Lu Qing'er's lips curled up slightly, revealing a hint of confusion as she continued, "Oh, is that so? It's truly difficult for your parents, at their age, to sacrifice so much for you. They've probably given up their careers and family fortunes back home just to come here and work with you. As their children, it's not right for us to ask our parents to give up anything for our future. They've come all this way here, unfamiliar with the place, and probably can't do much."
Bai Yalan finally understood the meaning of her words. Was she hinting to everyone that she should establish an image of herself as inconsiderate to her parents?
Several colleagues in the medical department seemed to be thinking about this.
Bai Yalan looked at Lu Qing'er, her smile unchanged, and she said slowly, "That's not the case. My parents are doing business out there. They opened a clothing store and sell clothes, and they make quite a bit of money every month. Besides, they're very glad they made a good choice and followed me to the big city. Not only has it broadened their horizons, but their business is also more prosperous than back home."
Lu Qing'er's face instantly turned pale, and she only laughed awkwardly twice, "Really?"
Bai Yalan chuckled softly, looking at the other person's somewhat stiff face, and nodded: "Yes, as a person, you must gain what you gain. Let's just give up the little belongings in our hometown. As long as the family is together, working together and moving forward, life will always get better and better. At least my parents' monthly income now can catch up with our half-year salary."
When Lu Qing'er heard this, her expression became even uglier, with disbelief written all over her face.
But the other male military doctor nodded and rarely interrupted, "Indeed, don't underestimate those business people. If they do business well, they can really make a fortune every day. It's much better than those of us who just get a fixed salary."
The male doctor sighed as he spoke. It was obvious that there were people in his family who were engaged in business and they lived quite well.
In fact, most people who become military doctors do so out of passion and dreams. Compared with the outside world, the meager salary of military doctors is indeed not enough.
After hearing what Bai Yalan said, the other colleagues expressed envy and curiosity.
A female doctor asked curiously, "Doctor Bai, your parents own a clothing store. What kind of clothes do they sell?"
Their military doctors are no different from those in outside hospitals. They have more rest time and go shopping quite often.
As women, it is inevitable that they are interested in topics such as dressing.
Bai Yalan smiled and patiently replied, "Danglu is women's clothing. They used to work in a textile factory and are very familiar with clothing fabrics. They have very strict quality control. Danglu also has some high-quality men's clothing, and the styles are quite good. I think the style should be quite suitable for Dr. Liu's taste."
She was unusually playful and joked to the male doctor.
We are colleagues and have been together for a long time. We occasionally talk and laugh with each other.
In Bai Yalan's opinion, most military doctors are actually easy to get along with.
When Doctor Liu heard Bai Yalan's words, he laughed heartily and said politely, "Really? Then I'll bring my wife to your shop someday when I have time. Since we're all colleagues, it's better to keep the benefits within our family. After all, it doesn't matter where you buy clothes."
