Chapter 121: Door-to-door gifts
After all, both children fell into the water because of the fat boy.
Although Tian Hailuo was dissatisfied, there was nothing he could do. The village chief had already spoken, so he had to pay the money.
And his family really has to pay for the medicine and medical fees. If they don't pay for the medicine and medical fees, the skinny boy's parents (Zhao Dagui and Zhao Sun) will probably come to settle the bill with them.
At this time, Doctor Li explained some precautions and wrote out a prescription. He was asked to get the medicine, decoct it, and take it immediately.
The parents of the two children immediately took the prescription to get the medicine.
The child was quickly taken home, but the matter was not over yet.
The quarrel lasted for a few days afterwards, and naturally Zhao Dagui asked Tian Hailuo's family to pay for the subsequent medicine and compensation.
Zhao Guocheng didn't care about this. The key point was that his daughter was doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, and there was nothing wrong with her, so Zhao Guocheng would not get involved.
What's more, these few days are very busy and the workshop is already rushing to make progress.
However, Zhao Guocheng told Wang Ronghua and Zhao Shimin not to go out and play.
Three days later.
Zhao Dagui and Zhao Sunshi brought the skinny child to Zhao Laoer's house at the end of the village.
"Brother Zhao, sister-in-law, you are all at home. This is a little gift for me. I hope you will accept it. I was worried about the children before and didn't have time to take care of it." After Zhao Dagui finished speaking, he handed over the things in his hand.
"This... is too valuable. We can't accept it. Fortunately, the children are all fine. This is our greatest luck. Take the things back. We appreciate the kindness. It's not easy for everyone now. Don't waste money." Zhao Guocheng declined.
I sincerely think so too. There is no need to give gifts. After all, they are all children.
Zhao Dagui also thanked the villagers who had brought the skinny boy back from the river, and brought a piece of meat. He also brought a piece of meat to Zhao Daya's family. Although it was not much, it was a token of his love, and it was considered that their family was very generous.
After all, he is my only son, so I value him very much.
"Brother Zhao, if you don't accept it, it means you look down on me. Are you afraid that we will have a relationship with you?" Zhao Dagui said pretending to be angry.
"How can that be? It's too serious. That's not what I meant. Your child was frightened and drowned, so you should take some supplements. Take it back and give it to your child. We really appreciate your kindness." Zhao Guocheng shook his head and refused to take it.
"Please accept it. We will feel bad if you refuse it again. It's just a small token of our gratitude for saving your child's life. Don't think it's too small." After saying this, Zhao Sun took the gift from Zhao Dagui and then handed it to Wang Ronghua who was behind Zhao Guocheng.
"Mrs. Zhao, I will be very angry if you don't accept it. Let's not talk about what happened this time. Even if we count from our ancestors, you are still our relatives. I can't repay you for saving my life. It's not right to refuse a gift." After saying this, Mrs. Zhao Sun let go of her hand.
This was the first time that Wang Ronghua had such close contact with Zhao Sun.
I didn't have much contact with her before, but I didn't expect that today I felt that Zhao Sun was a generous and straightforward person.
"Then I won't be polite. Come in and sit down." Wang Ronghua greeted.
"Okay!" Zhao Sun said with a smile, and walked inside taking the little skinny boy's hand.
Zhao Dagui finally breathed a sigh of relief and followed with a smile without any hesitation.
Soon Wang Ronghua brought out brown sugar water and a lot of snacks and pastries.
"Eat it, little skinny boy. You are really thin." Wang Ronghua took a piece of osmanthus cake and handed it to the little skinny boy.
The skinny boy looked at it eagerly but didn't dare to take it. It was not until he saw his mother nod that he happily thanked her and took the cake.
"Yeah, I'm worried too. This child can't gain weight. Maybe it's because there's nothing delicious at home." Zhao Sun shook her head and said a little melancholy.
"Buy more delicious food for him on a daily basis, and he will surely gain weight slowly. It is said that those who survive a great disaster will be blessed in the future. This skinny little boy is lucky." Zhao Guocheng said.
"That's really a good omen from you." Zhao Sun smiled and nodded.
"Actually, we came here today for two reasons: one is to express our gratitude, and the other is to ask whether you will recruit workers after your workshop is built?" Zhao Dagui paused here, feeling embarrassed to continue.
"Let me say it." Zhao Sun took one look at Zhao Dagui and knew that this man couldn't say it. What else could she do? She would say it!
"We just want to ask, if you need to recruit workers after your workshop is built, can we be counted as one? Our men will never be lazy at work." Zhao Sun said with a red face, feeling very embarrassed.
But in order to improve their family's life and earn more money, they had to give up their face.
Zhao Guocheng and Wang Ronghua looked at each other and then smiled.
"Of course we do. And we want not only men to do the work, we will also recruit a few women. We haven't thought about the specific details yet, but we will definitely notify the whole village when we recruit workers." Wang Ronghua said with a smile.
"However, the people who help us build the workshop this time will be given priority. After all, we have contacted them before and we know they are reliable. If you want to come in and work, come to my workshop tomorrow to help out. Your wages will be calculated tomorrow, and you will be provided with one lunch a day." Zhao Guocheng said after thinking for a while.
In fact, there are many honest and decent men in the village, and Zhao Guocheng and Zhao Dagui have a good relationship. Although they don’t have much contact on weekdays, they know each other and are well-known honest people.
This is the first time I've taken the initiative to speak up.
"Okay, I will definitely come." said Zhao Dagui.
"In fact, we are not sure how many people we will hire for the workshop, but the workshop will definitely take a long time to build, so you might as well do this job first, which can be regarded as training." Zhao Guocheng said.
"Okay, okay." Zhao Dagui grinned. As long as he could make money, he would definitely not cheat or do anything dishonest.
Zhao Sun glanced at Zhao Dagui and smiled helplessly. What an honest man!
Wang Ronghua thought these two were interesting. They were similar to him and Ah Cheng, both of them were strong women and weak men.
This 'strong woman and weak man type' refers to the situation where the man in the family listens to his wife in terms of personality. In other words, the rough man is stronger than his wife, but he is considerate of his wife and lets her make the decision. This is not a true strong woman and weak man situation.
The two sat for a while and then said goodbye and left.
"Acheng, have you ever met Zhao Dagui before? What do you think of him?" Wang Ronghua asked.
"He is an honest man," Zhao Guocheng commented, otherwise he would not have let him build a workshop.
He knew all the sneaky and cunning people in the village.
"That's fine. It's about time. You should go to the workshop." Wang Ronghua said and started to wash the mushrooms.
"Yeah." Zhao Guocheng said and stood up.
They had just finished breakfast and Zhao Guocheng wanted to go out, but Zhao Dagui and his wife happened to come. It was a good coincidence, otherwise Zhao Guocheng would have gone to the workshop to work.
