Chapter 142 It's all fate
Zhao Tianchuan turned to look at Linglong and continued...
"Your father and I, along with your uncles and aunts, came all the way to the capital. We made a living carrying goods at the docks. Back then, when we first arrived in the capital, prices were high, and it was difficult to make a living."
I heard that the food at Happiness Inn was cheap, so I took your uncles and aunts there for a meal. That's how I met Miss Li.
Miss Li also helped her father and uncles get a discount on accommodation, so they now had a place to stay in the capital.
Later, Miss Li's orchard needed someone to look after it. There was food and lodging, good pay, and little work, so your father brought your uncles and aunts to stay at the orchard.
Whenever I had time, I would search for you, but after so long, I still couldn't find you. Now that I've found you, a huge weight has finally been lifted from my heart.
After Zhao Tianchuan finished speaking, he wiped away his tears.
A rare glimpse of a tough guy's tender side
Li Shuchen comforted him, saying, "Now that the person has been found, cherish them."
Zhao Tianchuan nodded: "Miss Li is right. Wufeng Mountain is so far from the capital. How did Linglong manage to get here?"
Zhao Linglong: "After Linglong got separated from her father that day, she secretly returned to the village, only to find it desolate and deserted. So she headed north."
Linglong earned a living by treating patients using her medical skills.
The journey was alright.
Later, due to continuous wars and an increase in the number of refugees, Linglong came to the capital with them.
The city gates of the capital were already closed, so Linglong couldn't get in and had to stay at the gates.
Later, Miss Li distributed porridge and prepared medicinal soup at the city gate to help us prevent the spread of disease. Seeing that Linglong knew some medicine, she wanted to take Linglong into the inn to treat the guests.
Besides
Furthermore, Dr. Sun from Qingde Medical Clinic wanted to take Linglong as his apprentice and asked her to come to his clinic to teach me medicine.
Linglong now lives at the Happiness Inn and studies medicine under Doctor Sun at Qingde Medical Clinic.
Zhao Tianchuan nodded with relief upon hearing this: "Good, good, good, it's good that you're alright."
After learning what had happened, Li Shuchen couldn't help but sigh, "Now that you and your daughter both have jobs, just live your lives well."
Zhao Tianchuan nodded: "Of course."
"Linglong, were you just doing something for Miss Li? Father, can you help me?"
Zhao Linglong: "Miss said there are flying insects in the orchard, and brought Linglong to take a look. All we need to do is burn some herbs, which Linglong has already brought."
Zhao Tianchuan: "Give it to your father, I'll do it. You keep Miss Li company and talk to her."
Zhao Linglong: "Father, this is not difficult; Linglong can do it."
Zhao Tianchuan stood up immediately and asked, "Where are the herbs?"
Unable to refuse, Zhao Linglong had no choice but to give the items to Zhao Tianchuan.
Zhao Tianchuan went out to burn herbs
Li Shuchen said, "Your father certainly dotes on you."
Zhao Linglong laughed and said, "My father loves me the most. He works hard in the village from dawn till dusk planting grain, sleeping at midnight and getting up at dawn."
She finally managed to sell some money, but she wouldn't buy herself a new piece of clothing, only wanting to buy medical books and a teacher for Linglong.
Hearing this, Li Shuchen sighed, "These days, you're all doing quite well; life is getting better every day."
Zhao Linglong suddenly stood up and said, "My father and I are able to live such a good life thanks to you, Miss. Please accept another bow from Linglong."
Li Shuchen quickly helped her up, saying, "Alright, I didn't do anything. I can only say that you and your daughter are destined to be together."
Li Shuchen helped Linglong up, and then another voice sounded from outside.
"Where is Linglong? Where is Linglong?"
A loud voice grew closer.
Zhao Linglong turned around upon hearing the voice.
"Uncle Erhu"
Erhu entered the house and exclaimed happily, "Linglong, she really is exquisite!"
Zhao Linglong smiled and said, "Uncle Erhu, it's me."
Erhu chuckled: "It's good that you found me, it's good that you found me. You have no idea, your big brother only sleeps two or three hours a day (4-6 hours), just to find you a little longer."
