On the first day of the new year, the Fu family successfully invited the Medicine God into the manor.
Fu Dingfeng is a very powerful person. After so many years, he naturally knows who Fu Yuxiu can listen to.
The good calligraphy that Fu Yuxiu can write is partly due to Fu Han.
In the entire Fu family, Fu Han and his wife were indifferent to the world. Coupled with the past relationship between Gu Shulan and Nan Jinxiu, Fu Yuxiu could more or less listen to his words.
Furthermore, this time is a little different from the past. The old man's health is really not good.
Nan Jinxiu forced Fu Yuxiu to swear an oath that as long as Fu Dingfeng lived, he would not attack the Fu family or leave the Fu family.
Therefore, Fu Dingfeng's death may not be that important to him, but it does not mean he doesn't care at all.
The imperial capital has been in constant turmoil during this period, but the Fu family is like that giant ship floating in the ocean.
No matter how turbulent the wind and waves are, they remain completely motionless.
After all, the foundation has been deep for many years, and it is not easy to shake. I just don’t know how long this peace can last.
There is always calm before the storm.
Wen Li and Fu Yuxiu came in the same car. When they got off the car, the servants in the manor were still busy clearing away the snow.
The snow that fell this year was much heavier than in previous years.
The fiery red lantern was particularly eye-catching in the white snow. Fu Yuxiu hugged the girl in his arms and walked forward.
"You don't have to give face to others when you go in. If someone bullies you, don't be polite, just give it back. I'll support you."
The previous events were still vivid in his mind. Fu Yuxiu had dreamed about the girl standing on the fence of the Royal Hotel several times.
Even if she didn't mean that, the position was so precarious that it made people scared.
"Am I so useless in your eyes?" Wen Li raised his eyebrows.
Fu Yuxiu knew that she could not be easily bullied, but she had a cold temper and did not want to let some things pass her ears.
Fu Han listened to the conversation between the two and felt enlightened.
This is really the end of love. Look at the way he lowers his head and talks gently to the person in his arms.
In a daze, Fu Han seemed to see the original Fu Yuan, who also loved Nan Jinxiu so much.
It's a pity that in a family like theirs, if the woman they marry is not from an excellent family background, she will have no one to rely on.
That requires a lot of skill and means.
It's a pity that Nan Jinxiu is too gentle, and such a beautiful person is not suitable to live in this dye vat.
From the moment she entered the Fu family, her ending was doomed.
Fu Han came back to his senses and looked at the two people who had entered the front hall. Their ending would be different from Nan Jinxiu's.
This Wen Li's character seems to combine the best parts of his parents, with Wen Xuqian's calmness and Hua Yan's general knowledge.
Gu Shulan arranged her clothes and came from behind. When she went to pay New Year's greetings to Fu Dingfeng in the morning, he was not in good spirits.
She came back and watched the kitchen stewing the newly improved medicinal food before she came over.
"You're back."
Gu Shulan went to her husband and said hello, "Didn't you marry Yu Xiu? Is he back?"
"I just went in and took the little girl with me."
Gu Shulan's breathing stopped for a moment, "The God of Medicine?"
"right."
People have already arrived at Fu's house, so naturally no one can say anything.
Gu Shulan smiled, but she was very happy, "That's good. I was worried that she wouldn't want to come over to see Dad."
Fu Han raised his hand and gently brushed away the snowflakes falling on her shoulders, "Let's go in first."
To be honest, this child is not reassuring. Even if he returns to the Fu family, he still has the ability to make the old man angry to death.
Because today is the first day of the new year, almost all the Fu family's children are in the living room, and they haven't left yet because they just paid Fu Dingfeng a New Year's greeting.
Everyone has a red envelope in their hands, and Fu Dingfeng is very generous.
The red envelope given every year contains eight figures of lucky money, even for Ilia, who has just arrived at the Fu family.
Fu Yuxiu and Wen Li attracted everyone's attention almost as soon as they entered the door.
