Chapter 508 Xu Lin, My Dad is Dead
Old Lu held the Shennong Herbal Classic in his arms and said to Xu Lin in a serious tone:
"Don't worry, I will protect this book and will never let the enemy take advantage of it.
Those who go out on missions will only see pictures and a brief introduction, but they will not be told what the specific uses of the herbs are."
"Well, this book, Shennong's Herbal Classic, is very valuable for research. If possible, it would be best to set up an independent Chinese medicine research institution.
This institute specializes in studying the medicinal herbs in the Shennong Herbal Classic, and may make some exciting discoveries."
Xu Lin's suggestion is also selfish. Traditional Chinese medicine has been suppressed too much in recent years.
If such a department can be established, it will protect some practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine.
On the other hand, it also sends a signal to society that China is not blindly suppressing traditional Chinese medicine, but will also protect it.
As long as they are legitimate practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine, they will be protected.
This is definitely good and exciting news for the traditional Chinese medicine industry which is in the dark.
Most importantly, the success of this department will allow China to pay attention to traditional Chinese medicine earlier, before foreigners take action.
This is to prevent foreigners from registering those treasures first in the future, which would harm the traditional Chinese medicine industry.
Mr. Lu thinks highly of Xu Lin and her suggestions, and immediately said that he would submit the suggestions to his superiors and strive to establish the department.
Xu Lin chatted with Mr. Lu for a while and then left. She had to take the car back to the courtyard.
This time when she returned to China, she cleaned up part of the space and Xu Lin was still very satisfied.
After sending Xu Lin away, Mr. Lu took immediate action. What he said about striving for success was definitely not an empty promise, and he would realize it through action.
After returning to the courtyard, Xu Lin watched the soldiers unload the goods and happily saw them off, then she put her hands on her hips and laughed.
Oh my god, I really made a fortune on this trip.
Xu Lin waved her hand, put the goods into the space warehouse, and let Wu Hui, Diwu Qingxue and Feng Juan out to clean up the yard.
With her hands freed, Xu Lin lay down on the rocking chair to rest, and used her mental power to enter the space to sort the goods.
After putting all the items in different categories, Xu Lin thought of Dao Ye. The transaction date agreed with Dao Ye was not far away.
Xu Lin prepared the goods for the transaction with Dao Ye, and just had to deliver them directly on the day of the transaction. It was another small amount of money.
Xu Lin was feeling very happy when someone knocked on the gate. Xu Lin's mental power immediately swept towards the gate.
Xu Lin was a little stunned when she saw this. She didn't expect that the person who came was Qin Xiufen. Has this woman been staring at her courtyard?
What does she want to do?
Diwu Qingxue came to Xu Lin from the courtyard gate and said, "Master, it's Aunt Qin knocking on the door. Should we hurry away?"
"No, let her in. I want to see what she wants to do."
Xu Lin stretched lazily. She was free anyway and wanted to watch a show.
I wonder how that Phoenix scumbag old man Qin is doing now?
After planning all his life, in the end, there is not even anyone to take care of him by his bedside, and he has a daughter who is so annoying. I guess his life must be pretty miserable.
"Yes, I'll open the door right away."
The fifth clear snow floated towards the courtyard gate. Xu Lin saw it and quickly stretched out her hand to stop it, "No, go do something else. I'm afraid that you will scare her if you show up."
"Yes." Diwu Qingxue smiled embarrassedly. She forgot that she is now Ah Piao.
Xu Lin stood up and walked to the gate of the courtyard, opened the door and looked at Qin Xiufen coldly. Smelling the stench emanating from Qin Xiufen, he couldn't help frowning.
"What are you doing here?"
"I, I have something to discuss with you, can you let me in?"
After Qin Xiufen finished speaking, she adjusted her hair embarrassedly and pulled at her dirty clothes.
Not only Xu Lin disliked this image, but Qin Xiufen herself also disliked it, but she couldn't do anything about it now.
She was at her wits' end and the only person she could think of was Xu Lin. If Xu Lin didn't help her, her life would really be over.
Xu Lin snorted and stepped aside to make way.
"Thank you." Qin Xiufen said thank you softly and then turned sideways into the yard. Looking at Xu Lin's big yard, envy welled up in Qin Xiufen's eyes.
She had lived in such a big and beautiful yard before, what a pity.
Xu Lin did not take Qin Xiufen into the hall, but sat down directly under the pavilion in the courtyard. She did not intend to serve tea to Qin Xiufen, but asked directly:
"What brings you here?"
"Your grandpa."
Qin Xiufen had just started talking when she was interrupted by Xu Lin.
"Qin Xiufen, be careful with your words. I don't have a grandfather."
"This." Qin Xiufen looked at Xu Lin's cold little face. Under the pressure of Xu Lin's strong gaze, she had to lower her head and say:
"Yes, I will pay attention." Qin Xiufen took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then continued:
"Xu Lin, my father is dead."
After telling this shocking news, Qin Xiufen stole a glance at Xu Lin's expression, and when she saw that Xu Lin had no expression on her face, her heart sank to the bottom.
Xu Lin didn't even react to her father's death, so would she still help her?
"Your father is dead. What's the point of telling me? I have severed all ties with your Qin family."
Xu Lin asked with a puzzled look on her face, was it because what she expressed before was not clear enough?
That's not right. Xu Lin thought about the past carefully. She had never had a good attitude towards the Qin family, and severing ties was not just talk.
Their severance of relationship was approved by Heaven.
If it weren't for the approval of Heaven, Xu Lin would have felt it the moment Old Man Qin died.
"He," Qin Xiufen said with red eyes and tears streaming down her cheeks, "He was killed by Chen Hu."
"What?" Xu Lin widened her eyes, unable to believe that Old Man Qin actually died at the hands of Chen Hu.
It's really like Phoenix man against Phoenix man, each one is more ruthless than the other.
One plotted against his wife's family and forced his old wife to death; the other killed his father-in-law and forced his original wife to live a life neither human nor ghost.
It's really retribution for such scum to end up in the same family.
Xu Lin couldn't help but say, "Chen Hu is the retribution for your Qin family."
Qin Xiufen was choked and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
What Old Man Qin did was no secret. It had long been known to everyone, so Qin Xiufen naturally knew the whole story long ago.
As for hating Old Man Qin, Qin Xiufen really didn't have much hatred. If he hadn't taken away her grandmother's ancestral shadow, their Qin family wouldn't have been able to live a wealthy life for so many years.
Qin Xiufen is the beneficiary, what can she say?
But when it comes to retribution, Qin Xiufen feels aggrieved. It was Old Man Qin who did it, not her, so why should she be the one to take the retribution?
She just wants to find a good man to spend her life with.
After hesitating for a while, Qin Xiufen said weakly: "You can't say that. My father is also a victim."
Having said this, Qin Xiufen told Xu Lin the whole story, regardless of whether she wanted to hear it or not.
