Chapter 7 Fighting against each other
The person who came was named Zhou Tong, Zhou Muxue's cousin, and the eldest son and grandson in the family.
Whenever family gatherings, he always likes to make things difficult for Song Li, and even gave him the title of the No. 1 Soft King in Luocheng.
"Mu Xue, grandpa is discharged from the hospital. It's okay if you don't go to pick him up. The dinner is still late. Do you still have grandpa in your heart?"
Zhou Muxue was mute and couldn't tell the pain. It was not that she didn't want to go, but that it was not her turn to go.
Although her surname is Zhou, because her father has no prospects, she has the lowest status in the Zhou family, and it is not her turn to do anything good.
"And you, Song Li, what's in your hand? It's not a gift for grandpa, or it's used to pack leftovers, too. Tonight is full of delicacies. You can't eat them normally, so remember to get more later."
Song Li was used to it and was not angry at all.
"Brother Tong, you are right. It's really the gift I prepared for my grandfather."
Zhou Tong laughed and said, "Damn, are you sick? Grandpa is discharged from the hospital. You can carry a thermal insulating jar as a gift. It's not just the soup made for grandpa."
"Brother Tong, you are right again. I made the soup with my own hands." Song Li smiled.
As soon as the words were finished, a burst of laughter came from all around.
Zhou Muxue's face was so shy that she blushed, and she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into it.
"Song Li, you are so funny. Grandpa has just recovered from a serious illness. You can cook a dozen or twenty yuan soup for him to drink. It's so unreasonable. I'll teach you a good class today so that you can know what gifts mean."
Zhou Tong sneered twice, took out an exquisite gift box, opened it, and it contained a red Ganoderma lucidum inside.
"See, a hundred-year-old blood Ganoderma lucidum, 550,000 yuan per flower, and even if you have money, you can't buy it." Zhou Tong held up Ganoderma lucidum and said proudly.
Song Li took a look and quickly retracted his eyes: "Oh, that's pretty good."
Zhou Tong obviously did not want to let Song Li go, and continued to shout: "Song Li, I saw that the red powder in the box was not there, and the blood Ganoderma lucidum fell off. You can buy hundreds of bowls of soup with just a little. If you don't have money, I'll give you some for free."
Song Li was too lazy to pay attention to Zhou Tong, so he turned his head and said nothing, which made the surrounding people burst into laughter, and all relatives regarded him as a joke.
Zhou Muxue originally made up her mind to ignore Song Li and let Zhou Tong joke, but when she thought that he could make changes for him, she suddenly felt a little reluctant.
She gritted her teeth and fought back: "Zhou Tong, you're enough. You are the Changsun. You have money at home. What's your business to give? What's more to show off your wealth? What's important is your heart. Just Song Li has this kind of heart."
Song Li was a little surprised.
Zhou Muxue actually talks for her.
"I'm showing off my wealth? Mu Xue, what do you say? I need to show off my wealth with a useless person. I'm so full that I just feel that he doesn't care about his grandfather. Also, he doesn't have money to buy gifts. Don't you have to? You can always take out a thousand dollars, or you don't have grandfather in your heart."
"Me, I..." Zhou Muxue was so anxious that she couldn't speak.
She couldn't get hundreds of thousands, but she still had a few thousand yuan. And she had already given the money to Song Li, but who knew he had prepared such a gift.
"What are you all laughing at? If you have any good things, I'll share them with the old man."
At this moment, an old man with gray hair slowly walked into the private room with the help of a middle-aged man.
This person is the head of the Zhou family, Mr. Zhou.
All the relatives stopped laughing and surrounded them, asking about the old man's physical condition, with an extremely respectful attitude.
Mr. Zhou is 78 years old this year. Although he has already handed over the family's career to his children and grandchildren, he still has the final decision-making power. He is a perfect role at home, and no one dares to disobey his wishes.
Since the old man has not made a will so far, all the descendants of the Zhou family are trying hard to show themselves, hoping to share more property in the future.
"Grandpa, Song Li prepared a big gift for you, saying that he wanted to surprise you."
After everyone sat down, Zhou Tong took the lead and pushed Song Li out.
"Song Li, I haven't seen you for a long time. Take a look at any gift." Mr. Zhou smiled.
Song Li said oh, pouring the soup into a bowl.
"Old man, this is the soup I made by myself, it's a cheaper price for you!"
Song Li is neither big nor small, and he doesn't care about other people's gaze at all.
There was a burst of discussion around him, all of whom were saying that Zhou Dahai was not, and he was not good at stewarding his son-in-law, and he didn't understand any politeness at all.
I gave me some broken soup and treated it as a treasure.
Zhou Muxue's family lowered their heads, with an awkward expression on their faces.
Especially Shen Qin, she felt even more angry.
On such an important occasion, Song Li gave him a bowl of soup and threw all his face away.
