BXBX NOVEL Chapter 304 - 304 Plan
Therefore, for so many years, no matter how difficult things were, they tried their best to dote on this little girl.
Perhaps it was because they doted on her too much that her personality became like this.
“Brother Luo did send her back, but can Brother Luo be blamed for this? When they brewed medicine, they made a huge mistake. Not only did they refuse to admit their mistake, but they also wanted to hide it!
What were they dealing with?
That was medicine!
It was used to save lives!
Even the slightest mistake could cost someone their life!
Besides, they paid them a lot even after sending them back! What else do you want from Mrs. Liu? With her noble status, it’s already good enough that she’s being so considerate!
If it was the wife of General Gao, would you guys dare to be so impudent?
Sister, don’t blame me for speaking harshly. You just think that Mrs. Liu is kind and easy to bully!
But as you saw today, is Mrs. Liu that easy to bully?”
As Du Wu lectured Madam Du along the way, Madam Du had no way to retort him.
While Du Wu was teaching Madam Du a lesson, Doctor Luo entered the residence and knelt in front of Lin Suisui to apologize.
“I know things are difficult for you, so I thought that after the shop opens in the future, you’ll only be responsible for treating illnesses and saving people. The rest will be handled by Mr. Gu and Yuan Niang.
This way, we can avoid many troubles and disputes. What do you think, Doctor Luo?”
As Lin Suisui asked Bai Guo to help Doctor Luo up, she explained to Doctor Luo what she had previously decided on.
“Thank you.” When Doctor Luo heard this, he was obviously relieved. Then, he lowered his head in shame and said in a low voice, “I know, but I can’t bring myself to be ruthless to them.”
“I understand. If you were willing to ignore past favors so easily, we wouldn’t have had the chance to sit here and talk today.”
Lin Suisui smiled as she gestured for Doctor Luo to take a seat. “That’s why I’m thinking that when the shop opens in the future, Doctor Luo, it’s best if you avoid these sorts of things.”
As she spoke, Bai Guo had already handed the booklet to Doctor Luo.
“These…” After Doctor Luo picked up one of the books and read two pages, his expression changed completely. He looked at Lin Suisui in shock and disbelief as he shouted, “How dare they!”
“In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I’ve already arranged for Yuan Niang to add the children we chose previously to the list this time. In the next two days, I’ll get Yuan Niang to send these children to you, Doctor Luo. You don’t have to worry so much. You just have to teach them the basics of brewing medicine and identifying herbs. When the time comes, we’ll recruit whoever has good results.”
Because Lin Suisui had known long ago, she wasn’t as shocked as Doctor Luo. She didn’t plan to show these things to Doctor Luo, but what happened today made her change her mind.
“I just think that kindness should only be given to the right people. Some people accept kindness with gratitude, but some people won’t and your kindness will only deepen their greed and willfulness.”
“You’re right. I was too short-sighted.” Doctor Luo put the booklet back in his hand dejectedly and shook his head with a bitter smile. “I actually didn’t want to hire these children directly.
My plan was similar to yours. I also thought that if they could complete the test, everyone would be fine, but if they couldn’t, I definitely wouldn’t accept them.
“This is a medical center, where the apprentices we accept will treat illnesses and save people in the future, so we can’t be careless at all.”
“By the way, Doctor Luo, among the people who accompanied Madam Du here today, there was a woman who looks younger than Madam Du and she was wearing a short dark red jacket. Do you know her?”
After Lin Suisui took a sip of tea, she thought of something, so she looked up at Doctor Luo and asked.
“I do. She’s Madam Wen. Her brother and husband died in the siege two years ago. In the past two years, she’s been raising her son and daughter all alone. She runs a tea stall in the east of the city and relies on selling herbal tea and snacks to survive.”
Doctor Luo knew a little about the situation of some military families around Cloud Mountain City.
He knew even more about the families of the soldiers in the Huben Battalion.
“Among the women who came with Madam Du today, only she didn’t push the blame to Madam Du. Only she spoke up for Madam Du when everyone was blaming Madam Du.”
Lin Suisui gestured to Bai Guo to take out a small bag of silver and sent it to Doctor Luo before continuing, “I’ve thought about it. There are definitely more than one or two families in Cloud Mountain City that have lost their pillar of support.
Their relatives have sacrificed their lives for the country, so we naturally can’t mistreat them!
However, even if we want to help, we have the help those who have the highest chance of becoming self-reliant first!
“Now, the military families in Cloud Mountain City are a motley crowd, so it’s not a good idea to fulfill all their requests. Therefore, we have to think of a way to help those kind people first!
As for those who want to enjoy life by freeloading off their ancestor’s merits, ignore them!”
Lu Ze had previously told her that every soldier who died in the north would be given a certain amount of compensation by the Imperial Court. This compensation not only included silver, but also tax relief.
She wasn’t a saint, so there was a limit to what she could do.
Therefore, even if she felt goodwill towards these women from military families, she wasn’t a fool. Instead of saving ungrateful people, she might as well save this money to exchange for herbs!
Seeing Doctor Luo look at the silver with a puzzled expression, Lin Suisui told him her plan. “This is 20 taels of silver. I’ll have to trouble you to make a trip to look for Madam Wen. Our medical center is about to open, so we have to make arrangements for the daily meals.
“If Madam Wen is willing, let her handle this matter first! If she agrees, this silver will be the deposit. Let her send food and soup to our medical center every day according to the number of people. Once a month, I’ll pay her an additional five taels of silver!”
