"Second Brother, when did you start wanting to become a doctor?"
On the way back, Xu Nianhua looked at Xu Nian’an with curious eyes. Earlier at the Du Family’s, Xu Nian’an had volunteered himself, which really startled her. She truly had no idea that Second Brother aspired to be a doctor.
"Being a doctor is pretty good," Xu Nian’an said, his eyes cast downward. The last time he saw his younger sister unconscious and burning with fever, it really scared him.
Beyond feeling helpless, there was nothing he could do.
At that moment, Xu Nian’an thought about becoming a doctor in the future.
But later, as he started doing business with his younger sister, he also felt that doing business was quite good. As long as one was willing to work hard, money was surely to be made.
The words of Doctor Du today suddenly made Xu Nian’an want to give it a try. If he really had the talent for being a doctor, then he would become one. If not, then he would just go to college with peace of mind and then earn money through business.
"Doctors do earn a lot of money and, moreover, saving lives and helping the injured is being a guardian of life, which is worthy of respect." Xu Nianhua had immense respect for doctors. If it had not been for those kind-hearted doctors who had pulled her back from the brink, where would her brilliant life have come from?
Originally, Xu Nian’an only wanted to give it a try, but upon hearing Xu Nianhua’s words, he instantly felt that the profession carried a very serious responsibility, and he began to yearn for it even more.
"Little Sister, if, if I really have the talent, I will become a doctor in the future." A doctor who cures diseases and saves people.
He didn’t want to feel as powerless as before, being completely unable to do anything when a family member was ill, apart from feeling helpless.
"Second Brother, I support you," Xu Nianhua said with a smile, then immediately thought that becoming a doctor wouldn’t be so easy and added, "Even if you don’t get into medical school, it doesn’t matter. We can start our own business and earn a lot of money just the same."
"Aren’t you afraid we’ll lose money in our business?" Xu Nian’an was somewhat speechless at his little sister’s consolation.
She had just been fully confident in supporting him in becoming a doctor.
And in the blink of an eye, she was worried he might not get into medical school and had already thought of a backup plan.
"When have you ever seen us lose money in business?" Xu Nianhua straightened her back, speaking confidently, her eyes sparkling.
"Eh, Nianhua, where’s the sweater you were knitting the other day?" Ji Ying was folding clothes in Xu Nianhua’s room when she realized the sweater that Xu Nianhua had secretly been knitting seemed to be gone.
"I gave it away," Xu Nianhua responded, pulling her jacket closer. Today’s weather was good; she planned to take an early shower and then go to school for the evening classes.
Ji Ying muttered to herself, not noticing Xu Qinghe showing it off.
"To Brother Cheng, Pei Yicheng," Xu Nianhua answered without overthinking. "Remember, he gave us quite a few exam papers and books last time? I saw that he really liked the sweater I made for Second Brother, so I knitted one for him, too."
"You..." Ji Ying’s lips moved as if to say something but, seeing Xu Nianhua’s oblivious demeanor, she felt her concern was superfluous.
"What’s wrong? Can’t I give it away?" Xu Nianhua belatedly realized there might be an issue.
Ji Ying pulled Xu Nianhua to sit on the bed and cautiously spoke, "It’s not that you can’t give it, but usually, sweaters are given to family members, you understand?"
"But, I think of him as..." a pitiful young man.
Xu Nianhua hesitated, then said, "Just like Big Brother and Second Brother. Moreover, he has helped us so much, a sweater might not be expensive, but it’s filled with sincerity. Most importantly, it’s warm and practical, so I didn’t think too much about
