Zhao Chen didn't quite see whether Chen Guangren was testing him, or simply asking for a salary. After thinking about it, he gave an answer that could boost his favorability——

"It's the best thing for me if Chen Jiu's illness can be cured. I don't need anything."

Sure enough, Chen Guangren looked at him with a much kinder look, and sighed: "You will think about brother Jiu, but how can you not ask for money for medical treatment? You can go back and ask your master what you need."

"Master, an old man, is a kind-hearted doctor. He rarely asks for money for medical treatment. He always asks the patient's family members to send some things like rice noodles and eggs." One or two sentences are enough to establish an affectionate persona, and it will be greasy if there are too many , Zhao Chen just said enough, and said gently, "If Uncle Chen insists on giving it, then just prepare these."

"Also, the master usually accepts things after he is cured of the disease. If he is not cured, he will not accept things."

After hearing this, Chen Guangren also had a good impression of Zhao Chen's "master", and said, "Your master is also a good person. It's a great thing that you can learn medicine from him."

Chen Jiu in the space raised the corners of his lips slightly after hearing this, so he is not a very nice person.

Zhao Chen accepted Chen Guangren's praise without blushing, nodded and smiled, "Don't worry, Uncle Chen, this junior must study hard and not let Uncle Chen down."

Chen Guangren said in his heart that I have nothing to be disappointed, and you are not someone from my family.

However, Zhao Chen's humble and respectful attitude towards his elders made him very satisfied. Compared with Qian Yun who always showed a superior appearance in front of him, talking to Zhao Chen was much more comfortable.

Thinking of this, the idea that just popped up in my heart became more and more active.

But after all, Chen Jiu and Qian Yun hadn't formally broken off their engagement. Chen Guangren was afraid that Zhao Chen would feel that Chen Jiu was in two boats or that the Chen family was not kind, so he didn't give any hints.

Nodding his head, he changed the subject and said, "When will your master come?"

"This one……"

Zhao Chen pretended to be embarrassed, and told about his "master" who lived in the deep mountains for a long time and was unwilling to go out of the mountains easily, and then told the way to treat Hu Jinqiu, saying: "If Uncle Chen doesn't mind, tomorrow The younger generation will go to the Chen family to have a look?"

"This..." Chen Guangren hesitated, there were still rumors about brother Jiu and Zhao Chen in the village, if Zhao Chen came here by himself, then others would gossip again.

After a while, he said, "The house is a little noisy right now, please come back in a few days."

When it was over, I felt that this was too impolite, so I hurriedly added, "Is it okay?"

Zhao Chen also heard Chen Jiu say that he was about to retire, and he understood it, but he didn't show it on his face, and said with a smile: "Of course it's possible, Uncle Chen can come here whenever it's convenient for you, just call the junior. Juniors will never push back and block four."

Chen Guangren naturally knew that he would not be pushy, otherwise he would not have brought it up, so he said, "Then thank you very much."

"Uncle Chen, you're welcome." Zhao Chen smiled, seeing Chen Guangren standing all the time, he said, "Why don't Uncle Chen come in and sit down?"

"No, no, no." Chen Guangren waved his hand quickly, "It's getting dark, I have to go back quickly, this meat..."

"You take this meat back."

Zhao Chen cut off his words, "There are really many here, if you don't believe me, take a look."

After speaking, he turned around and took the basket placed on the stove, immediately took out all the meat stored in the space and put it in the basket, and handed it to Chen Guangren to see.

Chen Guangren looked inside subconsciously, and saw that there was half a basket full of meat inside. He was shocked, and said that Zhao Chen sold the herbs for money. How much money must this have been exchanged for?

But this is Zhao Chen's business, so he didn't want to ask, so he just said: "The weather is still cool now, and the meat won't stink if it is left for a day or two. The taste will also change, so you have to pickle it with salt quickly, or you won’t be able to eat it in two days.”

Speaking of this, Chen Guangren felt that Zhao Chen was an idiot a few days ago, otherwise why didn't he even know how to marinate meat?

"Have you bought salt? Can you salt it?" Chen Guangren asked kindly.

Zhao Chen: "..."

Zhao Chen resisted his foolish gaze, and said calmly, "I bought the salt, but I don't know how to marinate the meat. Uncle Chen, teach me?"

Chen Guangren wanted to teach him, so he nodded readily.

Zhao Chen thanked him, took out the salt and the wooden basin for washing vegetables he bought earlier, and asked him to demonstrate.

The sky was getting darker and darker, Chen Guangren didn't delay, he quickly marinated a piece of meat, and asked Zhao Chen to marinate another piece, seeing that he had learned it, he planned to leave.

"Uncle Chen, teach me how to marinate meat, so you can take this piece of meat back."

Zhao Chen gave Chen Guangren the piece of meat again, "You also saw the meat here, I don't know how long it would take to eat it alone, so please help me eat some!"

Chen Guangren didn't want to take it, but how could he speak against Zhao Chen?

Soon, he was fooled by Zhao Chen to take the meat before leaving.

On the way back, he picked up the meat and looked at it, thinking that Zhao Chen could really say it, and it was really good.

That night, Chen Guangren brought Chen Jiu's dinner.

White rice with vegetables and fried meat, the meat is the one given by Zhao Chen.

Because Zhao Chen said he wanted to add food to Chen Jiu, and because he was dissatisfied with Chen Ling and Qian Yun's affair, Chen Guangren was not partial, so he gave half of the fried meat to Chen Jiu, and poured a lot into Chen Fu's bowl, The rest are divided equally between the three.

Chen Gui was ordered to live in Mr. Lin's home these days, but he didn't feel the difference. Lan and Chen Ling turned pale, but in order to get Chen Ling and Qian Yun engaged, they didn't dare to annoy them any more. Chen Guangren had no choice but to swallow this breath secretly, and made up his mind to make Chen Jiu look good after it was done.

I ran back and forth between Chen's house and the thatched cottage twice, and it was dark when I was eating.

Chen Guangren lit the candles in Chen Jiu's room, then handed the rice bowl piled with meat to Chen Jiu, and said with a smile, "Brother Jiu, it's time to eat."

"Well, thank you dad." Chen Jiu took the job, knowing how the meat came from, but still asked, "Did Fu'er go to the county to deliver firewood today?"

The Chen family has always been responsible for delivering firewood to shops and wealthy families in the county, usually once every three days. In the past, it was delivered by his father. Last year, Chen Fu turned ten years old. Help, now that the farming season is busy, my father has to be busy farming, so Chen Fu and Li Wu, an orphan who always stays with Chen Fu and grows up eating a lot of food, will deliver the firewood.

In order to make the family eat something good, my father or Chen Fu would buy two or three taels of meat two or three times a month.

If it is a festival, or a big family organizes a happy event, some will also have rewards.

A few days ago, there was a rich family with a full moon child. Chen Fu and Li Wu went to deliver firewood. Chen Fu didn’t like to talk, but Li Wu had to run around begging for food since he was a child. He became able to speak well, and said good things without money, and made the hosts happy, so he rewarded them with a big bowl of preserved vegetables and pork and ten buns.

Li Wu had a good relationship with Chen Fu since he was a child. Most of his meals were at Chen's house, and he loved to give Chen Fu any good things. Those rewards were given to him, and he handed them over to Chen Fu as soon as he went out.

The author has something to say

I'm busy during the day, so, well, that's more of a point.

Then, Li Wu and Chen Fu are the first pair of deputy CPs that appear in this article. There may not be much ink, and most of them appear with our protagonist (tentatively). Will explain soon, haha~~~
