TFWYH – Chapter 288 Pure Gold Cotton-padded Jacket

Doctor Li hadn’t expected Tang Wan to come by. When he opened the door and saw her, he was momentarily stunned.

“Long time no see!” Tang Wan greeted him politely with a nod.

“It’s you!” Doctor Li exclaimed cheerfully, quickly inviting her inside. “Come in, come in! Ah… sorry about the mess in the courtyard, don’t mind it!”

Tang Wan stepped inside. The small courtyard was filled with drying medicinal herbs.

In one corner were tools for grinding medicine, and nearby lay a medical book, showing that Doctor Li had just been preparing medicines.

Doctor Li sighed: “I didn’t expect you to come. Last time I wanted you to come for a consultation, but I had a falling out with the boss, so I’m no longer at Jimin Clinic.”

Tang Wan withdrew her gaze and casually asked, “Why the falling out?”

At the mention of this, Doctor Li let out a long sigh and explained in detail.

It turned out that Jimin Clinic belonged to the Pan family.

The current head, Pan Quan, was very different from his father. Cunning and unscrupulous, he had cut corners and used substandard medicinal materials.

Doctor Li couldn’t stand it and confronted him.

As a result, Pan Quan fired him!

Shaking his head, Doctor Li said: “I’ve been at Jimin Clinic since I was twenty, over thirty years in total. The old master was excellent and very kind. But I never expected his son to be like this. If Jimin Clinic continues under him, trouble is inevitable!”

Tang Wan wasn’t interested in whether the Pan family would face trouble. She had come to see Doctor Li for another reason: “So what will you do now?”

“I’ll manage somehow!” Doctor Li chuckled. “Neighbors occasionally come by for colds or minor injuries. I can still earn some money—I won’t starve.”

Tang Wan then asked, “I’m planning to open a clinic. Would you like to help me?”

Doctor Li was stunned: “You’re opening a clinic?”

“Yes!” Tang Wan nodded. “You’re kind and honest. If you help me, you’ll manage it. I’ll be busy and don’t have time to oversee everything.”

Doctor Li laughed: “Sure! I don’t have anything else to do anyway. Where will you open it?”

Tang Wan immediately took out 3,000 taels of silver notes and handed them to him. “Pick the location, handle the renovations, hire staff, stock the medicines—you manage it all. Here’s the money!”

“Ha ha…” Doctor Li took the notes and teased, “Aren’t you afraid I’ll take your money and run?”

Tang Wan said seriously, “Not afraid!” Try it and I’ll beat you up!

“Alright!” Doctor Li laughed and nodded. “Just for that, I’m in. I’ll go check out a place tomorrow, and once I find one, I’ll come to you!”

“Mm!” Tang Wan agreed, then discussed some details with Doctor Li before leaving.

After stepping out of the Li residence, Tang Wan counted her money and felt speechless.

Her money disappeared so fast—it hadn’t lasted long at all.

Looks like she’d have to find a “big spender”… no, a wealthy seriously ill patient to make some money!

Wait… that’s not right!

She still had another way to earn money!

Thinking of this, Tang Wan went to the Su residence.

The gatekeepers recognized her immediately and respectfully let her in.

Su Qing was overjoyed to see her, chatting animatedly and even inviting her to stay for a meal.

Master Huang was also very pleased, teasing her constantly.

He thought Tang Wan, who usually kept a straight face, looked adorable when she occasionally showed a simple, naive expression.

Tang Wan didn’t refuse. She shamelessly stayed and went along with Master Huang’s teasing.

There was no choice—the old man had high status and couldn’t be offended.

After finishing the meal, Tang Wan said, “Mother, I have something to discuss with you. Is this a good time?”

“Of course, come with me!” Su Qing immediately led Tang Wan to her courtyard.

After sending away the attendants, Su Qing asked, “What is it that you want to tell me? Has someone bullied you?”
