HCB Chapter 510: Not willing to take advantage of others
Chapter 510: Not willing to take advantage of others
Now, there were two people in the cafeteria and one standing at the door. The three of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere froze for a moment.
Of course Gao Erzhuang was even more frightened. He forgot to breathe when he saw Shen Zhichun pushing the door open with one hand.
After Shen Zhichun came to his senses, he went into the house and poured a bowl of sesame oil, then glanced at the father and son of the Gao family who were still in a daze.
He whispered, "We are a family. What do you mean by a good match? That's her third uncle? Not your third uncle, right?"
The main thing is that Shen Zhichun's first reaction after being shocked was: If the girl marries Erzhuang, she will be like his younger sister and can be kept under his nose.
As a family, we will never be bullied.
Then there is the young man Erzhuang. Apart from not wanting his daughter to get married so early, he really likes her.
Gao Shuangxi didn't react until Shen Zhichun had walked several steps away. He quickly kicked his son. What was this silly boy doing in a daze?
Gao Erzhuang, who was kicked awake at the same time, stuttered and wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say: "Uncle, I? You..."
Shen Zhichun was honest and simple. After he figured it out, he didn't want to embarrass his future son-in-law. But he didn't look back, but waved his hand to say:
"I have to discuss this matter with my family when I get home. It's getting late so I should go back and rest."
He mainly felt that even if he didn't discuss it with others, he had to ask his daughter's opinion.
Now that he is being taken care of by his third brother, he also knows how to ask for the child's opinions.
However, even if the daughter is willing, that brat can't think of getting married so early. At least he has to wait until the daughter is over 18 years old.
Thinking of this, Shen Zhichun felt better: "You little bastard, you dare to think about his daughter without saying anything, then you just wait, haha!"
Early the next morning, Shen Zhiqiu brought Doctor Guo, his wife and daughter to see the second son of the Chang family as promised. As expected, the son was found to be suffering from calcium deficiency.
When they followed Chen Dongjia to Chang's house, they looked at the little baby. It can be said that the baby looked even thinner than Xiao Shouzi from Gao Dazhuang's family when he was fleeing from famine.
Fortunately, the baby was well-prepared to be raised, otherwise it would be hard to say how long he could live.
The Chang family looked really nice. Although they didn't see their eldest son this time, at least the wife and concubine of Shopkeeper Chang were okay.
Of course, Shen Youyou and Li Jingshu are also completely incomprehensible. It is really possible in ancient times for the principal wife and the concubine to get along harmoniously.
You know, in most cases, the wife and the concubine fight like a black-eyed chicken, causing miscarriage at any time.
Either you kill the mother and keep the child, there are simply too many of them.
There are indeed few families like the Chang family.
But this has little to do with them. They just came here to see a doctor and bought the storefront by the way.
As for the rickets that this little kid has, it is mainly due to insufficient synthesis of vitamin D in the skin, insufficient intake, and rapid growth and development.
Or it may be caused by drug effects, maternal vitamin D deficiency during pregnancy and lactation, etc.
Therefore, it is still possible to cure the disease by supplementing vitamin D while the child is young.
Therefore, Li Jingshu asked the servant of Manager Chang to go out and buy some carp.
Although it is well known that cod liver oil is best made from deep-sea fish, other freshwater fish can also be used.
Moreover, cod liver oil is rich in vitamin A and vitamin D, which can treat or prevent rickets.
Vitamin D helps the absorption of calcium, promotes bone growth and development, and maintains bone health.
In the previous life, many children in flower-growing families took cod liver oil from an early age to prevent this disease.
As for the extraction of cod liver oil, it was also simple. When they celebrated the New Year in the cave, they made a lot of it using fish from the underground river.
Li Jingshu taught the Chang family's cook how to make it step by step.
Madam Chang and the concubine also followed and learned seriously, otherwise how could they tell that they got along so harmoniously.
Shen Zhiqiu was not really idle either. He and Doctor Guo were in the Chang family's study.
I also explained to Mr. Chang a lot of foods that can supplement calcium.
Fearing that he would not remember, Shen Zhiqiu copied it down for him and explained it patiently: "Children, you can drink more milk. You know cows, right?
I can buy one later and let my children drink it from a young age. It will not only strengthen their bones but also help them grow taller.
The second is to eat more eggs, dried shrimps, tofu, sesame paste, peanut butter and other foods. "
Although the child cannot be cured immediately, Mr. Chang has already firmly believed in what Shen Zhiqiu and his family said.
The main thing is that the explanation was too detailed. The things they gave the children to eat were all food, and they didn’t prescribe any medicine.
Therefore, he held the paper with the record, his hands trembling: "Brother Shen, let's go, let's transfer the ownership. I will sell my storefront to you for one thousand taels."
Hearing this, even Boss Chen was surprised. You know, this was only the second time Brother Shen and Boss Chang had met, and he had only given some dietary therapy methods.
Even children cannot be cured in a short time.
Mr. Chang can trust his younger brother so much. Is this the charm of personality?
Thinking of this, he saw his brother, shaking his head and saying:
"Brother Chang, the child's illness will not be cured in a short time. Why don't you rent the house to me first?
If the child is really well, we can talk about the sale then. We don’t need to pay one thousand taels, we can just follow the market price.”
Mr. Chen analyzed it for him yesterday and found that the market price of this store is basically around 1,200 taels.
It's not that Shen Zhiqiu is being unreasonably generous. It's mainly because he doesn't want to take advantage of someone in distress, and he doesn't want to use a poor little kid as an excuse.
His previous suggestion to give a discount was just a recurrence of his old stingy habit.
To be honest, he is a bit eccentric. For example, if his wife and children want something, he will try his best to buy it for them.
They are very generous and won’t feel sorry for something and say things like: This thing is so expensive.
But if he thinks that this thing is only worth 1,200 taels and you ask him for 1,500 taels, he will not be happy to be taken advantage of.
Of course, when he has to buy something and the other party refuses to bargain, he has no choice but to buy it.
But obviously, due to the illness of Mr. Chang's youngest son yesterday, the price was negotiable.
So this is killing two birds with one stone. He doesn't have to be a sucker and has to pay more money to buy a storefront. Mr. Chang's youngest son's illness can also be cured, and everyone gets what they want.
But Mr. Chang refused to do anything and insisted on transferring the property right away, offering only one thousand taels.
Finally, Chen Dongjia interrupted and said, "You two should stop pushing each other around. Brother Shen, listen to Brother Chang and transfer the ownership now. The price is one thousand taels.
You should also consider yourself as a friend of Brother Chang, and ask your sister-in-law and Uncle Guo to come visit the little kid more often in the future, which is better than anything else."
These words really touched Mr. Chang's heart. He has now come to terms with it. No amount of money in the family can buy the health of their children!
"Yes, Brother Shen, let's visit each other more often in the future. Don't refuse me, your brother."
