Forced to marry a disabled man in the countryside? I'll repay you tenfold!

Chapter 9: Selling My Job to Prepare for Going to the Countryside!

Xie Lanhua was busily preparing breakfast. Uncle Su, meanwhile, was leisurely sipping tea and reading the newspaper, holding an enamel mug with a red "double happiness" character printed on it.

"Wanqing's up? Your aunt made cornmeal soup and fried eggs, your favorite dishes. Eat together."

Wow, the sun really did rise in the west!

When did the eldest uncle ever care about the life or death of the original owner?

"No, Uncle. I need to go to the hospital early today to finish the final handover of my work; I can't afford to be late." With that, she left.

"Okay, then come back early this afternoon. Let's have a good talk as a family before you move out."

Uncle Su squinted, forced to remain patient. Last night, he had been busy with Su Lingshan's wedding and had forgotten about Su Wanqing. He could only get the gold back this afternoon!

As soon as Su Wanqing left, Xie Lanhua went to rummage through Su Wanqing's storage room. After searching for a long time, she came out disappointed and shook her head at Su Jianguo: "I don't know where this girl hid the gold. Otherwise, she would have just said that we would keep it for her."

Back then, when this girl's parents died, she simply sold off her valuables, collected the compensation, and told Su Wanqing, "You're such a young girl, we'll keep this money for you, so you don't lose it!"

Just then, Su Yaoguang rushed out, carrying something in his arms. "Mom, I'm not eating! Zhang Zhuzi is treating me to a state-run restaurant!"

"These people are really something else! I cooked the food and now they're not going to eat it? Take it or leave it!"

Su Wanqing arrived at the entrance of the state-run restaurant.

Knowing that she would be going to the countryside tomorrow and would rarely be able to eat city food again, and that she had just exchanged a lot of grain coupons and meat coupons at the black market that morning, and that Zhou Yanshen had also given her a lot of coupons, she decided to buy more cooked food.

Su Wanqing lined up at the window and handed over the prepared tickets and money: "Comrade, please, five meat buns, five steamed buns, five fried dough sticks, and fill this jug with soy milk." She handed over a military water bottle.

The state-run restaurant has a limited supply; each person can only buy this much. They also have braised pork for lunch, but unfortunately, each person is limited to two servings.

The sales clerk glanced at her in surprise, but didn't ask any further questions. After checking the receipts and confirming they were correct, she quickly wrapped the food in oil paper and handed it out.

Su Wanqing carried the heavy food to a secluded spot. With a thought, she left only one meat bun and stored the rest in her spatial storage. The space was good, but these small items took up four slots!

There's not enough space, so we need to get more gold to upgrade faster!

However, once she goes to the countryside, she can slowly return these cooked foods tenfold!

The meat buns are huge and smell amazing!

Su Wanqing ate with her mouth full of oil, her eyes squinting happily. After finishing the steamed buns, she drank a pot of spiritual spring water—utterly satisfied!

"Ouch, something's not right!" Su Wanqing rubbed her stomach. "Why do I feel even hungrier?"

Not wanting to take any more steamed buns, she took out two large steamed buns instead. After eating the buns, she ate an apple and felt that was about right. Her appetite had doubled!

With a "smack," Su Wanqing slapped her forehead, secretly took out 50 jin of rice, and easily lifted it up. Then, she couldn't help but gasp—

"Not only has my appetite increased, but my strength has also increased. Could this be the effect of the spiritual spring?"

"No matter what, this is a good thing."

After leaving the state-run restaurant, Su Wanqing went straight to the health center.

She went directly to the head nurse, Wang Caifeng—her nephew had been a doctor's apprentice for over a year but had never been offered a permanent position; he was just a temporary worker.

Su Wanqing cut to the chase and stated her purpose: "Head Nurse Wang, would your nephew be interested in taking over my job? I'm planning to transfer it."

Wang Caifeng was stunned for a moment, then surprised and delighted. She lowered her voice and asked, "Xiao Su, are you serious? You really don't want this secure job?" These days, a permanent position is highly coveted.

Su Wanqing had already prepared her words, and at the opportune moment, she showed a hint of sadness on her face:

"Yes. My uncle wants me to get married. My in-laws hope I'll be a good wife and mother, taking care of my husband, and don't want me to be in the public eye. I think it's a waste to leave this position vacant, so why not give it to someone who needs it more, so I can continue to contribute to the revolutionary health cause?"

"Your in-laws are really old-fashioned!" Wang Caifeng wanted to comfort her but didn't know how, but her nephew's matter was more urgent. "Are you really sure you want to quit?"

Su Wanqing nodded.

Wang Caifeng sighed and offered a reasonable price: "Alright, how about 1200?"

These days, ordinary jobs pay only four or five hundred yuan, while supply and marketing cooperatives pay seven or eight hundred, but those with official positions in health centers earn even more.

Su Wanqing nodded. "It suits you."

Fearing that Su Wanqing might change her mind, Wang Caifeng immediately took her to the personnel department and, citing "special family reasons for her voluntary resignation, and the recommendation of Comrade Wang Guohua to replace her," quickly completed the formalities. With the money and goods exchanged, Su Wanqing's personnel file was dissolved.

After leaving the personnel department, Su Wanqing returned to the consultation room and, as usual, saw a few registered patients, fulfilling her last bit of responsibility.

She then wrote herself a prescription, citing the reason that she was about to go to the countryside to provide support and needed to prepare enough commonly used medicines. The prescription included chloramphenicol, a broad-spectrum antibiotic.

She arrived at the pharmacy with the prescription. "Sister Zhang, thank you for your help. I'm here to get the medicine."

Sister Zhang, with her legs crossed, continued knitting without stopping. Only after finishing a row of needles did she stop, stand up, and say, "Xiao Su, are you going to get your medicine yourself? Sister Zhang will get it for you right away. Please sit for a while."

Just as Sister Zhang turned to get other medicines, Su Wanqing's hand seemingly unintentionally brushed against the glass bottle containing chloramphenicol. With a thought, all fifty vials of chloramphenicol injection on the medicine shelf vanished instantly, stored in her spatial storage.

Inside the space, use the upgraded Golden Elixir! A flash of golden light—a tenfold return! Five hundred vials of chloramphenicol are neatly stacked in a corner of the space!

Having so many medications makes me feel so safe!

After completing the copying, she quickly put the original fifty vials back on the shelf without anyone noticing.
