Chapter 623 Keeping an Appointment
Qiao Chunyan is an ordinary worker in the local suburbs. She is a carefree person and works as a technician in a bathhouse, massaging people's feet and backs.
I have met many people in my daily life. Although they have low cultural level, they are quite knowledgeable.
I met Li Wanying today. Although I don't know where she is from, her accent is not local. And from her temperament and conversation, I can tell that she is a qualified and well-educated person.
After she suggested coming to her house tomorrow, the other party agreed without any hesitation, which surprised and delighted Qiao Chunyan.
She doesn't necessarily want to get something from the other person, she is happy to make friends with this person who she has only met once.
Although she has a low level of education, she has deeply understood one thing after working as a waitress for a long time: more friends mean more paths, and it is always good to make friends. Moreover, she can better understand what the outside world is like through Li Wanying.
If you ever need to go to the other person’s city, the friends you make today might come in handy.
So after getting off work and returning home, Qiao Chunyan told her family that Li Wanying was coming over as a guest the next day.
This was the first time that friends from other places came to our house. My family was a little nervous when they found out, because in Photon Film, a poor place, the facilities were not perfect and the house was shabby. What if they left a bad impression on others?
Qiao Chunyan said indifferently: "Dad, don't worry about this or that. I'm not the kind of person who looks down on others. If I were that kind of person, would I be willing to be friends with me?"
"I'm a foot masseur. No matter how well off my family is, how good can it be? I'm not a fool and I'm sure I'll make my own judgment. Since you've agreed, let's not be shy."
"And I'm telling you, if someone agrees to be friends with me, it's only because they like me at first sight. If we have other intentions, then we can't be friends anymore, so let's just do what we have to do tomorrow."
"If you really don't know what to do, I have a day off tomorrow, so I can just take her out to play."
Although Qiao Chunyan seems careless and doesn't understand the ways of the world, she is actually a careful person.
Seeing this, the others had no choice but to agree.
at the same time.
At the bathhouse, the two big men who had previously planned to have a go spent some money and sent someone into the bathhouse to inquire about the person Qiao Chunyan had served before.
After some understanding, I have a general idea of the situation.
The two looked at each other...
"What we can be sure of now is that those two are stupid people with lots of money and like to show off. They will go to Qiao Chunyan's house tomorrow. What should we do specifically?"
"Well... I'm worried now. If Qiao Chunyan keeps playing with them, what should we do? If we take action directly, will Qiao Chunyan's loud voice cause us trouble?"
"That's a problem. How about this? Let's scare them with some weapons tomorrow, and don't stop after we get the money..."
"We'll see then."
.........
Li Zhenmin and Li Wanying had no idea that they had been targeted. When they returned to the guesthouse, the waiter immediately discussed the car repair matter and reported it truthfully.
The car has now been towed to the repair shop, but the problem is that it may take some time to repair it because the parts need to be replaced, but they are out of stock here and we need to look for them.
It will probably take two or three days at the earliest.
Li Zhenmin didn't have much of an opinion on this, but Li Wanying couldn't wait and asked anxiously, "Can it be quick? Can't we find it tomorrow? We still have to go to the countryside for work!"
The waiter looked at Li Zhenmin helplessly.
Li Zhenmin thought for a moment, told where he was going, and asked, "Is there a car we can rent? We plan to go there tomorrow. If everything goes well, we can come back the day after tomorrow."
The waiter said in embarrassment: "If you want to rent a car, I know a few people who can take you there, but it has started snowing outside and it is difficult to drive. If you really need to go there urgently, you can only rent a donkey or a mule to ride there."
Upon hearing this, Li Zhenmin looked out the window and saw that it had indeed begun to snow.
If the snow is thick, the car will definitely not be able to go there, and you have to ride a horse or a donkey. Thirty or forty miles may seem not far, but it is actually not close if the road is difficult to travel.
He himself is fine, but Li Wanying may not be able to bear being frozen on the road for several hours.
Li Wanying also heard the hidden meaning and immediately assured him, "Brother, it's okay. It's just riding a donkey. I can do it. I've ridden a horse before. Don't worry, I'm fine."
Seeing that Li Zhenmin was somewhat reluctant, she quickly added: "Brother, please don't think of me as so delicate, okay? Women have menstrual periods. Some women go to the fields to fish during their menstrual periods. Some women even carry loads with big bellies when they are pregnant. I just feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach. Riding a donkey is not like going to the execution ground. Besides, I am an adult. If I really can't stand it, can I still be strong on my own?"
This is the truth, but Li Zhenmin is still very doting on his sister.
Seeing Li Wanying's insistence, Li Zhenmin had no choice but to say, "Let's wait and see tomorrow. Go back to your room first. I'll give you a silver needle and take your pulse tomorrow morning. If you cooperate well, you might be well tomorrow morning."
"Then hurry up." Upon hearing this, Li Wanying pulled Li Zhenmin and walked towards the room.
Li Zhenmin said speechlessly: "Don't be so anxious, let me write a prescription first."
Then he asked the waiter to find a pen and paper, wrote a prescription for the treatment of dysmenorrhea and handed it to the waiter, and instructed: "Prepare the medicine carefully and send it over when it's done. Also, get hot water from two households and bring a hot water bottle. If you don't have a hot water bottle, get a few clean glass bottles."
The waiter knew what these were for and immediately assured him earnestly: "Okay, okay, I'll do it for you right away."
After saying that, he ran off to do his work.
Li Zhenmin and Li Wanying returned to their room and started acupuncture treatment.
.........
the next day.
After last night's conditioning, Li Wanying slept soundly. Because of the hot water bottle, she was warm the whole night. When she woke up this morning, she felt refreshed.
After washing up and drinking a bowl of brown sugar water, Li Zhenmin took Li Wanying's pulse again and felt that she was almost recovered.
Li Wanying said dissatisfiedly: "I have already told you that it is almost done. Why do you have to be so careful? Don't I know my own situation? Besides, it is already the fourth day. Even if I don't do this, I will be fine in two days."
Hearing this, Li Zhenmin was stunned, his eyes widened and he said, "It's the fourth day? So you've already started before we even set out? You've come all the way here like this? You're really not afraid of death, are you?"
Li Wanying realized that she had let the cat out of the bag, and quickly changed her expression and said coquettishly: "I was wrong, I was wrong, don't be angry, but it's really not that serious."
Li Zhenmin was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
Driving thousands of miles during menstruation, is this something human beings do? Do they really think it is a flat highway?
But there was no point in getting angry now, so he finally warned her harshly: "Next time if you do this again I will lock you up and let Dad give you a good beating."
When Li Wanying thought about what would happen if Li Tieguo found out, she begged for mercy: "No, no, no, I'll be obedient. Don't tell Dad. I promise, I promise that this kind of thing will never happen again."
Seeing that there was nothing really unusual, Li Zhenmin also softened.
Seeing this, Li Wanying immediately pulled Li Zhenmin up and said, "Let's go, let's go to visit and eat some local snacks. Remember to give me a smile later~~"
