  This was a matter of principle!

  Looking at his father’s serious face and gaze, Guo Zhenghe, who had always been intelligent and eloquent, did not know how to answered it. He could only admit mistakes.

  There was always something he feared in the world.

  What Guo Gongzi was most afraid of was his father.

  He did not tell his father some things related to his governance or personal problems. It was not because he did not want, but he did not dare.

  “This time you use your public power for private purposes. Will you buy a murderer directly next time?!” Guo Zhaojun sighed.

  “No, I won’t make such a mistake again,” Guo Zhenghe hurriedly said. He knew his father was really angry.

  “From today, you are not allowed to have any personal contact with that local official. If I know it, you will go back to Beijing directly!”


  “Yes.” Guo Zhenghe immediately said after listening.

  “And as for Wang Yao’s things, you will also stop it. Since she dose not like you, give her up. The world is so big. There are many excellent girls. I still say that sentence: every mean you use must be fair. Forget any evil thought, and remember he ever saved your life!”


  “I know, father,” Guo Zhenghe said.

  “Well, tell me about your next step.”


  Guo Zhenghe thought in a moment, then said some of his own governance ideas to his father. This was the summary of his working experience since he entered the officialdom. He had never said to anyone before.

  Guo Zhaojun listened quietly, interrupting his son in some places, asking a few questions and letting him continue.

  Well, he was very pleased that his son could have his own ruling ideas: knowing what his purpose was before doing things, and then what methods and means were used around the purpose. This was the basic framework. Guo Zhenghe had no problem. Guo Zhaojun did not deliberately tell him some of his own ideas, but he carefully explained to the son about the particularity about the career.

  What could be done, what should be done on its own initiative, what could never be done, and must understand the spirits and intents of leaders.

  These basic things must be known.

  “Zhenghe, don’t think we can do anything we want since that Guo family is engaging in a big business, and being officials from generation to generation. I am in this position. I know how many people who are staring at us, waiting for us to make mistakes, and then replacing us.”


  It was glorious to be a member in a big family, but the pressure under the glory was out of imagination.

  No one wanted to be infinitely glorious today, but at the edge of death next day.

  Guo Zhaojun wanted his son to know these things. At the very least, he could not make mistakes. For example, this time if it was known to those who were speculative, it would be a shortcoming that could be used to attack himself.

  In this way, no matter how dazzling your political achievements were, if you made mistakes, you would ruin everything. The golden mean, since ancient times, has been highly respected by officials.

  He was clear about his son’s character. He wanted to do things, wanted to do big things, and wanted to do better than others. He has not yet reached the stage of being over ambitious. He might not be aware of this point clearly. He was eager to win, as it was the characteristic of young people, but in the officialdom, it was dangerous.

  “Don’t go back at night, stay and drink some wine with me.”


  “Okay.”


  Guo Zhaojun, as a strict father, also hoped that his son, Guo’s next generation, would be able to go further all the way.

  The family had a high starting point, but it also made these children living too smoothly with less frustration. In life, no one could be in a way of being smooth, less windy and frustrated.

  In the mountain village, Wang Yao harvested a part of the medicines in the field in a day, then leveled the land and planted new herb seeds.

  As for continuous cropping, in such a place with “Spirit gathering battle array

  “, it was unnecessary.

  After he had finished all this, he re-organized these medicinal herbs and prepared to make a batch of pills in these two days.

  When it was almost dark, he came down the mountain. It happened that Wang Zecheng came out from home with tools to prepare to go up the mountain.

  “Why do you come back so early today?”


  “The factory over there is not so busy, and I don’t do it at night.” Wang Zecheng said with a smile.

  “Where are you going?”


  “I want to go to the field and see how the herbs I have just planted are growing.”


  “Go, let’s go together.”


  “Oh, okay.”


  Two of them went to the land of Wang Zecheng. These places were all on the Dongshan Mountain. They were all terraced, block-shaped, and arranged along the hillside. Each piece was even small. The land was not purely for crops. There were also other trees, such as peach trees, almond trees, and cherries.

  In Wang Zecheng’s land, the new seedlings of the herb grow well.

  “Look, it is good?” In order to grow these herbs, he did pay much attention.

  “Well, very good.” Wang Yao smiled.

  In fact, the earliest herbs were wild plants. People then discovered their medicinal value and then tried to plant them. This was the same as the starting to plant the crops. As they were growing on the hills, they were not so delicate. What was more, the environment in Dongshan was actually good.

  “Are these saplings all right?” He pointed to a few tree seedlings in the ground.

  “It doesn’t matter, just leave it here.”


  Wang Zecheng stayed and cleaned the weeds in the ground. Wang Yao went down the mountain.

  It was dark and the wind was blowing, expelling the burning accumulated these days a lot.

  The next day, the medical center opened.

  Wen Wan and her som came earliest.

  “We want to go out to have a walk, but I am worry about my mother’s body.”


  “No worries. Go out to take a walk.”


  “Hey, okay, thank you.” Fan Youren was happy after listening.

  “Where?”


  “To the beach.”


  “Beach. Don’t go there these days.”


  “What happened?”


  “It’s going to rain.” Wang Yao smiled.

  “Okay.” Fan Youren patted his head after listening. How could he forget the weather?

  After they left, a few patients came in the morning, all of them were with gastrointestinal discomfort.

  The first one was a young boy with a pale face and a strong diarrhea. He was a villager.

  “Brother.”


  “Diarrhea?”


  “Yes.”


  “How many days?”


  “Three days.”


  “Open mouth, ah.”


  “Have you had barbecue recently?”


  “Well, I have eaten four or five times.”


  “Do you still drink beer?”


  “How can I not drink beer when I have barbecue?” He smiled. The diarrhea started from yesterday. It happened to be his grandfather’s birthday today. He came back to the village and listened to his family. He came to find Wang Yao.

  “It is due to your disharmonious stomach, and the dampness in the body, and you still eat these things. I will give you some medicine.”


  Ume, Codonopsis, Atractylodes, and scorpion.

  These simple medicine were to stop diarrhea.

  “Have some light foods in your daily diet. Don’t eat greasy, spicy, sweet foods, and don’t eat much watermelon.”


  “Oh.” The young man got up and left.

  In fact, it was okay for him to get some western medicine for this disease.

  The second one was a child, five or six years old. His mother brought him. He was also with diarrhea.

  “Did you have much ice cream?”


  “Well, three for each day is not enough,” the woman said.

  “Come on, lie down, I give you a massage.”


  After the child lay down, Wang Yao gently pushed on his abdomen, and he could hear the sound of snoring of his abdomen.

  “Child’s stomach is far more fragile than adults. Those cold drinks and something like that must be controlled. You can’t eat more. It’s best not to eat,” Wang Yao said while giving massage.

  In fact, the so-called cold drinks, cola and the like did not have any effect of cooling down, but might cause stomach upset. People loved it but it was delicious. You felt very comfortable when you ate and drank it.

  “How do you feel?”


  “It’s very comfortable,” the child said, and when Wang Yao massaged, he kept farting, but Wang Yao didn’t care.

  Then Wang Yao gave him a drug to stop diarrhea.

  The third person was still diarrhea.

  This person was still coughing.

  “Have a cold?”


  “Okay.”


  “How many days?”


  “Three days, I started diarrhea yesterday.”


  “What medicine have you taken?”


  The man said the medicine again.

  “The diarrhea was caused by a cold, or precisely it is because of the cold medicine,” Wang Yao said.
