A hundred flavors of life

Chapter 1110 Poor kid Wang Yiding! (Please subscribe!)

PS: Xia Tian will go back to my parents' home to celebrate the New Year on New Year's Eve, so I will take a day off. I will update as usual on New Year's Day and wish my brothers a happy new year in advance. Xia Tian wishes my brothers good luck, good fortune, and endless luck in the new year.

Song Qingyuan was embarrassed as he took off his shirt in front of all the people in the Qiao family, half lying and half leaning on the sofa, while Qiao Sanli used her little hands to apply medicinal wine on him and gave him a massage.

Although there were people all around him and reporter Xiao Song could not have any improper thoughts, he was after all a young and energetic guy who had never been in a relationship. If he could remain calm after being massaged by a beautiful girl of the same age with her small hands for thirty minutes, then there must be something wrong with him.

The same was true for Qiao Sanli. When she was learning massage before, she practiced on her two brothers. Now she changed to a strange young man. Even though she studied medicine, she felt a little embarrassed for the first time.

So Hua Shier's move was to plant a seed in the hearts of this young man and woman. Now it seems that the seed has been successfully planted.

Didn’t you see that these two were quite normal at the beginning, but after ten minutes their faces became redder and redder, and after twenty minutes, they were avoiding eye contact and didn’t dare to look at each other.

Hua Shier gave himself a thumbs up in his heart, isn’t that it?

Of course, if the two of them really don't hit it off, Hua Twelve won't force it. There are so many people in the world who are suitable to be good sons-in-law. If Song Qingyuan is not good enough, he can just choose another one. There will always be one who can satisfy both him and Sanli.

Well, that's how he respects his daughter's choice.

Song Qingyuan: Then what’s going on with my stomach displacement?

After the massage, Qiao Sanli said to Song Qingyuan:

"Okay, I'll prescribe you a medicine to stabilize your internal organs later. You can go back and buy it and boil it yourself. You can drink it for a week!"

Song Qingyuan grinned: "Do you want to drink herbal medicine? I have been afraid of drinking herbal medicine since I was a child!"

Hua Twelve smiled and said:

"Why are you still drinking herbal medicine? With your symptoms, drinking herbal medicine is the second choice. The first choice is still massage. From tomorrow on, come over after get off work and let our Sanli give you a massage. If you do it twice, your illness will be cured without any medicine!"

Sanli blushed but didn't say anything. She was going to be a Chinese medicine practitioner in the future, and things like this would be common. If she didn't face it because she was embarrassed, then why did she study medicine?

Song Qingyuan hesitated for a moment, then thanked him and agreed awkwardly.

In the next two days, Song Qingyuan came to receive treatment as soon as he got off work, and also had a meal at Qiao's house.

Two days later, the treatment was over.

On the third day, Qiao Sanli was about to go back to the old house for dinner after school. As soon as she walked out of the gate of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, she saw Song Qingyuan holding a bouquet of flowers and coming up to her with a silly smile on his face:

"Sanli, you've worked so hard to treat my illness these past two days. I want to thank you. I hope you can give me a chance to treat you to a meal and a movie!"

As he said this, he handed the flowers to Qiao Sanli with an expectant look on his face.

Giving flowers to girls was not a common thing in the early 1990s, and it quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding students. Qiao Sanli saw that her classmates were also watching, and her face was burning. She stomped her feet, snatched the flowers, pulled Song Qingyuan and ran away.

In the blink of an eye, another two months passed. After these two months of getting along, Qiao Sanli and Song Qingyuan were very satisfied with each other and had a good impression of each other, and finally confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend.

It just so happened that He Qing had finished filming his scenes in Yangzhou and returned to Jinling. In order to celebrate the fact that his second and third sons had found a partner, especially one that satisfied him, Hua Twelve asked the children to bring their partners home for a family dinner.

So Qiao Yicheng brought Xiang Nanfang, Qiao Erqiang brought Chang Xingyu, and Qiao Sanli brought Song Qingyuan to the old house on this day.

Chang Xingyu sent a box of tea:

"Uncle, I heard from Erqiang that you like to drink Biluochun. This is this year's new tea. Try it and see if it suits your taste!"