Fu Zhining sneered, but held back his sarcastic remarks.
After all, Rover had reminded her just now that the medicine god next to the young master was here to treat the old master.
Treat each other with courtesy and never be rude.
Now that the situation has reached a fever pitch, she cannot afford to bore her grandfather at this juncture.
"Second brother." Fu Zhiqing stood up and called with his head lowered.
Still looking timid and afraid to look at people, Wen Li also became curious about the fourth young lady of the Fu family.
"Flattery." Fu Zhining said disdainfully.
She didn't call this illegitimate child warm every time. No wonder she could sympathize with him. A child born to a servant had a low status.
Fu Zhiqing didn't refute her words, but just sat beside her obediently.
"You are a little late here. The New Year's greetings should be earlier." Fu Yuheng said with a smile.
Illya stared at Wen Li with her eyes, like an enemy. This woman always haunted him, and he could actually see her on the first day of the new year.
"Young Master, the old lady is waiting for you in the study." Rover said.
Fu Yuxiu led people towards the study room. Seeing his actions, Luo Fu stopped him.
"Miss Wen Li, please move to the small hall and wait." Rover said.
The old man has something to say to the young master, and it is best for others not to be present.
"I think you'd better keep Miss Wen Li here." Gu Shulan advised as she entered.
If the old man really wanted to talk to him, he didn't want outsiders to be present.
"It just so happens that I have something to ask Miss Wen Li. I wonder if my brother-in-law is willing to let her stay alone with us?" Ilia said with a smile.
Fu Zhining added, "We will not bully her."
After all, he is a distinguished guest invited by grandpa, and he wants to help grandpa take care of his health.
Can't be offended easily.
"Go in." Wen Li said to the man.
She really wasn't curious about what Fu Dingfeng wanted to tell him. She was willing to come this time because she had been entrusted by Bai Guangjing before.
Luo Fu nodded to Gu Shulan. The latter agreed to come down and naturally had to take good care of the Medicine God.
"Miss Wen Li, please come over here and sit down. They will probably be talking for a while." Gu Shulan asked Wen Li to come over to her.
Fu Han looked at it for a long time, not showing much interest in talking to so many women, and turned around and left the living room.
Fu Yuheng glanced at it and went upstairs bored.
The assistant followed closely behind, and the two of them looked back in the direction of the old man's study before going upstairs.
What can you say if you call someone in alone like this
Gu Shulan smiled and talked to Wen, "What would Miss Wen Li want to drink? Coffee, juice, or purified water?"
"Cafe."
Gu Shulan ordered the servant next to her to grind coffee.
Here Fu Zhining glanced at Wen Li and suddenly said something strangely.
"I want some coffee too."
Gu Shulan glanced at her and said, "Don't make trouble."
There are guests here. Why is this kid making a fuss
"I'm not making a fuss, I just want to drink a cup of coffee."
Gu Shulan looked at the servant and said, "Make the eldest lady a drink too."
Fu Zhining raised her hand to stop the servant's movements, crossed her chest and looked at Fu Zhiqing opposite.
"You go and make me some coffee. Grind the coffee by hand and grind it finer for me."
Fu Zhiqing, who lowered his head, did not refute and stood up obediently.
"Zhiqing's hand is injured. You can't bathe. Let the servant bathe you." Gu Shulan grabbed Fu Zhiqing and pulled him back.
"I want to drink her brew. Her skills are unmatched by others."
When Fu Zhining said this, his eyes rose up, full of disdain and contempt.
The servants on the side looked at each other in confusion. The entire Fu family knew that the fourth lady was not favored, and the old man could just ignore her as an airhead.
The eldest lady often bullies her.
The fourth lady has done everything from squeezing shoulders and legs, doing laundry and massage, serving tea and water.
She is obviously the daughter of the Fu family, and no one in the entire imperial capital dares to offend her. However, in the Fu family, her status is not comparable to that of Luo Fu, the housekeeper, or some old servants.
