Chapter 751: Chapter 751: Betraying One’s Master and Ancestors
Lin Chuxia tilted her head and looked at him, “If you say it like that, I’ll get proud. How about this…”
She turned to the side with a serious look, and Old Sir He also looked over seriously.
Lin Chuxia spoke mysteriously, “Since you think you’re not as good as me in everything, how about you call me Master, and in the future, if I find ways to get rich, I’ll take you along…”
“Pfft…”
Su Wensong couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
Old Sir He’s eyes widened in surprise, and he raised his hand as if to hit her, “You little brat, how dare you talk to your master like that? If I don’t teach you a lesson today, then I’m not your master…”
Lin Chuxia shrank back into the front passenger seat, and although Old Sir He tried to hit her, she was just out of reach, laughing so hard she was trembling like a flower.
This interruption finally eased the tense atmosphere in the car.
………………
Back home, Zhuang Jingshu asked her how things were going in An City.
Lin Chuxia told Zhuang Jingshu about Old Sir He and his children.
To be honest, someone with Zhuang Jingshu’s background could empathize with Old Sir He, as they had experienced similar situations in the past.
However, when it came to the behavior of Old Sir He’s children, Zhuang Jingshu couldn’t agree.
Back then, their family faced even greater difficulties, yet none of them abandoned or betrayed each other; they only worked together to overcome the crisis.
As for Lin Chuxia, who ended up with the Lin Family, it was an act of desperation at the time.
They didn’t expect it would be more than a decade, and those years were also filled with suffering for her.
Even Lin Chuxia’s father, before he died, kept worrying about her, apologizing and telling her to find her way back home if she ever got the chance, no matter what.
How could they be like Old Sir He’s two daughters, who were so heartless as to abandon their father and even lead others in slogans against him?
It was like stabbing their parents in the heart.
When she heard about He Caixia’s consequences, even someone as composed as Zhuang Jingshu couldn’t help but say, “She deserved a lesson.”
As the two of them were talking, Qin Yang came home from work.
Lin Chuxia got up to cook.
The summer heat had only begun to cool by evening.
Once the meal was ready, the family set up a small table in the courtyard to eat.
After dinner, they sat in the courtyard enjoying the cool breeze, and it was during this time that Lin Chuxia brought up her thoughts.
This idea had been brewing in her mind, waiting for the right moment.
Recently, especially since Old Sir He returned, she realized she couldn’t wait any longer.
“You want to build a pharmaceutical factory?” Qin Yang looked a bit serious, “Leaving aside the approval problems, you’re a disciple of the Master, but you’ve never actually studied medicine with him. How can you suddenly want to start a pharmaceutical factory? And as I understand it, building one is not as simple as opening a bun shop or a clothing factory; it’s a long cycle and will involve many challenges.”
Lin Chuxia was well aware that building a pharmaceutical factory required not only sufficient funds but also professional personnel, legal procedures, and qualifications, among other things.
And what she wanted wasn’t just any ordinary pharmaceutical factory.
“I’ve thought it through; I plan to establish a factory specializing in producing traditional Chinese medicine,” she looked at the two of them earnestly, “Shortly after I became his apprentice, my Master gave me some of his treasured formulas. He never intended to continue treating people, and when he gave me those formulas, he even seemed dismissive. But I knew he just didn’t want to owe me.”
Old Sir He had nothing at the time, and her goodwill touched him. But not wanting to take advantage of her kindness, he accepted her as his student and gave her his treasured formulas.
Those were the results of a lifetime of work; how could he possibly look down on them, especially since he preserved them so well during those times?
“No matter the circumstances, my Master always had passion and dedication to his work. I can’t let those formulas go to waste. Besides building a pharmaceutical factory, I also want to create a base suitable for cultivating medicinal herbs. I know it will be tough, but no matter how difficult it is, I want to see it through. I want to do something meaningful.”
Lin Chuxia even thought about how, before the pharmaceutical factory was up and running, most of Xiyang Group’s profits would have to be entirely invested in this project.
And this level of investment could very well continue for the next few years.
However, Lin Chuxia had no regrets.
Once the pharmaceutical factory was established, and her formulas were put into production, it all made sense.
In fact, you could say this was the most meaningful thing she had done in this new life.
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhuang Jingshu smiled and said, “I support you, Xiaxia. Mom supports you. This endeavor is very meaningful. Whether it’s financially or in terms of manpower and resources, Mom will support you any way she can. Our country’s traditional Chinese medicine, a cultural gem passed down from our ancestors for thousands of years, and your Master’s life’s work, shouldn’t be buried.”
No one appreciated Old Sir He’s medical skills more than Zhuang Jingshu.
Her life was saved by Old Sir He.
Back then, when she was abroad receiving medical treatment, she was almost sentenced to death; that drove her to return home to fulfill her final wishes at any cost.
If it weren’t for Old Sir He, she wouldn’t have survived, nor reconnected with her daughter.
She had faith in Old Sir He and even more in the traditional Chinese medicine of her country.
Qin Yang was only concerned that this would be difficult to accomplish, but seeing Lin Chuxia’s determination, he quickly voiced his support, “Alright, whatever you do, I’ll support you.”
His wife had always been his pride.
Lin Chuxia responded with a gentle smile.
It’s great to have such supportive family, both her mother and her husband.
……………
Lin Chuxia was never one to procrastinate. Once she made up her mind, her first step was to negotiate with Old Sir He.
She sought to learn from Old Sir He the best regions in the country for cultivating medicinal herbs, which herbs were most suitable for artificial cultivation, the ones with the most extensive uses, and the herb types most scarce in the country…
When Old Sir He first heard she wanted to build a pharmaceutical factory and interplant a medicinal herb base, he thought this young disciple of his was joking again.
Her ventures—clothing factories, shopping malls, food factories—were cash cows, the most lucrative industries of the day.
Without doing anything else, she could easily enjoy a luxurious life with the profits from these ventures, enough money to last for generations, with no need to trouble herself with laborious herbal medicine endeavors.
Compared to those, cultivating herbs even seemed like a thankless task.
But seeing her earnest dedication, Old Sir He’s heart was stirred with mixed emotions. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on nοvelfire.net
Knowing she was doing it for him, he felt touched and more committed to imparting all his knowledge.
In fact, despite having taken Lin Chuxia as a disciple for years, he hadn’t taught her as much as he had taught Qin Jianjun.
Now, finally, he had the chance to fulfill his duty as a master.
