The Lin family was naturally very generous, with one box costing US$150,000.
According to the current exchange rate, it can be exchanged for more than 400,000 RMB. Of course, the purchasing power of the US dollar is more than that. If it is taken to the black market, it may be exchanged for 500,000 or 600,000 RMB.
This is a huge sum of money. Nowadays, it costs less than 10,000 yuan to buy a house in Beijing, and a courtyard house costs only tens of thousands of yuan. As long as she wants, she can buy several or even dozens of houses in the capital, and she won't have to worry about the future three generations.
But Mu Huaixi directly took out 200,000 yuan and donated it to the pension office with the help of his parents-in-law, specifying that the money was for the soldiers injured on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang and the families who had lost their loved ones.
For the other 200,000 yuan, she wants to find a medical school to donate or cooperate with to specialize in women's childbirth and postpartum care.
Although her two births seemed smooth, she was in great pain during the confinement period. In addition, when she was setting up a stall and treating patients in front of the palace, she saw too many sisters and aunts who suffered from childbirth and multiple births.
Some women gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Before giving birth, they could carry heavy bags at the port like men. But after giving birth, they dare not even cough hard. They will become incontinent if they exert any force. They can't even muster the strength to quarrel with their own men.
Tears, hemorrhoids, urinary incontinence, uterine prolapse, she never thought she would see so much unspeakable pain among her neighbors, and these pains were all caused by improper care during childbirth and after delivery.
In the last two years of medical school, Mu Huaixi had spontaneously turned to study and research in this area. However, their school was more like a military medical school. There were records of this aspect in the ancient medical books in the library, but there were no teachers specializing in this area.
Originally, she planned to work in the Qilu Military Region, and then slowly look for medical books and learn from senior doctors. Now that she has received a huge sum of money, she also wants to follow Lin Yi's example and invest in a medical school that specializes in this area, preferably one that has both Chinese and Western medicine, to conduct research combining Chinese and Western medicine.
She told this to her parents-in-law and mother-in-law, and they were all silent for a moment.
"Leave this matter to me, I'll help you make the contact," her father-in-law took the matter over as soon as he opened his mouth, and he looked as reliable as he could be.
"Donate the rest to the medical school," Mu Huaixi still felt a little guilty. In fact, the medical school was also short of money. The door of the anatomy room was broken, and the specimens inside were almost older than her.
Li Xiangzhi listened to her arrangements and suddenly asked, "Don't you want to keep some for yourself?"
"I'll keep it," Mu Huaixi took out the last five hundred dollars, "Didn't you say you would take me to the Friendship Store? These should be enough to buy gifts for everyone."
If that’s not enough, she still has more in her wallet.
Because I was busy with these dollar matters, I couldn't go shopping as planned. Led by my parents-in-law, I hurried to two departments and a bank. I was busy until the evening and then I picked up my grandparents and others.
"......" Li Xiangzhi stared at her for a long time, then suddenly turned to her husband and said, "As expected, she is a child raised by her parents. Her personality is exactly like her parents'."
"Indeed." Ying's father nodded and smiled to comfort her doubts. "We all like you very much. Only a pure person like you can live with Mingcheng."
Mu Huaixi quickly waved her hands. She was also a layman and didn't dare to bear these two words of evaluation. But she suddenly found that when Ying's father smiled, the smile lines at the corners of his eyes looked exactly like Ying Mingcheng's. "They are indeed father and son."
In fact, at the beginning she felt that Ying's father was not like Mingcheng's father, nor like her grandfather's son.
In fact, his painting style is completely different from the father and son in Shengjing. Ying's father has a fair face and no beard, with a slicked-back hair that makes him look energetic. He wears a neat dark blue Zhongshan suit and always has a pen stuck on his chest. He looks more like someone you would see on the news broadcast.
He was like a top scholar who suddenly appeared in Wuhou Mansion, making people feel unfamiliar and unexpected.
She also discovered that her parents-in-law had lived abroad and in the capital for a long time, and that every aspect of their lives was refined, unlike the rough men at home.
For example, in this Beijing house, careful little decorations can be seen everywhere, whether it is the flowers on the table and in the corners, the paintings on the staircase walls, or the mother-of-pearl on the wardrobe, all of them appear particularly exquisite.
Mu Huaixi also felt that her father-in-law was a stranger before, but when she saw the smile lines under his eyes, she suddenly felt close to him.
She thought of the various gifts her parents-in-law had sent to Shengjing during the holidays, as well as the support they had given them when she got married, and suddenly felt embarrassed for her recent alienation.
"Then I'll leave all these things to mom and dad," Mu Huaixi bravely shouted out.
After she called out, she realized that it was not that difficult. Although her parents were gone, Ying Mingcheng's grandparents and parents would still love her, and she would be a good parent to Xiao Huihui and Xiao Heping.
"Hey hey," Ying's father and mother were stunned, and it took them a while to agree.
Mu Huaixi blushed a little. It seemed that both parties were not used to it. Otherwise...
"That's it!" Li Xiangzhi made the final decision, even rolling her eyes slightly, disregarding her ladylike image. "We're not used to it because that brat Ying Mingcheng has never liked to call us that way since we were little. When we came back from work, the kid simply didn't recognize us."
Mu Huaixi smiled. She could imagine Ying Mingcheng's frustration at that time. He had talked to her about it a while ago, saying that he spent too little time with his parents when he was a child, and he blamed them a little at that time.
When he became someone else's father, he realized that work and family are sometimes incompatible, especially for a military family like theirs.
As the saying goes, only when you become a parent can you understand your parents. She repeated what Ying Mingcheng had said to her parents-in-law, emphasizing, "He must be willing to call you now. If he doesn't, he must be shy."
"Shy? Who's shy?" Ying Mingcheng came in carrying two large lunch boxes. Upon hearing her words, he added, "Those two little ones still know how to be shy?"
Before coming, Mu Huaixi specially showed them photos of his parents-in-law, so Xiao Huihui and Xiao Heping were not at all shy here. They hugged their parents-in-law and kissed them, which made them melt in love.
But now I was tired from playing, so I went upstairs to rest with Grandpa Ying and Grandma Ying.
"What were you doing?" Mu Huaixi hadn't seen him since she woke up in the morning and thought he had returned to the military area.
"I have something to do," Ying Mingcheng nodded at her, indicating that he would go back to the house to talk about it, and came over with a large lunch box, "Tell Aunt Da Chu and the others not to cook tonight. I brought some food back, so just have a bite."
Taking a child on a train is indeed torturous, and it is even more torturous when Mu Huaixi, the big devil who can suppress the little devil, is not here.
My grandparents and aunts are all old and can’t rest even for a day.
Ying Mingcheng felt that his arrangement was very good. When he got closer, he found that his parents' eyes were fixed on him, with a hint of expectation.
"?" He was a little confused.
