China is the second most populous country in the world.

As the national capital of China, Beihua City ranks among the top in China in terms of population density and floating population.

Qin Hai queued up in the ticket hall for half an hour before he bought a train ticket to Wuhe Town, Sujiang City, the next day.

The train would depart at seven o'clock the next morning, Qin Hai found a noodle restaurant nearby, and after filling his stomach, he went directly into the waiting hall without looking for a hotel to sleep.

Thinking of Xingchen's family who was about to meet, Qin Hai's heart was full of contradictions.

If it weren't for the unexpected death of the last star, Qin Hai's trip would have been to bring good news to the Yao family, but now

The night passed.

Early in the morning, Qin Hai began to check in with the flow of people.

The speed of the domestic high-speed rail is still not to be said, the distance of nearly 1,000 kilometers, but it takes three hours to arrive.

Because it is a small town and the local atmosphere is very strong, Qin Hai stopped a taxi and tried to ask the Chinese medicine surnamed Yao, but he didn't expect the taxi driver to really know.

According to the driver, the Yao family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine, and the ancestors are very famous in the local area, and few locals do not know, but after the liberation, there are more and more Western medicines, and although the treatment method of traditional Chinese medicine focuses on removing the root of the disease, it gradually declines because of the slow speed of effect.

Qin Hai listened to the driver's words, thinking about Yao Xingchen's amazing ability in medicine, and unconsciously felt a sense of admiration for this family.

"Alright, this is it. ”

The driver stopped the car and pointed out the window, "Because of the decline, few people come to see Chinese medicine again, and the door of Yao's house is not often opened, but there must be someone inside, a big event just happened in Yao's house some time ago, you go to knock on the door, someone should open the door for you." ”

"Big deal?"

When Qin Hai was about to get out of the car, he heard the driver's words, sat back and asked, "What's the big deal?"

The driver hesitated for a moment before whispering: "I'm not a person who likes to chew the root of my tongue, but seeing that you came to the Yao family specifically, you should have something to do with the Yao family, so I'll sue you." The Yao family didn't know how to offend Yu Shouliang, the director of Yuhang Hospital, this Yu Shouliang was not a fuel-efficient lamp, offended him, and the Yao family was afraid that they would not be at peace for a while. ”

When Qin Hai heard this, he frowned, exchanged a few more words with the driver and got out of the car.

The door of Yao's house was closed.

Qin Haihai patted forward, but no one came to open the door for a long time.

He increased the force on his hand, and after a few more moments, the door slowly opened a crack, and a girl's head peeked out of it.

The girl looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, and her appearance was seven points similar to Yao Xingchen.

"Who are you looking for?" the girl spoke in a tone that was not very pleasant, and she stared at Qin Hai warily.

Qin Hai didn't answer and asked, "You are Yao Chen, right?"

He had heard Xingchen mention before that there was a little sister named Yao Chen at home, when she left home, her sister was not yet six years old, and now thirteen years have passed, and her sister's age should be the size of the girl in front of her.

"Are you?" the girl's eyes became more wary.

"I'm your sister's friend. Qin Hai replied directly, "Your sister Xingchen"

"I don't have a sister!"

The girl interrupted Qin Hai's words and said, "If you're talking about Yao Xingchen, then I'm sorry, she's not my sister! Besides, she died thirteen years ago!"

Qin Hai sighed, glanced at the package in his arms, and then said, "Actually, your sister didn't die at that time, she was just"

"What did you say?!"

The girl opened the door in front of her, stared at Qin Hai in front of her, and said in a trembling voice, "You said she didn't die? My sister didn't die? How could it be? My parents obviously told me that my sister was dead, so if she wasn't dead, where is she now? Sister, she is so smart, if my sister is still here, those people will not dare to bully us anymore."

Before Qin Hai's words were finished, he was interrupted by the girl, looking at the girl's expectant gaze at this moment, he didn't know how to say the words that came to his mouth.

"Why don't you speak?"

Yao Chen saw that Qin Hai was silent for a long time, so he hurriedly asked, "Didn't you say that my sister is still alive, where is she now?"

Qin Hai hesitated for a moment before handing the package in his arms to Yao Chen, and said slowly: "Two months ago, she passed away in an accident."

Yao Chen's body was visibly shocked, she stared at the package that Qin Hai handed her, and her hand reached halfway and suddenly pulled back.

"Do you think I'm going to believe you, you liar!" Yao Chen said through gritted teeth.

Qin Hai withdrew his hand, hugged the package back into his arms, and said: "Your name is Yao Chen, your name is your sister, when you were born, your sister was 15 years old, she wanted you to be as bright as the morning light, so she gave you this name."

Yao Chen sneered, "My name, you can find anyone to find out, what can it mean? However, what I want to tell you is that you must do your homework before cheating, my name is Yao Chen now, the dust of the dust! My parents said that I would rather live in the dust for the rest of my life than die as gorgeous as my sister!"

"Your sister, she's always missed you. Qin Hai looked at Yao Chen, who had a heavy knot in front of him, and said calmly.

