Awakening to cultivate immortality, he impulsively marries a beautiful CEO on the day of his divorce
Chapter 209 The Smiling Tiger
Chen Yi smiled.
He would never treat just anyone if he were outside.
However, everyone here is a neighbor or family member. Although they may gossip a bit, they usually look out for each other.
He remembered that when he was twelve years old, he suddenly developed a high fever at night. His father had difficulty walking, and it was this second uncle who carried him to the township health center overnight.
Mutual help and assistance have always been a characteristic of rural clan society, but now people are atomized and clan concepts are gradually fading.
This is actually not a good thing.
Atomized societies benefit capital but not ordinary people.
More importantly, Chen Yi wanted to make his father proud, so he wanted to let these neighbors and relatives see the abilities of the young man who built the country.
"Okay, Second Uncle, sit down. I'll give you a massage, and I promise it will never hurt again."
Uncle's illness is lumbar muscle strain, which is nothing to Chen Yi.
My second uncle sat upright on the stool, his face full of anticipation.
Chen Yi pretended to massage his waist a few times, using his innate fire energy to clear the meridians and his innate wood energy to repair the damage.
Less than two minutes later, Chen Yi withdrew his hand and said:
"Alright, check if it still hurts."
My second uncle moved around a bit and was immediately overjoyed.
"Hey! It really doesn't hurt anymore!"
He bent over and twisted his waist repeatedly, more agile than a young person.
"Amazing, even more agile than when he was young."
Everyone was both surprised and delighted to see this.
"Xiao Yi, can menstrual cramps be cured?"
"Xiao Yi, can rheumatoid arthritis be cured?"
"Xiao Yi, can bronchitis be cured?"
……
The neighbors all gathered around, chattering amongst themselves.
Rural people work hard all their lives, and as they get older, they often develop various stubborn ailments.
The hospital couldn't cure it, so I could only grit my teeth and endure it. This is like seeing a savior.
Chen Jianguo was extremely proud. "My son is such a source of pride!"
"It can be cured, it can cure everything, hahaha!"
Zhang Guangying slapped him on the shoulder.
"Do you want to work your son to death?"
He quickly said to the neighbors, "Don't worry, everyone. Xiao Yi will be staying at home for several days. He's quite tired after arriving home. Please come find him again tomorrow."
My son hasn't even had a chance to catch his breath since he got home. Treating so many patients must be exhausting.
That makes sense.
Aunt Jia quickly said, "Xiao Yi drove for several hours from Jiangning. Let him rest and come again tomorrow."
"Yes, yes, everyone, let's go back first."
Everyone said this.
Someone ran back and came back a while later with a basket of eggs.
"Xiao Yi, try some of my family's free-range eggs."
"Xiao Yi, the grapes from my family are very sweet. Take some back for your wife."
"Xiao Yi..."
……
Everyone was very enthusiastic, and Chen Yi thanked them repeatedly.
"Thank you all, uncles and aunts. I'll be home tomorrow, so please come over."
"Okay, okay."
Everyone was overjoyed, and the courtyard was filled with excitement.
"Wow! It's quite lively."
Just then, a voice rang out.
The crowd turned around and immediately stepped back to make way.
Then a young man came over with two other people.
"Chen Jianguo, when are you going to pay your money? We need to gather enough people before we can start construction. Think about everyone else."
The young man came over and said with a smile.
Chen Yi turned to his father and asked, "What money do we need to pay?"
Chen Jianguo's face darkened. He said, "They said they'd install natural gas, but we have more firewood than we can burn. What would we need that for?"
"Oh, about that."
Chen Yi smiled and said, "Dad, installing natural gas is quite convenient. We won't have to go up the mountain to chop firewood every day anymore. Let's install it."
He knew that his father was probably afraid of spending money, so he didn't want to install natural gas; it would cost five or six thousand yuan to install it for one household.
The young man's face lit up with joy upon hearing this.
