Wu Bingzhong and his brother had a good chat with Sheng Xiping and his brother, and invited them to stay for dinner.
With the mistress's permission, the nanny specially added extra dishes, making dinner a very sumptuous affair.
Wu Bingzhong even had two bottles of Moutai brought out so he could have a few drinks with the Sheng Xiping brothers.
After dinner, the Sheng brothers sat for a while longer before getting up to say goodbye.
"Alright, that's all for today. Since Xiping has important business to attend to in the south, we shouldn't keep you too long. We wish you a smooth journey."
If you encounter any difficulties, you can call home.
"Some of the old man's former subordinates, as well as several of my sworn brothers, are in various southern provinces and can help." Wu Bingzhong stood up to see Sheng Xiping off and said this.
After talking for so long, Wu Bingzhong had learned why Sheng Xiping had come to the capital this time.
Some of his words came from the heart, but most of them were just polite formalities.
"Thank you, Uncle. If there are any issues that I cannot resolve, I will have to trouble you." Sheng Xiping did not take Wu Bingzhong's words seriously.
Even if Sheng Xikang passes the second test today, he is barely qualified to be with Wu Yuhua. Whether the two of them can get together in the future is still unknown.
They were just being polite; anyone who takes it seriously is a fool.
Wu Yuqing and his brother, along with Wu Yuhua, saw them off at the gate.
It was clear that Wu Yuhua was quite happy today. She chatted with Sheng Xikang for a while longer before they parted ways.
It's quite late. Wu's place is far from the school, and there aren't many buses running at this hour.
So the Wu family arranged for a driver to take the Sheng brothers back.
When they arrived at their destination, Sheng Xiping thanked the driver and then turned to give instructions to Sheng Xikang.
"Go back to school and focus on your studies. Don't put all your energy into dating."
From now on, no matter who you're with, there are things you can say and things you can't say; you need to know your limits.
"Well, I'm leaving tomorrow, I need to go home first."
"Huh? Going home? Brother, weren't you going south? Why are you going home now?"
Sheng Xikang was about to nod when he suddenly heard his older brother say he was going home, and he was stunned. What did that mean?
Sheng Xiping took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to kick someone.
"Why did you say you came home? To get you some Dengxuan sheep's blood."
Didn't you see what the old man of the Wu family looks like? If the sheep blood really works, the Wu family will owe us a huge favor.
"Whether you and Wu Yuhua end up together or not, the Wu family will have to treat you with utmost respect."
Given Mr. Wu's status, if he lives a few more years, his descendants will be blessed for a few more years.
Although Mr. Wu is still alive, he is unable to move or speak, and his role is almost non-existent.
If Old Wu can recover, even if he doesn't participate in anything, with him overseeing things for a few more years, the Wu family can reach new heights.
Old Wu's recovery is of great importance to the Wu family, which is why Wu Bingzhong and Wu Bingyi were so excited when Sheng Xiping mentioned sheep blood.
If the Sheng family can truly help find the blood of the sheep, and Old Wu also benefits from it, then the Sheng family can be considered the benefactor of the Wu family.
This will be of great help to Sheng Xikang and Wu Yuhua's marriage.
For his younger brother's sake, Sheng Xiping had no choice but to postpone his plans to go south and go home first to find Xuan Yangxue.
"Brother, do you know where I can get sheep's blood?" Sheng Xikang stared at his older brother, mouth agape, incredulous. "There really is such a thing?"
Sheng Xiping glared at his younger brother. "Don't worry about it. I'll figure something out when I get back."
He certainly knows where it is, but he can't say right now.
If the third brother, with his big mouth, were to speak now, he might tell Wu Yuhua tomorrow.
The key point is that this thing is not in Sheng Xiping's hands, and he doesn't know if he can persuade the other party. How could Sheng Xiping easily say something he's not sure about?
"You'd better keep this to yourself and not tell anyone. Not even to your boyfriend, you have to shut your mouth."
Third brother, you're about to start working, and the nature of your job means you must understand the meaning of confidentiality.
If you can't do that, well, that's all you'll ever be.
Sheng Xiping rarely put on airs as the eldest brother to scold his younger brothers.
The third brother, in particular, always thought that this kid was smart, quick-witted, and insightful, so he didn't need to be worried about too much.
In retrospect, the third brother was still too young and lacked experience.
"Oh, I understand, brother." Sheng Xikang understood that his older brother was doing this for his own good, so he quickly nodded.
"Brother, you've worked so hard. Your plan to go south to make money has been delayed because of me." Sheng Xikang felt a little guilty.
"Stop talking nonsense. Why are you saying all that to your own brothers? It's better for you to be doing well than anything else."
Besides, I admire Mr. Wu, and I'm happy to help him.
Such an old hero deserves everyone's respect, and Sheng Xiping was willing to work hard and go to great lengths for Wu Lao's affairs.
Having said what needed to be said, the two brothers parted ways and went back to rest.
The next morning, Sheng Xiping packed his things, checked out of the hotel, went straight to the train station, bought a return train ticket, and took the train back to Tonghua.
Then he returned to Songjianghe from Tonghua. After getting off the train, Sheng Xiping didn't even go home. He tried to find a car and went straight back to the forest farm.
By the time he arrived at the forest farm, it was already past five o'clock and almost dark.
Zhang Shuzhen was cooking when she suddenly heard her dog whimpering, followed by footsteps. She peeked out and froze.
"Boss? Didn't you say you were going south? Why haven't you left yet?"
"Mom, I've arrived in the capital, but some urgent business has brought me back."
Sheng Xiping entered the room, threw his large backpack onto the kang (a heated brick bed), and turned to leave.
