Everyone was startled again!
The blood was golden yellow, but after spitting out the blood, the old man seemed more energetic. He touched his little finger and found that no more blood was dripping from it.
Others only saw that the old man was in better spirits, but the old man himself knew that he was not only in better spirits, but he felt just like he did ten years ago. He could walk and move around, and he felt perfectly fine!
The old man waved his hand, signaling the person supporting him to let go. Then he stood up and walked a few steps around the room. He stood by the window, gazing out, and no one in the room dared to disturb him.
The old man remained silent for a while, then turned around, gazed at everyone, and said, "Since you're all here, I'm telling you this: none of you are allowed to spread this matter outside, understand? I will explain the situation to others myself!"
The Wei sisters and Wei Haihong and his wife all agreed. However, among everyone, only Wei Haihong understood what the old man meant.
The old man said again, "Haihong, you and Xiao Zhou stay here. I have something to say."
Wei Xiaoqing said reproachfully, "Grandpa!"
The old man glared at him. He said, "Everyone out, Grandpa has something to say."
Wei Xiaoqing could only mutter to herself as she followed Xue Hua and her sister out.
After everyone left, Zhou Xuan looked at Wei Haihong and the old man, scratched his head, smiled and said, "Brother Hong, I can indeed cure the old man's illness, but each treatment requires several days of recuperation. Only after the blood and body have recovered can the second treatment be performed. In total, it will require about twenty treatments. It is estimated that it will take about two months in total for the old man's illness to be completely cured."
Wei Haihong exclaimed happily, "Brother, really?"
The old man nodded and sighed, "Little Zhou, you didn't even realize it. I can feel that the power within my body has returned to what it was more than ten years ago. I don't know why you have this ability, but I'm very grateful to you. Third brother!"
Wei Haihong responded respectfully, listening to the old man speak. "In the past, I scolded you for everything and never gave you a kind look, because you weren't as ambitious as your older brothers. Not pursuing an official career might be a good thing, but we were almost fifty when you were born, and your mother spoiled you a bit. Although she's no longer here, she was the one who doted on you the most, and you were the one who spoiled me the most, so I kept a close eye on you. Over the years, I've seen you doing business and making a name for yourself, and as long as it's not too excessive, I've turned a blind eye. After all, children and grandchildren need to live and eat. As long as you don't make any big mistakes, I'll let you be. Over the years, I haven't given you a kind look, but the only thing that makes me happy is that you made a friend like Xiao Zhou!"
Wei Haihong lowered his head and said, "Dad, I know I'm not good enough, and I can't compare to my older brothers."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this!" The old man smiled slightly and said, "Third son, why don't you arrange for the Zhou family to relocate? Should I give them a heads-up?"
Wei Haihong immediately looked up and laughed, "Dad, why would you need to get involved in this? I have some connections. It would be a waste of your talents for you to speak up, haha!"
The old man waved his hand and said, "You should handle Xiao Zhou's matter as your own. I'm sleepy, I'm going to take a nap."
After leaving the room and going downstairs, Wei Xiaoqing and Xue Hua were chatting incessantly in the living room, while Wei Xiaoyu sat on the sofa watching TV.
As soon as Wei Xiaoqing saw them, she asked, "Uncle, what did Grandpa say?"
Wei Haihong snorted. He said, "Grandpa said we should find someone to marry you off quickly, so you won't be a nuisance all the time!"
Wei Xiaoqing pouted and hummed.
Wei Haihong pulled Zhou Xuan outside, saying as they walked, "Brother, let's go out for a walk."
Achang had already driven the car over. Wei Haihong and Zhou Xuan had just gotten into the car and sat down when Wei Xiaoqing followed them in.
Wei Haihong asked in surprise, "Xiao Cai, what are you doing?"
"Why didn't you take me with you when you went out? You can't keep all the fun and delicious food to yourself, unless you're going to some shady place." Wei Xiaoqing said quite reasonably, "If you take me, I won't tell Aunt and Grandpa."
Wei Haihong glared at her, but Wei Xiaoqing wasn't afraid of her uncle at all. She ignored him, closed the car door, and told Achang to drive.
Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Let's go, it'll be more fun with more people. Achang, drive."
Achang turned back to Wei Haihong and asked, "Boss, where are we going?"
"Yijinglou!" Wei Haihong said, then turned to Zhou Xuan and said, "Because of the old man's health, Wang Sao cooks light meals at home, so let's go eat first. After we've eaten, we'll take the brothers to look at a few real estate developments. Oh, and..."
Wei Haihong then thought of something else: "Brother, how about we invite your fellow villager over for dinner?"
"Alright!" Zhou Xuan said with a smile, "I'm afraid he's feeling quite lost right now. Letting him out for a walk helps him clear his head; he's worried about things!"
Wei Haihong smiled and handed his phone to Zhou Xuan, who then took out his business card and dialed the number.
The call connected, and Zhou Xuan said, "Boss, it's me!"
Upon hearing Zhou Xuan's voice, the eldest brother angrily shouted, "Little brother, why did it take you so long to call?"
"Oh!" Zhou Xuan exclaimed in surprise, "Something happened?"
After calming down, he said, "Nothing happened. I packed my bags and took my wife to hide in a small hotel, but someone still found me. They hinted that they were there for He Laosan, but not to cause me any trouble. They wanted me to pass on a message that they would pay any amount of money to let him go. This has completely confused me!"
Zhou Xuan turned to Wei Haihong and said, "Let your boss think about it himself. But I think whether to let him go or not is a small matter. We can't just let him go because he says so. Let him stay for a few days. Let He Laosan be put on the spot, and then talk to your boss. Whether to let him go or not is his decision, because it's his business. But if we're going to let him go, we have to give him a good whack and make him feel the pain!"
The phone was in Zhou Xuan's hand, and Wei Haihong was next to him. The person on the other end of the phone had heard everything clearly and was filled with doubt and surprise. This Brother Hong was so arrogant!
However, he had no choice but to believe it, because he knew about He Laosan's power. But now that the other party had come to his door, he didn't dare to say a word and just begged him politely. It seemed that his younger brother had really met a benefactor!
Before Zhou Xuan could speak, ** said, "Little brother, I understand. Let it drag on. You've already said what you're doing. I know what I'm doing."
Zhou Xuan chuckled and said, "That's good. Boss, are you free now? If you are, come to Yijinglou for a meal!"
Hearing that Brother Hong was right next to Zhou Xuan, Zhou Xuan, who was eager to get to know this big shot, immediately said with delight, "Okay, I'll be right there."
Yijinglou is a restaurant. Zhou Xuan had never been to Beijing before, so of course he wasn't familiar with it. Wei Xiaoqing sighed, "Uncle, I haven't been here for a year. You brought me here last time, didn't you?"
Wei Haihong snorted and said, "Are you still going to run away?"
Wei Xiaoqing shook her head, somewhat sadly saying, "No, with Grandpa like this, I'm not going anywhere!"
Seeing her like this, Wei Haihong realized her filial piety was genuine and couldn't bear to say anything more to her. After getting out of the car, the restaurant's security guard told Achang to park the car in the parking lot.
The waitress led the four of them to a private room on the second floor. Zhou Xuan specifically instructed that when ** came, he should be brought here. The waitress noted this down.
Tea was served first, and before any food was ordered, the waiter arrived in a hurry within ten minutes. After the waiter led him to the room, Zhou Xuan stood up and pulled him to sit down, but he stared at Wei Haihong, wiping the sweat from his forehead with a look full of admiration.
Zhou Xuan then introduced him seriously, saying, "Boss, this is Brother Hong, the friend I told you about, someone who's like an older brother to me."
