Metaphysical Talisman Wife Fortune-telling Spirit: Orion eats chaff and I eat meat

Chapter 378 Old friends meet again, things are different and people are different
Hou Qiaoyu was furious: "Brother! How could you do this?"

But his arm was held by Chen Yanfeng: "Take the child to see the doctor first!"

Hou Qiaoyu gritted her teeth, stared at Hou Zhongyuan hatefully, and said with tears: "You are my dear brother..."

Hou Zhongyuan looked slightly embarrassed, but he forced himself to defend himself: "My life is not easy... Ever since your accident, this restaurant has been out of business!"

"It's okay if there's no business. There are quite a few people making trouble and looking for trouble. I've lost money seven or eight times in the past six months!"

"If this continues, I will have to go to the streets to beg for food like you!"

Hou Qiaoyu wanted to say: This restaurant is still there!

No matter how bad it is, if we sell the restaurant, we will still have several thousand taels of silver, which will be enough for our family to eat and drink for a lifetime...

But Chen Yanfeng had already pulled Hou Qiaoyu to the hospital firmly.

The Huichun Hall is nearby, and it was something I was used to seeing in the Hou Mansion.

The group of people walked into the Huichun Hall, and when they saw the shocked eyes of the doctor and shopkeeper of the Huichun Hall, they realized that their status was different now.

But everyone has come in... Chen Yanfeng said quietly: "Please ask Dr. Yao to diagnose and treat the child."

Dr. Yao used to often go in and out of the Hou Mansion. Now when he saw Chen Yanfeng like this, he was shocked, but he was not slow and stepped forward to diagnose and treat Chen Huaijue.

When he heard that he had hit the back of his head and fell into coma, Dr. Yao's expression changed. After checking his pulse, his expression became solemn: "I need to give the young master an acupuncture."

A bunch of silver needles pricked her down, and Chen Huaijue finally woke up: "It hurts...I hurt...vomited..."

Hou Qiaoyu burst into tears: "Jue'er, don't be afraid, mother is here..."

Doctor Yao said, "He hit his brain. He needs acupuncture every day, supplemented with decoction, and rest for a period of time before he can recover."

When everyone heard this, they looked at each other: Now that the family doesn't even have a place to live, where can they rest?

Hou Qiaoyu knew that there was a ward for temporary accommodation for patients behind Huichun Hall, so she began to plead.

"Doctor Yao, can you let the child stay with you for a few days? We are now..."

Everyone in Huichun Hall had already seen from their clothes that they were in complete despair and could not even wear clean clothes.

Things are different and people are different!
The shopkeeper stepped forward in embarrassment: "Hou... Mr. Chen, this is a medical clinic, not a charity hall. For the sake of the past, I can live in it. It doesn't matter if I can't afford the medical fee, but the money for the medicine..."

Chen Yanfeng handed over five taels of silver: "Is this enough?"

The shopkeeper glanced at the five taels of silver and then at Doctor Yao.

Doctor Yao nodded slightly.

The shopkeeper nodded: "This money is enough to buy medicine for three to five days. After three to five days, the medicine will be useless..."

When Hou Qiaoyu heard this, he cried again: "He is so seriously injured, how can three or five days be enough?"

Chen Yanfeng said sadly: "Let's live here first. I'll take care of the money."

The shopkeeper immediately showed a smile: "That's OK. Just stay here first."

After hearing what Chen Yanfeng said, Chen Yankang's eyes lit up: "Third brother, is there any way you can think of a solution?"

Chen Yanfeng sighed and said nothing: Where is the way out?

It's just a matter of trying it out with people you've made good friends with before, selling it with an old face, and seeing which one is willing to sell it.

At this moment, a steward next to him suddenly said: "Our family gave us the money to look after the child's injuries."

Several people were startled and looked back. Hou Qiaoyu narrowed her eyes and looked at the steward's face seriously, and asked hesitantly: "Are you... the steward of the Qiao family?"

The steward of the Qiao family nodded, with a look of disdain that could not be concealed on his face: "My master heard that you were making trouble in Zuixian Tower with an unconscious child, so he asked me to come and take a look..."

"The Qiao family is so righteous! As expected of our in-laws, we can provide help in times of need..."

Chen Yankang was so moved that he almost shed tears.

The manager of the Qiao family said calmly, "Uncle Chen, please don't flatter our Qiao family. The daughter of the Qiao family married into your family, but you treated her so badly. The Qiao family cannot get over this." "It's just that our master is kind-hearted and said that the disaster should not affect the child. Our Qiao family will not do such a thing as destroying the bridge after crossing the river or watching someone in danger without helping him."

These words were like a slap in the face of everyone in the Chen family, and everyone was a little embarrassed.

The steward of the Qiao family said again: "The master said, we will help you, this is only one time. From now on, the road will be open to the sky, everyone will go their own way, and there will be no need to see each other again."

After saying that, the steward of the Qiao family looked at the shopkeeper and Dr. Yao again: "For the medicine you two gave the child and the expenses for his living here these days, just go back to the Qiao family to settle the bill."

The shopkeeper and Dr. Yao nodded repeatedly, not forgetting to praise the Qiao family's righteousness.

Chen Yanfeng watched the steward of the Qiao family leave, pursed his lips and turned to leave without saying a word.

In the next two days, Chen Yanfeng and the three brothers of the Chen family divided their work and searched every household they had ever been friends with.

Things were indeed as expected. When most people saw them, they closed the door without saying a word, and didn't even say a word.

Some of the concierges spoke harshly, causing them psychological torture.

Occasionally, a kind-hearted person will ask the steward to come out and say a few soft words to express the strong relationship.

"Mr. Chen, it's not that we don't want to help you, and it's not that we can't afford the money, but His Majesty's attitude towards you is unclear now. Who dares to help you at this time?"

Someone suggested that Chen Yanfeng go to the crown prince.

After all, the prince also visited Chen Yanfeng's house when he was still King Pingxi. Maybe there was still some friendship between them?

If the prince is really willing to return Chen Yanfeng's property, or even reinstate his official position, it will not be too late to make good friends by then.

In the evening, the whole family met at the back door of the hospital to sum up their day's earnings, only to find that they had gained nothing.

Chen Yanping also heard similar words: "My friend suggested that the third brother go to the crown prince to see if his majesty can return the family property?"

Everyone's eyes fell on Chen Yanfeng's face, very eagerly.

Chen Yanfeng glanced at everyone: "I'll go, okay."

Everyone's breathing became a little heavier, and their eyes became more eager.

But what Chen Yanfeng said next poured cold water on everyone.

"But if this offends the prince and he puts all of us in jail or even beheads us, please don't blame me."

When everyone heard this, did they think this was a big deal?

So they all retreated.

Chen Yankang: "Then forget it."

Chen Yanping: "Let's think of other ways."

But Yu Suqin suddenly said: "How about we separate our families? Let's each find our own way."

The three brothers of the Chen family were all stunned. They looked first at Yu Suqin and then at Chen Yanfeng.

Chen Yanfeng's eyes were heavy and he curled his lips sarcastically: He realized that he was no longer of use and was ready to kick him away.

fair enough……

"We have nothing to live on now, and separation is just a matter of words."

"Then so be it. It's better to find your own way."

With Chen Yanfeng's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Huaibiao immediately called his parents and sisters: "Then let's leave quickly and see where we can stay overnight before it gets dark."

When Chen Yankang and others heard this, they immediately followed Chen Huaibiao.

When Chen Yanping saw it, he also called out to those in his family: "Then let's go too..."