Fu Zhiqing obediently walked over to the bar without saying a word "no" the whole time, and there wasn't even an expression of rejection on her face.
Gu Shulan could only ask the servant to follow him and take a look, but Fu Zhining spoke.
"I only drink what she brews. If any of you dare to interfere, don't blame me for being rude."
The servant who was about to help retracted his hand and could only watch Fu Zhiqing busy alone with an apologetic look.
Gu Shulan couldn't say anything about this. Fu Zhining was used to being arrogant and domineering, and she especially didn't like Fu Zhiqing's younger sister.
She couldn't say anything. If she tried to persuade him, Fu Zhiqing would be bullied even worse next time.
In the final analysis, the child is too soft-tempered and does not have a strong maternal support.
In addition, her birth was not liked by the old man, and she was regarded as unknown by the entire Fu family.
Over time, no one dared to care about her affairs.
"Why do you like drinking the coffee she made so much? The Fu family doesn't have outstanding baristas." Ilia put a piece of cut fruit into her mouth and said disapprovingly.
"What do you know? She makes the best hand-grinded coffee. Her mother was a very good barista at the beginning. She passed it down from her mother. Not only does she have low blood, but she also passed down some good things." When Fu Zhining said this, he made it clear what he meant.
Illya looked in the direction of Wen Li, with a bright smile between her eyebrows.
"Yes, sometimes a person's origin determines his or her status. Her mother's craftsmanship is so good, but she has learned some skills over the years, and she can be considered a skilled craftsman."
Lu Min felt uncomfortable hearing this and subconsciously looked in the direction of Miss Wen Li.
These two dead women are clearly criticizing each other.
It’s a shame that Miss Wen Li could hold it back.
Gu Shulan glanced at her and knew that part of the reason why Fu Zhining didn't like Wen Li was because of Fu Yuxiu.
But Fu Zhining never dared to mention the words illegitimate child in front of Fu Yuxiu, and he would restrain himself if he should.
After all, it's not something to be trifled with.
But there are some rumors about Miss Wen Li's temper in the Imperial Capital recently.
The recovered eldest lady of the Li family is even more calm and collected when facing big scenes than the head of the family, Li Langhua.
Many people who have met Wen Li can also see the calm aura in her.
She didn't seem to pay attention to what Fu Zhining and Ilia said, lowering her head and fiddling with the needle bag she brought with her.
Fu Zhiqing quickly left and returned, serving the newly brewed coffee among several people.
"Okay." She squatted at the table and handed over one cup after another.
Illya took the coffee cup over and began to taste it carefully.
"Not bad."
The taste is not much different from professional ones.
"Sister." Fu Zhiqing handed over the cup.
Fu Zhining lowered his head to read the magazine on his lap and reached out without raising his head, but accidentally touched the hot wall of the cup.
"You are trying to burn me to death!"
She raised her hand and slapped so many people in front of them.
"Snapped!"
The deafening sound was so forceful that Fu Zhiqing's whole head was dazed and buzzing.
But she didn't dare to say anything and stood aside with her head lowered, as if she had made a big mistake.
Lu Min was stunned and looked at Fu Zhiqing who turned away.
This hand was a little too heavy, and it hurt when I heard it. This was definitely intentional.
"You haven't practiced for a long time, haven't you? Make me a hundred cups of coffee tonight! The temperature should be moderate, neither cold nor hot!"
Gu Shulan hurriedly pulled Fu Zhiqing over to check. There was an obvious fingerprint on the girl's right face.
"Zhining, you are going too far. This is your sister."
Especially in front of outsiders, isn't this nonsense
"My sister?" Fu Zhining snorted, "She deserves it too! It's funny that a servant's child can become my sister."
Illya on the side pushed the coffee cup in front of Fu Zhiqing with a dignified and elegant smile on her face.
"It tastes pretty good, but I don't like it much lately, so I'll give this to you."
