Chapter 49: Sleep with your wife and spend her money
"Third son, what nonsense are you spouting?" Old Lady Ning scolded sternly, "How can you speak to Dr. Xia like that?"
"Mom, I haven't even said anything about you yet!" Liu Qi seemed to be unafraid of Old Lady Ning, "Yun Man is young and naive, it's normal for her to be deceived. But you're an experienced elder, how could you also fall for it?"
"Are you saying I'm old and muddled?" Old Lady Ning trembled with rage, "San'er, you've really become something now, thinking of taking charge, are you?"
"Mom, you've got the wrong idea. As long as you're still around, it's not up to me to be in charge." Liu Qi had a sarcastic smile on his face, "But as a father, I should have no problem being in charge of my own children, right?"
"Third Uncle, I've personally verified Xia Tian's medical skills in the summer, what else do you doubt?" Liu Yunman couldn't help but interject.
"Yun Man, you said you personally verified it, so I'll ask you, did he cure your illness?" Liu Qi asked.
"Third Uncle, although the summer hasn't completely cured my illness yet, my condition has clearly improved. I don't even have headaches anymore. Can't you see that? Am I still trying to deceive you?" Liu Yunman was a bit annoyed. After much difficulty, she had finally found someone who could cure the strange illness of the Liu family, and she had even gone so far as to offer herself to Xia Tian in exchange for his help. She had invited Xia Tian to the Liu residence, expecting that they would soon be able to put an end to this nightmare once and for all. But just at this critical juncture, Liu Qi suddenly appeared out of nowhere, throwing a wrench into the works.
"I don't know what tricks he's playing, but let me make it clear: unless he can completely cure your illness, I won't let him treat me!" Liu Qi said sternly. "All these years, I've never seen a doctor and I'm still alive at 45. You people are always running around looking for miracle doctors here and there, what's the result? Your father died before he was 30, and you're not even going to make it to 30! I don't want my children to follow in your footsteps!"
"Third Uncle, what do you mean by this? Do you think I want to harm you all?" Liu Yunman said with some indignation.
"Yun Man, I didn't say that. I just cherish my own life and the lives of my six sons and four daughters. I don't want them to be killed by quack doctors!" Liu Qi snorted, "They can live happily for 40 or 50 years, which is better than being tormented every day and not even living to be 30!"
Liu Qi ignored the pale-faced Old Lady Ning, as well as Liu Yunman's flushed face, and turned to Xia Tian: "You little brat, I don't care if you're a divine doctor or not. In any case, unless you can cure Yunman, don't even think about making me believe in you!"
"Idiot!" Xia Tian muttered two words.
"You, you little brat, dare to scold me?" Liu Qi was furious.
"I'm not scolding you, you're originally an idiot." Xia Tian said slowly, "If you weren't an idiot, how could you say such idiotic words?"
"In the summer, one face disdainfully said: 'Why should I make you believe me? Do you think I want to cure your illness that much? You look like a monkey, just looking at you makes me uncomfortable. Whether you live or die has nothing to do with me! If you don't want me to cure you, then I won't cure you either!'"
"You, you actually said I look like a monkey! In my youth, I was more handsome than Pan An and Song Yu..." Liu Qi's face turned red with rage as he pointed at Xia Tian.
"Third son, shut your mouth!" Old Lady Ning suddenly shouted sternly. "Fine, you don't want to be treated for your illness, that's okay, and it's also okay if your children aren't treated either. But now, Xia Shen Yi is my guest, and if you're not respectful to him, then you're not being respectful to me! Now, get out!"
Old Lady Ning took a few steps forward in the summer, bowing deeply: "Summer God of Medicine, I'm very sorry, please forgive me for this, and don't refuse to treat other people from the Liu family because of this."
"Yes, in the summer, my sister and my second uncle's children, as well as my aunt, they all need you to cure their illnesses, you can't get angry and leave!" Liu Yunman also said hastily.
"Grandma, Yunman sister, don't worry about me, I won't get angry with this monkey!" Xia Tian said with a smile, "Getting angry with him would be beneath my dignity!"
"Hey kid, what are you talking about? You little scoundrel who's always cheating and scamming people out of their money and women, do you dare to discuss status with me, your third uncle?" Liu Qi was so angry that he found it amusing. At this moment, he was even more convinced that Xia Tian was a swindler. If he were really a divine doctor, he would have gotten angry and left already.
"Shut up, you dead monkey! Believe it or not, I'll beat you up!" Xia Tian was getting annoyed, what's wrong with this guy?
"Doctor Brother, don't hit my dad, or I'll scold you!" Suddenly, the little girl named Hanhan said this.
Summer was annoyed, he was actually threatened by a little girl. It seems that his dislike for little girls is correct, little girls are indeed troublesome. Hitting her would be bullying the weak, and he would feel ashamed. As for being rude to her, the little girl doesn't meet his aesthetic standards, no breasts, no buttocks, really nothing worth being rude about.
"Alright, I won't hit him because he's pitiful." Xia Tian felt a bit bored, "Sister Yunman, if there's nothing else, I'll head back first!"
"Little kid, you actually said I'm pitiful?" Liu Qi was indignant, "No one has ever said I'm pitiful, everyone just envies me. I have five wives, six sons and four daughters. I have a family-owned company worth over a billion. What about you, little kid? What do you have?"
