A leisurely life reborn in the fiery age

Chapter 243 Unscrupulous?

"Don't mention Cao Cao. Cao Cao is here. Isn't it Nie Yu who came here?"

Lou Xiao'e still felt a little guilty and said that when facing Nie Yu, she always seemed to have stolen someone else's home and was born with insufficient confidence.

Li Yuan said with a smile: "Don't say it can't be her, even if it is her, you don't have to be afraid. Stand up tall and face her confidently! You have a bigger heart than she does!"

Lou Xiao'e wrinkled her nose at him and looked at Lou Xiu. Lou Xiu and Nie Yu were much closer. They were pen pals...

Lou Xiu shook her head and said: "She doesn't know the address of our new home, and she can only come out once a month at the end of the month. It's still early."

Li Yuan looked at the two of them in surprise and said, "You two have never told me about this."

Er Lou laughed together: "I can't tell you! By the way, my parents, eldest brother, and second brother are here today..."

The three of them made fun of each other while heading out to greet them.

No matter who you are, you are the first guest in your new home.

After walking along the stone path in the garden to the gate and looking through the carved gate, sisters Lou Xiaoe and Lou Xiu were both surprised. After looking at each other, Lou Xiaoe asked Li Xing to open the door and looked at a figure outside the door. The old lady in gorgeous clothes said, "Grandma Zhang, why are you here?"

This old lady has often come to Longhu Hall in the past two months to buy some Longhu Pills or other medicines, but mostly chatting with Lou Xiao'e or Lou Xiu.

She said that she had come from the mainland before and had lived in Pingjing for a while. Later, she followed her family to Hong Kong Island and wanted to know how the customs and customs in her hometown had changed.

We became more familiar with each other after chatting...

Li Yuan looked at the visitor, a little surprised, but seemed to be expecting it, the wife of the Li family, Zhang Ruilian.

The old lady was accompanied by a woman in a cheongsam and a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old. She was pale, wearing a veil and a big sun hat on her head. The woman in the cheongsam also held a parasol for her. .

There are two more cars behind.

Seeing this, Li Yuan felt somewhat confident.

Zhang Ruilian said with a smile: "Yesterday I was a guest at Sir Kadoorie's house. I heard by chance that your house is moving to a new residence today. I have nothing to do today, so I came to visit and be a guest to seek good luck."

After saying that, the two drivers took out a jade unicorn from the trunk.

Hey!
I have known Wang Shixiang and Zhu Jiazhu for many years, and I know a little bit about some cultural and antique items.

This is Feng Shui jade, the auspicious beast Qilin, it is not ordinary precious!

The Lord brings good luck, promotion and wealth, and prosperity of descendants.

Just looking at the color of the jade, this unicorn will probably be worth half a small target in a few decades.

Li Yuan said cheerfully: "Mrs. Li, why are you here to ask for luck? You are giving a heavy gift. However, if you don't get reward for nothing, you really don't dare to accept it."

Zhang Ruilian was obviously not an ordinary woman. She actually rolled her eyes at Li Yuan, then took the hands of Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu and said, "I'm not familiar with Dr. Li, but I've only known you two sisters for years! Today, I'm here to help My good sisters are here to congratulate me!"

Ok!

Li Yuandu burst into laughter and stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. After he nodded slightly, Lou Xiao'e invited the 80-year-old lady to sit in the room.

As Zhang Ruilian walked in, she praised the beautiful layout of the garden and introduced the people around her: "This is my third daughter-in-law, Lu Yanqun. This is her daughter, Li Yunlan. Aqun is about ten years older than you, not much." .You are all good people, we can interact more in the future!"

After entering the living room and sitting down, Zhang Ruilian saw Li Xing and his younger brother standing obediently beside his father. He liked it so much that he waved to him, looked at him a few times, and said, "My elder brother is like my father, and my younger brother is like my mother. So good, so good!”

As he spoke, he took out the greeting gift again. He was so enthusiastic that he refused to accept it.

Li Yuan was watching the old lady Zhang Luo quietly with a smile on his face...

Old Luo Lan once told Li Yuan about this family. The Lee family was once one of the four major families in Hong Kong. Even though it seems that it has lost its glory now, Causeway Bay is still their family, TVB is also their family, and some other real estate and financial industries , are all involved.