The remaining half cup of coffee was pushed directly in front of Fu Zhiqing, and Ilia's eyes showed provocation and coercion.
Lu Min could hardly bear it anymore, this was too much.
Fu Zhiqing lowered her head, as if resigned, and slowly stretched out her hand to grab the cup.
The outstretched hand hadn't even touched the cup.
Here Wen Li finally raised his head and threw the needle bag in his hand casually.
The cloth bag slid along the glass countertop, knocking over the cup of coffee with a moderate force, and the brown liquid dripped onto the windbreaker of the person in front of him.
"What are you doing!" Illya jumped up suddenly.
This dress is a limited edition she just bought recently and cannot be touched by water.
"My hand slipped." Wen Li retracted his hand with no guilt on his face.
"You did it on purpose." Illya looked at her fiercely.
This woman clearly did it on purpose. What does it mean that her hand slipped
Fu Dingfeng and Fu Yuxiu came out of the study here. They didn't know what they were talking about, but the old man's face didn't look good.
"Mr. Fu, I was asked by Mr. Bai to come here to help you perform acupuncture, but before we officially start, I need someone to help me try the acupuncture." Wen Li suddenly turned around and looked at Fu Dingfeng.
The old man was not in a good mood and waved his hand.
"Miss Wen Li, what kind of person is needed to perform acupuncture?" Luo Fu took a step forward.
No matter what she wants, the Fu family can find it.
"They are both pretty good, but I don't know if your grandson-in-law and granddaughter have the filial piety." Wen Li took time to look at the two astonished women opposite.
Fu Dingfeng glanced at Fu Zhining strangely, but said nothing on his face.
"Did you read that correctly? Miss Eldest and Miss Illya are going to be used to test the needle?" Rover confirmed, "Can't it be someone else?"
How could it be possible for these two noble men, with delicate skin and tender flesh, to cooperate
"To perform acupuncture, you need a blood relative of Mr. Fu, but after all, you are not a strong young man in his twenties, so you need to find someone who is not so strong. These two are just right. If you don't try this acupuncture, I won't I can guarantee what effect it will have.”
This was said so obviously that Rover could only look at Mr. Fu.
"You're talking nonsense, you did it on purpose!" Fu Zhining stepped forward in two steps.
This person did it on purpose, just to avenge what he had just done.
"Not everyone can make me do it. If these two don't cooperate, the treatment will not be carried out for the time being, so I will have to leave first."
This is a naked threat.
Luo Fu and Gu Shulan panicked immediately, and finally managed to get the medicine god to come over and nurse the old man back to health.
This man can't just leave.
"Zhining, after all, it's for your grandfather, see if you can aggrieve me a little bit." Gu Shulan persuaded.
How could Fu Zhining be so easily manipulated? He pointed at Fu Zhiqing next to him and spoke.
"Can't she do it too?"
Wen Li lowered his head and fiddled with the needle in his hand, and sneered, "Why, you enjoy the aura brought by the Fu family, but you are not willing to fulfill your filial piety?"
These words hit Fu Zhining immediately, and she subconsciously looked at Fu Dingfeng.
At this point, she couldn't let grandpa think she was ignorant.
"Okay." She gritted her teeth and agreed.
Ilia on the side said, "If you want to be a blood relative of grandpa, I am not."
"One blood relative is enough. You are just practicing your skills temporarily. It has other uses."
This sounds scary.
Fu Dingfeng's eyebrows were tired, but he didn't say anything, acquiescing to Wen Li's approach.
"Then I'll wait for Miss Wen Li in the study." Fu Dingfeng turned around after saying this.
Fu Yuxiu raised his hand to signal that Lu Min, who had been waiting for a long time, led someone to tie the two women to chairs.
He had endured it for a long time. These two women were too vicious.
Fu Yuxiu also saw the girl's bad intentions, and slowly took a glass of pure water and sat down next to her.
He looked like he was watching a good show.
