Jing Yunzhao was already prepared to rely on the school, but Doctor Gan and Teacher Jin obviously didn't want that.
"Jing Yunzhao, teacher's house is near the school. I don't have anyone else in the house. I think you don't have to live at school anymore. You can come live with me. I can also take care of you," said Teacher Jin.
If a fifteen-year-old child was to always live at school without the love of senior figures, it just feels she would lack something.
Doctor Gan also thought about it and said, "I also have a house near your school…"
Jing Yunzhao looked with surprise at Doctor Gan and heard him say, "The house isn't big. Three bedrooms and one living room. Only two people are living there right now. One is my granddaughter and the other is my grandson. They also attend Yizhong, and they're also around the same age as you. But they're weird; they don't want to live with adults. If you're willing, you can come join the party, but there's an accommodation fee…"
When Teacher Jing heard about the accommodation fee, she frowned. Before she could say anything, Doctor Gan stopped her.
"The fees are three conditions. First is that your grades must be within the school's top twenty. The second condition is that every month, I will give a test regarding medicine. Its difficulty isn't high but you must pass. And the third condition is that you must at least visit a patient's home with me once a month."
After Gan Songbai finished, Jing Yunzhao understood completely.
Gan Songbai's grandchildren probably didn't want to be nagged about their lifestyle. They didn't want adults to interfere, leaving them with no freedom. Thus, Gan Songbai requested these three things. These conditions are to let them have their free lifestyle but at the same time, to also prevent them from relaxing too much.
But with what he had said, Jing Yunzhao was moved.
If she lived at the school, she would have to be careful when she enters her space at night. Gan Songbai's medicine skills may not be as good as her ancestor's, but he was still a doctor with many years of experience.
She was only starting now. If she were able to visit patients' homes, she would greatly benefit from them.
However, the fee was only advantageous towards her. She couldn't take advantage of it like that.
Jing Yunzhao's face was serious and said, "I'll stop calling you Doctor and will boldly call you Grandpa Gan. I really like the house you spoke of, but my shifu once taught me to not accept things without working for it. You have helped me a lot. I wouldn't be able to live with it if I were to accept this kindness. My shifu left me some money. I can pay you rent every month…"
Gan Songbai's face also became serious, "Since you already called me grandpa, then I'll accept you as my granddaughter. What kind of grandpa would take their granddaughter's rent? If you really can't accept it, then come work under me from time to time. I just wouldn't pay you for working. How about that?"
Jing Yunzhao paused and blushed immediately.
She was just being too urgent and forget about the other meaning of "gan yeye."
But Gan Songbai was kind and his medical skills were also high. He had only seen her a few time, yet he offered his help unhesitatingly. She had lived for more than twenty years in her past life and no senior near her had done anything close to what he has done for her.
Her heart couldn't help but soften and smiled, "Okay! Grandpa, please guide me from now on!"
This clear sound of "grandpa" made Gan Songbai very happy.
He rubbed Jing Yunzhao's head and then turned around to talk to Teacher Jin, "Teacher, sorry about this. You know my granddaughter loves medicine. She could make friends with my grandchildren after living together. Please relax. Yunzhao is a good child. I promise I won't let her suffer any kind of mistreatment. So I must ask you to take care of her at school!"
