Chapter 531: Be a Happy Fat House
After Chen Dongling and his group left, Sun Shan was left in Jinling to recuperate.
I lay in bed all day, unable to move, and doing nothing.
Seeing that the weather was good, Gui Ge'er moved Sun Shan to the yard to bask in the sun.
It was a sunny day with warm sunshine and a gentle breeze. Sun Shan lay on a bamboo chair, looking at the sky boredly.
These days are so boring. In just a few days, life is worse than death.
The old imperial physician came over to see Sun Shan again and made a careful diagnosis. He did not say whether Sun Shan's illness would heal quickly or not. He just watched him.
After the examination, Sun Shan was given two injections. The prescription did not need to be changed, he just needed to continue taking the medicine.
Sun Shan sometimes suspected that the imperial physician was cheating on his insurance.
Why is there no change in the progress day by day? I suspect that he is delaying my recovery and making it difficult for me to recover quickly.
Anyway, the Xu family pays for it, so there is no need to worry about the medical expenses running away.
Manager Chen brought Sun Dingnan and Sun Dali back from outside.
The three of them went shopping for groceries.
Sun Dali and Sun Dingnan became cooks, but Manager Chen was the most leisurely one. He wandered around all day, wanting to do something but unable to find any.
After lunch, Sun Shan took the initiative to say, "Uncle Chen, my illness has stabilized. I don't want to delay you."
After finishing this long speech, Sun Shan's mouth began to drool again, and Gui Ge'er quickly picked up the handkerchief to wipe it.
Sun Shan meant that his condition was now stable and gradually improving. Manager Chen didn't need to stay with him anymore and couldn't delay Manager Chen's work.
You should know that it is very difficult to find a good job, and if you leave your job for too long, you will be replaced.
Sun Shan didn't want to cause Manager Chen to lose his job or have his position replaced by someone else.
After spending the past few days together, Sun Shan roughly understood that the manager Chen in front of him was actually from a branch of the Chen family. He came to the main branch to help with work. By chance, he was noticed by Chen Dongling, and followed Chen Dongling to do shipping and business, and finally got the position of manager.
Manager Chen and He Shuqiang's mother, Chen, are relatives within the fifth degree of kinship.
Chen's grandfather was much more powerful than Chen Guanshi's grandfather. After Chen's grandfather retired from the government, Chen's father took over his grandfather's position as a "civil servant".
His status is much higher than that of Manager Chen.
Manager Chen looked at Sun Shan. He didn't expect that Sun Shan would bring it up so early.
He has been helping here these days, trying his best, but he is not quite willing to do so.
If given a choice, Manager Chen would definitely want to accompany Chen Dongling to Beijing.
When traveling for business, Manager Chen was in the front and Chen Dongling was behind.
Manager Chen was afraid that if he was away from his post for too long, he would be replaced by someone below him.
Competition is fierce in every industry. He has worked hard to climb up to the position of manager from a farm family with only a few acres of land. Naturally, he does not want to be replaced for some reason.
However, Manager Chen did not expect Sun Shan to be so considerate and took the initiative to suggest that he leave first.
As expected, he is a juren gentleman. He is thoughtful and long-term in everything he does.
Manager Chen still hesitated and said, "Mr. Sun, your condition is not good yet. If I leave, can you handle it?"
Sun Shan nodded and said, "It's okay. I'm here. It's okay."
It was really difficult to speak. Sun Shan thought he could speak perfectly, but he just stuttered and paused when it came to his mouth.
The mouth is not controlled by the brain at all.
But Sun Shan felt much better now, at least he no longer felt numb as before.
Especially today, his hands and feet could move to a greater extent. Sun Shan thought that this was a sign of improvement.
As for waiting for him to get better before Manager Chen leaves, I don’t know how long that will take.
Sun Shan couldn't delay while the manager was doing his work.
Gui Ge'er didn't want Manager Chen to leave, as he felt that Sun Shan still needed Manager Chen's care. In fact, Manager Chen's care was not really necessary. As long as the Chen family stayed here, Gui Ge'er would feel much more at ease.
But Sun Shan had his reasons for doing so. Gui Ge'er was stupid, so he should just listen to smart people.
Sun Dali and Sun Dingnan had the same idea as Gui Ge'er. They didn't want Manager Chen to leave, but they couldn't delay other people's work.
The Chen family has made all the arrangements well enough. One should not push for more than one step and should know when to stop.
Manager Chen was still worried, so he stayed for two more days. The old imperial physician said that Sun Shan's condition was getting better and better. According to the current situation, the day when he could move and jump again would not be far away.
Take a slow rest, even if you can't recover 100%, you can at least recover 77%.
After hearing this, Manager Chen felt completely relieved. He went to the dock and asked a familiar ship merchant. He learned that there would be a ship arriving in Beijing the next day, so he said goodbye to Sun Shan.
Manager Chen apologized and said, "Mr. Sun, there is a boat arriving in Yangzhou tomorrow. I am going to take it."
To get from Nanjing to the capital, first take a boat to Yangzhou, and then head north along the Grand Canal.
Sun Shan nodded and winked at Sun Dingnan.
After receiving it, Sun Dingnan immediately took out a small purse and said thankfully, "Uncle Chen, these are the money we give you. Thank you for your hard work these days. We are sorry to have caused you so much trouble."
Manager Chen refused: "Don't say that. Our young master is a good friend of Mr. Sun. It's not a big deal to help him a little."
Following Sun Shan's instructions, Sun Dingnan insisted on giving Manager Chen a hard work fee and just stuffed it into his pocket.
They said gratefully: "Uncle Chen, please take it. We would feel bad if you didn't. Don't refuse. This is a small token of our appreciation. Thanks to you, we don't have to rush around. Uncle Chen, you're welcome. Thank you very much."
Manager Chen looked at Sun Shan, and Sun Shan asked him to stay there.
Manager Chen thought about it and accepted it. He smiled and said, "Thank you very much."
Sun Shan thought about how Manager Chen had been helping wholeheartedly these days, taking Sun Dingnan, Sun Dali, and Gui Ge'er to familiarize themselves with Jinling.
Tell them what they can do and what they cannot do, and teach the three of them a lot of things.
Although Manager Chen is not from Jinling, he has been in business for so long that he is very familiar with Jinling. With him around, Gui Ge'er and the other two can avoid taking detours.
At least when I go shopping for groceries, I know where to get good quality and cheap food, so I won’t be cheated.
Manager Chen got up before dawn. Sun Dali and Sun Dingnan sent him to the dock to catch a boat and then came back.
Sun Dali said a little fearfully: "Ashan, there are only four of us here. I am a little scared."
The same goes for Sun Dingnan and Gui Ge'er. There are only four people in the entire Yingtian Prefecture, and the backbone Sun Shan can't speak clearly or move his hands and feet. They are afraid of what they will have to deal with in the future.
Sun Shan quickly said to him comfortingly: "Don't be afraid. Nothing will happen."
As for how to reduce unnecessary complications, Sun Shan directly told Gui Ge'er, Sun Dali, and Sun Dingnan not to go out. The only time they went out was to sell vegetables and cook.
Sun Shan and his four friends decided to be happy fat otakus, so as to reduce the chances of accidents.
