Chapter 537 A Phone Call
"Thank you, Mom. I am so lucky to be born in your belly."
"You're just being nagging. Just remember one thing: life is supreme. You have to keep your life to take care of me and your grandma, and of course your dad."
"I promise!"
Li Ming saluted Cheng Qiao. He had long known that his parents were different from other people's parents. They had secrets that ordinary people could not have.
As their son, how could he spend his entire life running a grocery store and a wholesale market? If he could leave a mark in the long river of history, that would be the greatest meaning of his life.
"Li Ming, you have been the most mischievous since you were little, but mom knows that you are the kindest one in your heart among all the children. Mom only asks you to do one thing, protect yourself."
"Thank you, Mom. I will remember your words. I will come back with good news when I get military merit."
"You must protect yourself. You must be familiar with those medicines. Some are poisons to deal with enemies, and some are secret medicines to save lives. Although you don't like studying medicine, you still have basic identification skills."
Li Ming opened his arms and gently hugged Cheng Qiao:
"A loving mother sews clothes for her son. She sews them tightly before he leaves, fearing that he will come back late. Who says that a son's love can repay his parents' kindness? Mother, I haven't left yet, but you have already given me so many instructions. You make me feel sad."
"You kid, isn't mom worried about you? Okay, mom won't say anything more. When will you report?"
"We will leave after the school issues high school diplomas. Mom and grandma..."
"I will bring your grandma to Liangzhou."
"Then Li Cheng..."
Li Cheng has been staying by Li Ming's side since he started school. He treats Li Ming as his own brother and tells him everything.
Moreover, Li Cheng took Li Ming as his role model and worked hard in studying, managing the grocery store, and taking care of his grandmother.
"I can't make the decision on this, I have to wait for his parents to decide. If he is willing to go with me, I will certainly take care of him."
"I'll go find him."
Li Ming called Li Cheng in a hurry. Li Cheng's eyes were red. He had followed Li Ming for so many years and was really reluctant to part with him.
"Li Cheng, let me ask you, do you want to go home or go to Liangzhou with my mother and grandmother?"
"Brother Li Ming, I don't want to go home, and I don't want to go to Liangzhou. Can I stay here? I won't eat and live for free. I will help you look after the grocery store and wait for you to come home."
"But can you do it alone?"
"I…"
"Ming'er, grandma will stay too. Your mother has to work and take care of your brother. There are so many things to do at home. Cheng'er, leave it to me."
"Mom, you..."
"Qiao, it's okay. Bingzai brings his little girl to see me every week. It would be bad if I left. Just let me stay here. I feel at ease."
Cheng Qiao nodded silently. She was indeed very busy in Liangzhou, even though she had Cuihua and her husband to help on the family farm, Qian Longxin to manage the beauty salon, and Chen Ying to support the health center.
But she had to do some work herself, such as setting up a laboratory to study the pills in the space.
In any case, if those pills in the space are to be shown to the public, there must be a legitimate reason. Also, Cheng Li is going abroad, and she has to visit Cheng Liguo from time to time.
Cheng Qiao stayed in Chuncheng for a week and prepared sufficient supplies for Li Ming and Xiaogui. When she saw them being picked up, she reluctantly said goodbye to Li's mother and returned to Liangzhou with Ye Jing.
The days that followed were busy and fulfilling. Cheng Qiao either threw herself into the laboratory to conduct experiments or went to the Qilian Mountains with Han Tong to collect herbs.
Gradually, daily versions of elixirs have been released one after another, such as anesthetic powder. Zhu Qingde had no idea that the current anesthetic powder was no longer produced by the space.
When Han Tong's health-preserving pills were used up, Cheng Qiao gave her another bottle. Seeing Han Tong eat them without any objection, she knew that the daily version of the health-preserving pills had also been successfully developed.
But no matter how things change, the most important thing in the elixir is the spiritual water in the space. For this reason, Cheng Qiao and Han Tong went to Qilian Mountain to dig an artificial spiritual spring, and transferred the river water in her space to this artificial spiritual spring.
This matter was kept secret, and apart from Ye Jun and Ye Jing, only Han Tong knew about it. But they were all very happy because they no longer had to be so secretive when making medicines.
Ever since being taught a lesson by Han Tong, Haidongqing would hide whenever it saw Han Tong, and even tried its best to hide in Chengqiao's space. It found that only this place was the safest.
Cheng Qiao put the Saker Falcon into the space with a smile. Han Tong pretended not to see it, but he was very happy in his heart. Let you be so cool, just stay away from me when you see me next time.
But Han Tong never expected that she was urgently summoned away that night. Mai Sui became ill and wanted to meet Han Tong.
Cheng Qiao immediately took out all the pills, including the Qilin Resurrection Pill. This child was her adopted daughter, and she must save her if possible.
Han Tong has been gone for two months, and Cheng Qiao still lives her life at her own pace. Whenever Ye Jing has no classes, he always follows Cheng Qiao to study.
He also caught a lot of rabbits to practice, and slowly, the scalpel in his hand became like a sword with a soul, and he moved steadily, accurately and ruthlessly.
Cheng Qiao was satisfied with Ye Jing's rapid progress. Zhu Qingde and Shen Sanleng even treated him as their own student and apprentice and taught him with all their heart.
The annex building of the health center has been completed, and they are about to start a new round of recruitment activities. As long as the medical students have high medical ethics, they will admit them.
The level can be improved slowly, but poor medical ethics will affect the reputation of the entire health center. Cheng Qiao was looking through the resume of an applicant when the phone on the table rang.
"Cheng Qiao, I'm Yuan Guangming, please come here soon, otherwise I'm afraid your father will die."
Cheng Qiao was stunned for a moment. She had just returned from Cheng Liguo's place last month and everything was normal. But now was not the time for her to think too much, so she immediately called Qin Daqiang to borrow a car.
Qin Daqiang agreed immediately and even asked Qin Guoqing to drive Cheng Qiao there. Anyway, a day would be enough for the round trip, so at worst he could just ask Guoqing to go and pick someone up.
