Chapter 152 Keep Your Distance
Han Jiaojiao saw that he was almost ripe, so she stopped teasing him.
After simply packing up her things and seeing the last patient, Han Jiaojiao ignored Kang Qingyun and walked away holding Shen Junshan with her left hand and her brother with her right hand.
Chen Amin whispered, "Jiaojiao has changed, right?"
"Ah? Well, it has changed."
"She and Junshan are getting along pretty well, and you're going back to the city soon, and everyone is doing well."
Kang Qingyun looked at Chen Amin, sighed bitterly, paid today's medical fees and left.
By five o'clock in the afternoon in the county town, the heat had dissipated a lot and there was even a slight cool breeze.
Han Jiaojiao pulled Shen Junshan to buy two popsicles on the road.
She smoked one, Han Fang smoked one. Shen Junshan didn't like sweet things, so he didn't buy any for himself.
Han Jiaojiao took a bite and brought the popsicle to his mouth: "Boiled water mixed with cyclamate, it's not greasy at all, try it!"
Shen Junshan took a small bite and said, "Sweet ice."
"Haha, that's a very vivid description! Take another bite. I'm afraid eating too much ice is not good for me."
Shen Junshan also felt that it was not good, so he took a big bite.
I regretted it after I took a bite.
Han Jiaojiao pouted her lips, tears welling up in her eyes, silently accusing him of stealing her popsicle.
Shen Junshan had no choice but to buy her a new one.
As a result, she ate one and a half and ate more...
On Friday afternoon, Han Jiaojiao asked for leave from the clinic and called Chen Amin for help.
The two went to Zhao Yunxia's house first to get some vegetables.
After entering the door, Zhao Yunxia hugged her son with a helpless look and smiled bitterly.
"Where's the food?"
"That... here..."
Zhao Yunxia embarrassedly took out one dollar and fifty cents and handed it to Han Jiaojiao.
Han Jiaojiao: "What do you mean?"
"That's what she meant..." Zhao Yunxia turned around and pointed at Old Lady Xiao.
Old Mrs. Xiao changed into a new set of cotton silk clothes today.
She said sourly: "Green vegetables are not worth much, they are everywhere on the roadside in our village!"
"so what?"
"You can buy a lot with one dollar and fifty cents, and you'll still make money!"
Chen Amin was so angry that she put down the basket of eggs and went up to argue.
Han Jiaojiao stopped her and said, "Old lady, today is your grandson's full moon banquet. Your son has invited all the important people in the company to come. If you want to embarrass him, just do it. Xiao Zhongyi is not my son anyway. I won't feel bad if he makes a fool of himself!"
"That's right! I'm not charging you the processing fee because of Jiaojiao's consideration. If you go by yourself, it will cost you more than this. You are such an incorrigible old man."
Zhao Yunxia was too embarrassed to argue, so she stood beside him, holding her son and bowing her head facing the wall.
"What face? It's all because of Shen Junshan! I've found out that your husband is a deputy and my son is the principal."
"The deputy mayor is higher in rank than the village chief, why don't you say anything?" Chen Amin shouted.
If she didn't feel sorry for the eggs in the basket, she really wanted to throw the whole basket at the old woman's face.
Han Jiaojiao saw that Zhao Yunxia didn't say a word. Her previous heroic look was gone and she looked like a little wife.
Han Jiaojiao felt very uncomfortable.
On the one hand, I sympathize with Zhao Yunxia, but more importantly, I feel sorry for her.
Old Mrs. Xiao said such harsh words, but Zhao Yunxia remained silent. Han Jiaojiao didn't even know who she was doing this for.
Maybe she was just being sentimental.
Han Jiaojiao: "Forget it, I don't want the money. I'll pay for the vegetables."
"Thank you, Jiaojiao."
Han Jiaojiao shook her head: "No need to thank me, I will go back with Junshan after cooking, you guys take your time to eat, and don't call me in these occasions in the future, it's a bother."