Qiao Sanli poked Song Qingyuan, who also stepped forward with a smile on his face:

"Uncle, I saw that you like smoking, so I brought you a box of Cuban cigars. I heard that this stuff doesn't enter the lungs. You can smoke this in the future, which will be healthier than smoking!"

Hua Twelve smiled like an auntie: "You guys, just come here, why do you need any gifts?"

Qiao Yicheng suggested:

"Dad, you see Erqiang and Sanli's girlfriends are here today, why don't you cook for us and show us your cooking skills? I want to eat the braised lion's head you make!"

Although Qiao Erqiang's cooking skills are also very good, the children of the Qiao family all agree that Hua Shier's cooking is even better than Erqiang's.

Qiao Sanli also said: "Yes, Dad, don't let my second brother cook today, you can show off your skills and let Qingyuan taste your cooking skills!"

Hua Twelve rolled his eyes, and the air in his cotton-padded jacket began to leak. He chuckled:

"You guys really don't know how to make gold and jade. I swear to heaven that Erqiang's craftsmanship has surpassed mine long ago."

Boom!

A bolt of lightning struck the electric pole outside the Qiao family's old house, sparks flew everywhere, and everyone was startled.

He Qing quickly went to hug his two little sons who were crying out of fear.

Everyone else looked at Hua Twelve with strange expressions. After all, it was too much of a coincidence that thunder struck right after the old man made his oath.

Hua Twelve was depressed: "Can you believe me if I say it's a coincidence?"

A thunderstorm struck during a drought and damaged the electrical circuits in Shamao Lane. Fortunately, it happened during the day, otherwise we would have to have the dinner party by lighting candles at night.

Hua Shier did not spoil the fun and cooked a table of dishes himself. Chang Xingyu and Song Qingyuan, who tasted his cooking for the first time, all had their eyes lit up and gave him a thumbs up.

While I was eating, I heard someone knocking on the door, the sound was very urgent, and accompanied by a voice shouting:

"Brother Qiao, open the door quickly and save people!"

Qiao Erqiang was sitting near the main room door. When he heard the sound, he quickly ran to open the yard door. Others also got up and followed him out to see what was going on.

As soon as the gate opened, Aunt Wu from next door came in with a few neighbors from Shamao Lane and a man dressed as an electrician, carrying a young man.

"Erqiang, where is your father?"

Before Aunt Wu finished her words, she saw Hua Twelve and Qiao Yicheng and quickly greeted them:

"Brother Qiao, Yicheng, take a look at this man."

Qiao Yicheng stepped forward quickly: "Aunt Wu, what happened?"

Aunt Wu explained, "The electric pole at the entrance of the alley was struck by lightning. The power company said it can't be repaired until the afternoon. Master Wu across the street invited an electrician from the machine repair shop to come over and take a look."

Qiao Yicheng was startled: "Is this an electric shock?"

He quickly called out, "Hurry up and carry the man into the house. I'll give him an injection to give him first aid!"

Aunt Wu said quickly:

"It's not electricity, and this guy is not an electrician. He just came here to help the electrician get tools!"

The middle-aged electrician who came over said:

"This is our factory's mechanic. I was the only one on duty at our factory's substation today, so I asked him to help. He was fine just now, but he fainted just like that!"

Aunt Wu said to Hua Twelve, "Brother Qiao, everyone in our neighborhood knows that your family has good medical skills. Isn't this child sent here? Hurry up and take a look at what's wrong with this child!"

Hua Shier asked someone to carry the patient into the house. Qiao Yicheng didn't even bother to eat and started to examine the other person.

Qiao Sanli's eyes lit up, thinking this was an opportunity to practice, and she quickly said:

"Brother, let me check him out. This is a good opportunity for me to practice!"

Hua Shier had already recognized who the unconscious person was, and thought that the world's mistakes had begun to be corrected again. The unconscious person was none other than Wang Yiding, Qiao Sanli's husband in the original plot.

How could the world correct its mistakes when Hua Twelve was here? He immediately spoke up to stop Qiao Sanli:

"Sanli, saving lives is like putting out a fire, don't mess around, I'll diagnose him myself!"

