Chapter 2417 Don't Bring Outdoor Items Home Casually

Since ancient times, strange things have often happened to wealthy families. There has always been a folk belief that evil spirits enter their homes. Of course, this also reflects the envy of the poor towards the wealthy.

With the rapid advancement of the times, people no longer mention that.

Young Master Cao is physically weak, and he tends to think about strange and unusual things when things happen. In fact, Bian Mu has always been his guardian angel. When he is upset, he naturally thinks of going to the clinic to sit down, smell the medicinal aroma, absorb some positive energy, dispel evil spirits, and at the very least, find peace of mind.

"What era are we living in? In a metropolis with a population of tens of millions, the energy field, magnetic field, information field, and other such elements have undergone earth-shattering changes. The entire feng shui layout is no longer what it used to be. Besides, your aura is now basically completely independent, and their family is no ordinary family either. It's a marriage of equals! I really can't think of any negative factors that could disrupt the balance of your happy world!"

“Her mother accompanied her to all the major hospitals, but they couldn’t find anything. Besides, it was just after Qingming Festival, and her company has been quite busy lately, so they haven’t had time to pay respects to their ancestors. That’s why I thought of that kind of thing…”

"Hehe...You're overthinking it! Oh! It's almost time, I need to remove the needle from the patient. Why don't you go upstairs and rest for a while, and after get off work come to your family's medicinal cuisine restaurant, we can eat and chat?"

"Alright! I'll make the arrangements. Let's go to the one on Huaxing Lane, it's closer to here. I'll head back to the company now!"

"Be careful!" After saying that, Bian Mu watched Young Master Cao leave and then returned to the van to remove the acupuncture needles.

Before parting, Bian Mu gave a few words of advice to the patient with the eye disease and his family.

"I just saw a female patient. Although you two don't have the same illness, there's no difference in energy compensation! The acupuncture you just had made your eyes feel better, and you'll be able to sleep well at night for at least three months. Your diet will also improve. However, there are always trade-offs. The pressure band around the back of your head has been relieved. According to the principle of energy compensation—and I mean both positive and negative energy compensation—the Qi system below the heart and lungs will soon self-regulate into a temporary small system to achieve a new dynamic balance. Otherwise, you won't be able to walk in a straight line! The difference in vision between your two eyes will further widen, which will cause you to feel more dizzy and have a faster heartbeat. Around 3 a.m., you'll cough for a while, and it won't be quiet. It will keep you from sleeping. Don't panic! Sit on the sofa, be quiet, and let nature take its course. You'll recover quickly. After we reach an agreement, I'll slowly help you recover."

Upon hearing this, the female patient and her entire family nodded repeatedly, without uttering a single unnecessary word.

……

Cao Yueyue is a natural-born businesswoman. Nowadays, her capable assistants have managed the medicinal cuisine restaurant to a very high level. Ordinary wage earners would not consider eating here unless they have special needs at home.

"A simple meal like this costs over 300 yuan on average! President Cao is really generous, you have to admire him!" Bian Mu looked around at the tables and the furnishings and couldn't help but sigh.

"That really diminishes the warmth of everyday life! Sigh! She has to make all the decisions, big and small, there's nothing we can do about it!" Young Master Cao replied with a smile.

"However... if Lijin's economy is doing well, given the current business model... the net profit per month should be at least 30, right?"

"We could have even more! Everyone has elderly people or hospitalized patients in their family! The prescriptions you wrote are so effective. For those high-income earners, who can easily make their families live comfortably with just a little money, why wouldn't they flock here? You are the core intangible asset here. My sister is sending you money and you don't even want it!"

"No reward without merit! Most of the simple prescriptions I provided were adapted from old classics. You're just picking up scraps from the past and still charging money?! The patriarch will punish you sooner or later!"

"Tch! So what if you're high and mighty! Nobody's saying anything about you. What era are we living in? Still talking about being punished by the ancestors? Have you cleared your mouth?"

"Let's go with yam-based products! No mushrooms, wood ear fungus, wild castor beans, or seafood."

"Alright!" With that, Young Master Cao went to the kitchen to set up the dishes. Once the food was served, the two ate and chatted.

"Madam, within the past year, starting from the 3rd of this month and counting backwards, have you had any different life experiences? New hobbies, clothing habits, new friends, etc. are all included. If there have been any major changes to the furnishings at home, you can also tell us!" Bian Mu smiled and gave a few hints.

"Let me think... She's quite lively, and outside of work... she likes to have fun, but I don't think there's been any new change..."

"Think about it again, don't rush! Where did you get this yam? The texture is absolutely fantastic!"

"Oh... It was sent from Old Xu's place in Nanjin. Is it good to eat? I'll take a few boxes with me when I leave later."

"I'm so sorry, but my mom really likes this kind of food, so I feel unworthy to accept it!"

"In that case, why don't we have them send it directly to your hometown? Anyway, I have your hometown address here!" Young Master Cao and Bian Mu were truly getting along well, so when giving gifts, they had to make sure they were delivered properly, showing his sincerity.

"Then I'll trouble your people to make the trip. I just need some yams. Please don't bring a bunch of good stuff to my door like before, which would force my mom to give them away later. The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and the refrigerator is only so big, there's really no room for it!"

"Hehe...No way!"

"Then I'll call home so my mom won't worry." With that, Bian Mu made a phone call to her mother.

After a while, Cao Gongzi had almost finished making arrangements on his end. While eating, he pondered what new ailments his wife had recently developed...

"Oh, right! A while ago, she was getting quite close to a woman from the Xu family in Nanjin. I remember now! She was always bringing over small twigs and plants, as well as pebbles and other small bonsai bases from who-knows-where, and she had them all over the house... Do you think those things are the source of the trouble?!"

Upon hearing this, Bian Mu was momentarily stunned.

"The Xu family?! How old are they?!"

"He's in his early thirties, works in finance, not in medicine or pharmacy. I asked him that, but I can't remember why he asked about that..."

“Hehe… Your family is different from other ordinary families. It’s best not to bring things from the outdoors back to your home easily, because…” At this point, Bian Mu seemed to realize something and stopped talking.

Upon hearing this, Young Master Cao clearly seemed somewhat bothered.

"You mean... those flowers, plants, and bonsai bring evil spirits into the house?!"

"As I just said, times have changed. Feng shui is no longer the same as the old interpretations. Our focus now is on energy, magnetic fields, information... internal and external compensation!"

Upon hearing this, Young Master Cao froze on the spot, unable to understand for a long time.
