Li Changjiang pondered for a moment and confidently said, “Yes, I can do it. However, 1 need to experiment a few times. During the paper-making process, 1 will add certain materials that affect the stiffness of the paper. I’ll produce the paper first, and then you can decide if it meets your needs.”

Different stiffnesses of paper? Truly remarkable. Chu Qingzhi was impressed, “Alright, list whatever materials you need, and I’ll arrange for someone to purchase them.”

Li Changjiang nodded. “Okay.”

At the Li Family Porcelain Workshop.

Li Wenyu, with her hair tied in two braids, bounced into the workshop and approached Chu Qingshuang, “Sister Qingshuang, Master Li is looking for you.”

Chu Qingshuang was a bit puzzled, “Why is Master looking for me?”

Li Wenyu shrugged, “I don’t know.”

Chu Qingshuang smiled, “Thanks.” She washed her hands and headed to the room where Li Zhenzong usually worked.

“Master, you called for me?”

Li Zhenzong looked at his disciple, his eyes immediately becoming gentle and kind, “Sit down, well talk slowly.”

Chu Qingshuang sat on the chair, feeling a little uneasy. Could she have made a mistake?

“Master, what’s the matter? I’m nervous.”

Li Zhenzong smiled. “Don’t be nervous. It’s a good thing. I’m asking you, are you confident in your ability to make porcelain?”

“Yes,” Chu Qingshuang said without hesitation. “I’m not good at anything else, but I definitely have no problem making porcelain.”

Li Zhenzong also had great confidence in his disciple, “There’s a porcelain contest in the capital, and 1 want you and a few of your senior brothers to participate.”

A porcelain contest in the capital? Chu Qingshuang thought to herself, so Yan Yanrong didn’t lie to her, “Sure, 1 was planning to go to the capital anyway.”

Li Zhenzong was surprised, “You’re going to the capital? What for?”

Chu Qingshuang’s eyes gleamed with joy, “My second sister is getting married. I’m going to the capital for the wedding.”

“Your second sister is marrying into a family in the capital?”

“Yes, my second brother-in-law is really nice. He will cto pick us up on the tenth of September, and then our whole family will go there.”

Li Zhenzong commented, “It’s good that your second brother-in-law will cto fetch you.”

He thought for a moment and then said, “The porcelain contest is on the eleventh of September. First, go with your family to the capital, and when it’s tfor the competition, cand find us.”

“Okay.”

“Get back to work, and also think about what porcelain piece you want to make for the competition. Just a reminder, the contestants are among the best porcelain masters in Dalin, so you’ll need to put in a lot of effort.”

Chu Qingshuang was brimming with confidence, “Don’t worry, Master, 1 will definitely bring glory to Li’s Porcelain Workshop.”

Li Zhenzong laughed, “Then I’ll look forward to you making Li’s Porcelain Workshop proud.”

Chu Qingshuang nodded firmly, “I will.”

In Shuiyun County’s free clinic area, a man carrying an elderly man on his back arrived in a state of agitation, shouting,

“Everyone, cand see! My father’s leg wound has worsened. They can’t treat it, and they’re still running a free clinic. Isn’t this harming people?”

Many people in the clinic area turned their attention to the man after hearing his words, and more bystanders gathered around.

Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang exchanged glances and approached the two men.

The elderly man was seated on a stool, clutching his knee, his face slightly pale and pained.

The man continued to shout, “I’m here today to seek justice, especially from her.”

He pointed at Chu Qingning, “She assured that my father’s leg would reduce in swelling the next day, scab over in three days, and not affect movement in seven to eight days. But now, it’s getting worse.”

Seeing the man pointing at her, Chu Qingning, facing such a situation for the first time, couldn’t help but feel nervous.

Yuan Hongjun stepped forward, “Don’t yell, letsee the wound first.”

The man blocked Yuan Hongjun, angrily stating, “What’s there to see? You’ll only make it worse. You don’t know medical skills at all; you’re just practicing on us villagers, right?”

Bao Linjiang’s temper flared, “How can you talk like that? We’ve been treating you for free, and now you’re accusing us?”

The man retorted fiercely, “Just because it’s free, you can do whatever you want? You’re deceivers!”

Yuan Hongjun held back Bao Linjiang’s wrist, whispering, “Let’s check the wound first.” He turned to the man, “Letsee the wound and determine why it worsened, okay?”

The man still obstructed, “No, 1 don’t trust you.”

Yuan Hongjun frowned, “It seems you don’t really want to cure your father.”

The man’s face turned ugly, “What do you mean? Are you saying I want something bad to happen to my father?”

Yuan Hongjun’s tone becstern, “If you really care about your father, you should let us examine what caused the wound to worsen, instead of arguing here.”

Chu Qingning gathered her courage and approached Yuan Hongjun, ready to take responsibility, “Your father’s wound was dressed by me. If it’s indeed my fault, I’m willing to take responsibility.”

The man’s gaze turned fierce, “How can you be responsible? What can a little girl like you do? Instead of staying hto look after your family, you’re out here pretending you can treat people. If it weren’t for you, my father wouldn’t be suffering so much!”

Chu Qingning’s eyes reddened, “1 didn’t do it on purpose. Why are you saying this?”

“Why?” The man, seeing Chu Qingning as an easy target, continued to berate her, “Other girls aren’t like you, showing off in public, harming yourself and others. You should just go hand take care of your children.”

Fan Yuru couldn’t stand it, “We’re running a free clinic, doing good deeds. What do you mean by showing off? Watch your language.”

When the man saw that Fan Yuru was also a woman, he also didn’t take her seriously. “Yes, you’re doing a free clinic, but now you’ve harmed someone!”

Chu Qingzhi, who was in the county to buy supplies, saw the crowd at the free clinic and went over to see what was happening.

Bystanders defended, “I’ve been treated here before, and my wound healed quickly without any complications.”

“His behavior is indeed suspicious.”

“Why don’t you let them examine the wound first? Right now, all you’ve been doing is accusing.”

Bao Linjiang spoke firmly, “With so many people treated in the free clinic, only your father has a problem. Something happened, and you won’t let us check; isn’t there something fishy here?”

The man’s face darkened at Bao Linjiang’s words, “Don’t try to shirk responsibility.” He pointed at Chu Qingning, “It’s her fault, she’s the one who dressed my father’s wound. She’s an incompetent doctor!”

Chu Qingning defended herself, “I’m not incompetent. I’m certain that if your father had followed my instructions, there wouldn’t have been any problems.”

The man aggressively countered, “So now it’s my father’s fault?”

“Indeed, it is your father’s fault.” A clear and pleasant voice intervened.

Everyone turned to see the elderly man’s bandage being removed, revealing a red, swollen, and festering wound. Beside him stood a girl in a light green dress. It was her who had just spoken..
