Chapter78

Early the next morning, Ye Zhu and Chi Lian had just had a good breakfast, and someone came to pick them up. After confirming that the identity of the person who came over was indeed sent by the old man, Chi Lian said hello to Mu Yu and asked her to pay close attention to the situation here, and call him whenever there was any movement. Then, he followed Ye Zhu to the old man in the car.

Mu Yu looked at the car in the distance, sadness, envy, and regret flashed in her heart, but in the end they all turned into a sigh...... With her identity, she must not be able to marry into the Chi family, even if Chi Lian has affection for her, if the gap between the two parties' family backgrounds is too big, no matter what the relationship is, there will gradually be cracks. In this way, it is better to wish him and Ye Zhu a hundred years of good together.

These days of observation, Mu Yu also let go of those prejudices about Ye Zhu, from the perspective of a woman, Ye Zhu is undoubtedly excellent, with a prominent family background, excellent appearance, gentle personality, and outstanding ability. These advantages are also a good candidate for her wife in her eyes. The most important thing is that Chi Lian has affection for her, which can cover up all her shortcomings, and those advantages are not so important.

And she couldn't have anything to do with Chi Lian in the first place, so if she broke off this thought early, it was more likely to find the person who really loved her.

……

Ye Zhu and Chi Lian took the car sent by the old man and passed through a lot of streets along the way, but Ye Zhu found that these roads were becoming more and more familiar, so she asked, "Little brother, this is going to Chinatown, right?" ”

The driver smiled at Ye Zhu in the rearview mirror, and then said: "Miss Ye, the old man is going to have a banquet there, I think Miss Ye, you are also very familiar with Chinatown, otherwise you wouldn't have judged it just by this feeling." ”

Ye Zhu smiled and said, "I came here a few times when I was a child, so I'm quite familiar with this place. The old man specially took us to Chinatown, did he want to invite us to Chinese food? ”

The driver listened to Ye Zhu's words, and said enviously: "It's rare for the old man to invite someone to dine at home, Miss Ye and Mr. Chi are really amazing, if it were an ordinary person, the old man would not be so affectionate at all." ”

Ye Zhu asked in surprise: "The old man's home is in Chinatown?" ”

The driver replied, "My lord has a villa near Chinatown, which is close to Dr. Dou's medical center, so it is easy to take care of it." ”

Ye Zhu suddenly realized, did not ask again, but turned his head to look at the speeding scenery outside the window.

Chinatown is soon here, Chinatown is also known as Chinatown or Chinatown, the most famous Chinatown in the country is the Chinatown of New York and San Francisco, but the capital of country M also has a Chinatown, located at the junction of 7th Street and H Street in downtown Washington, D.C., there are also many Chinese people living here and taking care of each other.

Ye Zhu saw that the driver did not turn into the street, but drove into another street, and knew that this was the place. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Ye Zhu to see a very atmospheric-looking villa area appear in front of him.

Ye Zhu sighed: "Presumably this is also the old man's handwriting!" ”

The driver nodded proudly and said, "Of course, except for our old man, who else would have such a big courage to build such a costly villa area here?" ”

Chi Lian, who had been sitting in the back seat, saw the pride on the driver's face, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this old man really lived up to his reputation, and he could make a driver have such a strong sense of identity with him.

After the car drove into the community and was inspected by the security room, Ye Zhu and Chi Lian successfully met the famous old man.

This old man is dressed in a Tang costume and has a kind face, looking no different from an ordinary old man of country Z, but if you look closely at his eyes, you will see a kind of wisdom accumulated over a long period of time.

At this moment, the old man, just like a hospitable old man, saw Chi Lian and Ye Zhu walking towards this side, revealing a picture of looking at his children and grandchildren, looking at the two kindly, supported by a young girl beside him, and said: "This family has not had a young person visit for a long time, and when I see you today, I feel that my body is a little lighter!" ”

At this time, Chi Lian and Ye Zhu also walked in front of the old man, and when they saw him say this, they also showed an expression of shame, Chi Lian said: "Where, Zhu Zhu and I are very honored to be able to see someone like the old man with our own eyes." ”

After Chi Lian finished speaking, Ye Zhu also said: "Old man, you are too polite, you are not in good health, you are still standing outside, it will not be good if you get cold." ”

Ye Zhu and Chi Lian are the same, they are both respectful, but they lack closeness, because both of them know that no one will be good to you for no reason, unless you are a person who loves flowers and flowers, there is no doubt that neither of them has such talent, and for an old fox like the old man, it is impossible to be so good to them all of a sudden. Although this guess is not good, Ye Zhu knows that at this moment, it is better to be cautious than to stupidly jump into the pit dug by others.

The old man also seemed to hear the deliberateness in Ye Zhu and Chi Lian's tone, and looked at Ye Zhu meaningfully, but didn't say anything, but still smiled and introduced the two of them into the house.

Walking into the door of the old man's house, Ye Zhu knew that it turned out that there were really buildings in this world that could be comparable to the Chi family's mansion, such as here. Why is it so much compared to a pool house? Not because of how spectacular it is, but because it has an extremely rich "connotation".

This small hall is full of recognizable antiques, although Ye Zhu can't tell whether it's real or fake, but she believes that such a prestigious person would never put a fake in the hall that guests can see as soon as they enter the door. Therefore, at this time, Ye Zhu's expression was amazed. Chi Lian was no exception, facing this hall that could be called "luxury", he couldn't help but admire the wealth of his family, but he also felt a sense of humiliation in his heart.