Li Xishen was killed in [-]. He had one wife, three concubines and fifteen children, but he managed not to let the family property be taken away. Instead, he became more and more prosperous.

Simply unimaginable.

Among them, the original wife Huang Lanfang played a great role in setting the world.

However, Huang Lanfang was in poor health, and in the 40s, she gave up the housework at home and handed over the power to Zhang Ruilian.

It's very interesting that as a concubine, Zhang Ruilian gave birth to the eldest son, the second son, and three daughters. She even gave birth to more than Huang Lanfang.

But Huang Lanfang trusted her very much. The two of them were like sisters, and they turned the tide when the sky collapsed and kept the Li family from falling.

Even the next generation was well educated by the two of them working together, and there were never any rumors of internal strife.

Perhaps it was also because Zhang Ruilian made the decision to hand over the Li family's largest property to the third wife's wife, respecting the system of direct eldest son.

This woman is highly respected among the entire upper class circles on Hong Kong Island.

Suddenly, Li Yuan felt that someone had been sizing him up. He turned around and saw the pale girl Li Yunlan hurriedly avoiding her eyes in panic.

On the other hand, her mother, Lu Yanqun, nodded slightly to Li Yuan.

Lou Xiu brought tea, and Li Xing helped distribute the teacups sensibly. Zhang Ruilian and Lou Xiao'e chatted happily, not forgetting to thank Lou Xiu and asking her to sit down quickly.

Zhang Ruilian said to Li Yuan: "Doctor Li, I have heard from Xiao'e that in addition to your superb medical skills, you are also an excellent cook! I wonder if we have the honor to taste it today?"

Li Yuan found it interesting and nodded with a smile.

In my previous life, I was a homebody. I basically didn't want to go out or meet people. I was indifferent to myself.

Life is easy, but it also lacks a lot of excitement.

This life is different. As a human being, I don't want to rush by. I like to observe all kinds of life and observe all kinds of people.

Generally speaking, there are two most beautiful women in the world. One is a charming and loyal young woman. Needless to say, normal men like this.

Another kind is the pitiful love an elderly woman has for her children and grandchildren.

For example, Mrs. Jia Zhang, a person like Erya who usually shows her teeth and claws and has a hateful face, sits in front of her house all day staring at people with a pair of bitch eyes. The reason why Li Yuan didn't like her much is because she saw that when she loved Jia Dongxu, she tried her best and did not hesitate to grovel. To please her, she gave him a few pairs of cloth shoes just so that he could take her son to play with her.

Later, he sacrificed all his smiles for Banggeng. Such a stingy person would not hesitate to spend all his wealth just to bring Banggeng back home.

The loving heart is touching.

The Zhang Ruilian in front of me is also a member of the Zhang family, and it seems to be similar now.

It was obviously because of the girl he brought here today, but he refused to say it directly for fear of being rejected, so he tried his best to please Lou Xiao'e and the two children and get closer to her.

I know it's a tactic, but it's hard to dislike it.

Because what I seek is not fame and fortune, but the lives of my children and grandchildren...

It is worth mentioning that Toshitaka was not born to her, and this granddaughter has no blood relationship with her.

Of course, one size fits all.

If the Li family was an innocent family, it would be enough for Zhang Ruilian to say happy housewarming with nothing.

But this former Gongyan family was really not within the scope of Li Yuan's sympathy.

If it weren't for the fact that the Li family donated education and health funds to the mainland all year round after the reform, Li Yuan wouldn't bother to pay attention.

Don't say nonsense that this girl is innocent and helps whenever she can. She was born into a Li family and enjoyed the prosperity and wealth of the Li family. How can she become innocent?
Therefore, if you really want to seek medical treatment, you will definitely have to pay the price.

This is just an introduction...

This girl is not the only one who needs medical treatment in the Li family. The big head is behind.

Using the wealth of the benefit family to prepare medicine for all people can be regarded as helping the benefit family to atone for the sins of the ancestors.

Li Yuan didn't say much. He was in a happy mood and went to the kitchen to start organizing.

When you come to your door, you are a guest, so we still need to have some basic etiquette...

