Chapter 48: The Third Son of the Liu Family

  "Honey, where are you?" A soft voice came from the other end of the phone.

  "Hey, who are you looking for?" Fang Xiaoru asked cautiously.

  "I'm looking for Xia Tian." The other side fell silent for a moment, then spoke again in that soft voice.

  "Hello, is this Auntie? My name is Wang Jie. Brother has gone out. What can I do for you?" Wang Jie said quickly.

  A soft laughter came from the other side: "So you're Wang Jie. Your elder brother has mentioned you to me."

  After a pause, another voice came from that side: "By the way, I'm Qiao Xiaoqiao. Do you know how to get in touch with your brother?"

  "Qiao Xiaoqiao? Are you really Qiao Xiaoqiao? The number one celebrity of Jianghai University, Qiao Xiaoqiao?" Fang Xiaoru suddenly exclaimed loudly, appearing very excited.

  "Sister-in-law, are you really Qiao Xiaoqiao? My brother often mentions your name, and we didn't believe it before!" Wang Jie was also stunned.

  "I think, in Jianghai City, no one dares to use this name yet." Qiao Xiaoqiao smiled lightly and immediately changed her tone, "Sorry, I have an urgent matter to find my husband, can you contact him?"

  "Miss Qiao, Xia Tian is with Dr. Liu in the summer, I have Dr. Liu's phone number here, I'll tell you the number now, you can call this number and should be able to find Xia Tian." Fang Xiao Ru said quickly.

  "Thank you," said Qiao Xiaoqiao.

  "No need to be polite, no need to be polite, Miss Qiao! I really admire you so much!" Fang Xiaoru was very excited.

  "I'm just an ordinary person, hehe, maybe I'll come to your flower shop in a few days." Qiao Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "Trouble you to give me the phone number now."

  "Oh, okay, okay!" Fang Xiaoru hastily nodded and then reported a string of numbers.

  "Thank you, see you next time." Qiao Xiaoqiao said after finishing this sentence, and then hung up the phone. Apparently, she was in a hurry to make another call.

  "I actually talked to Qiao Xiaoqiao, I actually talked to Qiao Xiaoqiao......" Fang Xiaoru kept repeating the same sentence over and over again.

  "Hey, Fang Xiaoru, are you out of your mind?" Wang Jie couldn't help but say.

  "Fatso, you're the one who's gone crazy!" Fang Xiaoru snapped back to reality and glared at Wang Jie fiercely. "Qiao Xiaoqiao is my idol!"

  "You'd better try to get on my good side from now on!" Wang Jie said with a smug expression.

  "What makes you think I want to fawn all over you?" Fang Xiaoru said irritably.

  "Qiao Xiaoqiao is my sister-in-law, and you're her fan, of course you have to fawn over me. I can make it easier for you to meet my sister-in-law, isn't that simple enough for you to understand?" Wang Jie said with a smug expression.

  "I'd rather just fawn over Xia Tian directly!" Fang Xiaoru shot a glance at Wang Jie.

  Wang Jie was suddenly enlightened, and this sentence is also correct!

  Looking at the old wooden house in front of him, he felt a bit novel in summer, not that he had never seen such a wooden house before. In fact, he lived in the mountains and also lived in this kind of wooden house. However, after coming down from the mountain, he really saw this style of house for the first time.

  "Yunman sister, is this your old home?" Xia Tian couldn't help but ask. He had initially thought they were going to Liu Yunman's suite in the Mingdian neighborhood, but instead, Liu Yunman had brought him to a suburb far from Jianghai City center.

  "That's right, this is our Liu family home, this old house has been built for over a hundred years." Liu Yunman nodded lightly.

  "Ah, over a hundred years?" Sun Xinxin was slightly surprised, "It's been that long, yet it still looks quite sturdy!"

  "Although it's over a hundred years old, the house was built with good wood back then, and it's been well-maintained over the years, so it's still very sturdy. I think even if we live here for another hundred years or more, there won't be any problem." Yulun Man smiled, "Let's go in first, Grandma is waiting for us!"

  Just as he walked through the gate, two familiar figures appeared in Xia Tian's line of sight. They were Old Lady Ning and the middle-aged beautiful woman he had met yesterday. Come to think of it, although Xia Tian knew that this middle-aged beauty was his future mother-in-law, he still didn't know what her name was.

  "Dr. Xia, you're here! It's an honor to have you visit us!" Old Lady Ning warmly welcomed him, then turned to Sun Xiangxiang, "And this must be Dr. Xia's girlfriend, Miss Sun? Miss Sun, you're so lucky, much luckier than our own little Man."

  "Hello, sir." Sun Xinxin didn't know what else to say and just gave a very polite greeting.

  "Grandma, don't say that anymore, let's just have Xia Tian show everyone first!" Liu Yunman said somewhat anxiously.

  "Xiao Man, Xia Shen Yi has just arrived at our house, of course, he needs to rest first." Ning Lao Tai Tai frowned, "How can we let him work as soon as he arrives?"

