The incident with Liu Haizhong did not gradually subside until two months later.
The second aunt also returned home after being hospitalized for more than ten days. However, she has been hiding at home since she came back. She basically doesn't go out except when necessary, and she won't gossip or gossip with a group of women like she used to.
Most people in the courtyard try their best to avoid the Liu family when they see them, and don't talk to them if they can. It feels like they have isolated the Liu family.
In fact, this situation is quite normal. After all, if Liu Haizhong is in jail, he is a criminal. Chinese people still have some 'discrimination' against people in jail.
The Liu family used to be one of the best families in the courtyard because Liu Haizhong was a seventh-level worker and later became a leader. But now, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has plummeted.
Life in the Liu family was difficult, but in these years, life in other families was also difficult, so except for the first uncle Yi Zhonghai who was always "enthusiastic" and would often visit the second aunt, Qin Huairu also occasionally visited the second aunt.
Go and have a look.
Regarding the matter of Liu Haizhong being imprisoned, Yi Zhonghai also approached Zhou Chen in private and asked if this matter had anything to do with him, but Zhou Chen naturally rejected it.
Although this matter was indeed planned by him, it would be different if he said it. Of course he would not tell Yi Zhonghai. If Yi Zhonghai had doubts, let him doubt it. He would not admit it anyway.
As summer passes and autumn comes, the weather begins to get cooler, and the obvious change is that people wear more clothes.
"Zhou Chen, please help me take a look at Sophora japonica. She has been coughing and having a runny nose in the past two days. She seems to be sick."
Inside the house, Qin Huairu held her little daughter Huaihua and said to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen looked at Sophora japonica, asked her to open her mouth, and listened with the stethoscope for a while.
"Well, there's nothing wrong with my lungs. My tonsils are a little inflamed. I've caught a cold. It's probably due to the cold due to the change of season. It's not a big problem. I'll go back and take some medicine. Keep warm these two days."
Children are prone to illness due to their weak constitution, not to mention when the seasons change. Colds and fevers are common.
That is to say, modern medicine is developed and there are many drugs for treatment. In the backward ancient times, if colds and colds were not taken care of properly, it would be life-threatening.
Qin Huairu patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good. This child has been in poor health since he was a child and is particularly prone to getting sick."
When she was pregnant with little Sophora japonica, her husband died unexpectedly, and she was so sad that she caused fetal contractions. As a result, Little Sophora japonica's physical condition has been inferior to that of her older brothers and sisters since she was a child.
In the past, when little Huaihua fell ill, she had to take her to the small hospital in the alley. Now that Zhou Chen is in the hospital, it is much more convenient to see a doctor.
"Zhou Chen, I feel that your ability to treat patients is very good. Even the experts in big hospitals may not be as good as you."
This is her personal experience. For more than half a year, many people around her have seen Zhou Chen for medical treatment, and their illnesses can basically be cured with medicine. Even big hospitals may not be able to match this efficiency.
"It's not as exaggerated as you said. I only look at simple illnesses. For serious illnesses, I still go to the hospital."
Zhou Chen knows his medical skills, but he doesn't treat all diseases. He will treat minor problems and minor problems.
But if it was a serious illness, he would basically ask someone to go to the hospital for treatment, not because he didn't like it, but because he didn't want to cause trouble.
How can I put this kind of thing into perspective? If you look at it well, it may not necessarily end well, but if you don't look at it well, you might get into a lot of trouble.
At this time, he did not want to get into such trouble, so he recommended patients to go to large hospitals for diagnosis and treatment of more troublesome diseases.
"Zhou Chen, have you heard about Xu Damao's matter?"
"What's up?"
"It's about him, my cousin Jingru, and Yu Haitang. Xu Damao is a bastard and doesn't do human affairs. When he divorced Lou Xiao'e, he said he wanted to marry Jingru, but after Yu Haitang came, he
He actually started pursuing Yu Haitang again and abandoned Jingru. He is simply a scum."
Listening to Qin Huairu's indignant curses, Zhou Chen was not surprised.
Yu Haitang came to their hospital not long ago. She said she broke up with her boyfriend and was making a big fuss, so she came to their hospital to get some peace and quiet.
Yu Haitang is also a popular figure in the steel rolling mill. Because he is beautiful and has good communication skills, he has been dating many people in the past few years, but the latest one is the most promising, but he did not expect that the negotiation fell apart in the end.
.
Yu Haitang didn't stop when he came to the courtyard. He inexplicably set his sights on the old bachelor He Yuzhu, but was soon fascinated by Xu Damao's sweet words.
Of course, this may also be because Yu Haitang saw that Xu Damao was divorced and the conditions were good, so she was moved and agreed to Xu Damao's pursuit.
Xu Damao was also a person who changed his mind when he saw things different. Yu Haitang's conditions were much better than Qin Jingru's, so after he made a comparison, he abandoned Qin Jingru mercilessly.
