"But this is obviously ......" Ye Qian wanted to explain that it was night at this time, and the temperature was still about forty degrees, Lin Wanqiao told her to burn charcoal for heating? But thinking that Lin Wanqiao had accurately predicted every time, she held back the second half of her sentence.

"Starting tomorrow, you and I will chop wood, and those cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods in your family will not be taken care of for the time being, and we will talk about it when your father comes back. If you are afraid that they will take possession of what you have stored, you must store it with me first.

Also, give a word to your father, and exchange the excess materials with others, all of which will be exchanged for quilts and clothes for the winter. ”

Now in this high temperature, I believe that warm things such as down jackets and quilts can be easily replaced.

Although Ye Qian had doubts, she still obediently agreed.

Lin Wanqiao asked the hospital for a few days off.

The men in the family all have their own affairs, so every evening after the temperature drops, Lin Wanqiao takes Ye Qian and Yang Yujun to drill in the mountains all day long.

After days of high temperatures, the vines and weeds with superficial roots have long been dried up, and their feet rustle when they step on them.

Many of the tall trees had long since died, and although they still stood in place, the axe fell down at the slightest touch of the skin, and it was not so difficult to cut down.

The three women don't have much strength, but after one night, it can be regarded as a small gain.

Sweat ran down Ye Qian's forehead like rain.

"Qiaoqiao, is your news accurate, where does the weather look like it's going to get cold." Ye Qian wiped her sweat with the towel hanging around her neck, "Besides, if it's cold, it's cold, and if you wear more, it's okay." ”

Lin Wanqiao remembered the cold that seemed to be able to penetrate the bones in her previous life, and the frostbite that covered her hands and feet, scabbed and scratched, rotten and began to scab again, that itch.

Just thinking about it, her fingers seemed to itch, and she unconsciously grasped it.

"Listen to me, and you'll know when the time comes."

It's better to experience than to say more.

"Alas, but I do this, and when the time comes, it will be cheaper for them......"

Yang Yujun was used to doing farm work when he was young, and his hands and feet were more nimble than Lin Wanqiao's two young people.

She also heard about Ye Qian's family, and she was very sympathetic in her heart.

"Sissi, don't think so much about it first, your father should come back from vacation in two days, there will be a way." Yang Yujun comforted.

"Hmm."

The three of them were busy for three or four days in a row.

During this period, Lin Wanqiao proposed several times to let Yang Yujun rest at home, and she and Ye Qian were enough. Yang Yujun is still unwilling, she has been holding back at home for more than half a year, and she finally came out to move her muscles and bones, how can she be willing to go back and stay again.

The three of them used local materials to build a simple earthen kiln out of clay. Some large pieces of wood are placed at the bottom of the kiln to facilitate the entry of air from the bottom during firing.

In the middle of the kiln, some wood is placed that has not been burned through, and this is where the first burning starts.

They placed the chopped firewood radially from large to small, with the highest temperature in the middle, and enlarged the wood until the kiln was completely filled. Then use a long pole to reach through the ventilation hole and light the fire.

Finally, fill all the gaps at the bottom of the kiln with soil, plug in the chimney, and finish the work.

They left to make sure they didn't set the mountain on fire.

After 24 hours, the kiln was opened for inspection.

The first time they tried to make homemade charcoal, Lin Wanqiao and the others were already mentally prepared to fail.

I didn't expect it to be okay.

Although there are some impurities and fragmentation, it is generally successful and usable.

All the charcoal was carried back to Lin Wanqiao's house in a basket.

On the fifth day, Ye's father and Liu Jian'an both returned.

Now that the head of the Ye family is back, Lin Wanqiao also put down her work as a 'milk baby' with peace of mind, and went back to work in the hospital after repeatedly telling Ye Qian a few words.

As soon as she arrived at the department, she saw a group of colleagues gathered around, muttering that she didn't know what to say.

"Ah, Jojo, are you back?" Someone has sharp eyes.

Lin Wanqiao walked over and joined them.

"What are you talking about, God mysterious?"

Someone sighed, with a sad face: "Alas, I heard that the above means that our hospital is already too heavy and it is difficult to maintain its operation, and I am afraid that we will have to lay off staff." ”

Downsizing?

"It is said that more than half of it will be cut, leaving only a small number of elite backbones to maintain the most basic operations."

The hospital has been short of medical treatment for a long time, and the generator has been stopped for more than half a month because of the lack of timely supply of diesel, and the ICU wards are empty.

Anyway, patients often can't get effective treatment when they come, and over time, fewer people come to the hospital for medical treatment, so they can still see patients in the TCM department, and other departments have long been available.

Layoffs are also understandable.

It's just that it makes these people sad.

In the hospital, they can still mix some supplies, and they can subsidize some oil and water for their families, but if they leave the hospital, what will they do?

No wonder Lin Wanqiao felt a depression as soon as she came in.

"Don't worry too much, it's not a sure thing yet." Lin Wanqiao didn't know what to say, so she could only comfort dryly.

"Dr. Lin, of course you don't have to worry. You big guy doesn't lack anything, how can you be the same as us ordinary people who can only live on this meager salary. Someone sourly spoke.

They still think that she is the second generation to experience life, and she is really going to lay off employees, and with her relationship, she will not be able to take her turn.

Although her professional skills and progress are there for all to see.

Usually when there is no entanglement of interests, everyone can giggle and even call brothers and sisters, and now they have to compete for the remaining places, either you die or I live, and it is normal to say a few sour words.

Lin Wanqiao was noncommittal.

People are not wrong.

Lin Wanqiao didn't speak, and the atmosphere suddenly fell into embarrassment.

The man seemed to realize that he had gone too far, but his strong pride kept him from apologizing.

"Xiaolin, come with me." At the door, Director Qi suddenly appeared.

"Okay."

Lin Wanqiao quickly stood up and left this embarrassing place of right and wrong.

Director Qi's office.

Lin Wanqiao moved a small bench and sat opposite Director Qi.

"Xiaolin, you've been here for more than three months, haven't you?"

"Yes."

Director Qi opened the skylight and said brightly: "You must have heard the news that the hospital is going to lay off staff, you ...... Any thoughts? ”

Lin Wanqiao's hard work and talent during this period are obvious to all.

He admits that he was a little disgusted with this kind of relationship at first, but after a long period of contact, he became more and more pleasantly surprised. But he knew that Lin Wanqiao's ambition was not to be proficient, and it was enough for her to get started.

Lin Wanqiao thought twice.

The colleague just now was right, she is different from them, so there is no need for her to steal other people's jobs.

"I have learned a lot here in the past few months, I am very happy to be able to meet Director Qi and a group of lovely and respectable colleagues, I am not a medical major, and staying will only delay the hospital, this layoff, I voluntarily left."