  "Grandma, I'm fine. As Yunman said, let me take a look at everyone's condition first." Xia Tian said casually, he was eager to cure the people of the Liu family as soon as possible, and then Liu Yunman would be his wife.

  "Since Dr. Xia said so, okay, please follow me." Old Lady Ning hesitated for a moment and nodded, she also hoped to see her family members quickly, but didn't want to cause Summer's dissatisfaction.

  Under the leadership of Old Lady Ning, summer quickly arrived at the inner hall, but in the hall, there were already seven or eight people waiting.

  "Hurry up and come meet the great doctor Xia!" Old Lady Ning beckoned with her hand, then pointed at Xia Tian, "This is the successor of the Reverse Heaven Eight Needles, Xia Tian, the divine doctor Xia!"

  "Summer Medicine God." Everyone greeted Xia Tian together, but Xia Tian clearly felt several suspicious glances.

  "Summer God Doctor, our Liu family has always been sparse in population, but in this generation, Yun Man has more than a dozen brothers and sisters. Unfortunately, they were all born with that illness in the Liu family. If Summer God Doctor can cure them, then our Liu family will become a truly prominent family in twenty years." Old Lady Ning's eyes were filled with hope, she had always wanted to see the Liu family prosper for decades, and now it seemed like her wish was about to come true.

  Every member of the Liu family inevitably inherits that strange disease, and those who are lucky can live to be over 40 years old, while some can only live to be over 20 years old. At first, Liu Yunman's father had passed away before he was 30 years old, and now Liu Yunman is already showing a trend of refreshing the youngest death age in the Liu family.

  Before Liu Yunman's grandfather, the Liu family had been single-handedly passed down for over a dozen generations, and their population was quite thin. However, Mrs. Ning gave birth to three sons and one daughter in one breath. Unfortunately, only one of the three sons is still alive now, while the daughter has been bedridden for over a decade.

  The Liu family had over a dozen brothers and sisters in this generation, all thanks to one person's efforts - Liu Yunman's third uncle, Liu Qi.

  At that time, the three brothers of the Liu family, the eldest and second were trying to solve the problem of genetic disease, while the third brother, Liu Qi, was busy finding women everywhere. In the end, he deceived five women into giving birth to children for him, and in the end, he had ten children by himself, which is equivalent to a stud horse.

  "Grandma, I'll try my best, but didn't you say Yunman has over a dozen siblings? Why do I only see one?" Xia Tian was somewhat perplexed.

  There were over a dozen people in the hall, and apart from him and another man, they were all women. This other man was Liu Yunman's third uncle, Liu Qi.

  In the summer, Xia Tian stared at Liu Qi, feeling a little jealous. It wasn't that he was envious of his good looks - this guy wasn't handsome at all. He was thin and short, not even 1.7 meters tall. As for his facial features, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he had a pointed mouth and a monkey-like face. Yet, standing beside him were five beautiful women, including one woman in her thirties who was holding the hand of a pretty little girl around ten years old.

  It's really enviable, how can he have more than his wife? He now has only two wives, the immortal sister and Qiao Xiaoqiao, even if you add Xiang Jie, it's just three, let alone Liu Yunman and that policewoman sister, they haven't been won over yet!

  "It's like this, they're all reading books, but both will be back in two days." Old Lady Ning explained, "Xiao Man told me that you can only treat one person a day, and we have two people here who inherited strange illnesses. If you don't mind, can you take a look at them first?"

  "In the summer, you should help San Shu look at it first, San Shu's situation is also very serious, I'm afraid..." Liu Yunman didn't continue speaking.

  Xiatian understood her meaning, he knew Liu Yunman was worried that Liu Qi would end up like her and couldn't be cured.

  "Alright, let me take your pulse first." Xia Tian was actually quite unwilling. This guy had grown up like this, why did he have more wives than him?

  When Xia Tian was taking Liu Qi's pulse in the summer, five beautiful eyes were also staring at Xia Tian. The owners of these five beautiful eyes were naturally Liu Qi's five wives.

  "Doctor Brother, is my dad okay?" A clear and tender voice came from the side, Xia Tian turned his head and saw a pair of bright and innocent eyes, which belonged to that pretty little girl.

  "Oh, it's nothing, he won't die." Xia Tian withdrew his hand, having already understood Liu Qi's situation. Compared to Liu Yunman, Liu Qi's condition was much better.

  "Really?" The little girl was delighted, "Immortal Doctor Brother, then quickly cure my father's illness!"

  "This will take a little while longer." Xia Tian scratched his head.

  "Why wait any longer?" The little girl looked at Xia Tian with her beautiful big eyes, "Brother God Doctor, are you cheating? Mom said that cheaters aren't good kids!"

  Summer suddenly became depressed, being told by a little girl that he was deceived, it's really too humiliating.

  Fortunately, Liu Yunman came to the rescue at this time: "Hanh Han, don't talk nonsense, brother just helped sister cure her illness yesterday and still needs to rest for a while."

  "Is that so?" Liu Qi sneered, "Yun Man, it's not that Third Uncle doesn't believe you, but this kid is really some kind of divine doctor?"
