During dinner that evening, Ye Qingqing told Lin Baiwei about her family's situation and didn't hide the fact that she had given advice. "I didn't think much about it at the time. Who knew that a child would let it slip? Mom, I won't meddle in other people's business anymore."
Ye Qingqing knew that Lin Shufang disliked meddling in other people's family affairs the most, and she also regretted giving Lin Baiwei advice. She hugged Lin Shufang's arm and acted coquettishly.
Lin Shufang glared at him, served the pig bone broth, and then said, "You've learned your lesson. Don't get involved in such troublesome matters in the future. Even an upright official has difficulty settling family disputes. Why should an outsider like you meddle in other people's business? What if they make up in the end? You'll end up pleasing neither side. Why bother?"
Ye Qingqing nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, I remember, I won't meddle in other people's business anymore. Mom, eat more fish!"
She ingratiatingly picked up a large piece of fish and handed it to Lin Shufang, who glared at her and then laughed first.
Lu Mo didn't care about these trivial matters at all. Ye Qingqing could do whatever she wanted, as he would cover for her. Moreover, Qingqing knew her limits and wouldn't do anything too outrageous.
Ye Qingqing then mentioned the matter of providing medical care for people in the community, and Lu Mo had no objections. He only said, "Don't work too hard. Or you could quit Meng's Hospital."
Ye Qingqing shook her head, "I promised Shanshan that I would be practicing medicine there for at least two or three years. Besides, I only go twice a week there, and each time it's only half a day. It's not hard work. I don't go to the community clinic every day either. I just go whenever I have free time. I can handle it."
Lin Shufang strongly agreed with this, saying, "If you can handle it, then go ahead and see a doctor. Treating the sick and saving lives is a good deed that will benefit future generations. From now on, Qingqing, you don't need to do any housework at home anymore; you can just focus on seeing patients."
Ye Qingqing felt even more embarrassed. To be honest, she hadn't done much work; Lin Shufang had taken care of everything, inside and out.
"Mom, why don't we hire a part-time cleaner? They can come and do a thorough cleaning once a week, so you won't have to work so hard all the time," Ye Qingqing suggested.
Previously, she wanted to hire a live-in nanny, but Lin Shufang was unwilling, saying she was not used to having strangers in the house. Ye Qingqing did not insist, and usually helped with some chores. However, if she were to see patients in the community, she would definitely not have time to do chores. Lin Shufang is not young anymore, and she didn't want her to get sick from overwork.
This time, Lin Shufang didn't refuse and readily agreed, "Okay, I'll hire a part-time worker."
Ye Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "I'll call Sister Li in a bit and ask her to arrange someone diligent."
Sister Li is none other than Li Xiuxiu. Her illness has been cured, and she married Bruce two years ago. They had a beautiful and lovely daughter who is as delicate as a porcelain doll. Bruce also voluntarily transferred to work in China and spends most of the year living in Pingjiang. The couple is very loving.
Li Xiuxiu's housekeeping company is already the leading company in Pingjiang. She has also expanded into other businesses, such as partnering with Tang Yuanyuan to run a postpartum care center, and her business is growing bigger and bigger.
A few days later, Ye Qingqing didn't run into Lin Baiwei, but the old lady saw her a few times. Unlike her usual arrogant self, she looked disheveled and just rolled her eyes when she saw Ye Qingqing.
There have been quite a few patients coming to see the doctor these past few days. Ye Qingqing only sees five a day. Some people even come to visit her home. Lin Shufang is very hospitable and treats everyone who comes with courtesy. Moreover, the residents in the community are indeed of good quality, with very few like Grandma Xiaojie.
"The Zhao family has been making a huge fuss these past few days. Oh dear, they say it's better to tear down ten temples than to break up one marriage. I really hope Xiao Jie's mother gets a divorce soon. The constant noise is keeping me up at night." An elderly woman, Xiao Jie's neighbor, knows this best.
