Chapter 136 Borrowing Medicine
It was almost eight o'clock when I came back from KFC. I parked the car and just saw Yang Fangqin and Zhong Xiong coming back.
"You're back so early today?" Zhong Hui was a little surprised. Usually, her elder brother would come back late at night if he had a social event.
"Today, a few of them who are building a building in the development zone are getting together. They said they want to discuss how to name it," Yang Fangqin explained.
"Is it finished?"
"It's almost done, the roof has been completed." Zhong Xiong said. If the building is not repaired, he will lose his hair. The stress will make him prone to baldness.
"It was built with sixteen floors, right? That was pretty fast." It was completed in less than a year.
"As long as the money is in place, there's no reason not to be quick." He spent the entire year there, and it wasn't for nothing that he supervised the work every day.
He invested more than 10 million yuan. That was a lot of money. He was terrified when he thought about it now. How brave he was at that time.
Fortunately, it is about to be completed. Once it is completed, it can be rented out and the funds can be recovered.
"Okay, okay, what are you talking about in the underground garage? Let's go back quickly." Yang Fangqin pressed the elevator button and told them to leave quickly.
"Coming." Zhong Hui responded, and several people got on the elevator together.
"What are you going to eat tonight?" Yang Fangqin suddenly asked.
Zhong Xu quickly winked at Zhong Hui, "Auntie, don't talk about going to KFC."
Zhong Hui received it and casually named a few dishes. Seeing Zhong Xu instantly relieved, she couldn't help but laugh.
Zhong Xu wasn't that afraid of his mother before.
Zhong Xu's heart was instantly relieved. It was a good thing. If his mother knew that he had eaten at KFC, he would have lost his pocket money for the week. Twenty yuan was a huge sum of money.
"Brother, are you really going to do the decoration of this office building for Wu Xinwei?" Zhong Hui suddenly remembered and asked.
Zhong Xiong nodded thoughtfully: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, I just asked casually." Zhong Hui shook her head.
After this incident, Wu Xinwei became much more stable. She went to Lishan Community several times and every time she saw Wu Xinwei supervising the work, and he was more meticulous than the contractor.
"It's good that this person learned a lesson after suffering a loss," said Zhong Xiong.
"Yeah." Zhong Hui responded. The elevator reached the sixth floor and Zhong Hui took Linlin out first.
As soon as they entered the house, Linlin pulled Zhong Hui aside mysteriously and asked, "Mom, do you know why my brother Zhong Xu didn't dare let my aunt know that he ate KFC?"
Zhong Hui shook her head to indicate that she didn't know.
"That's because he's afraid his aunt will deduct his pocket money."
Zhong Hui held her forehead with her hand. This kid, Zhong Xu, was also obsessed with money.
Linlin rolled her eyes and said, "Mom, I also know what my brother Zhong Xu is going to do with the money he saves."
"What are you doing?"
"Buy a gift for Sister Siqi." Linlin curled her lips. Her brother was just partial.
He never mentioned buying her gifts, and even took money from her when he went out.
"Buy a gift for Zhong Siqi?" Zhong Hui thought she had misheard.
"Yes, I heard it when I went upstairs to look for him at school one time." Linlin said firmly.
Zhong Hui was a little surprised, but she still explained to Linlin, "They are classmates and good friends. Zhong Xu and the others give each other gifts, just like you and your good friends."
Linlin shook her head. No, that was not the case. She knew that her brother just wanted to copy other people's homework.
But Linlin didn't dare tell her mother this. She was afraid that her aunt would find out and her brother would be beaten. So she decided not to tell her mother because she didn't want her brother to be beaten.
"Yeah, I understand."
Let Linlin take a shower first, and Zhong Hui went to the balcony to collect the clothes. She forgot to collect them yesterday when it was sunny, and it rained today. Fortunately, there was an awning on the balcony drying area, so the clothes didn't get wet.
After putting the clothes in the closet, Zhong Hui took out her pajamas, thinking that she would take a quick shower and go to bed after Linlin came out, as she was exhausted after a long day.
“Ding Dong…”
The doorbell suddenly rang, and Zhong Hui was a little surprised. Who was coming?
Zhong Hui opened the door and saw Zhao Jilin, who looked quite anxious.
"Lawyer Zhao."
"I'm sorry to bother you so late at night. Qianqian suddenly has a fever, and I don't have any medicine to reduce the fever at home. I wanted to ask if you have any medicine at home?"
"Did you take the temperature?"
"It's 39 degrees." Zhao Jilin was a little anxious. He came back a little late today. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Zhao Xiqian's face was red with fever. She was lying on the sofa pitifully, and Lele was digging the ground anxiously.
"It's so high, so we need to take antipyretics." Zhong Hui said, and hurriedly went to look in the coffee table cabinet.
"Linlin also had a fever last month, and this antipyretic medicine is quite effective." Zhong Hui found the medicine, turned around and saw Lawyer Zhao standing at the door. He didn't follow her in, so she handed the medicine to her.
"Thanks."
"You're welcome. Go give Qianqian some medicine. If the symptoms don't subside after taking the medicine, we'll have to go to the hospital."
"Okay." Zhao Jilin took the medicine and hurried upstairs.
Upstairs, Zhao Xiqian's cheeks were red with fever, and she lay uncomfortably on the sofa, with Teddy Lele squatting at her feet.
Seeing Zhao Jilin coming back, it walked a few steps to the side very tactfully and then squatted down.
"Qianqian, it's okay. We'll be fine after taking the medicine." Zhao Jilin poured a glass of water and helped Zhao Xiqian take two pills.
After swallowing the medicine, Zhao Xiqian still felt bitter in her mouth. She frowned and leaned against Zhao Jilin.
"Dad, I feel bad."
Zhao Jilin touched his daughter's forehead, which was like a furnace: "It's okay, you'll feel better soon."
"Would you like something to eat?"
Zhao Xiqian shook her head: "I don't want to eat, I want to sleep."
"Okay, then take a nap." Zhao Jilin picked up his daughter, put Zhao Xiqian on her own bed, and covered her with a quilt.
Looking at his daughter's frown, Zhao Jilin fell into deep thought. He was too busy. Perhaps, he should find someone to take care of Qianqian.
