XXVI. First arrival in City K

The next day, An Ruqiao waited downstairs with her suitcase early in the morning.

The time to get to K city is not short, two weeks. In addition to a change of clothes, she also brought hygiene products, disinfectants, disposable bedding and other things she had to use.

An Ruqiao, who is all-round in housework, is also very neat and tidy. Although there is no serious obsessive-compulsive disorder, An Ruqiao also put away all the things that he wants to take away. There are a lot of things, but when you turn it into luggage, you only have a large suitcase, plus a fanny pack for your phone, charger, wallet and keys.

The gynecology department of our hospital and other hospitals in the city also have places to go to this exchange meeting in K City, and one of them, Dr. Zhang, will pick her up and take her to K City.

Dr. Zhang, whose full name is Zhang Chang, is a gynecologist in the same hospital as An Ruqiao, who is married and whose wife is about 23 weeks pregnant.

They are all colleagues, he and An Ruqiao naturally know each other, and they have contact information for each other. In addition, Dr. Zhang often accompanies his wife to prenatal checkups, and An Ruqiao, who has made appointments for prenatal checkups, is an expert who sits in for consultations, so the two are quite familiar and have a good relationship.

There is no way, there are only two obstetricians in their hospital, and there is only one female doctor, An Ruqiao.

Regardless of the department, there are always more male doctors than female doctors. It's not that there is any professional discrimination, but that many of the things doctors do are manual work. In hospitals, doctors are always predominantly male, while ninety percent of nurses are female.

In ordinary departments, such as surgery, internal medicine, otolaryngology, etc., patients can basically achieve gender equality, and there is no doubt about the doctor's professional level because of gender. But in obstetrics and gynecology, there is a bit of "sexism".

Most women and their husbands prefer to have their wives seen by a female doctor when they see a gynecology or obstetric problem in the hospital.

Maybe it's not discrimination, but the introverted ones that have been passed down from their bones make it impossible for most people to be untroubled when the opposite sex looks at their bodies. For various reasons, a large percentage of people always wear tinted glasses when they see male nurses, male obstetricians and gynecologists, and female andrologists, urologists.

Even though Dr. Zhang was originally a "discriminated against" male gynecologist, his thoughts were no different from others.

It's only a two-hour drive to K City. Taking into account An Ruqiao's habit of opening windows for ventilation, he did not get on the highway during the whole process, and only took the national highway and provincial highway.

Dr. Zhang subconsciously provided more convenience for An Ruqiao, so that An Ruqiao could "take more care" when giving his daughter-in-law a check-up and future surgery.

Maybe this is the sophistication of human feelings.

Dr. Zhang sent An Ruqiao safely to the B&B.

Today is the first day of the exchange. On the first day, a good start will always not go straight to business, but to get the reception problem right first.

As the host, the Health Commission of K City naturally has to do a good job in reception, and it is not polite to lose courtesy or lose face. In a word: I want our guests to feel at home.

The doctors who came to exchange and study only need to make a card today, and they can go to their accommodation to rest. An Ruqiao didn't live in a place arranged by the unified arrangement, and she wasn't going to go when she checked in.

Dr. Zhang would clock in for her, which, in his words, was "a no-brainer". Since Dr. Zhang offered to help, An Ruqiao would not refuse.

It's more reassuring for you to accept a small relationship like this, than to reject it.

The location of the booked B&B is quite remote, in a neighborhood that does not look new. The buildings in the community are all 11 floors, and the highest 11-storey building type is called "small high-rise".

Do not enter from the main entrance of the community, but enter through the small iron gate on the side, and there are many combination lock boxes hanging on the small iron door, which are used to put access control cards.

An Ruqiao pulled the suitcase, took out her mobile phone, and according to the picture sent by the customer service of the homestay, took out the access card from the password box, and locked it back.

On the second floor of the first building on the right hand side of the side door, there is a sign that looks good and has a green ecological meaning - Green Art Ecological B&B.

Yes, this B&B is very hidden, on the second to fourth floors of the old residential building. As for the first and fourth floors of the same building, they are all ordinary residential houses.

Swipe the elevator card, go to the second floor, room 213, and then enter the password in the fingerprint password lock in front of the door, and finally send a message to the customer service to confirm the check-in. This contactless way of staying at the homestay is still very convenient.

The room is very large, complete with ordinary household appliances, one bedroom, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, fifty square meters, and most importantly, in the living room, there is a large leather three-person sofa.

Just enough to sleep on.

After entering the room, An Ruqiao began to get busy.

First disassemble the disposable bedding you brought, put the square disposable pillowcase on the pillow cushion of the sofa, then take the disposable bed sheet to wrap the sofa tightly, and finally replace the quilt on the bed with a disposable quilt cover and move it to the sofa.

After taking care of the "nest" that you will sleep in these days, the disinfection work will begin.

Boil the water first, scald the toilet seat, and then spray with disinfectant. After that, the washing machine and dryer are completely cleaned and disinfected, and finally the disposable slippers that you bring with you are replaced.

The slippers also provided by the B&B are blue plastic home slippers. However, An Ruqiao will never be able to wear the plastic slippers provided by this kind of homestay hotel. Not to mention whether there is athlete's foot left by the previous people on it, just thinking about the possibility that so many people may have passed through it, An Ruqiao panicked.

After all the preparations for disinfection to satisfy my quirks, it was already past twelve o'clock.

Bianruqiao usually eats lunch a little later.

There's no need to cook your own meals during a business trip, and it's good to eat out once in a while.

Going downstairs to forage for food, An Ruqiao had already taken care of lunch. When she got off the bus at the gate of the community just now, she saw a "cross-legged beef" driving in the small commercial street opposite.

There are two theories about the origin of the name "stilted beef". One is that the taste is particularly delicious, and people can't help but hook their toes when eating, and the other is that when the beef originated from the warped foot, because the taste is very good, it is full every day, and there are many people in line, so the guests who sit outside and wait in line are all stilted on their legs.

All in all, it's delicious.

K City is not the birthplace of stilted beef, and I don't know if this one is authentic or not. However, An Ruqiao is a carnivore who likes to eat meat, and since he saw it when foraging, he basically wouldn't let go of high-protein food like beef.

was walking towards the shop of stilted beef, An Ruqiao was suddenly stopped.

"Beauty! Good luck with beautiful women! Just delay you for a minute, have you ever seen a little boy? It's about this height, and it looks like this......"

The woman who stopped her gestured to her thighs, and flipped out the photo in her wallet to show An Ruqiao.

It's just 20 degrees at noon in spring. In this slightly cool weather, this woman was sweating profusely.
