Chapter 187 I am 32 years old this year!
Madam Cao held the crying child in her arms, not caring about anything else and just trying to comfort the child to stop crying.
Chen Guangji came to give cloth to Shen Ruyi and the couple who were in charge. When the scumbag wanted to bully them again, how could he not lend a hand?
Chen Guangji waved his hand, and the manager stopped kicking Song Qiang.
The lady in charge also came over and helped Madam Cao coax the child, smoothed the wheelchair and pushed it, and accompanied Madam Cao to coax the child so that he would not cry.
Song Qiang was wailing on the ground. Chen Guangji glanced at him and ignored him. He turned around and came over with the man in charge.
"Madam Cao, this is not the place to talk. Let's go to Ruyi Clothing Shop to talk."
Madam Cao looked at the shopkeeper Chen with tears in her eyes, nodded gratefully, and took the child in her arms and the woman in charge, pushing the child's wheelchair, and went back to the shop.
Chen Guangji took a look at the door. The only decoration left of Ruyi Clothing Shop was the plaque, which had not been hung up yet. When he entered the house, he saw the decoration here, which was basically the same as the Ruyi Clothing Shop in Beijing. He couldn't help but nodded in admiration.
That little girl is really capable, otherwise she wouldn't be able to make so much money!
"Da Fu, from now on you will be the manager of this cloth shop for the young county lady, and your wife will help with cleaning and cooking in the backyard, and help with housework on weekdays, too. She knows a thing or two.
The young county lady is a good master. You just do your job well. The young county lady will not let you and your wife suffer any loss.
I will go talk to the young county lady later and see if I can bring both of your sons here.
By the way, your two sons, one is fifteen and the other fourteen, came to help, run errands or something, but you didn’t tell the young county lady, so I couldn’t bring them over right away.
The one called Dafu nodded gratefully: "Manager Chen, if the young county lady agrees, my husband and I will thank you for your kindness!"
Aunt Dafu: "If I don't bring my two sons here now, they will be finished if they are sold as laborers!
Shopkeeper Chen, please explain it to me..."
Chen Guangji nodded and said, "Well! Dafu and his wife, you two are honest people. If the young county lady likes you, I think she will accept your son.
The young county lady’s shop is now doing well, and she plans to set up a farm outside the city in the future. I think the young county lady will definitely be able to adopt your two sons!
Dafu and his wife had work in their eyes, and they started working busily as soon as they entered the shop. Madam Cao held the crying and sobbing child in her arms and walked back and forth in the hall of the shop. Gradually, the child stopped crying.
Chen Guangji thought about it, then went out to the pastry shop diagonally opposite. He bought a pound of all kinds of pastries, and then bought some kinds of candies. Half an hour later, he came back with a lot of bags, and had no idea that Shen Ruyi and Wei Dazhuang had already left!
Seeing what Chen Guangji was carrying, Madam Cao was puzzled: "Mr. Chen, why are you here again? The young lady left!
When the young county lady comes tomorrow, I will tell her... I will ask her to send someone to give you the silver, and also tell her about accepting the two sons of Uncle Dafu."
Chen Guangji smiled and said, "Madam Cao, I saw the child crying. She is still so thin. I heard that the child's lower leg is broken.
How could I, as an elder, not do anything to express my gratitude? I went to the pastry shop and bought eight kilograms of various pastries for the child, and also bought some candies.
I've also made an appointment with the butcher shop across the street to have him send you a slab of pork ribs tomorrow for your child's nutrition. This is three pounds of pork belly and one pound of pork liver. You can make some for your child tonight!"
Mrs. Cao was stunned. She looked at the cakes and candies that Chen Guangji was carrying, and heard that he had ordered a rack of spare ribs and bought meat and pork liver. She was stunned at the time.
"No... not that shopkeeper Chen. I can't let you spend so much money. That... that's not possible. I can't accept it!"
Chen Guangji smiled lovingly at little Shen Xiuer, and pushed the wheelchair forward and said, "Madam Cao, the child's leg is broken and in a splint. If you hold her like this, she will be uncomfortable. You should put her in this wheelchair and I will push her to eat something."
Mrs. Cao nodded somewhat helplessly and put the child down. The child instinctively couldn't take his eyes off the candy.
Madam Cao was a little embarrassed: "Well... that shopkeeper Chen, you brought so many things, how about I give you silver, how much silver you spent on it I will give you."
Chen Guangji smiled gently, and when he smiled he looked even more gentle as jade. Chen Guangji was originally a gentle man, and he gave people an approachable feeling just by looking at them, let alone when he smiled!
He smiled and said, "What's the point of giving me a few pounds of cakes and candies? I like my child and I buy him some food. What's wrong with that?
Madam Cao, I know that you and your child have a miserable life. I have met people in the same situation before, and I will lend a helping hand.
Don't take today's incident to heart. If you find this Song guy again in the future, he will bully you and your mother.
Just ask someone you know to go to Guangji Dental Clinic to look for me. If I'm not here, the long-term workers in my shop will come and help you out!"
Madam Cao was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She didn't know what to say. Her lips trembled and she couldn't say anything...
Chen Guangji looked at this pretty young lady and the tears in her eyes. He didn't know why his heart ached. He really wanted to... hold her in his arms and comfort her!
Chan Kwong Kee!!!
Suddenly he was shocked by his own thoughts. He has not remarried for so many years. To be honest, his first wife has passed away for ten years, and he has never remarried. Now his two children have grown up, and his children also advised him to marry another good woman to accompany him!
Now he suddenly felt pity for this young lady. What was going on? Did he like them both?
Chen Guangji looked at Madam Cao, and suddenly he felt that it would be nice if he married her and took care of both of them. This young lady was much younger than himself, and he wondered if she would dislike him for being too old.
Chen Guangji coughed and said, "Madam Cao, I don't know how old you are this year. You don't look very old."
Madam Cao lowered her head and wiped away her tears, and smoothed the child's hair. She lowered her head and said, "I am twenty-four years old this year, and Xiu'er is six years old.
I am raising a child by myself. The young county lady said that it is not easy for me and asked me to find a suitable family when I find one. But Mr. Chen, you may also know that among those who remarry with children, how many families will treat the burden they bring with them well?
My little Xiu'er is so pitiful, how can I marry again with her?
The little county lady is a living bodhisattva who took me and my daughter in. I decided to make money for the little county lady and raise my Xiuer here."
Chen Guangji nodded: "Yes, the little county lady is a good person. I watched her grow up. Both mother and daughter are good people!"
When Lady Cao mentioned Shen Ruyi, she smiled and said, "Well, the young county lady is really a good person. She gave our Xiu'er the surname Shen. From now on, our Xiu'er will be called Shen Xiu. She is considered the young county lady's servant. The young county lady is a kind person. She didn't treat our Xiu as a servant, but treated her like a little sister. I really have no way to repay her!"
Chen Guangji looked at Madam Cao from a close distance and thought that she was really very beautiful. She had delicate eyebrows and eyes, fair skin, and the look in her eyes was always so gentle and lovely.
Madam Cao looked up at Chen Guangji and could not help but lower her head and ask, "Oh, Mr. Chen, how old are you this year?"
Chen Guangji...
"Ahem, I'm thirty-two this year!"
Madam Cao looked up and said, "Manager Chen, you are really young and promising. You are able to run so many businesses at such a young age. It is really admirable!"
Chen Guangji, who said he looked ten years younger, smiled without blushing and said, "My wife passed away many years ago. Now I am alone and can only run some businesses. There is nothing to be happy about..."
