Ever since Zou Hao opened his heart to the Pei family, the relationship between the Pei family and Zou Hao has become closer.

Zou Hao smiled more often.

Pei Tiantian took advantage of the weekend to take Zou Hao to Zeng Hong's place and asked Zeng Hong to personally check out his leg injury.

Zeng Hong first pressed Zou Hao's legs with his hands and asked where it hurt.

Zou Hao told Zeng Hong everything.

Zeng Hong pondered: "There was more than one person who injured your leg, right?"

Zou Hao nodded.

He was surrounded by a group of people at that time.

Zeng Hong: "These guys were pretty ruthless. If you didn't have a good foundation, it would be a miracle that you can still feel your legs now."

When Zou Hao heard this, his pupils constricted.

He dragged his injured leg through the deep mountains and forests for three days and three nights before he finally got out.

Being able to save one's life is a blessing in disguise.

"Your leg didn't receive good treatment afterwards, so it's unlikely to be cured in a short period of time. You'll need to receive acupuncture for at least a year."

"Old man, let alone one year, even if it takes two or three years, I am willing. As long as you can cure me, I am willing to pay any price."

Zeng Hong smiled and stroked his beard. "You young man, what do you want me to pay? Well, I just want to ask you one question: can you bear the pain? The pain of acupuncture is comparable to breaking a leg. If you can bear it, I will give you acupuncture now."

Zou Hao nodded firmly, "I can, I'm a soldier, I'm not afraid of pain."

Seeing that Zou Hao showed no fear at all, Zeng Hong went upstairs and took out a pair of silver needles.

He disinfected the silver needle first, then said, "Tiantian, Gu Rong, help me fix his leg."

Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong squatted on one side, holding Zou Hao's thighs with their hands.

Zeng Hong pointed at Zou Hao's leg and said to Pei Tiantian, "Tiantian, guess which acupoints the master will start with."

Pei Tiantian looked at Zou Hao's legs and said, "Master, I guess you will start with Shang Juxu, Xia Juxu, and Fenglong."

"What else?"

"Then there are the Ashi point, Zusanli point, and Sanyinjiao point."

Listening to Pei Tiantian speaking those incomprehensible professional terms,

A look of shock appeared in Zou Hao's eyes.

It turns out that Tiantian really knows medical skills, and seems to be very proficient in it.

She is only six years old and she is so amazing. Zou Hao feels extremely relieved.

He was a poor student and could never keep up with the students at school. He never expected that his niece was so smart. No wonder the old man was willing to take him in as his apprentice.

"Master, would you like to give my uncle acupuncture yourself?"

Zeng Hong nodded, "That's right, you are not good at this set of acupuncture techniques, and you can't control it yet. Just watch how the master performs the acupuncture. Zou Hao's leg injury is very serious, and the hand strength and force of the person performing the acupuncture are very high. It must be fast, accurate and ruthless, otherwise it will not work as it should. Tiantian, you have to watch carefully and see how the master does it."

Pei Tiantian nodded, staring at Zeng Hong intently.

Zeng Hong held several silver needles in his hand. In an instant, Pei Tiantian only saw a flash. The silver needles in Zeng Hong's hand had already been steadily inserted into the Shangjuxu, Xiajuxu and Fenglong acupoints in Zou Hao's legs.

Zou Hao didn't feel anything at first, but suddenly a numbness and soreness came to his legs, and Zou Hao's legs began to shake unconsciously.

"Tiantian, Gu Rong, steady his legs."

The two children nodded and grabbed Zou Hao's legs to hold him down.

Zeng Hong took out a few silver needles and quickly inserted them into Zou Hao's Ashi point, Zusanli point, and Sanyinjiao point.

Zou Hao now not only felt soreness and numbness, but even felt as if a hammer was constantly hitting the most painful parts of his calves.

Zou Hao's face turned pale. He clenched his teeth tightly, enduring wave after wave of soreness, numbness, swelling and pain. The waves kept coming, causing veins on his forehead to bulge.

"Be patient." Zeng Hong said.

Zou Hao's forehead was already covered with sweat, he gritted his teeth and nodded.

"The more it hurts, the more serious the injury in your leg is. It's normal to feel pain. From now on, every time I give you acupuncture, your pain will be reduced a little bit. Until the last time it doesn't hurt, your leg injury will be completely healed."

Zeng Hong's calm voice rang in Zou Hao's ears. Zou Hao was already seeing stars due to the pain, but he still persisted.

He couldn't just pass out like this, he was a soldier.

He also couldn't lose face in front of Tiantian.

Reciting these thoughts silently, Zou Hao finally persevered. An hour passed after he finished the acupuncture.

