The truck stopped at the gate of Beijing Medical College, and eight members of the medical team jumped out of the truck.

After half a month of living in the countryside, everyone has a tan.Wang Jianxin looked at everyone one by one and thought to himself, one white mask covers three ugly ones. It is really hard for these two girls to be hired as they are now, but everyone is in good spirits, their eyes are bright, and their backs are straight. They are completely different from when they went there.

The news comes back faster than they can.

The achievements of the medical team in Shuangqiao Commune—resection of most of the stomach, appendectomy with acupuncture, rescue of organophosphorus pesticide poisoning, training of more than 30 barefoot doctors, compilation of 200 mimeographed manuals, and reconstruction of two water sources—had already been reported to the school through a phone call from Dean Zhao Deming.

Wang Jianxin's name spread from the Student Affairs Office to the School Revolutionary Committee, and then from the School Revolutionary Committee to higher levels.Along the way, the classmates they met all paid attention to them, some whispered, "This is the medical team going to Shuangqiao", and some gave them a thumbs up.

As soon as we entered the school gate, the instructor was already waiting downstairs.He was wearing a military uniform, his back straight, standing on the steps, waving to them from a distance.

"Wang Jianxin." The instructor walked over quickly, held Wang Jianxin's hand, looked up and down, and shook it vigorously, "Well done, you did a good job."

Eight members of the medical team stood in a row, and the instructor shook hands one by one.When I met Zhou Xiaomei and Chen Xiuying, I said a few more words: "Lesbians went to the countryside for half a month. Thank you for your hard work."

Zhou Xiaomei's eyes turned red and she almost shed tears.Chen Xiuying pursed her lips and shook her head vigorously, saying it was not hard or hard.

Liu Xiaodong whispered from the side: "Instructor, we gay men are also working hard."

The instructor glanced at him: "You have worked hard too."

Everyone laughed.

That afternoon, Wang Jianxin was called to the student affairs office.

The office is on the first floor of the teaching building. The words "Student Affairs Office" are posted on the glass on the door. They are written in red paint and are a bit faded.Director Chen was sitting behind the desk. He was in his fifties, with gray hair and a pair of black-rimmed glasses. When he saw Wang Jianxin coming in, he stood up, shook hands with him, took out a document from the drawer and handed it to him.

The document's header is "Beijing Medical College Revolutionary Committee" in large red characters, with a red official seal stamped below.The main content is: In recognition of Comrade Wang Jianxin's outstanding performance in opening the school in Shuangqiao Commune, it was decided to give third-class merit to the individual recorder, and to announce the commendation and call on all the workers, peasants and soldiers in the hospital to learn from him.

Wang Jianxin closed the document and asked, "Director Chen, where are the other team members?"

Director Chen said: "Don't worry, they all have it. They are a collective third-class meritorious service."

Hearing this, Wang Jianxin felt relieved.No matter what, we are comrades who share weal and woe. If we make meritorious deeds alone and no one else does, what does that count?Third-class collective merit, he was satisfied with this arrangement.

After coming out of the office, Li Jianguo was waiting at the door, leaning against the wall, rolling a cigarette in his hand but not lighting it.

"How is it?" Li Jianguo asked.

"Not bad, just a few words of praise." Wang Jianxin stuffed the document into his pocket and did not tell him about his meritorious service for the time being.

Li Jianguo glanced at him, put the cigarette to his ear without asking any more questions, and followed him back.Neither of them spoke a word along the way, but Li Jianguo walked a little heavier than usual, wondering if he felt disappointed.

The next day, the school revolutionary committee held a commendation meeting in the courtyard auditorium.

The auditorium can seat hundreds of people, and is where movies and conferences are usually held.Many people came today, including school leaders, military representatives, directors of revolutionary committees of various departments, and representatives of workers, peasants, and soldiers.The stage was covered with red cloth, and there were several tables with microphones on the tables.The audience was completely dark and the seats were full.

At the meeting, the director of the Revolutionary Committee read out the commendation decision.His voice came through the loudspeaker, buzzing, but every word was audible.

"The medical team was rated as an advanced collective in running a school with open doors. Comrade Wang Jianxin received third-class merit as an individual, and the remaining seven received third-class merit as a collective. Each person was awarded a certificate and a notebook."
