Chapter 405 She wouldn't spend a single penny.
She actually wanted to say more, but she knew that Shen Zhixia wouldn't give her much.
She just wants to grab some money and leave as soon as possible.
Zhang Weihong spat and said, "Come on, I think you just want money. You won't even take him to see a doctor for his injuries. His injuries have been there for so long, and you haven't even treated them. You're outrageous. You're just obsessed with money."
Although she didn't treat Wang Xiaojian well, she didn't think she would be so mean to him. At least Wang Xiaojian was well taken care of and was in good health.
But the elderly saleswoman went too far; she didn't treat the child like a human being at all.
Actually, she felt that the old saleswoman had such a respectable job and was not short of money, so she really couldn't understand how she could do such a thing.
The elderly saleswoman looked up and said indifferently, "No matter what, you should compensate us. It's not unreasonable for me to ask for this little bit of money. What I need now is medical expenses. Anyway, you should at least give me the medical expenses."
She felt she was in the right this time. All she wanted was medical expenses, and Shen Zhixia had agreed to give her those expenses, so what was wrong with her taking some money?
She did nothing wrong.
She awaited Shen Zhixia's reply.
She thought Shen Zhixia would give her fifty yuan. If not, she would lower the price, at least twenty yuan for medical expenses.
Shen Zhixia wouldn't be so stingy as to not even give twenty yuan, would she?
Thinking of this, the elderly saleswoman felt a little more confident.
However, Shen Zhixia just smiled and said, "It's like this, I know someone at the health center. If you go to her for treatment, you won't have to pay. And she's very skilled; she can heal Heiwa's injuries very quickly. So I'm covering your medical expenses, but I won't give you any money because I'll take Heiwa for treatment myself, and that won't cost me anything either."
Of course, Shen Zhixia made this up. Even if she went to the clinic, it would cost money. Even if Huo Chunyan offered to cover her medical expenses, she would definitely refuse. She would give the money to Huo Chunyan, since medicines were very valuable these days.
Buying medicine at the health center costs money.
However, this was just to intimidate the elderly saleswoman; she simply wouldn't give her any money.
Upon hearing this, the elderly saleswoman was dumbfounded: "What do you mean? You're not willing to pay a single penny?"
She was getting impatient: "You're the wife of a deputy division commander, how can you be so stingy?"
Shen Zhixia looked at the elderly saleswoman and smiled, "I already promised to take Heiwa to get his wound treated, and I'll cover all the expenses. How can you say I'm stingy?"
“But you don’t have to spend any money to take him to get his injury treated,” the elderly saleswoman said.
Shen Zhixia said, "If you take him there to treat his injuries, that will cost money."
That was the apology, but the elderly saleswoman felt unsatisfied.
No matter how unwilling she was, it was no use. In the end, Shen Zhixia took Heiwa to the health center.
During this time, the old lady at the shop kept staring at her. Shen Zhixia then brought Heiwa to Huo Chunyan, who prescribed some ointment for him without charging her any money.
Therefore, everything Shen Zhixia said is true.
She took Heiwa to see a doctor, and she really didn't have to pay.
The elderly saleswoman was really angry, but there was nothing she could do. Not only had she lost face today, but she hadn't gotten anything out of it either.
After seeing the person off, Zhang Weihong was the happiest: "Xiao Shen, you are really amazing. If I were in this situation, I would be helpless and would only fight with the other party. But you, with just a few words, you got her under control and left her with no way to do anything. Being educated really makes a difference."
She said enviously, "Especially those few words you said to Heiwa, they made Heiwa tell the truth right away. How can you be so smart?"
Shen Zhixia said, "He's nothing special. He's just a kid. It's not hard to get him to tell the truth."
Zhang Weihong was thoroughly satisfied with what she saw. She gave Shen Zhixia a thumbs up: "It's great that you didn't suffer any losses in the end. That old lady was really ridiculous. She actually thought she could extort money with such methods. She was dreaming."
Shen Zhixia simply smiled and remained silent.
When she got home that evening, Shen Zhixia told Huo Chenzhou about it.
Huo Chenzhou asked with a serious expression, "Did she hurt you?"
Shen Zhixia laughed and said, "What are you thinking? She just wanted money. She left when she didn't get it. How could she possibly hurt me?"
Huo Chenzhou breathed a sigh of relief: "If you encounter something like this again, come to me. If I'm not around, and you find the other party in danger, don't offend them. You can agree to give them the money."
Shen Zhixia rolled her eyes at him: "What nonsense are you talking about? Do you really think I'm a sucker? There's no way I'm going to give her the money."
Huo Chenzhou was actually worried about Shen Zhixia. He was afraid that something might happen to her. If she encountered some extreme people, he felt that he could give them the money. After all, no amount of money was as important as Shen Zhixia. However, his words caused Shen Zhixia to misunderstand, and she despised him.
He could only shake his head helplessly: "How come I never realized before that you loved money so much?"
Shen Zhixia snorted: "You're only just realizing I love money? I've always cared a lot about money. After all, who in the world doesn't love money?"
That's true, but Shen Zhixia loves money, though not that much. She feels there are many things in the world more important than money.
Moreover, she already has a lot of money; the money in her spatial storage is enough for her to live on for a lifetime.
But she still refused to give the old lady at the shop today.
This was because the elderly saleswoman threatened her.
This door must absolutely not be opened.
Today, the elderly saleswoman used such a small matter to threaten her, demanding money. Once she gives in, everyone will know her weakness, and next time, who knows, even more people will try to extort money from her, which will not be a good thing.
Moreover, this time her child was indeed in the wrong, which is why she had to take responsibility for Heiwa's injury. In any case, Heiwa was beaten by both children. But what about next time? Next time, some people will use means to frame her, making it impossible for her to find any evidence. In more serious cases, it could threaten Huo Chenzhou's title.
Therefore, she must be firm in her stance; she needs to let everyone know that she is not someone to be trifled with.
She wouldn't spend a single penny.
