Wu Pen's work is perfect, Perfect Son-in-law Chapter 10: Visiting the Wealthy Mother

  ……

  Qiao Wu gazed calmly at him, her eyes unwavering, not giving an inch.

  When everyone thought the noble ruffian was going to beat him up, he unexpectedly stretched out his hand and pushed back Cheng Erde, who had rolled up his sleeves. In the mind of the noble ruffian, he didn't want to fight with the Zhong family because of Cheng Erde's small matter and delay Master Zhong from treating his mother's illness.

  "Please." The noble ruffian looked at this scholar, who actually dared to look him straight in the eye without dodging or flinching, and couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for him, so he spoke politely.

  This made Zhong Qing and Funiu both surprised.

  Kao Wu's face faintly smiled as he stepped forward and walked away.

  "Halt." The noble ruffian spoke up.

  Kao Wu didn't stop, Zhong Qing and Funiu thought he had changed his mind. But then the noble ruffian said: "Rich second generation, they want to go in to rescue my mother-in-law Cheng Yaojin, you don't need to go in."

  It wasn't Awu's fault, Awu said. This nobleman is not a good person, to say the least. My own character and charm are still considerable, how could I be stopped? The one with poor character is indeed Funi Ma.

  Nima de, this guy is indeed a rich second-generation scum!

  The noble ruffian won't call the wrong person, it's this guy, I've got him marked down, when I get back, it's payback time!

  However, this aristocratic rogue was actually the historically famous General Cheng Yaojin, who would later become a thunderclap to the ears! At that time, Cheng Yaojin was still young, only in his early twenties; at that time he had not yet changed his name to Cheng ZhiJie; at that time he was still a large landowner who owned vast tracts of fertile land, countless tenant farmers, and oppressed peasants, but had not yet become the leader of the peasant uprising army gathered at Liangshan, with heroic deeds and merits that shook heaven and earth, overthrowing the ruling class!

  Just saw him for the first time, and indeed he is like the Mixed World Demon King Cheng Yaojin in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, while the historical records of Cheng Zhijie are honest and straightforward, which is obviously untrue. It's probably because historians were intimidated by Cheng Yaojin's prestige and didn't dare to write the truth, so they could only write a great and glorious character in history books.

  The rich second generation who was stopped by Cheng Yaoguang's shout, his face turned red with embarrassment, and he said: "Officer Cheng, I came to visit Nian specially..."

  "The old lady is critically ill and cannot receive guests." Fang Zhen's eyebrows furrowed.

  The young master's voice was choked, he couldn't be as straightforward and confident as Ao Wu, telling Cheng Yaoguang that he was a man from the Zhong family, and then walking in with big strides. He awkwardly fiddled with his paper fan and said bluntly: "Officer Cheng, I won't go in to disturb Doctor Zhong's treatment, but even doctors can't do everything, some illnesses are incurable. If Doctor Zhong is unable to cure it, please don't make things difficult for him or Madame Zhong!"

  Cheng Yaojin's thick eyebrows shot up, his voice low and menacing like a volcano on the verge of eruption, "What makes you think that?"

  "Ah, then I'll ask you to put our friendship aside for now..." The rich second-generation young man clasped his hands together in request.

  "Hahaha..." Cheng Yaojin laughed with his mouth wide open.

  Qiao Wu looked at his mouth beside him, with white and shiny teeth, really good teeth. This mouth looks like a bloody big mouth!

  Cheng Yaojin took a step forward, closing in on the rich second-generation heir. His voice was cold and menacing, like thunder rolling in: "Rich young master, you really have good relationships, all of which can be used to exchange for an old mother. I see that the tender and beautiful old mother is seductive, and with a good relationship, can one sleep with her for a night?"

  This is when he said in front of his son that he wanted to do his mother, it can be seen that Cheng Yaojin was furious to the extreme, and it can also be seen that his personality is a fiery thug to the extreme!

  Beside her, the pure and snowy lotus-like Zhong Qing heard these words, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, such words polluted her ears and also polluted her soul, feeling extremely disgusted.

  The rich second generation's face turned purple, and he was so angry that his body trembled. The face turning purple is not an exaggeration or artistic processing, but a real phenomenon. When the oxygen content of red blood cells in human blood is too low, the blood will turn into a purplish-red color, and the skin will also show a purplish hue. So why did the rich second generation have low oxygen levels in his red blood cells at this time? It's because he was so angry that he couldn't catch his breath, and the air was stuck in his chest, with old air not coming out and new air not going in. The blood circulation had no oxygen, so his face turned purple. I'm afraid if he continues to suffocate, he will go into hypoxic shock!

