Chapter 473: Chapter 473 This Person Is Too Selfish Chapter 473: Chapter 473 This Person Is Too Selfish Luo Qiao was sowhat angry upon hearing this, “Grandma Zhang, your words aren’t right. You make it sound like we are so reluctant to save others by saying to forgive her since she wanted to save soone.
There’s nothing wrong with her wanting to do good, but she shouldn’t expect us to be her stepping stone. We bear the consequences if things go bad, and she receives all the credit if things turn out well. We are discussing an apology here, but the words she says don’t seem like an apology at all.
Anyone listening would think we’re unwilling to save lives. Grandma Zhang really has a way with words, far better than Old Lady Wu’s blunt nature.”
Old Lady Zhang wanted to say more, but she heard Zhou Guifang speaking, “Auntie Zhang, I’m going to cook, you all should go back. In the future, if your daughter-in-law wants to do a good deed, she should take the initiative herself and not make decisions for others.”
After saying that, she turned and entered the kitchen.
Luo Qiao nodded at Old Lady Zhang and also turned to enter the kitchen.
Luo Qiao also knew that her grandmother was displacing her anger onto Zhang Family’s daughter-in-law, but one couldn’t bla Grandma for being so discourteous, considering the daughter-in-law of the Zhang Family was well aware of Old Lady Wu’s character and still ca to them for help.
It feels awkward not to help when called upon, not to ntion having to live as neighbors in the future. Besides, there’s a health clinic not far from here.
It’s because Old Lady Wu didn’t trust the clinic staff that she insisted on having her family push her grandson on a cart to the military hospital three stations away, which Zhang Family’s daughter-in-law knew very well, yet she still ca to Luo Family to ask for help. What she was thinking, only she knew.
Actually, Zhang Family’s daughter-in-law had sothing she wanted from the injured child’s uncle, so she sought to make a good impression, never expecting Old Lady Wu to be so unreasonable regardless of the situation or reason.
Zhang Family’s youngest son had worked for two years without becoming a regular employee, and they had just found out that Wu Bing’s uncle worked in the personnel departnt of the factory, so they thought to use that connection to help him gain permanent status.
Therefore, she ca to Luo Qiao because she had heard about Luo Qiao’s excellent dical skills. If Luo Qiao could help treat Wu Bing successfully, she would have a chance to bring up her husband’s issue, so she didn’t think twice about it.
In fact, she didn’t expect the situation to turn out this way, but Auntie Luo imdiately said it was her who had gone to the Luo Family to ask for help. Whether her husband’s affair could be managed was one thing, but she feared that even the neighbors’ perception of her might be affected.
If it had been any other family today, everyone would think of her as a helpful person, but with the Wu Family, they would suspect she had ulterior motives.
Luo Daoren then said, “Auntie Zhang, our Qiaoqiao might still be young and impulsive. And after all, her expertise is limited to acupuncture. You know what Old Lady Wu is like.
Your daughter-in-law, bypassing the nearby clinic and coming to our house to find Qiaoqiao, was rather inappropriate. If sothing were to happen to Wu Bing, and Wu Family ca knocking at our door, would Zhang Family be responsible?
Not to ntion, I’ve heard that Qiaoqiao was almost pushed over by Old Lady Wu. It’s not that we don’t want to help, but every parent cares about their own child. We’re not afraid to help, but we fear it might end up doing more harm than good. What do you say?”
Zhang Family’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were extrely embarrassed. Old Lady Zhang said, “About today’s incident, my daughter-in-law indeed did not consider it thoroughly enough. We are truly sorry.”
Luo Qiao found them botherso and ca out to say, “Grandma Zhang, it’s getting late. Go back and cook. After all, what happened today isn’t such a big deal, but if sothing serious had actually occurred, an apology would have been useless.
I just overheard people saying that Grandma Wu doesn’t even trust the certified doctors at the clinic and insists on taking her grandson to the military hospital. Considering this, Auntie Zhang, why co looking for ?
You probably have your own plans, don’t you? Helping others is a good thing, but when personal gains are involved, it’s not so noble, especially when you’re using as a stepping stone.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Family’s daughter-in-law’s face turned beet red.
Luo Qiao continued, “Besides, your coming to today, frankly, is already a difficult request. If I didn’t go, our Luo Family would be criticized by the neighbors for not being human, for not lending a hand when needed.
But how old am I? I don’t even have a dical practice license yet. If sothing had really happened, what then? And since you’ve been here, Auntie Zhang hasn’t even uttered an apology, which probably ans you don’t think you’ve done anything wrong, right?”
The reason why Luo Qiao has a disdain for Zhang Family’s daughter-in-law is because she overheard people saying that Wu Bing’s uncle and Zhang Family’s youngest son work in the sa factory.
Wu Bing’s uncle works in the human resources departnt, and soone even whispered that she surely aid to curry favor for her husband’s promotion by seeking help from the Luo Family.
Initially, Luo Qiao had thought her intentions were purely out of kind-heartedness, feeling slightly upset but not overly concerned. However, once she pieced together the whole story, it beca clear to her just how selfish this person was.