I made a sauced pork ribs, dried shredded chicken soup, sweet-scented osmanthus salted duck, Luo Han tripe, soy cucumber strips, and finally a pot of shrimp and egg drop soup.

Light, soft and rotten, mainly salty.

Not only to take care of the elderly, but also the two pregnant women at home.

He was fast and it only took him less than an hour.

He didn't even need to greet him, the people in the living room came over on their own as soon as they smelled the fragrance...

Although the range hood was invented during World War II, and one was installed in the kitchen of this mansion, the efficiency was not as high as it would be a few decades later, and the smell was still inevitable.

"Oh, it smells so good!"

Old Mrs. Zhang Ruilian was in good spirits. One arm was supported by Lu Yanqun, and the other hand was holding Lou Xiao'e. She said with a joyful face: "We are here today!"

Not to mention, it’s really Beijing accent and Beijing rhyme.

Lou Xiao'e was overjoyed and said: "Old lady, if you want to eat, you can go to Longfeng Pavilion. I opened a new restaurant on Prince Edward Road. The chef is Mr. Mei Lanfang's brother Wang Shoucheng, the Meifu family chef. He specializes in serious Huaiyang cuisine. Master. The first state banquet in the north will be Huaiyang cuisine, which is especially suitable for an old lady like you."

Zhang Ruilian smiled in surprise and said, "Isn't that right? That's great. I'll go eat there tomorrow. If it's so good, I'll take people there every day to support it! It's really hard for us old guys to find a new restaurant that suits our taste. It's easy." Lu Yanqun also got acquainted a lot and asked: "Xiao'e, when your restaurant opened, did you not advertise it in the newspaper? We didn't even hear about it."

Lou Xiao'e smiled sheepishly and said: "I'm pregnant with a child, so I don't dare to be too public. I'm thinking, don't rush to make a big splash first, and slowly welcome guests with word-of-mouth. After giving birth to the child, I will be more energetic and lively."

Zhang Ruilian nodded repeatedly and said: "That's right, we women still have to put our children first. As long as our children are safe and healthy, everything else is trivial."

Lou Xiao'e nodded, and then looked at Li Yuan.

She was not a fool. How could she not see that there was something wrong with the Li Yunlan brought by Zhang Ruilian and Lu Yanqun? She still hadn't taken off the mask yet.

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Let's eat first. A homely meal, just a few side dishes and a soup."

Zhang Ruilian smiled and said: "That's great! Who would eat those greasy things when eating at home? The more home-cooked the food, the more delicious it is! Alan, you should also eat more."

When Li Yunlan heard this, although she was a little stiff, she still took off the veil in front of everyone's attention.

Li Xing covered his brother's mouth before he exclaimed.

The cheeks that should have been beautiful were covered with butterfly spots.

The eyes of Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu, as well as the eyes of Zhang Ruilian and Lu Yanqun, were directed at Li Yuan for the first time.

But Li Yuan still just smiled and said: "Eat first."

Lu Yanqun couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, but Zhang Ruilian's eyes were filled with excitement, and he called everyone to sit down and taste the delicious food.

After finishing the meal, the old lady was still full of praise and said that she must go to Longfeng Pavilion tomorrow to support her.

Seeing the lunch break, Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiu were both a little sleepy. Zhang Ruilian said to Li Yuan: "Doctor Li, although we have many girls in our family, my granddaughter is particularly different. She is our Mrs. Yuan's favorite granddaughter. She was beaten when she was a child. They look alike, so I keep them around.

I am a concubine, and Mrs. Yuan is the real wife of the Li family.Before she died, she specifically pointed out this child and handed her over to me to raise. She hated me for being so unlucky and failing to raise her well, so that she got such a serious illness. I was unworthy of Mrs. Yuan.

I have looked at hospitals and clinics of all sizes at home and abroad, but there is no good solution..."

Li Yuan asked curiously: "Mrs. Li, can I ask you, where did you hear about my superb medical skills? My wife's words don't count, and my boastful words will not reach your ears."

