Chapter 188 - 113: This Is Just Ordinary Liquor! Such Sincerity! (Part 2)
"President Wang, I’ll first take you to check-in!" Zheng Yu hurriedly greeted and led them into the Chen Family.
...
Tourist Service Center Reception Room.
Chen Han was already waiting, brewing a pot of Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea, anticipating the arrival of Director Chen.
Just as the tea was ready, Chen Kai arrived. As he entered, his wife took their child, while he stepped forward to greet, "Patriarch!"
"Director Chen, have a seat." Chen Han invited the three to sit down and poured each a cup of Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea.
At the same time, he glanced at the child, whose hands were sluggishly hanging down, clearly showing a lack of strength, and the skin of the arms was not in a very healthy color.
Chen Kai had no mind for tea at the moment, sitting down with a request, "Patriarch, the provincial hospital can’t handle the child’s illness. Today the doctor said there’s signs of muscle atrophy. I hope Patriarch can help treat the child."
Upon hearing this, Chen Han took a sip of Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea, then smiled, saying, "Director Chen, if even the hospital can’t treat it, how could a rural man like me cure it? You must trust the hospital and science!"
"???" Director Chen was clearly stunned — wasn’t it Patriarch who said so before?
Ma Qi, however, felt poignant. There goes Patriarch again. Truly, the last person you’d expect to say trust in science, makes you feel the world is absurd every time.
Chen Han then fetched a small bottle of Bone Wine, laughingly said, "Director Chen, let the child have a drink of our Chen Family’s special Bone Wine!"
As he spoke, he had already poured a cup and handed it over.
Chen Kai was momentarily stunned, but he had no qualms about the wine and promptly fed the child.
Now the child was paralyzed in their limbs, completely unable to exert strength.
"Daddy, it’s strong!" The child clearly hadn’t drunk wine before, soon his face was flushed red.
This kept Chen Kai, his wife, and Ma Qi focused on the child’s condition.
Shortly, they heard the child say, "Daddy, Mommy, my hands and feet are so warm, it’s comfortable."
These words shocked them, knowing it surely related to Patriarch’s cup of wine. How else could the wine have had such a swift effect?
Chen Han then shifted the topic, asking Ma Qi, "Section Chief Ma, how’s the special bus route coming along?"
Ma Qi promptly replied, "Patriarch, the document has been approved, the National Style Event will have a dedicated bus route!"
Upon hearing about the National Style Event, Chen Kai couldn’t resist mentioning the county planning to renovate a section of old city wall.
At first, Chen Han was puzzled about why the county’s renovation of the old city wall as a scenic resource concerned him, but upon hearing that section of wall was where the ancient Chen Family organized local villages to defend against invading troops, he felt like a mythical creator of history had appeared.
Although he was uncertain if it was true, since the county said so, he immediately replied, "Director Chen, we at the Chen Family are planning to organize more historical materials for our exhibition gallery. We’ve seen this incident and are considering including the story for visitors to see."
A simple consensus was thus reached.
During the conversation, Chen Kai was astonished upon seeing his son raise his hand, picking his nose, and habitually placing it into his mouth.
"Son, you can lift your hand?" His wife spoke in disbelief.
After the child developed limb paralysis symptoms, it always required an IV drip and medications to recover overnight.
Now, with just a glass of Patriarch’s Bone Wine, recovery happened so quickly?
"Mommy, put me down, my legs can move!" The child happily kicked his legs, cheerfully saying.
Once he was put down, he was able to walk himself, indeed recovered.
The effect of Patriarch’s Bone Wine is truly amazing!
Chen Kai couldn’t help but say, "Patriarch, the effect of your Bone Wine is too strong, does the child need several more glasses to fully recover?"
Chen Han yet poured another cup of Thunder Bamboo Spirit Tea, "Director Chen, that’s merely ordinary wine, how could it cure illnesses? The child still needs to see the hospital, you must trust in science."
Of course, he didn’t forget to add at the end, "If the child likes the wine, Director Chen can bring him over for a cup!"
"..." Chen Kai once again heard those words, stunned, opening his mouth.
However, to reach his position, he naturally had the emotional intelligence to understand Patriarch did not wish to get involved in treating ailments.
These days, illegal practice of medicine gets reported frequently, sometimes by those cured, or sometimes by those denied treatment.
Given the Bone Wine’s efficacy known externally, surely many would come seeking aid, possibly stirring such troubles.
But he wasn’t that kind of person.
Just thinking about it, these concerns were trivial; knowing Patriarch’s Bone Wine is effective was enough, and Patriarch said, if the child wanted the wine, he could come for a cup.
Which meant, if the child got sick again, to come drink this Bone Wine.
No wonder they say Huaxia Land has many extraordinary people, but few get the chance to meet them, like Patriarch who obviously has skill, yet doesn’t acknowledge it, many extraordinary people must be similar, right?
So, he was among the lucky few to meet such a remarkable person.
Moreover, as a beneficiary, to be able to network with an extraordinary person like Patriarch Chen, there’s no need to probe deeper.
"Many thanks, Patriarch." Chen Kai expressed gratitude again, and his wife similarly, lowered her head in respect.