As luck would have it, just as Hua Shier put his hand on Wang Yiding's wrist, the latter's eyelids moved and he woke up.

Hua Twelve sneered in his heart. If he had not interfered just now, the first person Wang Yiding saw when he woke up would be Qiao Sanli. If the world had not corrected its course, such a coincidence would not have happened.

After Wang Yiding woke up, he saw Hua Twelve checking his pulse. There were so many people around him, so he asked in confusion:

"I, what's wrong with me?" The electrician who came over said:

"Yiding, you fainted under the electric pole just now. I was shocked. Why don't you let Teacher Qiao take a look at you and find out what's wrong with you?"

Wang Yiding understood what happened and wanted to stand up:

"I'm fine, I'll be fine in a minute."

Hua Twelve pressed his hand and shouted softly, "Stay still!"

He used the "Soul Transferring Technique" from the "Nine Yin Manual" to calm the mind. As expected, Wang Yiding did not stand up and said weakly:

"Thank you very much, Teacher Qiao!"

After a while, Hua Twelve frowned slightly, withdrew his hand and said:

"You are malnourished. How come it's not a famine now? Are there still people who don't have food to eat?"

As he spoke, without waiting for Wang Yiding to say anything, he reached out and lifted the other person's shirt, revealing his chest and abdomen underneath. The onlookers all looked incredulous when they saw this.

Wang Yiding's chest and abdomen were bony, and his ribs were clearly visible.

Hua Shier was also surprised. In the original plot, although Wang Yiding ate steamed buns for lunch, he was not so miserable. But after thinking about it, he understood.

In the original plot, Qiao Sanli saw that Wang Yiding was not full at noon, so she shared the food she brought with Wang Yiding and even picked out meat specifically for him.

Now that Qiao Sanli is no longer caring for him, he definitely doesn't have enough to eat for lunch. After so many years, it's reasonable for him to become like this.

The electrician who brought Wang Yiding here asked in confusion:

"Wang Yiding, why are you so thin?"

Wang Yiding smiled bitterly: "I, I was born with a bad physique and can't gain weight."

"fart!"

Hua Twelve directly exposed his lies:

"Wang Yiding, right? Your condition is obviously caused by long-term malnutrition. If you dare to say that you fainted because of your poor physical condition, it means that my diagnosis, Qiao Zuwang, is wrong, and it will destroy the reputation of my Qiao family!"

"Let's call the police right now and have Uncle Hat take you to a big hospital for a checkup. If I'm wrong, I, Qiao Zuwang, will compensate you 10,000 yuan. If you lie and destroy my reputation, my Qiao family will fight you to the end!"

Aunt Wu and the others advised: "Brother Qiao, don't be angry, tell the truth to this child quickly, don't ruin their reputation."

Wang Yiding saw Hua Twelve's outburst and realized that he had said something wrong, so he quickly said:

"Teacher Qiao, please don't be angry. I said the wrong thing. You are right. I didn't eat lunch today and I fainted from hunger."

Hua Shiyi waved his hand:

"No, you didn't have lunch, but a normal person wouldn't feel hungry after skipping a meal. You're suffering from malnutrition due to not having enough food. Why don't you pay the workers at your machine repair shop?"

The electrician interrupted and said, "How could it be possible that they didn't pay? Yiding's monthly salary seems to be 178 yuan!"

Hua Shier looked at Wang Yiding and said, "178 yuan is enough for you to eat meat every day. Why are you so hungry?"

Wang Yiding had a bitter expression and explained: "No, nothing, I just don't have a big appetite."

Hua Shier ordered Qiao Erqiang: "Give him some food, and he will be fine once he is full!"

After saying that, he turned around, picked up the phone on the coffee table and dialed:

"Police station? I want to call the police. I suspect someone is gambling, or is persecuting the workers in the machine repair factory."

Everyone was stunned, not understanding why Hua Twelve had called the police.

Wang Yiding also said it was a misunderstanding and didn't want to bother Uncle Hat anymore.

Hua Twelve hung up the phone, pointed at Wang Yiding and said:

"He's skinny as a bag of bones. In this case, he either lost his salary in gambling, or someone took his salary away, leaving him with no food to eat. In either case, this is a crime!"

