Chapter 324 - 324: Small Medical Hall



Madam Zhou was surprised. She felt that Su Binglan had just built a tofu factory but already wanted to build an embroidery shop. She thought Su Binglan had been too busy.

Su Binglan was too capable and made one’s heart ache.

“Yes, Aunt Zhou, I plan to build an embroidery shop so that many people in our village who can’t handle physical work can work there,” Su Binglan explained.

Madam Zhou sighed inwardly. “You’re always thinking for others.”

She could tell that Su Binglan was in a hurry to build an embroidery shop mainly because she was thinking about the villagers. If it weren’t for Su Binglan, Su Teng village would not have undergone such a huge change.

“You should take care of yourself too. You’re still young, so don’t tire yourself out.”

Su Binglan knew Madam Zhou’s heart ached for her. “Don’t worry, Aunt Zhou,” she explained smilingly, “I’ll hire people to work when the shop is complete. I won’t be tired. I had the wool washed and dried, so I can’t leave it there. I want to use wool to make clothes.”

There are also some handicrafts and others. When the embroidery shop made them, they’ll have a vast market.

However, Madam Zhou did not know how to embroider. “I don’t understand what you’re saying, but your Aunt Ding Wan is excellent at embroidering. The things she embroiders are lovely. Her embroidering skills are passed down from her ancestors and not to outsiders.”

“I’ve told my aunt that she’ll be helping me look after the embroidery shop after she has recovered,” Su Binglan said.

Madam Zhou thought for a moment and clapped. “That’s right. Ding Wan is the most suitable person to do this. You can ask her to help you look after the embroidery shop. She’ll be thrilled.”

Madam Zhou also did not inquire about the embroidery shop. However, she thought of something and asked, “Also, I heard you’ll take half a day every week to give free consultations to the villagers?

Su Binglan nodded, “Yes, our village is free of charge, but the cost of medicine is separate. However, everyone can take the prescription I give them to town to get medicine, or you can get medicine from Wenxiu.

“Everyone is free to do as they please, but the people from other villages will have to pay the consultation fee.”

“Everyone is grateful to you, Binglan,” Madam Zhou’s eldest daughter-in-law said lowly.

“That’s true. The people from other villages are envious of our village,” Madam Zhou said.

“Now, the people from other villages want to become a part of our village,” Madam Zhou’s eldest daughter-in-law said smilingly, “Two days ago, someone came to ask about Xueye and wanted to find him a good match.”

“Xueye is only fourteen years old, so he’s too young to get married,” Madam Zhou said seriously.

“That’s right. I told you I’m still early in my studies, and I’m also devoted to them. I didn’t think about these things.”

Madam Zhou looked at Su Wenxiu. “Wenxiu, someone must’ve spoken to your mother, but she respected you, so she probably didn’t tell you about it.” “Aunt Zhou,” Su Wenxiu said shyly, lowering his head.

Madam Zhou smiled. “I know you’re studying medicine now. You have your ideas, just like your sister. Don’t worry. Your mother said she would respect your opinions.”

“Yes. ”

“By the way, Aunt Zhou, I’m here to ask my uncle and Xueye to help me renovate my old house into a small medical hall,” Su Binglan said, “This way, it’ll be more convenient for everyone to come and see Wenxiu for consultations.”

She wanted to sav “small clinic,” but her uncle and the others probably would

not understand. That was why she said it was a medical hall instead.

Su Zhengde immediately understood. “Don’t worry, Binglan. I’ll send some people to renovate the old house tomorrow morning.”

Su Binglan took out the blueprint and showed it to Su Zhengde. “Uncle Zhengde, just make it like this.”

Su Zhengde quickly knew what to do. “I understand that it’s simple. We’ll make minor changes if we don’t need to rebuild it. We’ll have enough time in the morning.”

Su Xueye was curious and came over to look at the blueprint. “Aunt Binglan, is this the blueprint for the small medical hall you were talking about?”

Su Binglan noticed his interest and explained, “There are three rooms, one stove, and two brick beds in that house. We should leave the stove and one brick bed in there.

“There’s a brick platform and a bed in this room. We can use that as a resting place or an operating room. Let’s turn that room into a hall where we can receive patients.

“Then, let’s put a few stools in the yard so that everyone can sit there and line up to rest. We’ll do it this way first and renovate it again later. We can also turn the courtyard into a hall and…” Su Binglan explained to Su Xueye in detail what everything would look like after the transformation.

“That’s right. It’s much simpler and more convenient than the Hundred Herbs Hospital in town. Everyone has a place to rest,” Su Xueye sighed.

Su Wenxiu added, “If there are too many people in Hundred Herbs Hospital, no one will have a place to rest. They’ll have to wait outside.

“Many people will faint when the weather gets hot during the summer, and it’ll get too cold during the winter. That i s why it’s better to renovate our house like this, right, Little Sister?”

After discussing things, Su Binglan and Su Wenxiu went home. Su Zhengde brought Su Xueye and a few other workers to the renovation site the following day. If many people worked together, a simple modification would be swift.

So after lunch, Su Binglan hung a sign at the old house’s door that read “Su Family Clinic.” Many people lined up at the entrance when the place opened in the afternoon.

Everyone greeted Su Binglan enthusiastically. They also carried baskets in their hands with gifts inside. Some filled their baskets with wild vegetables,

homemade food, and eggs.

“Everyone, bring back what you brought. I’m not taking anything,” Su Binglan said. She was serious about it. She felt that perhaps everyone felt terrible for receiving free treatment, so they brought her some things.

However, others who did not bring her gifts would feel embarrassed. For the villagers, a basket of wild vegetables could last several days. That was why Su Binglan was earnest. She would not accept anything from the villagers, no matter what.

Since Su Binglan did not accept gifts, many people sighed in relief. Some mustered their courage to come for a consultation, afraid others would criticize them if they did not bring enough gifts.

Still, Su Binglan did not accept anything from anyone, so there was no comparison. It would also make them feel better.

Everyone was very nervous, but Su Binglan and Su Wenxiu sat inside, so they gave each person a number plate. The villagers only entered after the Su siblings called their number.

The first person was a woman from the village who had brought in her daughter. “Miss Su, my daughter has been eating bad food for the past two days. She said her stomach hurts.”

Su Binglan looked at the woman and said, “She ate something that went bad, so I’ll just prescribe some medicine, and she’ll be fine.”

Then she gave the woman a prescription. The woman held the prescription and asked carefully, “Miss Su, how much does it cost to get the medicine? The woman Imew the medicinal herbs in town were costly but did not know how much exactly. She even wondered if she needed to pool together some money to buy the medicine.

“I don’t know how much it’ll cost in town,” Su Binglan said, “But if you buy it from me, it’s five copper coins per dose.”

Everyone was shocked when Su Binglan said five copper coins.

“Five copper coins for one dose? Miss Su, I… Did you misspeak?” The woman’s hand that was holding the prescription trembled.

“I’ve never heard of medicine being so cheap.”

The villagers had gone to get medicine from doctors, but one dose would typically cost at least a few hundred copper coins..
