Chapter 81 Why do you want to accept me as your apprentice?

Seeing that she was about to successfully drive Su Mei away, Zhao Ying was stunned. She looked at Qin Zhengting in surprise for several times before asking in shock:

"Doctor Qin, did I make a mistake? She is Su Mei. Why would you accept someone like her as your apprentice?"

"How did you get it wrong?" Aunt Wang, who had just finished dressing in a hurry after taking a shower, came over and spoke up for Su Mei:

"It is well known that Su Mei is knowledgeable in medicine. If Doctor Qin doesn't accept her as his apprentice, will he accept you?"

"But she has bad morals," Zhao Ying said.

Aunt Wang rolled her eyes at Zhao Ying and said, "You are a good person. You are a good person. Why doesn't Political Commissar Lu allow you to be a teacher?"

"I..." When it comes to the teacher, Zhao Ying is speechless.

Seeing Zhao Ying shut up, Aunt Wang looked at Qin Zhengting with a smile and asked, "Doctor Qin, are you really planning to take Su Mei as your apprentice?"

"I do have this plan." Qin Zhengting nodded. He turned his head to look at Su Mei and said, "I just don't know what Su Mei thinks?"

Huh? Su Mei was confused, totally confused. What was Qin Zhengting doing?

For no apparent reason, he suddenly came to her and said he wanted to take her in as his disciple.

The most shocked person in the audience was Huo Jianguo.

Last night he had already guessed what the outcome would be for Su Mei. In order to find a place for Su Mei to go, he spent half the night at the military clinic negotiating with Qin Zhengting, wanting Qin Zhengting to take Su Mei in, but Qin Zhengting refused.

He had already given up on this matter, but he didn't expect Qin Zhengting to come to him suddenly, and he didn't say that he wanted to take Su Mei in, but directly proposed to take Su Mei as his disciple.

Although Qin Zhengting only opened a small clinic in the military area, he was a well-known medical expert in the medical community, and many people cried and begged to become his disciples.

Before coming to the military district, Qin Zhengting worked as a doctor in Kyoto. Because he did not want to be forced to accept disciples, he voluntarily was demoted to this poor place on the border.

In recent years, he has been complaining that he is the only doctor in the entire military region and is overwhelmed, but at the same time he is unwilling to accept anyone as his apprentice.

In the past, he even announced to the public that he had no plans to accept any disciples.

So when Huo Jianguo went to find Qin Zhengting, he didn't even mention a word about becoming his disciple. He just asked Qin Zhengting if he could keep Su Mei to help him. However, Qin Zhengting sternly rejected his request without mercy.

Unexpectedly, just one day later, the old man changed his mind again.

Huo Jianguo didn't know what Qin Zhengting was up to.

But he knew very well that for Su Mei, becoming Qin Zhengting's disciple would definitely be beneficial and not harmful.

After all, given Qin Zhengting's status, as long as one becomes his disciple, it would be like having one foot halfway into the highest hall of medicine.

Seeing that Su Mei remained silent, Huo Jianguo could not help but lean over and whisper in Su Mei's ear:

"Why don't you go see the master?"

Master? Su Mei pursed her lips and glanced at Qin Zhengting.

"Can I ask why you want to accept me as your apprentice?" There is no free lunch in the world. Some questions need to be asked clearly. She doesn't want to have a master without knowing the reason.

Everyone around was stunned, and many people felt that Su Mei did not know what was good for her.

Although many people do not know Qin Zhengting's background, they still believe that it is a blessing for Su Mei to have Qin Zhengting as her teacher.

"What is Su Mei doing? The food is already in her mouth, but she won't eat it?"

"She forgot her last name after seeing patients for a few days. Doctor Qin wanted to take her in as his apprentice, but she asked why!"

"Well, if she offends Doctor Qin, she will have to go back to her hometown, right?"

"A good hand of cards, but Su Mei played it to pieces."

"You can't say that. Su Mei is really amazing. Half a month ago, everyone wanted to kill her, but half a month later, she turned the situation around. She is really a talent!"

"Something!"

.......

The onlookers were talking about it, as if since Doctor Qin was willing to accept Su Mei, she should be grateful and agree, instead of asking why in an ignorant manner!

Su Mei ignored these voices. She looked at Qin Zhengting intently, wanting to hear his answer.

Qin Zhengting didn't expect Su Mei to ask him why. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

Compared to those who blindly wanted to become his disciples just because of his reputation, Qin Zhengting liked Su Mei's character more. He said to Su Mei:

"Some things are hard to say in front of others. Can you invite me into the house to talk?"

"Of course." Su Mei nodded.

In fact, she felt very embarrassed when she heard someone say they wanted to go inside to talk. If someone was talking in someone's house, they would be taken to the bedroom, but there was no other place to sit in this house.

But there was no other way. The other rooms were either dirty or cold. Su Mei could only take Qin Zhengting to the sofa at the bedroom door and sit down.

Seeing Su Mei bringing Qin Zhengting into the house, Zhao Ying became extremely anxious. Her only chance of turning the situation around was to drive Su Mei away.

If Su Mei became Qin Zhengting's apprentice and went to the military clinic to work as a doctor, she would forever lose the opportunity to drive Su Mei away.

