Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife-Chapter 1473: Life is Like a Dream 2

"If you go for a hospital internship, you need a certification from the school, right? Otherwise, which hospital would accept you?" There are rules and procedures no matter which organization you enter.

Feng Qingxue is not worried about not being able to get the certification, but rather contemplating the possibility of returning to the Viva Army.

Lu Jiang is now staying alone at the garrison. If he returns to Baozhou, they could reunite as a family. She had considered asking Lu Jiang’s father and Wang Cuilan to take the children to stay with Lu Jiang at the garrison for a while, but they both disagreed, preferring to stay with her in the Capital.

However, she is majoring in Foreign Languages and has not yet graduated; focusing solely on medical internships is somewhat unjustifiable.

Her major is French, not medicine.

Moreover, she has to take care of the elderly and children at home; it’s not possible to just go to work.

Professor Xie, understanding her family situation, smiled and said, "For you, getting a certification isn’t hard, but you are juggling too much—foreign languages, medicine, painting and calligraphy. I’ve heard you can talk extensively with Old Wu from the History Department, and Old Liu from the Hindi Department almost wishes you’d take his course. So, it’s inevitable that you sometimes drop the ball."

Feng Qingxue felt somewhat embarrassed, "I feel the same way; I know that quality is better than quantity in the military, but I just want to learn as much as I can while I’m young and stick with it, rather than regretting it when I’m old."

Professor Xie pondered for a moment and said, "Learning more is not harmful as long as you can prioritize correctly. You’re graduating next autumn. You’ve spent so much time studying; it won’t make much difference if you spend a little more. Calm down and sort out your theoretical knowledge, then study well under Master Guo. After graduating, you can then immerse yourself in work. You are already a competent doctor; supplementing cultural knowledge is just an intermediate step. Using the term internship for you seems almost insulting. As for foreign languages, you need to study them diligently. Our country’s medical technology is far behind that of foreign countries. If you have the opportunity to go abroad, don’t forget to learn the advanced technologies and bring them back."

Feng Qingxue was flattered, "Teacher, your expectations are too high for me; I’m afraid I might disappoint you. Studying abroad is something I can hardly even think about now."

If there were an opportunity right in front of her, unless it was a strict requirement, she would need to consider her children.

No matter how well she educates herself or how high her achievements, what good is it if she does not educate her children well? Her biggest wish is to take good care of her children while striving to keep up with Lu Jiang’s pace, so that decades later, when people mention General Lu Jiang, they won’t just say his wife was just an unremarkable housewife whose greatest luck was marrying Lu Jiang.

The reason she mentions strict requirements is that soldiers are expected to follow orders, and nobody should disobey.

Professor Xie waved his hand and laughed, "It’s not that I have high expectations; I just think you’re suitable. You see, you are proficient in foreign languages; that’s your advantage. Child, there are too few people like you who are so open-minded, the most important thing is that you are willing to embrace new knowledge; unlike some people who disregard it due to various reasons."

Although these words came from the heart, Professor Xie also knew that going abroad was not easy, so after saying that, he did not bring it up again. Feng Qingxue then took her leave, braving the harsh wind and snow to return home.

Today is New Year’s Day, department stores and various shops have long queues at their doors, with people unafraid of the cold.

Walking with an umbrella, Feng Qingxue always encounters families with small carts or bicycles pulling winter storage vegetables, and some carrying sacks of vegetables on their shoulders.

With hundreds of heads of cabbage, piles of potatoes and radishes sold for one penny per pound, they rely on these during the winter.
