“Yes,” Lin Sitao said .

“How dare they do these things in Dao!” Sun Zhengrong was beyond angry . “Don’t know who they’re messing with? Are they seeking death?”
Somewhere in Jiang Nan, thousands of miles away…
“Third Uncle, what should I do?” Zheng Weijun asked .
“Those are the old master’s wishes . It’s hard to disobey!” Zheng Shixiong took a sip of tea .
He only had one daughter . He had settled most of the things for his nephew, who he viewed as a son, and was anxious for him . Unfortunately, there were some things he couldn’t help with even if he wanted to .
“He still loves my eldest brother more,” Zheng Weijun said .
“After all, your eldest brother was brought up by him, so, naturally, they are closer,” Zheng Shixiong said . “To be fair, your eldest brother still treats you quite well . ”
“Yes, he treats me well . ” The smile on Zheng Weijun’s face was bitter . “Sometimes I wish that I hadn’t been born in such a family . I came into contact with the darkness of the hearts of the people too early in life, fighting for power and profits, cheating, scheming, and planning . It makes a person physically and mentally tired . ”
In these fights, brothers and relatives could even turn on each other .
After a long pause, Zheng Weijun said, “I’ve thought it through . I won’t get involved in the business of the seven southern provinces anymore!”
“Have you thought it through?” Zheng Shixiong asked .
“Yes, I only want the businesses in Qi Province, especially Nanshan Pharmaceutical Company,” Zheng Weijun said . “I want all their shares to belong to me . ”
“That’s much easier since it’s less than 1 percent,” Zheng Shixiong said . “I think the old master will agree to it . Your eldest brother will agree to it too . They might even give you control of the province’s business . After all, you guys are biological brothers . ”
“That’s settled then,” Zheng Weijun said . “I’ll have to trouble you . ”
“We don’t have to be so polite with each other,” Zheng Shixiong replied .
In such a large family, everyone had their sorrows .
“I’m going away to relax for a few days,” Zheng Weijun said .

“Sounds good,” Zheng Shixiong said .
In a villa in another section of the city…
“Second Uncle, don’t you think that it’s too unfair to Weijun?” Zheng Weihong asked .
“Weihong, there is no fair thing in the world,” a man in his 50s replied . “Besides, this is the old master’s decision . Do you think your uncles don’t have any thoughts regarding this? You are about to take over almost one-third of the Zheng family’s industry . Numerous people are coveting it . What a big fat piece of meat this is . Even your father didn’t get this piece of meat back then . Why should you take it over? Just because you are the grandson brought up by the old master?”
“You think it’s unfair too, right?” Zheng Weihong asked .
“It’s quite unfair,” the middle-aged man . “If even I think so, what do you think others will feel?”
After he spoke, he gave a heavy sigh before continuing . “Don’t think or worry too much about it . It doesn’t matter what they think . The key is what the old master thinks . They want to intervene, but they have to have the ability to do it . You are holding the company’s shares in your hands now . Once you try to win over some uncles, you’ll naturally be able to appease this storm . In fact, the skills will speak for themselves in the end . ”
“Yes, your right,” Zheng Weihong said .
“I’m already half a century old, and your two cousins are not very successful,” the middle-aged man said . “So, of course, I have to support you all the way . ”
“They’re actually quite good,” Zheng Weihong replied .
“Good? What’s good?” the middle-aged man asked . “One wants to be an artist, and another wants to be a movie star . I want to give them two hard slaps just looking at their empty appearances!”
When the man mentioned his two unyielding sons, he was angry . They had left their perfectly fine family business and didn’t want to inherit it . Instead, they wanted to dabble in useless empty things . They were even obsessed with it all . They wouldn’t listen no matter how he persuaded them . This had caused his hair to turn white from worry .
“At least they can do what they want to do,” Zheng Weihong said .
“They’re just immature,” the middle-aged man said . “I’d be relieved if they had half of the skills you and Weijun have . ”
In the mountain village, the autumn wind blew . The weather was cool .
Wang Yao sat quietly under the acacia tree, savoring his tea . Su Zhixing had specially brought him the Wuyi rock tea from Jing . It was indeed good stuff .