  However, he was so angry that he didn't dare to retort a single sentence, let alone take action. Ao Wu used his middle finger to despise the rich second generation, and was scolded, yet he didn't even dare to make a sound.

  It's okay to say that the rich second generation is spoiled, but more importantly, it's because of the different status and class between the two. The Sui Dynasty despised merchants, and the status of merchants was very low, even lower than ordinary people. Salt merchants were also merchants. Cheng Yaojin was a landlord, with a higher status than ordinary people, and two classes away from the rich second generation.

  Being two classes apart does not mean they don't interact with each other, there can be interest relationships between them. The landlords have a background relationship and have peasants producing crops for them, the merchants have channels and means of doing business, the landlords can sell their crops through the merchants' hands to make money, of course, there are also some shady businesses that allow the landlords to reap benefits.

  The rich second generation said that they had a good relationship with Cheng Yaojin, and it was because his family's salt business often gave Cheng Yaojin a sweet deal, cultivating cross-class feelings.

  However, this cross-class affection is very fragile. When it touches the bottom line of Cheng Yaojin or exceeds his tolerance, it will shatter. Cheng Yaojin is a filial person, and the rich second generation's plea for mercy equates his mother's life with friendship, how can he agree?

  The second generation of rich people didn't dare to offend the landlord class's Cheng family, even after being scolded they didn't dare to retort.

  Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, let out a heavy sigh, and then walked inside.

  "Halt." Another "Halt" rang out.

  This time it wasn't Cheng Erde who said it, nor was it Cheng Yaowen who said it, but rather it came from Zhong Qing's small mouth. She was speaking to Cheng Yaowen.

  Her clear voice asked: "Officer Cheng, what's the point of making things difficult for me three or four times? I'm in a hurry to deliver medicine to my master and have it used by the old lady. Are you not willing to let the old lady be treated?"

  Her words were powerful and sonorous, stunning Cheng Yaojin into silence.

  Zhong Qing politely said to the rich second generation: "Rich young master, please."

  She continued to threaten: "Whoever dares to stop one more person, is not sincere in saving the old lady, I won't go in either." She was really annoyed by these extra troubles.

  Jing Ke was silent this time.

  The face of the rich second generation has a trend from purple to black, but after Zhong Qing said please, he had to take a step forward.

  Ao Wu, who was watching from the side, almost burst out laughing.

  Zhong Qing's way of handling things was indeed very forceful, but it ended up being counterproductive.

  The rich second generation, who was humiliated by Cheng Yaojin, would only continue to feel embarrassed and humiliated if he stayed here. Since he couldn't save face here, it's better to leave. But Zhong Qing rebutted Cheng Yaojin at this time and asked the rich second generation to go in. This is like pushing the rich second generation into a fire pit, but she didn't have that kind of awareness.

  The second-generation rich man was still panting, but after being invited by Zhong Qing, he had no reason to leave. Or, under the kindness of a beauty, he couldn't bear to leave, so he could only take a step forward with a heavy heart. This was just a small step, but it was a big step towards debasement and shamelessness in life!

  The greatest joy in life is when someone you want to bully gets bullied by others first!

  At this moment, I am very happy, haha, wahahaha!

  Jing Gang turned around and led them inside. The high residence had a large courtyard, although it wasn't luxurious, but it was majestic.

  Entering the backyard, under a willow tree in the yard, a middle-aged man wearing a black long shirt and a black hat without feet sat on a stone chair. On the stone table in front of him was a cup of tea. The tea had gone cold, but the middle-aged man didn't touch it, instead he furrowed his brow in thought.

  Zhong Qing saw the middle-aged man and her eyes lit up, softly calling out: "Ah Ye!"

  The middle-aged man turned around, and his appearance was similar to Zhong Qing's. He should be Zhong Qing's father, Zhong Shen Yi. With such a big daughter, he should be in his early 40s. His skin was smooth and shiny, plump without wrinkles, his hair was black and dense, and the three small mustaches on his lips and chin were black and shiny. If he swung his arm and shouted "Using Rejoice makes you so carefree!", it would really be stylish. No wonder he's a great doctor, this nourishing method is indeed awesome.

