Shen Yunduo asked in shock, “What, Dad doesn’t have polycystic kidney disease?”
"No, really not."
Shen Yundong hurriedly took out the examination report from his bag and handed it to her.
Shen Yunduo took a look and couldn't understand the picture, but she could still understand the words below, especially the bottom line: "No obvious abnormalities were found in both kidneys."
She read both reports, and both hospital reports showed that her father's kidneys were normal and there were no abnormalities.
Shen Yunduo laughed, "So it was a misdiagnosis by the hospital! That's great!"
Ge Qiang also took the two reports and read them carefully. After reading them, he laughed, "Fortunately, it was a misdiagnosis. The quality of this county hospital is too poor. They diagnosed you with a disease when you are not sick. Haha, Dad, I want to have a drink with you later!"
Then he looked at Zhou Xiuqin, "Mom, can Dad drink today?"
Zhou Xiuqin nodded happily, "Yes, of course."
When Shen Fugui heard that he could drink, he was overjoyed. "Xiao Ge, let's drink beer later. Ice beer!"
"Why are you drinking beer? Didn't mom make some medicinal wine? Let's drink it later."
"That's fine!" Shen Fugui smiled from ear to ear. He looked around and suddenly found that one person was missing.
He asked Shen Yunzhao, “Yunzhao, where is Xiao Cheng?”
"He went to the city with Secretary Wen today and won't be back until after 10 o'clock."
"So late! Hey, Xiao Cheng has been getting busier and busier lately, and often comes home very late at night."
"Haha, Secretary Cheng must be very busy." Ge Qiang continued with a smile, "Sister, I used to be able to have a drink with my brother-in-law just by calling him, but now it's difficult! I haven't had a drink with him for almost a month."
Shen Yunzhao said helplessly, "There's nothing I can do. He's really too busy as a secretary. When he's free, I'll ask him to treat you to a drink."
"Then you must invite me!"
A few people were joking around, and soon the food was served.
Today’s dishes are all Chef Lin’s specialties, and they tasted especially good. Everyone enjoyed the meal very much and was so busy eating that they had no time to talk.
We didn't stop until everyone's stomachs were full and they couldn't eat any more.
Ge Qiang first poured a glass of wine for Shen Fugui, "Dad, here's a toast to you! It's a good thing that you were misdiagnosed. You can drink without worry from now on! I wish you good health!"
Shen Fugui raised his glass and clinked it with Ge Qiang's, saying with a smile, "I wish you prosperity!"
They both drank a glass of wine in one gulp. After they finished, Ge Qiang continued, "Dad, if you want to drink in the future, just come to me. I'm always free. Don't go drink with those people outside. People like Shen Fuguo just want to eat and drink for free and let you be the scapegoat. People like Shen Fuguo are actually easy to deal with. They just want to eat and drink for free. At most, we just spend a little money, which is not a big deal. But some people outside don't have good intentions. They say they want to treat you to a drink, but who knows what they are up to!"
Everyone looked at Ge Qiang. It was obvious that Ge Qiang had something else to say.
Ge Qiang continued, "Dad, you might not know this, but a lot of people have been inviting me for drinks lately. In the past, I couldn't get some people to drink even after repeated invitations, and I had to ask a middleman of status to invite them. Now, those people are taking the initiative to invite me for drinks."
"Why?" Shen Yundong asked curiously.
"Haha, it's because I have a brother-in-law who's the secretary of the top boss! Those people invited me to drink just to get close to my brother-in-law! I know exactly what they're thinking!"
Chen Yundong's eyes widened. "Why don't they just invite you to drink directly, brother-in-law? Third brother-in-law, these people are really taking a detour!"
Looking at Shen Yundong, whose eyes were clear and stupid, Ge Qiang laughed out loud.
"How could my brother-in-law be so easy to please? He doesn't know those people well, so why would he drink this kind of wine? I'm different. I'm just a small businessman, I'm always available. They want to get to know me so that if they need help from my brother-in-law in the future, I can help them. Do you understand?"
Shen Yundong thought about it for a moment and immediately understood.
"I see. These people are so utilitarian!"
"Haha, when you get out into society, you have to understand one thing: there's no such thing as a free lunch. Even if there is, you have to pay a price to get it."
After Ge Qiang finished speaking, he looked at Shen Fugui again, "Dad, have many people invited you to drink recently?"
"A lot." Shen Fugui sighed, "My old friends, one by one, call me every day to invite me for drinks."
Shen Fugui used to have a lot of drinking parties because he was generous. Whenever everyone went out to eat together, he would often pay the bill, so everyone was happy to treat him.
Later, Zhou Xiuqin stopped him from drinking outside, so few people invited him to drink anymore.
Now that the eldest son-in-law has become the secretary of the top leader, those who used to drink with him have called to invite him for a drink.
"Dad, those people must be coming for my brother-in-law." Ge Qiang reminded.
"I understand. I'm not stupid, how could I not understand what those people's intentions are?"
Because those people were so motivated, Shen Fugui lost interest in drinking.
So when these people invited him to drink, he didn't want to go.
“Dad, if someone gives you something, don’t accept it.” Shen Yunzhao also reminded.
"I know! I won't accept anything! It's not easy to take other people's things. They burn your hands."
Shen Fugui said proudly, "Last time, there was a Mr. Wang who said he knew Xiao Cheng and sent me a box of Moutai. Mr. Wang used to come to my store often to buy medicine, and we have known each other for a long time. I moved the box of Moutai back to the trunk of his car on the spot and told him not to send anything to me in the future, otherwise I would be angry."
"Which Mr. Wang?" Shen Yunzhao immediately became alert.
"That short one with Mediterranean hair and a fat body."
"Is it Wang Yaoguang?" Zhou Xiuqin suddenly thought of someone.
"Yes, it's Wang Yaoguang, the foreman of the project."
Shen Yunzhao finally remembered that Wang Yaoguang came to his father's store to buy medicine many times, and he always bought tonic Chinese medicine, such as ginseng, deer antler, astragalus, etc.
Wang Yaoguang's purpose in sending something to Shen Fugui is self-evident.
Shen Yunzhao said seriously, "Dad, you can't accept Mr. Wang's things, not even a pack of cigarettes!"
"Of course I won't accept it! We don't need that kind of stuff at home, and I'm not that picky."
Shen Fugui has very high standards now. Moutai and other things are not rare things.
Their golden thread vine, mulberry wine and wolfberry wine are even rarer. They are truly therapeutic, but the quantity is limited.
"Come on, stop talking about boring things and let's drink!"
Zhou Xiuqin raised her glass. She was really happy today and planned to have a few drinks.
"cheers!"
"cheers!"
