Chapter 8: For the sake of my daughter

Chen Zhi made a special meal today, and several dishes were all his mother's favorite food in his memory, when his father was still alive, so he hoped that this would stimulate his mother to return to normal.

"Chen Zhi, mom is back, you're hungry, I'll cook for you......" Chen's mother came back from work and repeated the words at this time of the day again.

Chen Zhi was already ready, and immediately stepped forward to pull his mother to the dining table: "Mom, I've already cooked the meal, come and eat!" ”

"Huh?" Mother Chen was pulled by Chen Zhi like this, she was stunned for a moment, swept to the dining table on the side, and soon saw that the food on the table had obviously just been prepared, and it was still steaming.

Chen Zhi just watched Chen's mother stay on the side for a few seconds, this situation made his heart beat faster, how much he hoped that his mother would return to normal immediately.

But it's still a pity that after Chen's mother stayed for a few seconds, she came to the dining table again as usual and began to eat silently, not expressing any opinion on Chen Zhi's cooking at all.

"......" Faced with this situation, Chen Zhi could only sigh secretly.

Early the next morning, Chen Zhi got up, but instead of preparing breakfast for his mother, he immediately went to the vegetable market. The reason for this is that he doesn't want to make his mother, who is already numb, more serious, and he wants to make her face an irregular life from time to time.

When he came to the grocery store, Chen Zhi was about to hand over more than 3,000 yuan to the store owner, but when he walked to the door, he suddenly saw a recruitment note on the side of the door.

"The grocery store is looking for a handyman!" Chen Zhi only felt that God helped me, and he was worried about how to repay the 500 yuan in medical expenses.

"Boss, this is Sister Qianqian's salary in the hospital, give it to you to ......" Chen Zhi came to the container, immediately handed over the money, and immediately said without waiting for the boss to be puzzled: "Boss, are you looking for someone here, do you think I'm good?" ”

Chen Zhi said with a stupid demeanor.

Although Chen Zhi lives in this area, not everyone knows the situation of their family, and they don't know that he is mentally retarded, but he used to come here often to buy things, and the boss knows about their family's situation.

The grocery store owner immediately knew what was going on when he heard Chen Zhi say it so simply, but he was a little puzzled how Qianqian's salary would be brought by this stupid boy. But he put the matter aside for the time being, and swept his eyes over the job posting outside the door.

"You're coming here to work??" The boss was obviously surprised, and it was strange to think that a mentally retarded child would find a job on his own.

Chen Zhi didn't say much, and nodded again and again.

But seeing Chen Zhi so sure, the boss shook his head directly in his heart, the reason why he urgently needed to recruit people was naturally not an ordinary person, but a laborer who came to help him unload and move goods late at night a few days a week.

Just look at Chen Zhi's thin arms and legs, he is still mentally retarded, not to mention that he has no kindness, it is really unlikely.

But before he could speak, a number of guests came one after another, shouting one by one. Seeing this, he could only hurry to greet the guests.

Chen Zhi was well-informed in his previous life, he was naturally very clever, and when he saw that he had something to do, he immediately regarded himself as an employee and actually began to help guests with things.

When the boss came back to his senses, he saw Chen Zhizheng helping a guest carry a bucket of water and gradually walk away.

Seeing this scene, he was speechless, but he was still secretly preparing, and as soon as Chen Zhi came back, he immediately said it to him.

But during this free time, Chen Zhi didn't show up until he was busy again, Chen Zhi suddenly didn't know where to come from, and he was busy jumping up and down outside the store, really like an employee in this store, the boss was busy answering the phone, and he couldn't stop him at all.

That's it, when the boss finally had time to question Chen Zhi, it was already time to finish eating, only to see Chen Zhi say stupidly: "Boss, I'll go back to eat first, and come back after eating!" After saying that, the smoke disappeared.

is also waiting for Chen Zhi to eat, and the owner of the grocery store here has also arrived. He made his way to the back hall and sat down at the table where the meal had already been prepared, somewhat tired.

"Where's Qianqian?" Seeing that only his wife was sitting at the table, the boss asked.

I saw a young and beautiful woman sitting at the dinner table, who was the boss's wife and Zhang Qianqian's mother. He originally kept a smile on his face when he greeted the boss for dinner, but when he heard him mention his daughter, his face suddenly became gloomy.

"He took the food to the room and ate it...... Qianqian's mother said, and put down the chopsticks, seemingly lacking an appetite.

"Hey, this kid ......"

It seems that as soon as their daughter Qianqian was mentioned, the couple became heavy, only to hear Qianqian's mother be silent and suddenly said: "His father, this time Qianqian was sent back by the county hospital, and she will ...... in the future" Halfway through the words, they were interrupted by the man in front of them.

I heard the boss suddenly say with a firm face: "I have already thought about it, and when the last time of this year's store is finished, I will transfer the store out!" As he spoke, he saw his teeth clenched, as if he were looking at death.

The latter was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but feel sad: "Only in this way can Qianqian's illness be found out as soon as possible, and if her illness can be cured, my heart can be at ease!" As he spoke, his eyes were moist.

When the two of them said this, they began to eat silently and slowly, until they were about to get up after eating, the man at the table seemed a little abrupt and spit out a sentence: "I owe money to my relatives, I will find a way, you don't have to worry about it anymore!" After saying that, he immediately got up and walked towards the front hall storefront.

Speaking of which, in this huge vegetable market, their Zhangji grocery store is also famous far and near, the store has developed from the original noodle restaurant of the previous generation decades ago, which can be said to have a long history, and they feel that their family must have a lot of savings, but few people know that they are already in debt in order to treat their daughter Zhang Qianqian.

Those who know a little bit of the inside story naturally know that their beautiful daughter, who is like a flower, is actually mentally ill, and I heard that she often talks to the air nervously alone, and sometimes looks at others with very impolite and strange eyes.

No, although their family has been hiding it from the outside world, but the paper can't hold the fire, Zhang Qianqian originally did a good job as a nurse in the county hospital, but she was sent back by the hospital because of the exposure of this disease.

So originally, there were a few familiar people around here who valued her, and they were going to find a matchmaker to tell their son, but now they don't want to, just kidding, who would be stupid enough to let their son marry a mentally abnormal girl?

Therefore, Chen Zhi's guess seems to be right, Zhang Qianqian is indeed sick.

……

In the evening, Chen Zhi finished eating, kept his promise, and hurried to the grocery store. He almost regarded himself as a member of the grocery store, and he actually greeted customers and sorted out the goods while the boss was busy.

The boss was originally not ready to accept Chen Zhi from the bottom of his heart, but seeing that Chen Zhi was doing things with a clear eye and no chaos, he couldn't help but be shaken by it, plus this kid had just helped him out of the siege not long ago, so he felt that although he looked a little stupid, he was also reliable in doing things seriously.

Thinking about it again, his family has reached the end of the road, and the decades-old store has been lost, so it is better to give this child a chance at this time, which can be regarded as accumulating a little virtue in advance for his daughter's illness.
