Rebirth Era: The Miracle Doctor Jiaojiao is Beautiful and Cool

Chapter 8 Food That Even Pigs Wouldn't Eat

"What explanation do you want? The penalty was set by the police station, so go to the police station." Gu Huaiming was very angry. He had advised his granddaughter to keep quiet last night, and it was very disgraceful that the Zhou family came to his house to ask for an explanation today.

Zhou Xiaoshan took out a cigarette from his pocket with a dark face, took out a cigarette and handed it to the old man, "Nanxing and Xiaomin are still young. They are just playing around. Don't be too angry, uncle."

Gu Huaiming didn't answer the phone, but walked straight to his wife, pulling her aside to check if she was injured. "You're still so competitive even when you're old."

Old Lady Wang broke free from the old man's grip, tied her messy gray hair back, and continued to curse with her hands on her hips, "We have nothing to do with the death of that little hoof Zhou Huimin. If you want to make a scene, go to the police station. We can't arrest anyone. Get out of here! We don't have relatives like you in the Gu family."

"Oh, aunt, that's not what you said. Xiaoqing has been married to your family for so many years and has given birth to two children. What you said is absolutely hurtful." Peacemaker Zhou Laoda patiently comforted his uncle and aunt, saying that his sister must not be wronged no matter what.

This was true, and Old Lady Wang nodded in agreement. "The Zhou family has only the elders who are good at talking. Don't worry, I know you are a good person and I also accept Xiaoqing as my daughter-in-law."

Before Mrs. Zhou could even take a step, she was stopped by Zhou Laoer, who warned his mother with his eyes not to act rashly. The relationship had finally been eased by the eldest brother, and maybe if the eldest brother took action, it would work.

After the fighting subsided, Gu Nanxing politely brought stools to everyone and told them to sit down and talk if they had anything to say, since Joey Wong couldn't come out anyway.

"Aunt, we are a family and we should keep our word. If the child makes a mistake, it is our fault. It is the second child who failed to educate the child well. Xiao Min's offense this time is serious and she needs to be fined 50,000 yuan. Xiao Min was detained in the police station for one night. She has suffered the punishment and paid the fine. Do you think you can go to the police station in person to ask for leniency?" Boss Zhou told the truth.

Gu Huaiming was shocked, "So much fine?"

Fifty thousand! Even if the Gu family sold their houses, land and forests, they wouldn’t get that much.

"Of course not, I went to the police station myself." Qian Xiuyun, who didn't react for a moment, glanced at Old Man Gu arrogantly, "Poor guy, you have seen so many great unity in your two lifetimes."

Phew~ Gu Nanxing laughed out loud in an unkind way.

"What are you laughing at, you silly girl?" Qian Xiuyun stood up. Xiao Min suffered because of her!

Old Mrs. Zhou also glared at me.

Gu Nanxing carried a small stool over to his grandmother and said, "Grandma, the police officer who was sending Yuzhu Tianjiao and me back yesterday said Zhou Huimin was fined 20,000 yuan and detained for six months. How come the fine amount is different from what my uncle said?"

Twenty thousand becomes fifty thousand...

Qian Xiuyun reacted and looked at her husband, "Yes, when I went to the police station, they clearly wanted 20,000 yuan."

"What? Xiaoshan, you took 50,000 from me last night!"

Mrs. Zhou rushed towards her second son in anger, her hands trembling as she pointed at him. "You damned child, how dare you cheat me of my money..."

The money was earned by the eldest son of the Zhou family from the canteen, and the second son never handed over a penny. The eldest son and his wife were very upset and looked at the second brother in disbelief, asking for an explanation.

That bitch was very smart when she was playing mahjong, but she's being stupid now!
Zhou Xiaoshan panicked for a moment before calming down. "Mom, I was thinking of getting an extra 30,000 yuan to redeem Xiaomin from the six months she was detained, but the police station said no. I got home too late last night and didn't have time to return the remaining money to you."

I believe your lies. The second child is well-educated and has many tricks up his sleeve.

Old Mrs. Zhou glared and said, "Stop playing dumb and return it to me right away."

"Yes, yes, yes..." Zhou Xiaoshan replied readily. What kind of son is being taught? Old Lady Wang despised him. Although the Gu family was poor, when the Nanxing aunts were still married, they wouldn't lose a dollar if they put it on the table.

"Auntie has made a fool of herself in front of you. Let's get back to Xiao Min's matter..." Boss Zhou continued to mediate, changing the subject.

Seeing her eldest brother's lips almost drooping with talk, Zhou Xiaoqing silently stood up and poured herself a glass of water. It wasn't easy for her eldest brother, running the grocery store from dawn to dusk, delivering groceries, and taking care of her and her sisters since they were young. If she had any lasting feelings for the Zhou family, it would be gratitude to her eldest brother.

There was nothing good to treat the Zhou family at noon, so they only served a pot of sweet potato porridge, cucumbers picked from the yard, fried sweet potato leaves, and potato slices, three green vegetables.

Old Lady Wang did it on purpose!

"I'm sorry, dear relatives, we farmers don't have anything good to treat you, so just eat whatever you want."

Boss Zhou felt a little sad. Third sister eats these every day after getting married?
"I don't want to eat it. If you want to eat it, you guys can eat it. I have something to do and need to go back to the city." Qian Xiuyun went out with her coin purse on her back. She would never eat something that even pigs wouldn't eat.

"Aunt, I still have to use my connections to see if I can get Xiaomin out. I'll leave first." Zhou Xiaoshan followed his wife out.

Old Mrs. Zhou pulled her eldest daughter-in-law and followed without saying a word.

Only the honest uncle sat at the table, "Uncle, aunt, it's a rare visit, I won't be polite."

Zhou Xiaoqing couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so she pulled her mother-in-law out to discuss it. After a while, she came out of the warehouse with a large bowl filled with half a piece of braised meat in oil.

Old Lady Wang sat down in front of the stove and added a handful of firewood. "Mr. Zhou, you are a reasonable person. Your mother and your second brother and his sister are all unreasonable. Don't get involved in Xiao Min's affairs. You have to bear the consequences of your own actions."

Gu Nanxing obediently served rice to his uncle, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, what a good uncle, how come he and his mother were born in such a family.

After dinner, Gu Huaiming was too busy to entertain Boss Zhou, so he went to the utility room to get out some herbs to clean up, still cursing his granddaughter for being a spendthrift.

Boss Zhou is a person who can't sit still, so he helps the old man to wash the herbs with water.

At sunset, the village chief passed by on a tricycle, and Zhou Xiaoqing was already waiting at the door, waving at him.

My uncle worked hard all day but my grandparents didn't agree, so he had to return empty-handed.

After dinner, Gu Nanxing helped his grandfather prepare the herbs. His professionalism made Gu Huaiming laugh. "Nanxing finally did a good thing today!"

Gu Nanxing: “…”

Zhou Xiaoqing planted two orchids in clay pots and watered them with a gourd ladle. "Nanxing, if you take good care of these two orchids until they bloom, you can sell them for at least two thousand yuan."

"What? Two flowers are so expensive?" Old Mrs. Wang, who was peeling corn, threw away the corn cob in her hand and took a look curiously.

Zhou Xiaoqing smiled knowingly, "Yes, Mom, people in the city like to grow some flowers and plants. I once went to the flower and bird market with my mentor to buy orchids, but the quality was not as good as these two pots."

"Good boy, from now on, whenever Old Man Gu goes to look for herbs, I'll go too and look for orchids to sell." Old Mrs. Wang came back as excited as if she had been given chicken blood, peeling corn quickly, full of energy.
