Chapter 887 Something Happened at the Chinese Medicine Shop
It’s not that Zhou Guotao is stingy and hides Bian Zhi.
It’s really that Mr. Qin’s illness is too serious.
Not to mention going out, he couldn't even climb the stairs. An elevator was installed in his home, and all kinds of rescue equipment were piled up in the house. In addition, there was an emergency doctor on duty at home 24 hours a day. These expenses alone cost more than five million yuan a day.
People outside said that Mr. Qin was using the money to prolong his life.
But there are times when it cannot be continued. This year, Mr. Qin’s expert doctors said that Mr. Qin would not survive this year.
Zhou Guotao couldn't pass this hot potato to his family.
"Don't worry... I... know your concerns, but... this, ahem... isn't it about taking the lead? Don't worry, your... daughter-in-law can't be blamed. How about... how about I write you a life-or-death letter?"
Mr. Qin spoke for nearly five minutes, and his face turned pale when he finished.
Zhou Guotao felt that if he continued talking, he would die from suffocation.
The family doctor also felt something was wrong and hurried over to give Mr. Qin oxygen.
When they were about to carry the person to the hospital, Old Master Qin waved his hand.
"No, I won't go. If I go, I'll just die in the hospital. Guo Tao, we've known each other for years, right?"
Zhou Guotao knows -
Finished.
This is playing the emotional card.
Zhou Guotao nodded, "Yes, more than 20 years."
"I remember that year, when your Zhou family encountered problems, everyone thought it was difficult to handle and refused to help. I also thought it was difficult at the time. For the Zhou family, I offended the richest man in the country at the time. But later, I still helped and contributed a lot. Do you still remember?"
With the oxygen machine, Mr. Qin spoke more fluently.
At this point, Zhou Guotao knew that he must ask Bian Zhi to come over.
"I don't expect anything in return from you, but I just wanted to make friends with your Zhou family. I didn't expect that we would be friends for twenty years. I also feel that I don't have much time left, and I don't want to see other people. But every time you come, I am happy. I really like chatting with you and treat you as my own junior.
Of course, I have selfish motives. I have heard about your daughter-in-law. I know that her father, Huo Wuzun's father, Mr. Huo, was saved by her. So every time you come, I wait for you to mention this matter, but you never mention it. I have no choice but to say it myself.
Guo Tao, I'm not afraid. I'm so old, and I'm suffering from illness. I want to be free every day, but I can't. You know my family's situation. If I don't help Qin Chuli, he will be severely punished by Qin Yingwu's secretary. I will be too embarrassed to face my ancestors.
"Guo Tao, just this once, and I won't even mention prescribing medicine. If your daughter-in-law feels there's really no hope, I'll give up, okay? One more day of life means one more day of protection for my grandson. If you don't do this for my sake, then for the sake of that child who's been crying eight times in three days, don't let him suffer too much in the future, okay?"
This is a summary of their previous affection and the incident of his little granddaughter bullying others.
How can Zhou Guotao say "no"?
Gnashing his teeth, he said, "Okay, tonight, I'll ask her to come over and take a look at you. However, her skills are really mediocre. She didn't treat my previous inflammation, so it's really that outsiders are praising her too much."
Old Master Qin smiled and said, "Then please come and take a look at it for me."
After spending most of his life in the business world, Mr. Qin's health is not good. Otherwise, the Zhou family would not have been able to sit firmly on the position of the richest family for so many years.
He naturally dealt with Zhou Guotao's remarks casually.
Zhou Guotao came out of Mr. Qin's place in a depressed mood, and ran into Yuan Yining as soon as he went out.
He rolled his eyes at Zhou Guotao and said, "You're getting angry, and I didn't treat you well?" Then who asked eagerly, "Oh, when will I see you again? Do you want to take this medicine for a few more days? I feel much better these days."
Zhou Guotao was speechless. He didn't expect Yuan Yining to come to him.
"What are you doing here?"