If it were Wu Haoran, it would definitely be various expensive supplements. She secretly decided to find an opportunity later to ask the old man to agree to their divorce.
Mr. Zhou took the bowl and took a few sips. Suddenly, his brows frowned, his eyes closed, and his expression of pain appeared.
Zhou Tong seized the opportunity and shouted: "Song Li, look at the good things you did. You are just a waste, you can't even wash clothes, and you dare to make soup for grandpa. I think you are boiling poison, what are you thinking about?"
There were also scoldings coming from around, and everyone was blaming Zhou Dahai and his family.
"Mu Xue, grandpa has just recovered from a serious illness. How could you let Song Li do this random thing? This is clearly a harm to grandpa."
"Zhou Dahai, what does your family mean and what surprises, I think it's clearly scared."
"Shen Qin, your son-in-law can't stand it, don't you? You can't teach him. Look at how uncomfortable your father is."
Everyone talked so much that Zhou Dahai and his family couldn't raise their heads.
Shen Qin couldn't bear it anymore and pointed at Song Li and cursed: "You useless waste, who told you to take your own initiative? Get out of here, you are not welcome."
"Good stuff, great replenishment!"
Just as everyone was scolding him, Mr. Zhou suddenly opened his eyes and without saying a word, he drank the soup in the bowl clean.
"Song Li, are there any more? I'll give it to me!" the old man shouted.
"It's gone, that's all. Do you think it's a vegetable market to buy vegetables, and you want to drink it and cook it yourself, or let your baby grandson do it!" Song Li snorted coldly.
Zhou Tong saw the old man's reaction and opened his mouth wide and his eyes widened.
"Grandpa, don't you think the medicine soup is hard to drink?"
"Zhou Tong, what do you know? This is a great tonic soup. Grandpa is savoring it. Unfortunately, it's just that. Song Li, you are intent."
The old man's attitude surprised everyone. The relatives who had cursed just now changed their attitudes instantly and turned to praise Song Li's skills.
Zhou Muxue was even more shocked and couldn't speak. She thought Song Li was not attentive, but she didn't expect that a mere bowl of soup would get the praise from her grandfather.
Only Chen Qin was still unsatisfied and was determined to let them get divorced.
"Old man, Brother Tong has also prepared a big gift for you!" Song Li fought back.
"Yes, let me show it to my grandfather!"
Zhou Tong respectfully handed the gift box on it and took out the bleeding Ganoderma lucidum.
Although Song Li's soup just now made me lose face, the blood Ganoderma lucidum he prepared was priceless and would definitely make my grandfather praise him.
"Grandpa, this is the blood Ganoderma lucidum I asked for for 550,000 yuan. You have just recovered from a serious illness and can be used to nourish your body."
550,000 per flower, very valuable.
All relatives made a sound of praise, praising Zhou Tong for being thoughtful.
Zhou Tong looked at Song Li proudly, his eyes full of disdain.
Chen Qin felt unhappy when she looked at the 550,000-yuan blood Ganoderma lucidum.
When Mu Xue married into the Wu family, it would be no problem to say that it was 550,000 Ganoderma lucidum, even one million Ganoderma lucidum.
Mr. Zhou was filled with joy and accepted the gift box happily.
"Zhou Tong, grandpa is grateful for your feelings. Don't buy such expensive gifts next time. Use the money to make the Zhou family's business stronger and bigger."
Just then, Song Li suddenly spoke.
"Blood Ganoderma lucidum is also called coffin bacteria. It grows under specific conditions after the coffin is buried underground and decays for a long time. Due to the harsh production environment, long production cycle, and extremely high medicinal value and collection value."
"According to the Treasure Book of Traditional Chinese Medicine, there are two types of blood Ganoderma lucidum, one is ordinary Ganoderma lucidum, with the upper part of the fungus umbrella red and the lower part of the fungus umbrella white, with a handle, but it is tasteless. The other is the real coffin bacteria, which are all blood red, sessile and smelly."
"Oh, I can't tell. You waste still understand Chinese medicine. Not bad. I am the authentic blood Ganoderma lucidum, sessile and delicious." Zhou Tong said.
"It is precisely because blood Ganoderma lucidum can be sold at a sky-high price that some illegal vendors take risks and soak ordinary Ganoderma lucidum in chemical agents to dye it red, pretending to be bloody Ganoderma lucidum. After eating this artificial hematopoietic Ganoderma lucidum, it will not only have no effect, but will also damage health."
Song Li pointed at Zhou Tong suddenly and emphasized his tone.
"Zhou Tong, you bought it too quickly and the chemical agent has not penetrated completely, so the powder is left in the box. I am good at eating soft rice, but you use inferior products as good ones and ignore grandpa's body, so what's the point?"
The shouts resounded throughout the hall,
