"Thank you, Mr. Ling." Xu Xian saluted again.
Li Gongfu smiled all over his face: "Okay, that's great, so my brother-in-law will have an explanation to your sister and the late husband-in-law and mother-in-law."
"..." The atmosphere suddenly changed. Ling Chi, Su Mei, and Xiao Qing all looked at Li Gongfu with admiration, but Xu Xian had a sore nose and gave a big gift to Li Gongfu: "Thank you brother-in-law for taking care of my sister and Han Wen all these years." .”
"Hey? Hey, what is this for?" Li Gongfu didn't know what was wrong with Xu Xian, so why was he so grateful to himself all of a sudden? "Did you drink too much, boy?"
Li Gongfu's reaction showed the preciousness of his character even more, Ling Chi said with emotion: "Captain Li, you are a real man, a good man."
"Mr. Ling, what are you talking about? Why are all of you so weird? What's wrong?" Li Gongfu became more and more puzzled: "Don't you think I'm a fool?"
There was a moment of silence, and then loud laughter filled the hall.
……
Not long after, Xu Jiaorong, who brought the tea, listened to Xu Xian's narration, her eyes turned red, and she knelt down to Ling Chi: "Thank you, Mr. Ling."
"What is Mrs. Li doing? Get up quickly." Ling Chi gave Xiaoqing a look, and Xiaoqing immediately got up and helped Xu Jiaorong up: "Please, Mrs. Li, my young master doesn't like these vulgar rituals."
Xu Jiaorong was already in tears: "I... I really don't know how to thank Mr. Ling, my Xu family only has a man named Hanwen, if he can be successful in the future, the ancestors of the Xu family will also be able to smile Nine springs."
Ling Chi sighed: "The elder sister is like a mother, Xu Xian, you must study medicine hard, and be a good doctor in the future, and don't let down your sister and brother-in-law's painstaking efforts."
With tears in his eyes, Xu Xian nodded again and again, and stepped forward to hold Xu Jiaorong's arm: "Sister, don't worry, I will definitely study hard, and I will be filial to you and brother-in-law when I have a future."
"It's enough to be filial to your sister, and I don't need it." Li Gongfu said: "We men are supposed to support our families. My brother-in-law has no ability to let your sister live a good life. You will have a future, don't forget your sister Just fine."
"How could it be!" Xu Xian wiped away his tears and said, "Brother-in-law, you are working in the public office, you must pay attention to safety, you and your sister must grow old together."
"I love to hear that, hahaha." Li Gongfu laughed.
Ling Chi chuckled, liking Li Gongfu's temperament more and more, he is a responsible man.
However, he helped Xu Xian not because of his friendship with Li Gongfu, but because of compensation.
Because of his appearance, the little shepherd boy 700 years ago failed to save Bai Suzhen, so there was no such thing as a love affair with a monster. Ling Chi had been a fairy official in the Heavenly Court for several years, and he had some understanding of karma. Inadvertently robbing Xu Xian of the opportunity, it is natural to compensate Xu Xian.
Just like Bai Suzhen clearly wanted to get a positive result, but because of the kindness she was saved by the little shepherd boy 700 years ago, she had to repay it.To become an immortal and attain the Tao, one must get rid of all causes and effects, otherwise, even if one can become an immortal and attain the Tao, future achievements will be difficult.
To put it simply, karma is a quagmire. If you don't get rid of the quagmire, you can't move forward. Not only can you not go, but you will sink deeper and deeper.Therefore, immortal cultivators pay special attention to cause and effect. Even if Ling Chi has the God of Cooking system, it will not be affected, but if he got Bai Suzhen for nothing, even if it is out of compensatory psychology, he should give Xu Xian a little help.
It's just a shop, nothing more.
……
Not long after sitting at Li Gongfu's house, Ling Chi left with Su Mei and Xiao Qing. Originally, Xu Jiaorong wanted them to eat before leaving, but Ling Chi shook his head, and then Xiao Qing made a black face for him : "My young master is not used to eating outside food."
These words made Xu Jiaorong very embarrassed, but she also expressed her understanding.After all, what good food can ordinary people eat at home?It's nothing more than simple food, although it's almost Chinese New Year, and I can eat some meat, the taste is only so-so, and Ling Chi lives in Ling's mansion, so he must eat delicacies from mountains and seas every day, so he is naturally not used to eating outside.
"Then we won't keep Mr. Ling, Mr. Ling, go slowly."
