Chapter 557: Save Ma Shouchang and show Zheng Juan the house(1/3)
Because she had to take a bath with Zhou Chen and Li Suhua today, Zheng Juan did not go out to set up a stall. Originally, she wanted to take her mother and younger brother with her, but Aunt Zheng was unwilling to go, and neither was Zheng Guangming. In the end,
She was the only one who came to make the photo.
Li Suhua took out two tickets and said to Zhou Chen: "Chunyan gave me two tickets. The three of us are going. There is still one ticket left. We will buy another ticket later."
Zhou Chen said: "Mom, you have said this several times. I understand. Let's go quickly. It will take time for us to walk back and forth."
There is only one bicycle at home, and there is no room for three people in one bicycle. Zheng Juan and Li Suhua cannot ride bicycles, so the three of them can only walk on their own legs.
The public bathhouse is not very far from the photo. Because there are no private bathhouses now, the public bathhouse is the only large bathhouse in the large surrounding area.
Leg strength is the least valuable thing these days, so Zhou Chen and the others took their time and took half an hour to reach the public bath.
"Juan'er, when you go in later, hold on to my mother, the floor is slippery inside." Zhou Chen told Zheng Juan.
Zheng Juan responded very obediently: "I know, I will help aunty."
Li Suhua said impatiently: "You go to your men's bathroom, we don't want you to ask so many questions."
What she was most satisfied with about Zheng Juan was that she found that no matter what happened, as long as Zhou Chen spoke, Zheng Juan would agree without any hesitation.
She feels that with such a personality, after they get married in the future, Zhou Chen will have the greatest say in the family, which will be good for their future lives.
The doors of public bathrooms are not big. Compared with the bright and brilliant bathrooms of a few decades later, there is no comparison.
Zhou Chen was about to walk into the bathroom when he suddenly saw someone running out in a hurry.
"Give way, please give way."
Then I saw people in the bathhouse pushing open the door, and a staff member behind him ran out carrying an old man on his back. The old man who was being carried on his back was screaming in pain, "Ouch, Ouch."
At the entrance of the bathhouse, a tricycle was parked there, with a large wooden board placed on the back of the tricycle.
"What's going on? What's going on?"
"The old man accidentally fell and had to be sent to the hospital quickly."
The people at the bathhouse carefully placed the injured old man behind the tricycle. The old man was wearing a single coat inside and a military coat outside. He was lying on the back of the tricycle, hugging his legs, and kept crying out in pain.
The bathhouse staff left the old man behind and prepared to ride a tricycle to the hospital, but he was stopped because he was only wearing a short-sleeved overall.
"Go inside and change clothes quickly."
When Zhou Chen saw this scene, he felt a little familiar inexplicably. He couldn't help but think of the beginning of the TV series. Zhou Bingkun seemed to have saved Ma Shouchang who fell at the bathroom door. Could this old man be Ma Shouchang?
In this TV series in the human world, there are many noble people of Zhou Bingkun. In addition to Shao Jingwen, Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen are definitely Zhou Bingkun's noble people.
If this old man is Ma Shouchang, he certainly cannot sit idly by and ignore it.
Zhou Chen saw that Zheng Juan and Li Suhua had entered the bathroom, so he walked towards the tricycle.
"Did you fall? I know some medical skills. How about I help you?"
The bathhouse staff guarding the old man looked at Zhou Chen and asked, "Are you really a doctor?"
"I'm not a doctor, I just know some medical skills."
Zhou Chen walked directly to the old man, grabbed his leg and looked at him. His action made the old man scream again.
"My legs, don't move my legs."
Zhou Chen said: "There should be some bone cracks, but the specifics need to be carefully observed."
"What should we do?"
"What else can we do? Send him to the hospital."
Zhou Chen said to the people in the bathhouse: "In this case, I will send him to the hospital first."
When the bathhouse staff heard this, they were overjoyed and said directly: "Okay, I'll leave it to you. Thank you, young man."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to the bathhouse, as if he was afraid that Zhou Chen would regret it.
Zhou Chen was also a little speechless, it was quite realistic, but after all, he had been a doctor, and he couldn't really just sit back and ignore the patient in front of him.
So he no longer thought about anything else, but took off his coat and covered the old man's legs.
"Uncle, there is something wrong with your bones. I will take you to the hospital now."
"Go to 131, go to 131..."
No. 131 Hospital is a military hospital. When Zhou Chen heard the old man say this, he was sure that the old man must be Ma Shouchang.
