Chapter 353: No One Knows a Father Better than His Son and Vice Dean Wang
Middle Court.
Widow Meng put her hands on her waist, looked like a shrew, and was yelling at Sha Zhu:
"Silly Zhu, are you blind? You rubbed off my freshly washed clothes before they were even dried.
Tell me, did you do this on purpose to take advantage of my husband not being at home? You bastard, if you don’t explain yourself clearly today, I will never let you go.”
On the opposite side, Sha Zhu had an innocent expression on his face, holding a half-dry piece of clothing in his hand, standing there not knowing what to say.
The truth is that Meng Li not only speaks in an unpleasant way, but also speaks so quickly that it is impossible for people to get a word in.
At this time.
He Yushui, who had taken her children back to her mother's home to visit her brother, sister-in-law and two nephews, heard someone calling her brother's name outside and hurried out of the bedroom.
She happened to see Widow Meng scolding her brother, so she went up to her and started arguing with her.
As an intellectual with only a high school education, he is no match for Meng Li, who has been hanging out with middle-aged women for many years.
A few words left her speechless, her face filled with anger, but she could do nothing about it.
He Yushui has never cursed anyone since he was a child, and he even seldom uses dirty words. He can be said to be a weakling, even weaker than a weakling.
next to.
But Sha Zhu was not happy.
If Meng Li just scolded him, he would at most make a few remarks in rebuttal, and if he couldn't win the argument, he would just endure it silently.
After all, as someone who has been exposed to male chauvinism since childhood, he has always believed that a good man does not fight with women.
But when he saw his sister being wronged, he completely exploded.
This sister was his Achilles' heel. He Daqing ran away with the White Widow when he was eighteen years old. He Yushui was only eleven or twelve years old at that time. Since then, the two have depended on each other.
Now Meng Li actually pointed at her sister and scolded her, which made him furious:
"Widow Meng, if you scold my sister again, I will be rude to you."
Meng Li's anger had already subsided a lot, and she also knew the principle of knowing when to quit. Anyway, after experiencing these things, no one in the hospital should dare to mess with her again.
Who would have thought that Sha Zhu would suddenly point at her nose and call her a widow. This exposure of her shortcomings made her furious again.
So she jumped up and ran towards Sha Zhu, stretching out her hands to grab his face, cursing as she did so:
"You stupid bastard, who are you calling a widow? Your whole family is widows.
Also, did your father, He Daqing, run away with a widow?
He is really wise. He would rather run away with a widow and raise someone else's child than have you two."
Sha Zhu's face was grabbed twice, and the sharp nails directly cut several deep and long cuts on his face.
The burning pain made him retreat backwards with a grimace in his teeth, unable to resist for a moment.
It's not that he didn't dare to resist, but the other party was a woman. It would not be glorious if he won the fight. He might even be taught a lesson by people on the street. It would be even more shameful if he lost.
Several neighbors in the yard stood around watching the fun, but no one dared to step forward to separate them. They could only try to persuade them verbally.
Wang Mengde and He Shengnan walked out of the living room and saw this scene. After mourning for Sha Zhu for a while, they winked at their wives.
He Shengnan got the signal, took a few steps forward, and while trying to persuade her, she moved quickly and grabbed Widow Meng's arms, making her unable to move for a moment.
Meng Li was enjoying the catch when someone suddenly grabbed her arm. She opened her eyes and turned around to curse, but when she saw it was He Shengnan, she swallowed the words.
You can offend anyone in this courtyard, except Wang Mengde’s family.
This was the experience she summarized after her investigation before coming to the hospital.
"Stop fighting. If there's any misunderstanding, just talk it out."
Seeing that she stopped struggling, He Shengnan let go of her hand and said in a light tone.
She is not fond of Widow Meng.
"Sister-in-law, you came at the right time. Please judge for me. That bastard Shazhu actually called me a widow..."
Regardless of the fact that she was actually older than He Shengnan, Meng Li lowered herself and began to complain.
"When the court hears a case, they always go to the first and second uncles. They are highly respected and will handle it for you."
The farce ended quickly!
In the living room of Shazhu's house.
Sha Zhu was laughing while applying medicine on his face in front of the mirror.
Fortunately, Wang Mengde’s family has a magical ointment that can remove scars, otherwise his face would be disfigured.
Although it doesn't make much difference whether you are disfigured or not, it will just make you more ugly in a different form.