The uncle couldn't persuade him, nor could he change his mind, so he could only give the elder brother some money so that it would be easier for him to contact you.
Every time my older brother comes back, he has a long face, and I know then that he hasn't been able to find you again.
Today I saw him happily burning herbs, and when I asked him, I learned that he had found you. I couldn't resist coming in to see you.
Erhu was on the verge of tears as he spoke.
Zhao Linglong watched Uncle Erhu cry, and just as she had stopped crying, tears began to flow again.
Seeing this, Li Shuchen said, "Alright, everyone's been found, so don't be sad. Let's have lunch here. I'll have Granny Fang cook a few more dishes so you can all get together."
Erhu nodded and said, "Okay, I, Erhu, will go help."
Li Shuchen: "Hmm"
Li Shuchen went to the kitchen and instructed Granny Fang to cook more dishes.
After cooking the dishes, Zhao Tianchuan was also finished.
The kitchen at Erguozhuang was bustling with activity at lunchtime, everyone was in high spirits, especially Zhao Tianchuan.
Taking turns accepting toasts from the brothers
"Big brother, congratulations on finding Linglong! Cheers!"
Zhao Tianchuan grinned: "Go for it!"
He drank one glass of wine after another.
His mouth stretched into a wide grin.
After one round, I drank more than ten bowls of wine. Despite drinking so much, my face was only slightly flushed, and I was in great spirits.
Li Shuchen clicked his tongue in amazement; his alcohol tolerance was truly impressive.
After several rounds of drinks, Li Shuchen and Zhao Linglong were also full.
Zhao Tianchuan's face was flushed from drinking, and he kept talking to his brothers. It was the first time Li Shuchen had ever seen Zhao Tianchuan so talkative.
Li Shuchen: "Linglong, come with me to Sanguozhuang again."
Zhao Linglong: Okay
Zhao Linglong got up and walked to Zhao Tianchuan's side, saying
"Father, I should go now."
Zhao Tianchuan paused, his hand holding the wine bowl still, and replied, "Alright, you must listen to Miss Li. I'll come see you when I have time."
Zhao Linglong nodded, took a pill out of her bag, and handed it to Zhao Tianchuan.
"Dad, this is a hangover pill. Take it and go to sleep; it will make you feel better."
Zhao Tianchuan took it and replied, "Father understands."
Li Shuchen brought Linglong to
Sanguoyuan
Upon entering the manor, one sees colorful clothes.
Caiyi looked at Zhao Linglong and asked curiously.
"I've never seen this girl before. What's her name? How old is she? Whose family does she belong to?"
Zhao Linglong looked at the pretty young girl standing in front of her, her colorful clothes fluttering, and replied...
"My name is Linglong, I'm fifteen years old, I live at the Happiness Inn, and I'm an apprentice of Doctor Sun at Qingde Medical Clinic."
Caiyi nodded and said, "My name is Caiyi, and I'm fifteen years old this year."
Are you Dr. Sun's apprentice?
Miss Li said that Dr. Sun's medical skills are superb, and since you are his apprentice, your medical skills must be very impressive.
Zhao Linglong humbly replied, "My medical skills are mediocre; I still need to study diligently."
Caiyi asked in confusion, "There are no sick people in the orchard, so why is Miss Linglong here?"
Zhao Linglong replied playfully, "Miss Li brought me here to treat these buzzing little flying insects."
Caiyi suddenly realized: "Oh, I see. So if I ever have a headache or fever in the future, will you come and help me take care of it?"
Zhao Linglong: "Yes, I will come to check on anyone in the inn or the orchard who is feeling unwell."
Caiyi smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, I'll come to you if I ever get sick in the future."
Zhao Linglong replied, "Okay, I will do my best to treat you."
Li Shuchen watched the two little girls in front of him, asking and answering questions, finding them extremely cute, and then said...
"You two are about the same age and get along well."
Caiyi smiled and said, "Yes, I took a liking to Miss Linglong at first sight. I suppose we are destined to be together."
Zhao Linglong: "Me too, I think Caiyi is really cute."
