That night, Suellen also heard about Scarlett's arrival.In fact, because of the rotating break with Margot, Margot finally saw her father Gerald and sister Scarlett, and Suellen was not on the wheel at all.

After she hit the operating table, she didn't come down until after sunset.

The doctors, nurses and nurses in the hospital are all the same, they can only eat breakfast and dinner in discredit.Of course, everyone can take turns to rest for an hour at noon, which also includes the time for eating.

There is no way to do this, working more than thirteen hours a day, and it is a high-intensity operation, without rest in between, I am afraid that the few doctors who will die first are the few remaining doctors.

Dr. Meade, who had also just come off the operating table, picked up the coffee—the coffee Marg had gotten from the Yankees was now his—and took a contented sip of its aroma.Intoxicated and authentic: "I haven't had such a fragrant coffee for a long time. Although it smells a little bit of tobacco."

Yes, Yankee soldiers and officers like to put their coffee in tobacco pouches, which makes any coffee available in the South now smell like damned tobacco.

But this kind of coffee is already very rare for everyone in the south.

"Margo, dear, I mean, are you really going to start a nursing hospital?"

Margot nodded and said: "Yes. Many wounded must receive more professional care. This is one. Second, there is no doubt that the South lost a large number of young and strong in this war. This It will also lead to a series of social problems. For example, after losing a man in the family and suffering a lot of loss of property, many ladies in the upper class may have to work hard for their livelihood. I mean, next, The South will face a series of social problems after the war, family problems, and others. A nursing hospital can help many families reduce their burden. Of course, the operation of the nursing hospital must require a lot of funds. So, after leaving the hospital, I will Keep working hard. I will treat philanthropy as a lifelong career.”

Margot is very aware of the South, no, it should be said that there are certain unspoken rules of the upper class, especially professional women, if they are black, it is fine, but with her wife of the upper class in the South, it is definitely impossible to become a professional woman.At least not now in late September 1864.

Charity, however, is different.

A charitable name can help her bypass many obstacles, and also allow her to achieve her goals in a roundabout way.

To put it bluntly, in the United States in the 21st century, almost every high-ranking person is very keen on charity, but the fact is that for most of them, charity is actually nothing more than a means of avoiding taxes. It is just a tool, and quite a few people regard charity as a tool for profit.

However, this does not prevent charity from helping many people.

Mutual benefit is the essence of charity, and charity operations rely on the mutual help of people.

Margot is very clear that although it seems that there is not much change, the world has changed since the day when she, Suellen, and Rhett mastered a large amount of bonds in the United States.

She was doomed not to return to her family, to the South, no, it should be said, to return to the requirements of women in the United States.

Moreover, there are no relevant laws and regulations related to charity in this era, so Margot intends to promote relevant laws and regulations. Of course, if she has enough energy, time and money, she also wants to promote the social welfare system.

Suellen was very straightforward: "Margo, I'm not as smart as you, but I just need to know that I can do what you do. By the way, Scarlett came here just now? Why didn't I listen To her harsh, sharp voice?"

"Oh, Suellen, she's our sister after all."

Suellen shrugged and said, "But she has a bad temper. I mean, everyone knows about her relationship with Charles. I thought she would be against the Yankees."

"As a matter of fact, she did meet the Yankees just now."

"Oh, did she? And did she yell at those Yankees? Or just give them a knife?"

"Oh, Suellen, if that's the case, the Yankees will shoot."

"Shots fired, didn't you?"

In fact, everyone present knew that no matter how severe the confrontation between the North and the South was, the soldiers of the Northern Federal Government would definitely not attack a lady, especially a wife from an upper-class family in the South.

That would cause public outrage.

Everyone laughed.

After laughing, Suellen said, "I mean, it's really rare that Scarlett didn't lose his temper."

Scarlett's bad temper was notorious in Atlanta.

Dr. Meade said: "She is also one of the few wives who insist on not leaving."

Dr. Meade heard too, and even Mrs. Whiting was gone.

Suellen immediately said: "It must be because mom didn't leave. Scarlett is very picky about us, but she worships mom very much. However," Suellen frowned and said, "I think , and then Scarlett might have a conflict with her mother."

Dr. Meade was very surprised: "Mrs. Kennedy, why do you say that?"

Suellen said: "Who made my mother a typical older generation? What she taught us is the things of the older generation. But the things of that era have long since gone with the wind along with this war. Si Callite is not as good at thinking as Margo. In my opinion, she has limited abilities and is stubborn by nature. She refuses to admit defeat easily. With such a temperament, she may become more and more stubborn and mean in the end. And more and more stubborn. She will defy all the old customs of the South."

"Oh my God."

Dr. Meade murmured, "That must be a disaster."
