Chapter 90: Staff
The three of them looked at each other and quietly put their ears to the door frame.
However, they heard: "The first rule of getting along between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is that you must show your love for your husband in front of your mother-in-law. Of course, don't forget to love her with your husband and let her know that you are all his children.
Second, you should praise your husband more in front of your mother-in-law. No mother doesn’t like to hear others praise her son.
The third and most important thing is that if your mother-in-law is unreasonable, you can't just go along with her. You can be gentle with your words, but you must be decisive in your actions. Let them know that you have your bottom line too...."
"What are these two doing?" The three of them thought there was something wrong with their ears. A young couple spent the entire night discussing how to get along with their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? No matter how they thought about it, this situation seemed strange.
Chu Chengyun finally couldn't hold back any longer and knocked on the door. "Aci, Rui Ge'er, it's already this late, what are you two doing in your room?"
Chu Ci and Fan Jingrui looked up and realized that it was already daybreak. They quickly blew out the candle and opened the door.
"Grandpa Chu, Great Grandpa, Master, please come in. You are just the right person to give us some advice." Chu Ci smiled and invited the three of them into the room.
Consultation? What? Are they asking these three old men to help deal with the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law? The three were confused.
The three of them were more and more shocked when they read the manuscript handed over by Chu Ci. Especially the head of the Chu family, he knew clearly what kind of connections and benefits would be brought to Chu Ci if this thing was successful.
Suppressing his excitement, Patriarch Chu asked, "What do we old men need to do?"
Chu Ci hadn't expected the Chu family head to trust him so much, so he quickly flattered him, "Grandpa is the best to Ah Ci."
But as soon as he said this, he caused trouble. Doctor Hua immediately expressed his dissatisfaction: "Don't tell me that I treat you badly?"
Chu Chengyun was not to be outdone: "Aci, you will make grandpa very sad."
Chu Ci smiled a little embarrassedly, but said in a provocative way: "Whether it is good or not depends on your actual actions!"
"You little devil, you don't even have the attitude to ask for help." Although Chu Chengyun and Hua Shenyi said this, they couldn't get angry in their hearts. "Tell me, what do you want us to do?"
"Grandpa Chu, there's a spot for you in the women's self-defense class I'm planning." Chu Ci said as he carefully glanced at Chu Chengyun's face. Seeing that he looked normal, he felt relieved.
Chu Ci then turned his attention to Doctor Hua. "They say giving birth is like stepping into the gates of hell. One reason is their young age, which makes them unsuitable for childbirth. An even more important factor is their lack of common sense about childbirth. Master, I'd like to borrow your reputation for a little while longer."
As Chu Ci spoke, he did not forget to gesture with his little finger.
The previous epidemic prevention manual had benefited Dr. Hua a lot. Now that Chu Ci was planning to compile content on women's childbirth, he was naturally eager to do so.
Of course, he suppressed his inner excitement and said, "Then you write it first. After it's finished, I'll help you revise it."
But Chu Ci was not satisfied with this. "Master, what I mean is that after the academy is built, you will have to help teach the students."
Upon hearing this, Doctor Hua finally couldn't help himself and said to Chu Chengyun beside him: "Look, look at this girl, she is indeed determined to run the women's college as a business, she is grabbing us old guys as much as she can!"
Unfortunately, he was just flirting with a blind man. Chu Chengyun's filter for Chu Ci was not ordinary thick, "Old man Hua, don't take advantage of me. It's a pity that I don't know medical skills, otherwise you wouldn't have had a chance."
Doctor Hua: Well, it seems he is the only outsider here.
He swung his long sleeves and said angrily, "I can agree to it, but you have to agree to one condition of mine."
"As long as you are willing, let alone one condition, even if it is a hundred conditions, I will do it for you." Chu Ci boasted without hesitation and agreed very readily.
This put Divine Doctor Hua in a difficult position. After thinking for a moment, he said, "My request is not high. When the academy is completed, you must help me build a fully equipped pharmacy."
For others, this requirement may be difficult to achieve, but for Chu Ci, it is a piece of cake!
On the contrary, in the process of compiling the common sense of married life, Chu Ci repeatedly considered and revised it many times. In the end, the version that Doctor Hua received was the one that had gone through more than a dozen rounds of revisions.
Unexpectedly, the first thing Dr. Hua said after receiving it was: "It's so small, it's really convenient to read. But have you ever thought about how much it costs?"
"Master, please take a look at the content first." Although Chu Ci said this, he was actually thinking about putting movable type printing on the agenda.
After spending a long time with Chu Ci, Dr. Hua, seeing her absent-minded look, knew that Chu Ci had something on her mind. So he said no more and opened the booklet in his hand to check each item one by one.
The booklet prepared by Chuci is very detailed, with not only text annotations but also easy-to-understand pictures.
This was beyond Doctor Hua's expectations. "Not bad, not bad. You've thought it through more thoroughly than an old man like me."
Changing the subject, Divine Doctor Hua suddenly said, "I'll keep this booklet for now. It just so happens that Old Man Bai wrote to me bragging about his genius apprentice. I'll show him what a true genius is."
"Old man Bai? Master, is his medical skill good?" Chu Ci stared at Doctor Hua with sparkling eyes when he heard this.
Divine Doctor Hua knew what Chu Ci was planning and gently tapped him on the forehead, "Bai Pu, the former Imperial Physician, the Chief Physician of the Xia Dynasty, his eldest son is the current Chief Physician. Do you think his medical skills are good?"
However, just as Chu Ci was about to speak, Doctor Hua poured cold water on him. "Bai Pu values power the most. You can put away those little calculations in your mind."
As expected, Chu Ci's face instantly fell, "Master, I'll go back to my room first."
"Go." Doctor Hua waved his hand and said, as if he didn't notice Chu Ci's abnormality.
That afternoon, Dongqing Street, Lianzhou.
A woman carrying a bamboo basket was walking hurriedly, looking around. "Why can't I find it? How can I explain this to my mother-in-law when I get home?"
Coincidentally, the gossipy Liu Po of Dongqing Street happened to be passing by and immediately smelled the scent of gossip. "Sister, what are you looking for? I know this street like no other. Why don't you tell me? Maybe I can help you."
"Really? Thank you so much, Auntie. You are such a kind person." The woman seemed unaware of Liu Po's intentions and thanked her profusely. She then recounted her experiences one by one.
