Chapter 24: Turning Point
Bian Rui smiled bitterly and shook his head: "This business can't be done!"
Bian Rui has now roughly guessed who asked this woman to come, this woman is dressed well, but it has not yet reached the point where she can accept the price of Bian's small restaurant.
It's not that Bian Rui looks down on people, but this woman's dress and temperament, at most, she is a senior white-collar worker, with an income of tens of thousands of yuan a month, and she takes out more than 10,000 yuan to eat a meal.
Hu Shuo was not stupid, he thought for a while and said, "Is that one?"
Bian Rui nodded: "As long as it's not you, there is a chance that it will be nine times out of ten."
"Am I so bored!"
"So the answer to this matter is obvious," Bian Rui said with a wry smile: "Why do everyone think that I won't be able to get along?"
"Look at what you said, I don't think you can't get along, I just think that you have drilled the horns of the bull, there are more good girls in the world, find another one, find another young and beautiful, and walk with a small waist that twists like a willow in the wind...... Angry Wang Jie," Hu Shuo said.
Bian Rui hurriedly stopped Hu Shuo from talking nonsense: "What nonsense, the child is here."
Who knew that the little girl answered at this time: "Dad, I support you to find another wife, our family is about to have a little brother, how unfair it is for you to be alone."
As soon as these words came out, not only Bian Rui, but even Hu Shuo was a little dumbfounded.
"Little girl, your mother is going to give birth to a little brother?" Hu Shuo asked softly.
The little girl fiddled with the two ears of the tiger in her arms: "Well, they went to the hospital a few days ago, and when they came back, Uncle Zhao was happy for several days, and he was happy to see everyone, and he bought me a lot of food and fun."
After listening to the little girl, Hu Shuo looked at Bian Rui and said, "You have to live a life to let people see, what is this special thing."
"Live for others, how tiring it is to live" Bian Rui smiled.
Bian Rui didn't expect Wang Jie to get pregnant so soon, but thinking that this matter has a dime to do with him now, he doesn't think about it.
"Hey, you're going to become an immortal now, I won't say much about this layman, it's almost time, I'll pick up the one in our house, and I'll pick up something tomorrow morning!" Hu Shuo looked at his watch and said.
Bian Rui nodded, sent Hu Shuo to the door, came back to play with his daughter for a while, and the father and daughter watched the cartoon for a while, and then washed and went to sleep.
Waiting for the girl to sleep, Bian Rui took a small wooden shovel into the space and carefully lifted out the Shou Wushuang in the ground, the stem is not big, it is as thick as a thumb, but the roots are very developed, almost seventy centimeters, and it spreads out like a big fan.
Bian Rui didn't plan to give it all away, in case he wanted to use it at home in the future, so he divided about one-third with a porcelain knife, with three or four strands of side whiskers, and then carefully put it in a wooden box, and put it on the pad with a small half piece of rice paper.
Early the next morning, Bian Rui waited for Hu Shuo to come over and told him again and again, and then handed over the things to Hu Shuo, and he sent his daughter to the teacher's house to learn violin.
The girl learns the violin, and Bian Rui is downstairs to play chess with the old man to pass the time.
Hu Shuo took the things and called Zhou Zheng, Zhou Zheng heard that the things sent by Bian Rui were originally unwanted, and now he is not in the mood to think about anything else, the pillars of the family are about to fall, how can he be in the mood to take care of other things now, hearing that Hu Shuo is going to send it over, and it is Bian Rui's meaning, he is not good to refuse directly, so he reported an address for Hu Shuo to send over, and then he found someone to pick it up.
Hu Shuo delivered it to the location, and it was a driver who picked up the things, and after receiving the things, he turned around and got into the car without saying much.
The driver returned to a mansion on the outskirts of the city like a manor, stopped the car and found Zhou Zheng, who was frowning, handed the zygote into Zhou Zheng's hands, and repeated the words from Hu Shuo.
Zhou Zheng nodded when he heard this, and said casually: "I know!"
Waiting for the driver to turn around, Zhou Zheng opened the box with a little curiosity and found that the box was an old ginseng, which was inconspicuous, as if it had been burned by fire, the whole body was jet black, and it was incomplete.
There are really too many good ginseng that Old Man Zhou has used these days, and it is not uncommon for thousands of years, not to mention this black and inconspicuous thing, the main reason is that this thing is only so little.
Zhou Zheng took a look at the box, then shook his head with a wry smile, and said in his heart: Rui here is really interesting!
He was a little dissatisfied with Bian Rui, thinking that if you want to send at least you have to send a whole root, it is better not to send this half-pull thing, why do you think that our Zhou family can't afford to participate?
Without thinking about it, Zhou Zheng threw the things aside and put them on a small table.