He had never seen such a rich collection in the home of any collector in country Z, but he saw the cultural relics of his own country being used as decoration by others in country M. Thinking of this, Chi Lian's heart was indescribably complicated.

Seeing the exclamation on Ye Zhu's face, the old man said with a smile: "Doctor Ye, what do you think of my furnishings here?" ”

Ye Zhu naturally said with a smile: "The old man's collection here is the richest collection I have ever seen, and it can even be compared to the museum." ”

The old man looked at Ye Zhu and said, "Hehe, these are my collections for many years, and when people are old, they love these old objects, just as a thought." ”

Ye Zhu saw that the old man's face was smug, hesitated for a moment, and said in a changed tone: "Old man, I don't know if I should say some things or not?" ”

Seeing Ye Zhu say this, the old man said with a smile: "Doctor Ye is out of sight, you saved my life yesterday, that is my benefactor of Yu Shi, what else can you not say?" ”

Ye Zhu said with a smile: "Since you said so, old man, then I will say it directly." Antiques are your interest, naturally it is not easy to depriv, but some antiques themselves contain some harmful substances, harmful to the body, if you want to be healthy, it is natural to touch these things less. ”

The old man listened to Ye Zhu's words and did not speak for a long time, but the girl who was holding him on the side couldn't help but say in half-baked Chinese: "You all know that this is my grandfather's beloved thing, and you still asked him not to touch it, what do you have in mind?" ”

Ye Zhu didn't say anything more, in her opinion, she also said what she should say, although the harm of antiques to the human body is not obvious, on the contrary, some ancient jade can raise people, but some bronzes, ancient mirrors and other things are indeed harmful to the human body, and now it is rumored that jadeite has radiation and can cause cancer, for such a weak old man, a little inattention to life will be life-threatening.

The atmosphere suddenly fell into a cold stagnation. It was the old man who took the lead in laughing and said: "Since Dr. Ye said no, then no, let's donate these antiques to the museum of the motherland, haha." ”

As soon as the old man finished speaking, the girl beside him couldn't help but say, "Grandpa, this is your treasure!" It cost a lot of money! After speaking, he looked at Ye Zhu with resentment. In her opinion, her grandfather just listened to Ye Zhu's words and made such an irrational decision. There are still a lot of these treasures that she spent a lot of money to please her grandfather, so it's not good to donate them like this.

When Ye Zhu heard the old man say this, he couldn't help but explain: "Old man, I'm not asking you to completely abandon these antiques, but it's better to touch them a little less, you can find a place to store these things separately, and you can look at them from time to time." Of course, such as ancient jade, you can often carry it close to you, which is good for your body. ”

The old man nodded, he didn't know what it meant, and when he walked into the hall, he said to the big family behind him: "You all go about your own business, let Dr. Ye and Mr. Chi go to the study with me." As soon as his words came out, someone said, "There is no one around the old man, how can this be?" ”

The old man's eyes widened, and the person who spoke immediately lost his voice, it seemed that the old man had absolute authority at home. Seeing that the girl beside the old man had retreated, Ye Zhu stepped forward to help him and followed his prompts to the study.

When they arrived at the study, Ye Zhu and Chi Lian had just sat down, and the old man said, "Listen to Lao Dou, Doctor Ye, your medical skills are good, right?" ”

As soon as the old man said this, Ye Zhu also had a bottom in her heart, and she said modestly: "It's just that I know a little bit of fur, where can I call it good?" ”

When the old man heard Ye Zhu say this, he shook his head and said with a smile: "A person who can be praised by Lao Dou, how can he be a mediocre person, Doctor Ye, you are too modest, just by virtue of the hand you rescued me from the ghost gate yesterday, you can be called a miracle doctor." ”

Ye Zhu saw that the old man praised us like this, and she didn't dwell on this issue anymore, she already knew the old man's intentions, so she said: "The old man invited us here this time, I'm afraid it's for the old wound in your body, right?" ”

The old man saw that Ye Zhu had made his purpose clear, so he said frankly: "Since I was rescued by Dr. Ye yesterday, I feel a lot more relaxed, I heard Xiao Xiao who followed me yesterday, you have the possibility of curing me, I don't know if what Dr. Ye said is true?" ”

Ye Zhu looked at the old man's expectant eyes and said: "I am indeed sure, to be honest, Chi Lian's grandfather also suffered from an old injury, which is very similar to your illness, when I observed your situation yesterday, I felt that I was sure of healing, but the chance of failure was also ......"

Ye Zhu's words were not finished, she knew that the old man knew, what kind of medical surgery was not risky? The choice of whether to do it or not is in the hands of the patient, but Ye Zhu means that she is willing to take the risk to give the old man this operation.

The old man didn't speak, but smiled and turned his eyes to Chi Lian, and said, "Colonel Chi has a mission to come to country M this time, right?" ”

Chi Lian was shocked when the old man explained the purpose of coming to country M, but his face was still as usual, and he said: "Of course, there is a task, we must protect the expert group that came to participate in the seminar this time." ”

The old man looked at Chi Lian meaningfully, smiled and said, "You know that what I said is not this, I know not only your task, but also the people of country M......"
