Chapter 129 Little Beggar

Every word he said just now was the truth. If the old woman had gone to see another doctor, she would naturally find that she was fine and there would be no need to come to him again.

Chen Chunxing shrugged. She naturally couldn't describe the wonder of her eyes. She only said, "Most rich people have this problem."

The so-called diseases of affluence are caused by eating too well and exercising too little on a daily basis. They usually occur in overweight people.

Especially older people like Nanny Chen are more likely to develop diseases.

Previously, she was surrounded and mocked by the crowd at the market, and she was furious. Then she ran after the mule cart, and exerted all the strength she had not exerted in years. The toxins were forced out of her lungs, and then the symptoms appeared.

This disease is neither big nor small.

If discovered in time, it is easy to cure; if discovered not in time, the patient will die.

Doctor Chang glanced at Shen Chunxing and asked, "Do you want to save her or not?"

Chen Chunxing played with the pen, "It depends on whether she wants to live or not."

The old student also understood what was going on. He couldn't help but snatch the pen from Chen Chunxing's hand, took out a new piece of paper, and wrote carefully, "Excuse me, Miss Shen, if I agree to teach at your place, how much will the monthly salary be? Will you provide me with housing? Will you give me rice, flour, and meat during festivals?"

Chen Chunxing: “…”

"For some things, it's better for us to make an agreement. This will have evidence, and you and I can both feel more at ease."

The old student quickly finished writing the document and carefully handed it to Chen Chunxing to read.

He felt that he had some brains, but he didn't have the confidence to compete with the girl in front of him. He didn't want to end up like that old woman Chen, who was fooled and still had to think about how much silver to give!

Chen Chunxing sucked his teeth and ate the flower seeds.

This really stumped her, and she couldn't help but ask the person beside her, "How much is a reasonable amount to pay a teacher?"

Shen Zhixia blinked innocently.

He stretched out his hand and made the number "three".

The meaning is to let Shen Chunxing go back and ask Shen Mingqiu, he might have some experience.

Chen Chunxing simply asked the old student, "How much do you want?"

The old scholar pondered for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Three qian of silver a month...is that okay?"

Chen Chunxing opened his mouth wide.

The old student immediately changed his tone nervously: "How about giving me two cents? But you can't stop me from writing petitions. I have a big family, and I won't be able to make a living if I give you less!"

Chen Chunxing... yawned.

"Let's make it like this for now. If it's not enough, let your son earn it himself."

The old scholar looked at her suspiciously and said in a muffled voice, "I don't have a son."

Chen Chunxing smiled awkwardly and looked at his face hard. "Nothing to say, you're just making fun of me..."

It's clearly a sign of good fortune for four generations to live together.

It is rare to live to this age in a war-torn area.

But the old man didn't seem to be lying.

Maybe something had gone wrong? She rolled her eyes, pretending to be clueless.

We will meet naturally if we are destined to do so.

There is no point in saying more without reason.

After signing the paperwork, the old student carefully put it in his arms. Without waiting for Chen Chunxing to ask, he said his last name was Qi: "You can call me Old Qi or Old Qi, whatever's fine. If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. After all, we're moving, so I have to go back and sort things out."

Chen Chunxing had no objection and asked him if he wanted a ride.

Mr. Qi waved his hand and said that he was afraid of getting diseases of affluence!

Chen Chunxing smiled and made an agreement with him that after he had put his belongings in order, he would go to Xue's house to leave a message. After receiving the message, he would bring a car to help him move.

This time Mr. Qi did not refuse.

After chatting for a while, everyone prepared to disperse and go about their business. They all stayed here with Doctor Chang, as he was afraid that the patients would be scared!

At this time.

The tall girl who had just left with the prescription turned around and came back.

He was holding a little beggar in his hand.

His shoulders were exposed in ragged clothes, half of his trouser legs were missing, and his face was painted black. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether he was a boy or a girl.

"Miss Shen, he was the one who hit me just now!"

The child was quite irritable. After struggling for a few times but failing to get free, he stiffened his neck and glared at Chen Chunxing, "I bumped into you, so what do you want?"

Chen Chunxing was speechless for a moment.

She doesn't want to...

Old Qi took a few glances and shook his head: "It looks unfamiliar. It doesn't look like it's from the west side of the city."

In fact, his family lives nearby and he sees beggars around here every day. This is the first time he has seen such a small baby.

I guess he is only five or six years old.

In the north, it is often the elderly and children who die the fastest, especially those who are left unattended. Very few of them can survive the winter.

Doctor Chang scratched his head in confusion, "Why did you capture him?"

The tall girl was speechless.

Obviously she hadn't thought it through. Maybe she just met him on the road and brought him here in excitement without thinking.

In fact, everyone knew that it was Jichang Pharmacy that did the bad thing!

As for the little beggar, no one really wanted to bother with him.

The tall girl let go of him with a look of embarrassment.

"Go now. Open your eyes from now on and don't do anything that helps the evil. It will damage your merits."

Who would have thought that after hearing these words, the little beggar's eyes turned red and he actually cried out "wow".

"You are all bad people! You all take advantage of me because I'm uneducated! The owner of the drugstore is so cruel, he at least gives me something to eat, and what about you? All you do is make sarcastic remarks!"

Everyone was confused and condemned Chen Chunxing with their eyes - you have to comfort the crying child!

Chen Chunxing: “…”

She must have offended someone.

"Then I'll give you some food too?" Chen Chunxing asked tentatively.

The little beggar immediately wiped his face and grabbed her sleeve with his little hand: "Keep your word, you won't get married if you lie."

"Hey, it's really hard for me to handle this if you say that. After all, someone is trying to take me home...Okay, come with me."

Chen Chunxing let the little beggar hold him, gave a look to the few people to stay calm, looked around, and finally found a stall selling cakes.

The west side of the city is so poor that you can’t even find a decent food stall.

But the little beggar ate this bland plain bread greedily.

"I've paid for it, so take your time eating."

Chen Chunxing was actually somewhat interested in the little beggar, but when he felt the heat from the token on his wrist, he had to regretfully put his interest aside.

She has a lot of her own things to do.

It’s not possible to be a saint.

The little beggar suddenly became very nervous and stood up with the bowl in his hand. Chen Chunxing lifted his left foot, then he lifted his left foot. Chen Chunxing lifted his right foot, then he lifted his right foot...

The stall owner knocked on the pot and asked: "I paid, but you want to take the bowl with you?"

Chen Chunxing had no choice but to sit down again and said helplessly: "I will only give you one chance, just speak up if you have something to say."

The little beggar was so anxious that sweat broke out on the tip of his nose. His face instantly turned black and white. He spoke incoherently, "Brother Sanshui asked me to find the richest, most prestigious, and kindest person in the city... They all say she's the county magistrate's maid... I don't know how to find her... The owner of the drugstore asked me to harm someone, which I don't want to do, but I need the money..."

Chen Chunxing thought that his search was quite accurate, and asked with a smile, "Why would you look for someone like this?"

The little beggar threw the bowl onto the table, making a crisp sound, and deliberately lowered his voice to sound a bit like crying: "Help!"