The old man of the Zhou family has gone from the hospital to the home, this meaning is obvious, the old man is only a matter of these two days, the old man's problem now is to treat his disease to have surgery, but the old man's body can not be operated, and he can hardly get off the operating table.
To put it bluntly, Mr. Zhou's age is too old, and he has reached the point where he has run out of oil and dried up, and the best doctor does not dare to risk operating on the old man at this time, because going to the operating table is almost equivalent to hanging up, and it is better to go home and hold on for two more days.
The Zhou family is now a family here, six or seven rooms of all sizes, more than 50 men, women and children, although there are many people, they are extremely quiet, and they don't know what they have in their hearts.
In addition to the Zhou family, there are also invited doctors, and now the old man is hanging his life, it is a few old Chinese medicine doctors invited by the Zhou family from Malaysia, and the level of several old Chinese medicine doctors is quite high, it is precisely because of these few people that the life of the old man Zhou can be hung until now.
Zhou Zheng stood without speaking, looking at the door of the room from time to time, for fear that a group of people would suddenly come out and announce that the old man was no good.
Zhou Zheng is not like other people, looking forward to the old man's death as soon as possible, so that he can close the door of the family property and live his own small life, he knows that without the old man, the good days of the Zhou family will come to an end.
Turning his head to look at the people around him, he saw that everyone was sad, and secretly said in his heart: Some people are probably happy in their hearts!
Zhou Zheng observed everyone here, felt the various states of life, and felt that his family seemed to be a joke now, and he could make a prime-time TV series, everyone had different thoughts, they were obviously idiots, but they felt that they were wise and martial, and they could make great achievements when the old man kicked his legs.
From the morning everyone waited in the hall, until the sun went down, no one left, no one cried, some people were really sad for the fate of the family, but most people were afraid that if they left, the old man would come back to the light, and the share of the family property they deserved would be less.
Syllable!
Suddenly, something fell to the ground.
In such a quiet environment, this sound suddenly made everyone's eyes turn away.
A small wooden box fell on it, and a boy of about four or five years old was now looking at the people around him with a frightened expression, and it seemed that it was this mischievous child who had dropped the wooden box.
A young woman next to her sneered, bent down to pick up the box, and said to her son, "Don't move!"
The next glance, the woman saw the small half of the black ginseng that had fallen on the ground, and seemed to feel dirty, so she wrapped the stem with the rice paper on the ground in her hand and lifted the ginseng.
After looking at it twice, in order to resolve the embarrassment of the scene, he said with a smile: "Yo, whose ginseng is this, it's so big, is this a fire?"
Some people looked at the small ginseng, and the skinny ginseng, and wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh.
At this time, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy opened his mouth and said, "It was brought by the eldest brother of the second uncle's family, and I see that he put it there! I guess he asked for it for his grandfather."
Zhou Zheng can't wait to trample his cousin to death now, don't look at the age of the person, but the twists and turns in his heart are not a lot at all, don't look at the fact that he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and the woman who has soaked is afraid that he can form a reinforced platoon.
knew that his cousin was scolding himself, but Zhou Zheng couldn't say anything now, because his cousin was telling the truth, and he brought in the broken ginseng, and it was also given by his friend.
"Tsk, tsk, this ginseng can be eaten, I guess it's roasted?......" the woman continued.
An old Chinese medicine doctor who was writing prescriptions raised his head at this time, and now the old man has seen too many such situations, especially this kind of mansion door, the things at home are messy like a chicken coop, and the smell is like a pigsty, and he has long lost interest.
But it was this look up that made him see the ginseng in the woman's hand.
"Hold it and don't move!" said the old Chinese medicine doctor.
This sound suddenly made the audience quiet again.
Walking to the woman's side, the old Chinese medicine doctor took the ginseng, looked at it carefully, and frowned from time to time, as if he was a little uncertain.
At this time, the other two Chinese medicine practitioners in the field surrounded and looked at the black ginseng in the old man's hand.
"What is this?" asked one of the old men.
"Take a knife, don't use iron, you don't have a porcelain knife at home, you really don't have a porcelain knife or a wooden knife," said the old Chinese medicine doctor.
Naturally, there were knives in the house, and soon someone brought an imported porcelain knife and handed it to the old Chinese medicine doctor.
The old Chinese medicine doctor gently scraped the ginseng root with the blade of the knife, and saw that the underside of the dark epidermis was as red as blood, but after touching the air, the original blood red quickly turned black again.
"Tsuruhashi?!"
An old Chinese medicine doctor asked in a lost voice.
"Well, Heqiao, I didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to see this kind of heaven and earth treasure in my life!" said the old Chinese medicine doctor as he looked at the ginseng in his hand with love.