She couldn't let this happen, so she ran to her own yard in anger.

Aunt Wang had been watching Zhao Ying's movements. When she saw Zhao Ying's gloomy eyes, she immediately guessed that Zhao Ying must have had some bad ideas again, so she immediately stepped forward and followed him out.

Because she was in a hurry, Zhao Ying did not notice that Aunt Wang was following her, and she ran all the way back to the yard.

Bai Riyinglan had already been taken to the military region by her father Chu Zhonghua, so there was no outsider in Zhao Ying's house at this time, only her husband Liang Youwei was at home.

Arriving at his own yard, Zhao Ying shouted to Liang Youwei:

"Youwei, hurry up and come out. Go to the military area now and call Yinglan's mother!"

"What's wrong with you so late at night?" Liang Youwei had been treating Zhao Ying badly ever since he lost face and his job at the Military Family Courtyard.

Under normal circumstances, Zhao Ying would definitely be very dissatisfied with Liang Youwei's attitude, but at this moment she did not have time to argue with Liang Youwei:

"You should go when I tell you to. The result of Su Mei's case has come out. The Youth League Committee has decided to expel Su Mei from the compound."

"You mean, you want me to call Yinglan's mother to tell her the good news?" Liang Youwei knew why Zhao Ying had been targeting Su Mei, and he was immediately delighted:

"Then there's no need to be so anxious. We can just talk about it tomorrow, okay?"

"It will be too late tomorrow. Su Mei's expulsion was already a foregone conclusion, but who knew that Cheng Yaojin would show up along the way." Zhao Ying said bitterly:

"Qin Zhengting, a doctor from the military clinic, suddenly came over and said he wanted to take Su Mei as his apprentice. If Su Mei became his apprentice, she would never leave."

"Doctor Qin? How is that possible? This Doctor Qin is not an ordinary doctor. He came from Kyoto and has a very complicated background.

I heard that many children of high-ranking officials wanted to become his disciples. In order to avoid those people, he voluntarily came here to work as a military doctor, and he worked there for more than ten years.

He didn't even accept Gao Gan's son, so how could he accept Su Mei? That must be a lie, right?" Liang Youwei knew some inside information about Qin Zhengting's identity, so he didn't believe what Zhao Ying said.

Zhao Ying couldn't help but glared at Liang Youwei fiercely: "I heard it with my own ears, how could it be false?"

"Then the matter is over. What's the point of calling Yinglan's mother at this time?" Liang Youwei frowned and looked at Zhao Ying, not understanding what Zhao Ying was thinking.

"Of course it works." Zhao Ying's eyes lit up with a crazy look:

"Su Mei has signed the materials of the Youth League Committee. Although Huo Jianguo paid for her to steal vegetables, the Youth League Committee did not hold her accountable.

But it is a fact that she stole, and it cannot be offset by the compensation she made. We can’t do anything to Su Mei, but do you think Yinglan’s mother will be unable to send Su Mei to jail?”

"How can you be sure that Yinglan's mother would do this?"

"If she wants Huo Jianguo to be her son-in-law, she will definitely do it." Zhao Ying said with a firm look:

"There is nothing wrong with this matter. There is nothing she can't do. She just didn't follow the usual practice of the compound and let things go according to the normal procedures.

Well, if I tell you to make the call, just make it now. If it’s done, you will be transferred out of this damn place. Don’t you want to be transferred?

If it weren't for you, would I do these thankless tasks every day? Why don't you just go and fight?"

"Can't we fight tomorrow? It's late at night, aren't you afraid that I'll be eaten by wolves on the way?" Liang Youwei's tone was full of disrespect.

Zhao Ying immediately became unhappy:

"We have to race against time on matters like this. Once Su Mei's handling results are reported tomorrow, Yinglan's mother will be able to immediately find a reason to continue to hold Su Mei accountable.

If she doesn't arrange this matter tonight, she won't be able to intervene when the dust settles tomorrow, so we have to fight now. Go and borrow a car from your uncle and drive to the military area. There's nothing to be afraid of."

"Okay, okay, I'll go." Liang Youwei was still reluctant, but considering his own future, he obediently started to put on his clothes.

You have to go to the military area to make a phone call. The family compound doesn’t have its own phone.

.......

Outside the yard, Aunt Wang, who had listened to every word of the conversation between Zhao Ying and Liang Youwei, broke out in a cold sweat.

In fact, she once had an absurd guess. She knew that Yinglan and Zhao Ying had a good relationship, so she guessed that Zhao Ying might have followed Yinglan's instructions and drove Su Mei away.

But Aunt Wang had also met Yinglan, and she thought Yinglan was so great, so she automatically rejected this idea.

What she never expected was that Yinglan was indeed behind this incident, but it was not done by Yinglan herself, but by Yinglan's mother.

It turns out that Su Mei also said that she always felt that Zhao Ying was targeting her deliberately.

Now Aunt Wang knows that Su Mei's intuition is correct. Zhao Ying is indeed deliberately targeting her... She must quickly tell Huo Jianguo and Su Mei about this and let them think of a solution.

Thinking of this, Aunt Wang quickly turned around and walked quickly towards the yard where Huo Jianguo and Su Mei lived.
