Chapter 647: Grandpa, my uncle is here.

Chapter 647: Grandpa, my uncle is here.

On the morning of the second day, Bai Zhi and Lu Ye got up early and appeared at the clinic, starting their busy day.

The auspicious time for unveiling the plaque is 11:30, and it's still early.

Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun both helped out at the clinic.

I bought drinks and melon seeds, boiled water, and placed cups, tea leaves, and white sugar on the table.

Bai Zhi was waiting for the phone call.

There's still no word from Dr. Zhou and her uncle, and we don't know if they're coming or not.

It's already 9 a.m. If they were coming, they should have gotten off the bus by now; if they weren't coming, they should have called to let us know.

There's still no news from them, which is really worrying.

Bai Zhi took out her mobile phone again, intending to call Ye Tiandong.

Before I could even dial, the phone rang.

It was Ye Tiandong calling.

Bai Zhi hurriedly called out into the phone, "Uncle, are you still in Nancheng?"

"Xiaozhi, we just got off the train. I kept my phone off on the train because I was afraid it would run out of battery. Can you give me the address and we'll take a bus there ourselves?"

"Who are you with? We'll come pick you up."

Ye Tiandong firmly refused, "No need, just tell me the address quickly, we need to get in the car."

"Oh, okay." Upon hearing his words, Bai Zhi quickly gave him the clinic's address.

"I'm hanging up now, we'll talk when I get there." Ye Tiandong hung up the phone without waiting for a reply.

Ye Rufeng heard Bai Zhi talking on the phone and his expression changed slightly. He looked over at her, but when he saw that Bai Zhi had already hung up the phone and was walking towards him, he quickly looked away.

"Grandpa, my uncle is here." Bai Zhi said to Ye Rufeng with a joyful tone.

Ye Rufeng remained calm and composed, his tone indifferent. "Oh."

Then that was the end of it; he went back to what he was doing.

Lu Zheng'an was quite surprised to hear this news. He smiled and said, "Boss Ye is here? I didn't hear that he was coming. Otherwise, we would have been on the same train."

“My uncle has been quite busy lately, and he didn’t tell me he was coming,” Bai Zhi explained.

Lu Ye said to Bai Zhi, "I'm free right now, I'll go to the train station to pick him up."

"No need, I just gave him the address, and he said he'll come by himself."

Bai Zhi was carefree, but Lu Ye took it very seriously and didn't dare to be negligent. He said, "Are there any taxis or tricycles around here? I'm afraid she won't be used to them. I'll drive over and pick her up."

Bai Zhi remembered her uncle's hurried words on the phone earlier, saying he was about to board a car. She said, "I'm afraid if you go now, he'll already be on the bus. Let's wait a bit, and we'll call you later. It looks like someone's coming over there."

Just then, we saw that Old Master Sun and Old Madam Sun had gotten out of their car and were walking towards us.

"Grandpa Sun, Grandma Sun, you've come too?"

Last week, when I was giving Sun Cheng acupuncture, we happened to talk about their traditional Chinese medicine clinic.

When Sun Cheng asked her when she would open, she mentioned it briefly. Unexpectedly, Sun's parents also came to support them.

Old Sun smiled and said, "How could we not come to such a joyous occasion? Sun Cheng originally planned to come too, but something came up at work and he couldn't get away."

"Grandpa Sun, Grandma Sun, please come inside and have a seat."

"Dad, Mom, these are my grandfather's old comrades-in-arms, Grandpa Sun, and Grandma Sun."

Upon hearing Lu Ye's introduction, Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun quickly came over to greet him and called him Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun.

Old Sun immediately recognized Lu Zheng'an.

"You're Zheng'an, right? I almost didn't recognize you."

Lu Zheng'an naturally remembered this uncle as well. He stepped forward and shook hands with Old Sun, saying, "Uncle Sun, it's been almost 20 years since we last met."

"Yes, the last time I saw you, you were a young man."

Old Sun sighed, "Time really flies."

Old Sun glanced around, then asked Lu Zheng'an, "Didn't your father come?"

Originally, Old Sun came here today with a glimmer of hope that he could see his old comrade-in-arms whom he had not seen for nearly 20 years.

Lu Zheng'an explained, "My father was afraid he wouldn't be able to handle the car ride, so he didn't come."

"That's true. We're all getting on in years, and our bodies really can't handle long train journeys."

When people get old, it becomes really difficult to see them.

"Grandpa Sun, Aunt Sun, please come inside and have a seat."

Ye Qingbai and Shen Qian arrived at this moment.

Upon reaching Bai Zhi, Shen Qian explained, "Xiao Zhi, I'm so sorry. I originally planned to come earlier, but I did some ward rounds this morning and assigned some work to other colleagues, so I was late."

"I understand, it's already very kind of you to be able to come on a weekday."

Ye Qingbai hurriedly asked, "Xiaozhi, where is Second Grandfather? I haven't seen him yet."

Ye Qingbai had been thinking about Ye Rufeng ever since he arrived. He knew his second grandfather had been here for several days, but he was too busy with work after recovering from his injuries to leave the military base, so he could only wait to come and see him today.

“It’s inside,” Bai Zhi said.

Ye Qingbo couldn't wait to see his second grandfather, and of course he wanted to go in with Shen Qian to see the old man.

He spoke gently to Shen Qian, “Xiao Qian, let me take you to see my second grandfather.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Qian looked somewhat uncomfortable and chose to avoid the question, saying, "You go in first, I'll say hello to Uncle Lu and the others."

"Let's go inside and sit down, everyone."

Bai Zhi and Lu Ye stood at the door, looking around.

Lu Ye was about to say that he should still go to the train station to look for them, in case Ye Tiandong and the others got lost.

Just then, a pedicab, a special type of rickshaw, came up in their direction.

Then I saw three familiar figures squeezed onto the tricycle.

"uncle."

"dad."

Bai Zhi and Zhou Lin shouted out almost simultaneously.

Then he quickly went to meet him.

Bai Zhi saw Cui Hua sitting next to Ye Tiandong, and a smile appeared on her lips, her eyes filled with satisfaction.

She greeted them happily, "Uncle, Sister Cui, Dr. Zhou, what brings you all here together?"

Dr. Zhou said with a smile, "The day before yesterday, Mr. Ye came to my house to visit my mother. I happened to mention that I wanted to come here to attend your opening ceremony, so Mr. Ye bought tickets for me as well."

"Why didn't you say so earlier? We've been waiting and couldn't get through on the phone. We thought you weren't coming at all."

After Bai Zhi finished speaking, she took Cui Hua's hand and said, "Sister Cui, you've come too. You've worked hard."

Cui Hua was wearing black straight-leg pants, a short brown wool coat, and her hair was tied up; she looked beautiful and capable.

She felt a sense of familiarity upon seeing Bai Zhi, saying, "It's not tiring. I'm busy in the hotel all day, so it's a good opportunity to come out, relax, and enjoy the scenery."

Throughout the journey, Ye Tiandong kept complaining that the conditions here were too harsh, and that his niece had come all the way from a big city to open a clinic, which was too hard for her.

"Let's go, let's go inside quickly."

Lu Zheng'an and Xie Yun were there entertaining everyone. When they saw Ye Tiandong and the others arrive, they came up to greet them.

Ye Tiandong frequented shopping malls and could chat with anyone, but he never went inside to sit down.

Ye Rufeng was chatting with Old Sun and the others when he said this.

Although this is the first time we've met, the old man is about the same age as me.

There are many more topics to discuss than when you're with young people.

But ever since Ye Rufeng heard a certain sound, he would occasionally glance toward the door.
