Chapter 153 What a coincidence
When it was almost noon, Xu Boan was still preparing to go home for dinner.
Of course, he didn’t believe a word of the miracle medicine prescription told by his mother, Tang Rongzhi.
Not to mention that he is still single. Even if he has a good match, it is impossible to decide whether to have a child with just a pill.
Especially after he studied the medical books passed down by the Zhang family, he became more familiar with the principles.
Let alone having a boy or a girl, even if it can cure infertility, it is already an amazing prescription.
But Xu Boan would definitely not say these words to his mother.
The reason is simple.
I told her but didn’t listen, listened to her but didn’t understand, she understood but didn’t do it, she did it but she did it wrong, she didn’t admit it when she was wrong, and finally made the old man unhappy, which in turn affected the mother and child. Relationships affect one's filial piety.
Since childhood, especially after adulthood, Xu Boan has summed up experience.
So, it’s fine if mother is happy, let her be.
Anyway, if you are filial and filial, if your parents are in a good mood, you will be considered filial.
Lunch was cooked by Chen Pingping and Tang Rongzhi together.
Originally, Chen Pingping refused to let Tang Rongzhi do anything, but she couldn't overcome Tang Rongzhi's stubbornness, so they started cooking together.
Seeing that Tang Rongzhi was cooking a dish of pot stickers and tofu, Chen Pingping hurriedly went up to help put the dishes on the plate, and said with a smile: "Auntie, you can go and have a rest, I will do the rest. "
Tang Rongzhi simply let go of the spatula in his hand and said stubbornly: "How can that be done? Logically speaking, you are a guest. I should cook all the dishes and entertain you. How can I always trouble you? . ”
The old couple didn’t know at all that Xu Boan paid to hire Chen Pingping. They thought that the relationship between the two was just a transition from good friends to boyfriend and girlfriend, so they were naturally embarrassed to deal with Chen Pingping.
Xu Bo'an's father, Xu Jiancheng, also said: "Yes, Xiao Chen, it's time for you to take a rest. You've been busy working so hard these past two days to greet us. How can we be so embarrassed?"
Chen Pingping smiled cleverly and said: "Uncle and aunt, I have spent the past two days playing with you, so why bother? You two are older and should take a rest. If you let Boan watch for a while, Even if I ask you to cook, you will have to say something to me!”
Chen Pingping’s words meant something, but in the eyes of the two old people, they thought it was the kind of nagging between lovers.
Tang Rongzhi frowned and said: "If you rebel against him, you'll be rewarded! Pingping, if he dares to bully you, tell me and see how I can deal with this bastard!"
Chen Pingping smiled very reassuringly: " I know, aunt, then I'll thank you first. Okay, then you can take a rest. If you are tired, who will support me?" As she spoke, Chen Pingping took it from Tang Rongzhi's hand calmly. Spatula.
Soon, a table full of delicious, tasty and delicious dishes was placed on the table.
Chen Pingping's cooking skills are good, and Tang Rongzhi understands the tastes of her children. This table of dishes aroused Xu Bo'an's appetite. He rarely put down his chopsticks after eating two bowls of rice.
Xu Bo'an was even more happy when he heard his parents chatting happily about what they had seen and heard during this trip.
At this age, it is already a very happy thing for parents to be happy.
It seems that hiring Chen Pingping at a high price is still a very wise choice.
A young person might not be as considerate as Chen Pingping and make the elderly feel happy.
If you hire a professional nanny, you will definitely be busy with the work and not have much thought about the elderly person’s feelings.
It is very rare for a person as exquisite as Chen Pingping to be attracted by Tang Rongzhi and spend some money to invite her over.
Sometimes, talking about money does yield results much faster than talking about relationships.
That’s why many big guys who are not short of money say: In this world, problems that can be solved with money are not problems.
After eating, Chen Pingping skillfully took the dishes and chopsticks to wash them. This time, Tang Rongzhi did not argue with her, but was slightly polite and helped put away the rice bowls. He ran out of the kitchen, ran into his room as if to offer a treasure, and found a piece of paper.
"Bo'an, take a look, this is the recipe I got from a master in another temple for you. It cost me more than three thousand! It's very clever!"
The paper is a somewhat retro palm-sized note paper.
There are more than ten lines of words written on it.
Otherwise Xu Bo'an is well versed in Chinese medicine knowledge and can even guess at a rough idea. I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to recognize all the words on it!
As expected, the medicine on this prescription is of little use.
To be effective, it is similar to the effect of Jianweixiaoshi tablets plus Liuwei Dihuang pills.
At most, it can serve as a digestion and stagnation medicine, Jianweixiaoshi tablets, and Qi-enhancing pills. It has the effect of soreness and weakness in waist and knees, relaxing meridians and activating meridians.
If taking this kind of medicine can guarantee the birth of a boy, it will be really outrageous and "unreasonable".
"Mom, can you understand the words on this?" Xu Boan chatted with his mother with a smile.
Tang Rongzhi pointed to the top line and read: "Pseudostellariae, tangerine peel, yam, fried malt, hawthorn...ah, I don't remember the rest, but the doctor said, take it to the hospital or It's a pharmacy. A professional doctor can definitely understand it."
Xu Bo'an nodded and said, "That makes sense. I'll just take the prescription and go get some medicine to try."
"Why did you take it away! You don't even have a partner to try now! What if you lose it later? I have to keep this recipe. When you get married later, I will help Just take the medicine." "Mom, can I throw away a piece of paper? How about I take it and make a copy?"
