Cai Fanzhou stroked his beard and said approvingly, "Not bad, not bad. Qing'er has a kind heart. Doctors have the heart of parents. To become a good doctor, one must first have compassion. This is called the benevolence of a doctor. Qing'er has a bright future."
Lin Zhengshan, who was standing to the side, was overjoyed to hear Doctor Cai praising his daughter.
Doctor Cai enjoys a high reputation among the people. By praising Qing'er in public, he can certainly enhance Qing'er's reputation and make the Regent take notice of her when they meet.
Lin Zhengshan knew very well that with his family background, it was impossible for Qing'er to become the Regent's principal wife, but even becoming a concubine would be enough to make the Lin family rise to prominence.
Lin Wanqing blushed slightly: "It's all thanks to Master's excellent teaching."
"Hahaha, Prefect Lin, you have a fine daughter. She is well-educated and polite, and will surely achieve great things in the future." Cai Fanzhou laughed heartily.
Su Ruojin, who was standing to the side, was completely ignored and became nothing more than a foil to Lin Wanqing at this moment.
Zhao Jiao no longer found Su Ruojin so objectionable. Giving her five taels of silver in exchange for Qing'er's good reputation was worthwhile, and her tone softened somewhat.
"Take the money and go. With this money, your parents will be happy, and life will be easier for them."
Su Ruojin glanced coldly at the bag of loose silver coins that Zhang Mama handed over, but did not reach out to take it.
Seeing this, Lin Zhengshan spoke up at the right time: "Hurry up and thank Madam, take the money and leave quickly. Don't affect the consultation conference, you can't bear that responsibility."
Upon hearing her master speak, Granny Zhang quickly stuffed the money pouch into Su Ruojin's hand, muttering under her breath, "Take it, little beggar..."
Little beggar?
Upon hearing Zhang Mama's words, Su Ruojin slightly raised her eyelids and glanced at Zhang Mama. Her eyes were calm and undisturbed, devoid of any emotion, like a thousand-year-old icy pool.
But that one glance inexplicably instilled fear in Zhang Mama, making her scalp tingle. She dared not say anything more and quickly retreated to the side.
This Su Ruojin is clearly so young, so why does she feel uneasy about the way this little bitch looks at her?
By this time, a crowd had gathered. Some people who didn't know the details thought that five taels of silver was a lot, and many praised the prefect's wife for her kindness.
"The prefect's wife is so kind. I also have a poor relative like that who keeps pestering me. It's so annoying."
"The prefect's daughter is beautiful and kind-hearted; she is indeed a medical student."
"I heard that the prefect's daughter was lost when she was young and was only recently found."
"A family that accumulates good deeds will surely be rewarded with good fortune; this is Heaven's help."
"Why isn't this young lady taking the money and leaving? Is it too little?"
"So young, yet so greedy."
......
Zhao Jiao was desperately trying to distance herself from Lin Wanqing and improve her reputation. Su Ruojin slowly tightened her grip on the money pouch in her hand.
Zhao Jiao breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. As long as this little bitch took the money and left, her ugly greedy face would be confirmed, and Qing'er would gain a reputation for being kind and generous.
But the next second, Su Ruojin raised an eyebrow and threw the money bag back at Zhao Jiao.
Seeing something flying towards her, Zhao Jiao instinctively reached out to block it, but unfortunately, she couldn't. The money bag hit her face directly, and half of her face instantly turned red.
Feeling the burning pain on her face and recognizing the money pouch that Su Ruojin had thrown at her, Zhao Jiao could no longer suppress her disgust for Su Ruojin and shouted angrily, "How dare you hit me! Su Ruojin, don't push your luck. Qing'er was just trying to help you, don't take advantage of me. Five taels of silver is already a lot."
