Chapter 266

Lian Zhong quickly called his wife and said, "Come back to see the girl soon. She misses you."

Wang Yuefang was so happy when she heard that her daughter missed her.

"I'll go back right away." Li Jiandong heard it clearly, it was excitement.

It must be that Lian Qiao was also cold to her mother before.

"That's better. She still acts a bit like a mother." The old man obviously forgave them a little.

"Dad, I'm sorry. I also want to learn Chinese medicine from you, but I don't have the talent. I do the raw material business just to sell more medicinal materials and promote the spirit of Chinese medicine."

Lian Zhong has not had a good talk with his father for so many years. In fact, although Lian Zhong did not study Chinese medicine, he has been engaged in the Chinese medicine industry and has not forgotten his roots.

Wang Yuefang came back soon.

"Dad, I'm back."

Wang Yuefang was so happy. For so many years, she didn't dare to come unless the old man gave the order.

Now I am very happy to see my daughter and the old man, but it’s a pity that Lian Qiao is not close to her mother.

I just nodded and said, "Sister, Mom nags about you every day, why don't you call me Mom?"

Lian Feng was angry. His sister didn't even call him mom. Mom would be sad when she went back.

But Lianqiao couldn't open his mouth. He hadn't called "Mommy and Daddy" for many years, and now he couldn't do it anymore.

"Lianqiao, come here, look, this is your mom, your dad, call them."

Li Jiandong asked Lian Qiao to call for help, but Lian Qiao was embarrassed and couldn't do anything.

"It doesn't matter. We are the ones who let the child down. We were wrong. Don't force the child. If he doesn't want to scream, then he doesn't have to."

Wang Yuefang understands her daughter. She thinks it is all because of her that her daughter is so frustrated. If she had not started her own business, it would have been much better if her daughter was still by her side.

"Grandpa, I have something else to do, so I'm leaving first." Lian Qiao had tears in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was resentful towards her parents.

At this time, Li Jiandong understood, but Lian Qiao's parents did not understand and felt that they did nothing wrong.

Although I haven't brought Lian Qiao with me for all these years, she has enough food and clothing. Isn't that enough?
Although the mother felt that she owed her daughter something and expressed understanding when she saw that she was unwilling to call anyone, Li Jiandong still felt that Lian Qiao's parents did not realize their mistake.

"Don't blame Lian Qiao. It's because you as parents didn't do a good job." Grandpa Lian said with a sigh.

Looking at Lian Qiao's back, I feel a little distressed.

"Don't worry, old man. This meal will definitely bring you a happy reunion." After saying that, Li Jiandong went to see Lian Qiao.

"Master, why do mom and dad only love my younger brother?"

What Lian Qiao didn't understand was why she had to accompany her grandfather while her younger brother could stay with their parents.

Although my grandfather was a very nice person, I had been called a wild child by others more than once.

I just can't understand why the love my grandfather gives me cannot be equated with that of my parents.

"Child, your parents love you very much, otherwise they wouldn't have come back just because you called them."

Li Jiandong explained.

"They are very rich. They could have taken me and my brother with them and provided for us. Why did they leave me behind?"

This is what Lian Qiao is struggling with. She and her brother are twins, a boy and a girl, but their parents chose her brother.

"In fact, your father's idea is very simple. He hopes that you will be healthy and happy, so he doesn't want you to have the pressure of being the successor. They love you."

Li Jiandong kept explaining.

"Besides, if it weren't for Grandpa, how could you have learned so much knowledge of Chinese medicine and have such great abilities? All of this is destined by heaven."

Li Jiandong hopes Lian Qiao understands that no matter whether her parents love her or not, she must love herself and know what she wants.

Lian Qiao nodded, not quite understanding, and stopped talking.

"Okay, just let it take its course. Just go back and have your meal." Li Jiandong comforted the child.

"From now on you will be my apprentice. I will cooperate with your parents, and you will slowly find out whether your parents love you or not."

Li Jiandong hopes Lian Qiao can let go of his hatred.

Lian Qiao nodded and prepared to eat. Now that her parents were back, having a meal with them would be considered filial piety. After all, they gave birth to her.

"Lianqiao, look at the new dress your mother bought you."

Lian Qiao took the skirt and said thank you.

"We are mother and daughter, child. Don't thank me. It's all my duty."

Wang Yuefang hopes her daughter is happy, but her daughter is not happy.

