cool autumn

When the old Chinese doctor walked into Ningzi Bakery with an old medicine box on his back, Zhou Ran was frowning, looking at the bowl of black Chinese medicine on the table with disgust, and then looked around. Under the staring eyes of the moon, he looked generous and righteous, and he raised his head and took several mouthfuls. The bitter Chinese medicine that made his tongue tasteless made him feel nauseous. It's better to throw candied fruit in.

Tang Mo has been watching from the side, obviously he was not the one who took the medicine, but his brows and eyes were also wrinkled into a ball, as if his mouth was full of bitterness, his scalp was numb and he smacked his lips. This guy is usually afraid of taking medicine Master, sometimes when you get sick, just taking the medicine is enough to give Tang Jinglin a headache.

After receiving Zhou Huaning's phone call, saying that Zhou Ran's eyes were able to see, the old Chinese doctor immediately packed up the acupuncture tools he needed and rushed over.

At this moment, leaning against the door frame and looking at Zhou Ran's calm and self-sufficient face, he finally showed a little boyishness at his age, and rubbed his nose involuntarily, laughing to himself.

Zhou Ran rubbed the candied fruit off his mouth bit by bit with his tongue, and looked towards the door with a feeling, and saw the old Chinese doctor smiling at him with a mean face, paused, and then turned his face away With the look on his face, he got up and called out: "Sir, you are here."

Zhou Huaning was just coming out of the kitchen with snacks, the freshly baked aroma of the old Chinese doctor couldn't even blink his eyes, he just ran along with the things in Zhou Huaning's hands in a daze, seeing Zhou Huaning smiled in his heart, and immediately took them enthusiastically The little plate gave him a few pieces of snacks, and said with a smile: "The old man is here, come and taste the snacks I made, see if it suits your taste, and bring some back when the time comes."

The old Chinese doctor was not polite either, he smiled and put a piece of dim sum into his mouth, opened his eyes wide in surprise and said it was delicious, while sticking out his tongue to make the hot dim sum squirm in his mouth, It was obviously very hot, but he refused to let go.

Tang Mo and Siyue covered their mouths and snickered next to each other. The old man glared at them, and they turned their eyes away one after another. Judging from the constantly shrugging shoulders, they probably still felt very happy.

The old Chinese doctor hurriedly raised his hand to wipe his mouth, and tried to save his image with two 'cough cough' sounds, but seeing the two swaying backs, he curled his lips unwillingly, and sat down on his buttocks, before turning serious Said: "Put out your hand and have a look, I'll take your pulse first."

Zhou Ran stretched out his hand according to his words, watching him squinting his eyes to feel his pulse, and then there were all kinds of twisted and strange expressions on his face, knowing it in his heart, but on his face, he lowered his eyes calmly to prevent his emotions from being sharply discovered.

"Strange, strange, this is wrong, it's unbelievable..." After the old man got his pulse, he kept walking back and forth, muttering in his mouth, and beat his head with confusion on his face, presumably Encountered a big problem.

Zhou Ran twitched the corners of his mouth, trying not to let out his unstoppable smile, lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong? Is there any problem with my eyes?"

The old Chinese doctor shook his head, continued to pace back and forth, and said angrily, "It's not normal if I'm fine..."

Zhou Huaning looked at Zhou Ran strangely, and when he saw Zhou Ran shaking his head at her and telling her to go to work first, he walked into the kitchen with a worried expression and continued to work on his own affairs.

"Has my illness worsened?" Zhou Ran picked up a piece of snack, took a bite slowly, and asked calmly.

Shaking his head, shaking his head again, the old man stuck his neck and simply agreed, "Cough, I think it's strange that I've improved so fast... the residual poison in your body is almost cleared, I guess it's too late. You will be able to fully recover your eyesight in a few days, cough, so what, this medicine is still very useful, you have to drink it until your body recovers, ahahaha..." When he said the latter, he almost buried his head in guilt. Going down the ground, his eyes were erratic and he didn't dare to look directly at Zhou Ran.