"That's not possible. , I got it with great difficulty from the master. I’m telling you, it’s just because the master thinks I’m destined, otherwise he wouldn’t give it to me!”
Xu Bo’an! There was a sigh of relief, it was more than fate, I think there was a "Motoko".
If it weren’t for the more than three thousand incense money that opened the way, would it be your turn to be destined?
Xu Boyan was thinking about it, so naturally he would not say it out loud. He just smiled and said, "Okay, you are right. How about I take a photo of the head office with my phone?"< br>
Tang Rongzhi nodded, walked closer to Xu Boan and said, "I think Pingping's figure is very fertile. Why don't you go grab some of this medicine and take it first, so that you are prepared."
Xu Bo'an smiled bitterly and said: "Mom, how can you urge people to take medicine? No matter how useful this thing is, it is not a magic elixir. You can't say that it will be effective immediately after taking it."
Tang Rongzhi said seriously: " Don't believe it, kid, that master was very popular. When people in Wuyang Wuyang asked for a prescription, I almost couldn't get in. Moreover, the master was very confident. The master said, if the medicine doesn't work, just take it. I didn’t give birth to a boy within three years! I immediately gave him a full refund! If he didn’t have such determination and confidence, who would dare to make a profit at a loss?”
Good guy, what you said sounds reasonable.
But if you think about it carefully, you have nothing to lose.
Even if the male to female birth ratio is one to one, you will definitely make a profit without losing half of it, and you will also have three years of free interest-free use of the money.
This is still the lightest routine.
What’s even more frightening is that after three years, can you still find her?
If I can’t find it, who can I go to to refund the money?
Even if you really find it, what will happen if people say that the money you paid was for incense, or that you simply defaulted on the debt?
Is it possible that you also issued an invoice indicating the use?
Xu Bo'an still had a smile on his face. Even after listening to his mother's words, he nodded slightly and agreed: "That's right, you are indeed somewhat capable."
Tang Rongzhi said happily : "No! Okay, let's take a quick photo. I'll go to the prescription in the afternoon to grab some medicine and see the effect. The master also said that taking it regularly can prolong life, relax menstruation and activate blood circulation!"
Xu Bo'an Anxin Li even sneered at what he said.
I eat every day to prolong my life. Who knows if your medicine will have any effect?
"I understand. If the company is not so busy in the afternoon, I will just go and get the medicine." Xu Bo'an chatted obediently, and then his mother entered the bedroom with satisfaction and started lunch break mode.
Chen Pingping did not stay at Xu Bo'an's house. Not long after washing the dishes, she got dressed and greeted Xu Bo'an who was sitting with her father in the living room: "Uncle, Bo'an, over there in my shop I have something to do, so I have to go over. What do you want to eat tonight? I will bring you some food to eat."
Xu Jiancheng was not good at words. When he heard Chen Pingping's question, he said hurriedly and politely: " It doesn’t have to be so troublesome. We usually just drink some millet porridge at night. Bo’an loves it and says it nourishes the stomach.”
Chen Pingping said with a smile: “Okay, I will. I know, uncle, there happens to be a good restaurant over there. The steamed vegetables are delicious and good for your stomach. I’ll pack them up and give them a try.”
“Oh, yeah. It’s really not that troublesome,” Xu Jiancheng said politely.
"It's okay, uncle, I'm just on my way." Chen Pingping said with a smile while changing her shoes.
"How embarrassing, Bo'an, go and see Xiao Chen off quickly."
Xu Bo'an stood up in response, nodded and said: "I understand, Dad, you and my mother "Get some sleep, it's getting late. I'll go to the company to see if there's nothing wrong. I'll come back early."
Xu Jiancheng also knows that his son is a leader in the company, and he also understands that he is very busy. After a few simple reminders to drive slower, he said nothing more.
Out of the villa, before Xu Boan could speak, Chen Pingping blushed and said, "Auntie, tell you about the prescription."
Xu Boan nodded and said, "The old lady is a little bit After all, I am so old."
Chen Pingping said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I should have stopped my aunt, but seeing her anxious look, I couldn't bear to say any more. What's wrong?"
Xu Bo'an smiled and shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as she is happy."
Chen Pingping felt much better when she saw that Xu Bo'an was indeed not angry. : "I don't know who will be so lucky to marry into your family in the future. My uncle and aunt are very nice people. They also said on the way that if you have children in the future, you won't have to worry about it at all. You have one child and they and the other two will take care of each other." , give birth to two children and bring a pair!"
Xu Bo'an knew as soon as he heard that the old couple still regarded Chen Pingping as their daughter-in-law.
Naturally, Xu Bo'an couldn't respond to these words.
He just smiled and said: "I've really troubled you these past two days. In my opinion, you should rest for two days. There is no need to run here. My mother can't stay idle either. You She wouldn't be comfortable if she wasn't allowed to do anything."
Chen Pingping raised her eyebrows and said, "How can I do that? My aunt has been even more tired these past two days, so we can't let her get tired. Otherwise, I would have too much conscience to pay you such a high salary. Moreover, the business in my store has not been very good recently, so I have to cherish this well-paying job."
Xu Bo'an laughed. He shook his head and said: "You are too modest. The passenger flow of Wanda Plaza is very large. How can you operate a store as big as yours there..."
Halfway through the words, Xu Bo'an's The sound stopped suddenly.
Xu Boan looked at the person blocking the road in front of him and sighed helplessly.
Chen Pingping, who was walking with Xu Boan with her head lowered, also noticed Xu Boan's abnormality. As soon as she raised her head subconsciously, her expression changed, and she greeted with some embarrassment: "Xiaoxue! What a coincidence."