Ling Chi smiled and said: "If you are interested in the shop, go to the Ling Mansion and tell me, and I will send someone to buy the shop."
"Thank you, Young Master Ling."
After watching the three of Ling Chi leave, Xu Jiaorong said with emotion: "Mr. Ling is really our nobleman, Gongfu. If Mr. Ling encounters some trivial matters that require running errands in the future, you have to work harder."
"You don't have to worry about this matter, I will arrange it." Li Gongfu said: "Go into the house! I haven't eaten since I came back, and I'm starving to death."
If it was before, Xu Jiaorong would definitely say irritably: "I just know how to eat."
But now, Xu Jiaorong said quite softly: "I'm going to cook right now. Chinese, it's cold, you go make a pot of wine, and have a drink or two with your brother-in-law later."
Xu Xian nodded: "I'll go right away."
Li Gongfu: ⊙(?◇?)?
what is it today?Am I dreaming?
Li Gongfu suspects life.jpg
……
Ling Chi originally thought that buying a shop must be a matter of the next year, but unexpectedly, the next morning, Li Gongfu ran over: "Mr. Ling, I have found a suitable shop."
"..."
It also happened to be a coincidence that there happened to be an old owner who opened a grocery store here in other places. He wanted to sell the store, but the price had not been negotiated. Li Gongfu knew that there was something interesting when he asked about the price. , then ran over to ask Ling Chi's opinion.
"200 taels of silver?" Ling Chi nodded, "Yes."
In terms of housing prices in Qiantang County, this price is still fair, and Ling Chi has no intention of counter-offering, so he directly handed over 20 taels of gold to Li Gongfu: "Catcher Li, go and buy the shop! I will send the documents and the house deed to you later." Just bring it to me."
"This... Mr. Ling, are you not going? Li Gongfu looked at the 20 taels of gold and was a little nervous."
Ling Chi smiled slightly and said, "I can trust you."
This sentence gave Li Gongfu an urge to die for his confidant.Taking the gold with both hands, Li Gongfu said: "Don't worry, Mr. Ling, I will definitely handle this matter well."
Ling Chi nodded with a smile.
……
Li Gongfu is a trustworthy person, and he is the head catcher of the yamen, so it is easy to talk in the yamen. It didn't take long for Li Gongfu to take down the shop and make a transaction certificate in the yamen.Before evening, Li Gongfu returned to the Ling Mansion with the shop's deed: "Mr. Ling, the shop has been bought and all the formalities have been completed. This is the deed. Please take a look at it, Mr. Ling."
"Captain Li has worked hard." Seeing Li Gongfu's dusty appearance, Ling Chi said to the servant girl, "Take Catcher Li to wash up, and prepare a table of wine and food. I want to entertain Catcher Li."
"Mr. Ling, no need, no need." Li Gongfu hastily rejected: "This is my job, so there is no need for food and drinks."
Ling Chi smiled slightly: "Is Catcher Li going to refuse my invitation?"
"..." Li Gongfu was speechless, cupped his fists and followed the maid to wash up.
Ling Chi looked at the deed. This is a shop with two floors, each floor has an [-]-square-meter shop. The location is very good. There are households in the front, back, left, and right. There should be no fewer customers taking medicine.
The pharmaceutical industry has always been a lucrative industry. No matter how kind-hearted a doctor is, if he treats the poor and prescribes medicine, the profit will be at least double that. If he treats the rich, the profit will be immeasurable.
Xu Xian is not famous for his studies. If he is good at medicine, it is not difficult to become a famous local doctor. Xu Xian in the TV series does have the potential to become a famous doctor. Unfortunately, not long after his son was born, his wife was crushed under the Leifeng Pagoda. In order for his wife to come out earlier, he had to hand over his son Xu Shilin to his sister and brother-in-law to raise him, and went to Jinshan Temple to become a monk.
Although it happened for a reason, Ling Chi really didn't like Xu Xian's choice.
According to modern values, the more accidents happen at home, the more Xu Xian, as a man, should assume the responsibility of being a husband and father, instead of leaving his son to his sister and brother-in-law and running to become a monk by himself.No responsibility at all.
In comparison, although Li Gongfu is a big boss, no matter whether he is a husband or a father, he has taken the corresponding responsibilities well.If Ling Chi were a woman and had to choose a husband, he would definitely choose Li Gongfu instead of Xu Xian.