Zhou Ran raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expose him face to face, but just smiled secretly. A few days ago, he suddenly thought of using the dew overflowing from the grass in the Yin-Yang Spring to wash his eyes, and took some by mouth. After a week, he My eyesight has basically returned to normal, but it is still a little blurry when I look far away, just like myopia of two or three hundred degrees.

However, since he didn't intend to expose the guilty conscience of the old Chinese doctor, he didn't want to let his secret be revealed to the world, so let the old man struggle on his own.

Cursing his lips, Zhou Ran threw another candied fruit into his mouth, looked at the old Chinese doctor and rubbed his chin to think, and then fumbled for a piece of paper from the medicine box, although he still had a lot of things he couldn't figure out. Question, but you can keep it for later and think about it slowly. This new prescription must be updated in time. The recovery period of each stage of the patient is different, and the amount of medicinal materials used is naturally different, but at the end of the writing While taking the medicine, the old Chinese doctor rolled his eyes and glanced at Zhou Ran secretly. Seeing that he didn't respond, he quickly lowered his head and started writing.

"Aran, Aran...Look, I found that fish scale plant for you, haha...there is a small ditch in the woods, and there is a large area growing there." Grandpa Xu next door laughed Hehe, he held the green grass and shook it when he walked, and there was still water dripping on it.

Zhou Huaning heard the voice in the kitchen, and rushed out to meet him, smiling coquettishly and said: "It's Mr. Xu, the fresh herbs you found last time haven't been used up yet, it's really troublesome for you."

"It's not a problem, it's not a problem, my old bone is idle, it's good to find something for myself," Grandpa Xu waved his hand with a smile, and put the clean fish scale grass into the small basket in the kitchen In the middle of the day, he walked to the coffee table with a bumpy pace, looked at the old Chinese doctor with some curiosity, reached out to pour himself a cup of tea, held the teacup and looked at the old Chinese doctor again.

The old man hadn't finished pondering this in his mind, when a cold and eager gaze fixed on him beside him, and when he looked up, he saw Grandpa Xu on the opposite side looking at him rightly, his eyes so focused that it could burn the skin.

"The old man is a Chinese medicine doctor?" Grandpa Xu asked tentatively.

The old Chinese doctor nodded, raised his hand to put away the tools at hand, and tidied up the medicine box in an orderly manner. Seeing that Grandpa Xu was hesitant to speak, he couldn't help following his eyes to his old legs, Habitually, he reached out and tapped it twice, then glanced at Grandpa Xu's face, and asked in a firm tone, "Have you suffered from old rheumatism recently?"

"Yes, yes, I just want you to show me too. My old rheumatism legs can never be cured. Now that I am getting older, it will be even more unbearable when it is windy and rainy. You, you Show me, just give me a prescription that can relieve the pain." Grandpa Xu slapped his thigh in surprise, and when he got excited, he couldn't speak well.

Seeing the strangeness, the old Chinese doctor withdrew his tightly held hand, looked at him silently, then grabbed a pen and wrote down some common medicine names, and asked him to soak in water morning and evening for ten days It takes about half a month to see results.

Zhou Ran poked his head and saw that Grandpa Xu worshiped the old Chinese doctor as if he were a reincarnated Bodhisattva. His four old eyes looked at each other for a few seconds, and within a few minutes of talking, the topic suddenly turned to chess and so on. Zhou Ran really didn't know how to comment on the two people who were both extremely good at regretting chess.

He reached out and handed over the new prescription just prescribed by the old Chinese doctor to Zhou Huaning. Tang Mo was dragged upstairs to play the game console by Siyue. Zhou Ran stopped at the door for a few seconds, touching the beating right eyelid, feeling Annoyed, he carried his pockets and went out.

"Hey, Aran, are you here? I'll be waiting for you on Shinan Road. Hurry up, I'll be waiting for you alone." Just as he stopped a taxi, Lin Wangbei called again in a hurry.

Zhou Ran helped his glasses on the bridge of his nose, stepped into the car, and blinked a little unaccustomed. Although his eyes were able to see things, they still felt a little stinging when they came into contact with the sunlight outside. Putting on the glasses to block the light, rubbing his eyes, and adjusting the glasses, he replied slowly: "They are willing to drop three points."

