After hearing what his sister said, He Chaoyang closed his eyes resignedly.
Do whatever you want with me. I only have this capital of over 100 kilograms. You can do whatever you want with me.
Sima Nianfang stared at Zhang Xudong with sharp eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Liu Haisheng seemed to have found a backbone and knew who to listen to.
Zhang Xudong was unwilling and complained, "Jing girl, a forced melon is not sweet, and a forced business is not a good deal.
As doctors, we need patients to be willing to treat us..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by He Jingxian:
"Zhang Xudong, where do you get all that nonsense from? Just treat him. Whether he dies or becomes disabled... I'll take responsibility."
After taking a look at Dr. Sima, He Jingxian changed the word "aunt" to "girl".
Zhang Xudong stopped talking and asked Liu Haisheng to help He Chaoyang sit up.
He took out the needle box from his bag and wiped the silver needle with the alcohol cotton ball inside.
With a swish of his hand, he injected ten needles into He Chaoyang's head.
It was originally supposed to be four injections, but because He Chaoyang was his future brother-in-law, he was given six.
Assuming one shot costs five dollars, and he gave me thirty more as soon as we met, this gift is not small.
What he didn't realize was that when he was giving him acupuncture, Sima Nianfang looked at him more kindly.
Zhang Xudong would move the silver needle aside after a while, causing it to keep trembling.
It was almost twenty minutes later that he pulled out the ten silver needles, sweating profusely, and said weakly, "Jing girl, it's okay. Your brother won't be stupid anymore."
He Jingxian wiped the sweat off Zhang Xudong's forehead distressedly and said:
"Since my brother is fine, let's just leave him alone. You take a rest first, we'll talk later."
After Liu Haisheng let He Chaoyang lie down, he went out. He felt that the air outside was better and he felt a little uncomfortable in this room.
After Liu Haisheng left, He Jingxian asked, "Brother Dong, are you wearing the jade pendant your mother left for you? Take it out and let Sister Fang see it."
As he said this, he winked at Zhang Xudong.
Zhang Xudong was a little confused, but he pretended to take out the phoenix-shaped jade pendant from his underwear pocket and handed it to He Jingxian.
When Sima Nianfang saw the jade pendant Zhang Xudong took out, her eyes turned red and drops of crystal tears fell from her beautiful eyes.
When Zhang Xudong saw this, his heart suddenly tightened, as if something had hurt him.
Sima Nianfang controlled his emotions and did not take the jade pendant handed to him by He Jingxian.
Instead, he took off a jade pendant from his neck and handed it directly to Zhang Xudong.
Zhang Xudong had a guess, so he didn't care that it was something a girl would carry on her body, and stretched out his hands to take it.
He lowered his head to take a closer look at the jade pendant, which was a dragon-shaped jade pendant carved from jadeite.
Although the material and pattern are different from those of his mother, the carving technique is the same, so it should be made by the same person.
Zhang Xudong turned it over and saw four words engraved on the back: Sima Hongyan.
Zhang Xudong looked at the jade pendant in his hand and murmured to himself: "Uncle, this is my uncle's name. Sima Nianfang, Sima Nianfang."
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head, looked at Sima Nianfang and asked anxiously:
"You are my uncle's daughter, right? My uncle always missed my mother, so he named you Sima Nianfang?"
Sima Nianfang on the opposite side was already crying profusely. She just kept nodding her head and couldn't utter a word.
At this moment, her disguised strength collapsed, and she finally had a place to vent all the grievances in her heart.
He Jingxian returned the jade pendant to Zhang Xudong and hugged Sima Nianfang, constantly comforting her.
After Sima Nianfang calmed down a little, she told Zhang Xudong what happened after they went out.
It turned out that He Jingxian had a familiar feeling when she met Sima Nianfang.
When they got outside, He Jingxian looked at Sima Nianfang and Zhang Xudong's similar eyes, and then she understood why she had that feeling.
So she asked about Sima Nianfang's family situation.
Sima Nianfang thought she was asking for He Chaoyang, so she didn't hide anything and told him everything about herself.
Anyway, my ancestors are all recorded clearly in my own files, so there is nothing to hide.
As for what other people's attitude will be after they know my family background, I'll just leave it to fate. I'm almost numb to it.
She said her ancestors were from Wanping and her grandfather used to run a grain store and a grocery store.
Although my grandparents were killed by the Japanese and all their property was lost, my family was still classified as petty bourgeoisie.
After that, she stopped talking. Because she knew that He Jingxian should understand what such an identity meant. Let them choose.
He Jingxian felt that Sima Nianfang's life experience was somewhat similar to Zhang Xudong's, so she asked her father's name.
Sima Nianfang said that her father's name was Sima Hongyan, and she also had an uncle and aunt whom she had never met.
My uncle’s name is Sima Langyue and my aunt’s name is Sima Fanghua.
He Jingxian jumped up with joy upon hearing this and took out the jade pendant Sima Fanghua left for her to show to Sima Nianfang.
Sima Nianfang burst into tears after seeing her aunt's name.
He Jingxian told her about Zhang Xudong's identity and that they were engaged.
The two girls explained their relationship in detail, and that's how the brother and sister came to recognize each other as relatives.
Sima Nianfang had calmed down a lot after He Jingxian told him what had happened.
She looked at Zhang Xudong expectantly and said:
"Little brother, I am your cousin. Where is your aunt? Where is she? My father often talked about her when I was little.
He said that after driving the Japanese away, he would definitely bring my aunt back to Wanping.
She also said that the unreliable uncle wouldn't stay with her forever, and who knows where he might have gone.
Zhang Xudong lowered his head after hearing what his cousin said. Wiping away his tears, he recounted how his mother died.
After hearing this, Sima Nianfang felt sorry for the aunt whom he had never met.
She had never imagined that her aunt, who had always been described by her father as delicate and weak, could actually be so strong-willed. It seemed that her temperament had taken over from her aunt.
Zhang Xudong calmed down and asked, "Sister, have you returned to Wanping now? How is my uncle now? Why hasn't he come to see mother?"
Sima Nianfang smiled bitterly and said, "My father and aunt should have died one after the other.
The brother and sister left decisively, but they didn't think about whether we, their children, could survive without them."
Then Sima Nianfang told Zhang Xudong about his father's later experiences and how hard his mother struggled to survive with him and his younger brother.
After hearing these words, Zhang Xudong was so angry that he almost bit his teeth off.
