Around the family area, or in the ears of some officials in Yan Jing, the news of Elder Ye coming back from the dead spread.
Everyone in the Yan Jing family area knew about Elder Ye and the four elders of the older generation. Those four elders were all old, and Elder Ye had been suffering from injuries for more than a decade. It wasn't a secret that he couldn't make it through the winter. When everyone was preparing for the national funeral, they heard that one of Elder Ye's descendants came back from abroad, and Elder Ye magically got out of bed and was able to walk, no longer needing a wheelchair!
Some of the older people were asking the three imperial doctors, and they were also at a loss. But one thing was for sure, the illness that the three couldn't handle was miraculously cured by that young man!
The old man still entertained the younger generations who had come to visit him in the old restaurant. He stood in high spirits and talked as if his waist didn't hurt. He even waved his hand and grinned from ear to ear. The customers who had looked at him as if he were a dead man that day felt the strong contrast and shock.
After asking around, the news of Xu Cheng saving Elder Ye spread like wildfire. If it wasn't for the fact that Xu Cheng was temporarily staying at the Ye Family's place, the people who came to visit him would have already stepped on his doorstep.
However, the bigwigs in Yan Jing would still send out requests to invite Xu Cheng to dinner, and none of them were small characters. Those small characters didn't have the qualifications to ask someone to send them a request, but even so, Xu Cheng still refused without leaving his door. If it was someone else, people would say that they were putting on airs and offending people. But Xu Cheng didn't exist. You also had to look at what he had.
He was the only one from the younger generation who was praised by the five elders. He had both strength and the most important thing was that he had saved Old Man Ye's life!
Just based on this, even if you didn't care about the five elders, you should at least care about Elder Ye's feelings. Wasn't going against his benefactor seeking death?
In that big mansion in the family district, Xu Cheng was now the most popular person in the city.
The Zhou Family, the Nie Family, and the Xing Family all called Xu Cheng personally to ask about his well-being. Xu Cheng knew what they were trying to do. If necessary, they wanted him to go out and protect these four elders for a few more years.
Of course, Xu Cheng would protect them. To be honest, these five grandpas were the foundation of his life, and he couldn't wait for these five old friends with similar interests to live a few more years. Xu Cheng felt like only these five grandpas understood what he wanted and understood him.
So, he asked Lin Dong to temporarily send the equipment from his lab abroad. He thought it was better to make the medicine for the four elders before he left. Not for anything else, but for the sake of having a shelter here, no matter how crazy he would be outside in the future, it would be enough.
Xu Cheng also told Lin Dong to let Caesar and Lin Dong get ready.
"Master, someone from a hospital came to look for you. I said you weren't here. They wanted to go to China to look for you." Lin Dong said, "His name is Dr. George."
"Just say I'm busy." Xu Cheng said, "I won't be going for now. You can take care of things there. Also, keep in touch with Luo Yi and Li Wei."
"Okay, I got it, Master." Lin Dong said, "Then your equipment probably can't get through customs."
"It's fine, I have a way." Xu Cheng hung up the phone, and then he said to Ye Xiu, who was washing his face and brushing his teeth, "Little Xiu, I have a lab bench that will be shipped over from the United States. Help me talk to the customs and make sure they don't get stuck."
He hadn't used a lot of the machine tools in Huaxia, and they were quite outdated. For example, there was no equipment in China that could use the serum extraction technology. Professor Kerman's lab bench was custom made, and he was used to using it. This time, he couldn't be careless when refining the gene serum for the four elders.
"Is that a problem?" Ye Xiu rinsed his mouth and pouted. "Now, you just need to say the word and I'll do it for you."
Xu Cheng smiled. "I want to go back to Shangcheng."
Ye Xiu immediately agreed. "That won't do. Grandpa said you should spend more time with him in Yanjing."
Speaking up to here, Ye Xiu looked at Xu Cheng sincerely and said, "Big Brother Cheng, to be honest, thank you for helping the Ye Family."
"Don't thank me. I only know that I got along well with the old man, so I saved him. The Ye Family doesn't owe me anything else." Xu Cheng said, "Just treat it as me paying for the free food and drinks."
"If you want to eat and live for the rest of your life, it's not a problem." Ye Xiu smiled and said, "Don't mention it!"
At this moment, a guard came over with a rich woman. It was none other than Auntie Lan.
She bought a lot of clothes and daily necessities for Xu Cheng's return. After entering the courtyard, she first bowed to Elder Ye and said, "Greetings, Elder Ye."
Speaking of which, Elder Ye's status in the big sects was quite high, and Auntie Lan was a servant, so she naturally had to bow to him.
Elder Ye pouted. "Don't be like that from the big sects, it's all gone. It's not like they're superstitious."
Auntie Lan nodded and smiled. "Then I'll go deliver some clothes to Young Master."
Xu Cheng gestured to Auntie Lan that his room was in the west wing, and Auntie Lan went to put the clothes and necessities in. Then, Xu Cheng and Ye Xiu went to the stool under the tree and sat down. Ye Xiu's mom was also sitting there, making tea for the old man. Xu Cheng saw Auntie Lan put down the items and asked her to sit down and chat.
Auntie Lan walked over and saw that Minister Ye's wife and the old man were both here. She didn't dare to sit down, nor did she have the right to, so she just stood on the side.
Xu Cheng looked at her and said, "Sit, why are you standing?"
Auntie Lan carefully and awkwardly looked at the old man and Ye Xiu's mom.
Ye Xiu's mom, who was more quick-witted, faintly smiled at Auntie Lan. "Little Cheng told you to sit, so sit."
Only then did Auntie Lan carefully sit down with a smile.
Who knew that at this moment, Xu Cheng would solemnly say to the old man, "Old man, it's not that I can't recognize you as my grandpa, but let me first introduce you. This is not a servant of the Ye Family, that Lan Ting is my aunt!"
Auntie Lan's body trembled. She couldn't believe that the young master dared to say something like this to the old man. Although he was protecting her, at the same time, he was also challenging the old man's authority.
"Brat, is it wrong for you to recognize me as your grandpa?" Elder Ye took a puff of his cigarette and glared at Xu Cheng.
After thinking about it, he pouted and said, "Fine, seeing that you let me smoke and drink to my heart's content, I'll beg you to recognize me as my grandpa, okay? Don't get angry just yet. If I had prejudice against her, would I let her in through the guards at the gate? "
Then, the old man looked at Auntie Lan and said, "I don't have a daughter. Lan Ting, are you willing to be my goddaughter? In the future, don't keep the slave surname that the Ye Family gave you. Change your surname to Ye with me, Ye Ting. "
Ye Xiu's mom smiled. "Sister Lan, I heard from Little Cheng that your tea making skills are amazing. You have to show off your skills today."
Auntie Lan was dumbfounded at first, and then she immediately understood what was going on. With red eyes, she directly bent down and knelt down. "Yes, of course I'm willing."
She quickly made some tea herself, and then she said to the old man, "Dad, have some tea."
The old man smiled, took the teacup, and took a sip. "Not bad!"
Auntie Lan looked at Xu Cheng with infinite gratitude.
Xu Cheng felt that the best thing for Auntie Lan was to let her be accepted by the Ye Family and become someone with a name and identity!