"Isn't there an ambulance at the door? Come and take a look."
"Do you really want Zhizhi to go over and take a look?"
Yuan Yining also had concerns. "You need to tell Qin Yingwu about this. Qin Yingwu is a proud man and may not respect Chinese medicine. Although Mr. Qin has been ill, he has always been in control of the Qin family. If anything happens to Mr. Qin, we can't afford to compensate him."
Zhou Guotao nodded, stood in place and called Qin Yingwu. The person on the other end seemed to be in a meeting. He replied, "Okay," and hung up.
I guess he was thinking that there wasn't much time left, so he could do whatever he wanted.
Zhou Guotao originally wanted to ask Qin Yingwu to show up, but the person on the other end of the phone hung up too quickly and didn't seem to care, so he didn't say much.
When Bian Zhi came out of the Chinese medicine hospital, it was already dark outside.
I got home around eleven o'clock.
As the car stopped at the door, two people stood up on the stone bench at the door.
Bian Zhi looked closely, "Aunt Yuan? Uncle Zhou?"
Zhou Guotao rarely comes to see her, so Bian Zhi is quite curious.
She looked at the time and it was almost twelve o'clock.
"What's up?"
When Bian Zhi asked these two words, he found that the lights were still on in the room opposite Qin's house.
She turned her gaze back to Zhou Guotao and Yuan Yining.
Yuan Yining was about to speak when he heard hurried footsteps coming from behind him.
Zhou Suihuai was panting as he stood in front of Bian Zhi, "Something happened in the Chinese medicine shop?" Zhou Suihuai had been busy working on the script for a new play recently. He had just heard the news and came back without stopping.
"Um."
"I heard that the herbal medicine dealer raised the price!"
"Yeah, but it's okay, I can handle it," Bian Zhi responded with a few words, then turned to ask Yuan Yining, "What's the matter?"
Zhou Suihuai: "Hey, why didn't you tell me? I'll handle it."
Bian Zhi didn't even look at Zhou Suihuai, but signaled to Yuan Yining with his eyes.
Zhou Guotao disliked his son's lack of composure and pulled him aside to lecture him, "Can't you see your mother and I are standing here? Besides, first come, first served, understand?"
Zhou Suihuai curled his lips and said, "What could be the problem? Isn't it just that Mr. Qin wants to ask Bian Zhi to come over and take a look?"
Zhou Guotao looked at Zhou Suihuai in surprise, his eyes seemed to say: You actually know?
"How could you not know? You can only pretend. The screech of the ambulance keeps getting louder and louder. Every time Bian Zhi goes out or shows up at the door, Old Man Qin sits in the yard and watches. You've been there a few times, and he's been beating around the bush at first, but he's mentioned it. Not to mention me, even that female bandit Zhou Enyou knows about it. She's been waiting for you to speak up to save face for Old Man Qin."
Zhou Guotao curled his lips and looked at Bian Zhi, "That's what happened."
Yuan Yining grabbed Bian Zhi's hand and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you young people. It's because the Zhou family previously accepted a favor from the Qin family."
"It's Zhou Jiacheng's favor, not Bian Zhi's. You accepted someone else's favor, so why do you ask Bian Zhi to repay it? Is there any reason for this?"
To Zhou Suihuai, these words sounded like he was speaking for Bian Zhi, but they were irritating to the ear.
After Zhou Suihuai finished speaking, he was speechless.
He wanted to make amends but didn't know where to start, so Yuan Yining slapped him hard on the back.
Be honest.
"Zhizhi, just go over there and go through the motions. It's true that Old Master Qin has said this many times. He came to you this time just to give you peace of mind. Don't put any pressure on yourself. The doctor said it's just a matter of time."
Bian Zhi nodded, "Okay."
In the Zhou family, Bian Zhi has always been very easy to talk to.
Besides, the other party is a patient and she is a doctor. The other party trusts her, so it is reasonable for her to visit him.
