Chapter 130: The Young Lady of Kyoto
"Dr. Yu, don’t you think you’re taking it too lightly?" Tong Yao laughed, evidently dissatisfied with Yu Shiya’s handling of the situation. "My clothes are worth two hundred yuan, and Qian Niannian deliberately destroyed them."
The crowd: ...
"Dr. Si is really generous, buying Tong Yao a set of clothes worth 200 yuan when his salary is just one hundred yuan a month! He has accumulated so much money within a year of employment?"
"Who knows? Maybe he’s been making some extra money on the side."
It’s strictly forbidden for doctors to receive red envelopes yet, some people still engage in it privately, it’s just that it hasn’t been exposed.
It is said that after Tong Yao moved to the staff quarters, she had added quite a lot of valuable furniture. She had either fish or meat for every meal and was living like an emperor. Although everyone didn’t talk about where the money came from, there was a lot of discussion behind her back.
"And what do you propose?" Yu Shiya was somewhat displeased by Tong Yao’s aggressive stance. "Your clothes were just thrown away, they weren’t damaged. It would be unfair for Qian Niannian to compensate you. How about having Qian Niannian wash your clothes?"
When Qian Niannian heard that the clothes were worth two hundred yuan, her face instantly turned pale. Her monthly wage was less than thirty yuan. It would take her a long time to save up for such an expensive piece of clothing. This wasn’t about money; it was about her life.