Wen Li looked over and said, "Take off your coat, roll up your sleeves and everything, and untie your hair, otherwise it will be inconvenient to prick the acupuncture points on the top of your head."
As soon as these words came out, the two women sitting on the chairs sat upright.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Fu Zhining's voice trembled unconsciously.
Facing such long silver needles, the two women swallowed subconsciously and looked at the needle bags full of silver needles with horrified expressions.
"Hold it, I need to try these needles one by one."
Before Fu Zhining could recover, she was stabbed into the tiger's mouth.
"ah!"
The bodyguard tied the two people to chairs with ropes and stood waiting expressionlessly.
Lu Min looked at the needle inserted by Wen Li and felt inexplicably refreshed. He obviously couldn't be soft when dealing with a woman like this.
Not at all.
"Don't be afraid, it's only a hundred or so."
Wen Li worked very quickly. I wonder if it was Fu Zhining's misunderstanding. Every time she inserted the very painful acupuncture point, she deliberately pushed the needle in and then rotated it in a circle.
Fu Zhining could hardly bear it any longer and watched helplessly as Wen Li inserted the silver needles one after another.
Illya's head was covered in sweat from the pain, and she couldn't even scream even if she wanted to.
This woman definitely did it on purpose and found such a high-sounding reason that they couldn't refuse.
Seeing that the needle pack in his hand had bottomed out, Fu Zhining gasped, thinking he could finally get rid of it.
But he saw Wen Li take out a needle bag again. When he spread it out, it was full of silver needles.
There were more and thicker than before, and they reflected a dazzling light under the light.
The mentality of the two people completely collapsed, and they began to squirm crazily but could not break free.
He could only watch helplessly as Wen Li's needle sank into his skin.
Even Gu Shulan couldn't help turning her back. She had never seen the pharmacists at home giving acupuncture so miserable since she was a child.
Each of these acupuncture points is more painful than the last.
"Please be gentle!" Illya's voice was already crying.
She didn't expect this woman to retaliate so quickly. She was almost forced to the chair by the bodyguard.
There was no room for counterattack.
Fu Yuxiu poured a glass of water and walked over, slowly handing it to the woman's lips.
"Drink some water, don't be too tired."
Wen Li took a sip and continued to do it with an expressionless face.
Fu Yuxiu stood nearby with an indifferent expression, raising his hand from time to time to help Wen Li brush up the broken hair that fell from his forehead.
Fu Han and Fu Yuheng entered the door almost at the same time, gaping at the two women who were pricked with needles.
What's going on, what's going on.
After finally stopping, Wen Li exhaled and looked at Luo Fu, taking the wet wipe handed over by Lu Min and wiping his palms.
"How?" Rover asked worriedly.
"it is ready."
Seeing her getting up to leave, Ilia and Fu Zhining almost jumped up.
"wait… "
The two of them were already in pain and covered with sweat, and they couldn't even speak. Even the base of their tongues were hard, and their eyelashes were covered with sweat.
"Find someone to help them remove the needles. They will probably be in pain for a few days afterwards. Talk less and stay quiet."
Wen Li seemed to have thought of something and continued, "The needle is also lost. It's dirty anyway, so there's no need for it."
When Fu Zhining heard this, she fainted without even breathing.
Her face was covered with needles, and the servants nearby didn't dare to touch her, so they had to rush to find the pharmacist.
"I'm not done with her..." Illya fainted completely after saying this.
Gu Shulan sighed. This was Wen Li's naked revenge, and it was blatant.
The old man must have something else to say to her, otherwise it would be impossible to agree to her request.
Obviously Wen Li also noticed it and made good use of this.
Fu Zhiqing, who had been hiding nearby to reduce his presence, watched Wen Li turn towards the study.
She continued to lower her head. Was Miss Wen Li venting her anger on her behalf just now
She also envied Miss Wen Li who could do whatever she wanted. She seemed not afraid of anything.
