Chapter 235 She is just a scoundrel
The grain taken out from Jiang's Medical Clinic was also discounted and settled with Jiang's Medical Clinic.
Jiang Lianzhu suddenly had thousands of taels of silver in her hands. This was life-saving money. It sounded like a lot, but in fact, after saving the people in the whole town, a thousand taels of silver was not much at all.
As a result, the not-so-wealthy families finally had some income again.
The food at home was almost gone, so Jiang Cheng took some silver and went to the grain store with everyone else, happily queuing up to buy food.
Many people were afraid of having nothing to eat, so they bought hundreds of kilograms of food at once. Jiang Lianzhu had told her to buy less, as there would be plenty of food in the future, and not to buy too much in the early stages, as this would put pressure on and have a negative impact on others.
It’s true that Jiang Chengshi now listens to her daughter. She does whatever her daughter asks her to do. Because of her daughter, she is now highly respected in Shili Town.
When she first came to Shili Town, others looked at her with some prejudice.
Why?
Because what kind of married daughter would bring her mother to live with her husband's family?
No matter how special the situation is, it is rare. Isn't this holding my daughter back?
Jiang Lianzhu's various performances now have made an absolute contribution to Shili Town. Everyone who sees her now praises her for giving birth to a daughter and for having a good daughter. They envy her for being blessed to be able to live with her daughter in her old age. No one dares to look down on her anymore.
She had a good daughter like Jiang Lianzhu. She, Jiang Chengshi, had enjoyed the happiness she had never enjoyed in her life and the honor she had never received. She gave birth to two biological sons, but her biological sons used her life to make money. She adopted a daughter, but she enjoyed great happiness with her daughter. This was all fate!
This shows that Jiang Cheng is destined to be blessed in old age.
Her back has become straighter and she looks younger and younger.
Now the Jiang family is well-known in Shili Town and has become a great benefactor.
When Dabao and Erbao went to school, the teachers' attitude towards them was no longer the same as before.
Especially Mr. He.
I pay more attention to my eldest and second child than before.
After unanimous recommendation by all the teachers and students in the school, Dabao and Erbao were chosen as the monitor of the Di class and the Ren class respectively.
Mr. He’s study.
The old man was writing a long and eloquent account of the famine in Shili Town.
While he was writing furiously, Wang Dalang brought in some tea.
"Teacher, please drink some water to moisten your throat. You have been writing all morning."
Master He didn't even raise his head. "Put it there."
I was just getting into the mood to write.
It tells the story of Jiang Lianzhu and Wang Laowu, a couple, returning from the mountains with two large carts of food, half sweet potatoes and yams, half meat, filling up the two large ox carts. This wasn't just food; it was the hope for the survival of the entire town...
Wang Dalang served tea but didn't leave.
Master He noticed that he was hesitant to speak. "What do you want to say? Just say it. Is there something you don't understand?"
Wang Dalang bit his lip. "No, Master, I've thoroughly read the articles you taught me. I've mastered the text and its meaning. I'm just waiting for the final exam next spring! I just heard that my two cousins have been appointed as monitors for the "Di" and "Ren" classes, and many students have privately expressed dissatisfaction..."
Mr. He didn't take it to heart at all and continued writing his article.
Just casually asked, "Oh, what's your opinion?"
Wang Dalang looked embarrassed to speak. "It's really unpleasant to say. What are you saying? Master, you're a snob. Seeing their parents become famous in the town, you're trying to curry favor with them. Especially Wang Yue, whose academic performance is not that outstanding. And Wang Xi just joined the Dizi class. How can he surpass the seniors who have been in the Dizi class for several years? How can he even be so outstanding? I couldn't stand it. I argued with them for a while, but in my heart, I thought, actually, what they said does have a point..."
This time, Master He stopped writing.
Looking straight at Wang Dalang.
He stared blankly for a long time without saying a word.
After a long while, he sighed, "Wang Ji, I used to treat you as my close disciple and thought Jiang was really the evil woman you described. Now everything has proven that I was too gullible to believe your lies. Now, you still want to whisper in my ear. You really disappoint me."
Wang Dalang's real name was Wang Ji, and he was previously called Wang Lai Fu. After entering school, he asked Master He to change his local name and take the name Wang Ji.
He lowered his head and said timidly, "Master, she used the food to help other people this time, and she also had a prejudice against our Wang family. She didn't send a single grain of rice to our Wang family. My grandparents almost starved to death at home, and no one cared..."
Mr. He didn't want to listen to him anymore.
In the past, whenever he showed such a humble look, the old master couldn't help but feel pity for him.
"Wang Ji, Doctor Jiang's character is known to everyone in the world, and you alone cannot discredit it. No matter how she treats your family, she must have her own reasons. You should ask your family to look for the reasons within themselves. You shouldn't be lenient with yourself and treat others with the same magnanimous expectations. Forget it, I won't say any more to you. Put all your thoughts into preparing for next year's spring exam. If you don't pass it next year, you're too old to go back and start a family and share your family's worries."
In the future, even if you pass the examination to become a scholar or a juren, if you do not have good character and the necessary responsibilities, you will not have much success.
Wang Dalang was dumbfounded.
He didn't expect that the old teacher who had always favored him would say such serious words.
Because of Jiang!
"Master, I don't mean anything else. I also think that my fifth uncle and fifth aunt are heroes of our Shili Town. Master, I have always believed that my grandparents were wrong, and our family was wrong. I was confused and said these words to you today. It's my fault. Master, please forgive me this time. I won't dare to do it again next time..."
Old Master He shook his head. "Go out. From now on, don't bring me tea anymore. I have someone here to serve tea. Study hard for your final exam next year."
Wang Dalang was filled with fear and regret. He quickly bowed and went out.
After going out, he clenched his fists.
It’s all because of the Jiang family!
Isn't Jiang just rich? She got inside information in advance, stockpiled food, and then, at the critical moment, used it to save the people and win a good reputation. After winning the reputation, the government rewarded her with silver. She was a sure win, and only so many fools were still thanking her, saying that she saved their lives.
What life-saving thing? She runs a clinic, isn't it natural for her to treat people who have been poisoned?
Otherwise, why would she open a clinic?
Also, she wasn't the only one who treated the poisoned people. It was Old Doctor Tong who really made a great contribution. He was so old, and in terms of experience and medical skills, how was he not better than her? She was just a scoundrel.