Lin Wangbei over there gritted his molars and nodded frantically, "Yes, my young master, I've taken care of everything here, and I'm just waiting for your arrival, so hurry up."

"Oh," Zhou Ran replied slowly, and then closed the phone with a click. He and Lin Wangbei started planning to register a film and television company a while ago, and they have already delineated several goals according to Zhou Ran's wishes. It's not too difficult to buy ready-made ones directly, but his real age is still too young, and his eyesight is not convenient now, so Lin Wangbei has to take care of those trivial matters, he only needs to give the correct instructions .

Of course, according to Zhou Ran's fickle temperament, he is especially picky about some details, and the indicators he gives are often set very high. Do you think Lin Wangbei has any opinions? That is a must.But in the past half a month, Lin Wangbei has been completely out of temper by Zhou Ran. He has no choice but to have opinions. Who let people speak clearly and logically, so that he can't even find an excuse to refute? .

Hey, people with two big backers can't afford to provoke them.Lin Wangbei felt sad in silence.

When the car stopped on Shinan Road, Lin Wangbei had been waiting there a long time ago, and when he saw Zhou Ran getting off the car, he hurried over with a bag of documents, and said with a cheerful smile, "It's almost here, let's go in quickly, I've already told them almost everything."

"Three points?" Zhou Ran reached out to take the file bag, walked a few steps, and repeated it uneasy.

Damn, Lin Wangbei was about to be laughed out of anger, stepped forward a few steps, messed up his neat hair, and hummed, "Your brother, I'll go out, so it goes without saying, let's go, hurry up!" , we were all late for a long time."

Zhou Ran brushed his hair a few times without a word, followed him into the big restaurant behind him.

After entering the private room, they greeted each other warmly and courteously as brothers and sisters, and praised Zhou Ran fiercely. They were considered insiders and knew something about the current general trend of the Lin family.Since the company will be transferred sooner or later, no matter who it is, they don't know what the future holds, but most of the superficial skills are maintained perfectly.

Zhou Ran sat quietly on the side and looked at Lin Wangbei, who was planning a strategy and confident that everything was in hand. He quietly glanced at the middle-aged men who were obviously aged beside him from the corner of his eyes, and frowned. Focus on the files.

Lin Wangbei was quite tactful in his affairs, and he was never resigned to others in the wine market. After exchanging glances with Zhou Ran and confirming that it was correct, he turned his head and exchanged and signed his name with the people opposite him with a smile on his face, and verified the transaction face to face. Afterwards, Lin Wangbei's assistant who had been waiting behind him immediately locked the document into the lockbox, and several other people escorted him away.

"It's rare to meet such a straightforward person as Boss Song. Tonight we will not be drunk, hahahaha..." Lin Wangbei stood up first, holding a goblet of high-grade red wine in his hand, and said heartily laughed.

The rest of the people also stood up one after another, each holding their wine glasses, saying something pleasant in their mouths, clinking glasses, and only slowly sat down after drinking.

Although Zhou Ran was unsmiling, he was caught drinking several glasses of wine. Although he was not drunk, he couldn't stop the blush on his face, especially his clear eyes, black and white. Under the dense red mist, it is even more attractive.

There is no lack of people who are outstanding in the Fengyue field. A few eyes alternately turned their heads to talk about the topics shared by everyone. They cleverly restrained the budding thoughts in their hearts, and did not mention them with a smile. and.

Halfway through drinking, Zhou Ran retreated first. Lin Wangbei understood that he was recovering from a serious illness, smiled and helped him out, and ordered the driver downstairs to take him back to Zhou Huaning.

The man who was still drunk before, and who seemed to be unable to walk steadily, got into the car, frowned, and immediately rinsed his mouth with a bottle of mineral water in disgust, and heaved a sigh of relief after the smell of alcohol in his mouth faded. , feeling a little more comfortable.

"Ring, ring, ring...", Zhou Ran took off the glasses on the bridge of his nose, pressed the connect button, and gave a faint 'hello'.

It was Mu Wei who called. She lowered her voice on the other end of the phone and whispered: "Hello, Aran? I found the latest news, hehe, do you want to know?"

Zhou Ran rubbed his brows impatiently, "Say."