"Let's eat. The family hasn't eaten together for a long time." The old man said with a smile.

The old man was very happy that day. He was happy when he made his granddaughter happy.

"Grandpa, I must eat more today." Lian Feng began to please his grandfather.

Old man Lian nodded, "Yes, eat more. You see, you are not even as tall as your sister."

The grandfather is also worried about his grandson. The couple has always been busy with work, and the child has not been able to eat and drink enough. Now it is all right. The child is not growing.

So short, half a head shorter than her sister.

"Hurry up and eat, Lianqiao, you should eat too." Li Jiandong has always taken care of Lianqiao's feelings and feels that it is really not easy for Lianqiao. He hopes that Lianqiao can have a happy meal time.
"Lianqiao, you like this." Wang Yuefang kept picking up food for Lianqiao.

Lian Qiao was very unhappy because her mother's dishes were all her younger brother's favorites, and none of them were her favorites.
“Sorry, I don’t like these.

Lian Qiao was a little angry.

"This isn't for you. It's for your brother. This is for you."

The mother took another bowl from the side and gave it to her daughter.

"Lianqiao, this is your favorite food. Here you go."

Seeing the bowl full of her favorite food, Lian Qiao cried.

"Thank you, Mom, for knowing what I want to eat."

The old man also laughed. This is what being a mother is like. As long as the mother and daughter are doing well, she will be happy.

Although Li Jiandong was found as a master for Lian Qiao, her own parents are still the best.

I am old now and can’t accompany Lianqiao for much longer. For Lianqiao’s sake, I must no longer be separated from my son and daughter-in-law.

The meal was a very pleasant one. Li Jiandong knew that the family had reconciled. The mother loved her daughter, the grandfather loved his granddaughter, and So loved his son and daughter-in-law. The family was extremely happy.

Perhaps this is the happiest thing for Li Jiandong, being able to help a broken family get back together and be happy again, this is where his value lies.

"Mr. Lian, let's talk business."

Li Jiandong saw that it was getting late and it was time for him to go back.

"Mr. Li, I told you I would give you the cost price."

Lian Zhong felt that he should do so, after all, he was his daughter's master and her father's friend.

Li Jiandong is also a particular person and does not want to take advantage of others. "This is the price of the manufacturer I cooperated with before. Take a look."

Li Jiandong took out the price list and showed it to Lian Zhong.

Lian Zhong and his wife were surprised. "This price is the market price. No, we can't give you this price. This price is too high."

Wang Yuefang said quickly.

After all, this person's daughter and father-in-law like him, so we can't make money from him.

"We are all businessmen, and we are all doing business. There is really no need to do that. It's not easy for you either, and you all have to make money. This is the price I originally offered, and I will give it to you at the same price."

After Li Jiandong finished speaking, the Lian Zhong couple laughed.

But the old man had no idea how to explain it.

The Lianzhong couple looked at the old man tentatively.

The old man doesn't understand business, but since Li Jiandong doesn't care, he doesn't care either.

"Why are you looking at me? Make the decision on your own." The old man found it funny to see his son and daughter-in-law being afraid of him.

"It's settled. Don't feel any psychological burden. You must spend more time with the elderly and children."

Li Jiandong instructed Lian Zhong and his wife.

The couple nodded and said they would take good care of the child.

"Thank you, Mr. Li. Our family is back together thanks to you." Wang Yuefang said with tears in her eyes.

Li Jiandong smiled and said, "Business is boring. It's getting late. I should go back. Let's discuss the matter of the Chinese medicine factory later."

Li Jiandong felt that the Chinese medicine factory could cooperate with the Lian family.

They are a family of traditional Chinese medicine, so their medicinal materials are of guaranteed quality.

If they can identify real medicinal materials from fake ones, they can also buy good ones.

Li Jiandong smiled and thought that he must train Lian Qiao well. Lian Qiao would be his right-hand man and the Chinese medicine factory would need his help in the future.

"Lian Qiao, see your master off, and then go to see your master tomorrow." The old man didn't want Lian Qiao to stay with him anymore. He knew that if Lian Qiao stayed with his son and daughter-in-law, she would be bullied by her younger brother. She could only feel at ease if she stayed with Li Jiandong.

Lian Zhong and Wang Yuefang felt uncomfortable when they heard what their father said.

"Dad, actually, if we go to North City, Lianqiao can live at home."

Wang Yuefang hopes her daughter can live with her
After all, I owe my daughter so much over the years, and I want to ease the relationship with her.

