Marrying a childless superior, she became pregnant and lived a carefree life in the 1970s.

Chapter 128 Onboarding
Gu Jianing's reputation had already spread throughout the military hospital when she was in training courses.

Of course, she attracted attention not only because of her excellent medical skills, but also because of her beauty and because she was the wife of Sheng Zexi, that sharp-tongued, handsome devil.

The two young male doctors in the Traditional Chinese Medicine department are both unmarried, but they have heard rumors about Gu Jianing.

They never expected that Old Chen would actually request such a person to come to their deserted TCM department.

They were just discussing how today was Gu Jianing's first day at work, and they wondered what it would be like. They heard that someone described her as stunningly beautiful upon their first meeting.

I don't know if it's true or not.

And now, looking at the girl in front of him, as beautiful as a peach blossom, with eyebrows like distant mountains, sparkling eyes, and fair skin.

They exchanged a glance, both thinking to themselves: "Truly astonishingly beautiful."

It's a pity...

It's a pity she's already married, and to Sheng Zexi, that sharp-tongued, handsome devil. Otherwise, they would have tried to win her over.

After all, what man wouldn't want to marry a capable and beautiful wife?

"Is this Gu Jianing, Dr. Gu?" Zhou Chiyuan, one of the young male doctors, stood up and asked in a friendly manner.

"Yes, I am Gu Jianing."

"I had heard that Dr. Gu had been assigned to our department. Dr. Gu is so talented, it's wonderful that he came to our TCM department."

"Dr. Gu, let me take you to complete the onboarding procedures, and while we're at it, let me tell you about our Traditional Chinese Medicine department."

"Okay, I'll bother you then."

As she was introduced, Gu Jianing learned that this was a Traditional Chinese Medicine department, and that it housed two of only three doctors besides herself.

The first person to speak to her was Dr. Zhou Chiyuan, and the other was Lu Jin.

At this moment, it was Zhou Chiyuan who took Gu Jianing to complete the onboarding procedures.

"Dr. Zhou, does that mean our Traditional Chinese Medicine department only has four doctors?" Gu Jianing asked.

That seems a bit too little.

Zhou Chiyuan understood what Gu Jianing meant, nodded, and explained, "In the military hospital, the three most popular departments with the most doctors are surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, and pediatrics."

"As for our Traditional Chinese Medicine department, we're considered to be at the bottom."

Gu Jianing thought for a moment and quickly understood the reason.

After all, in this era, some people regard traditional Chinese medicine as feudal superstition. Furthermore, traditional Chinese medicine treatment is more troublesome, requiring the decoction to be prepared and taken for several days, while Western medicine only requires a few small pills.

This is also why most people now favor Western medicine.

But Gu Jianing believes that the inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine must not be interrupted.

Traditional Chinese medicine is no worse than Western medicine; in fact, there are some ailments that Western medicine cannot treat, but traditional Chinese medicine can.

Moreover, traditional Chinese medicine is a national tradition, and we must not forget our traditions.

In the Divine Doctor Space, most of the teachers who gave Gu Jianing lessons were renowned Chinese and foreign doctors from ancient and modern times.

Their medical skills were so miraculous, turning the mundane into the extraordinary, that Gu Jianing was left in awe.

Gu Jianing thought that if possible, she wanted to carry forward and pass on this traditional Chinese medicine tradition and essence.

So even though Zhou Chiyuan said that the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine was not very popular and was quite deserted in the military hospital, with few people willing to come for treatment, Gu Jianing still did not regret being assigned here. "Dr. Gu, this is your office."

Because there aren't many doctors in the TCM department, and the space is relatively spacious, each doctor can be assigned an independent office. Although it's not very big, it's still a personal space.

Unlike departments such as surgery and obstetrics and gynecology, where several doctors share an office.

"Thank you, Dr. Zhou."

"You are welcome."

Gu Jianing glanced at the office, which seemed to have been tidied up in advance. Although it wasn't large, it was very simple and clean.

Zhou Chiyuan: Of course it's clean. Old Chen Qian repeatedly told me and Lao Lu to make sure the office was cleaned thoroughly.

"By the way, Dr. Zhou, you just said that there are four doctors in our TCM department, including myself. What about the other one..." Gu Jianing didn't see anyone else.

"The other one is Old Chen."

"Old Chen?" Not Dr. Chen, but Old Chen? This isn't a title you can just call someone by. Moreover, Gu Jianing could see the respect and admiration in Dr. Zhou's eyes for this Old Chen.

"Dr. Gu, do you know how you ended up in our Traditional Chinese Medicine department?"

Ok?
"I was assigned here."

Seeing Gu Jianing's expression, Zhou Chiyuan knew she was unaware of the situation. He hesitated for a moment before asking, "What do you think about her coming to our TCM department?"

"I think it's great, I really like it," Gu Jianing answered truthfully.

Feeling that Gu Jianing wasn't lying, Zhou Chiyuan breathed a sigh of relief and then whispered, "Actually, Dean Shu originally planned to assign you to surgery or obstetrics and gynecology. The doctors in those two departments had always hoped you would go there, but it was Elder Chen who stepped in and got you to come."

Gu Jianing blinked, somewhat bewildered.

She shouldn't know this old man Chen, so why did they ask her to go to the TCM department?

"Old Chen is the founder and first president of our military hospital. He is now seventy years old and is also a skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctor. It is said that he once treated a high-ranking leader."

"After retiring, Dr. Chen stayed in our Traditional Chinese Medicine department, where he was on an expert appointment and rarely made house calls."

Everyone speculated that one reason why Old Chen was unwilling to leave was that he wanted to find a good disciple to inherit his medical skills. Unfortunately, Old Chen has not found a suitable one yet.

Zhou Chiyuan sized up Gu Jianing. This Dr. Gu was personally requested by Old Chen, and it was said that she was very talented. Could it be that Old Chen intended to take Dr. Gu as his apprentice?

Zhou Chiyuan wasn't quite sure, so he didn't tell Gu Jianing.

However, Zhou Chiyuan thought that if Dr. Gu could become Elder Chen's disciple, that would be really lucky, and he wouldn't have to worry about the future.

The extent of Chen's connections and the depth of his background go far beyond simply being the founder of a military hospital.

Back then, he and Lu Jin also wanted to become Chen Lao's disciples, but Chen Lao didn't think much of them at all.

"There must be a reason why Old Chen asked you to come to the TCM department. As for what it is, I'm not very clear. Perhaps he hopes that you can lead our TCM department to improve."

Gu Jianing understood. Although she hadn't met Old Chen yet and didn't know why he had transferred her to the TCM department, it wasn't a bad thing for her after all.

Moreover, judging from Dr. Zhou's words, this Old Chen has a powerful background. It would be good to befriend him. In any case, having another powerful connection is not a bad thing.

After explaining things to Gu Jianing and completing the onboarding procedures, Dr. Zhou returned to his office.

Gu Jianing has officially started working at the military hospital and has become Dr. Gu.
