Chapter 1224: Meet You Again When Flowers Fall (24)
Not long after returning to the banquet, the welcoming banquet came to an end.
After leaving the Huo Mansion with his colleagues and on the way home, several officials who were traveling with him began to discuss the opening of Taoist Priest Huaning's clinic the next day or the day after tomorrow.
It turned out that Dou Yuanzheng had just announced at the banquet that Taoist Priest Huaning would only see a maximum of five patients a day, and they would be arranged in order from the severity of their illness to the mildest.
Zhao De said with some emotion: "My brother Lao Ma, when he heard that he was assigned to the first position, he was very excited."
"It's normal. He was a great archer back then, but he lost one of his eyes because of an injury to his left eye." Yang Jing couldn't help but sigh when he heard that the other party had kicked Lao Ma. "Who would have thought that the injury hadn't healed properly all these years?
Now it has affected the other eye. The military doctor said before that if it can’t be cured, then the right eye can’t be saved! He used to have the best eyesight. If he really can’t see in the future, he will...”
Wei Yanshan didn't answer as he listened to several people talking.
Many people arrived home one after another. Zhao De, who lived just across the street from Wei Yanshan's house, said, "Master Wei, Taoist Master Hua Ning is an excellent doctor. Maybe your leg can really be cured."
"Let's take a look first! My leg has been hurting for several years. I wonder if it can be cured?" Wei Yanshan knew that Du Ruoheng was an excellent doctor, but his impression of this childhood sweetheart was still stuck in many years ago. So even though he knew that the other party was capable, he couldn't help but doubt it.
Seeing his expression, Zhao De didn't say much.
The moon was at its zenith, and Wei Yanshan finally returned to his house.
"Dad!" His daughter Wei Qing, who had been waiting in the yard for a long time, came forward and said, "Dad, I made you some hangover soup. Have some!"
When he was about ten years old, he was taller than other children because he looked like Wei Yanshan.
Startled by his daughter's sudden appearance, Wei Yanshan frowned slightly and said, "It's so late, why aren't you resting yet? Are you just trying to make me some hangover soup?"
It’s not that Wei Yanshan wants to doubt his daughter, but before he left today, the conflict at home had not been resolved. He suspected that his daughter Wei Qing wanted to cry and complain to him at this moment.
Speaking of which, my daughter Wei Qing was raised by Li Yuemei until she was five years old, so she did learn about 70% of her "pretending to be weak" spirit.
In the past, Wei Yanshan was most fond of Li Yuemei's tricks, but after using them so many times, he also started to get used to them.
Therefore, Li Yuemei did not have a son in the past five years, not only because she had injured herself before, but also because Wei Yanshan seldom slept with her.
Later, Wei Yang's son was an accident.
When Wei Yanshan was young, he had a good impression of women like Li Yuemei, but he felt that Du Ruoheng was too smart and capable, and too strong for him to like.
But now that he is almost 30, Wei Yanshan feels upset when he sees his daughter behaving in the same way as Li Yuemei - such a small family may not be considered a good family in the future.
Wei Qing looked at her father looking at her. She pursed her lips and tears welled up in her eyes: "Daddy, I..."
"Okay! I knew you would be the first to complain!" Before he could finish his words, Wei Yang and Liu appeared together, "Dad, don't listen to your sister. She is so mean. She stole the money from home to buy an expensive hairpin.
When my aunt discovered that the silver was missing and asked a few more questions, she started crying and complaining that my aunt was treating her harshly. She also threatened my aunt that she would sell me out when my father came back!
"Wei Yang?" Wei Qing said sadly, "We are siblings, how can you say that to me?"
Wei Yang didn't seem to feel guilty, but instead said confidently: "I am standing up for what is right, not for my relatives. You are wrong, and that's it."
"Master!" Liu bowed to Wei Yanshan, not mentioning the matter at all. Instead, she asked, "Did you meet Taoist Priest Huaning today? Did she say if there's still a chance for your leg?"
Wei Yanshan was very touched by the concern from the other side. Compared with his daughter's little matter, he felt that Liu was the one who cared about him. Unconsciously, his heart leaned towards her, "Qing'er, you are already ten years old.
How can you still be so ignorant? We have a clear plan for how and where our family's money is spent. No matter what, you shouldn't steal money.
Since you like that hairpin, then keep it!"
Wei Qing, who thought her father was on her side, didn't have time to rejoice when Wei Yanshan continued, "The money will be doubled from your monthly allowance."
"I knew that Daddy is the most fair!" Wei Yang jumped up happily.
Wei Yanshan didn't say anything else and went back to his room to take a shower.
Just when I was halfway through my bath, Liu came in and said shyly, "Master, I will help you bathe."
With a sudden thought, he was about to keep the person, but when he saw the moon-white robe hanging aside, Wei Yanshan suppressed his desire and said, "No, you can go out!"
Liu was reluctant, but facing Wei Yanshan's serious gaze, she had no choice but to leave the room.
After the people left, Wei Yanshan wiped his face with a wet towel and muttered to himself, "It's time to find a wife. I wonder if there's still a chance."
