Siheyuan: Fighting against Japanese Aggression in Beijing

Chapter 129 Director Yang Arrives

"Well, it seems that Lily really wants to give birth to a child for Zhuzi, and she did it so directly."

"Oh, Master, I'm so anxious, hurry up!" Sha Zhu said anxiously.

"It's not a good idea to write the word '生' to ask whether the baby will be a boy or a girl."

"I told you! Junior brother, it seems that you are destined to be the daughter's son. This is fate!" Xu Damao said excitedly.

"Shut up, Master hasn't said anything yet. How do you know, you crow's mouth!"

"Zhu Zi, Damao's mouth is a bit foul, but he is right. Judging from the words, it should be a daughter." Li Kangri said.

"Ah? Master, why? Tell me, why is he the son and I the daughter?" Sha Zhu said unhappily.

"There is no basis for this. Look, the character '生' is in the shape of a person lying on the ground. Kun in the five elements belongs to the land, which is yin and female. The character '生' also looks like a cow standing on the grass. The cow is ugly in the twelve zodiac signs, and ugly also belongs to the earth in the five elements. In ancient times, ugly was pronounced as "niu", like "niu", "niu", and "niu". Therefore, cow is also a girl. This means that Lily is pregnant with a daughter without a doubt." Li Kangri explained.

"What's ugly about her? She's a girl, so it must be a daughter!" Sha Zhu said disappointedly.

"Brother Zhuzi, what's wrong with the woman? Who is the beautiful man going to marry?" Yu Li pulled Sha Zhuzi and said.

At this time, she felt uncomfortable, but she became even more unhappy when she saw Sha Zhu despised his daughter.

"You are right! But I just want to have a son and marry someone else's daughter." said Sha Zhu.

"Okay, Zhuzi, it doesn't matter if we have a daughter this time. Wouldn't it be nice to have a son next time? It's not like we can only have one. That's all for today. Uncle Lou and the others are still here!" Li Kangri said.

"It's okay. I think your fortune telling is pretty good. But it's almost time. We should go back." Lou Bancheng said, "Xiao Li, thank you for troubling you today. We'll see each other sometime."

After finishing speaking, Lou Bancheng and Lou Tan stood up and said goodbye.

"Uncle Lou, take care. Come often when you have time." Li Kangri said politely.

……

After Lou Bancheng left, Wang Yue immediately came up to him, "Brother Kangri, are those things you said true? Why do I feel like you've changed? You're talking nonsense, is that true? When did you learn all this? And, this is too good to be true! Are these city people so rich? They only charge a gold bar for fortune-telling?"

"Haha, I learned it when I had nothing to do. As for gold bars, not all city dwellers have them. Sister Xiao'e's family is a capitalist. They used to be wealthy capitalists. Do you know what his nickname is? Half of the city, half of the urban area belongs to his family, which shows that his family is really rich." Li Kangri explained.

"I knew it, Sister Xiao'e is very generous sometimes, no wonder! You earn a lot, but how much does a gold bar cost? It's far less than my annual salary!" said Wang Yue.

"Why? You want it?" Li Kangri asked with a smile, "You want me to give it to you?"

"No," Wang Yue hugged Li Kangri's neck and said, "I just want you, having you is enough for me."

"You are smart and know how to grasp the key parts." Li Kangri joked.

"By the way, Brother Kangri, why don't you feel my pulse to see if I'm pregnant too? The pillar is only a few days old! Feel it quickly."

As he spoke, Wang Yue put his wrist into Li Kangri's hand.

"All right!"

Thirty seconds later, Li Kangri shook his head and said, "No!"

"No way?"

“This requires fate!”

"I don't care about fate. I'm in a hurry to have a baby. Let's go back to the house and play the six and nine poker you mentioned tonight!"

After saying that, Wang Yue pulled Li Kangri and walked towards the next room.

……

The next day, around noon, an uninvited guest came to Li Kangri's office. To be precise, it was Director Yang, whom he was not very familiar with.

Seeing Director Yang coming in, Li Kangri greeted him politely, "Little Li, are you busy reading?"

"Hey, Director Yang, why are you here?" Li Kangri said after putting down his book, "Come in and sit down. I'll make you some tea."

"No need, I just came to see you. I've always heard from Deputy Director Li that you are a promising young man, so I came to see you today." Director Yang said with a smile.

"Hey, Director Li is praising me," Li Kangri said as he picked up the thermos and poured water for Director Yang.

"You're welcome. Come and sit down and let's talk." Director Yang said politely.

In fact, he came here today to find Li Kangri for something. He had heard that Li Huaide's mother-in-law's chronic rheumatoid arthritis had been cured, and he wanted to come over at that time.

But then I thought, how could a young guy have that ability, so I gave up.

It was not until these few days that the person from above came to him and asked him about the illness of Li Huaide's father-in-law's comrade-in-arms, that he came to visit.

Because he knew that his old boss, who is now his backer, also suffered from cold legs in that era. Whenever it was cloudy and rainy, he would feel terrible pain. He thought that if it could really be cured, it would be a way to please his leader.

"Director Yang, I'm a very straightforward person, haha," Li Kangri asked directly, "Do you have anything to talk to me about?"

Hearing what Li Kangri said, Director Yang did not hesitate, but asked directly, "Xiao Li, I heard that you also know medical skills, and you are not bad at it? Is it true?"

"Director Yang, who told you this? I just read medical books occasionally, and I only know a little bit."

"You are being modest, aren't you?" Director Yang said with a smile, "I heard that you cured Deputy Director Li's mother-in-law's rheumatoid arthritis. Many people have come to me to ask about it. This is a difficult and complicated disease. Can it be cured bit by bit?"

"Haha, there is something going on. What's the matter? Director Yang also has this problem and needs my help?"

"No, no, I'm fine. It's just that one of my leaders has the same problem. I came here today to ask, can you really cure it?" asked Director Yang.

"I'm not sure about that. It depends on the specific condition of the patient. However, if it's normal, it won't be a big problem."

"Really?" Director Yang said happily.

"No problem," Li Kangri said, "but these medicines are all precious herbs, and they cost a lot of money!"

"about how much?"

"It depends on the specific situation. The medical expenses will be about one thousand yuan. But as long as the medicine is used, it can be guaranteed to cure the disease." Li Kangri asked for a sky-high price.

"So expensive?" Director Yang exclaimed, but soon he said, "Yes, if it can be cured, it is not expensive. Xiao Li, do you have time tomorrow? If so, come with me to the old leader's house."

"Haha, as long as you ask for leave for me, it will be fine!"

"Well, I also heard that He Yuzhu and Xu Damao are your apprentices? Is it true?" asked Director Yang.

"Yeah!" Li Kangri nodded.
