Chapter 507 - Chapter 507 Chapter 495 The Work at Capital Hospital

Chapter 507: Chapter 495: The Work at Capital Hospital Chapter 507: Chapter 495: The Work at Capital Hospital Lu Jiaxin chatted with Su Hongying for a while before Xie Kaixiao came back.

Seeing Lu Jiaxin, Xie Kaixiao walked towards her. When they were one meter apart, he extended his hand and said, “Jiaxin, I thank you on behalf of the brothers in the army.”

Having previously donated twenty million had been surprising enough, but this time, she had directly donated ten million greenbacks. When he heard the amount from Su Heyuan, he had to confirm it again because he could hardly believe it.

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, “If you want to thank someone, thank Gu Wenfeng. It was his concern for his comrades in the army that moved me, and that’s why I decided to donate a batch of medical equipment.”

“Additionally, because Gu Wenfeng was seriously injured on my account, I compensated him with two million Hong Kong Dollars. He entrusted me to use this money to buy foreign medication to donate to the troops he used to serve with.”

Two million Hong Kong Dollars couldn’t buy much medical equipment, so after communicating with him, Lu Jiaxin changed it to medication. His troop might even have to share some of the two million Hong Kong Dollars worth of medication. Of course, that was no longer her concern.

Xie Kaixiao didn’t know it was because of Gu Wenfeng, and he praised, “Gu Wenfeng is indeed a good comrade of ours.”

Lu Jiaxin didn’t want to let it go with just a light remark, “Uncle Xie, Gu Wenfeng has made such a great contribution, shouldn’t you arrange a job for his wife?”

Gu Wenfeng’s twin sons were already in kindergarten and would start elementary school the year after next. The grandparents had moved to the Forty-nine City and could help with picking up the kids, as well as cooking and cleaning, so Tian Jinhua could definitely go to work. It was not easy to find a job in the Forty-nine City, and even if she did, it would be a busy and exhausting one. With both the elderly and children to look after, her presence was necessary, especially when someone fell ill, so she had stayed at home. However, if she could get a job in a public institution or a state-owned enterprise, she would have relatively more freedom.

Xie Kaixiao chuckled, thinking the girl really had Gu Wenfeng’s best interests at heart, and it was not in vain that he had protected her. “How about we arrange for Gu Wenfeng to work in the logistics department of the Capital Hospital?”

The Capital Hospital had been renamed the previous year and was known in later times as the famous Harmonize Hospital. If Gu Wenfeng’s wife could work there, that would be excellent. Putting the salary aside for the moment, it would be convenient for family members to seek medical treatment in the future!

Lu Jiaxin said, “Isn’t it difficult to get a job at the Capital Hospital? Uncle Xie, I’m talking about a permanent, official position, not a temporary one, as that would be pointless.”

Xie Kaixiao smiled and replied, “Trading a few million worth of equipment for a hospital position shouldn’t be a problem. However, since Gu Wenfeng’s wife only finished elementary school, she can only do miscellaneous tasks in logistics.”

Although Gu Wenfeng’s wife was from a rural background, graduating from elementary school in her era was already quite an accomplishment. It was exactly because she was literate that she could work in logistics; otherwise, she would have to do dirty and tiresome work like cleaning.

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile, “Alright, I’ll tell Brother Gu when I get back. I’ve just bought them a house in Shi Family Alley, which has a bus route to the hospital.”

The traffic in Shi Family Alley was quite convenient, though whether it was a direct or transfer route was not certain. But people were willing to endure hardships, and having a job made commuting, even if it required transferring several times, quite acceptable.

“You bought Gu Wenfeng a house, too?”

Lu Jiaxin replied with slight helplessness, “He’s so stubborn, insisting on using all the compensation to buy medical equipment. That was okay, but he sends half his salary to buy medicine to send back, and the rest goes to help comrades in need and orphans, leaving no savings at home. His father-in-law fell ill and needed surgery, but they couldn’t even scrape together a few thousand yuan.”

“When I visited them yesterday, the couple was arguing, and his wife was crying a flood of tears. Thankfully, aside from the house, I had prepared fifty thousand yuan, otherwise his father-in-law wouldn’t be able to receive surgery and could only await death.”

Su Hongying felt that Lu Jiaxin was very thorough in her arrangements, and that in the future, bodyguards would protect her just like Gu Wenfeng did. Even if she lost her life, she would ensure that her family would have no worries.

Xie Kaixiao sighed and said, “Our country is still too poor, otherwise we would definitely be able to properly settle these injured soldiers and their orphaned children.”

The current state of the nation’s poverty was one aspect, but another was the decay of public morals. Like the woman who sent a telegram asking for money, speaking rudely when she didn’t get it. Such degenerates could chill someone to the bone, even if just encountering one.

After discussing the donation of medical equipment, they moved onto the economic situation in the Mainland and the international landscape. Jiaxin had no comment on the Mainland’s economy, but she still knew something about the general direction of international economic development.

In the past, whenever these macro topics came up, Jiaxin would become so nervous, but now she had grown steady. Three years of university studies had not been in vain, plus having a financial expert at her side meant she was no longer intimidated.

Seeing that she couldn’t join the conversation, Su Hongying went to prepare lunch. This time, Su Heyuan also donated ten million Hong Kong Dollars for medical equipment, making her feel particularly proud. She had endured a lot when she first married into the family, but now that her two nephews had made something of themselves, these people began to butter her up. Some shameless ones, who earlier looked down on Heyuan and Heming, now wanted to introduce their nieces from their maternal families to them. It was laughable, how could she be interested in such opportunists?

The two had chatted so engrossedly that they lost track of time until Su Hongying came to call them for lunch.

Xie Kaixiao had a meeting at two in the afternoon, one he couldn’t excuse himself from, otherwise he would have liked to continue the conversation with Jiaxin after lunch.

Su Hongying walked Jiaxin to the gate of the compound and, holding her hand, said, “When Heyuan gets married, you must come back.”

Jiaxin tactfully declined, “I will definitely attend Brother Yuan’s wedding in Hong Kong, but I can’t be sure about this side. If work is busy, I may not be able to get away.”

Since she had taken a long leave of absence and wasn’t going back to school, she would surely need to manage the company.

Su Hongying, somewhat reluctant to part, said, “Who knows when we’ll see each other again?”

“There’ll be an opportunity,” Jiaxin replied.

Once Gu Xiuxiu was back in Hong Kong, even if Jiaxin visited the Mainland for leisure, she wouldn’t come back here specifically without a pressing matter. However, Hongjun was getting older, and he had a family which was not exactly trouble-free by his side, so she would inevitably come back, though not frequently.

When she got home, Jiaxin called Gu Wenfeng to tell him she had secured a job at Capital Hospital for Miao Jinhua, “Once Uncle Xie arranges everything, your sister-in-law can start working.”

Wenfeng was surprised and then said, “Jiaxin, how can we accept this? Jiaxin, we can’t take this job.”

Jiaxin had anticipated his reaction, “First, the two million Hong Kong Dollars you used to buy the medicine was a designated donation and has nothing to do with Capital Hospital; second, the job is for your sister-in-law, not you.”

She paused, then added, “If your sister-in-law also refuses, I will have my family’s relatives take it.”
