The Third Son of the Liu Family
"Honey, where are you?" A soft voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, who are you looking for?" Fang Xiaoru asked cautiously.
"I'm looking for Xia Tian." There was silence for a while, and then the voice continued with that soft voice.
"Hello, sister-in-law? My name is Wang Jie. My brother is out. Is there anything I can help you with?" Wang Jie said quickly.
A chuckle came from the other end: "You are Wang Jie, your elder brother told me about you."
After a pause, another voice came from the other end: "By the way, I'm Qiao Xiaoqiao, do you know how to contact your brother?"
"Qiao Xiaoqiao? Are you really Qiao Xiaoqiao? The number one celebrity Qiao Xiaoqiao in our Jianghai University?" Fang Xiaoru shouted exaggeratedly, seeming very excited.
"Sister-in-law, are you really Qiao Xiaoqiao? Brother often mentions your name, and we didn't believe it before!" Wang Jie was also stunned.
"I think no one in Jianghai City dares to use this name." Qiao Xiaoqiao smiled lightly, then changed her tone, "Sorry, I have something urgent to do and need to find my husband. Can you contact him?"
"Ms. Qiao, Xia Tian is with Doctor Liu. I have Doctor Liu's phone number. I'm going to tell you the number now. If you call, you should be able to find Xia Tian." Fang Xiaoru said quickly.
"Thank you." said Qiao Xiaoqiao.
"You're welcome, you're welcome, Miss Qiao, I really admire you!" Fang Xiaoru was very excited.
"I'm just an ordinary person, haha, maybe I'll come to your flower shop in a few days." Qiao Xiaoqiao smiled, "Please tell me your phone number now."
"Oh, okay, okay!" Fang Xiaoru nodded quickly and then reported a string of numbers.
"Thank you, see you next time." After saying this, Qiao Xiaoqiao hung up the phone. Obviously, she was in a hurry to make another call.
"I actually talked to Qiao Xiaoqiao, I actually talked to Qiao Xiaoqiao..." Fang Xiaoru kept repeating the same sentence.
"Hey, Fang Xiaoru, are you crazy?" Wang Jie couldn't help but say.
"Fatty, you're the one with a broken brain!" Fang Xiaoru came to her senses and glared at Wang Jie fiercely, "Qiao Xiaoqiao is my idol!"
"Then you have to try to curry my favor more in the future!" Wang Jie looked proud.
"Why should I curry favor with you?" Fang Xiaoru said unhappily.
"Qiao Xiaoqiao is my sister-in-law. You are her fan, so of course you have to curry favor with me. I can make it easier for you to meet my sister-in-law. Don't you understand such a simple truth?" Wang Jie said proudly.
"Tsk, I might as well just curry favor with Xia Tian!" Fang Xiaoru rolled her eyes at Wang Jie.
Wang Jie suddenly wilted, this is true!
…
Looking at the old wooden house in front, Xia Tian felt quite novel. It was not that he had never seen this kind of wooden house. In fact, he lived in this kind of wooden house in the mountain. However, after coming down the mountain, this style of house was the first time he saw it.
"Sister Yunman, is this your hometown?" Xia Tian couldn't help but ask. At first he thought he was going to Liu Yunman's suite in Mingdian Community, but Liu Yunman took him to the suburbs far away from the center of Jianghai City.
"Yes, this is our Liu family. This old house has been built more than a hundred years ago." Liu Yunman nodded slightly.
"Ah, more than a hundred years?" Sun Xinxin was a little surprised. "It's been so long, and it still looks strong!"
"Although it's over a hundred years old, the wood used when the house was built was very good, and it's been repaired frequently since then, so it's still very solid. I think it will be fine even if we live here for another hundred years." Liu Yunman smiled, "Let's go in first, grandma is waiting for us!"
As soon as he walked into the door, two familiar figures appeared in Xia Tian's sight. They were the old lady Ning and the middle-aged beauty he had met yesterday. To be honest, although Xia Tian knew that this middle-aged beauty was his future mother-in-law, he still didn't know her name.
"Dr. Xia, your presence here really makes my humble home shine!" Old Madam Ning greeted him warmly, and then turned to Sun Xinxin, "Is this Dr. Xia's girlfriend, Miss Sun? Miss Sun, you are so lucky, much luckier than our Xiaoman."
"Hello, old man." Sun Xinxin didn't know what to say, so she just greeted him politely.
"Grandma, let's not talk about this anymore. Let Xia Tian show it to everyone first!" Liu Yunman said a little anxiously.
"Xiao Man, Dr. Xia just came to our house, so of course he needs to rest first." Old Mrs. Ning frowned, "How can we let him start working right after he arrives?"
"Grandma, I'm fine. Just like Sister Yunman said, I'll treat everyone first." Xia Tian said casually. He was eager to cure everyone in the Liu family as soon as possible, and then Liu Yunman would be his wife.
