As Yao Tongjia got out of the car, Li Youyou took her arm: "Sister Tong, why didn't you come this morning?"
Yao Tongjia touched Li Youyou's hair, but before she could say anything, she felt a darkness in front of her. It turned out that Li Chenyi had also come out. He could finally get a good night's sleep last night.
But Yao Tongjia only arrived now. He thought she wasn't coming because of the problem between her sister and her brother, and he was wondering whether he should go to her house to find her.
Unexpectedly, Yao Tongjia saw that both siblings were looking at her and could only explain, "Yesterday I went back to the military region. My girlfriend's mother was about to give birth, so I went to help. I was busy until 3 a.m. before I could sleep."
Yao Tongjia's explanation made Li Chenyi's lips twitch. His girlfriend's mother giving birth? He recognized each of those words individually, but putting them together felt very strange!
Li Youyou was very enthusiastic: "Sister Tong, have you eaten? There's bird's nest porridge today, shall I have someone serve you a bowl?"
Yao Tongjia shook her head: "I've already eaten before coming. Let's go get acupuncture first, and I'll take your pulse later."
Upon entering Li Youyou's room, Li Chenyi took off his shirt and lay back on the sofa chair without Yao Tongjia saying a word. Only after Yao Tongjia took out the needle to disinfect it did Li Youyou's eyes well up with tears.
Yao Tongjia couldn't help but think of Yao Tongxu. These two seemed like an unlikely match, so she wondered why they had fallen for each other. Oh well, let their relationship develop naturally.
Otherwise, the more intense the pressure, the more they feel it's true love, and perhaps without interference, their love will wither away?
Yao Tongjia cleared her mind of all distractions and continued inserting the needles one by one. When Yao Tongjia finished, Li Youyou handed her a handkerchief: "Sister Tong, wipe your sweat. Are you very tired?"
Yao Tongjia shook her head: "It's not tiring, it just requires a high level of concentration!"
Seeing Li Youyou's red eyes, Yao Tongjia teased, "Feeling sorry for her again?"
Li Youyou said awkwardly, "No, it's just that my hands and feet feel weak, and I feel really sorry for them!"
"I've been stabbing you for days, and you haven't even cried for yourself?!"
"I'm lying down to give you acupuncture, so I can't see how you insert the needles. If I could see it, I probably wouldn't let you do it!"
"Then you should thank me for having acupuncture points on your back, otherwise you would really rather lie in bed than give me acupuncture?"
Thinking of her previous weakness and how her brother had taken her everywhere to seek medical treatment, Li Youyou quickly shook her head: "I will still treat you. You have to get healthy!"
Yao Tongjia nodded. That's more like it. Otherwise, if they always cry and whine and don't care about their health, they'll only know how to cause trouble. If they become her sister-in-law, she will definitely stay away from them.
While thinking about her sister-in-law, Li Youyou brought it up on her own: "Sister Tong, Ah Xu came to see me yesterday, and we're planning to give it a try!"
Yao Tongjia was surprised that it wasn't Yao Tongxu who spoke to her, but this seemingly frail person. She was momentarily distracted and didn't answer Li Youyou's question.
Li Youyou asked nervously, "Sister Tong, you don't agree?"
Yao Tongjia came to her senses: "I have no objection to your choice, but Youyou, you should know that our family has some background. If you are with Axu, your background will probably be investigated."
Li Youyou had already heard her brother's analysis, and now that Yao Tongjia was talking about it, she took the opportunity to mention Yao Tongxu's opinion from last night: "Brother, Ah Xu said you can come here to invest!"
Li Chenyi's face was somewhat displeased. He merely snorted at what his sister had said and then fell silent.
Yao Tongjia understood Li Chenyi's question: "Wait until your relationship with A Xu is stable before discussing the rest. Also, Youyou, people here are relatively conservative, so you should also be prepared for marriage."
"Do you mean that if I agree to date, it means I'm tacitly agreeing to get married later?"
Yao Tongjia nodded: "That's roughly the idea. If you feel it's not appropriate, you should say so quickly. Don't drag it out for a year or two!"
Li Youyou hesitated for a moment: "Okay, I'll ask Sister Xinyue!"
Hearing Li Youyou's words, Yao Tongjia felt relieved: "The factory hasn't applied for our cooperation yet, but our products haven't made a name for themselves yet, so it's okay to sell them at my pharmacy for now!"
"I have to go to the military region soon. How about you go to the pharmacy to help with the products, Youyou?" Yao Tongjia felt a headache coming on when she thought about running to three places in one day. Fortunately, she had already graduated from school, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to be in two places at once.
Li Youyou nodded excitedly: "Okay, Sister Tong, please let me know if you need anything. I have plenty of time!"
She used to be able to use her time to go to the beauty salon and gym in the port city, but here, she can only sit there all day. It's so boring, but she still thinks this place is better, at least it's quieter.
After Li Chenyi finished acupuncture, Yao Tongjia was packing her things when Li Chenyi handed her a check for 15 million M yuan. Yao Tongjia looked at it and said, "Why is there 5 million more than that?"
"Because your medical skills are worth so much money. When I was in Hong Kong, I saw several doctors, and they all charged high fees, but none of them could cure me."
Indeed, Li Chenyi was not one to sit idly by and wait for death. He had previously spent no less than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, yet not a single one of them could cure him.
He's only had two or three acupuncture sessions, but he feels like he's really getting better, and he feels bad if he doesn't pay more.
Seeing his sincerity, Yao Tongjia generously accepted the gift: "I promise to heal you completely. I will also help you treat any hidden injuries in your body!"
Upon hearing about the hidden injury, Li Chenyi was extremely impressed by Yao Tongjia's medical skills. Yao Tongjia looked like she wasn't even an adult yet, and he really didn't know how she had learned such medical skills.
Seeing that Yao Tongjia had finished, Li Youyou pulled Yao Tongjia outside and said, "Sister Tong prepared some nourishing bird's nest soup for you. Have some with me!"
Yao Tongjia did not refuse this time. She had eaten bird's nest in her previous life, but her mother was poisoned and she no longer had the leisure to eat it.
After her mother passed away, no one prepared food for her, so she was even less likely to eat such things.
Looking at the translucent bird's nest adorned with red dates and goji berries, Yao Tongjia suppressed her previous longing and smiled as she thanked them, "Thank you! I must try this rich person's food!"
"What kind of food is this for the rich? Many people in the port city eat this!"
Yao Tongjia: "..." How was she supposed to explain to this young lady that ordinary families couldn't afford a bowl of bird's nest? She scooped up a mouthful of bird's nest and put it in her mouth.
It felt like it melted in her mouth, sliding down her tongue in no time. She finished it in a few bites and said, "Youyou, if you're with Axu, he probably won't be able to afford a bowl of bird's nest every day!"
