After cleaning, she took the hose and rinsed it again. The floor was as clean as new.
She took two cucumbers from the basket at the door, washed them under the hose, and handed one to Chen Faqi. "These are from the greenhouse at home. Eat one. It's very crispy."
"Thank you, Sis." Chen Faqi shook off the water droplets on the cucumber. Just like Li Ke, he crunched on it. She had only met Li Ke twice, and both times were at the Li family's mansion in Xishan.
In her eyes, Li Ke had always been a very wealthy person. She didn't expect him to have such a peasant side.
"My legs are so weak." Chen Youli couldn't sit still on the stool. He had to get up from time to time and move around, patting his legs with his hands. "I'm afraid I'll be crippled."
Li He smiled. "Let me introduce you to an old Chinese medicine practitioner. He's in Xinyang next door. It's about an hour's drive."
"That's great. I've been taking anti-inflammatory medicine every day. My tongue tastes bitter and I can't take it anymore. I was just thinking of changing places to see a doctor. I'm suffering every day."
Chen Faqi smiled at Li He. "Uncle Li, my dad admires you the most. I hope you can persuade him to go abroad when he has time. After all, it's another option."
Li He smiled. "You don't trust Chinese medicine?"
Chen Faqi's little thoughts naturally didn't escape Li He's eyes.
Chen Faqi said, "I don't mean that. I just think that going to America or England is another option."
Li Ke saw that Chen Faqi suddenly didn't dare to speak, so he wanted to help. "Chinese medicine is not scientific."
Li He smiled. "I didn't understand it in the past. If Chinese medicine is useful, it's not scientific. I'm a scientific person and I'm skeptical. There are too many specious things. What moisture, what cold, there's no quantitative standard.
Kidney water, liver wood, heart fire, spleen earth, lung gold. Each is more mysterious than the other.
But if you say that it's useless, sometimes some illnesses, such as back pain and bonesetting, Chinese medicine is better than Western medicine.
However, fortunately, there are experts in our family. Your fourth aunt can't lie to me, right?
She told me that science didn't discriminate against traditional Chinese medicine. It didn't matter if it was macroscopic or microscopic, chaotic or clear. You could treat traditional Chinese medicine as a field of herbology. Western medicine also had medicinal chemistry, toxicology, pharmacy, and zoology.
After she said that, I got the gist of it. "
Chen Youli smiled and said, "You're all children. You think you can understand everything just by reading a few books. Our ancestors have passed it down for thousands of years. How could it not be good? If you want to say that it's bad, you have to first thoroughly understand it. Only when you really understand it can you say that it's bad."
Wang Yulan carried a large pile of wood from behind. Li Ke rushed over to help. Chen Faqi couldn't just stand there, so he followed to help.
Chen Youli chuckled in a low voice, "What science? Some things can't be measured with data. We're not strangers, so I'll tell you the truth. I have an ultimate move that you probably don't know about. I'm afraid it'll disgust you, so I don't dare to say it. "
"Say it." Li He's curiosity was piqued.
"When a girl walks past me, I look at her." Chen Youli was afraid that others would hear him, so he said in an even lower voice, "You can't hide it from my eyes. If I'm mistaken, I'll gouge it out for you. Tell me, how do you measure this scientifically?
It's all experience. "
"So that's how it is?" Li He's eyes widened in surprise. "I've only read about it in books. It's said that the pimp in the past had this skill."
Chen Youli used to be a pimp, so he didn't suspect that he was lying.
Chen Youli said, "This isn't considered a skill. You'll naturally understand after more contact."
After saying that, he glanced at his daughter and Li Ke. "For example, these two girls in our family are good children, but they're also worried that they don't know how to get a boyfriend at this age."
"You're an old pervert. It's up to fate. I can't control it. "Li He continued to ask," Are you really going to retire? "
"Yes," Chen Youli said as he massaged his legs. "I'm ten years older than you, and I'm going to be seventy soon. If I don't let go, the child won't be able to catch up to school. When I'm gone one day, I won't be able to teach her anything in time. She'll be at a loss."
"I want to let go, but I can't." Li He thought of Li Lan. This child had no intention of inheriting the family business at all. He put all his attention on Go.
Chen Youli said, "Your child Li Lan is smart. As long as he's willing to learn, he'll be a good player. So what if my daughter is smart?
After all, she's a girl. She's far behind. "
Near noon, Li Lan, Liu Four, and the others rushed back from the county. Li He introduced them one by one.
Li Ke and Chen Faqi cooked four to five stir-fried dishes, and an old hen stewed by Wang Yulan. It wasn't a sumptuous meal, but it wasn't bad either.
Pan Guangcai smiled and said to Chen Faqi, "Niece, you don't have to be restrained here. If you have any difficulties in the future, feel free to look for me. I'll definitely help if I can."
"Thank you, uncle." Chen Faqi picked up a glass of beer. "Let me toast you."
"Come, I'll have a glass too." Chen Youli ignored his daughter's dissuasion and picked up the glass very firmly. "She's young and has never been out in society. If she's not considerate in the future, please forgive her."
Li Long smiled and said, "You're too polite. We're all family. I'll say the same thing. If you need anything in the future, feel free to ask."
He finished the beer in his glass as he spoke.
Chen Youli smiled and said, "Thank you, everyone."
After dealing with this table of people, his daughter was unimpeded in the business world of Wanbei.
Li He picked up his glass and asked, "Leaving in the afternoon?"
Chen Youli said, "Since she hasn't started school yet, she should go to a few more places. We can't let the flood flood the temple of the Dragon King. We have to let her take a look at the family business and get to know the managers of the branch companies."
Li He asked, "Are you going to Shenzhen too?"
Chen Youli nodded. "Of course. I'll also treat President Chen and President Yu to a meal."
Li He said, "You don't have to worry about Chen Kui and Yu Dehua. They're all on the same side. You don't have to go to Xiangnan, Ganxi, and Zhedong either. They're either my students or my classmates. There are also some of our business partners. I'll inform them.
As for the three provinces in the northeast, I won't be able to take care of them. "
Chen Youli was overjoyed and quickly said to his daughter, "Hurry up and toast your Uncle Li."
Chen Faqi picked up her glass and said, "Thank you, Uncle Li."
Her father had already told her that as long as she had Li He's approval, it would be enough.