"Young people really know more. Installing natural gas is a good thing for everyone. What's your name, brother?"
He then handed Chen Yi a cigarette.
"Chen Yi".
Chen Yi took it and said.
"My name is Huang Quan. Thank you for your support, brother."
The young man lit a cigarette and said with a smile.
Chen Yi: "Okay, I'll pay for it."
Huang Quan exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Twelve thousand eight per household."
"How many?"
Chen Yi wondered if he had misheard. How could installing natural gas be so expensive?
Chen Jianguo said in a deep voice, "That's right. A canister of gas can last for several months. It's so expensive, I could use gas until I die and still not run out."
"It is indeed a bit expensive. I heard it only costs two or three thousand in the city, why is it so expensive here?"
The villagers also complained.
"Young people only come back a few times a year, so what do we old folks need? It's a waste of money."
"Twelve thousand, it would take me a year to earn that."
……
Huang Quan smiled as he looked at Chen Yi through the smoke.
"You're young, how come you don't understand this? This is a remote mountain area, rebuilding pipelines costs money, of course it's more expensive than in the city."
Chen Yi said, "But as far as I know, even in rural areas, the installation fee is only five or six thousand yuan per household. Yours is ridiculously expensive."
Huang Quan's face gradually darkened, and he said:
"Brother, I haven't seen you much lately. You don't come back often, do you?"
Chen Yi: "So what?"
Huang Quan said, "Look, you're not home often. Your parents are getting old and need the care of us villagers. You finally come back, why make things difficult for us?"
Chen Yi's gaze darkened slightly.
Huang Quan's words were a blatant threat.
Don't cause trouble, or your parents won't have an easy time when you're not home.
This person is asking for death for threatening his parents!
Just then, Chen Yi's phone rang, and he saw that it was Yang Zhiwu calling.
Chen Yi answered the phone.
"Mayor Yang, what's the matter?"
Yang Zhiwu said, "Dr. Chen, there's something I'd like to ask you for a favor."
"Mayor Yang, please speak."
Yang Zhiwu asked, "Do you know Leng Wenxuan, the former principal of Longgang County Middle School?"
"You mean Principal Leng? I know him."
Chen Yi quickly replied, "He was the principal when I was in school, so what?"
"Why!"
Yang Zhiwu sighed, "Principal Leng is highly respected in our county and has done a lot of work for our Qingshan Town."
But I recently fell seriously ill, and things aren't going well at home. I was wondering if Dr. Chen has time to come and see me.
"What?"
Chen Yi frowned.
Principal Leng is a learned and humble person, and is indeed highly respected in Longgang County.
When he was in school, his family was poor, and Principal Leng helped him many times.
Moreover, Principal Leng has a daughter who is his classmate, so he and Principal Leng are quite familiar with each other.
"Mayor Yang, how about this, I'm going to the county town the day after tomorrow, I'll go and take a look then."
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, Dr. Chen. I'm going to the county town the day after tomorrow afternoon, let's go together," Yang Zhiwu said hurriedly.
Just as he was about to hang up, Chen Yi said, "Mayor Yang, I have a question for you."
Yang Zhiwu: "Go ahead."
Chen Yi asked, "Do you know how much it costs to install natural gas in Datian Village?"
"I know that."
Yang Zhiwu,
"The gas company initially quoted 12,800 yuan per household. We negotiated with them for a long time and also sought help from some social resources. In the end, the price was 6,800 yuan. So, do you have a problem with that?"
Six thousand eight!
Chen Yi looked at Huang Quan with a cold gaze.
That bastard is really ruthless; he swallowed half of it whole.
"It's okay, could you please repeat the final quote?"
Chen Yi said, then turned on speakerphone.
Yang Zhiwu paused for a moment, then said, "The final price for natural gas installation in Datian Village is 6,800 yuan per household."
What?
The sound came out, and everyone in the crowd was taken aback.
