Surprise! The rough husband is the hidden boss of the period literature

Chapter 7 I Can't Accept This Money

"No, doctor, that's not what I meant. Can you please talk to me for a moment?" the mother of the woman in labor asked anxiously.

The husband of the woman in labor was watching over her and his eyes were full of gratitude towards Xu Qinghuan.

Xu Qinghuan was dragged to the end of the corridor by the mother of the pregnant woman. She looked around to see if there was anyone around and stuffed a thick red envelope into Xu Qinghuan's hand. "Comrade, this is a little gift from us!"

The largest denomination of banknotes these days is ten yuan, commonly known as the Great Unity.

Xu Qinghuan squeezed it and found it was about two hundred yuan, almost half a year's salary for an average worker. She pushed it away and said, "Sorry, Auntie, I can't take it!"

She never accepts money from patients. When she puts on her white coat, saving lives and healing the wounded is her mission. She loves money, but will never tarnish her profession.

Even at this time, she was so poor that she only had 27 cents on her.

The mother insisted on giving it to Xu Qinghuan no matter what, but she sullenly refused. Later, someone else showed up, and the mother didn't dare insist any longer. She returned to the ward, and just then, the woman woke up and asked, "Mom, have you thanked that benefactor?"

In the delivery room, the woman was given partial anesthesia. She knew that the attending doctor was not good enough and couldn't perform the gestures for a long time. She was so scared that she almost lost her soul and thought she would not be able to get off the operating table.

It was the young doctor who performed the operation on her. For some reason, when the scalpel was in the young doctor's hand, she felt stable.

"She refused to accept the surgery. She said she wouldn't accept the surgery no matter what. She said she's not a doctor. If she wasn't a doctor, how could she have performed the surgery on you? If it weren't for her, our little baby wouldn't have been so safe and sound." The mother of the woman in labor felt very sorry and had even more respect for Xu Qinghuan.

"I don't know how we can help her."

The woman's husband stood up and said, "I'll go ask Uncle Wu and bring some gifts to thank her later."

"That's okay too!"

After finishing the work, Xu Qinghuan went to find Lin Xialan. She worked at the supply and marketing cooperative near her home. It was her lunch break time. She took her clothes and said, "Come on, I'll treat you to dinner at the state-owned restaurant."

"so good?"

Xu Qinghuan didn't hesitate, and the two of them headed towards the state-owned restaurant. "You know, I learned a trick from an old doctor in our hospital. Today, I happened to see a pregnant woman who was bleeding heavily, and I helped her. The hospital director took a fancy to me, and he insisted on keeping me working there, but I declined."

Lin Xialan was astonished. "Of course, Huanzi, you have this ability. This is a good thing!"

She knew that Xu Qinghuan had studied with an old doctor before and liked the profession of doctor very much. She didn't expect that his level was so high.

"It's a good thing, but I can't afford it right now." Xu Qinghuan told her this for two reasons. "I gave him your contact information. After I go to the countryside, I will write to you. If he wants to contact you, can you help pass it on to him?"

"Okay, that's no problem. Huanzi, think about it again. Being a doctor in a hospital is so great!"

Xu Qinghuan didn't tell her that he would be promoted to level five as soon as he started working, so there was no need to say these words, otherwise Xia Lan would feel even more regretful and sad.

"Lanlan, has your sister-in-law not found a job yet?" Xu Qinghuan asked.

"No, no, Huanhuan, my sister-in-law knows nothing about medicine. She is just an ordinary high school graduate and doesn't have any skills. You can't give her your doctor's position for free." Lin Xialan said.

"No, the hospital gave me a position as an intern nurse. As long as I pass the assessment in the future, I can become a full-time nurse." Xu Qinghuan said, "If your sister-in-law is willing, I can sell the position to her."

Back then, Lin's mother found a wife for her eldest brother. She was a good match for him and had a job, working as a waitress in a state-owned restaurant. But her eldest brother insisted on marrying his true love, his eldest sister-in-law.