"Since Doctor Xia said so, then please follow me." Old Mrs. Ning pondered for a moment and nodded. Of course, she also wanted to see a doctor for her family as soon as possible, but she just didn't want to cause Xia Tian's dissatisfaction.
Under the guidance of Old Lady Ning, Xia Tian quickly arrived at the inner hall, where there were already seven or eight people waiting.
"Come on, everyone, come and meet Divine Doctor Xia!" Old Madam Ning waved her hand and pointed at Xia Tian, "This is the successor of the Heaven-Defying Eight Needles, Divine Doctor Xia Tian!"
"Dr. Xia." Everyone greeted Xia Tian together, but Xia Tian could clearly feel several suspicious glances.
“Doctor Xia, our Liu family has always had a small population, but in this generation, Yunman has more than a dozen brothers and sisters. It’s just that they were born in the Liu family and unfortunately contracted that disease. If Doctor Xia can cure them, then in another 20 years, our Liu family will be a truly wealthy family.” Old Mrs. Ning’s eyes were full of anticipation. For decades, she had always wanted to make the Liu family prosperous, and now, this goal was about to be achieved.
Everyone in the Liu family will inevitably inherit that strange disease. The lucky ones can live to their forties, while some can only live to their twenties. Liu Yunman's father died when he was less than thirty years old, and Liu Yunman is now on track to set a new record for the youngest death age in the Liu family.
Before Liu Yunman's grandfather, the Liu family had been a single-line family for more than ten generations, and the family had very few descendants. However, Old Lady Ning gave birth to three sons and a daughter in one go. Unfortunately, only one of the three sons is still alive, and the daughter has been in a coma in bed for more than ten years.
There are actually more than a dozen brothers and sisters in this generation of the Liu family, but it is all thanks to one person, that is Liu Yunman’s third uncle, Liu Qi.
At that time, of the three brothers of the Liu family, the eldest and the second were trying their best to solve the problem of the genetic disease, but the third brother, Liu Qi, was busy looking for women everywhere. In the end, he tricked five women into giving birth to his children. In the end, he had ten children by himself, making him a stud.
"Grandma, I will try my best. But didn't you say Yunman has more than a dozen brothers and sisters? Why do I only see one?" Xia Tian was a little puzzled.
There were actually more than a dozen people in the hall. Except for him and another man, the rest were women. The other man was Liu Yunman's third uncle, Liu Qi.
Xia Tian stared at Liu Qi, feeling a little jealous. She was not jealous of his handsomeness. This guy was not handsome at all. He was skinny and not tall, less than 1.7 meters. As for his facial features, it was not an exaggeration to say that he had a pointed face and monkey cheeks. But there were five beautiful women standing next to him. One of them was a young woman in her thirties, holding the hand of a beautiful little girl in her teens.
Xia Tian was really jealous. How could this guy have more wives than him? He only had two wives, Sister Shenxian and Qiao Xiaoqiao. Even if Sister Xin was included, there were only three. As for Liu Yunman and the policewoman sister, they were not even in his possession yet!
"It's like this, they are all studying, but they will be back in the next two days." Old Lady Ning explained, "Xiao Man told me that you can only treat one person a day, and we have two people here who have inherited a strange disease. If you don't mind, you can help them first."
"Xia Tian, please help Uncle San first. His condition is very serious. I'm afraid..." Liu Yunman didn't continue.
Xia Tian understood what she meant. He knew that Liu Yunman was worried that Liu Qi could not be cured just like her.
"Okay, let me take your pulse first." Xia Tian was actually not very willing. This guy looks like this, how come he has more wives than him?
When Xia Tian was taking Liu Qi's pulse, five pairs of beautiful eyes were staring at Xia Tian. The owners of these five pairs of beautiful eyes were naturally Liu Qi's five wives.
"Brother Miracle Doctor, is my father okay?" A clear child's voice came from the side. Xia Tian turned around and saw a pair of clear eyes full of childlike innocence. It was the beautiful little girl.
"Oh, it's okay, you won't die." Xia Tian withdrew his hand. He already knew Liu Qi's condition. Compared with Liu Yunman, Liu Qi's condition was much better.
"Really?" The little girl was very happy. "Brother Miracle Doctor, please cure my dad's illness!"
"Well, we'll have to wait a while." Xia Tian scratched his head.
"Why are you waiting?" The little girl looked at Xia Tian with her beautiful big eyes. "Brother Divine Doctor, are you lying? Mom said that people who lie are not good children!"
Xia Tian suddenly felt depressed. It was so embarrassing to be called a liar by such a little girl.
Fortunately, Liu Yunman came to the rescue at this time: "Hanhan, don't talk nonsense, brother just helped sister treat the illness yesterday, and he needs to rest for a while."
"Is that really the case?" Liu Qi sneered, "Yun Man, it's not that Third Uncle doesn't believe you, but is this kid really some miracle doctor?"
