Mr. Fu: Madam has amazed the world again
Chapter 124 Mr. Wei
Xing Yu greeted the Wei family and drove directly over.
Wei Chengtian hung up the phone and immediately ordered people to prepare to welcome the guests, and he went to the door to greet them in person.
Half an hour later, the car stopped outside the Wei family's gate.
Wei Chengtian hurried over and said respectfully, "Mr. Fu, Miss Bai."
Fu Chen nodded.
Bai Ling was a little impatient, and said in a cold voice, "Take me to see the old man first."
"it is good."
Wei Chengtian didn't say much and took them in.
After walking a few steps, Bai Ling suddenly stopped and said to Fu Chen, "Wait for me outside."
Fu Chen glanced at her, with a hint of ambiguous light in his deep eyes. He remained silent for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
"Mr. Fu, I have prepared tea for you. Please go to the front hall and wait for a moment." Wei Chengtian asked someone to take Fu Chen to the front hall, and he took Bai Ling to the old man's room.
The Wei family’s house is not a villa, but a building with an ancient house style. The courtyard is quite large. The old man lives in a small courtyard in a remote area. The environment is very good, elegant and quiet.
Soon, they arrived at the place. Wei Chengtian knocked on the door and said respectfully, "Father, Miss Bai is here."
"Please let her in." After receiving a response from inside, Wei Chengtian took Bai Ling in.
There was an old man lying on the bed, his hair was gray, his face was purple, and he looked very sick.
He raised his hand and pointed to a chair not far away. "Miss Bai, due to my health, I cannot get out of bed to greet you. I hope you can forgive me. Please sit down wherever you want."
Bai Ling nodded and sat opposite the old man.
Old Master Wei waved at Wei Chengtian and asked him to go out.
After Wei Chengtian left, Bai Ling raised his eyes slightly and stared at the old man. After a long while, he opened his thin lips slightly and said, "You are dying."
Mr. Wei smiled and said, "Yes, there is still more than a month."
Bai Ling withdrew his gaze and said nothing.
"Is Brother Mo okay?" Old Master Wei sat up and leaned against the bed, his voice a little weak.
"I don't know." Bai Ling's voice was light and cold, without any warmth.
Old Master Wei sighed softly, "Counting the time, we haven't seen each other for more than 40 years. Brother Mo is a medical genius. In our era, he was the Hua Tuo in the eyes of the world. He saved many people in his life, but after that incident, he became disappointed with this world, so he decided to live in seclusion."
Old Master Wei looked out the window, his voice somewhat sad, "I still remember the words he left when he left. He said that in this life, he would never treat anyone again, and if there is an afterlife, he would never study medicine."
Bai Ling listened and did not disturb him.
"So many years have passed, and I have no news about him. I thought he had..." Old Man Wei turned his head and looked at Bai Ling. "The day before the auction, I had a dream. I dreamed of Brother Mo. I had a hunch that he might appear at the auction. He cultivated the Star Spirit Grass himself. When he retired from the world, he destroyed all the Star Spirit Grass and only left two. I gave one to me and one to himself."
Old Master Wei smiled, "He said that although he had lost hope in this world, it was hard for him to really give up his skills. The Star Spirit Grass was his greatest achievement in this life. Even if he couldn't practice medicine in the future, he would still have a thought in his mind. So, I'm putting the Star Spirit Grass up for auction."
Bai Ling drank a sip of hot water, glanced at him, said nothing, and continued to listen quietly.
"I thought that even if I couldn't meet him, I should be able to meet his descendants. In this world, only his descendants can recognize the Star Spirit Grass at a glance. Miss Bai, I wonder which one of Brother Mo's relatives are you?"
Bai Ling glanced at him and said slowly, "Disciple."
Old Master Wei was stunned for a moment, then he smiled, "I knew that even though he said that, he would not give up. He has never accepted a disciple before. Since he accepted you, he must have passed on all his life's learning to you, right?"
"I guess so." Bai Ling said lightly.
"That's good." Old Master Wei took out a small box from under the pillow behind him. "I came to you because I want you to give this to Brother Mo. I don't have much time left, so I'm afraid I won't have the chance to give it to him in person. Tell him that this was left by Xiaoyun when he left."
Bai Ling raised her eyes slightly, Xiaoyun?
It seems to be the woman the old man often mentioned.
"Xiaoyun has been looking for him for as many years as he has been gone." Old Man Wei sighed, "Xiaoyun said that she would not go home until she finds him in this lifetime. If she doesn't come back, she asked me to bury this thing, and she will regard this relationship as dead."
Seeing that Bai Ling didn't say anything, Old Man Wei added, "You may not know yet, Xiaoyun is my sister. She and Brother Mo have a deep friendship, and it was because of that incident... Oh, forget it, let's not talk about the past. Miss Bai, thank you for your help."
Bai Ling took the item, but did not open it. She said slowly, "I'll deliver it to you."
"Thank you." Old Master Wei waved his hand. "I'm sorry to bother you to come here in person. We have prepared food at home. If you don't mind, you can have the food before you leave."
Bai Ling nodded, stood up and left.
In the courtyard, Wei Chengtian was waiting at the door. He bowed to Bai Ling and said, "Miss Bai, Master Fu is waiting for you in the front hall."
"Yeah." Bai Ling pulled his baseball cap down a bit and followed Wei Chengtian to the front hall.
On the way, she lowered her head, thinking about something.
After a long while, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Wei Chengtian. "The Wei family was once the largest and most powerful family in Beijing. Why did its status decline so quickly?"
Bai Ling doesn't like to pay attention to what's happening in the wealthy circle. He is not very clear about the rankings of these wealthy families and has no interest in finding out.
Because of Fu Chen's relationship, and her plan to take over the entire country's underground world, as well as the sudden emergence of so many hidden families, it seemed that everything was different from the environment she was in before, so she spent more time to get to know all the major wealthy families and hidden families in the capital.
The current structure of the capital is dominated by the four families of Fu, Jiang, Lu and Qin. These four families are also the top wealthy families in the capital, and their strength and assets are far ahead of other families.
Secondly, the Duan family ranks fifth and currently has the most potential to squeeze out the Qin family and become one of the four major families in the capital.
The Wei family was the largest and richest family in the capital more than fifty years ago. At that time, the secluded families had not yet retired. Among many families, the Wei family had been sitting firmly on the number one throne for many years. In other words, in that era, the Wei family represented authority and no one dared to disrespect them.
But now, the Wei family ranks tenth.
The Wei family's assets seem to be getting worse every year.
Just now when Bai Ling was talking with Grandpa Wei inside, he was thinking that with the status of the Wei family in the past, even if they were to retire from the world now, they would definitely be an authoritative existence. However, instead of retiring, the family's status has become increasingly backward, which seems a bit unusual.
Wei Chengtian smiled bitterly, "Because the old man is ill, he has been relying on drugs to survive for more than 40 years. Without the old man to take care of the family, the other families began to target him vigorously, and the Wei family gradually declined."
