He had practiced medicine for half his life and had never seen a young girl with any medical skills to speak of. She might as well go into nursing.
The patient that the Mo family had sent was so badly injured that the hospital was worried that something might go wrong, so he had been asked to go into the operating theater, just in case.
And witnessed Gu Qingyao’s surgical skills.
She was so incredible and so talented. She was so young. She was a genius!
Gu Qingyao smiled humbly. “You think too highly of me. I have spent many years studying medicine, but I don’t intend to work right now. I’m sorry.”
“Oh…” Dr Zhang was shocked. At that time, many people dreamt of having a steady job. It was considered to be very prestigious and a symbol of one’s status and power!
This was his first time encountering someone who was not willing to work.
“This… Dr Gu, will you reconsider? I will certainly ask the hospital to give you the best possible treatment. Oh, and your medical skills are so good; why haven’t we heard of you?”
She was incredibly talented. She should be very famous in medical circles.
Dr Zhang was also very outstanding in this field. He had heard of almost all the outstanding doctors, but he really did not know who Gu Qingyao was.
Gu Qingyao smiled. “I was seldom in the capital before this. I was one of the first batch of students that China permitted to study overseas. I studied medicine for six years overseas and only returned last year.
“The elders in my family are all doctors, so I learnt from them since I was a young girl. Later on… the famous Jiangnan physician, Jiang Yiru, taught me.”
Everyone in the medical world had heard of Jiang Yiru.
Dr Zhang grew even more excited when he heard that Gu Qingyao was Jiang Yiru’s student. He was even more eager to get Gu Qingyao to work in the hospital. But Mo Beihan stopped him, so Dr Zhang did not dare to say anything else.
No one dared to offend the master of the Mo family.
“Well… all right then! But Mrs Mo, your medical skills are amazing. If you were not here today, we would not have been able to save that young girl. We could only watch her die. If we encounter difficulties in the future, can we ask for your help?”
Gu Qingyao smiled. “Sure. Although I’m not going to work regularly, I will still remain active in the medical circle.”
They exchanged a few more words before Mo Beihan forbade them from disturbing Gu Qingyao further. She had been operating for a few hours. She needed to rest.
Chen Qingqing had no money to pay the medical bills, so Mo Beihan paid for Zhong Bingyuan’s hospital bills.
In the hospital room, Chen Qingqing was looking at Gu Qingyao gratefully. “Older Sister Gu, thank you. How fortunate that we met you today.”
She had heard Dr Zhang’s words. If they had not met Gu Qingyao, even if they had the money to pay the hospital, the doctors here would not be able to save Yuan Yuan either.
But Chen Qingqing never doubted Gu Qingyao’s abilities. Gu Qingyao had gone overseas to study when she was 18 years old. This was no secret in the Qing River Brigade, so Chen Qingqing knew about it too.
Since childhood, she had the habit of assuming that Gu Qingyao was omnipotent.
Mo Beihan had already explained matters to Gu Qingyao. Gu Qingyao sighed and asked, “Why didn’t you look for us when you reached the capital? If you had gone to Brother Beihan’s uncle, you could have found my mother-in-law’s address.”
The Southern Lake Brigade and the Qing River Brigade were neighbors. Although Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao had been in the capital for so many years and had not returned, they continued to keep in touch with the people back home.
Jiang Yingqiu was still the Southern Lake Brigade Leader, Jiang Feng’s sister. Jiang Feng was Mo Beihan’s uncle.. He had remained at home all these years because of Old Madam Jiang, but they still wrote to each other.