  At this time, his face was calm and there was no panic of being detained. His slightly furrowed brow was only due to worry that the patient's illness had not been cured yet. At this moment, seeing his daughter arrive, he did not show any surprise, but simply nodded calmly. It can be seen that Zhong Shenyi's heart is very good.

  His eyes fell on Ao Wu's body, somewhat unexpectedly.

  Qiao Wu clasped his fists and said: "The young son-in-law has seen the father-in-law."

  He nodded and said, "Good."

  The rich second generation following behind him had now collected his thoughts and walked forward to pay respects to Zhong Shenyi, saying: "Junior nephew has seen uncle!"

  The face of Zhong Shenyi changed color again, but he just nodded and said: "Good."

  The name of the divine doctor is Zhong Hua, and his family has been doctors for generations. The medical skills have been passed down through several generations, becoming more and more exquisite. Therefore, Zhong Hua, who inherited the superb medical skills, has saved countless people in over 30 years and is revered as the divine doctor Zhong.

  In addition to the scarcity of doctors in ancient times, many people were ill and had no doctor to see them, so ordinary people generally respected doctors very much. When encountering anything, they would be polite and courteous. This was also why Cheng Yaojin, despite shouting that Zhong Hua couldn't cure his mother's illness and detaining him at the Cheng residence, still wanted to avenge his death, but when Ao Wu and others arrived, Zhong Shenyi was very free and easy, and was treated quite well. Cheng Yaojin was angry, but before losing all hope, he didn't dare do anything to the divine doctor.

  Zhong Qing walked over with the sandalwood box and handed it to her father.

  Zhong Shenyi opened it to confirm.

  Inside was a ginseng of over ten years, bought from the Mohe people, and had been kept at home as a family treasure. This time, in order to save Mother Cheng, someone had to be sent to fetch it.

  Kangwu saw the ginseng in the box, and his eyes lit up. This was a piece of ginseng containing spiritual energy, although not much, far inferior to the spiritual grass in the immortal world, but it was thousands of times better than the ginseng without any spiritual energy in later generations.

  "Take the above-mentioned 10 qian of Ligusticum wallichii, cut it into small pieces, and then add 5 qian of Longan Aril, 3 qian of Platycladus orientalis seed, 2 qian of Asparagus cochinchinensis... Grind them to extract the iron rust concentrated decoction. Boil two bowls of water down to one bowl of soup over low heat!" Doctor Zhong picked up the pen and paper on the table and wrote it down.

  Qing who was beside him listened seriously, and after Zhong Sheng heard her finish speaking, she nodded slightly.

  Taking over the sandalwood box, Zhong Qing looked at Cheng Yaojin and asked: "Is there a knife for cutting medicine?"

  Because her father was fine, Zhong Qing's hostility towards Cheng Yaojin also decreased.

  Cheng Yaojin nodded: "Yes."

  "Go buy the medicine on this prescription." Zhong Qing handed him the prescription.

  The rich second generation said: "Xu's pharmacy is the best in Dong'a County, my family and Xu's have some connections, we can get the best medicine, let me go!"

  He is now losing face here, finding something to do can salvage some of it.

  Zhong Qing nodded and handed him the prescription.

  Cheng Yaojin then took Zhong Qing to cut medicine.

  In the yard, apart from the servants of the Cheng family, there were only Zhong Shenyi and Ao Wu left.

  Kang Wu's heart couldn't help but feel a little worried. If Zhong Shenyi asked him something, he wouldn't know what to say. What could he do?

  Indeed, good thoughts are ineffective, while evil thoughts come true.

  Zhong Shenyi let out a light sigh: "I don't know if Liao Can's medicine can wake up Old Lady Cheng." It can be seen that he is also uncertain in his heart. After finishing speaking, he looked at Ao Wu and asked: "A'wu, how have you been getting along with Qingniang at home? Have there been any conflicts?"

  Kao Wu thought it was going to be a disaster, but it turned out to be this matter. This Zhong Shen Yi really understands his daughter and son-in-law, worrying that they would quarrel at home. He actually guessed it right, Zhong Qing had been so angry with the scholar that he went to hang himself.

  But I don't know what specific things are and can't say them. Another thing is that even if the couple has conflicts, it's not suitable to tell adults.

  "No." Ao Wu said, staring straight into his eyes.