In fact, he never thought about getting to know Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen specifically, because he has a good job now and has no need to rely on them, so naturally he didn't think about deliberately getting in touch with them.
But who would have thought that fate was so strange? Instead of trying to get acquainted with him, he accidentally met Ma Shouchang.
Zhou Chen pedaled the tricycle very fast. In fact, he could see where Ma Shouchang was injured. If it were a young man, it would not be serious, but Ma Shouchang looked to be about fifty years old. He was older.
The bones in his body are much more brittle than those of young people, so he felt particularly painful.
"Young man, you gave me your clothes, don't freeze."
Ma Shouchang endured the pain and said to Zhou Chen.
Although he was in severe pain just now, he could see the situation clearly. This young man was more active than the staff at the bathhouse. Not only did he cover him with clothes, but he also took him to the hospital in person.
Zhou Chen: "It's okay, I'm in good health, and I ride a bike, so I won't freeze."
In fact, this place is closer to the city hospital, but Ma Shouchang had to go to No. 131 Hospital, so he could only take a detour to go to No. 131 Hospital.
After sending Ma Shouchang to the hospital, Zhou Chen rode a tricycle back to the bathhouse. The hospital even asked someone for his name, but he did not hesitate and said his name directly.
He had not originally planned to make friends with Ma Shouchang and his wife, but now that they have met, they are also very good characters, so it would be beneficial to make friends with them.
When we returned to the bathhouse, more than an hour had passed. Li Suhua and Zheng Juan were already waiting at the door.
Seeing Zhou Chen coming back on a tricycle, they both ran over eagerly to ask what was going on.
Zhou Chen simply explained to them, and then asked them to go into the bathhouse hall and wait for a while. He would go in and take a shower before coming out.
…………
After the meeting, Zhou Chen and Shao Jingwen returned to the office.
In the second half of this year, Liu Xingyuan was transferred to the logistics department because of his age. Zhou Chen took over Liu Xingyuan's position because of his outstanding work ability, and now stays in the same office as Shao Jingwen.
Although Zhou Chen has not yet received the title of deputy editor, his salary has also been improved. President Wang of the publishing house has promised him that his rank will be raised within two years.
Sharing an office with Shao Jingwen made the relationship between the two even closer.
"Teacher Shao, thank you very much for the house."
Shao Jingwen smiled and said: "No need to thank you for this little thing, and it's a coincidence. Lao Zhu has to go to his son to take care of his grandson, otherwise I wouldn't have found a house for you so quickly."
"Then thank you too. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to rent this house."
Because Zhou Chen was getting married to Zheng Juan, he wanted to find a place to live. The old house was too inconvenient. Not only did he want to move out by himself, but he also planned to take Li Suhua with him.
It is difficult to buy a house now, so he can only find ways to rent a house. He looked at many houses, but they were either too remote, too small, or too expensive.
Shao Jingwen knew that he wanted to rent a house. Coincidentally, a retired cadre of the publishing house had a three-bedroom bungalow. Because their son was in another city, they planned to go to his son's place to take care of his grandson, so they thought of renting a house.
The house is rented out.
After Shao Jingwen found out, he told Zhou Chen and even took Zhou Chen to see it.
Zhou Chen saw the house and was very satisfied with it. This house is a bungalow with an area of more than 160 square meters. It has three bedrooms, independent kitchen, bathroom, dining room and living room, and a small enclosed yard at the door.
The house is a bit similar to the house that Zhou Bingkun bought in the TV series, which was the house that was deceived. It's just not as fashionable as that house, but the area is not much different.
What makes Zhou Chen most satisfied is that this house is in a good location, very close to the publishing house, in the city, surrounded by shops, hospitals, schools and so on.
The house is nice, but the rent is really not cheap. The asking price is 150 a year.
You must know that in this era, the average worker's monthly salary is only more than 20 yuan. Zhou Chen paid back the price, and finally it became 70 yuan a year.
70 yuan is really a lot in this era. Houses in this era are very cheap. If a house like this is not in a good location, you can rent it for 3 or 4 yuan a month, which is already considered very good.
The reason why Zhou Chen was willing to give so much was because the other party was willing to keep cabinets, tables, chairs and other furniture.
If this house were to be sold, it would be great if it could sell for one thousand.
It's a pity that this house can't be sold, and Zhou Chen doesn't have that much cash, otherwise, he really wants to buy it.
"Bingkun, I'm going on a business trip next month, so I'll leave it to you to take charge of the magazine."
During the meeting in the club today, Shao Jingwen received a task and was going on a business trip, so he greeted Zhou Chen in advance.
