54 I Make Money From Medicine đłređ˛đ eđnđźvđ˛l.cđ¨đŚ
Her mother was still fine and listened to her. It was just that her father was a little too filial. He always felt he should listen to everything Li Hai said since she was the mother of the children.
However, Li Hai did not only have one son. She had three, and it was obvious that she disliked her husband the most. However, the father thought little of it and continued to give in foolishly.
Xia Chen didnât return with Xia Hai until it was dark.
Seeing the fatigue on her fatherâs face, Xia Wan asked, âDad, what did you do?â
I think our familyâs in a tough spot now. I couldnât even afford to treat you when you were sick,â Xia Hai said with a smile. âSo, I thought I should make more while I still have the energy. I ran into a part-time job offering 50 yuan a month, and I immediately accepted it.â
Xia Wanâs heart ached when she heard these words. Her father had worked so hard and given so much for their family.
âDad, donât tire yourself out. I can earn money, but I donât need to break my back for it. In fact, I earn more than you. So, dad, can you stop working in the future?â
Although his parents were not that old, they still had to work in the fields and the factory. It was all physical labor that would drain them of whatever remaining life they had!
Since she was reborn and had medical skills, how could she let her family suffer such grievances?
She wanted her parents to live a healthy life, and it would be best if they could live to a hundred years old. She wanted to protect her family and not let them get hurt.
Seeing Xia Wanâs grave expression, Xia Hai was a little stunned. He scratched his head and said, âI think itâs okay. Donât worry. Iâm not that tired. Besides, this job doesnât always require any labor, not to mention that I might not have any work after two months.â
Xia Wanâs tone was firm. âNo, Dad, you really canât do this job.â
Xia Wan pursed her lips. She didnât plan to tell her parents about her medical skills so soon, but now that her father insisted on working part-time, she had no choice but to tell them in advance.
Xia Wan said, âDad, I actually went to town to find a job today. I used to learn medical skills from Grandpa. It just so happens that the daughter of a rich family in town I know is sick. The illness is the same as what Grandpa told me before. I know how to cure her. Once I cure her, I can get a reward of 1000 yuan. You canât even earn this after working a few months, Dad.
âSo, Dad, I really hope that you donât work part-time anymore. You can punch above your weight while youâre still young, but as you get older, youâll be the one suffering from all kinds of diseases.
âBesides, my brother and I will have our own families in the future. You and Mom will have to help us look after them. Do you want to tire yourself out so early that you donât even have the ability to take care of your grandchildren?â
Before Xia Wan said this, Xia Hai did not realize the problems he would face when he grew old. He only thought that his two sons were going to get married in the future, so he had to buy a house for them. Although Xia Wan was a girl, when she married in the future, he would have to give a large dowry. If that didnât happen, she would be looked down upon by the other party.
However, after hearing Xia Wanâs words, Xia Hai felt that his daughter was capable and could make a living with her medical skills. On the other hand, he felt inferior. He was the father of several children and should take up the responsibility of the family, but now he had to put such an important task on Xia Wan.
As he looked at Xia Wan, Xia Haiâs eyes were filled with guilt. âWanwan, itâs all my fault. If I had learned your grandfatherâs medical skills, I might have been able to give you a better life.â
Xia Wan smiled. âDad, I can learn medicine because I inherited it from you and Mom. You two were smart, to begin with.â
Xia Wan thought to herself, âItâs a good thing Dad didnât learn medicine. Otherwise, with his personality, he would spend all the money he earns on Li Hai and the other two families. He might as well not make any money.â
Why was it their family that had to work so hard while the other two families got all the benefits?
