Chapter 405: Nothing But Mercenary
After receiving the message, Zhao Xiaojing immediately explained it in the store group, and chatted privately with Yun Yongyuan to assign him homework.
Yun Yongyuan has been learning kitchen management from Zhao Xiaojing recently, and has made some progress. However, Zhao Xiaojing has Xiaozhi and herself, so she has not trained him alone. But tomorrow will be the time.
Zhao Xiaojing directly instructed Yun Yongyuan to arrange the meal schedule for tomorrow and asked him to hand it over directly to Hou Guihua.
"??? Not Junior Sister? We didn't get any business done today because it was raining. If my arrangement is not good, won't we lose another day tomorrow?"
"How about I write a trial copy and you correct me if I find anything wrong?"
"I'll write it now! Don't just give it to me!"
Yun Yongyuan sent three messages in a row. Even through the screen, Zhao Xiaojing could feel his nervousness.
"I believe in you, keep going. I have something else to do, so just report it to Sister Hou directly." Zhao Xiaojing immediately gave up the task.
Yun Yongyuan is as cautious in doing things as he is in cooking. Even if he does a perfect job, he can only guarantee 60% of it. If I don't hand over the task to him directly, maybe when I arrive in Tuancheng, I will have to listen to his reports every day and worry about things in the store that he can decide on his own.
So the right solution is to give him a chance to exercise now.
Zhao Xiaojing directly blocked Yun Yongyuan's messages and calls.
"System, enter..."
"I want to ride my broken horse and cut my long hair~~"
The phone rang and the fried double crispy course was interrupted x 3.
How can he still call in? Didn't I just block him?
Zhao Xiaojing subconsciously thought it was Yun Yongyuan, and turned her head to reject the call directly, but when she saw it was Zhou Chuyan, she quickly picked up the phone again.
"Xiao Jing, let me talk to you first." As soon as the phone was connected, Zhou Chuyan's mysterious and low voice was heard.
"What?"
"I think my uncle and aunt are going to try to contact you during this time!"
"Me? Why?" Zhao Xiaojing asked curiously.
"Didn't you ask my mom to take my uncle to the hospital for a checkup last time? My uncle was reluctant at first, but he was forced to go by my mom today. As soon as he arrived at the hospital, he suddenly felt pain in his back and kept saying that there was a needle pricking his back. When the doctor heard it, he told him not to move and called for a stretcher to go into the operating room. After checking, he was diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction and some complications!"
"Is he saved?" Zhao Xiaojing was slightly surprised. She only remembered that it was around this time, but she didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that she caught him just in time for the physical examination.
"How did you know? You're amazing!" Zhou Chuyan exclaimed, then hurriedly lowered her voice, "My mother was scared to death. As soon as she entered the operating room, she was told that she needed a stent. Fortunately, they came just in time, and she is awake now."
"I guessed. If you can call me in this tone, then everything must be fine." Zhao Xiaojing smiled. "Then why did you contact me?"
"Well, it's all my fault for being too talkative... I just can't stand his cowardly look..."
"Ok?"
"I told you not to be angry. But it's normal for you to be angry." Zhou Chuyan hesitantly.
"Tell me what I am saying, then I will know if I am angry or not."
"When I came to the hospital, he was awake. My aunt also came and kept thanking my mom. My mom said that it was because of you that she remembered to take my uncle for a checkup and that she should thank you. But the couple acted as if they didn't hear anything and didn't ask about you at all. They just changed the subject and started thanking my mom again after a while, completely ignoring you. My mom was also angry, but she didn't say anything. She just told me to leave. But when I was leaving, my aunt brought it up again and said that she wanted my mom to have dinner after he was discharged from the hospital.
I couldn't help it at the time! I started to tease her, saying that some people were saved by others but didn't even get a word of concern, and I didn't know what they were afraid of. Others now have several stores, so what can I get from them? Do I want him to treat me to a meal?"
"Pfft!" Zhao Xiaojing couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Sister Yanyan, you are still so hateful and hateful. If you talk like this, Third Aunt will punish you again, right?"
"No, she was unhappy, so she glared at me and tried to drag me away. But when the two heard that, they stopped playing dead and started asking me what I meant. They asked if Xiao Jing had opened several stores and what kind of stores. My mother said it was a restaurant and it was even on TV. Then they started saying they wanted to thank you and that it was all thanks to your uncle that he saved my life. You don't know, my mother's face turned green when she heard that."
"Oh, so you are still in the hospital now?" Zhao Xiaojing asked.
"Well, my mom was so angry at that time. She said if you hadn't just had surgery, I would have scolded you to death. Today, seeing that you have survived, I don't bother to care about you. They started to act pitiful again, and now they are crying to my mom! I ran away because I couldn't bear to listen to their nagging."
"Third Aunt, you missed your physical examination today, remember to make it up next time and have a thorough checkup."
Zhao Xiaojing had no feelings for her uncle and aunt. Even if she had not asked for a physical examination in his previous life, her uncle's life would have been saved. She reminded Dong Mei to take him there simply because he was in the hospital and Dong Mei was busy all the time. Zhao Xiaojing just didn't want Dong Mei to work hard.
"That's right, my mother also said that I should get a physical check-up right away. Aren't you angry?" Zhou Chuyan asked curiously.
"I'm not angry. What does it have to do with me?" Zhao Xiaojing smiled faintly. "I no longer consider him a relative. For so many years, Third Aunt asked me to have dinner with her during the New Year. When did I ever go?"
"I know that, but I thought that you specifically told me that, no matter how you put it, you had good intentions. Besides, it was such a dangerous situation, he might have lost his life if you hadn't said that. But they just ignored my kindness!"
"You said that Third Aunt couldn't move half of her body, so I asked her to go get checked out. Then I remembered that they seemed to have a family history of the disease, so I took him along. He never hurt me anyway. He just wanted to get involved with me because he was afraid that I was poor. Now that he sees that I'm better, he's looking for me. He's just being mercenary. There's no need to be angry. It's normal for people to be short-sighted when they're poor. I won't pay any attention to him anyway."
"You are quite open-minded! But don't be too open-minded. If you don't even have a boyfriend by then, my mom will still be wondering if you have found a suitable one in Jiangcheng!"
"Hey, did my third uncle's family look for my third aunt again later?" Zhao Xiaojing felt a headache when she heard this topic and quickly diverted Zhou Chuyan's attention.
The topic change was a bit abrupt, but it still succeeded in keeping Zhou Chuyan silent for a while.
"They looked for her. Every two days they went to wait for her at the entrance of her workplace. Every time they did so they cried and scolded her. My mom was so annoyed that she took annual leave. They came home again after not waiting for her for several days, and my mom called the police again. Anyway, it was impossible to give them the money. My mom was also hurt this time. She pointed at my grandparents and scolded them. She didn't come as often this week." Zhou Chuyan sighed, "Okay, I'll go see if they've finished talking, and then I'll let you know."