When Yao Chen heard this, he bit his lower lip, and tears burst out of his eyes.

"Before your sister died, let me come back to find you, she asked me to sue you, she loves you, she has always missed you" Qin Hai continued.

"Sister!" Yao Chen finally couldn't help it and cried out loud.

Qin Hai was not very comforting, he could only watch Yao Chen cry in front of her, and opened his mouth several times, but he didn't say anything.

After Yao Chen cried for a while, he stopped his voice, looked at the package in Qin Hai's hand, and asked, "This is my sister hers."

"Hmm. Qin Hai nodded and handed the package to Yao Chen's hand.

Yao Chen took the package, and after sobbing a few more times, he asked again: "Sister, where has she been doing all these years, and if she is alive, why doesn't she come back to us?"

Qin Hai replied: "This matter is a long story, I will see my uncle and aunt when I go back, and I will tell you in detail about your sister over the years." ”

"Hmm. Yao Chen nodded, and then said, "Come in first, my parents are not at home, and I may not be able to come back later." ”

Qin Hai followed Yao Chen into the gate.

After entering the hall, Yao Chen carefully put the package in his hand on the long table against the wall, and then took out the tea set to make a cup of tea for Qin Hai, put it on the coffee table in front of Qin Hai, and said, "You drink tea first." ”

Qin Hai nodded and said, "My name is Qin Hai, you can call me by my name directly." ”

"Brother Hai. ”

Yao Chen is not a squirming girl, after she screamed directly, she asked, "Brother Hai, when did you meet my sister?"

"I've known your sister for ten years. Qin Hai thought of the past, and he didn't feel a sense of trance.

"Poof. Yao Chen couldn't hold back her laughter, she pursed her lips and questioned, "You were only ten years old when you met my sister?"

"Fourteen years old. Qin Hai replied seriously.

Seeing this, Yao Chen put away the smile on his face.

"When you met her, where was she and what was she doing?" Yao Chen asked.

Qin Hai hesitated for a moment before replying, "Your sister, she is very special, if it weren't for meeting her, I wouldn't be qualified to sit here now." ”

When Yao Chen heard this, he was silent for a while before asking, "Sister, how are she doing all these years?"

"She's always wanted to come back," Qin Hai replied again.

"Then why didn't she come back?"

Yao Chen began to get a little excited again, she was still just a little girl after all, she couldn't hold her breath, "It's been thirteen years, if she wants to come back to see, even if she is on the other side of the world, she should be able to come back, right?!"

"She can't!" Qin Hai said in a deep voice.

After only saying these three words, Qin Hai stopped speaking.

"Why not?" asked Yao Chen. It's just that no matter how unrelenting she is, Qin Hai is silent to the end.

After being silent for a long time, Qin Hai asked Yao Chen about what had happened at home recently, and he was still thinking about what the taxi driver had just said.

Yao Chen was a little hesitant at first, and finally told him all about what happened.

It turned out that, as the taxi driver said before, the Yao family was a family of traditional Chinese medicine, and before the decline, the Yao family had a high prestige in the town.

However, after the liberation, Western medicine began to become popular, and Western medicine treatment was obviously more effective than traditional Chinese medicine treatment, and clinics began to appear in Wuhe Town, so that people in the town had more medical treatment options.

By the time of Grandpa Yao Chen's generation, the Yao family had already declined very obviously, but the older generation still preferred to believe in traditional Chinese medicine, thinking that Western medicine only cures the root cause of traditional Chinese medicine, so the brand of Yao's traditional Chinese medicine has not fallen.

In the 21st century, Yao Chen's grandfather's generation gradually became ancient, and traditional Chinese medicine was facing an unprecedented grim shape in China.

It was also during this period that a large-scale regular western hospital appeared in Wuhe Town for the first time: Yuhang Hospital. Yao's TCM began to be crowded out in the market from all sides.

However, after all, Yao's TCM is a local veteran Chinese medicine family in Wuhe Town, and even if it is suppressed by Yuhang Hospital, it is still favored by some people with its good reputation.

In this way, Yao's Traditional Chinese Medicine and Yuhang Hospital have coexisted in Wuhe Town for more than ten years.

But not long ago, a patient came to Yao's traditional Chinese medicine to see a doctor, and was diagnosed with lung fever by Yao Chen's father, Yao Zhiyuan, and prescribed a few pairs of herbs and said that he went back to decoction and drink, and the medicine could be cured in three days, but in less than three days, the person became crippled for no reason, below his legs, and unconscious.

What's even more coincidental is that person is Yu Qiangfei, the son of Yu Shouliang, the president of Yuhang Hospital!

Because he has never lived in Wuhe Town, Yao Zhiyuan didn't know him at all before.

Yu Shouliang is such a son who lives abroad, and he rarely returns to China, who knew that this time he just came back, and he encountered this kind of thing.

He immediately sued Yao Zhiyuan to the police station, but because of insufficient evidence, Yao Zhiyuan was not immediately detained.

Yu Shouliang was unwilling, and found someone to smash the plaque that had been hanging on the gate of Yao's house for a hundred years.