Her sister-in-law still has a rural household registration, not a commercial grain household registration, and does not have a grain and oil book.

After she got married, the whole family saved money to buy her expensive food.

In the book, Lin Xialan's eldest sister-in-law, suffering from long-term depression, hanged herself in the woods of the family compound six months later. She left behind a suicide note, saying that everyone in the family had treated her well and never disdained her, but that she simply didn't want to be a burden to them anymore. However, her family refused to accept this account and reported the Lin family for abusing their daughter-in-law. Lin's father and mother were investigated. Although neighbors testified against the allegations, the outcry was so overwhelming that Lin's father was forced to resign as factory director, and Lin's mother was no longer director of the Youth Educated Office.

Her eldest brother had his legs broken by several of his brothers-in-law, leaving him disabled for life and losing his job.

Lin Xialan was pleasantly surprised. "Are you serious?"

"Well, if you need it, I'll keep it for you." Xu Qinghuan didn't hide it from his friends, "You know my situation. My mother won't give me a penny, and my second uncle and his family are the same. I'm going to the countryside, so I must have some money on hand to prepare some supplies and for future emergencies."

"I know, I know, Huanhuan, I should thank you. Don't worry, I will definitely help you get some more money."

Now, let alone jobs, even information about jobs can be sold for a few dollars. Xu Qinghuan told her the news as soon as possible and did not put it up for bidding, which was already a great help.

After Lin Xialan returned home, she told her mother about this. "Mom, you must give me more money. Oh, and the tickets. Huanhuan has really helped our family."

It's not just a matter of job. Only with a job can her sister-in-law be transferred to a commercial grain household registration.

"Do I need you to tell me that?" Mother Lin rolled her eyes at Lin Xialan. She also liked Xu Qinghuan very much.

Sure enough, when the family came back in the evening, they were all very happy to hear the news. Lin Xialan's sister-in-law secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was so emotional that her eyes were wet.

No matter how deep the true love is, it cannot withstand the long-term daily life of firewood, rice, oil and salt. She has been married to the Lin family for three years, and her son is two years old. She has no job, no confidence, and can't even stand up straight.

Even though she did all the housework every day, when it came to mealtime, the better the food, the more she couldn't eat it.

If she had the chance to do it again, she didn't know if she would have the courage to stick to her original choice.

Fortunately, fate took a turn for the better.

When Xu Qinghuan returned home, Xu Manman had already returned. Her head was wrapped in a white gauze, and her charming face was pale. Seeing Xu Qinghuan push the door open, she smiled weakly, "Sister, where have you been? Why are you back so late?"

Jiang Chengxu sat on the bed with his back to the door. He quickly stood up and turned around. "Qinghuan, you're back?"

He picked up his coat and said to Xu Manman, "Have a good rest. I'll come see you tomorrow."

Xu Manman said "hmm", closed her eyes, and looked lonely.

Xu Qinghuan couldn't bear to watch.

Jiang Chengxu only looked at her with his eyes, "Qinghuan, I have something to tell you, can we go outside and talk?"

Xu Qinghuan thought about it, nodded, and turned into the living room.

Jiang Chengxu closed the door and hesitated for a moment, "Qinghuan, do you want to eat? I'll treat you to a meal outside."

"No need, just say whatever you want to say!"

"Then let's talk downstairs?" Jiang Chengxu's eyes were pleading. Xu Qinghuan had no choice but to nod, got up, and followed him out the door.

A sound of "Ouch" came from the room, and Xu Manman shouted, "Brother Chengxu, wuwuwu, my head hurts!"

Jiang Chengxu stood at the door, frowning and looking towards the room. Xu Qinghuan clearly saw the struggle in his eyes, with some impatience.

"I'll wait for you downstairs!" Xu Qinghuan suddenly felt bored and squeezed past him.
