Chapter 1: The Lee's Mansion

Next Chapter

In March, the long lying winter finally came to an end. Occasionally, a cloud drifts in the blue sky, the warm sun shines on the earth, the spring breeze blows, the fresh air is mixed with a hint of floral fragrance, and from time to time there is a wonderful bird call in the ears, spring is finally here!

The weather warmed up, and after three long months, all kinds of people sprung up on the streets of Cangyang. Merchants from all walks of life hurriedly put out the goods that had been prepared for a long time and were ready to show their strength.

West Street is a well-known rich area, and almost all of Cangyang's famous wealthy merchants live in this area. The Lee House is no exception. As the richest man in the past, Li Mansion is of course the leading wealthy family on this West Street.

The splendid glazed tiles, the painted caissons, the spacious buildings... These external decorations alone all show the magnanimity of the Li Mansion. The house is a small bridge and flowing water, rockeries dripping, flowers and trees, large and small nearly 20 courtyards, although the style is different, but all of them are exquisite and luxurious.

But in the easternmost corner, a high wall divided the Li Mansion in two, except for a small gate on the side for people to pass. If you don't pay attention to it, you think that this wall is the end of the Li Mansion.

The area that was carved out was about an acre, and a tattered yard lay bleakly there. In great contrast to the luxury of the Li Mansion, this courtyard is actually an earthen embryo house.

The yard is not big, only four rooms. A hall, two bedrooms and a kitchen. There is still half an acre of arable land behind the house, but it is abandoned because it has not been cultivated for a long time. If it weren't for the fact that this courtyard was indeed in the Li Mansion, no one would believe that this place also belonged to the Li Mansion. Because it is an authentic farmhouse courtyard from left to right, it can't be linked to the Li Mansion at all. The only fortunate thing is that because of the huge banyan tree in front of the house, this dilapidated yard has also been given a name - Banyan Garden.

At this time, in the dilapidated room, an eleven or twelve-year-old girl was lying quietly on a dilapidated bed, her eyes closed, but her head was constantly running.

It's been five days since she came to this place and became a little girl with the same name and surname, and she still doesn't want to believe it's true.

In her previous life, she worked part-time in addition to studying, but she was born in society because she was too busy with work and had no time, so she really didn't know much about the current popular crossing. Of course, she occasionally hears this word in other people's mouths, but she always refuses to hear it. Joke! As the best surgeon, how could you believe that people have souls? But now, laughing at herself in her heart, she believed.

In her previous life, she grew up in an orphanage. The conditions of the orphanage are not good, and they can only have food and clothing every day. In order to make her life better, she has been suffering from the warmth and coldness of people, and she has been working and studying part-time since junior high school. This kind of day has passed for more than ten years, and almost every industry has left her footprints.

After graduating from high school, he entered the best medical school in China to study clinical medicine with an absolute high score, and after graduating from his bachelor's degree, he was admitted to Harvard Medical School to study for a master's degree and doctorate with a full scholarship.

After returning to China after graduating with a doctorate, he was known as the first knife in China in just four years, and his reputation was world-renowned. As her medical skills got better and her fame grew, so did the corresponding money and status. Unexpectedly, she was at the peak of her life, but she came to this strange place because of a car accident, when she was only thirty-one years old.

Looking back on my 31 years of life, in addition to studying is a part-time job, I dare not relax at all. From an orphan with nothing to a world-renowned doctor, outsiders can't imagine how much effort she has put in. It was not easy to get ahead, and before she had time to enjoy life, she came to this place inexplicably, which made her really unacceptable for a while. So for a few days, she was reluctant to speak, and she didn't care about the qiē around her, and she immersed herself in her own world every day.

A slight sound of footsteps came from Li Liping, interrupting Li Liping's thoughts, and she slowly opened her eyes. The person who came was a woman of about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with a small melon seed face with delicate facial features. Her jet-black hair was coiled high, and a simple hosta was inserted into her hair. It's just that his face is pale, his complexion is very bad, and he looks very haggard. And due to malnutrition, the skin that should have been smooth also showed a hint of dull yellow, but it did not affect her beauty at all, but there was a kind of beauty that people pity. And the soft aura around the beauty makes people feel very comfortable, and they can't help but want to get closer. Such a woman must be conquered by any man, Li Liping sighed in her heart.

Seeing Li Liping open her eyes and look at herself, Liu Shufen walked to the bedside, looked at Li Liping gently, and asked cautiously; "Ping'er, the doctor said that you are fine, but you need to move more. You've been in bed for so many days and it's been a great day, why don't we get up and go outside in the sun? ”。

Feeling Liu Shufen's full of concern, recalling her uninterrupted careful care and waiting day and night in the past few days, looking at her pale and haggard face because of herself, Li Liping's heart suddenly warmed, and she originally thought that she would never be able to call the title for a lifetime and blurted out involuntarily;

"Mother."

As soon as this sentence came out, the two women, one big and one small, were stunned. Liu Shufen's tears welled up all of a sudden, and she looked at Li Liping with excitement on her face, unable to believe her ears.

Ping'er hadn't said a word since she woke up, and every time Ping'er looked at her as if she was looking at a stranger, it scared her. She was afraid that her daughter would become mute, and she was even more afraid that her daughter would never know herself again. As time passed, she became more and more desperate, watching her daughter sink into her own world without saying a word every day, and her heart was like a knife. She didn't dare to cry in front of her daughter, so she could only shed tears silently in the dead of night. was already desperate, but suddenly heard her daughter's voice, she couldn't believe it was true, she was afraid that it was her own hallucination, so she didn't dare to move.
