Chapter 29
The custom here is that any family that cares about their daughter will prepare a dowry for her, for fear that she will have an inconvenience living in the man's home. If Chu Xianglan is not allowed to prepare a dowry, she would probably feel uncomfortable.
As for the money spent on her? Bai Ying planned to find an excuse to pay it back later. Her family was large and not well-off, and they had already spent a lot of money on her schooling over the years. She couldn't let the Bai family continue to sacrifice for her.
"You kid! Okay, okay, then I'll use this money to prepare a bigger dowry for you so you don't have to suffer on the farm."
Chu Xianglan remembered that Bai Ying had just received a subsidy, and she had spent two yuan before. The remaining money was enough to buy cloth for making clothes. "Then mother will leave first. Remember to come back early today!"
After giving Bai Ying some worried advice, Chu Xianglan went to her neighbor Aunt Zhang's house to sew a quilt with her.
Seeing Chu Xianglan leave, Huang Xia, who was standing in the room, rolled her eyes and came forward, "Sister-in-law, you still have to be on duty at the brigade clinic this morning. With so many people coming and going, it's inevitable that some of them might be dishonest. What if you lose some money? Let me keep it for you."
Haha... Mom really didn't think much about it. My sister-in-law set her eyes on the money in her hands so quickly.
"No, how dare I trouble my sister-in-law?" Bai Ying refused decisively, and said pointedly, "Even a child as old as Gou Niu knows that you can't keep people waiting for dinner at home, let alone such a large sum of money. I will definitely pay more attention."
Hearing Bai Ying exposing her past, Huang Xia didn't know if she had something to hide or what, but strangely, she didn't refute it. Instead, she laughed dryly and withdrew her hand in disappointment.
"Well, then sister-in-law will be waiting for you at the clinic at noon. As soon as you get off work, we will go to the commune."
"Row."
Bai Ying responded and left the yard with the medicine box.
Considering Huang Xia's abnormal reaction since yesterday, Bai Ying did not rush to the brigade clinic immediately for safety reasons, but instead stayed behind the willow tree at the door of her house, keeping an eye on her family's movements.
Not long after, Huang Xia came out of the house, closed the gate, looked around furtively to make sure there was no one around, and then walked quickly towards the direction of the Stone Brigade.
There really is a ghost.
Bai Ying narrowed her eyes, and when Huang Xia walked away, she turned around and went back to her home. She took an awl that Chu Xianglan used to sew shoe soles from her parents' room and put it in her pocket.
There was nothing important in the brigade clinic this morning.
However, there was a young person at the educated youth center who went to bed without drying her hair at night and caught a cold and had a fever. Zhou Li came to the clinic to get medicine for her.
After meeting Bai Ying, Zhou Li told her about Gu Changkong's situation.
Last night, Liang Fang and his team worked for several hours and rushed to send Gu Changkong to the county hospital. Because it was a little late, the doctor gave him two bottles of anti-viper serum. He is still not conscious and is still being observed in the intensive care unit.
The doctor at the county hospital also specially praised the doctor who treated Gu Changkong's wound, saying that it was fortunate that the wound was treated properly and the onset of snake venom was delayed, otherwise it would have taken such a long time to send the patient to the hospital and he would have died long ago.
Only one person could stay at the hospital to accompany them. Liang Fang and the other educated youth could not stay overnight without a letter of certification, so they had to rush back overnight. Zhu Xiaoxiao was left to take care of them in the hospital. It was estimated that she and Gu Changkong would not be able to return to Liushu Brigade in a short time.
Upon hearing this news, Bai Ying couldn't help but laugh out loud.
This is not her fault. She gave all the advice she could. It was those educated youth who were too smart and delayed sending them to the hospital.
After having lunch in the brigade canteen at noon, Bai Ying locked the door of the brigade clinic and hung a sign saying "rest".
Outside, Huang Xia hasn't arrived yet.
Bai Ying did not stay there to wait for her, but went to Xuri Farm with the medicine box first. When she was planning to change the medicine for Shen Ao, she mentioned the wedding date.
