Cao Yunlong had been waiting for my words for a long time, and a hint of joy suddenly appeared on his face.
"Little brother, please come this way!"
Cao Yunlong made an inviting gesture towards me.
"You come with me!" I greeted Hu Xue.
Hu Xue was stunned for a moment, but then she said oh and followed me obediently.
Cao Yunlong looked at me with even more confusion. As an important figure in the Hu family, he naturally knew that Hu Xue did not have a brother like me. I guess he is also confused now.
"Little brother, what's your surname?" Cao Yunlong asked carefully.
"The last name is Zhang!" I said calmly.
The reason why I am not so polite is because I have my own plans. Faced with this situation, the more humble you are, the harder it is for others to believe you, not to mention that I still look very young.
Cao Yunlong nodded, with an expression on his face that showed no emotion or anger. He probably had some doubts about my abilities.
"Brother Zhang, can you tell me the answer now? How did you know that my mother was sick?"
I glanced at Cao Yunlong lightly, "Are you doubting me?"
"Little brother, don't be offended. As you said, my mother was murdered. I don't believe anyone now!" Cao Yunlong did not deny it.
I nodded lightly and then told him the reason.
"It's very simple. The reason why I saw that your mother was sick was because I learned from your appearance that there are twelve palace gates on the human face, which respectively represent wealth, marriage, career, parents and brothers, illness and disaster...etc., I
Observing that the palace of your parents is dark, it means that your parents are ill, and the left palace of your parents' palace is dark. It seems that your father is no longer alive, which can only mean that something is wrong with your mother, no.
Do you know if what I see is right or wrong?”
Cao Yunlong's face suddenly showed an expression of astonishment, and he nodded like a chicken eating rice.
"Yes, yes, you are absolutely right. I didn't expect that little brother Zhang turned out to be an expert. I'm disrespectful!"
"Mr. Cao, you're welcome. I don't treat people for free!" I said calmly.
"I understand, as long as you can take good care of my mother's illness, any amount of money will do!" Cao Yunlong said quickly.
"I don't care about money, but I have other things!"
"I don't know what's going on?" Cao Yunlong asked doubtfully.
"Well, let's wait until we see the doctor!" I didn't answer his question immediately.
Because, nothing can be said too harshly. I haven't seen the old lady's situation yet, and now I can't guarantee that I will leave with 100% certainty.
Besides, everything depends on the heat. Now is not the time for me to have a showdown with him. The key is to really prick Cao Yunlong's nerves, shatter his defenses, and make him understand the stakes.
"Zhang Jiuyang, can you really read faces?" Hu Xue also looked at me in surprise.
"Yes, I told you, you just don't believe me!" I relaxed my shoulders.
"I know whether what you said is true or false?" Hu Xue retorted.
I smiled and didn't answer,
Soon, we came to a separate small building in the depths, where Cao Yunlong lived.
Cao Yunlong took us up to the second floor on foot, and then he carefully opened the door.
The house is not big and the decoration is simple, but it feels very comfortable.
"Second Miss, Mr. Zhang, please wait a moment!"
After Cao Yunlong greeted us, he quietly walked to a room inside and knocked on the door gently.
Knocked several times in succession.
"Who is it?"
A frail old lady's voice came out from the room.
"Mom, it's me. I'm looking for someone to treat you!" Cao Yunlong said softly.
At this moment, the expression on Cao Yunlong's face looked very gentle, for fear of disturbing the old lady.
Although this is a very simple act, it explains what it means to be a filial son.
"I'm seeing a doctor again, hey!" the old lady sighed.
"Xiaolong, you have called so many people, forget it, my illness will never be cured!" The old lady looked very discouraged.
Judging from the accent, many people must have seen the old lady's illness, but there is probably nothing they can do about it.
It seems that Zhao Yuzhou used the technique on the old lady for more than a day or two.
"Mom, it's the second lady who brought me here. She said she can help you see a doctor!" Cao Yunlong showed no trace of impatience and continued to explain in a low voice.
"Ah, that girl Xiaoxue is here! Why didn't you tell me earlier? Oh, you kid is really..." The old lady's voice suddenly gained some strength.
While talking, I heard a slight noise coming from inside. It must be that the old lady wanted to get up.
"Hurry, open the door quickly, why are you standing there stunned?" the old lady urged.
I glanced at Hu Xue, and it sounded like the old lady's tone was that she was quite jealous of her, the second young lady of the Hu family.
Hu Xue didn't just stand there stupidly and ran over quickly.
At this time, the door of the room had been opened by Cao Yunlong from the outside. Hu Xue rushed into the room without saying a word. I also walked in and stood at the door.
On the bed, there was an old lady with gray hair, who looked very weak. She had already opened the heavy quilt on her body, and slowly supported her body to get out of the bed.
Hu Xue rushed forward and helped the old lady
"Grandma Hu, what's wrong with you? Why are you so sick?" Hu Xue looked surprised, obviously thinking that the old lady was so sick.
"Xiaoxue, when did you come? Why didn't you tell the old lady? We haven't seen each other for several years, and the girl has grown so big!" The old lady held Hu Xue's hand with a look of love on her face.
"Grandma Hu, why are your hands so cold? Oh, lie back quickly!"
As Hu Xue said this, she quickly opened the quilt and asked the old lady to lie down for a while.
"It's okay. Grandma is not cold. Grandma is very happy to see you!" The old lady was very stubborn. Perhaps she thought it was impolite and refused to go back to bed.
"Xiaoxue, is your grandpa okay?" The old lady patted Hu Xue's hand and asked.
"Grandpa, he is very good. He even mentioned you some time ago!" Hu Xue said quickly.
This girl is not too stupid and knows what to say and what not to say.
"Oh, that's good, that's good! Your grandpa is getting older, so let him pay more attention to his health!"
The old man's words were the simplest greetings, but they were so unpretentious.
From the brief conversation, I could tell that the relationship between the two families was quite extraordinary. From the lines in the old lady's words, I could tell that he should have been following Mr. Hu for a long time.
The Hu family started from the old man's generation. In this case, it is not an exaggeration to say that they worked hard together. No wonder Cao Yunlong can hold the shares of the Hu family. This affection alone is enough for this weight.
"Mom, the second young lady is not an outsider either. Just sit back in bed!" Cao Yunlong quickly advised, worried about his mother's health.
"Yes, grandma, please go back to bed quickly. It's so cold, so I'll just sit here and talk to you!" Hu Xue said quickly.
"Hey, okay, okay, I listen to you, you are all good children!"
As she spoke, the old lady's eyes finally fell on me.
