Chapter 129 Daily Life 1
At lunchtime, Lin Yi'an planned to treat his mentor to lunch, but the secretary of an important patient picked him up.
After her master left, Lin Yi'an, carrying a stack of documents, hadn't even left the hospital when she received a call from Zhou Mingshi.
Zhou Mingshi asked her how she planned to have lunch, and Lin Yi'an said, "I was originally planning to invite my master to lunch, but he has a patient, so I'm going home to eat."
Zhou Mingshi: "Are you still working this afternoon?"
Lin Yi'an: "No need."
Zhou Mingshi: "Shall I come pick you up?"
Lin Yi'an: "No need, I'll be home in a little while by car."
Zhou Mingshi: "I'm waiting for you at home."
Lin Yi'an: "Okay."
As they walked down to the hospital building and were about to head towards the parking lot, Yuan Xin stepped out from the side: "Lin Yi'an!"
Lin Yi'an turned around: "Is something the matter?"
Yuan Xin looked at her and asked, "Lin Yi'an, why are you so lucky? Or is it because you're the daughter of the Lin family that he took you as his apprentice?"
Lin Yi'an glanced at her: "Ask yourself honestly, do you really think you're good at traditional Chinese medicine? If you were really that good, you wouldn't be unemployed right now."
Yuan Xin clenched her fists, glaring at her resentfully: "I just haven't found the right company yet. Do you think everyone is like you, the Lin family's daughter, who can open a traditional Chinese medicine clinic and have their family invest in it? You have no idea how difficult it is for ordinary people to succeed..."
Lin Yi-an: "You don't think that all the doctors who can open clinics are rich kids, do you? It's just an excuse for not being able to work hard and not wanting to put in the effort to learn."
After saying that, he ignored her. If she really had the ability, she could have opened a clinic at home like her grandmother and still make a living.
I walked into the parking lot, got into the driver's seat, started the car, and went home.
Yuan Xin watched her car drive onto the road, scoffed, and said, "What do you mean by not being willing to work hard and endure hardship? The money for her car is more than an average person could earn in a lifetime. What's the point of working hard and enduring hardship?"
When Lin Yi'an returned home, she heard her mother-in-law and Zhou Mingshi talking about setting up a clinic and pharmacy for her. She laughed and said, "There's no need to set up a pharmacy in every place; we don't have that many medicinal herbs..."
Tan Qingwen: "I'll put some tools in here. You can put whatever you want in there. Just be prepared, it's better to be safe than sorry."
After she said that, Lin Yi'an didn't stop her anymore.
When Wang Yuehua heard that her mother-in-law was ill, she wanted to come and visit her, but Lin Yi'an stopped her, telling her to wait until her mother-in-law was feeling a little better before visiting. Wang Yuehua listened to her daughter and planned to wait until she was feeling better before visiting.
Since her son and daughter-in-law moved in with her, Tan Qingwen has been in a better mood than ever before. She is happy with everything she sees, eats and sleeps well every day, and her body naturally recovers quickly.
At the Zhou family's old house, Zhou Kanghui couldn't help but wonder, "Are they that busy? Why haven't they come back to stay for so long?" His son and daughter-in-law hadn't returned for two weeks.
Yu Minhua said, "Qingwen is sick, so they went to stay with her for a while."
Zhou Kanghui: "He's in his fifties and gets sick all the time. His health is really bad."
Yu Minhua rolled her eyes at him: "She has such a big company to manage, she's busy every day, and she hasn't taken good care of herself. Do you think everyone is like you, eating, drinking and having fun all day long?"
Zhou Kanghui chuckled twice.
Yu Minhua: "You absolutely mustn't say that in front of Mingshi, or he'll definitely give you a piece of his mind."
Zhou Kanghui: "Mingshi has always protected his mother since he was a child. If I say a bad word about his mother, he will be unhappy. I'm not really stupid, so why would I provoke him at this time?"
Yu Minhua: "It's good that you know."
As July arrived and the weather became unbearably hot, Gu Boyuan's son, daughter-in-law, and daughter learned that Tan Qingwen was ill and wanted to visit her, but Gu Boyuan stopped them.
Now that Tan Qingwen has been recuperating for more than a month and is in much better spirits, they finally brought gifts to his door.
As soon as Gu Tingyu and her brother and sister-in-law walked in, they found that the house had changed a lot. There were many more things, making it much warmer and more homely. The room was filled with the smell of Chinese medicine. Lin Yi'an was a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, and she was not surprised to hear that Aunt Tan had been treated by her during her illness.
Lin Yi'an invited them to sit down and asked the housekeeper to pour them tea.
Gu Tingyu felt a little strange seeing her treat them like a hostess, but she didn't say anything.
Tan Qingwen rested in the garden. Lin Yi'an sat for a while and then said to them, "I'm going to the kitchen to arrange the menu for tonight. You two sit down."
The three responded.
Gu Xiangming's wife, Wu Jingjing, couldn't help but say, "It seems we're the only guests."
When Zhou Mingshi and Lin Yi'an came over, they left after eating, just like everyone else, and she didn't feel anything about it.
When Lin Yi'an sat there to entertain them during this visit, she realized that everyone else could be the host whenever they wanted, but they were always the guests.
Gu Xiangming said, "We are guests, do you expect to act as hosts here? You should give up that idea as soon as possible."
It's best not to covet what doesn't belong to them, or you'll only make yourself look repulsive.
Wu Jingjing rolled her eyes at him: "I didn't say that. This is Aunt Tan's house, not our dad's house. What kind of owner am I?"
She was just making a comment. Aunt Tan is a big boss. She's not stupid; on the contrary, she's very shrewd. Even though she's been with her father-in-law for many years, she hasn't given him a formal title because she's afraid that people like them will have ideas.
However, if they really get married, money can be a powerful motivator, and she can't guarantee she won't have any thoughts about it.
Gu Tingyu didn't speak, but looked around at the furnishings in the room. They were all things that young girls liked, which showed that Aunt Tan must really like Lin Yi'an as her daughter-in-law.
Actually, all of these were arranged by Zhou Mingshi according to Lin Yi'an's preferences. After Tan Qingwen fell ill, the young couple didn't let her worry about anything at home, except that Lin Yi'an arranged what they ate every day.
At 6:30, Zhou Mingshi returned home from get off work, carrying two bouquets of flowers in his arms.
Lin Yi'an smiled and said, "What made you suddenly decide to buy flowers?"
Zhou Mingshi smiled and handed the flowers to the housekeeper, then stretched out his arms: "Give me a hug."
Lin Yi'an smiled and hugged him. After the hug, she said, "On the way back, I ran into the florist restocking. He had just picked some fresh flowers, so I bought two bouquets for the two ladies in my family."
Lin Yi'an: "It looks good."
Tan Qingwen was taking a walk outside when he returned and heard their conversation. He laughed and said, "There's one for me too?"
Zhou Mingshi raised an eyebrow: "How could you be left out?"
Tan Qingwen looked at them and said, "They are indeed fresh." He then instructed the aunt to arrange the flowers and place them in their respective rooms.
The three members of the Gu family sat to the side watching, feeling somewhat moved. The two bosses of such a large company still lived such a life full of rituals. Was this the reason for their success? They couldn't understand it.
