Chapter 39 You do Grade 1 and I do Grade 5
Lin Chen deliberately lowered his voice: "Aunt Gao, we have no grudges against each other and there is no need for me to harm you. If I really want to harm you, is there anything crueler than watching you die alone with no one to take care of you in the future? Why should I treat you? At your age, what kind of person can you find after divorce? If you get married again, will they still let you have children?"
Gao didn't want to get a divorce, but she didn't dare to have an affair with another man...
Lin Chen started to give Gao Shi chicken soup again...
He analyzed the unreliability of the Jia mother and son and Ma Lan to Gao again.
The more Gao thought about it, the more it made sense. She thought about it for about ten minutes and then remained silent.
Yi Zhonghai has a high salary, and I may not have a good life if I remarry. As long as I do it secretly, he will treat his children well.
"Xiao Lin, I... will think about it carefully. Please help me with the treatment first!"
"I hope Aunt Gao can figure it out!"
After a few minutes
After removing the two silver needles, Lin Chen prepared two packets of gynecological conditioning medicine for her.
After Gao took the medicine, she put down a handful of change and was about to leave. Although Lin Chen was not short of money, he did not refuse.
"Aunt Gao, once you have a target, you should bring Master Yi for treatment. Otherwise, there will be big problems..."
Gao turned her back to Lin Chen and nodded: "Thank you, Xiaolin, I'll go back and think about it."
……
Lin Chen returned to the main room with a handful of change, and Qin Huairu had already prepared dinner.
"Lin Chen, this... this is?"
"Aunt Gao's consultation fee. Our herbs are very expensive. How can we not pay..."
Qin Huairu counted and found there were twelve yuan. She was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
"So many! You are so amazing..."
"Keep it! I'll make you a new cotton-padded jacket in a couple of days when you can go out for a walk. She'll also give us some money after a while."
"Hey, it won't take that much."
……
After Gao returned, Yi Zhonghai watched her bring back two prescriptions of Chinese medicine.
"He tricked you into drinking this stuff again. We've checked in all the hospitals. You'd better save some money for your retirement!"
Gao looked at Yi Zhonghai with tears in her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Xiao Lin said that after I drink these two packets of medicine, I will be able to have a normal period. You... you have been fooling around with Jia Zhang for so many years, but she still hasn't gotten pregnant, right? Xiao Lin said he can try it on your problem, believe it or not. Anyway, I have cured it, so you can just wait to regret it!"
……
The corner of Yi Zhonghai's eye twitched. He didn't expect Gao to bring up this topic today.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Jia Zhang and I are innocent."
Gao rolled her eyes at him fiercely.
"Bah, other people may not know whether you have something going on, but I do. Don't you just want to try whether you can get pregnant with another woman?"
After Gao left the Lin family, she had already decided that it was better to have a child of her own than to raise Jia Dongxu. Although it was not Yi Zhonghai's, at least it was her own. Yi Zhonghai had done so many dirty things behind her back over the years. If he dared to do it on the first day of the month, I would do it on the fifteenth day...
Yi Zhonghai was in the wrong and didn't dare to argue with Gao, so he had to lie down again and pretend to sleep.
Gao went to make her own medicine...
Yi Zhonghai, who was lying on the kang, took a deep breath: "Can this guy really cure me? He can even cure a twisted palm. He is really capable. I can try again with him... But I have offended him because of the deaf old lady's house."
……
Seven o'clock in the evening
Jia Dongxu took Ma Lan back home like he was serving his grandmother.
Jia Zhang was very unhappy along the way. She brought a gift worth a few dollars to the Ma family, but they didn't even treat her to a meal... and she was scolded by Ma Lan's three sisters-in-law.
"Dongxu, are you hungry? The noodle shop here is still open. Let's eat first and then leave!"
Of course Jia Dongxu was hungry, he had persisted and hadn't eaten anything until now.
But all the money I had was used to buy gifts for the Ma family, and now I don’t have any extra money to buy noodles.
"Mom, do you have money? I don't have a dime..."
Jia Zhang frowned. What's the point of eating without money? I have to save my money for my old age...
"I don't have any either! Ranko, do you have any?"
Ma Lan snorted coldly: "No, how can you eat if you don't work at night? You will starve to death if you skip a meal! Hurry up and leave. I will freeze the baby in my belly and make you suffer."
When the eldest grandson was mentioned, the mother and daughter were dumbfounded. They didn't dare to retort and could only go home with Ma Lan.
……
Into the night
Snowflakes slowly floated down from the sky, and a new round of rain and snow swept across the northern land. The city was covered with snow overnight, and at dawn, the north wind mixed with snowflakes was still howling.
Qin Huairu slowly opened her eyes and was about to get up to prepare breakfast for Lin Chen when she was pulled into the warm bed again...
"Just lie down, and don't touch cold water for the next few days."
Qin Huairu rubbed her fair little face against Lin Chen's strong chest. This feeling was so happy.
"I'm from the countryside, so I'm not that spoiled. I'm used to farm work and getting up early. I know you're good to me, but I can't do nothing just because you're good to me."
Lin Chen didn't care about anything else and just held her, who was slippery and fragrant, tightly around him and refused to let go.
It wasn't until seven o'clock that they got off the kang together...
……
After breakfast, Lin Chen did not go to the steel rolling mill, but came to the back door of Hongbin Building.
The task of protecting the Thief Saint has been completed, and the task of retaining He Daqing should also be dealt with.
Bai and her son worked in the kitchen of Hongbinlou. As long as Bai and her son were kept from returning to Baoding, He Daqing would naturally stay in the courtyard...
Eight in the morning
Bai and her son braved the snow to rush to work. They were waiting for He Daqing's reply. Let's go back to Baoding together...
"Good morning, Aunt Bai!"
Bai was a little bit overwhelmed by the sudden shout, but when she looked carefully, she found out that it was the owner of the restaurant - Lin Chen.
"Good morning, Xiaolin. Why are you here to pack food so early today?"
Lin Chen smiled and said, "I do plan to order two tables of food and drinks today, but I'm mainly looking for you."
Bai was stunned and didn't understand what Lin Chen meant.
"Mom, since Comrade Lin is looking for you, I'll go in first. The master will be unhappy if I'm late..."
Bai waved to her son and asked him to go in first.
"Comrade Xiaolin, what do you want to talk to me about? You are the big boss of our restaurant. If you have any problem, just tell me and I will definitely help you."
"Aunt Bai, I heard from the people at the restaurant that you are planning to return to your hometown in Baoding, right?"
Bai nodded in acknowledgement: "That's true. My son doesn't have a formal job in the city. It's not a long-term solution for the two of us to keep doing odd jobs here, so I plan to take him back to my hometown to find a stable job."
Lin Chen looked around and saw that there was no one else around.
"Aunt Bai, I won't beat around the bush. I came here to talk to you about this. If I can give your son a formal job, will you return to Baoding?"
Mrs. Bai was stunned. Although she and her son helped Lin Chen pack the food boxes every time, they only met a few times and were acquainted, but there was no friendship between them. Why did he suddenly arrange a formal job for his son?
