Chapter 355 Have we met somewhere before?



Lu Baiwei stared at the house number outside the bronze gate in a daze. The door of the house was closed, and the stone lions standing at the door stood firm in the wind and rain, showing the former glory of the owner of the house.

It's no wonder that Lu Baiwei stared at the gate of the house and couldn't move. It was because she was too familiar with the house number.

It was just a coincidence that when she followed Gu Chuanbai to see a patient, she ended up at the door of the house that her mother-in-law Ye Xiangling had given her.

This is the house that she and He Ting don’t intend to own.

It was a quiet place in a bustling city. Turning from the noisy street, she arrived at where she was standing now. Next to her was the sparkling Shichahai Lake, with pleasant scenery. The house was also on the edge of the imperial city, and the location was first-rate.

Lu Baiwei stared at the house number and once again lamented that she had such a generous mother-in-law.

This house is now worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands. By the 21st century, the value of the house will increase many times, at least hundreds of millions or even billions.

Even if she doesn't run a business now, she can live comfortably in the future just by relying on this house.

It can be said that by marrying He Ting, she won at the starting line.

But people have to make choices, she can't keep this house yet.

Only she knows how it feels to be just one step away from becoming extremely wealthy but have to give up.

Lu Baiwei stopped and stared at the door of the house. Gu Chuanbai thought she had recognized the wrong house number.

"Student Lu Baiwei, we are not going here. This house has been empty for a long time. It's the one next door. Come with me."

On the way here, Gu Chuanbai mentioned where they were going this time.

He thought Lu Baiwei had heard it wrong, so she, who was walking in front, turned back to remind him.

Lu Baiwei said, "I saw that the gate was made of heavy materials and the stone lions at the gate were beautifully carved, so I couldn't help but take a few more glances."

"By the way, why is such a beautiful house uninhabited?"

"I heard from Sister Yu Lan that this used to be the ancestral home of the Ye family in Beijing. The Ye family got into trouble and went to Hong Kong, so this house was taken over by the street office. I don't know why it wasn't rented out or someone else moved in."

Gu Chuanbai guessed: "But the people living on this street are not simple. Sister Yu Lan lives next door. I guess if the street office rents out the house to mixed people, it will affect the people living on this street."

"So no one has moved into the house yet."

"The policy has changed now. Many people who went to the countryside have returned to the city, and some who left the city have returned to Beijing. When the Ye family comes back, I think they will ask the street office to take back this house."

Lu Baiwei had heard about the street office returning the property.

The shop next to Shiweiji is a case of historical property rights issue, so Shen Junqian asked Sister Li about the situation and decided not to let Shiweiji expand. Instead, he planned to pick a good location in Wangfujing to open a branch.

Lu Baiwei asked Gu Chuanbai: "If the Ye family you mentioned never comes back to the street office to get back the property rights of the house, then who will this house belong to in the end?"

"That's hard to say. If we can't contact the Ye family, then the house will be unclaimed and will eventually become collective property!"

"Of course, this is just my guess."

Gu Chuanbai stood at the door of the house and talked to Lu Baiwei for a while, then raised his wrist to check the time on his watch.

"It's time for Sister Yulan and I to meet. Let's go over and knock on the door. It's next door, just a few steps away."

Gu Chuanbai explained: "Sister Yulan was my former neighbor. Her husband was seriously injured in a plane crash when he was young and had symptoms of traumatic stress. Our Jishidiang happened to have experience in treating this disease, so I have been prescribing medicine and consulting for him."

"Every profession has its own specialties. I am not good at bone setting and massage to treat injuries such as lumbar spine injuries."

"I discussed his problem with you last time, and Yu Lan and I recommended you."

Those who can live in Shichahai and have their own house are either rich or noble. Gu Chuanbai is still worried that Lu Baiwei will feel pressured.

Before knocking on the door, he told Lu Baiwei: "Don't feel any psychological pressure when you meet Sister Yu Lan and her husband. Think of it this way. You and I are both doctors, and patients have to listen to doctors."

"No matter what the other person's status is, in the eyes of our doctors, he is just a patient."

There is no need to give her a vaccination, after all, she is the one who treated the old comrade.

No matter how prominent Gu Chuanbai, sister Yu Lan's husband, is, he can never be as good as the old comrade who is highly respected and will make great contributions to economic development, right?

So Lu Baiwei had no pressure at all.

Knowing that Gu Chuanbai meant well, she nodded to show that she understood.

Gu Chuanbai knocked on the door of the house in front.

"Who is it?"

A careless voice came from the room.

Then a gentle voice responded: "Aunt Miao, please stop shouting and disturb Yuanze from reading books or newspapers."

"It should be Chuanbai. I asked him to come to my house today to see Yuanze and prescribe medicine. I also asked his students to come and check Yuanze's old lumbar injury."

"I heard that he has inherited the bone-setting skills from his ancestors. There is only a glimmer of hope, and I can't give up on Yuanze."

The gentle voice fell, and the gruff voice inside responded happily.

"That's great. When Yuanze recovers from his back injury, you can have a baby with him as soon as possible."

"You two have been married for so many years and you are already grown up. I am looking forward to holding your baby day and night."

There was a sound of clearing a throat from inside the room. The cough seemed to be a reminder of something, and then there was no sound from inside.

After a while, footsteps were heard and a slightly plump woman in her forties came to open the door.

"Doctor Gu, you are here."

She looked at Lu Baiwei: "You are the student of the ancestral bone-setting technique you told Yu Lan about, right?"

"yes!"

Gu Chuanbai nodded and stepped over the threshold with Lu Baiwei.

Lu Baiwei was in the yard and soon saw a woman watering plants with a pot at the foot of the wall.

She looked very thin, gentle and soft, as if she was living a peaceful life. While watering the flower beds, she smiled gently from time to time and looked at the man reading a newspaper in the pavilion.

Lu Baiwei followed her gaze, but couldn't see the man's face clearly because it was blocked by the newspaper.

Then, when she heard the sound of Lu Baiwei and Gu Chuanbai crossing the threshold, the woman who was smiling at the man finally turned her head away.

However, the moment she saw Lu Baiwei clearly, she was obviously stunned for a moment.

As if she was absent-minded for a moment, she quickly restrained her expression and returned to her gentle and peaceful appearance.

"Chuanbai, is this the student you mentioned? The one who inherited the bone-setting skills?"

"Just like Chuanbai, just call me Sister Yulan."

She smiled gently at Lu Baiwei and called out to the man who was reading the newspaper: "Yuanze, Chuanbai has brought people here. You can't hide your illness and avoid seeing a doctor."

At this time, the man who was reading the newspaper finally put it down.

When he saw Lu Baiwei and Gu Chuanbai, he stared at Lu Baiwei in shock.

Gu Chuanbai was very confused: "Brother-in-law, do you know Mr. Lu?"

"Oh, her last name is Lu too?"

Putting the newspaper on the stone table, Lu Yuanze stood up and asked: "Have we met somewhere before?"