Zhang Ruilian looked into Li Yuan's eyes, looked at it for a while and then said with a wry smile: "Then I will tell the truth. After you and Sir Kadoorie went to Li's house that day, I sent someone to inquire about your origins. That kind of Buddhism Heavy weapons are not something that ordinary people can possess. But at first, I couldn't find out anything. But then slowly, I found some clues. Dr. Li is actually the owner of Longhu Hall and a doctor. He just came from the mainland. , I met Sir Kadoorie not long ago. For people like us, it is not difficult to know whether Sir Kadoorie is in good health. Many people know that Sir Kadoorie's heart is not very good..." Apart from medical skills, she really couldn't think of anything else. How could a mainlander get such attention from the Kadoorie family?

Li Yuan smiled and said, "I'm afraid this doesn't mean anything, right?"

Zhang Ruilian smiled and said: "So, I was just a little suspicious, and then I often went to Longhu Hall to sit and chat with people. Unexpectedly, I got along well with Xiao'e and Xiuxiu, and we chatted a lot. And there is also Longhu Hall. The doctor who is sitting here is Huang Daoyi. From his words, I can hear his admiration and recognition of you. Huang Daoyi’s background is easy to check. He is a doctor with very good medical skills. Even he admires you so much, and then Combined with Sir Kadoorie's courtesy to you, it is not difficult for me to guess that you are a very skilled doctor.

Dr. Li, I hope for the sake of Buddha, you can show compassion and save my granddaughter! "

As he said that, he clasped his hands together and gave Li Yuan a Buddhist salute.

Li Yuan also returned one to her...

Lu Yanqun: "..."

Erlou: "..."

Li Yuan pondered for a while and said: "This disease is called lupus erythematosus in Western medicine. It is a systemic autoimmune disease with no cure. In traditional Chinese medicine, this disease is considered to be an innate deficiency, but it is not considered a terminal illness. Since the innate deficiency is innate, then we need to recreate the innate deficiency. . You can give it a try, I can’t guarantee it, but I have great hope.”

Zhang Ruilian said excitedly: "Are you really hopeful? Okay, okay, okay! I'll tell you, Alan is protected by her grandmother, so he definitely doesn't deserve to die!"

Lu Yanqun was also quite happy. She held her daughter's hand, shook it vigorously, and said, "Alan, did you hear that? Chinese medicine can still save you! Even Sir Kadoorie trusts Dr. Li so much. He is a real miracle doctor!"

Li Yuan shook his head again and sighed: "Unfortunately, I have a concern..."

The Lee family was stunned when they heard the words, and Zhang Ruilian hurriedly said: "Dr. Li, if you have any concerns, you can tell us. Although our Lee family is not as good as the Kadoorie family, we can still handle some small things."

Li Yuan said cheerfully: "That's for sure. You have found out all my details in less than three days. Of course the Li family is capable. But what I am worried about is your family's ability.

Madam, I believe in Buddhism and cause and effect.For the poor people, we can save lives and heal the wounded. Even if it is free, we will do our best when we encounter it, because we poor people have low lives and the cause and effect are not important.

The people who are most reluctant to receive medical treatment are those who are rich and powerful. I have hardly ever seen a doctor for such people, and most of them have been rejected.

The reason why he was willing to take action for old Roland was because before he knew that his surname was Kadoorie, he told me that he had bombed the China Electric Power Plant on the eve of the Japanese invasion of Hong Kong Island and that he was one of his own.Because of this, I was willing to take action to cure his heart disease.As luck would have it, he is now recovering.

But you benefit the family... To be honest, it's a bit hard to hear, but the sin is indeed not light.

The harm caused by Ya Pian is endless.

I believe in cause and effect. Li Xishen's death was unclear, which is already one of the retributions.

Old madam, you have a benevolent heart and respect for Buddhism, and have donated a lot, which has solved a large part of the disaster for the children you gave birth to.

But what came out of the big house... In fact, it was not just Miss Li, including her biological father. Because he was the eldest son of the Li family and the core position, he inherited most of the karma of the Li family and suffered from mental illness.

He won't live long.

Thanks to the old lady for worshiping the Buddha and inviting the Buddha to come home to deter sins, otherwise...

But no matter what, treating your family members, especially those with life-changing illnesses, is a huge responsibility for me.

Madam, I suggest you look for other famous doctors.Read them all. If you have no choice, come to me again.

But the ugly thing is that the poor people are given medical treatment for free.Treating rich people...

