Chapter Ninety-Four: Lack of Money
After Zhao Qingzao finished speaking, he looked at Shen Changting, but he still saw his cold face, this expression, Zhao Qingzao is usually used to seeing it, but at this time, it just added fuel to the fire, but the anger in her heart that had dropped slightly rose sharply.
Why did Shen Changting pour cold water, wasn't he thinking about him? The person who poisoned him was him, but he didn't care about himself. Zhao Qingzao couldn't understand what the person in front of him was really thinking, ordinary people didn't know that they could have a glimmer of life after being poisoned, they would desperately try to keep themselves alive, and put it on Shen Changting, but it seemed like they wanted to harm him.
Seeing that his face was full of resistance, after Zhao Qingzao analyzed the pros and cons, he still did not waver or hesitate at all, this is determined to retract into the shell and not try.
Zhao Qingzao's temper has also come up, since people don't take themselves to heart and don't take themselves seriously, why should she worry so much about being an outsider.
Lying down on the bed and pulling the quilt up to cover his head, Zhao Qingzao didn't want to see this person now.
Looking at the sulking Zhao Qingzao, Shen Changting was full of helplessness, this was the first time he had seen Zhao Qingzao so angry, no matter what the situation was before, Zhao Qingzao just smiled and passed, at most he ignored people, but the anger came and went quickly, and he would immediately forget the reason for being angry.
This time it really disappointed her. Shen Changting could also understand Zhao Qingzao's mood, she really wanted to cure him, but he hadn't been lost to the difficulties encountered, so he gave up first. It's no wonder she gave birth to such a big start.
If it were possible, Shen Changting would of course also want to be healthy and stay with Zhao Qingzao for the rest of his life. It's just that Shen Changting smiled bitterly, it would be nice if it was such a simple thing.
He was stunned for a long time at the night outside the window, and after nightfall, the heat gradually dissipated, and the coolness gradually rose, winding around everything, Shen Changting came back to his senses, and the temperature of his fingertips was slightly cool.
Blowing out the oil lamp, Shen Changting folded his clothes and lay down, Zhao Qingzao moved, moved a little to the side, and still covered his head with the quilt.
Neither of them slept well all night, each thinking about their own thoughts, they didn't even turn over, they were silent and didn't speak until the second half of the night, when they were confused, but they didn't sleep well.
The next morning, the atmosphere was still not embarrassing or embarrassing, Zhao Qingzao made breakfast with a straight face, and the momentum forced people not to approach. Shen Changting wanted to talk to him several times to ease the atmosphere, but he was so frightened that he didn't dare to step forward and eat breakfast silently.
After eating, Zhao Qingzao didn't wait for him, and left directly, Shen Changting had to follow behind, and followed suit, but fortunately, he didn't meet anyone on the way, otherwise he didn't know how to answer.
Zhao Qingzao deliberately avoided it, and Shen Changting couldn't do anything, and when they arrived at the yamen, the two were not in the same place, so they had to separate first, let her calm down first, and now she probably couldn't listen to what she said. What's more, even if he gave Shen Changting a chance, he couldn't say any proper reason, but it added fuel to the fire.
Zhao Qingzao was angry all night, and at this time, the anger gradually dissipated, and the rest was three points of grievance, three points of unwillingness, three points of anger, and one point of incomprehension.
She tried her best to run for Shen Changting, go to the doctor, and find a way to raise money, but her mind was directly thrown to the ground and disdained. Thinking about it, his liver hurts, Zhao Qingzao raised the kitchen knife fiercely and chopped the meat on the cutting board.
I really can't figure it out, why Shen Changting refused, it doesn't look like he wants to commit suicide, but he refuses to go to the doctor, this kind of contradictory thought, no matter how you think about it, it's strange.
Just ignore him, since he has made a choice, let him bear the consequences himself! Zhao Qingzao thought while chopping meat, chopping the chopping board with a loud noise.
After chopping for a while, it gradually slowed down, and Zhao Qingzao sighed. This Shen Changting is also unlucky, he was poisoned again, and he was kicked out by his family, obviously he has a family, but it is better not to have one, just look at his life experience, I am afraid that no one in his family has ever cared about him.
A person who is alone outside to make a living, and his health is not good, if he doesn't even care about him, then Shen Changting will be really pitiful.
Zhao Qingzao added seasonings to the chopped meat and marinated it, and she wanted to make tiger skin peppers today. She couldn't help but think freely that Shen Changting was not good at eating spicy food, and when he made this dish at home, Zhao Qingzao would handle the chili peppers well, so as not to be unpalatable.
remembered that Shen Changting would give face no matter what he did, and eat it all. At the beginning, I didn't know the other party's preferences, Zhao Qingzao made mostly his favorite dishes, and Shen Changting was never picky, what to eat. Later, after getting along for a long time, she found that the eating habits of the two were very different.
At that time, she also complained that Shen Changting obviously didn't like it, why didn't he say it, and he always ate very happily, but now that she thinks about it, it is probably because she is the only person who is willing to cook for him, and what he cherishes is this heart.
He was reluctant to go to a miracle doctor because the consultation fee was too expensive. Now most of the family's income is earned by Zhao Qingzao, Shen Changting is probably a little uncomfortable in his heart? Zhao Qingzao thinks so, in the usual relationship, she can also feel that Shen Changting has some inferiority complex, and this inferiority complex comes from his own weakness.
