?Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Farewell Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Farewell The meal was enjoyed happily.
Bai Yue didn’t know anything and still thought that the other places her sister went to were not much different from the current hospital.
Other than instructing Bai Xiao to take good care of herself, she really wasn’t worried. She just looked at her brother Bai Song, who seemed in low spirits, thinking it was because the training was too exhausting.
When leaving, Bai Yue secretly put five thousand yuan in Bai Xiao’s bag. They had long since repaid the ten thousand yuan borrowed from Bai Xiao. This money was for fear that the conditions where Bai Xiao was heading would be tough! At least she could take care of herself and should never skimp on food and drink.
Now, Bai Yue was rather well-off.
Unfortunately, she didn’t know that where Bai Xiao was headed, money couldn’t buy much.
“Big sister, I’ve booked a ticket and won’t come to say goodbye to you. You don’t need to send me off. Keep this land deed. When you have extra money like I mentioned before, build a large commercial center here. When that happens, just collecting rent will probably make your hands ache. Don’t always be so frugal, Haiping, Hai’an, and Haishun are all grown up; stop thinking about buying a house only when you have enough money.
Don’t buy a bungalow just because it’s slightly cheaper; go for an apartment instead. The winters here are tough, at least with central heating, the kids at home and you adults won’t suffer as much.”
Bai Xiao didn’t see it, and kept nagging there, mainly because if she didn’t, her older sister would continue living frugally and wouldn’t really start spending more liberally. But keeping the money in the bank wouldn’t likely be better than using it to genuinely improve their lives.
When there’s no money, there’s no choice. But if there’s money and still reluctance to spend, it’s just making life difficult for oneself.
Her big sister really could do it.
Living your whole life just earning money without enjoying it, that’s no different from being a machine.
Bai Yue sent her siblings out the door and ended up being lectured by Bai Xiao for a long time.
It’s uncertain whom this child takes after, always worrying.
Bai Song saw Bai Xiao off, the two waved goodbye.
Bai Song dropped Bai Xiao at her dorm, “I’m heading back first, I only took half a day off. Don’t talk about other things, just make sure to take care of yourself when you’re away. You’re a girl, and the battlefield is merciless; don’t act recklessly just because you think you’re somewhat capable.” He was truly worried.
Bai Yue didn’t know about the situation there, but how could he not know?
Military tensions were high, and there were constant conflicts in that area; some places even experienced continuous battles.
The thought of Bai Xiao, a girl, being in such danger there was unimaginable.
“Alright, big brother, I get it. Besides, I’m a doctor, so you might not even need me on the battlefield. With so many hospitals there, chances are I might not even get close to the front line. So, stop worrying unnecessarily,” Bai Xiao consoled Bai Song, knowing full well inside that Wei Shufen wouldn’t let her sit comfortably in a local hospital.
She was likely facing the front line.
But as a doctor, curing the sick and saving lives was her divine duty, no matter what. She was a doctor for life.
Certain unchangeable facts were associated with her, and from her memories, these conflicts would end in a few years; it was already the summer of 1986, and after 1989, such conflicts and frictions basically wouldn’t occur anymore.
Truthfully, who knows, the place she was headed to might not have any issues at all.
Others might not know, but she was clear about it.
The gears of history wouldn’t change just because of her arrival.
