Chapter 172 Jia’s misunderstanding

Zhang Zhengdao's eyes brightened even more, and he guessed in his mind that this Miss Jia was Lu's future wife Jia.

The shop clerk came closer and whispered: "The Jia family has countless matchmakers who come to visit every day, but they are all rejected."

Zhang Zhengdao took out a dozen more copper coins, stuffed them into him, and asked, "What else do you know? Tell me."

The shopkeeper got the money and said with a smile: "Now only the orphans and widows are left to live in the Jia family. Grandpa Jia has been dead for more than two years, and the family is not as wealthy as before. Even the number of visits to Cuiyun Tower has become less."
"In the past, Mrs. Jia would always come to Cuiyun Tower four or five times a month. Now, it is rare to come only once a month." The store clerk knew everything and said it all.

Zhang Zhengdao knew it well and wanted to ask a few more questions, but the shop assistant was called over by a customer at the table next to him.

Sitting there, Zhang Zhengdao secretly wondered how to hook up with Jia before she married Lu Junyi, or how to strike up a conversation?

Too much is not beautiful!

In order to save the "big fool" Lu Junyi who would be cuckolded in the future, the official sat on the chair and racked his brains!

While he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a commotion upstairs. Zhang Zhengdao looked up and saw Miss Jia standing in the corridor with a look of panic, talking to the waiter.

Something happened, the opportunity came. Zhang Zhengdao was overjoyed, got up and hurried upstairs.

Pushing aside a few people who were watching, Zhang Zhengdao squeezed next to Jia and asked, "What happened?"

Then Jia suddenly saw a handsome young man approaching her. If it had been normal, she would have been tired of avoiding such a prostitute.

However, he was already anxious at this time and could not care about so many things. He stood still and quickly said to the shop assistant: "Go and ask for the doctor!"

Seeing the seriousness of the situation, the clerk at Cuiyun Tower didn't want Mrs. Jia to die in his shop, so he hurried downstairs and trotted to invite the doctor.

Zhang Zhengdao approached the door of the cubicle and saw that the old lady was cyanotic and seemed to have difficulty breathing. She was slumped in a chair, breathing heavily.

Zhang Zhengdao asked Jia again: "What happened?"

Jia was panicked and choked back: "My mother's throat is stuck by the date kernel!"

The date core is stuck, it’s easy!

Zhang Zhengdao walked in quickly and without any time to think, he picked up the plump old lady from the chair and held her in his arms.

Then he inserted one of his legs between her legs in a lunge position, and stretched the other leg straight back.

Zhang Zhengdao put his arms around her waist, pushed his chest forward, and made her lean forward.

With the right hand, he clenched his fist and put the fist eye above the two horizontal fingers of the old lady's belly button. With his left hand, he wrapped his right fist and pressed backward and upward continuously, quickly and hard!

Jia was shocked when she saw this. She screamed angrily, rushed into the cubicle, and kept hitting Zhang Zhengdao's back with her fists. While hitting her, she yelled: "You beast, let me go!"

Mother."

No wonder Mrs. Jia misunderstood, Zhang Zhengdao was holding Mrs. Jia in a rather indecent manner.

Zhang Zhengdao didn't care much, he just hugged the soft and plump body and exerted force quickly.

After a few breaths, the old lady suddenly coughed, and then spit out a date core.

Zhang Zhengdao was overjoyed and shouted: "Okay, okay, spit it out."

Jia's little fist that she was swinging stopped, and her face was filled with disbelief.

Zhang Zhengdao let go of the old lady, patted her back a few more times, helped her calm down, and then helped her sit down.

The date core was gone and her breathing was smooth. The old lady breathed a long sigh of relief, coughed twice more, and then whispered: "Daughter, mother is fine!"

Jia rushed to the old lady and shouted in surprise: "Mom, are you really well?"

The old lady took several breaths of fresh air, opened her eyes, and said with a smile: "I have already spit it out."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled at the side and said: "It's okay, luckily I didn't hurt my throat."

He just took a closer look at the smooth date stones on the ground, and there was no blood on them.

Mrs. Jia felt a little embarrassed at the moment and wanted to express her gratitude, but this handsome young man held her mother in his arms. If word spread, his reputation would be damaged.

If you don’t say thank you, but you can’t explain it, it is a life-saving grace after all.

With a shy look on her face, Mrs. Jia bent down to sing and whispered: "Little girl, thank you, Master, for saving my mother."

"I just misunderstood you, please forgive me!" Jia's face was flushed, remembering that she had just hit him on the back with her fist, but it was extremely hard. On the contrary, her own hand was still a little painful.

Zhang Zhengdao gave him a weak hand and said with a smile: "It's a small effort, but it's not worth mentioning."

Just at this moment, the shop assistant who went to ask for the doctor was so anxious that he ran upstairs with a doctor carrying a medicine box and rushed into the cubicle.

"Doctor Li is here!" the store clerk shouted.

Doctor Li then entered the cubicle and asked quickly: "Don't be impatient. Wait for me to take a look."

After saying that, he stepped forward, wanting to open the old lady's mouth and check it out.

Zhang Zhengdao stretched out his hand to stop him and said: "Sir, the old lady is already well, so there is no need to trouble her."

Doctor Li asked in surprise: "Did you swallow it?"

"Spit it out!" Zhang Zhengdao pointed to the date core on the ground.

Dr. Li was surprised. It was rare for someone to spit out something stuck in their throat. In the past, when he encountered such patients, he always tried to get the thing into the patient's stomach.

Doctor Li bent down, stretched out his hand to pick up the date core, frowned and said, "May I ask, madam, how you spit out this huge date core?"

Mrs. Jia's face turned red when she recalled the situation just now. At such an age, she was hugged by a young man not much older than her daughter, and she made such indescribable actions.

No wonder I’m embarrassed!

Zhang Zhengdao wanted to explain it to the doctor and spread the rescue method, but he just opened his mouth and said, "I'll show it to Dr. Li, and you'll understand."

"No!"

"Can't say!"

Two voices stopped him at the same time, one was the old lady and the other was Mr. Jia.

The two women spoke at the same time, and then shut up at the same time.

Zhang Zhengdao frowned, looking at the beautiful mother and daughter, with shame on their faces, and then suddenly realized.

Therefore, Zhang Zhengdao had no choice but to clenched his right fist, put it on his abdomen, wrapped his fist with his left hand, and pressed hard on his own repeatedly.

While demonstrating, Zhang Zhengdao said: "If the patient can move on his own, use this method and press hard repeatedly, and he will be able to spit out the things stuck in his throat in a while."

Seeing Dr. Li thoughtful, Zhang Zhengdao came to an empty chair again, bent down, leaned his abdomen against the edge of the chair back, pressed his upper abdomen, and thrust upward quickly.

After demonstrating this several times, Zhang Zhengdao stopped and said with a smile: "Both methods are effective."

"What if the patient cannot move?" Dr. Li asked.

The old lady and Mr. Jia also looked at Zhang Zhengdao at the same time, wondering what he was going to say.

Zhang Zhengdao pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "Help the patient up and pat his back repeatedly."

When the two girls heard his words, they both breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at each other, both of them feeling shy.