After applying the medicine, Sha Zhu still said indignantly:
"Oh my, this widow Meng is so fierce. Whoever marries her will be unlucky."
As he was talking, he thought of his mortal enemy Xu Damao who had taken over, and he started to laugh again, the wound on his face moving, and he began to grimace again.
"Xu Damao is very lucky after he comes out of prison.
Not only did he marry a fierce wife, but he also had three more children, so he now has both a son and a daughter."
Shazhu's mouth was about to be crooked with joy.
He and Xu Damao had quarreled before, and the other party often brought up the fact that his father He Daqing was forming cliques. Every time this was brought up, he was at a disadvantage.
"Silly Zhu, don't be happy yet. I just saw Yu Shui crying very sadly. Go to the next door and comfort her."
Wang Mengde reminded.
When Widow Meng was arguing just now, she mentioned that He Daqing ran away with the widow and didn't want the two siblings anymore.
This immediately reminded He Yushui of her childhood, and she felt very sad for a moment.
"Alas, it's no use for me to persuade her, she just misses my dad.
Ever since she gave birth to the child, she often brought up this matter unintentionally, asking when she could let my father come back to see his grandson and granddaughter.
You said my father was really cruel. He ran away with the widow for so long and never came back to see us.
He never even wrote to me. If he hadn't sent me ten dollars every month, I would have thought he had an accident."
Sha Zhu said somewhat depressed.
To be honest, Wang Mengde also admires He Daqing a little.
For the sake of a woman, a widow at that, he actually gave up his home, went from the capital to Baoding, and never came back once. He was so cruel.
Not raising his own children, but raising several children for the White Widow, can be considered "true love".
"By the way, Meng De, you have a lot of ideas, can you think of a way to get my dad to come back?
I definitely wouldn't want him to come back, but Yu Shui missed him so much, and I didn't want her to be sad like this every day."
Sha Zhu stared at Wang Mengde with a melancholy look on his face and said.
He is trying all kinds of treatments for his illness.
"Silly Zhu, there are ways to do it, but I can't guarantee whether it will work or not."
Wang Mengde said with a smile.
He was not willing to give advice just for Sha Zhu's sake, but because of He Yushui, the little girl who used to blush whenever she saw him. She was really pitiful.
"Meng De, do you really have a solution?"
Sha Zhu asked in disbelief.
He Daqing hasn't been back for many years, but he is determined to live in Baoding for the rest of his life. He has thought of many ways before, but none of them worked.
He even took He Yushui to Baoding at that time, but in the end they didn't even meet.
From then on, he completely gave up.
He didn't expect Wang Mengde to be so confident, which surprised him.
"Well, I remember there was a man in the publicity department of the steel mill who lived next door to the White Widow.
You can contact him later and ask him to bring something back when he goes back to his hometown. After your dad uses it, he will most likely come back. "Wang Mengde said bluntly.
As he said this, he pretended to take out a bottle of "Palace Emperor Pills" from his pocket.
Currently.
Although the production of "Palace Emperor Pills" is increasing, the overseas market has also been opened up more widely, and the demand has also increased a lot.
This has resulted in this drug still being in short supply in the country, and many people cannot buy it even if they pay a high price on the black market.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of this.
There is indeed a person in the publicity department of the steel rolling mill who is my father's neighbor. I will ask him to take a day off tomorrow and go back to help me deliver this bottle of medicine.
Once my dad takes it, he will definitely want this medicine for a long time. He definitely can’t buy it in Baoding, so he has to come to me for it.”
Sha Zhu said excitedly.
He thought this was a great idea and that it had a very good chance of success.
No one knows the father better than his son. He knows his father's character very clearly.
Once you have seen the magic of this medicine, you will definitely come back at all costs to get it from him.
At that time, he would use this medicine as a threat and his father would have no choice but to take the bait. Maybe he could take the opportunity to get away from the White Widow and live a peaceful life.
More than ten days later.
When Wang Mengde returned home from work in the evening, he heard a shocking news from his mother Ran Xiaomei.
He Daqing returned to the hospital this afternoon!
Of course, he didn't move back from the White Widow's house, but came back temporarily. From the tone of his voice, he would go back to Baoding early tomorrow morning to continue recruiting gangs.
"I don't know what Old He is thinking. He doesn't care about his children. Even now that he has grandchildren, he has no intention of changing his mind. He is only focused on finding the White Widow."
