraged and thought that the exam was rigged.

Half an hour later, Wang Gang collected everyone's answer sheets and took them back to the clinic for grading. The results were announced three hours later.

"Tang Weimin, you have a good brother!"

"Tang Weimin, I see you handed in a blank paper. I'm afraid you've already been selected to work at the clinic!"

Some weird voices appeared around Tang Weimin.

"What nonsense are you talking about? My brother has always been fair in his work. If he wanted to get me into the clinic, why would he have to do this exam?" Tang Weimin said angrily.

"Humph, you are brothers, why should we get the benefit?"

"That's right, holding an exam is just to stop people from talking."

Tang Weimin said angrily: "Once the results come out, you will know that I have wronged my brother."

He Jiali was worried that Tang Weimin would let the cat out of the bag, so she pulled him aside to work and ignore those people with red eyes.

Tang Weimin said indignantly: "Now I finally understand why Youmin insisted on having an exam."

He Jiali advised: "Forget it! We are indeed in the wrong, just don't bother with them anymore."

Tang Weimin said with a smile: "Once you enter the clinic, you will be able to shut them up."

He Jiali sighed and said, "You really don't regret giving me such a good opportunity?"

Tang Weimin said sincerely: "Why regret it! As long as you are well, I don't care what I do."

He Jiali's pretty face turned red, and Tang Weimin's heart was very warm. If there were no outsiders around, he really wanted to hug He Jiali.

Three hours passed quickly, and Wang Gang announced the test results in the commune cafeteria. As expected, He Jiali won first place.

Wang Gang even specially published her answer sheet for everyone to see to show fairness.

He Jiali also saw her answer sheet and discovered that it was indeed her own handwriting, but the content was completely different. She answered every question correctly, so it was obviously not written by her.

When everyone saw He Jiali's answer sheet, they could only accept the result. Those who said that Wang Gang was manipulating the situation finally shut up.

Everyone saw that Tang Weimin, Wang Gang's elder brother, scored zero in the exam, and they also knew that the brothers did not cheat, so they were all impressed.

The commune secretary announced in public that He Jiali would be transferred to work in the health center, and everyone applauded and congratulated her.

He Jiali felt a little embarrassed and lowered her head in shame.

In the afternoon, Wang Gang transferred He Jiali over and started to guide the work.

"Sister Jiali, the clinic is usually very busy. Mondays and Tuesdays are outpatient clinic hours. From Wednesday to Saturday, I may have to go to the next village to see patients. You need to go with me."

"Can I do it?" He Jiali asked unconfidently.

"Don't worry! I will teach you little by little. It's not difficult." Wang Gang said, "You had good grades before. You will be able to get started with the work in the clinic quickly." He Jiali said gratefully, "Youmin, thank you for giving me this opportunity."

Wang Gang shook his head and said, "You don't have to thank me. This opportunity was given to you by my elder brother."

He Jiali blushed and said, "Youmin, can I ask you for a favor? Can you keep the matter between me and your elder brother a secret from your parents for now?"

Wang Gang laughed and said, "Are you worried that my parents won't agree with you being together?"

He Jiali asked worriedly: "Do you think they will agree?"

Wang Gang shook his head and said, "Since you know there will be so many obstacles in the future, why do you still want to start?"

He Jiali lowered her head and said, "I can't control myself."

Wang Gang raised his eyebrows, said nothing more, and began to introduce the work of the health center.

He Jiali listened very carefully and took out a pen and notebook to write down the key points.

Wang Gang felt relieved when he saw that He Jiali had a good attitude towards learning.

For the next period of time, Wang Gang took He Jiali to see patients and taught her step by step without keeping anything to herself.

He Jiali usually just acts as Wang Gang's assistant. The learning curve is not difficult and she gets the hang of it quickly.

Her love of learning also made Wang Gang feel a lot more relaxed. Wang Gang also consciously taught He Jiali some veterinary knowledge, preparing to train her in that direction.

Sometimes Tang Weimin would go to the clinic at night. In addition to giving him special treatment, Wang Gang also allowed him and He Jiali some time alone.

The two were in their twilight years, and Ho Ka-lai was grateful for Tang Weimin's sacrifice, so their relationship progressed smoothly. They held hands, hugged, and kissed each other on the cheek. When they were about to break through the last level, Ho Ka-lai still managed to hold back.

Two years passed by unknowingly, and He Jiali had adapted to life in the countryside. She would often write letters home to reassure her parents.

He Changsheng and Liu Meixin didn't know that their daughter was with the boy from the Tang family. They had their own troubles recently.

Liu Meixin had a miscarriage. She was very active at work and worked hard even with a big belly. However, she slipped and lost the baby in her belly.

This child is the boy that He Changsheng has been thinking about.

The couple was immersed in great pain, and their relationship was affected, and they slept in separate beds for a long time.

When Mr. Tang and Mrs. Tang from next door heard about this, they were naturally very happy and said that the He family was simply not destined to have a son.

However, they only talked about this at home and did not expose the scars in front of He Changsheng.

The surrounding environment has become increasingly worse recently, and many people have suffered.

Both the Tang and He families are working-class families, so the impact is not big. In addition, the eldest brother Tang followed Wang Gang's advice, behaved honestly in his work and life, and did not get involved in messy things.

In 70, Da Lao Tang’s boss met with misfortune and the position of section chief became vacant. He was promoted to section chief as expected.

Because of the loss of his son, He Changsheng devoted himself to his work. His work performance was obvious to all, and he was promoted to director.

Perhaps because of the promotion, He Changsheng drank a few more glasses that day, and as a result, Liu Meixin became pregnant again.

This child carried the expectations of the entire family, but unfortunately it turned into deep disappointment in the end.

Liu Meixin still gave birth to a daughter, but He Changsheng was too lazy to even give her a name, so he let her take Liu Meixin's surname Liu and named her Liu Xiaoling.

At the same time, He Jiali and Tang Weimin also received notices to return to the city.

This time they went home, and brought one more person with them! (End of this chapter)