"Jiaojiao, what do you mean?"
"I mean, I don't want to put my best foot forward again."
"Jiaojiao, you know I can't make the decision."
"You can't make the decision, but Xiao Zhongyi can. He's easily influenced by small things, but can't figure out big things. I don't think we need to associate with him. I advise Xiao Zhongyi not to have any small thoughts, because he's not smart."
Zhao Yunxia bit her lip sadly.
Xiao Zhongyi had given her five dollars last night and asked her to prepare some side dishes and deliver them to the state-owned restaurant early this morning.
But Mrs. Xiao said that Han Jiaojiao had arranged the restaurant and she was the one who decided on the dishes.
People don't do anything without benefits, maybe you have gained a lot from it.
The main dishes cost money, and the side dishes make up the amount.
Xiao Zhongyi and Old Lady Xiao discussed it and went out in the evening to find out the price. When they came back they decided to only give one dollar and fifty cents.
Zhao Yunxia felt aggrieved: "I said it, I really said it, but he didn't listen!"
"Xiao Zhongyi is an adult, and he will have to bear the consequences if he is laughed at. This basket of eggs is given away for free, and this red envelope is my gift to my child for his first month of life."
Mrs. Xiao immediately snatched the red envelope, opened it and saw five dollars, and her face immediately fell.
While collecting the money, he muttered, "You're bragging so much, I thought it was a small amount of money, you're acting like who cares."
"If you don't want it, give it back!"
Chen Amin rushed forward to grab the money. Old Mrs. Xiao immediately stuffed the money into her clothes and puffed out her chest: "Come on! Grab it! Let me see if you have any shame!"
"you!"
"never mind."
Han Jiaojiao said: "You take the eggs to the restaurant, I'll come in a while."
"You're crazy! They treated you like this and you still want to help!"
"Many neighbors will be there today, and some people from other units also know Junshan. We can't make things too ugly."
Chen Amin left panting.
Han Jiaojiao went home, took a lot of vegetables from the space, loaded them into two large baskets and tied them to the bicycle. After riding to the restaurant, she was not in the mood to cook, so she gave five yuan as processing fee and left with Chen Amin.
Han Jiaojiao didn't want to cook anymore, so she went to Shen Junshan's workplace to find him.
After he said he didn't want to go, Shen Junshan didn't ask why. Zhao Tianyou and Sun Quan happened to be there, so after they finished eating in the cafeteria, they went to the clinic and set up a table to play a few games of mahjong.
Han Jiaojiao fished the watermelon out of the ice water, stabbed the knife into the rind, and the watermelon cracked.
Han Jiaojiao smiled and said, "Sun Quan, the melons you bought today are really good!"
“It was issued by the institute.”
"It's still sandbag, sweet!"
Sun Yong saw the watermelon juice flowing onto her hands and gave her two pieces of toilet paper.
"My brother likes to eat gizzards, too."
"You have a younger brother? I haven't heard you mention that."
"My brother is about your age. He was cold-tempered when he was young, but he's really a good person. It's just that his health has not been good in the past two years."
"Are you sick?"
"Yes, my family was desperate, but there is always a way out. God is not blind and gave us a way to survive."
Han Jiaojiao asked out of her doctor's instinct: "What disease? Cancer?"
"leukemia."
Han Jiaojiao frowned: "Have you found a matching bone marrow?"
Sun Quan nodded and then shook his head.
Han Jiaojiao was anxious: "Did you find it?"
"I found a possibility, but it's not confirmed yet, and I don't know if the other party is willing."
"Donating bone marrow is not life-threatening. As long as you don't have any underlying disease and are not pregnant, why not donate?"
"If it were you, would you be willing?"
Han Jiaojiao nodded: "Of course!"
Sun Quan smiled and said, "You are such an amazing person. I must let Xiao Wen meet you."
"Sun Wen? It's a nice name. In terms of seniority, he should call me Second Uncle, right?"
Sun Quan: “…”