Mu Wei curled her lips over there, and then said mysteriously: "I just heard my little aunt talking about Huo Wendong, I said, haven't you been asking me about him, he seems to be injured , it sounds serious."

The fingers holding the phone couldn't help but clenched, Zhou Ran suddenly realized that his throat was a little hoarse, took a deep breath, and asked calmly: "How is he doing now, do you know where he is now?"

"I'm not sure about this. I heard that Huo Wendong was injured once before, but these days he seemed to be careless before he was murdered. The bullet penetrated his shoulder blade. I don't know if his life will be in danger. It's gone." Mu Wei sighed at the other end, and then comforted softly: "Huo Wendong has always been blessed and fateful, so you don't have to worry too much. If something really happens, I think his subordinates should also notify you. yes."

His mind went blank for a moment, Zhou Ran turned his face to the side, saw his face on the glass window as pale as paper, bit his lip, and Mu Wei's eager "Hey Hey" sound pulled him back from his thoughts.

"I see." Zhou Ran breathed a sigh of relief, and answered the other end of the phone, leaving Mu Wei on the other end speechless to the beeping on the phone.

When he got home, Zhou Huaning was smiling and leaning against the wall to listen to the phone. Seeing Zhou Ran hurriedly said a few words to the other end of the phone before hanging up, "Ah Ran, you are back."

"Well," Zhou Ran nodded perfunctorily, and responded casually. Seeing that Zhou Huaning obviously had something to say, he asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

Zhou Huaning smiled shyly, with an uncontrollable smile on his face, "Your Uncle Yuan called just now and said that he came to our place for the Chinese New Year."

"Then what did the Yuan family say?" Zhou Ran straightened his face and asked seriously. This matter is related to Zhou Huaning's happiness. He also cares about the Yuan family. He pays attention to their family's movements on weekdays. He knew everything that old Qingmei had done.

Zhou Huaning blinked and said with a smile: "As usual, I still disagree." After a pause, he continued: "However, I can't take the initiative to give up this hard-won happiness just because they disagree, no matter what happens in the future. , Try your best so you won’t regret it in the end, hehe...,…” On his face was an open-mindedness and optimism that he had never seen before, as if turning into a butterfly from a cocoon, it was eye-catching.

Zhou Ran gave a rare playful smile, "Come on, come on, don't we still have a guest room, and then let Yaya sleep with you." Then he turned and went upstairs.

Lying on his back on the bed, but the turmoil in his heart slowly filled his entire chest, he was so oppressed that he couldn't breathe, and after lying down for a while, he got up again and picked up his mobile phone to make a call.

"I'm looking for Huo Wendong?" It was Lin Lang who answered the phone, and Zhou Ran didn't talk nonsense with her, just called her by name.

Lin Lang laughed and laughed at the other end, "Boss is busy with something right now, so it's not convenient to answer the phone, why don't you call back later."

"Really can't take it?" Zhou Ran asked with a more serious tone.

"Hehe, that..."

Not wanting to hear Lin Lang making up nonsense, Zhou Ran hung up the phone with a click.

The lights in the room were on all night.

When Zhou Ran woke up from the bed, his nose was a little stuffy, and when he got downstairs after washing, Zhou Huaning was already up, seeing Zhou Ran smiling and waving at him, "Ran Ran woke up so early today, come over to have breakfast. "

Pulling out the chair and sitting down, chewing the small green vegetables in his mouth, Zhou Ran poked the porridge a little absent-mindedly, his eyes flashed, but he made up his mind in his heart, "Mom, I'm going to make a meal in the next few days. Go to the far door."

"Where are you going?" Zhou Huaning brought a plate of scrambled eggs from the kitchen again, not too surprised, just asked casually.The two of them had been together for so long, and she understood in her heart that this kid had a big idea. Since he told her so, he probably made up his mind and wouldn't change it easily. She could also ask, and probably knew a whereabouts.

Zhou Ran swallowed the last mouthful of porridge, and only replied, "I have something to do."

Zhou Huaning turned his head to look at Zhou Ran, his mouth squirmed a few times, but he still didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that the matter must be related to Huo Wendong.

Hey, the child has grown up, and I don't want to talk about things hidden in my heart.