The son didn't want his sister to go home, "Mom, you and Dad are not at home most of the time. If Lian Qiao goes back, it won't be appropriate for us to be alone together."

The old man frowned when he heard this. This grandson had been spoiled by the couple.

No matter what, Lian Qiao is his sister, so how can he call her by her full name?

"How can you talk like that? You also called her Lianqiao. She's your sister."

Wang Yuefang saw her father-in-law's expression and quickly scolded her son.

Lian Qiao also lowered her head and said nothing, and it was obvious that she didn't like her younger brother very much.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will go with my master and study hard." Lian Qiao expressed her wish. Lian Zhong and Wang Yuefang stopped talking.

"Don't worry, I will treat Lian Qiao as my own granddaughter."

Li Jiandong said with a smile that he really liked the girl Lian Qiao.

However, he could see that the Lian Zhong couple were looking forward to easing their relationship with their daughter.

"Mr. Li, I'll leave Lian Qiao in your care."

Wang Yuefang said helplessly.

In fact, he knew that since he let Lian Qiao live with her grandfather, she had lost the initiative, which was equivalent to losing her daughter.

"You're welcome. Lian Qiao is my apprentice. We are a family now."

Li Jiandong always feels that his apprentice’s family is his own family.

Li Jiandong felt particularly uncomfortable during this meal. Although he had found the supplier of raw materials for the cosmetics factory, the meal was still awkward.

The relationship between this family is also speechless.

After dinner, Li Jiandong and Lian Zhong chatted for a long time.

"Mr. Lian, I can see that you care about your father very much. Why don't you want to learn Chinese medicine from your father?" Li Jiandong didn't understand why Lian Zhong was so good at business.

He doesn't seem like someone who can't understand Chinese medicine.

"You also know that my father is a Chinese medicine practitioner. He is not only a doctor, but also a kind man. In order to help others, he does not charge poor people money. How can we survive without money?"

Lian Zhong had his own helplessness. In fact, he went into business just to enable his father to be a better Chinese medicine practitioner who could save lives and heal the wounded.

My father did collect his own herbs over the years, but he also bought a lot of them himself.

In order to support his father's career, he had to go into business. As for his father's medical heritage, he had let his daughter inherit it.

"Lian Qiao has a better talent for medicine than me and learns everything faster, so I let Lian Qiao follow my father. My son follows his mother and has no talent for Chinese medicine."

Lian Zhong expressed his thoughts, and Mr. Lian was listening outside.

This was all specially arranged by Li Jiandong in order to ease the relationship between the father and son of the Lian family.

After hearing this, the old man shed tears. It was true that his son was willing to learn from him when he was young.

Later, because he had no money to buy medicine for his wife, she died. His son seemed to hate him and stopped learning Chinese medicine from him.

It was not until Lian Qiao was born that the son sent his granddaughter back home.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The old man blamed his son for not speaking out.

"Dad, with your temper, can you let me do it?"

Lian Zhong said with tears in his eyes that although he hated his father for not being able to save his mother, he did not object to saving people.
"Okay, our dispute is over. You gave me a good granddaughter. Lian Qiao is more talented than you. I have taught Lian Qiao almost everything I have learned in my life."

The old man said with relief.

In fact, over the years, he has always felt that Forsythia suspensa was God's compensation to him.

I was very disappointed because my son was unwilling to learn Chinese medicine. I thought that all I had learned in my life would not be passed on. I didn't expect my granddaughter to be so talented.

"Dad, don't worry, I will visit Lian Qiao often and take good care of her." Lian Zhong also felt that he owed his daughter.

"Lian Qiao is your biological daughter. I believe you will not treat her badly."

The old man finally believed his son.

Li Jiandong was very happy and took Lian Qiao home the next day.

"Brother Jiandong, who is this girl?" Qin Huairu was very surprised to see Li Jiandong bringing back a girl.

Li Jiandong smiled, "I picked up a daughter."

Qin Huairu smiled, "Don't make fun of me."

"My new apprentice." Li Jiandong told the truth.

"Lian Qiao, this is your master's wife."

"Hello, Master's wife." Lian Qiao was so well-behaved that Qin Huairu's heart was melted by her.

This little girl is even more gentle and well-behaved than my own daughter.

"Old Li, how is it going? Have you found a supplier?" This is the issue that Yan Fugui is most concerned about.

