"Second Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle." Chen Lei greeted the other three middle-aged men first, and then whispered to the middle-aged woman: "Mom, he is the one I told you about last time. Li Yuan I met on the road."
"Oh, you are Li Yuan." The middle-aged woman said to Li Yuan with a smile: "My name is Xu Yanqing, and I am Chen Lei's mother. Last time I was on the train, thanks to you helping Lei Lei, thank you so much."
Li Yuan knew that what Xu Yanqing was talking about was that he helped Chen Lei block that big man An Lu's claws on the train. But he didn't feel complacent because of it, but said very modestly: "It's just a little effort, Auntie, you are flattering me."
Seeing that Li Yuan responded well, Xu Yanqing also nodded in satisfaction. And Chen Lei looked at Li Yuan in astonishment, never expecting that this guy who was just staring at the nurse just now became a polite and good boy in a blink of an eye.
However, surprise was nothing but surprise, Chen Lei would not be so reckless as to expose Li Yuan in front of the elders, but started to introduce each other.
Only then did Li Yuan know that standing next to Xu Yanqing, the elegant middle-aged man was Chen Lei's father, Chen Guoping. Both Chen Guoping and his wife are professors at the School of Agriculture and Biology of Zhejiang University, so it's no wonder they both look very bookish.
I don't know whether it's because of my daughter's face, or because of the nature of people, Chen Guoping and his wife are very polite to Li Yuan. Not only greeted him with a smile, but also thanked Li Yuan for coming from Wuxi.
The other three middle-aged people who looked a little like Chen Guoping were Chen Lei's second uncle Chen Guolin, third uncle Chen Guodong, and younger uncle Chen Guowei.
Compared with the approachable Chen Guoping, these three people seemed a little pompous and rude. Although Li Yuan greeted them politely for Chen Lei's sake, the three of them just looked at him sideways, as if they didn't care.
Since Chen Lei's grandfather, Chen Junkun, was very rich, naturally the old man's son would not be far behind. From Li Yuan's point of view, Chen Guolin and others fit his imagination of rich people, so he just smiled lightly at this and didn't take it seriously at all.
Instead, Chen Lei cast a sorry look at Li Yuan, and then asked Xu Yanqing in a low voice: "Mom, how is Grandpa?"
"The doctor is examining him." Xu Yanqing glanced at Li Yuan, who was as if nothing had happened. After a moment of hesitation, she decided to ask her daughter: "Leilei, why did you bring Xiao Li here..."
"Oh, Li Yuan has a good wild ginseng, I want to buy it for my grandpa to nourish my body." Chen Lei told her mother honestly: "Later, grandpa found out about this and said he wanted to see Li Yuan's wild ginseng for himself, so I Just bring him."
"Wild ginseng?" Speaking of which, this is also within the professional scope of Chen Guoping and his wife, so after hearing what his daughter said, Chen Guoping immediately said: "Ginseng contains a variety of ginsenosides, which can be decomposed into many substances that are beneficial to the human body. The ginsenosides of wild ginseng The content is particularly high, and it is indeed very suitable for nourishing your grandfather's body."
Xu Yanqing also nodded lightly and said, "Well, wild ginseng is really suitable for the old man. Although the price will be a bit more expensive, it is worth it."
However, the attitude of Chen Lei's three uncles was exactly the opposite of that of Chen Guoping and his wife. They didn't want to see Li Yuan in the first place, but knowing that he was just a ginseng seller, their attitude became even more unbearable.
The second child, Chen Guolin, glanced at Li Yuan, frowned and said to Chen Guoping: "Brother, I know you are also doing it for my father's good, but even the professional doctor said that his condition is not optimistic, so go find these strange things again." Is it possible to take some herbal medicines?"
"Second brother is right." The fourth child, Chen Guowei, also expressed his opinion immediately: "Everyone knows that old wild ginseng is effective, but the key must be the real thing! They say that there are very few old wild ginseng, why does Lei Lei think? If you want to buy it, you can buy it, isn't that a coincidence?"
Although Chen Guowei didn't look at Li Yuan from the beginning to the end, he was clearly accusing Sang and scolding Huai, saying that Li Yuan was a fake seller. Chen Guolin and Chen Guodong next to him also nodded, expressing their agreement with him.
Chen Guowei's meaning was so obvious that even the carefree Chen Lei could hear it, and couldn't help but stare and said, "Fourth Uncle, what you said is wrong. Back then, Tong Ren Tang accepted two branches of wild ginseng from Li Yuan. This is what I saw with my own eyes, can I also lie to grandpa?"
Seeing that Chen Lei spoke for Li Yuan, Chen Guowei said to Chen Guoping angrily: "Brother, you should also take care of Leilei, I'm her uncle! How can you talk to the elders?"
Chen Guoping is a good old man, so he hurriedly said to Chen Guowei: "Guowei, Lei Lei is also worried about grandpa, don't take it to heart."
Although in Li Yuan's view, Chen Guowei was just making use of the topic, but even if Chen Guoping greeted him, he still refused to let him go. Unexpectedly, he ignored Chen Guoping at all, and just pretended to be annoyed.
And Chen Guodong, who had not spoken all the time, also sighed at this time: "Brother, it is good for Lei Lei to have this kind of filial piety, but even if the wild ginseng is real, the price is really high! Recently, the company's money Very tight, I'm afraid..."
"I'm sorry, it seems that the third child of the Chen family is the most shameless!" Hearing what Chen Guodong said, Li Yuan couldn't help cursing in his heart: "Mr. Chen's car is worth several million, and he can't afford it A piece of wild ginseng! How thick-skinned a man's son is to say such a thing!?"
Now even Chen Guoping felt a little dissatisfied, frowned and said, "A piece of wild ginseng doesn't cost too much, or let me pay for it."
"Brother, it's easy for you to say." Chen Guolin said in a strange way: "Although you and sister-in-law are professors, you can only live on that little salary. You said you used the money to buy wild ginseng, but it's not just Dad The money that was secretly given to you is still the company's money after all!"
Chen Guolin and the others all aimed at the boss Chen Guoping in unison, and Li Yuan couldn't help but secretly said in his heart: "It seems that the Chen family is not peaceful, it must be that those young people think that Mr. Chen is dying, so they are a little unscrupulous, tsk tsk... A grievance between a wealthy family is about to be staged!"
At this time, several doctors came out of the ward inside. Chen Guoping didn't care to say anything more to Chen Lei's uncles, so he hurriedly went up to him and asked, "Director Feng, how is my father?"
"The cancer cells have spread. It's really not optimistic." Feng Yuanmin, the director of the oncology department, shook his head lightly, and then continued in a low voice: "However, the patient's will to survive is very strong, and his mood is relatively cheerful. There should be... two or three more days." About a month."
Although he already knew that his father's condition was not good, but after hearing what the doctor said, Chen Guoping also looked sad. On the contrary, his three younger brothers knew the news and kept exchanging glances with each other, not knowing what they were thinking.
At this moment, a beautiful little nurse came out from the inside, and said crisply to everyone: "Mr. Chen wants me to come out and ask if his granddaughter is back."