Zou Hao looked as if he had been soaked in water and had just been pulled out, looking extremely miserable.

Pei Tiantian felt distressed when she saw this. "Uncle, it's over. You can rest now. It won't hurt soon."

Zou Hao listened to Pei Tiantian's voice and forced a smile.

Pei Tiantian ran to the kitchen to get an enamel cup, poured spiritual spring water into it, and placed it next to Zou Hao's mouth, "Uncle, drink some water."

Zou Hao was indeed very thirsty, his lips were dry. He nodded and drank water in big gulps.

The water was sweet and delicious, and Zou Hao drank the whole glass unconsciously. "Tiantian, I want to drink more..."

Pei Tiantian nodded and pretended to run to the kitchen to pour him some water, but in fact she took another cup of spiritual spring water from the space.

Feed Zou Hao again.

After drinking the water, Zou Hao felt much better. He lay on the couch, breathing slightly.

"Tiantian, Gu Rong, take this prescription and boil the medicine for Zou Hao to drink."

Zeng Hong wrote a prescription and gave it to them, then took a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off Zou Hao.

Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong went upstairs to the pharmacy to select the medicinal materials, and then put them into the medicine pots to boil them.

"I heard from Tiantian that you offended some big shot, so he hurt you like this. Tell me honestly who did this?"

Zou Hao was silent for a moment, and then told Zeng Hong everything that had happened to him.

Zeng Hong's eyes paused. It turned out to be the boy from the Xiao family, Xiao Hongfei.

When he left Beijing, Xiao Hongfei was just a teenager. The old man of the Xiao family doted on this grandson and gave him whatever he wanted.

Although Xiao Hongfei was a bit willful, he would not treat human life as worthless.

In just a few years, Xiao Hongfei has become so cruel that he doesn't even take human life seriously.

Zeng Hong sneered: "It seems that the old man of the Xiao family really doesn't know how to teach his grandson."

Xiao Hongfei was raised to be such a bad person.

Power and desire can indeed make a person ugly and arrogant.

Zeng Hong once again felt what a correct decision it was to leave Beijing.

Lin Chao is not like him, a loner who can abandon everything and leave the center of the vortex of power.

Lin Chao had no choice but to stay there.

Although his disciple was praised to the sky by everyone, it was lonely at the top and Zeng Hong knew how difficult it was for Lin Chao.

After Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong boiled the medicine, they brought it down and gave it to Zou Hao to drink.

Zou Hao also recovered his strength, so he took Pei Tiantian and Gu Rong back.

Before leaving, Zeng Hong repeatedly reminded him that the acupuncture site must not come into contact with water within 24 hours.

Zou Hao nodded, "Thank you, old man."

After saying this, they left the bamboo building.

Only after Pei Tiantian sent Zou Hao back home did he feel relieved and return to the Pei family with Gu Rong.

As soon as Pei Tiantian returned home, she received a large envelope handed to her by Pei Zhiwen.

When she saw the address in Jingshi, she immediately realized it was Bao Baobai's address.

Pei Tiantian excitedly opened the envelope, which contained a piece of letter paper, a latest comic book, and a contract.

Pei Tiantian opened the letter and saw Bao Baobai saying that he turned 18 last month, so he sent the signed contract to Pei Tiantian.

Pei Tiantian put the letter aside, then picked up the contract and turned to the last page of the contract. The three words "He Zhixing" caught her eye.

Bao Baobai is He Zhixing, and he is also the uncle who is on good terms with the villain boss.

She had been right all along.

Gu Rong suddenly heard Pei Tiantian's thoughts. His hands, which were originally packing books, paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at Pei Tiantian strangely.

Why does Pei Tiantian have contact with people from the He family?

"What is this?" Gu Rong pointed at the comic book and the contract on Pei Tiantian's desk.

Gu Rong knew that Pei Tiantian was writing a novel, but he didn't quite understand how Pei Tiantian was connected to someone from the He family, and that person was his uncle.

Pei Tiantian glanced at Gu Rong and said, "Brother Gu Rong, this is a comic book! My novel has been made into a comic and published here. Take a look!"

Pei Tiantian opened the comic book, found the comic adapted from her novel, and showed it to Gu Rong.

Gu Rong took a look and happened to turn to that page. This was the very beginning of the comic. The overbearing male protagonist was seductively and wildly pressing the female protagonist against the wall, and then said, "Woman, I warn you, stop playing tricks."

The heroine sneered, raised her hand and slapped the CEO hero several times.

Gu Rong: “…”

"So what is this contract?"

