Chapter 82: Even if you are not sick, you are said to be sick



The woman's body went limp, and she stood up with the help of Shen Yunzhao. She stared at the man for a long time, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he had indeed fainted.

"Thank you, thank you."

"You're welcome. Is your arm injured? Let me take a look at it for you first."

Shen Yunzhao lifted the woman's sleeve and saw a cut about seven or eight centimeters long on her arm. Fortunately, the cut was not deep, and the blood flowed out so much that it looked scary, but the bleeding had to be stopped quickly.

Shen Yunzhao thought about it, grabbed the woman's sleeve and gently tore off a piece of cloth.

The woman looked at Shen Yunzhao in surprise, thinking that this beautiful woman was very strong and tore the cloth strip in one go.

Don’t be fooled by the thinness of the fabric in summer; it’s not easy to tear it apart.

Shen Yunzhao tied the cloth to the place where the woman was bleeding, and the bleeding soon stopped.

She then asked the woman, "Where else does it hurt?"

"I just sprained my ankle." The woman pointed to her ankle.

Shen Yunzhao squatted down and helped her lift up her pants, and sure enough, he saw that her ankles were red and swollen.

This Shen Yunzhao can't handle it.

"Let me help you sit over there. The ambulance will be here soon. You can take a rest first."

"good."

The police arrived the fastest and quickly cordoned off the scene, handcuffed the man, and questioned Cheng Shaoyuan and Shen Yunzhao.

Not long after, the ambulance arrived and took the woman to the hospital. As for the man, he was still unconscious and was taken away by another ambulance.

Shen Yunzhao and Cheng Shaoyuan went to the police station again to take a statement. It was already past 4 pm when they finished. They were not interested in continuing shopping and drove home.

"Yun Zhao, let me tell you something!"

After dinner, Shen Fugui didn't leave in a hurry. He dawdled for a long time before coming to find Shen Yunzhao.

"Dad, what's the matter?" Shen Yunzhao asked. She could tell that Shen Fugui must have something to talk to her about.

"Here's the thing. Do you remember that Old Wang? He came to the store again today and said that his relative has high blood sugar and wants to buy your golden thread lotus."

"Dad, didn't I tell you before that Golden Thread Lotus is no longer for sale?"

Shen Yunzhao frowned. There were not many golden thread vines. After supplying them to Xingguang and Huahui, there was only a little left, which he had to keep for Shen Fugui.

"I know, but Lao Wang kept begging me, so I thought..."

"It's really gone."

"If you are so kind, give your share to Lao Wang!" Zhou Xiuqin interjected, glaring at Shen Fugui.

A pushover who takes on everything others say, regardless of the actual situation.

"Hey," Shen Fugui frowned and hesitated for a long time before saying, "Lao Wang's relative is not simple. He is the director of the xx Bureau. If we don't sell it, will it offend him?"

Shen Fugui had a deep fear of officials in his bones, so when he heard Lao Wang say that his relative was the director, he immediately agreed to Lao Wang's request.

Cheng Shaoyuan laughed, "Dad, look at what you're saying. If we don't sell things to the director, we'll offend him. How many people in our county have offended that director? He's not the emperor, so how can he buy anything he wants?

Besides, what if you offend the director? You don't work for him, and you don't rely on him for your livelihood. You don't have to worry about offending him."

"That's not the case. He's the director and has a lot of power. You never know when you might need his help."

"Dad, what's going on in your head? Why should we beg him? It's totally incomprehensible!"

Shen Yunzhao was speechless. Not only was Shen Fugui afraid of officials, he also liked to curry favor with them in order to build his own "connections".

But in the end it turned out that none of those people took him seriously.

After being criticized by the whole family, Shen Fugui felt uncomfortable and went back to the clinic in silence.

"How is it? Did your daughter agree?"

As soon as the clinic door opened, Lao Wang rushed in.

“There’s no more golden thread vine.”

"Oh, it's true...how come it's gone?" Lao Wang felt quite regretful.

"Golden Thread Lotus is rare to begin with, and my daughter didn't get much, so it was sold out after just a few attempts."

Shen Fugui gave a few dry explanations, but fortunately Lao Wang was reasonable and didn't ask any more questions.

“Doctor Shen, forget it if there is no golden thread lotus. In fact, I came here this time to ask if your daughter can get wild ginseng.”

"Huh?" Shen Fugui was stunned for a moment. "Wild ginseng is not easy to get."

The valuable things on the mountain have long been taken away. Not to mention the ten-year-old wild ginseng, even the one-year-old ones have been dug up.

"That's right. A relative of mine..."

"Another official?"

"Haha, yes, he's our county's deputy chief. His last name is Liao. You should have heard of him."

"Liao Changsheng is your relative?"

Shen Fugui was passionate about politics, so he knew the names of almost all the county leaders. Of course, he knew others, but others didn't know him at all.

"Yes, it's Liao Changsheng, my aunt's son and my cousin."

"You have quite a few relatives who are officials."

"Hahahaha, when we were young, everyone chose to join the government, but I was stupid and chose the business world."

When talking about his cousin Liao Changsheng, Lao Wang felt a little proud, as if he was talking about himself.

"My cousin is a very filial person. His mother has been in poor health in recent years, so he has been going around getting good things to nourish her."

"Your cousin is really nice."

"Yes. My uncle-in-law died of illness when my cousin was young. My aunt raised my cousin and his siblings alone and suffered a lot..."

The two were chatting when someone came in from outside.

It was Shen Fugui’s cousin, Shen Fuguo.

Shen Fuguo sat down opposite Shen Fugui and said, "Fugui, Xiaohai is having a barbecue and drinks tonight, come join us!"

"I won't go."

As soon as he heard that it was about drinking, Shen Fugui immediately refused.

He is not in good health for drinking, so he'd better not drink, otherwise the old woman will nag him again and make him annoyed.

"what?"

Shen Fuguo said dissatisfiedly, "How long has it been since you went out drinking with us? How come you forgot all about us brothers?"

"No, I'm not feeling well! The doctor said I can't drink alcohol, otherwise my health will deteriorate."

"Tsk! Doctors are the best at scaring people! They'll tell you you're sick even if you're not, and if you're sick, they'll tell you it's serious! You're in good health, so why can't you drink?"

"Hehe, I have some kidney problems."

"What's the problem?"

"Just a little problem."

Shen Fugui didn't want to say much. He didn't want to tell anyone about his illness, as he felt that others would look down on him if he told others.

In addition, he runs his own small clinic, and if he tells patients that they are sick, they will doubt his medical skills, thinking that if he can't even cure himself, how can he cure the patients' illnesses?

Although this reason is strange, that's how Shen Fugui feels.

"That means it's not a big deal! What's there to be afraid of? Okay, I have something else to do later, so I'm leaving first! Remember, Xiao Hai is having a barbecue tonight! You must come!"

After Shen Fuguo finished speaking, he picked up his phone and keys and left.
