At the entrance of the base supermarket, Bai Shuang encountered another doctor from the Bai family who worked as a security guard.
Before the disaster, Bai Family Hospital had several hundred medical staff, with Li Wenyuan as the dean. Bai Shuang took over as chairman after Bai Shiyan fell ill, and it wasn't long before.
Therefore, Bai Shuang didn't know most of the employees at Bai's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.
"You were also ostracized by the Kang family?"
"Hey, I'd rather be a security guard at any hospital operated by the Kang family than go there!"
Bai Shuang gave him a thumbs up, "You have guts."
"It's just that many higher-paying jobs don't seem to require Bai's family."
"Why? Is it still the Kang family causing trouble?"
"It should be, because medical institutions are in high demand; there are people who need them and are willing to be driven by them."
Bai Shuang understood. How much hatred must the Kang family have for the Bai family?
Bai Shuang strongly suspects that her aunt and Sun Zheng are plotting to have Li Qingqing poison her, and that the mastermind behind it all is the Kang family.
Just because of Bai's competitors?
He had sold his pharmaceutical factory shares to them before the disaster, and then the flood came and destroyed the factory, so he was really taken advantage of.
Perhaps there are other reasons?
These grassroots people don't fight, they don't brawl, they don't break the law, they just say the conditions aren't right, what can you do?
Grandpa Lu was the most annoyed, as he couldn't concern himself with or attend to matters within his professional field.
"Miss, I'll watch the dog for you. You two go for your walk."
Snow leopard, woof woof, who wants you to look?
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Bai Shuang went to the supermarket mainly to see what they had so she could easily take things out later.
Vegetables are available, mostly leafy greens, and cost 10-20 points per pound, which is equivalent to exchanging 2-4 pounds of grain for one pound of vegetables.
There was no fruit, but some expired canned fruit.
There were quite a few clothes, mostly secondhand, but they looked very clean. According to the salesperson, these clothes had been washed, disinfected, ironed, and then bagged for sale.
There's no other way; resources are scarce in the apocalypse, and having old clothes to wear is already a blessing.
These are all old clothes that scavengers find when they go out, and they bring them back to the base to exchange for points.
The base has limited greenhouses, and the cost is high, so it must prioritize essential commodities like grains and vegetables. Fruits and cotton for making clothes cannot be grown.
Bai Shuang glanced around the supermarket and then left.
It was getting late, so Lu Yu led Bai Shuang straight to Grandpa Lu's office.
Upon entering the leader's office area, a warm feeling greeted me. Bai Shuang took off her thick coat, revealing a white tight-fitting cashmere shirt and tight blue jeans, looking relaxed and upright.
With her naturally curly, side-parted short hair, large, dark eyes, and fair skin, she possessed an indescribable beauty that drew Lu Yu's attention.
Bai Shuang: "We're in the elevator. What are you staring at? Never seen it before?"
He then came to his senses.
(PS: Because the base's outer shell is not completely sealed, the overall heating system for the ellipsoid is not turned on. To save energy, only heating is applied to a small area. Therefore, you will still need to wear a thick coat outside the rooms in the base.)
So he let Lu Yu's personal guards and Bai Jiu and the others go to the military camp to play.
It was a heavily guarded area, so they couldn't get in, and there was no point in just standing at the entrance.
Bai Jiu tried to pull the snow leopard away, but the creature grabbed Bai Shuang's clothes and wouldn't let go. There was no other way but to take it with him.
The guards at Grandpa Lu's office recognized Lu Yu and had also seen Bai Shuang, so they could go straight in.
Is Grandpa home?
The guard saluted. "General, the commander is inside."
This time, we won't stop the snow leopard; we'll go in together.
Grandpa Lu was working, and Ling Liyuan was next to him. They were talking about something.
Lu Yu: "Grandpa, Uncle Ling."
As soon as the snow leopard went inside, it rushed to Grandpa Lu's side, jumping and wagging its tail.
Grandpa Lu fed it a piece of beef jerky last time.
"This guy came to me again asking for food."
As Grandpa Lu spoke, he opened the drawer, took out a piece, and handed it to him.
Bai Shuang: "Grandpa Lu, stop working, it's time for acupuncture."
"Girl, can we skip the injection? I can drink another bottle of that medicine."
\"cannot."
Grandpa Lu had no choice but to put down his work and resignedly walk towards the rest room, muttering to himself.
"That girl is just as awful as that brat."
"If you keep saying that, I won't give you anything good."
Ling Liyuan was already used to the way the group interacted last time, so he just stared intently at Bai Shuang.
Lu Yu helped his grandfather take off his shirt, revealing the acupoints he needed to use, and then helped him lie down.
Bai Shuang took his pulse and found it to be stronger than yesterday. She adjusted the acupuncture technique and began administering the needles.
After inserting a set of needles, begin pressing the needles down. Once all the needling processes are completed, it's time to remove the needles.
She looked up and found the middle-aged man still sitting there, staring at her.
The two locked eyes, and Ling Liyuan immediately looked away, bid farewell to Grandpa Lu, and left.
Bai Shuang: "I noticed he's acting a bit strange."
Last time he kept asking me about my background, and this time he's staring at me. Is Ling Qingyao's father mentally ill?
Lu Yu: "Uncle Ling isn't usually like this. Was he angered by Ling Qingyao?"
Grandpa Lu, ...
"Girl, what's your father's name?"
"I don't have a father. Maybe it was through IVF, who knows? My mom didn't tell me."
Grandpa Lu nodded. He observed a moment of silence for his close friend, who was much older than him. It seemed that his journey to reunite with his daughter was long and arduous.
Sigh, how could someone so smart and capable have let things get to this point? How could she have been tricked by her own mother back then?
Never mind him, he should bear the consequences of his own mistakes. Grandpa Lu should enjoy the happiness of being surrounded by his grandson and granddaughter-in-law.
After Bai Shuang finished acupuncture for Grandpa Lu, she prepared a new prescription and added spiritual spring water for him to drink.
"Girl, how far can you adjust my body?"
"I can't guarantee you'll be young again, but if you do as I say, you can definitely live to be a hundred."
"Alright, I'll take your kind words. When you give birth to a great-grandchild, I'll dump all my responsibilities on you and enjoy the happiness of raising a great-grandchild."
Lu Yu: "Dream on."
After helping Grandpa Lu with his health, Bai Shuang went to the Agricultural Research Institute with Lu Yu.
Halfway there, Lu Yu received a call from his military camp; there was something he needed to discuss.
"Let's go tomorrow."
"You go about your business, I'll go by myself."
Just kidding, when have I ever been unable to handle things on my own?
When they arrived at the research institute, the old man who was tending to the plants saw Bai Shuang and hurriedly ran over, wiping his eyes with a handkerchief.
"You look like Miss Bai to me. How...how did you get here?"
Bai Shuang found it amusing. "Of course it flew over."
"You...you're dead?"
Snow leopard, woof woof, you're dead! You actually said your master is dead.
At this moment, Bai Shuang thought, "If only Bai Jiu could be by my side, I wouldn't have to say a word. That old man's thought process is really different."