Wang Yiding explained a few words and wanted Hua Shier to call the police station to explain and he didn't need to come.

Hua Twelve shouted, "Shut up and eat your meal first. If you break the law, I'll arrest you. If others break the law, I'll arrest them!"

Qiao Erqiang served Wang Yiding a bowl of rice with some fried vegetables on top, a combination of meat and vegetables. Wang Yiding couldn't refuse, so after being persuaded by everyone, he had to thank them, took the rice and started eating in small bites.

Wang Dingyi had never eaten such delicious food before. His nose felt sore and the grown-up young man actually shed tears. He ate while crying.

Everyone could see that something was wrong and the child was so upset.

When the police arrived, Wang Yiding finally told him where his salary went:

"My mother told me to leave my salary passbook with her, and she would save it for me to use when I get married. My mother gave me thirty cents a day for lunch, which was only enough to buy a steamed bun and some pickles. When I came out this morning, my mother said that I was on duty on the weekend and didn't work, so she didn't give me lunch money. I just fainted in the sun. There's really no need to call the police about this."

Hua Twelve sneered: "Even if you don't eat enough at noon, you won't be skinny. Let me ask you, why don't you eat more in the morning and evening?"

Uncle Hat nodded and turned to ask Wang Yiding:

"Is your family in need?"

Wang Yiding's eyes were red. "It's not difficult. I just have a younger brother at home. He eats a lot. My mother said that as the older brother, I should give in to my younger brother, so I eat less!"

Hua Twelve was a famous person in Jinling City. He was familiar with the police station in Shamao Lane. He said to the two uncles in hats who were on duty:

"Lao Zhang, Lao Chen, this kid only makes 178 yuan a month, which is not a low salary. He is starving to the point of being skin and bones. I think there must be something fishy going on. I suggest you investigate where his salary went. Even if his mother keeps it for safekeeping, how can a mother let her son starve to this extent and not even give him money for food!"

Wang Yiding waved his hands repeatedly: "My mother is doing this for my own good. She said I should save a little, so I will save a little!"

Hua Twelve was too lazy to talk nonsense with him: "Lao Zhang, Lao Chen, I'm asking you to do this. Go and see if there is any money in his passbook!"

The two uncles in hats nodded in agreement and took Wang Yiding to his home.

Wang Yiding's home was not far away, just two streets away from Shamao Lane, and many of his good neighbors spontaneously went over to watch.

Hua Shier's family continued to eat. In the afternoon, Aunt Wu from next door came again:

"Brother Qiao, guess what? Wang Yiding's mother is such a piece of shit. She used all of her eldest son's salary as a betrothal gift to her youngest son, leaving only five dollars in the salary passbook."

"I also saw her little son. He looked rosy-cheeked and energetic, unlike Wang Yiding who looked like he hadn't had enough to eat. Tell me, how could there be such a biased mother?"

Hua Twelve asked what the uncle in the hat said, and Aunt Wu smiled and said:

"What else can I say? They are mother and son after all. The mother is partial to me, so Comrade Hat can only let it go and criticize them!"

Hua Shier shook his head. It probably wouldn't have any effect. Wang Yiding's mother would probably continue to cause trouble.

He was right. Wang Yiding's mother continued to make trouble. However, what Hua Twelve did not expect was that she actually made trouble for him.

Early the next morning, someone blocked the door of the Qiao family's old house and shouted and cursed.

When He Qing opened the gate, he saw an old lady at the door jumping up and down and cursing:

"Mr. Qiao, you are meddling in other people's business. You don't need to be involved in our family affairs. You are so shameless."

Seeing He Qing coming out, the old lady went to He Qing:

"You're a vixen, you're a celebrity, take care of your man"

Hua Shier came out with a bucket of slop that had not been thrown away in the morning. He bypassed He Qing and poured it directly on the old woman, soaking her head and face.

Thanks to: 08a, Xiao Xiaohu from the Demon World, and Chu Ritian, the free and easy immortal, for their rewards. Thanks to the brothers who voted for monthly tickets and recommendation tickets. Thank you very much.
