On the bank of the Lanchen River, Shaoling Mountain Sanatorium.

Since Xia Lao's physical problems, he has basically lived in a sanatorium to recuperate his body and mind.

This sanatorium is one of the famous sanatoriums in Nam Giang province, and basically only accepts cadres at the division level or department level.

At this time, in a quiet courtyard, Xia Lao was playing with a topaz snuff bottle.

And beside him, there were two people.

One of them stood aside with his hands down, with a Chinese face and a tall figure, named Xia Donghe, who was the eldest son of Xia Lao and Xia Zimo's father.

Xia Lao has a total of three sons, Xia Donghe is currently the most outstanding, but at the age of 46, he is already the chairman of the Nanjiang Provincial Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, and is expected to climb to the top of the provincial department before the age of 55.

Xia Lao's other two sons were all in the army, and they were both in the army at this time, and they were also cadres and generals with great potential.

In order to avoid turmoil in the Xia family, Xia Lao's physical condition was not informed to anyone, and only Xia Donghe was told.

The other is also an old man, full of white hair, easy-going appearance, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, holding a book at this time, and the breath of an old scholar in his bones.

The old man's surname is Fang, he is a famous scholar and educator, and the few books he published can be said to be the spiritual food of a generation.

After getting older, Elder Fang also entered this sanatorium.

Originally, he and Xia Lao had nothing to do with each other, but in the end, the two unexpectedly became friends.

Xia Lao smiled and said: "Old Fang, what do you think of my topaz snuff bottle? This is what I bought with Zimo from the antique market a few days ago, and there is the seal of Kangxi Ye at the bottom of the pot, which is of extraordinary value at a glance!"

Fang Lao also studied antiques and antiques when he was old, and he was very professional. When Xia Lao got a good thing, he couldn't help but show it off in front of Fang Lao.

Hearing this, Old Fang raised his head, just glanced at it and lowered his head, and said mercilessly: "Fake, even people with your vision can be deceived." ”

"Is it fake?"

Xia Lao was a little embarrassed when he heard this, but he quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile:

"But the quality is very good, and the most valuable thing is Zimo's filial piety. You old man is just funny, very rigid, no wonder your children don't want to come to see you. ”

In the face of this friend of the same age, Xia Lao was like a child, and he had to fight for verbal pleasure.

Elder Fang was not annoyed when he heard this, but glanced at Elder Xia strangely: "You old guy is in a good mood today." ”

Xia Lao laughed and said: "Of course it's good, my body will be fine soon, and I won't be in this sanatorium soon, so you can be bored here alone." ”

Elder Fang snorted when he heard this, and although he was curious, he didn't pay attention to him anymore.

Xia Donghe's brows furrowed when he heard this, and he said with some concern: "Dad, is the person you said really sure? Don't be a liar, heal your old body again." ”

Xia Lao said nonchalantly: "What is my body, can it be cured?"

After speaking, he turned his head and looked at Xia Donghe with a serious face: "Zimo went to pick up Mr. Xiao Su, they have been walking for a while, they should be there soon." Donghe, let me tell you, you must be polite when you see Mr. Xiao Su, don't look down on him because he is young. ”

Xia Donghe nodded hurriedly after listening to his father's instructions, but he secretly decided in his heart that he must take a good look at the doctor for a while, and he must not let the other party treat the disease indiscriminately.

......

At about nine o'clock in the morning, Xia Zimo followed Su Lin to the Shaoling Mountain Sanatorium.

Today, Xia Zimo is wearing a snow-white shirt, a pencil pants on his lower body, and a pair of high-end board shoes on his feet, which makes his legs thin and long, which is very moving.

Su Lin smiled: "Why has today's dressing style changed again?"

Since losing to Su Lin last time, Xia Zimo no longer wears neutral clothes, and her style is becoming more and more like a girl.