Maybe I can plant a few of them in those stone crevices in Nanshan Hill myself, Wang Yao mused .
Knock! Knock!
Someone knocked on the door . Wang Yao called out, “Come in, please . ”
“I see Xiao Yao is here,” Wang Fengming said .
When he saw the visitors, Wang Yao got up in a hurry . “Uncle . ”
“Are you busy?” Wang Fengming asked .
“No, there are only a few people . Sit down and have some tea . ” Wang Yao poured him a cup of tea .
“Oh, thank you,” Wang Fengming said .
“Is there something troubling you?” Wang Yao asked .
“Indeed,” Wang Fengming replied . “I planted a few fields of herbs on the mountain, but I don’t have much confidence in it . ”
“I’ve gone to see it, and it’s growing quite well,” Wang Yao said . “I want it to be the closest to the wild plants . Don’t fertilize it . ”
He had gone to the top of Dongshan Mountain to check the herbs the two of them had planted on two plots of land . Their daily efforts could be seen . Of course, their growth couldn’t be compared to the herbs growing on top of Nanshan Hill .
“Oh, that’s good, that’s good,” Wang Fengming said .
“You can rest assured, Uncle, I will want those herbs,” Wang Yao said . “Also, I suggest you plant more . Isn’t there a new big pharmaceutical company in town? They mainly produce traditional Chinese medicine . The raw material requirements are natural and pollution-free organic Chinese herbs . Those herbs of yours will sell well in the future . ”
“Really?” Wang Fengming was a bit surprised .
“Would I lie to you about this?” Wang Yao asked with a smile . “To tell you the truth, the owner of that pharmaceutical company is a friend of mine . I also have shares in it . ”
“Ah, alright then, that’s good,” Wang Fengming said . “I’ll go back and plant more . ”

“Sounds good,” Wang Yao said .
“I’ll go now,” Wang Fengming said .
“There’s no rush, Uncle . Finish your tea before you leave . ” Wang Yao pointed to the teacup .
Wang Fengming drank all the tea in the teacup . “Oh, this tea is so fragrant!”
Even if someone didn’t know how to appreciate tea, they could still taste the difference between good tea and bad tea .
“Come often when you are free . I have plenty of good tea here,” Wang Yao said with a laugh .
“Sure . ” Wang Fengming left with a smile on his face .
In the late afternoon, close to evening, Wang Yao closed the door of the clinic and went home for dinner . On the way back, an old man was squatting by the river smoking . He looked very leisurely .
Wang Yao greeted him, “Uncle . ”
“Hey, Xiao Yao, going back?” the old man asked .
“Yes, have you eaten yet?” Wang Yao asked .
“No, I’m waiting for Zecheng to come back,” the old man replied .
“OK, I’ll be off now,” Wang Yao said .
The old man smiled as he waved his hand .
“Ah!” Wang Yao sighed softly . That old man . What a pity!
Even if the man was in a good mood and everything went smoothly, he could not resist the terrible disease in his body . Wang Zecheng got medicine from Wang Yao all the time for his father, but it was only delaying the inevitable and reducing his pain . He was still heading for death at a much faster rate than a healthy person .
When he came to the street on the way to his house, he saw Wang Zecheng, who had just returned from work at the factory . Wang Yao had not seen him for a while and thought he looked thinner .
Wang Zecheng, who was riding a motorcycle, greeted him, “Wang Yao . ”
“Done working?” Wang Yao asked .
“Yes, work has ended,” Wang Zecheng replied .
“You should get home quickly,” Wang Yao said . “Your father is waiting for you to get home for dinner . ”
“Alright, I’ll go back now,” Wang Zecheng said .
The sun was setting, creating a red glow on the horizon . Wang Yao’s mother was preparing dinner . Wang Fenghua was smoking in the yard . Wang Yao entered the kitchen to help set the table . The food was soon ready .
“It’s autumn, and the weather has grown cold,” Zhang Xiuying said . “All the people who could have moved away from the village . ”
Wang Yao did see fewer people while walking around the village lately .
“They’re probably not coming back,” he said .
“What would they come back to?” Zhang Xiuying asked . “The houses have been replaced, and the land on the hill hasn’t been farmed . It’s grown barren . ”
This was the way land was . Weeds would grow when it was farmed often . If no one took care of it diligently, it would be completely barren in less than a year .
Wang Yao did not speak . He just listened quietly . He didn’t care that there only a few villagers left in the village .
“I met Wang Yilong in the village today,” Zhang Xiuying said . “He is in good spirits . ”
“He’s not bad,” Wang Yao said .
“How long can he live?” Zhang Xiuying asked .
“It’s hard to say, it depends on himself and his family, but Wang Zecheng’s change during this period is huge,” Wang Yao said . “He is filial to the old man and cares about his family . The old man’s mood is good . Such a state of life is conducive to the continuation of his life . ”