For example, several times when he saw her approaching Chu Xingshan, Shen Changting was obviously unhappy. Now that Zhao Qingzao is still needed to make money desperately to save him, Shen Changting probably feels that his self-confidence has been hit.
Alas, Zhao Qingzao sighed, this person is really sentimental, and his mind is too detailed, so it is difficult to serve.
Forget it, as the saying goes, a husband and wife are 100 days a day. Although they are a little different from ordinary couples, they just live together, but they are so good that they are also eating in a pot and sleeping in the same bed, she can't see death without help, and let him give up the great opportunity because of a momentary retreat.
Since he is worried about the problem of money, wouldn't it be better for him to earn money first? When the time comes, he will just put the money in front of him, and he will have no reason to refute it.
After thinking about it, Zhao Qingzao felt that this idea was reliable, and to deal with this kind of indecisive and unassertive person, it was necessary to be quick and accurate, and give things down first.
Since Shen Changting can't make a decision, then it's up to her to decide for him.
After such a decision, Zhao Qingzao didn't care about Shen Changting's side first, first, her energy was limited, and now the top priority was to get together the consultation money, and she really didn't have so much extra energy, and then she would pay attention to solving Shen Changting's fragile lady's psychological problems. The second is that she still has some residual anger in her heart, she really can't understand Shen Changting's actions, and she definitely doesn't plan to accept it, so let him reflect on it in the corner.
The diagnosis fee alone is enough for Zhao Qingzao to have a headache. She took out all the money she had saved last night and counted it, it was just a small amount of savings, the miracle doctor sounded strange and greedy, this money was afraid that it was not enough, if she was halfway through the treatment, she suddenly said that the consultation money was not enough to stop, it was not a waste of work, and if you were unlucky, you would have to start again.
Therefore, it is safer to prepare a little more in advance, and not to mention the follow-up recuperation costs, maybe after Shen Changting detoxification, there will be a period of time when she needs to continue to take medicine, and she will need to recuperate and not be able to work, and then she will have to take care of him while working, which is also troublesome, so she simply saves enough money at one time, and there is no need to be in a hurry at that time.
Preserved eggs now mainly rely on orders from restaurants, and the sales volume is good, but the business of restaurants is almost fixed, and it is impossible to suddenly increase a lot. If you expand the scale of pickling and retail sales, it will not be implemented immediately for a while, and if you sell them on a small scale, there will not be much profit.
What kind of work does it have that comes quickly? Zhao Qingzao's mind was full of mountains of copper coins, silver mountains, and gold mountains one after another, and she stretched out her hand vigorously, but she was still a little close, and she couldn't reach it.
Thinking about money, Zhao Qingzao made lunch, got off work, and went home. It wasn't until she saw Grandma Niu passing by the door that a bold idea suddenly popped up.
Zhao Qingzao was waiting anxiously at home, and went directly to Grandma Niu's house, Grandma Niu was washing vegetables, Zhao Qingzao rolled up his sleeves and went up to help.
Grandma Niu was also very happy when she saw that it was Zhao Qingzao: "Aren't you busy this time, it's time to prepare dinner, and it will be time to get off work in the yamen later." ”
Zhao Qingzao said: "It's still early, just cook it casually, don't worry." ”
While the two were talking, Chu Xingshan came in from outside the door.
Grandma Niu hurriedly said, "You go to rest, wash your hands, and you will be able to eat immediately." As he spoke, he pushed Zhao Qingzao out: "You go out too, the kitchen is smoky, you go outside to talk." ”
Zhao Qingzao originally came to find Chu Xingshan, so he used the flower head by the way: "Okay, then I'll go out first." ”
Chu Xingshan was fetching water next to the well to wash his face, wiped it, the cool well water eliminated the fatigue of the day, and when he saw Zhao Qingzao coming over, he said hello.
Zhao Qingzao said straight to the point: "Brother Chu, I'm here to ask you for something." ”
"Oh?" Chu Xingshan was a little surprised, Zhao Qingzao has always been very assertive, in Chu Xingshan's eyes, she is a very capable woman, but she didn't expect that one day Zhao Qingzao would open her mouth and please: "Just say something directly, I will never shirk what I can do." I just don't know how I can help. ”
Zhao Qingzao said: "You can help me with this, there is really no one but you." Don't you often go into the mountains to hunt, and next time you can take me, I want to hunt some big game. ”
"Do you want to go hunting?" Chu Xingshan was taken aback: "No, no, I can't agree to this only thing." ”
Afraid that Zhao Qingzao would misunderstand, he explained: "It's not so easy to go into the mountains to hunt, and no one can figure out the situation in the mountains. The road is not easy to walk, and there are many fierce beasts in it, which are very thrilling. Generally, it's not that you can't get on without money, and no one in the village will go into the mountains like this. At most, you can pick some wild fruits near the mountains and catch some small animals, and if you want to catch the big ones, you have to go deep into the mountains, which is too dangerous. ”
Zhao Qingzao said with a smile: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger." I want money, but I don't want to take risks, where can there be such a good thing. Don't worry, I've been thinking about this danger for a long time, but I still want to try it, and I'll be careful not to trouble you. ”
Chu Xingshan was puzzled: "Why do you want to go hunting, isn't the business of preserved eggs very good recently? Except for what, you, are you short of money?"
"Yes," Zhao Qingzao sighed: "Something happened, I have to spend a lot of money, just relying on preserved eggs is not enough, and I have no choice but to trouble you." ”
