Chapter 881 Looks like the god in the painting
"Hey!" Sister Chunying suddenly became anxious and stamped her feet, saying, "When has Wang Xian'er ever followed the rules since she was a child?"
She tiptoed and whispered in Song Yanxi's ear, "Little Doctor Song, you don't know that our village head has a relative who works in the capital. No one in the surrounding area dares to offend him."
As she was speaking, the village head, whom she said no one dared to provoke, strode into the yard.
The moment he saw Xi Lin, a smile immediately spread across his face. He bowed and saluted him, saying, "Divine Doctor Xi, I've long heard of your great name."
Xi Lin raised his chin slightly, his attitude cold, "Who are you, and how do you know the name of this miracle doctor?"
Lizheng Wang immediately said, "The name of Divine Doctor Xi has long been known throughout Da'an. From sixty-year-olds to three-year-old babies, there is no one who has not heard of your deeds."
Listening to his flattery, Xi Lin's expression softened slightly. "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
“This…” Li Zheng Wang looked at Chunying and said with a smile, “Wife Shuanzi, our family is having a wedding today, and we would like to invite Divine Doctor Xi to come over for a drink.
How about you take your mother-in-law and Dongliang over for a meal?"
Chunying quickly shook her head and said sensibly, "Uncle, you and Doctor Xi should go over and have dinner quickly. We won't cause any more trouble."
"Hey, how can you add to the chaos?"
Lizheng Wang smiled kindly, "Xian'er's wedding is a big happy event for our village. If it hadn't rained so hard yesterday and the matter hadn't been done so hastily, we should have invited everyone in the village to the wedding banquet.
But it doesn't matter, after today's ceremony is over, I'll pick a good day to hold the banquet later."
Hearing this, Chunying hurriedly praised: "Otherwise, everyone in the surrounding area would praise Sister Xian'er for her good fortune and good birth.
When Shuanzi and I got married, we just set up two tables and it wasn't lively at all."
Hearing her mention the deceased, Wang Lizheng's smile froze. He forced himself to keep it together and said, "Let me put it this way for now. When the main banquet is in a few days, you three must remember to attend."
Chunying nodded quickly, having already cursed his ancestors for eighteen generations in her heart.
How could they, who had no relatives and could not afford any decent gift money, have the nerve to go to the main banquet at the headman's house?
Wang Lizheng was just saying that, he had no intention of actually having his lover go there.
After he finished his polite greetings, he looked at Xi Lin and made a gesture of invitation with a smile on his face.
Xi Lin glanced back and said calmly, "No hurry, my junior sister is still boiling the medicine."
Upon hearing that he actually had a junior sister, Wang Lizheng stretched his neck to look inside, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
There are such beautiful girls in this world.
He swallowed his original intention to take Xi Lin there first, and said with a kind smile: "It's okay, then wait for this girl to boil the medicine, there's no rush."
Not missing the glint in his eyes, Xi Lin suppressed his disgust and asked coldly, "Junior Sister, how much longer will it take?"
As he spoke, he suddenly seemed to think of something and said, "Today is Miss Wang's wedding day after all. We are not related brothers or sisters, so I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to have the audacity to go over for dinner.
I appreciate the village head's kindness and will skip the meal."
Upon hearing this, Wang Lizheng immediately became anxious and hurriedly said, "What Divine Doctor Xi said is true. Anyone coming from afar is a guest, not to mention that you two are doctors who treat illnesses and save lives.
Treat yourself like you're at home here, so don't be polite to me."
Xi Lin shook his head, "Not appropriate."
He said seriously, "My father once told me that when I'm out, I must not take advantage of others, and I must not trouble others easily."
Facing Wang Lizheng's anxious eyes, he said quietly, "After all, gold and silver are limited, and favors are hard to repay."
"Crack!" Song Yanxi couldn't help but break the branch in her hand.
She was afraid that she would not be able to hold back her laughter.
If Old Master Xi knew that his bastard son was doing things like this in public under his name, he would probably send someone to tie him up and take him back immediately.
Seeing Xi Lin's tough attitude, Wang Lizheng was sweating anxiously. He quickly looked at Chunying and said, "Sister-in-law, you invited Divine Doctor Xi back. Please help your uncle speak up."
Chunying laughed dryly and said, "Uncle, look at what you said. How can I be so honored as to invite a miracle doctor?
They were traveling around as doctors and happened to be passing by us. Seeing the pity of us orphans and widows, they offered their help."
When Wang Lizheng heard this, he became even more anxious.
He paced on the spot, muttering, "What should I do? I can't let my daughter marry a mute."
Song Yanxi's fingers gripping the branch slowly tightened.
What does he mean by "mute"?
Not only her, Xi Lin's heart also skipped a beat when he heard this.
Did you hurt your throat when you were in the river?
Chunying glanced at Song Yanxi in the kitchen and deliberately asked, "Uncle, what's going on? Didn't they say that the young man Xian'er picked up was good in every way?"
"He's a nice guy, tall and strong, and looks like the god in the painting."
Lizheng Wang sighed as he spoke, "I won't hide it from you, that young man hasn't said a word since he opened his eyes this morning.
The wedding is about to begin, and Xian'er's uncles and aunts have all been invited. As a father, I can't really watch my daughter marry a mute, right? "
Chunying said quickly, "That's definitely not possible. Xian'er is so beautiful. You only have one daughter, how can you really give her to a mute?"
Wang Lizheng was already feeling very uncomfortable, and when he heard her say that, he sighed even more.
He turned his head and saw that there was no one on the road, so he said with embarrassment: "His sister-in-law, you know what kind of temper Xian'er has.
She had taken a fancy to that young man and insisted on marrying him, even saying she would die if I didn't agree."
He was in his forties, and his eyes were red as he spoke. "I really had no choice. I heard Dongliang shouting everywhere that two swindlers had come to your house... and two doctors had come, so I hurried over."
Chunying also looked worried, "Uncle, look at what happened.
Otherwise, I'll go over and try to persuade Sister Xian'er to be more open-minded."
She didn't dare to say it directly, but what she was thinking in her heart was that Wang Xian'er was shameless.
She would pick up a man from outside and force him to marry her without even asking whether he had a wife.
This is why Doctor Song came to see us just in time, and they hadn't had their wedding night yet, otherwise who knows what would have happened.
Wang Lizheng shook his head and said helplessly, "It's no use. I've said everything I can to her this morning, but she's determined to marry him."
He looked up at Xi Lin with a wry smile on his face, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Divine Doctor Xi, but my wife and I only have this one daughter. Even if she wants my life, I have to give it to her."
Chunying was about to persuade her when she heard Song Yanxi say, "Sister-in-law Chunying, the medicine is ready."
Wang Lizheng hurriedly said, "You two are always curing illnesses and saving lives. It doesn't matter who you save."
