Transmigrated into a poor peasant family, lacking clothes and food, life is hard enough, why must she also be schemed against by her only relative?
So she's not their biological child, wh...
Jiang Qiao patted the other person's shoulder with a smile. "Comrade Director, I'll go find him tomorrow. Please wait patiently."
By the way, it would be best to give a copy of this document to Comrade Gu Zhengkai as a memento. After all, he almost lost his life because of this issue.
Don't forget to pay the consultation and medication fees. Oh, and by the way, the amount my uncle spent is what you'll be paying.
The man nodded with a gloomy face. "Don't worry, I won't forget."
Jiang Qiao then seriously confirmed with the other party, "Director, please don't think I'm overcharging. The medicinal ingredients alone are hard to find, and besides, there are three patients in your family, so the medication will naturally be more expensive."
However, I can guarantee that the medicine will cure the ailment, and as for the pain, I think you, Doctor, can afford this amount of money, right?
The man readily nodded. "Okay, I'll go back inside and wait. You guys go back and draft the document immediately, then send a copy over right away. Be quick—"
The people who came with him were a bit dumbfounded, mainly because they genuinely admired Jiang Qiao. Their director was quite cunning, yet this young girl had managed to outmaneuver him, leaving him feeling incredibly frustrated. It seemed they really needed to cultivate a good relationship with Gu Zhengkai in the future.
They are capable and of good character; the key is that they have a talented niece.
Regarding their director's illness, it's not like they haven't seen other doctors, but no one knows what's wrong. Yet, this young woman managed to figure out what the problem was.
If any family member has health problems in the future, they can consult this young lady. She's truly a hidden gem!
Once the group left, Gu Zhixuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Qiao'er, I hope that person won't come back to settle scores later. His eyes and expression didn't seem right to me."
Gu Zhengkai smiled and explained to his son, "I reckon someone will talk to him soon."
Jiang Qiao smiled and said, "Maybe they'll have guests today. By the way, Brother Ning, why don't you go with my brother and take a look? I'll stay here and wait until I see the documents before I go over."
Ning Hao asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Jiang Qiao shook her head and gave Ning Hao a playful smile. "I'll recover after meditating for a while. Go on."
The two went together. Gu Zhengkai, lying on the hospital bed, shook his head and said, "Your older brother is still far inferior to you. Boys are too refined, which sometimes puts them at a disadvantage."
Gu Zhengkai witnessed firsthand how formidable his niece was. She showed no fear even when facing their director, managing to leave him speechless and unable to utter a single word.
Jiang Qiao didn't have to wait long before someone delivered the documents to them. Upon seeing the contents, Jiang Qiao nodded in satisfaction.
"That's more like it. They're all our comrades, so why bother? They're not our father's killers, and we're not digging up their ancestral graves. There's really no need for that."
Go back and tell your director I'll go find the medicinal ingredients right away. Also, you need to send someone to take care of my uncle; after all, his current situation is largely due to your mishandling of the situation, isn't it?
The other party was easy to talk to. "I'll find someone to come right away. Comrade Jiang Qiao, please take care of the medicine. The director is not feeling well, so he's naturally irritable. We're all suffering because of him. Please consider it a good deed. I've already paid the medical bill to the inpatient department."
Comrade Zhengkai, please focus on your recovery. We'll go back to work as soon as you've fully recovered.
After everyone left, Jiang Qiao inquired in detail with Gu Zhengkai about the backgrounds of these people.
After hearing her uncle's explanation, Jiang Qiao could only manage a bitter smile.
"Forget about them, Uncle. What would you like for lunch? I'll go get it for you."
Gu Zhengkai shook his head. "I have no appetite, Qiao'er. When will my leg get better?"
You know, it's really uncomfortable for a grown man to be lying quietly in bed.
Jiang Qiao looked at Gu Zhengkai with some helplessness, "Even if you can recover faster, it will be limited. You can't get out of bed for the next month. After a month, you're just pretending. Getting better too quickly isn't a good thing. It's okay, you can use a wheelchair. If you want to move, then you can move, okay?"
Gu Zhengkai grinned and said, "I knew my niece was capable. Qiao'er, don't tell your grandfather about my affairs, so he won't worry. I'll talk to him about this myself later."
By the way, your dad told me about you and Ning Hao. Have you chosen an auspicious date yet?
Jiang Qiao shook her head. "I haven't had time for that yet. I just recovered a bit and came straight here to find you. I'll have Master Hou pick a date for Ning Hao to go back, and then I'll have him handle the paperwork."
Gu Zhengkai sighed, "Your father originally told me he was reluctant to let you get married so early, but given the current situation, it's better to get married sooner. Did you see the look in that director's eyes just now? He's no good."
My situation is basically settled. You can go about your business as usual; we'll keep an eye on things here.
The uncle and nephew had just chatted for a while when the person sent by the company to help take care of Gu Zhengkai arrived. Gu Zhengkai recognized the person; the two of them had shared a dormitory back in the day.
"Old Gu, I really have to congratulate you this time. The official documents have been issued, so your status is no longer a problem."
Gu Zhengkai smiled and invited the other person to sit down. "It was nothing to begin with. I'm such a good comrade. After all these years, don't you understand me? Girl, you go ahead and do your work. Your uncle and I have a good relationship."
Jiang Qiao smiled and nodded at the other man, "Uncle, I'll leave my uncle with you. I'm going out to find medicine. You don't need to go out for lunch; I'll bring it back later."
After Jiang Qiao left, the two of them sat in the room for a long time, sighing and lamenting. "We were all worried about you, but in this situation, please try to understand—"
Gu Zhengkai didn't hold a grudge. "I understand, of course I understand. If you get closer to me, things might start to go wrong. To be honest, before my child came, I almost thought I would never leave that courtyard again."
What I missed most at that time was our time drinking together. I was so hungry! Those bastards wouldn't even give me any food. Thankfully, it's all over now.
The other person patted Gu Zhengkai on the shoulder with a smile, "Brother, you've turned misfortune into blessing this time. News has already come out from over there that you've caught several enemy agents because of your cooperation. You've done a good deed in a roundabout way, and their letter of commendation has already been sent to us."
It would be a lie to say I wasn't envious. When everyone thought Gu Zhengkai's life was over, who would have thought things would take a turn for the better?
"Sigh, I didn't take it seriously when you said your niece was great, but now I know for sure."
I'm so confused. Didn't they say your child had been in a coma for years? How come they're here all of a sudden?
Gu Zhengkai smiled and said, "I found a master to treat the child. The child's health had just started to improve, so I rushed over here."
Tell me, what's the situation in our department? Is it relatively stable?
The other party nodded. "Not bad. The director did want to send people over here, but before he could, your niece caused quite a stir."
Gu Zhengkai asked in surprise, "Who are you planning to bring in?"
The other person shook their head. "I don't know exactly who it is, but that's what everyone's saying. I don't know if it's true or not."