"Zhou Chen, do you think Xu Damao is a bastard? He had a good relationship with you before, but he helped the second uncle frame you, and now he has done this again. He is such a bastard."
Zhou Chen said: "So, what do you want to say?"
Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Zhou Chen, you are the smartest person in our courtyard. What do you think we should do so that Xu Damao will marry Jingru?"
Zhou Chen said: "If you want to say who knows Xu Damao best in our courtyard, it must be Sha Zhu. You should go to Sha Zhu to discuss it, not me."
Qin Huairu looked unhappy: "Si Zhu was fascinated by that Yu Haitang, and his brain is good with hands, but not with brains. Zhou Chen, please help me think of a way."
Zhou Chen looked at her blankly: "Sister Qin, you are so smart, I believe you can think of a solution without my help, so I won't add to this mess."
Having watched the TV series, he naturally knew what methods Qin Huairu would use to subdue Xu Damao, so he didn't come up with any ideas.
Qin Huairu suddenly said softly: "Zhou Chen, just think of it as helping sister, help sister find a way."
But Zhou Chen was unmoved: "Sister Qin, if it is to treat a doctor and save someone, I can still help, but I really can't think of a way to do this. I don't even have a partner myself, and I don't understand the relationship between men and women."
Matters of time.”
Qin Huairu rolled her eyes coquettishly: "If someone else said this, I might still believe it, but I don't believe you."
"I heard that the third uncle wanted to introduce you to Teacher Ran before, but you refused. Yu Haitang, who lives in our hospital now, seems to have shown kindness to you, but you didn't care at all. This
For more than half a year, there are still many people who want to marry you, but you have rejected them all."
"To be honest, I really don't understand. Teacher Ran's conditions were so good, and Yu Haitang's conditions were also good. Why can't you like both of them? Are you too high-minded?"
She is really curious, she has been here before, and it stands to reason that there are not many young men like Zhou Chen who don't want women.
But Zhou Chen was different, and he was different from Silly Zhu, so the possibility she could think of was that Zhou Chen's vision was too high and he was too picky.
At this point, she persuaded her with sincerity: "Zhou Chen, you are in good condition and you should have high vision, but you can't have too high vision. After marriage, you just need to live a good life and find the one that suits you."
Zhou Chen said in a calm tone: "As you said, I just haven't met the right one yet. Sister Qin, Huaihua is sleepy. Please take her back to sleep."
Qin Huairu lowered her head and saw Sophora japonica in her arms who was nodding and dozing off. He immediately picked her up and didn't stay any longer.
"Zhou Chen, thank you very much for today. I'll leave first."
After saying that, he hugged Sophora japonica and left.
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and Qin Huairu did indeed have a method. Just like in the TV series, she helped Qin Jingru deceive Xu Damao and break up Xu Damao and Yu Haitang with the fake pregnancy, so that Xu Damao had to do it for the sake of the child.
Married Qin Jingru.
Qin Jingru also moved into the courtyard as she wished. In fact, she had lived in the courtyard for a long time, but this time it was different. She moved in as Xu Damao's wife. She was considered an owner of the courtyard and was no longer a guest.
But Qin Huairu miscalculated in the end. Her original intention in helping Qin Jingru was that she wanted Qin Jingru to help their family after marrying Xu Damao.
But after Qin Jingru got married to Xu Damao, her mentality changed. She listened to Xu Damao and didn't help Qin Huairu at all. Not to mention giving money, she didn't even give her a piece of food. An angry Qin Huairu scolded her many times.
Wolf, heartless...
A few months later!
After the Spring Festival, there was another heavy snowfall, and the earth was covered with a white quilt.
Zhou Chen didn't go to work today and had nothing to do. He walked around Sijiu City alone. On his way back, he passed by a street and suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Not far away, a man wrapped in a cotton coat was struggling to sweep the snow on the ground with a big broom, one after another...
"Teacher Ran."
Ran Qiuye heard the voice, looked up, and immediately beamed with joy: "Zhou Chen, it's you."
"Well, are you okay?" Zhou Chen asked.
Ran Qiuye naturally heard what Zhou Chen meant. Because he was sweating while sweeping the floor, his cheeks were red even in winter.
"It's not bad. Although I can't be a teacher or take classes now, I still stay in the city and it's okay. It's much better than many people."
There was a smile on her face, but Zhou Chen could see that there was sadness and hard work behind her smile.
A teacher who is truly dedicated to education cannot teach students and can only sweep the streets. This is a huge blow to her.
But as she said, although her current situation is not good, she is countless times luckier than those who have suffered.
Zhou Chen comforted him with a soft tone: "The hard days will eventually pass, Teacher Ran. I believe you will have the opportunity to teach students again in the future."
"I hope so."
Life in the past few months has made Ran Qiuye somewhat disheartened, but Zhou Chen's comfort still made her feel a lot better.
Zhou Chen chatted with Ran Qiuye for a while, and then Ran Qiuye ended the chat with Zhou Chen on the grounds that he was busy.
To be continued...
