Rebirth Era's Petite Wife

Chapter 1041 1038 Too Shrewd
Xu Xiaoli tentatively asked: "Sister Shen, can we go to apply for the certificate now?"

"Yes, you can go now." Shen Jiao nodded.

"Do you want to mention the names of sister Shen's friends? I'm afraid Director Meng doesn't know us." Xu Xiaoli smiled shyly, her little face flushed.

Shen Jiao glanced at her, then smiled lightly and said, "No need, my friend has already mentioned your elder brother's name to Director Meng, so I won't miss you, just don't worry."

Xu Guanghui said with a silly smile: "Thank you Jiaojiao, I'm going to apply for the certificate now, I don't know how to do anything else, why don't I make you some small soup dumplings, I think the little ones like it very much."

Aunt Xu's heart skipped a beat, she squeezed out a smile and said, "Jiaojiao doesn't need anything, she doesn't care about those little soup dumplings of yours, we are old neighbors, we keep our kindness in our hearts, don't talk about it often of."

A cage of small soup dumplings is a triangle. The eldest son, a prodigal son, will definitely send more than a dozen cages, which cost a few dollars. He has given away so many things before, so he will give it away again!

You really don't know how to live, you prodigal son!

Xu Guanghui looked at Aunt Xu helplessly, and smiled apologetically at Shen Jiao, his mother was too shrewd, Shen's family helped so much, it was only right to make some small soup dumplings to thank him!

Shen Jiao glanced at the shrewd Aunt Xu with a half-smile, and said with a smile: "What Auntie said is true, and my grandfather also said that we are all old neighbors. If you can help with small things, you can help them. I don’t have any opinions, Auntie, do you think this is the case?”

Aunt Xu didn't understand Shen Jiao's voice-over, she was still happy about saving a few yuan of bun money, she nodded repeatedly: "Isn't it, it takes a hundred years to cross the boat, a thousand years to sleep together, and ten thousand years to become an old neighbor." !"

Shen Jiao gave up on the plan to check Xu Guifu's pulse. Xu Guanghui is a good person, but his mother is too shrewd. She doesn't want to get involved with this kind of person. Besides, she accidentally saw Xu's breakfast just now. The piece of black fermented bean curd, and the leftover rice with half a bowl of water dripping, all of them showed the quality of Xu's food.

Then the reason why Xu Guifu collapsed so quickly is unknown!
"Auntie, I heard from my grandfather that Uncle Xu suffers from silicosis. This disease is not serious. The most important thing is to take good care of him. Nutrition must be ensured, so that he will gradually recover."

Shen Jiao tactfully reminded the Xu family that although silicosis is not curable, it does not mean that death is certain. As long as the normal care is taken, it is not difficult to live like a normal person. Besides, Xu Guifu has not been in the mine for ten years. It shouldn't be too serious. His current appearance is most likely caused by malnutrition.

A healthy person who eats pickles and fermented bean curd every day will wear down his body after a long time, not to mention that Xu Guifu is a patient himself, eating these is like adding insult to injury, and it is a miracle that he can live to this day.

Shen Jiao looked at the old and rickety Aunt Xu, and the short, black and thin Xu Guanghui. Although she didn't see the other two, she didn't think they would be so strong. In this family, only Xu Xiaoli looked healthier. Listen to Shen Jiaxing It is said that Xu Guanghui's three brothers have reached the age of marriage, but no girl is interested in them, even if they are upside down, no one wants them.

In fact, the three brothers are very good-natured, and they are diligent and thrifty in running the family. Even if they don't have a formal job, there are still people rushing for them to do the back door. The reason why they are so unsalable has a lot to do with their appearance.

Which girl is willing to find a man who is not good-looking and has a poor family to be her husband, even if she is the one who walks in the door. Not only men are animals that judge people by their appearance, but women are also the same.

Shen Jiao sighed slightly, she didn't understand Aunt Xu's way of life, how much money could she save at the cost of her health?
Even if it's saved, what's the deal?
It can be said that this is the most uneconomical business. Like Xu Guifu, if he eats better and keeps up with his nutrition, he won’t have the strength to get up, and he may even do some light physical work, such as pasting cardboard boxes and rubbing hemp. It is not impossible to earn a dozen yuan for small jobs such as ropes. The most important thing is that if you are in good health, you don't need to take medicine every day, and the medicine money can buy a lot of meat.

Also, Aunt Xu and Xu Guanghui's bodies are very thin because they can't keep up with nutrition, and their bodies won't get any better.

This account is calculated carefully, but it is really a big loss!

Although Shen Jiao couldn't see it, she didn't say much, just pointing to this point, when Aunt Xu heard Shen Jiao mentioned Xu Guifu, her face sank and her eyes turned red, she wiped her tears and began to complain: "Jiaojiao, you don't know How much hardship do we live, we can’t even afford medicine, how can we have spare money to buy food? Everyone understands the truth, but it’s really difficult to do it!”

The implication is that you young lady who doesn't understand the misery in the world, don't stand up and talk without back pain!

Xu Guanghui said without hesitation: "Mom, what are you talking about with Jiaojiao?"

Xu Xiaoli was so angry that her face was ashen. Her mother was really ashamed and thrown into the Huangpu River. She sternly reprimanded: "Mother, is Dad ready to cook his medicine? Go and see!"

Aunt Xu seemed a little scared of her little daughter, shrunk her neck and went to the stove in the corridor, where Xu Guifu's medicine was stewed, steaming and smelling like traditional Chinese medicine.

Xu Guanghui smiled at Shen Jiao embarrassingly, Xu Xiaoli felt very embarrassed, it would be fine if it was someone else, but it was Shen Jiao, which made her feel even more ashamed.

Shen Jiao saw the embarrassment of the two brothers and sisters, and took the initiative to leave: "I have to leave beforehand, please persuade Aunt Xu, there is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine that medicine is not as good as food supplements, Uncle Xu suffers from chronic diseases. Ten sticks of traditional Chinese medicine are not as nutritious as three meals a day, and it is better to eat less pickled vegetables and fermented bean curd, and you are the same, it is not good for the body."

Xu Xiaoli felt that Shen Jiao's words really touched her heart, not because she felt sorry for Xu Guifu, but for herself. All the other girls became popular at the age of thirteen or fourteen, but she was the only one who came last year.

"Sister Shen, you know a lot, no wonder, you are a college student, you must know a lot!"

Xu Xiaoli envied Shen Jiao very much. She used to have good grades in her studies, and she was always among the best in every exam, but later the family had no money to pay for tuition, and her mother said that girls don't need to read too many books, so she was only allowed to read Those who graduated from primary school are not eligible.

Shen Jiao smiled and said, "I'm studying medicine, it's wrong if I don't understand it!"

"Oh, Sister Shen, you are a doctor. You are so powerful. Where do you work?" Xu Xiaoli was even more envious, not to mention how imposing a female doctor in a white coat is.

Shen Jiao didn't hide it from her, and replied truthfully: "The hospital of traditional Chinese medicine will return to work in half a month."

　Second more!