While having dinner, Ran Xiaomei said with a pout.
Just now when she met He Daqing, she gave him some indirect advice, saying that he was already so old and it was time for him to settle down and live a stable life.
Unfortunately, she could see that Lao He was determined to continue to be entangled with the White Widow.
"Old He was like this when he was young. As the saying goes, it's hard to change a person's nature, but it's easy to change a country. I don't think he will be able to change this bad habit in his lifetime."
Wang Hao whispered aside.
He and He Daqing have known each other for more than 20 years, and their children were born on the same day of the same month of the same year, so they have a good relationship.
In the past, the two of them often drank and boasted together, and understood each other's temper and character.
"Humph, what do you mean by human nature cannot be changed? People like this should be arrested and sent to jail for a few years and they will behave themselves."
Ran Xiaomei said with hatred. She was more traditional and usually looked down on this kind of people.
The main room in the middle courtyard.
In the living room of Shazhu's house.
The deaf old lady sat at the top, eating meat while cursing He Daqing for being heartless.
Next to her sat He Daqing and Yi Zhonghai.
He Daqing had a smile on his face and let the old lady scold him without saying anything back.
On the other side, Yi Zhonghai had a complicated expression.
In this courtyard, if we were to say who least wants He Daqing to come back, it would be him.
He had originally planned that the couple would rely on Sha Zhu for their retirement.
Unexpectedly, such a good situation was broken. Once Old He comes back, his retirement plan will be ruined.
"Lao He, what are your plans when you come back this time?"
Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but ask.
If he doesn't figure out the specific situation today, he will definitely not be able to sleep at night.
"Well, I came back this time to see Yu Shui and the kids. I feel relieved if they are all fine.
I have to go back to Baoding tomorrow morning, but I will come back every now and then to take a look."
He Daqing said with a smile.
To be honest, if Sha Zhu hadn't asked someone to send him a bottle of "Palace Emperor Pills", after using it with the mentality of giving it a try, Bai Guafu would have been very satisfied.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have the chance to come back and take a look.
This time, it was only after he had to coax and persuade the White Widow, and used magic medicine as temptation, that she reluctantly agreed to let him come back.
Hearing He Daqing say that he would still stay in Baoding in the future, Yi Zhonghai was delighted and stopped talking.
It was the deaf old lady who started cursing again, and He Yushui also showed an unhappy look on her face.
midnight.
In the side room, He Daqing sat by the bed, smoking a cigarette and asked:
"Silly Zhu, where did you buy the "Palace Emperor Pills" from? Will you be able to buy them again in the future?
I went to dozens of hospitals and pharmacies in Baoding but couldn’t find it. This medicine is so amazing, so powerful, it’s simply a miracle drug.”
After taking it once, the man in his fifties fell deeply in love with this little pill that could restore him to his youthful state.
He took the bottle given by Sha Zhu for five consecutive days. During these days, he was very proud of himself in front of the White Widow.
Unfortunately, after five days, he ran out of medicine.
Then it was returned to its original form.
“This medicine was developed by Meng De, and he gave me a few bottles privately. Now it is in serious shortage all over the country and is basically unavailable.
If you want it in the future, come back more often to see the rain and the children, and I will give you three or five bottles each time."
Sha Zhu explained in a low voice.
He planned to use this medicine to keep He Daqing hanging.
"That kid from Old Wang's family developed it? He's so amazing now."
He Daqing said in surprise, and then he asked again: "By the way, today I saw someone living in the backyard of Old Xu's house, why don't I know him?"
"That's Xu Damao's daughter-in-law. She was a widow with three children."
Speaking of this, Sha Zhu became interested and told the whole situation in detail.
When He Daqing heard that Meng Li was a widow, his eyes lit up instantly.
Hello widow!
the next day.
Wang Mengde pushed his bicycle into the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Just as he arrived next to the bicycle shed, he happened to meet Zhang Qiaoyu.
"Good morning, Vice President Wang!"
Seeing her senior brother, Zhang Qiaoyu said with a mischievous smile.
"Why, you don't recognize me as your senior brother? Now there is no one else, so what title do you call me?"
Wang Mengde pretended to be angry and said this.
"Hehehe, didn't my senior brother just become the vice-president?"
Zhang Qiaoyu explained with a smile.
Yesterday, Wang Mengde’s appointment was finally confirmed and he became the vice president of the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
He is also the youngest vice president since the establishment of the institute.