Xia Zimo's face turned red when he heard this, and he looked at Su Lin with some shame: "I can wear it how I like, and I don't wear it for you to see, I want you to take care of it!"

Su Lin smiled and shook his head.

Then the two walked along the quiet path, all the way to a courtyard group similar to a villa area, although these buildings are newly built, but the style is antique, living here has a unique flavor.

Su Lin nodded and said with a smile: "This place is rich in spiritual energy, the scenery is beautiful, and living here is indeed beneficial to the body and mind." ”

At this time, the [Chenyin Stone Jade] on his body was like eating a stimulant, frantically absorbing the aura, making him feel comfortable.

The two soon arrived at the small courtyard where Xia Lao was.

As soon as Su Lin entered the door, Xia Lao greeted warmly: "Mr. Xiao Su is here, please come in and see how I write this handwriting!"

Hearing this, Xia Donghe and Fang Lao also looked at Su Lin, but one looked at him with scrutiny, and the other with curiosity.

Su Lin was stunned when he heard this, and walked forward slowly.

I saw a stone table standing in the small courtyard, and there was a pair of brush characters on the table that had not yet dried, and Xia Lao was standing aside with a pen forked on his waist, looking a little proud.

Su Lin glanced at Xia Lao's "masterpiece" and couldn't help laughing.

"You are so proud of this word, who gave you the courage?"

Xia Donghe frowned when he heard this, he had never seen anyone so disrespectful to his father, even the most important ones in the whole country, he was very respectful when he saw his father, this kid dared to be so speechless!

Old Xia laughed when he heard this: "Ouch, I didn't even bluff you, I didn't expect Mr. Xiao Su to know calligraphy?"

Elder Fang couldn't help but smile a little when he heard this.

He had long been tired of Old Man Xia's sloppy but triumphant face, and today there was finally someone who was not so flattering, which made him have a good impression of Su Lin.

Su Lin also smiled at Xia Lao's childlike heart: "I just understand a little." ”

Xia Donghe saw that Su Lin was younger than his daughter, so he behaved like this, and he didn't have any condescension to his father at all, and he looked at him more and more unpleasantly.

At the same time, Xia Donghe became more and more suspicious in his heart about whether Su Lin could save his father.

Su Lin did not forget the main purpose of today, and took out a plain brocade box from his arms.

"Here are the five pills I have refined, called [Five Organs Harmony Pill], which can condition your body, Old Xia. ”

Xia Lao's eyes lit up when he heard this, the thing he had been waiting for finally arrived, and he couldn't wait to take the brocade box.

Seeing this, Elder Fang and Xia Donghe were also a little curious, and stepped forward to watch.

After opening the brocade box, he saw five pills neatly placed in the brocade box, and Xia Lao asked curiously, "Do you have to take these five pills?"

Su Lin shook his head: "One is enough." ”

Xia Lao was puzzled: "Then why are there five here?"

Su Lin glanced at Xia Zimo with a smile, saw that her face was flushed, and said with a smile: "Naturally, some people are afraid that the pills will not be enough for you to eat, so they specially brought a large number of medicinal materials for me to refine." ”

As soon as Xia Lao saw Xia Zimo's expression, he guessed what was going on, he smiled on his face, and looked at his granddaughter with a little doting.

"Zimo, go and help grandpa get some water. ”

Xia Zimo answered, and took hot water from the house.

Xia Lao looked at the [Five Organs Harmony Pill] in his hand, and thought that his body that had been tortured by illness was about to heal, and his expression was a little excited.

After he saw Su Lin's extraordinaryness last time, he had already determined that Su Lin was a disciple of the Ancient Immortal Sect who had traveled in the world, and he had no doubts about Su Lin's elixir, and he had to take out a pill and eat it.

At this time, Xia Donghe suddenly said: "Father, this medicine has not passed the safety inspection, I don't know what its effect is, why don't you send it to the safety supervision department to analyze the ingredients first?"

Su Lin's smile faded a little when he heard this.
