Su Lingwu had already prepared herself mentally before coming, probably because she was attracted by her medical skills, but she didn't know what the conditions would be.

Originally, Su Lingwu hadn't planned to go back to work so early; she wanted to wait until after the baby was born so she could use the time to read more books.

I didn't expect the division commander to be in such a hurry.

How could Division Commander Lin not be anxious? You have to understand how important it is for an army to have a good medical team.

A good traditional Chinese medicine doctor can solve so many problems.

Firstly, soldiers suffer from a lot of overwork and strain during training. Due to large-scale military competitions, high-intensity training, grenade throwing, cross-country running, bayonet fighting, and construction work, there are many problems such as shoulder, waist, knee, ankle sprains, and lumbar muscle strain.

Many of these problems are chronic injuries. Western medicine can only temporarily relieve the pain and cannot cure the root cause. Moreover, they are prone to recurrence. Soldiers can only rest and recuperate, thus being unable to continue training. These are non-combat casualties.

Acupuncture and topical ointments are effective and shorten the recovery time. Moreover, the cold winters in the north cause many soldiers to suffer from rheumatism, joint pain, and other ailments, making traditional Chinese medicine very suitable for conditioning their bodies.

Secondly, Western medicines and injections also need to be allocated, which costs a lot of money, and the inventory is limited. During wartime, medicines are in short supply.

Traditional Chinese medicine is different. Acupuncture only requires silver needles, and many Chinese herbs can be collected from the local mountains, making the cost extremely low and not consuming much of the scarce Western medicine quota.

Thirdly, many internal medicine ailments, miscellaneous diseases, and seasonal illnesses are difficult for Western medicine to treat. During summer outdoor training, heatstroke, gastrointestinal upset, nausea, and dizziness are better addressed by Traditional Chinese Medicine, which can stabilize symptoms without intravenous fluids.

Many soldiers suffer from insomnia due to high stress levels and long-term intense training, resulting in headaches, neurasthenia, and the inability to take Western medicine regularly.

For dysentery and seasonal colds, combining traditional Chinese medicine with other treatments can save on antibiotics.

Fourthly, the division hospital not only cares for soldiers, but also for their families, the elderly, and children. Traditional Chinese medicine is more suitable for treating chronic diseases such as menstrual cramps in women, postpartum weakness, and poor digestion in children.

With so many people in the family compound, having a reliable traditional Chinese medicine doctor greatly reduces the pressure on the hospital's Western medicine outpatient department.

That's why Commander Lin values ​​Su Lingwu so much.

"Little Su is here, have a seat."

"Since you're pregnant, we won't give you tea; we'll just give you plain water."

Knowing that Su Lingwu was pregnant, the teacher did not pour her any tea.

"Thank you, sir."

"Xiao Su, we won't beat around the bush. We really appreciate your medical skills and want you to contribute more to the family compound. Naturally, we won't treat you unfairly. We'll definitely offer you the best possible compensation so you won't suffer any losses."

Su Lingwu lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. "Commander, Political Commissar, but I am currently pregnant, and it is very likely that I will be carrying twins. I am afraid that I will not be able to handle the task and will only cause trouble for the troops."

To be honest, if she weren't pregnant, she really would have liked to try.

After all, doctors need to accumulate more experience. No matter how many books she reads, it's useless if she doesn't put them into practice; it's just empty talk.

Her advantage is her good memory; she can memorize a book after reading it twice. Although she has a wealth of theoretical knowledge, she lacks practical experience.

It was a good opportunity, but she was pregnant, especially in the later stages, and it was impossible for her to sit at the office all day.

The division commander and political commissar did smile, clearly indicating that they had already considered the possibility of Su Lingwu's pregnancy.

"Xiao Su, we wouldn't have let you come here without a foolproof plan. We know you're pregnant and it might be inconvenient for you in the future, so we've made a special exception that you can take leave if you need to. The consultation time each day won't be so long. In the morning, it's 9 to 11 am, and in the afternoon, it's 2 to 5 pm, three hours in total, for a total of five hours a day."

"Of course, you can rest when no one is around. We've arranged a room for you to rest. In the later stages, we'll give you two months of maternity leave to rest, so you definitely won't have to work so hard."

"Moreover, in terms of compensation, we'll give you the highest possible salary of 107 per month. This is the highest we can offer. You should know that doctors with less experience only earn a little over 40 per month, and those with some experience earn a little over 60 per month. This 107 is the highest salary we can offer."

When Su Lingwu heard the two men mention a monthly salary of 107, she shamefully felt tempted.

The reason, of course, is that too much was given.

More than a hundred!

This is money she earned herself.

Actually, if Commander Lin hadn't discovered some more hidden matters, and Su Lingwu's pharmaceutical abilities weren't extraordinary, he probably wouldn't have given her such high treatment.

Upon learning this news, Division Commander Lin decided to do everything in his power to retain this talent. At the very least, Fu Linchuan hadn't been transferred away, and Su Lingwu's abilities couldn't be wasted during her time in their military region.

"If you agree, there will be more benefits than just this." The political commissar and Lin Shi exchanged a smile, seeing that Su Lingwu was interested, and added another bargaining chip.

"What else?"

"Besides your high salary of 107 yuan a month, plus various ration coupons, we've also arranged a job for your mother."

"Your mother and brother are coming over. Your family's food ration must be tight, right? I know. Fu Linchuan has a high salary and can support his family, but always buying expensive food is not a long-term solution. If she had her own food ration and earned her own salary, she would definitely feel different."

"so……"

The political commissar produced two job introduction letters, both of which were stamped.

"This is the job we arranged for your mother. The bathhouse in the residential compound just happens to need someone to collect bath tickets. Your mother is quite suitable. It's a shift job, and there's another person on the side. The bathhouse opens at 5:30 pm and closes at 8:30 pm every night. She only works for a little over three hours. It's not tiring, and the hours are short. The monthly salary is 22 yuan. Although it's not much, there's a food ration."

Su Lingwu's eyes lit up; it would be wonderful if she could get her mother a job.

She knows that a person who doesn't work for a long time and doesn't have a stable source of income will feel very insecure.

She never expected that the military would help her mother find a job.

Twenty-two yuan a month, though not much, was enough to give Xu Meili peace of mind.

"Wouldn't this be inappropriate? I hope it won't put the two leaders in a difficult position?"

Su Lingwu could imagine the uproar the people in the compound would cause once they found out.

You know, a job is incredibly valuable at this time.

So many family members are unemployed and are desperately hoping to be given some kind of job to supplement their income.

She got two jobs at once; without a doubt, how many people would be jealous of her.

Although that's what she said, her anxious little hands were indeed holding two work certificates in her hands.

"Haha, you know, we've gone to great lengths to keep someone as talented as you."

Commander Lin specially arranged for the military hospital to set up a traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture clinic. The room was fully equipped, except for her starting work.

"Since the leaders trust me so much, I can't let them down, so I'll reluctantly agree."

"But let me make this clear beforehand: if anyone causes trouble, I won't hold back."

"Hahaha, who dares to bully you? We'll stand up for you!"
