Quick Transmigration: The Leisurely and Sweet Life of a Support

When she opened her eyes again, it was already daylight. She was awakened by the sound of people around her eating dry rations.

The young man diagonally opposite her watched as her pretty face emerged from her thick coat, looking dazed and confused, as if she had just woken up and had forgotten where she was.

A moment later, she sat up straight and looked out the car window, as if wondering where they were.

The young man couldn't help but ask, "We'll be in the capital soon, young lady. Are you hungry? Would you like some pancakes?"

Chongli looked at the pancake he was offered and shook his head with a smile.

"Thank you, but no need, I'm not hungry."

The young man reluctantly withdrew his hand, saying nothing more, but secretly glancing at her. Such a beautiful young girl was truly a rare sight.

The train stopped at Beijing Station. Chongli picked up his suitcase and followed the crowd off the train.

She stood at the station entrance, thought for a moment, and decided to first find a place to stay, then find a job, and finally visit Master Shen.

She obediently took a rickshaw and asked the driver for directions to the Shen family's old house. She then asked about the locations of some hospitals and private hospitals in the capital. Based on these directions, she decided to find a place with rental housing.

The rickshaw driver was a real know-it-all. As soon as he saw that she had come by train, he knew she was looking for work. He asked her if she had a letter of introduction. Without a letter of introduction, the big hospitals wouldn't hire her.

Chongli was extremely frustrated after hearing this.

The driver added that some private clinics might accept her, since these days, there's a shortage of doctors and even nurses. He suggested taking her to the area near the herbal clinics to see if there were any houses for rent.

Chongli thought it was possible; if big hospitals didn't work, he could try small clinics, and if all else failed, he could try his luck at pharmacies or something similar.

The driver, carrying the heavy plow, first passed by clinics, pointing them out to her one by one. Then he ran to another street to look at several pharmacies, and finally pointed out the location of the Shen family's old house to her.

He's such a warm-hearted uncle.

Finally, he dropped her off in a nearby alley and told her that she could rent a house there. He also told her that if she had any difficulties in the future, she could contact him because he worked at the train station every day.

Chongli was very grateful to him. After paying the fare, he picked up his luggage and walked towards the entrance of the alley.

The alley is the old-fashioned kind, with mottled walls, but it's very lively, with many children playing and running around in it.

People in this era are quite enthusiastic. After asking around, many neighbors came over and introduced her to the available rental houses in the surrounding area.

Seeing that she was a pretty girl, he even helped her filter the options, and finally took her to a small building where the landlady was a widowed old lady.

The widowed old lady was called Aunt Chen, and indeed she liked her very much. She rented a room in the house to her and charged her a cheap price. Chong Li never expected it to go so smoothly and that she was able to rent a room on the first day.

While tidying the room, after she had made the bed, a small handkerchief fell out from under the blanket. Inside the handkerchief were several dozen yuan and some food coupons.

Chongli sat on the bed, staring blankly at the handkerchief in his hand. "You brat, now you're left with nothing..."

If he were to run away, he would be even worse than in the original story. He had already exposed Shen Luo completely... He really was leaving nothing behind...

She had originally planned to go out and look for a job, but looking at the handkerchief, she decided to write a letter first to reassure Shen Luo. After all, the money in the handkerchief, plus what she had saved, would keep her from starving even if she didn't find a job immediately.

After writing it down in detail, I carefully wrote down my address as well. I read the 'love letter' in my hand again. I thought it was pretty good. Although it was a bit literary, the meaning was very clear: I missed him terribly.

I believe he will be happy to see his letter.

I put the letter away, went out to eat, mailed the letter, and casually looked around to see if any clinics were hiring.

What she thought would be difficult turned out to be surprisingly smooth. Chongli walked into a relatively large clinic, Yonghe Clinic with three storefronts, and the owner agreed to give her a trial period because she said she was good at surgery.

The boss was a middle-aged man in his forties named Zhou Cheng. He looked very amiable, and judging from the expressions on the faces of the other employees in the clinic, the working environment was quite good.

The trial period salary was 40 yuan. The doctor's salary was significantly higher than the work points earned in the countryside. The barefoot doctor in the countryside earned no more than 20 yuan a month.

But prices in the capital are much higher than in the countryside…

Regardless, Chongli was overjoyed to find a job on his first day; he felt like the luckiest person ever.

Before the sun had set, Chongli bought some gifts and prepared to visit Uncle Shen.

I've taken Shen Luo's spot to return to the city; I might actually be kicked out...

The father and son haven't seen each other for over ten years, and because of me, they can't see each other. It's really...sigh...

Chongli quietly bought a few more items...

I hailed a rickshaw and went straight to Shen Luo's old residence, a courtyard house in Beijing. In this city where land is incredibly valuable, just look at the size of this courtyard house; Shen Luo's family is truly quite wealthy.

The exterior walls looked like they hadn't been repaired long ago. Chong Li picked up the door knocker and knocked...

A moment later, the door opened.

Shen Qingzhu looked at the girl carrying a large pile of things at the door and thought to herself, "So pretty."

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

Chong Li looked at the man in front of her. He was in his thirties or forties and looked to be in average condition, probably not fully recovered yet. However, he had a seven-tenths resemblance to Shen Luo in his features. Once he recovered, he would definitely be a handsome man.

"Uncle, I am Shen Luo's friend. My name is Chong Li."

Upon hearing the name "Chongli," Shen Qingzhu immediately took the things from her hands. This was the girl her son mentioned in every letter; she was the girl her son loved.

Oh no, my son said before that they were already dating and that she was his future daughter-in-law!

Heavy plow was ushered in through the door. "Please come in, please come in!"

Shen Qingzhu led her into the main hall.

Chongli obediently placed the things he had brought on the table, "Hello, Uncle..."

Seeing Shen Qingzhu's enthusiasm, she became nervous instead. "Um... Shen Luo... he gave me his spot to return home, so I... it's not..."

The girl in front of him blushed and tried to explain, but that was the truth. She stood there, slightly embarrassed.

Chongli originally intended to apologize directly, but the other party's attitude towards him was too good.

“It was all that kid’s own decision. I’ll find another way for him. Don’t worry about it. I still have a lot of old friends. Once everything is back to normal, we’ll find an opportunity.” Seeing Chong Li standing awkwardly, Shen Qingzhu smiled. “Sit down, sit down. I… I ate at school and came back. You haven’t eaten yet, have you?”

Chongli blinked, and before she could utter the lie that she had already eaten, Shen Qingzhu had already gotten up and brought her some pastries.

"My neighbor's third aunt just brought over some pastries, why don't you try them?"

Chongli didn't refuse; she was truly hungry...
