Chapter 91
Fu Le already had a plan for the medicine identification master. She would personally go and invite the person back. Wu Yizhen, an old Chinese medicine doctor from Nanhe Province, was a highly respected old Chinese medicine doctor. Even she, who knew nothing about medicine in her previous life, knew him. There was only one reason: when he was seventy years old, he used a colorless and odorless poison to kill an entire family, from the old to the young, leaving no one alive.
The reason for his ruthless killings, later revealed to the public, was that the old Chinese medicine doctor Wu possessed a highly effective prescription for treating blood diseases. This prescription attracted the covetous eyes of powerful and influential individuals, leading to his demise. His son, daughter-in-law, daughter, son-in-law, grandchildren, and other family members all perished in car accidents. His wife died on the spot upon learning the outcome. He, however, lived a secluded life for ten years, and at the age of seventy, personally avenged his enemies. After his revenge, he wrote a will and returned home that very night, passing away peacefully. Besides donating his assets to the nation, his will included four large characters hanging above his bed: 'The world is unjust!'
After Mr. Wu's story came to light, it spread throughout the country and became a topic of conversation. However, many people in the industry also felt sorry for him because they shared his story.
It was after his incident that traditional Chinese medicine received high attention from the higher authorities, and many traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who had been suppressed were given a chance to breathe.
From this point onward, there are still four years until his family members are murdered; there is still time.
According to news reports from my past life, the old traditional Chinese medicine doctor should still be providing free medical consultations in his hometown, and that heartless, high-ranking official should not have contracted a blood disease and should have gone there to seek treatment.
It's a pity that such a family, all of whom were peaceful and unassuming, met such a tragic end. But throughout history, how many loyal and virtuous people have been harmed by greed? This is the inherent weakness of human nature, and it will never disappear.
Fu Le has set the time to find a pharmacist after the college entrance examination, but the specific time will be determined later. For now, all her energy should be focused on her studies.
Time flew by and it was already the New Year. Fu Le had a New Year that wasn't much different from his previous life. Even though things had taken a different turn, the unpleasantness was still the same.
The two aunts and the younger uncle stopped talking about the debt, and they started borrowing money again. Old Fu, that troublesome old man, lent out the money again. Fortunately, Fu Le discovered it in time and stopped most of it, otherwise, he could have squandered it all.
Fu Le was so angry that jumping up and down was useless. He made up his mind not to let his mother manage the money anymore. Every night when he came home, he would turn on the lights to settle the bill and take all the money he owed for the housing reconstruction. Every month, the mother and son would go together to pay off the debt, and the rest would be used for the family's living expenses.
Currently, the butcher shop's annual income is only between 70,000 and 80,000 yuan. Including renovations and construction, they spent 400,000 yuan and owe more than 300,000 yuan. With so much debt, the fact that the mother still dared to borrow money from Lao Fu's brothers and sisters shows that the butcher shop has given her the confidence to stand up straight!
I'm so angry!! This is like a pair of steamed buns, a pot and a lid, a perfect match!
She finally understood that Lao Fu's dog-like personality would never change in this lifetime, so she might as well cut it off from the source and make him poor to the end. As for her own mother, as long as Lao Fu didn't cause trouble, she would never cause any trouble. She was simply a case of "marrying a dog, following the dog." If society hadn't become more open later, her own mother wouldn't even sit at the table for meals. She had no illusions about someone who truly put her husband first. She couldn't change her.
"Fu Le, did you report the teahouse?!" Old Fu stormed home and immediately flew into a rage when he saw his daughter relaxing on the balcony. He had only found out today that the teahouse where he played cards every day had been reported, and the owners, a husband and wife, had been taken away for allegedly gambling and were likely to be sentenced. The phone number that reported them was none other than his own.
Knowing the result was devastating. If that couple really gets sentenced, won't they skin his daughter alive when they get out? This girl really doesn't think before she acts. They've run a teahouse for so many years and nobody's bothered them. Are they just ordinary people? They definitely have connections. Even if it's just ordinary connections, how could they not find a phone number? If you really want to call the police, at least use a different phone number!
"I didn't, don't wrong me." Fu Le spread his hands, "I still need to read, don't bother me." He continued to flip through the booklet in his hand.
Old Fu, who was being ignored: ...I'm so angry, but I don't know how to deal with it. What should I do?
"Fu Le, you get down here right now!!" Old Fu's bad temper finally exploded. He was so angry. Did this brat really disrespect her father?!
Hearing Lao Fu's footsteps coming upstairs, Fu Le threw down his exercise book and waited in the second-floor hall, making sure to close the French windows on the balcony tightly, after all, family scandals should not be aired in public.
Old Fu quickly appeared in the hall, his dark face full of anger. But before he could speak, Fu Le interrupted, "Dad, what do you have to say about Cao Jinhua? Do you believe I'll take Mom and divorce you?!"
Old Fu: !!!
In an instant, cold sweat poured down his back. Old Fu felt as if the top of his head was about to be blown off. He was almost scared to death by his daughter's words. How did his girl know? They hadn't done anything, they were just playing cards.
Seeing Lao Fu's distorted expression, Fu Le felt a pang of pain in her heart. In her previous life, Cao Jinhua's affair was only revealed by Cao Jinhua herself after Lao Fu's death. She said that she and Lao Fu had a relationship, although they didn't actually have sex, but they were still close friends. Her mother fainted on the spot from anger. At Lao Fu's funeral, her whole family became the laughing stock of the village. This was also an important reason why her own mother was willing to go to a distant place with her. Even after her mother passed away, she was not buried with him.
“Fu Le, don’t talk nonsense. Let me tell you, if your mother finds out what you’re saying, it’ll be a disaster. I have nothing to do with Cao Jinhua. Don’t misunderstand her. Also, you’re just a kid, don’t tell everyone. You don’t understand adult matters!” Although he felt guilty, Old Fu was still self-righteous.
"You can gamble again, but wherever you gamble, I'll call the police on charges of gambling! And Cao Jinhua, if you dare to be with her again, I'll call the police on charges of prostitution!!"
"Fu Le!!!" Old Fu roared, "Are you out of your mind?!"
"If you dare to gamble or seduce women again, I'll go crazy!" Fu Le retorted sharply, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, as if he were about to kill the person opposite him at any moment.
Old Fu swallowed hard at the look in his daughter's eyes, but then he realized that as a father, it was shameful to be afraid of his daughter. "Do whatever you want, I don't care anymore!" With that, Old Fu shrank back and ran downstairs.
Fu Le: ...
If he can't win an argument, he'll run away; Old Fu has never changed.
Fu Le was so angry that he kicked over the living room sofa. He kept taking deep breaths and reminding himself that this was his biological father. It took him a few minutes to calm down.
"Brother Lu, have someone keep a close eye on Lao Fu for me. If he gambles, call the police for gathering a crowd. If he's with Cao Jinhua, call the police for Cao Jinhua selling sex."
"Okay." Lu Shi was speechless about Fu Le's unreliable father. It was hard for Fu Le to be so busy every day, and he would still cause trouble from time to time. Of course, Old Fu wasn't without his good points, such as his network of connections, which helped Fu Le a lot.
With the college entrance exam approaching, Fu Le studied day and night, staying up all night to review and do practice questions. This was her life, without a moment's rest. Wang Jin and Fang Ge seemed to have disappeared, never appearing in her life again.
