Everyone thinks I'm a wealthy doctor's son-in-law

It was still Ding Yaozu's study, but this time Ding Yaozu was sitting behind the desk, and Lu Ming was not hiding on the balcony, but sitting in front of the desk with some anxiety.

Looking at each other, Lu Ming was a little embarrassed.

"Just now, I saw that the light in the old man's room was still on. I just couldn't sleep, so I planned to come and chat with the old man."

When Lu Ming subconsciously told this lie, he felt a little regretful. Although Ding Yaozu was nearly eighty years old, he was not so easy to fool.

I don't know if Ding Yaozu found him, but he didn't care about it and said with a smile on his face.

"You treat this place as your own home. If you want to chat with someone, just come to me at any time! By the way, Lu Ming, thank you for today's matter."

Lu Ming asked in surprise, "What's the matter?"

"About Du Tao." Ding Yaozu said with a rather happy smile: "Four years ago, it was Mu Shi's birthday. She was only then! Originally she was very happy driving her first new car, but that day in Dongpo Mountain, She lost to Du Tao! When she was young, she was a person with strong self-esteem and liked to be competitive. She lost in front of me and her parents, and that incident has always been brooding on her mind."

When mentioning this granddaughter, Ding Yaozu's face was filled with happiness and joy, and he talked about it to himself.

"Since then, she has practiced her car skills hard. Her father also knew what she was thinking. Later, he bought her a lot of luxury cars. The Marquis also gave her a good car every year, but she never touched it. Just love that Hummer! She doesn't love cars, but loves her parents, and she doesn't want to part with them."

"In these years, I have ignored her affairs outside, but the guards have reported the truth. I know that she often goes to Dongpo Mountain. Even if she loses, she is never discouraged, because there are still some troubles in this matter, but This time you finally solved a knot in her heart."

Lu Ming smiled and nodded. As a parent, no one wants their children to be happy, but since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both. Ding Yaozu's son and daughter-in-law are far away under Chang Wu in Xizhou.

"Master Ding doesn't mind me causing trouble for the Ding family."

Ding Yaozu waved his hand, and said, "What can cause trouble? The Du family! It is rumored that there are people in the Du family, who are in the mysterious Gaowu Academy, hum! These years have been used as the capital of the Du family to show off their power."

Gaowu Academy?

Lu Ming was a little surprised that someone from the Du family was in the mysterious Gaowu Academy. It seems that this mysterious place is not far from the market, but few people know about it.

But Mr. Ding didn't mention this matter much.

During the chat, Lu Ming asked: "Since the old man knows Ding Mushi's intentions well, why didn't he transfer his parents back to Shangdu, even if he works in the Hou's Mansion, he can take care of both ends!"

Ding Yaozu shook his head with a smile, and said: "Mr. Lu is a sensible person. You should understand the truth that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers! My son is resourceful, but he is not a heroic general. He has wisdom and great talent, but he does not have the decisive majesty like Lord Marquis. It's okay to be behind the scenes, but he can't be in charge of the Houfu."

Lu Ming nodded in agreement.

The Ding family's relationship with Lord Hou is so harmonious, it's all due to Ding Yaozu and his son. They gave up their status as the next Lord of the Hou family and went to Xizhou, with the purpose of supporting Lord Hou.

Since it is impossible to compete with it, it is the best choice to retreat to the second best.

Wisdom alone is not enough for the head of the family, it needs the ruthlessness in his bones.

"There are gains and losses! Lord Hou has nothing to say to my Ding family these years." Ding Yaozu waved his hand with a smile, and said: "At least he has supported him financially! Let's not talk about this, by the way, Lu Ming, What do you think of Mu Shi this day when you get in touch with her?"

Lu Ming replied truthfully: "He has a good temper, stubborn, capricious, and even unreasonable! But he is not bad in nature, and has a kind heart. It is just that he is often inconsistent and good at hiding his weak side."

"Mr. Lu has good eyesight!" Ding Yaozu gave a thumbs up.

In just one day, Lu Ming saw Ding Mushi so thoroughly.

"Then what do you think Mu Shi..."

Seeing Ding Yaozu speak, Lu Ming knew that he would definitely bring up the crop that was betrothed to him again.

Lu Ming hurriedly interrupted him, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, old man, I am confident that she will change completely."

Ding Yaozu is a sensible person. Hearing that he has understood Lu Ming's intentions, he sighed regretfully.

"Hey, I intend to entrust her to you, but it's a pity that Mu Shi doesn't have that blessing."

Lu Ming smiled bitterly and said, "The old man is serious. I have the support of Lord Hou. Miss Ding will be very happy in the future."

Ding Yaozu also laughed when he heard the words, but the smile was a bit bitter, as if there was something unspeakable.

Lu Ming captured this scene accurately. It seems that the relationship between Lord Hou and Ding Yaozu is not as harmonious and respectful as it seems on the surface. From Ding Yaozu's helpless eyes at the moment, it can be seen that Lord Hou is secretly strangling his neck.

That kind of discomfort and difficulty can only be held in my heart and there is nowhere to express it.

After all, they hadn't been in contact for a long time. Although Lu Ming could see it and guess it, he didn't want to ask too many questions.

"Let me tell you the truth." Old Man Ding said with a sudden smile, "I can only live for another two or three years at most, you, the owner of the Ghost Doctor Pavilion, must not be difficult to see that I am terminally ill, right? "

Lu Ming nodded, but changed the topic and said, "It can be adjusted."

Ding Yaozu is nearly eighty years old, he looks strong and full of energy, but his tongue is yellow and his eyes are cloudy, and there is a hint of evil spirit between his brows, which is a sign of the prosperity of yin and the decline of yang. Already have cancer.

The old man was very open-minded, and said with a smile: "I'm almost eighty years old, and the loess is buried up to my chin, and my health is not as good as before. Mr. Lu's rejuvenating medical skills can save my life for three or four years at most. Bar?"

Lu Ming nodded heavily and did not deny it. After all, Ding Yaozu is old, and all organs and mechanisms of his body are aging and failing. Even if the cancer is cured, his body will fail faster, and his life span is limited. Rao is called a ghost doctor. He also cannot make people live forever.

"If I'm alive, many people will be unhappy. It's better to let go of my life as soon as possible! I just don't worry about my granddaughter. I haven't found a good husband so far."

There is something in this remark.

Lu Ming frowned and said, "Why did the old man say that? You are the last Lord of the Marquis Mansion, a highly respected senior. Everyone hopes that you will live a long life!"

Ding Yaozu smiled wryly when he heard the words, as if he was considering the pros and cons.

It took a while before he continued: "Because the prestige is too high, it may curb the development of many people and affect the interests of others. Sometimes it is difficult for me to deal with it!"

Lu Ming was also silent for a while, and then asked bluntly, "Is it because Lord Hou tried to merge the five major families?"

Ding Yaozu's expression changed slightly, and he immediately reprimanded: "It must be the girl Mu Shi who told you! This girl really can't keep her mouth shut, and the trouble comes from her mouth! From now on, please treat Mr. Lu well." Treat her, let her have a long memory, or let me go, maybe something will happen to her!"

Although Ding Yaozu didn't answer directly, his words had acquiesced to Lu Ming's question.

It seems that everything is as he guessed, there is only superficial harmony between Lord Hou and Ding Yaozu, but they actually want to use his prestige to complete the strategy of unifying the five major families, but if Ding Yaozu objects, let him go on the road earlier, Of course it couldn't be better!