After all, what will happen if there are no suppliers?
"Don't worry, I found it." Li Jiandong smiled and shook his head. Yan Fugui was really calculating. He came to ask as soon as he came back.

"Old Li, that's great, you are so awesome, I admire you." Yan Fugui kept praising Li Jiandong.

Li Jiandong smiled and shook his head.

"Lianqiao, call me Grandpa Yan."

"Hello, Grandpa Yan."

Lian Qiao said obediently.

Only then did Yan Fugui realize that there was a new little girl.

"What are you doing? Why is there an extra little girl?"

"This is my new apprentice."

Li Jiandong tells the truth.

"Your apprentice calls me grandpa?"

Yan Fugui really didn't understand, but this girl could indeed be his granddaughter.

He didn't bother with Li Jiandong.

"Since you are here, Lian Qiao, you have to work. So your first job will be to work with your father."

Li Jiandong expressed his thoughts.

Lian Qiao was very surprised. Firstly, she didn't want to associate with her father, and secondly, she didn't understand business.

"Master, I may not be able to do it."

"It doesn't matter. He is your father. Your cooperation will go smoothly. He will also teach you."

Li Jiandong feels that it is better for his father to teach his daughter than for him to teach her himself.

Lian Qiao wanted to refuse, but Li Jiandong took the initiative and said, "Your grandfather asked me to take you with me, so you have to listen to me."

Finally Lian Qiao stopped talking, but she was very unhappy.

Qin Huairu didn't understand what Li Jiandong meant.

"What do you mean? The child doesn't want to."

"I'm doing this to help them ease the relationship between the father and daughter."

Li Jiandong explained to Qin Huairu, but Qin Huairu knew that the child held a grudge against him and would not forgive him easily.

"Is it really okay for you to do this?" Qin Huairu was still a little confused.

"Don't worry, there's nothing wrong between father and daughter, mother and daughter. Just talk it out."

Li Jiandong felt that there was room for easing the situation. Even the old man had become his son. Could Lian Qiao forgive his father?

Qin Huairu knew that no one could stop Li Jiandong's decision.

I can only persuade Lian Qiao, "Lian Qiao, I don't know what happened between you and your parents, but your parents can't help but love you."

"Your master is actually trying to help you and make your family more harmonious."

Qin Huairu felt that Lian Qiao was a sensible girl. She could understand her master's painstaking efforts when she heard what he said.

Lian Qiao really longs for the love of her father and mother, but she still particularly refuses to communicate with her parents.
"Master's wife, don't worry, I'm fine. I will do my best, even if it's just for Grandpa."

Lian Qiao was willing to go down the mountain with Li Jiandong just to make his grandfather happy, otherwise he would rather stay at home and accompany his grandfather.

Qin Huairu stopped talking. This child was also pitiful. She didn't know what his parents were thinking. They loved all their children.

The next day, Lian Qiao went to the company to inform his father that he needed to sign a contract, and Lian Zhong was very happy.

After all, my daughter contacted me on her own initiative, although it was about cooperation.

"Dad, I want to talk to you about the contract."

Lian Qiao spoke awkwardly, as if she was talking to a stranger.

"Okay, you decide the location, and Dad will be there on time." Lian Zhong was extremely excited.

In fact, normally a secretary can do this kind of thing, but since the other party is his daughter, he has to sign the contract in person.

Lianqiao booked a restaurant, thinking that it was almost noon and she could have lunch with her father.

Lian Zhong was happily preparing to go see his daughter when his wife came hurriedly from outside.

"Oh no, your son got into a fight with someone else, go and deal with it quickly."

"But I made an appointment with Lian Qiao."

Lian Zhong was a little conflicted. After all, his daughter would not forgive him if he broke the promise.

"Oh, saving our son is the most important thing now. Lian Qiao will understand us."

Wang Yuefang felt that Lian Qiao was very sensible and all she needed to do was explain it to him.

Lian Qiao was originally prepared to forgive her parents today. Master was right, parents will always love us, but their way of loving us is different.

But Lian Qiao waited for a long time but her father or mother didn't come, even if they could just send someone.

"Little girl, do you want to order something? We have so many guests here and not enough tables..."

The lady boss said a little embarrassedly
Lian Qiao knew that this was a way to drive her away. She could not stay here without ordering food and eating.

Lian Qiao was very disappointed and wanted to reconcile with them, but they broke their promise. (End of this chapter)
