Chapter 382 Helping Baiyun
After Su Nuannuan finished speaking, she stopped paying attention to the matter.

What interested her during this period was a Miao girl named Baiyun in the training class.

Bai Yun was the girl Su Nuannuan thought had done quite well on the exam when she was grading papers.

She's only sixteen years old, but she has a great talent for medicine. Her only drawback is that she grew up in the mountains and never went to school.

She ranked first in this monthly exam.

After the exam, Su Nuannuan paid special attention to Bai Yun when she returned to class.

Su Nuannuan discovered that she was a very hardworking and ambitious girl. Every day she wore a blue outfit and would start reading as soon as she arrived at the classroom.

Li Mi noticed Su Nuannuan observing the white clouds.

He smiled and said to Su Nuannuan.

"This girl is quite good. She's talented and ambitious, but her family isn't well-off."

Li Mi's words caught Su Nuannuan's attention. Su Nuannuan looked up and asked in confusion.

"Did her parents mistreat her?"

Li Mi shook his head and said.

"No. Her parents treat her very well. However, her father broke his leg last year and didn't come to the hospital for treatment, so he's now lame. Her mother is in poor health and has to take medicine every day. The worst part is that she has a newborn brother. Baiyun was able to come here this time because her father asked her aunt in the county town to take her in."

Su Nuannuan sighed.

Baiyun's life was indeed tough. A lame father, a sickly mother, a breastfeeding younger brother, and herself, who worked so hard.

Su Nuannuan could guess that her family had probably placed all their hopes on Baiyun.

Even if Su Nuannuan suffered greatly in her previous life, it was never as tragic as Bai Yun's.

Looking at the slender figures studying in the classroom, Su Nuannuan said to Li Mi.

"Brother Li, do you need any help at the hospital? Let Baiyun learn from me."

Li Mi was very happy to hear Su Nuannuan's words.

"Yes, she needs it! It's her good fortune that you can take her with you."

Su Nuannuan smiled and didn't say anything more.

Su Nuannuan's main goal was to have Baiyun stay by her side and learn more so that she could better pass the barefoot doctor exam.

In the end, even if Baiyun doesn't become a doctor at the clinic, she can still make a living by treating patients with her medical skills.

Although this is somewhat unfair to the other students, Su Nuannuan has taken a liking to Bai Yun.

Su Nuannuan was able to help Bai Yun for two reasons. First, Bai Yun's medical talent was truly exceptional; her only flaw was that she had never received formal education, which was a great pity. Second, Bai Yun was pitiful, which made Su Nuannuan want to help her.

During lunch, Su Nuannuan told Chu Mingzhou about this.

Chu Mingzhou smiled and said.

"If you want to do it, then do it."

Su Nuannuan smiled and nodded.

After finishing her afternoon classes, Su Nuannuan said this before leaving the classroom.

"Baiyun, please stay for a moment."

Bai Yun looked up, somewhat bewildered, when she heard Su Nuannuan call her name.

Su Nuannuan has a very good temper and is very serious and responsible in her teaching. Many students in the training class like her. Bai Yun is no exception.

She didn't know why Su Nuannuan wanted to keep her.

After everyone in the classroom had left, Bai Yun came to Su Nuannuan's side.

She asked somewhat timidly.

"Teacher Su, what can I do for you?"

Su Nuannuan looked up at the thin, sallow-faced girl. She smiled gently and said...

"Don't be afraid. I'm here to ask for your help."

Bai Yun was puzzled, wondering what Su Nuannuan needed her help with. However, if she could really help, Bai Yun would be very willing.

She had heard about Su Nuannuan's previous trip to Xiapo Commune to help with the rescue efforts.

In her eyes, Su Nuannuan was a very good person.

Seeing the girl's puzzled look, Su Nuannuan smiled and continued.

"I need to help out at the hospital for a while. Would you like to study with me after class?" The training course wasn't intensive; classes started at nine in the morning and ended at four in the afternoon. So, the daily training time wasn't very long.

Before Bai Yun could speak, Su Nuannuan continued, "..."

"When I go to the doctor, you can be my assistant. However, there will be no salary, but meals will be provided."

Baiyun's eyes lit up.

She hadn't even considered refusing in the first place. Now that she heard meals would be provided, Baiyun was even happier.

She eagerly agreed.

"I'm willing! Thank you, Teacher Su."

Su Nuannuan smiled and said.

"That's fine. Starting tomorrow, it will run from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m., and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. The schedule should be okay, right?"

The white clouds nodded.

that is really good!
Baiyun never expected that luck would fall on her.

At this moment, Baiyun had no idea that Su Nuannuan had deliberately made up an excuse to help her.

On the way back to her aunt's house, Baiyun skipped and hopped.

Upon returning to her aunt's house, listening to the laughter and chatter inside, Baiyun consciously slowed her pace. Her aunt's family wasn't bad to her, but they weren't exactly kind either.

Every time they ate, they would avoid her. Baiyun was also very tactful and only ate the dried wild vegetable pancakes she had brought.

Her aunt and father didn't get along. She was only staying at her aunt's house because her father had begged her to. She didn't like staying at her aunt's either. But, not wanting her father's good intentions to be wasted, Baiyun insisted on staying.

Except for coming back to sleep every day, Baiyun no longer stays at her aunt's house.

Lying on the hard, cold bed, Bai Yun thought of what Su Nuannuan had said to her that day, and happily ignored her hunger.

On the other side, just after Bai Yun left, Li Mi walked in from outside.

He was happy that Su Nuannuan had taken a liking to Bai Yun. However, he still reminded her, "..."

"Nuan Nuan, the hospital never said they would provide meals."

Su Nuannuan smiled and said.

"It's not the hospital that provides meals, it's me who provides them."

Li Mi was somewhat surprised and asked.

"Does Teacher Chu agree?"

You know, these days, a half-grown boy can eat his father out of house and home. Although Baiyun is a skinny little girl, she eats quite a lot of food every day at Su Nuannuan's house.

For an ordinary person, this is certainly not guaranteed. However, Su Nuannuan is an exception.

Su Nuannuan raised an eyebrow and said.

"Don't worry. Teacher Chu will agree."

Li Mi gave a knowing smile, and then said nothing more.

When Su Nuannuan returned, she told Chu Mingzhou about it.

Worried that Chu Mingzhou might overthink things, Su Nuannuan added.

“I didn’t originally intend to do this. But Baiyun is so pitiful. At noon, she only ate two wild vegetable pancakes. Her stomach was growling when she was talking to me. I heard from Brother Li that she lives at her aunt’s house. I guess this child is not getting enough to eat every day.”

Chu Mingzhou nodded and said.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you want."

Chu Mingzhou had no objections. He was completely in favor of Su Nuannuan, as long as she was willing.

"I'll set up a stove at the door tomorrow."

This is a dormitory, and there is no kitchen.

Su Nuannuan and Chu Mingzhou ate either at the hospital cafeteria or at a state-run restaurant every day.

Su Nuannuan thought about how they would be spending the New Year here. She knew the canteen and state-run restaurants would be closed, so they would have to set up their own stove.

After thinking it over, Su Nuannuan nodded and said.

"Okay, you handle it."
