Hearing Xiong Lao'er's wife spouting off, Feng Qingqing didn't take another step. She just stood there with a faint smile, listening to see what else the woman could come up with. Feng Qingqing wasn't standing very far away, and it didn't take long for someone in the crowd to spot her and immediately warn the others.
The bystanders, especially those who had been chiming in just a moment before, instantly grew rather awkward. Gossiping behind someone's back was one thing, but getting caught red-handed was quite another—especially when the person being talked about was the brigade's medic. That simply wasn't worth the risk; after all, nobody could guarantee they wouldn't need medical help in the future.
Those who figured this out quickly plastered on sheepish smiles and looked at Feng Qingqing. "Doctor Xiao Feng, listen to the nonsense Xiong Lao'er's wife was just spouting. I am a million percent against it. After all, the conditions at our Brigade Clinic are right there for everyone to see—even a clever housewife can't cook a meal without rice. We all understand."
