Chapter 152: Help
Yue Jiaojiao was no saint, and she had no intention of saving Chen Xiaolang.
However, since his mother and Doctor Zhou were old acquaintances, it was clear that her character was good enough for Doctor Zhou to care for her son after so many years.
Otherwise, with Doctor Zhou’s straightforward personality, he would never tolerate Chen Xiaolang.
She was only thinking that if Chen Xiaolang were to seek death, at least his mother would still have a job to make a living.
Moreover, she had also heard from Zhao Zhan that he was looking for someone to help the store.
Chen Xiaolang looked at Yue Jiaojiao in disbelief, then at Zhao Zhan. He opened his mouth and said hesitantly, “If you still hold a grudge against me for what happened last time, come at me. That incident has nothing to do with my mother! My mother’s health is not good, so she has to take medicine. Let’s forget about that.”
“We have no intention of venting our anger on your mother,” Yue Jiaojiao explained, which was a rare occasion. “You can go back and ask for your mother’s opinion first. If she’s willing, you can ask her to go to the shop and ask for Manager Li. It’s fine as long as Manager Li doesn’t think there’s a problem, you can go ahead.”
“You’re not lying?” Chen Xiaolang looked nervous. “You’re really willing to hire my mom?”
“As long as Manager Li feels that your mother can do her work, you can go.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely find out who you want to know as soon as possible! If there’s an outsider in Wangshan Town, there’s nothing I can’t find out!”
Chen Xiaolang straightened his neck and looked as if he was eager to prove himself. “As long as the person you are talking about is still in Wangshan, I will definitely be able to find out for you.”
“Then I’ll leave this matter to you.” Zhao Zhan held Yue Jiaojiao’s hand without leaving her sight. He looked at Chen Xiaolang with a sharp gaze and said, “Be careful. Don’t let them find out who you are.”
“Don’t worry! If it wasn’t for you last time, Fang Tianliu would have cowered and…” halfway through his words, Chen Xiaolang covered his mouth awkwardly and ran away.
As he watched his figure disappear, Zhao Zhan turned around and nervously looked at his lover. “Jiaojiao, Doctor Zhou hasn’t taken your pulse yet. Let’s go and find Doctor Zhou again.”
Yue Jiaojiao nodded her head noncommittally.
Doctor Zhou wasn’t surprised to see them return. After examining Yue Jiaojiao, he prescribed a few prescriptions.
“One dose a day is enough. Remember to drink it before you go to bed. Drink it for seven days before you come to me to restock the medicine. Doctor Zhou’s face was serious as he ground the ink and wrote the prescription. Don’t forget.”
“Many thanks, Doctor Zhou.”
Zhao Zhan kept the prescription like it was a treasure and led Yue Jiaojiao to the ingredient boy to get the medicine.
“Zhao Zhan, why are you even happier than me?” Yue Jiaojiao turned to look at him with a smile on her face.
“Because I’ve been worried that the blood clot in your head might cause you any problems. Now that it’s slowly disappearing, it’s making me very happy.”
“Sir Zhao, you and your wife are really in love.” The medicine boy handed over the medicine bag and said with a smile, “This medicine must be boiled in a bowl of water and boiled on low heat. You should pay attention to the heat when it’s ready.”
“Thank you, I’ll remember that.”
Zhao Zhan took the medicine and brought Yue Jiaojiao back to the house. He waited until she had fallen asleep before he left the house and rushed towards Willow Village.
She had been infected with the cold wind last time, so Zhao Zhan didn’t dare to be so careless and bring her along this time.
“Other than Zhao Laoer’s family, everyone else in the village came to me to sign a contract.” Yang Lizheng saw Zhao Zhan return and took out a stack of contracts that he had kept away. Zhao Laoer and his family have a lot of family members. They said that they had enough money to use, so they didn’t want to join in on the fun.