"Don't you know how pitiful you are?" Xia Tian looked at Liu Qi with a bit of surprise, "You have five beautiful wives, but you're already unable to enjoy them because you're no longer capable. Although they haven't given you a green hat yet, in just half a year, the hat on your head will be able to crush you to death. Oh, you say you have money, but you can only live for two more years at most. After you die, others will sleep with your wives and spend your money. Aren't you pitiful?"
"Kid, what are you talking nonsense?"
"Sir, don't talk nonsense..."
"Yun Man, where did you find this person? Why are they talking nonsense?"
For a moment, the hall was in an uproar. Liu Qi's eyes blazed with anger, and his five wives also accused Xia Tian, who had implicated them with her words.
"Don't listen to the divine doctor's words, and suffer in front of your eyes." Xia Tian chuckled and turned his head to look at that beautiful young woman, "I'm not talking nonsense, this beautiful sister has a number in her heart, didn't he spend the night with you last night?"
"You..." The beautiful young woman's face suddenly turned bright red, somewhat embarrassed and surprised.
"Listen up, kid! If you keep spouting nonsense in our house, I'll call the cops and have you arrested!" Liu Qi bellowed.
"Third son, this old house is my property, when did it become yours?" Old Lady Ning said coldly. "I just told you to get out, didn't you hear me? If you didn't hear me, then I'll say it again, take your family and get out!"
"Mom, why are you willing to believe an outsider but not me?" Liu Qi was extremely angry.
"Didn't you just say you were going to call the police? If you don't get out, I'll have you thrown out!" Old Lady Ning said coldly.
"Let's go!" Liu Qi glared at Xia Tian with a scowl and waved his hand, "We're going home!"
Liu Qi left with six beautiful women, five big and one small, while the Liu family's old mansion suddenly became much quieter.
"Summer God Doctor, I'm really sorry." After Liu Qi and others left, Mrs. Ning's face also improved a lot.
"Grandma, what's going on with Third Uncle?" Liu Yunman still couldn't figure it out until now.
"He's been holding a grudge against me!" Old Lady Ning snorted, "Because of the pharmaceutical factory business, he's always had a grudge against me. I don't blame him for that, but now he's actually using my grandson and granddaughter's lives to threaten me? I won't forgive him!"
Shaking her head, Old Lady Ning sighed: "Summer God of Medicine, our family has been unfortunate and offended many people, please don't blame us."
"No big deal, I don't mind." Xia Tian seemed very magnanimous on the surface, but in his heart, he was thinking that this way, he wouldn't have to cure so many people's illnesses, and Liu Yun Man could become his wife even sooner. This was still a good thing for him!
"In the summer, since no one wants to get sick, why don't we just go back first?" Sun Xinxin suddenly spoke up in a soft voice. Before that, she had been silent beside him, because she didn't know what to say either, and she was completely ignorant of the whole thing."
Xiatian hadn't spoken yet, but Liu Yunman hastily interjected: "Xiatian, wait a minute."
Turning her head to look at Old Lady Ning, Liu Yunman softly suggested: "Grandma, would you like to ask Xia Tian for help to take a look at Aunt's situation?"
"Meng'er?" Old Lady Ning hesitated for a moment, "But Meng'er's situation is different from yours..."
"Grandma, although Aunt's illness is different from ours, it might be cured in the summer too!" Liu Yunman couldn't help but say, "Aunt has been in a coma for over ten years, no matter what, we have to try anyway?"
The old lady hesitated for a moment and then nodded: "Xiao Man, you're right, let's give it a try!"
Seeing Old Lady Jing nod, Liu Yunman let out a sigh of relief and turned to look at Xia Tian: "Xia Tian, you go help me take a look at my aunt first, then I'll send you and Xinxin back, okay?"
In the summer, there was originally nothing urgent, and he naturally wouldn't refuse. However, in his heart, he was a bit curious. He already knew that Liu Yunman's aunt had been in a coma for over a decade, and he found it hard to imagine what someone who had been in a coma for so many years would look like.
A few minutes later, under the leadership of Liu Yunman, Xia Tian walked into a very spacious bedroom. The bedroom was decorated warmly and beautifully, it was obviously a girl's boudoir. In the middle of a big bed, a girl lay quietly there.
The girl's appearance was similar to Liu Yunman, but she looked younger than Liu Yunman. Her face still had a few childish features and was more delicate and weak. Her snow-white skin looked normal, without the slightest pallor of a patient. She closed her eyes slightly, breathing gently, and her raven-black hair spread out on the pillow, giving off a lazy charm that added to her allure.
Just looking at her like this, the beautiful girl seems just like that sleeping princess, not at all like a patient. When Xia Tian first saw her in the summer, he also found it hard to believe that she was actually someone who had been unconscious for sixteen years.
She is Liu Meng, the aunt of Liu Yunman. Liu Meng has been weak and sickly since childhood, and at the age of 16, she became bedridden. Four years later, she fell into a deep coma and remained in bed for 16 years. Calculating her age, she should be 36 now. However, Liu Yunman said that from the time she lay in bed to the present, a full 20 years have passed, but her appearance has not changed at all.
Liu Yunman gently lifted a corner of the quilt and pulled out one of Liu Meng's hands. Xia Tian didn't hesitate, and two fingers hooked onto it. The next second, his face revealed an uncontrollable ecstasy!