Pei Tiantian: "This is what the artist who drew the comics for me sent me. He wants to make a comic based on my novel, so we must sign a contract. This is called legal authorization. Brother Gu Rong, don't you understand this?"

Pei Tiantian thought that the villain would never have guessed in his dreams that the artist who drew the picture for him was his own uncle.

Gu Rong: “…”

He already knows.

"By the way, Brother Gu Rong, when did you become so interested in my novel?"

Pei Tiantian looked at Gu Rong suspiciously. She still remembered the complicated expression on Gu Rong's face when he first opened her novel.

Pei Tiantian knew from that time that the villain boss would definitely not like this kind of brainless and refreshing novel. After all, the books that Gu Rong is reading are becoming more and more profound, and with his taste, he would not like this kind of novel.

So she seldom mentioned her novel in front of Gu Rong.

But today, Gu Rong suddenly changed his personality.

Gu Rong: "I'm just asking casually."

"Really?"

"Um."

Pei Tiantian looked at the villain. Gu Rong's face was still expressionless, and it seemed that he was not lying.

Pei Tiantian then withdrew her gaze and walked out of the house holding the contract.

At her current age, she naturally could not sign the contract, so she gave the contract to Pei Zhiwen and asked Pei Zhiwen to sign it on her behalf.

Anyway, Pei Zhiwen signed the novel's publishing house's signature, so it's easier said than done.

When Pei Zhiwen saw the contract, he was very cautious. He even went to the town to find a professional to help check the contract to see if there was anything unreasonable.

After confirming that there were no loopholes or traps, Pei Zhiwen signed for Pei Tiantian and then sent it back to the original address.

At this time, Pei Zhiwen found another letter from the post office. When he saw the name on the letter, Pei Zhiwen's expression instantly became very complicated.

He returned home with a lot on his mind and saw Pei Tiantian chattering to Gu Rong.

Pei Zhiwen asked: "How is Zou Hao's leg recently?"

Pei Tiantian turned around and said, "Master said that my uncle needs at least a year of acupuncture treatment to completely eliminate the disease, because his leg injury is quite serious."

Pei Zhiwen smiled with satisfaction: "It's fine as long as it can be cured. Tiantian, you must remember to supervise your uncle more."

Pei Tiantian patted her chest and said, "I know. Leave it to me."

She had already made plans. Not only would she supervise Zou Hao to drink his medicine every day, she would also have to regularly replace the water in the Zou family's water tank with spiritual spring water, so that Zou Hao could recover faster.

Pei Zhiwen looked at the smug smile on Pei Tiantian's little face, unconsciously touched the letter in his pocket, and his heart became heavy again.

Pei Zhiwen walked into the main room and took out the letter after seeing Wang Ruizhen.

"What is this?" Wang Ruizhen took the envelope curiously. When she saw the sender's name, she was stunned.

Because the sender was Pei Zhisheng.

Wang Ruizhen opened the envelope and looked at the letter inside, reading the contents at a glance.

"Mom, I don't know what to do with this letter. What do you think I should do?"

Wang Ruizhen sighed.

Unexpectedly, Pei Zhisheng had not contacted them for several years, but this time he sent a letter to tell the Pei family that he wanted to bring his wife and daughter back to visit them.

Wang Ruizhen didn't understand why Pei Zhisheng suddenly wanted to come back and recognize his relatives.

It was obvious that we had an attitude of never seeing each other again.

What is Pei Zhisheng planning?

Moreover, in Pei Zhisheng's letters, every word was praising how smart and cute his little daughter Pei Siqi was, but there was no mention of Pei Tiantian's existence.

This made Wang Ruizhen feel a little upset.

"Mom, what do you think we should do? Once Zhisheng and his family come back, we won't be able to keep it a secret anymore."

Pei Zhiwen said.

They told others that Pei Zhisheng was working outside to earn money. If Pei Zhisheng came back with a new wife and a child, how would the villagers view Pei Tiantian?

Wang Ruizhen gritted her teeth and said, "What else can we do? If they really want to come back, we can't stop them. Anyway, I don't plan to recognize them. I don't want to recognize the woman Pei Zhisheng married, including the child. I only have Zou Min as my daughter-in-law, and Tiantian as my granddaughter!"

After hearing this, Pei Zhiwen deeply agreed with Wang Ruizhen's decisiveness.

If Pei Zhisheng and his family came back and Wang Ruizhen easily accepted them, the most embarrassed person at that time would be Pei Tiantian.

For the sake of her most beloved granddaughter, Wang Ruizhen would never do this.

Pei Zhiwen: "Mom, since you don't admit it, then I won't admit it either. I'm going to tell Zhiqiang and Cuilan right now and let them know about it."