For example, Mr. Kadoorie's medical fee includes the current residence, [-] acres of land on Tsing Yi Island, and the pharmaceutical factory built on it.

You can go to Jazz to confirm and then consider it. "

Zhang Ruilian was distracted for a moment. She did not expect that Li Yuan would speak so loudly.

Lu Yanqun also said angrily: "Dr. Li, are you too greedy?"

Li Yuan asked curiously: "Mrs. Li, compared with selling public cigarettes, which one is more immoral and shameless?"

"you……"

Lu Yanqun almost died of anger.

Li Yuan smiled and said: "So I'm just saying, you can go to other places to see first. If you really have no other choice, come back to me. But if you delay your illness, it's not my fault. But if it's really not good, I'll just Charge 50 consultation fees.”

This word is so well used...

Zhang Ruilian stopped the furious Lu Yanqun. The gray-haired woman looked at Li Yuan and said, "Including Yunlan and her father, how much does it cost in total?"

Li Yuan thought for a while and said, "Is Li Xiaohe working on TVB, a free TV station? The requirements are not high, I want [-]% of the shares."

Seeing Zhang Ruilian staring at him, Li Yuan smiled and said: "Old lady, I want shares in TVB just to facilitate advertising for pharmaceutical companies in the future. I am not a pharmaceutical company to make money, but to benefit the world. People's livelihood medicines that help the world and bring peace to the people are cheap medicines that accumulate merit.

If I just want to make money, I can just treat the powerful and wealthy. I can also use acupuncture to regulate qi and prolong their life. How much money can't I make?
Of course, I also know that it is basically impossible for Toshitaka and I to agree on this matter.

In the entire Hong Kong Island, except for Sir Kadoorie, it is unlikely that there is another person who would agree to this plan.

But it doesn't matter, I never thought about treating the rich and powerful.

I told old Luo Lan clearly that people like them deserve to die.By living on their own and depleting resources, the lives of the people at the bottom will become increasingly miserable. "

Zhang Ruilian said: "What did Sir Kadoorie say?"

Li Yuan laughed and said: "Old Roland just laughed out loud, pointed at me and said, Li, you are the same person as us.

Yes, that’s right, sooner or later my family will become a very wealthy family, and I will become someone like you with countless resources.

So when I reach the age of about one hundred and twenty-three, I will die if I die. Why do I still want to live forever?As for why I can live to be one hundred and twenty-three... it should have something to do with my medical skills.But who told me to do it myself?
If you don't know how to do it, and you still want to change your destiny, won't you have to pay a big price? "

……

"Yuanzi, is this okay?"

After the Li family had left, Li Yuan accompanied Er Lou upstairs for a lunch break. Lou Xiao'e was lying on the bed, leaning against the bedside, and asked a little uneasily.

Li Yuan cheerfully helped the two wives take turns massaging their legs. Pregnant women put more pressure on their waist and legs than ordinary people, so they are prone to swelling and pain.

Hearing Lou Xiao'e say this, he smiled and said: "What's wrong? I never thought about being a doctor for the rich and powerful. If I can get the things in their hands, it will be faster and more convenient to do things in the future. I can't get it." I won’t lose anything, just take my time step by step, I’m not in a hurry.”

Lou Xiu couldn't hold back and gently touched Li Yuan's face and said, "I almost thought you were going to become an ambitious person who wants to be rich."

Li Yuan laughed and said: "Don't worry, our family will definitely become rich. But becoming rich will not affect our attitude and living habits. When we wake up in the morning, we still have a bowl of shredded pork noodles and two eggs. We will Become a rich and powerful person, but not a slave to fame, fortune and power.”

Lou Xiao'e shook her head and said with a complex expression: "I don't understand. They are all for making money, what's the difference?"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "The difference is huge. To be a slave to money is to make money. You can do anything to earn it. Everything you do is for one word, that is money. As for being the master of money, we work hard. The direction is a career you like, making money is only one of the results of hard work, far from the main reason."

Lou Xiao'e stared at Li Yuan and suddenly burst out laughing. Lou Xiu couldn't hold it back either, she was laughing happily.

Because no matter how you look at it, Li Yuan belongs to the first category of unscrupulous people!
Li Yuan had no choice but to help them push inside and let them feel his heart more closely, how noble he was...
