Chapter 31: Quirks
There was no point in Dean Cheng getting angry, so he could only rack his brains to think of a solution.
But he never expected that things would take a turn for the better.
Before he could find time to persuade Lin Li, Lin Li actually took the initiative to find him and asked him to help find a caregiver.
So he happily carried out his plan to take credit.
He went to the county seat and spoke at length in front of the leaders.
He said that in order to take better care of the war hero, he convinced the stingy Lin Li who didn't want to spend money to let the hospital carefully select a nurse for the war hero Ling Xiao.
If Lin Li is still unwilling to pay in the end, the hospital is willing to bear the expenses.
In reality, the dean spoke to his superiors in such nice words, but he had already figured out how to get money from Lin Li when the time comes.
After hearing what he said, the leader thought about it and said that he would go back and hold a meeting to discuss Ling Xiao's matter again to see if it could be done more comprehensively.
Then, the leader sent Lao Ning over.
At this moment, Lin Li came to see Dean Cheng. Dean Cheng naturally would not tell anyone about his eloquent speech to seek credit in front of the leader.
He just said calmly: "I applied to the leader very seriously, and the leader made a prompt decision, saying that he would help find another male nurse. Then he sent Lao Ning. I think since he is sent by the county leader, Comrade Lin doesn't need to be so harsh on him, right?"
Dean Cheng didn't have a good impression of Lin Li because Lin Li dealt with Luan Xiaopei.
Dean Cheng did not dare to defend himself in front of Zhou Qiang, so he harshly scolded the head nurse and Luan Xiaopei.
They even wanted to suspend Luan Xiaopei from his job and deduct half a month's salary from her as compensation to Lin Li, saying it was for mental damages. But in reality, Dean Cheng did so reluctantly because he was afraid that the matter would get out of hand.
Because Luan Xiaopei got in through connections, he was afraid that Zhou Qiang would investigate these things, so he quickly imposed severe punishment on Luan Xiaopei to appease Zhou Qiang's anger.
But deep down, he hated Lin Li.
Lin Li found it a little funny when he heard what Dean Cheng was thinking.
She was thinking, OK, now I have an even bigger handle on Luan Xiaopei, right?
It would be fine if Luan Xiaopei didn't bother her in the future, but if he still dared to go against her, don't blame her for being rude.
By then even Dean Cheng will be implicated by Luan Xiaopei, and Luan Xiaopei will surely regret it.
Thinking of this, Lin Li said to Dean Cheng seriously: "Dean, I'm not being harsh. Even if it's someone sent by the county leaders, I have to find out the details."
"Haha... what do you mean by find out the details?" Dean Cheng sneered contemptuously, "Comrade Lin, why are you saying such nice things? I heard... you are just asking for the salary?"
Although he didn't dare to offend Lin Li about Luan Xiaopei's matter, now that Lin Li was actually seeking death and suspecting the people sent by the county leaders, he dared to take advantage of the situation and reprimand Lin Li to vent his anger.
If he couldn't win the argument against Lin Li, he would go to the leader and complain about Lin Li, and let the leader vent his anger.
So now, without waiting for Lin Li to respond, Dean Cheng once again said in a sinister tone: "Lin Li, don't go too far! You spent Comrade Ling's subsidy while having an affair. That day, a man named Xue Qingsong came over to quarrel with you. That man was your lover, right?"
Lin Li smiled and said, "Dean Cheng, it turns out that you, with your status, have the same hobby as the illiterate peasant, which is to believe in rumors and spread them. I didn't expect this."
Dean Cheng was hurt, so he naturally became even angrier.
He was filled with righteous indignation: "Everyone in the hospital knows that you are having an affair. Why are you still so shameless as to deny it? I advise you that at this critical moment, you should at least pretend. Let the organization think that you are willing to spend money for Comrade Ling. Only then will you have a chance to keep your identity! Every word I say is from the bottom of my heart!"
"Oh? So some things need to be pretended?" Lin Li crossed his arms and asked curiously, "So, Luan Xiaopei got the job in the hospital through connections, and many people know about this. Why has she never pretended to be of higher quality? And she even dared to slander others with such despicable means."
"What did you say?" Dean Cheng's eyes went dark and he staggered.
Lin Li smiled. In fact, as long as Dean Cheng didn't provoke her, she didn't want to dig up any dirt on Dean Cheng.
After all, it is human nature to use backdoors to help relatives and friends find jobs.
Lin Li then raised a question: "Luan Xiaopei slandered a small figure like me, and she even dared to slander Zhou Qiang. Why isn't she afraid that Comrade Zhou Qiang will investigate her background? Is it because the big tree behind her is too big?"
"You are talking nonsense!" Dean Cheng scolded sharply.
He finally managed to calm his racing nerves, and now felt that if he spoke louder than usual, he would not reveal his panic.
"Dean Cheng, don't be so nervous..." Lin Li pulled Dean Chen's sleeve with his hand.
Then he withdrew his hand with a look of disgust, and then pretentiously patted the "dust" off his hands.
"I have decided. If the organization can provide me with all the information about Comrade Ning's work and family, I might trust him. But if they can't provide it to me, I'm sorry, I can't use this person. If the organization wants to call me to the county to talk to them in person, I will go there immediately. Please convey these words for me."
Lin Li finished this long speech in one breath.
This is a clear threat from her.
After saying that, she walked out without looking back.
Then she asked a nurse about the cleaning room in the hospital, bought some things, and went there.
Looking for Sister Liu.
Sister Liu is busy.
She is specifically responsible for washing clothes for doctors and nurses and then disinfecting them.
In that era, everything was done manually, and there were no washing machines or sterilizers.
Seeing what Lin Li was holding, Sister Liu stretched out her bubble-filled hand.
Lin Li smiled and said, "Sister Liu, I'll put it on the table for you."
Lin Li bought two cans of luncheon meat and two packs of milk powder and put them in a cloth bag.
People in this era buy maltose as gifts. Ordinary people can't buy milk powder even if they pay.
Sister Liu had noticed the milk powder when she was taking care of Ling Xiao before, and she had even expressed her feelings about it in her heart.
She never thought that Lin Li would hear her sigh.
Sister Liu wiped her hands on her pants and said embarrassedly: "Sister, why are you spending so much money? Your husband is still in the hospital and needs money everywhere. What are you thinking? You want to spend money on someone like me who has nothing to do with you..."
Then he picked up the cloth bag and tried to stuff it back into Lin Li's hands.
How could Lin Li take back something that he gave sincerely?
"Sister, I bought it for your child, not for you. You have no say in the matter..." Lin Li said with a smile.
"When they grow up, I won't be able to make decisions anymore. Now I have the final say at home."
So the two of them pushed and shoved for a long time.
Lin Li apologized again: "Sister, when I asked you to go, I didn't have time to tell my second brother. But I didn't expect that he would treat you like that..."
Sister Liu shook her head: "Look at what you said, your second brother didn't treat me badly! He was very polite to me..."
"Didn't he forbid you to go?" Lin Li said, "I came to apologize to you. Please go back and help take care of my husband."
"Look at you, silly girl. What are you talking about? Your husband can already eat by himself. Even if your second brother doesn't have time to take care of him, any child in your family can feed him and take care of him. Why are you still spending that much money to hire a nurse? No one's money falls from the sky!"
"But……"
