Rebirth 1977 Great Era

Chapter 1110 I'll Challenge Him to a One-on-One Battle! (Bonus Chapter for Monthly Tickets)

"You're not getting along well with the crew?" Fang Yan said to his master, Lu Donghua, after making sure everyone was out of sight in the rearview mirror.

The old man looked back to make sure they were far away before he said:
"No, it's not that. It's just that we're not very familiar with them, and I don't really want to get involved with them."

"I didn't actually spend much time on the film set. At most, I would complete the filming tasks, and when I wasn't busy, I would go out and enjoy the scenery."

"Moreover, from my observation, these young people are much better at building connections than the average person. Once you get involved with them, it's hard to get out of trouble."

“I’m fine with this old man, and they’re too lazy to pull strings, but you’re different. You know a lot of people and have a bright future. I don’t want you to be used by them because of my connections. That would cause trouble later!”

Fang Yan recalled some of Liu Xiaoqing's scandalous news and her consistently bold style, so he asked:
"Is there something you don't like about this?"

The old man paused, not answering immediately, and after considering his words for a moment, he said:
"No, but a Taoist friend of theirs looked at their faces. Some people are born with a life of chaos and trouble, and are bound to be involved in lawsuits and disputes."

"If we can't afford to mess with this kind of person, can't we at least avoid them?"

"Haha... I see." Fang Yan couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. This fortune teller was really accurate.

Lu Donghua didn't really want to talk about this woman, so he changed the subject and said:
"By the way, how have my four months been? Have they gone relatively smoothly?"

As he turned the steering wheel to avoid a large pothole, he said in a dialect:
"Thank you for your concern, I'm doing well!"

The old man raised an eyebrow:
"What do you mean by 'not bad'?"

He said in dialect:

"Although we encountered a lot of problems, we have basically dealt with them all."

Lu Donghua said:
"That sounds like quite a bit of trouble?"

He said in dialect:

"That's not the case!"

"Tell me about it?" Lu Donghua asked.

Fang Yan nodded:

"Okay, let me think about where to begin..."

"By the way, not long after you left, right after the New Year, my grandfather's treasured secret recipes were discovered. However, most of them were in the hands of his eldest apprentice, Qi Yong, the department head at Yanjing Hospital. When I went to see him, he turned me away..."

"Is that so?" Lu Donghua became interested.

On the way back, Fang Yan briefly told his master about everything that had happened during this period. There were too many things that had happened. On the way back, they even encountered the evening rush hour and it took them an hour to get there.

Even so, the dialect still hadn't finished telling the story.

After parking the car at Xiehe Hospital, Master Lu Donghua asked:

"So, how does your family plan to get along with He You now?"

He said in dialect:

"His identity is special. As long as he doesn't go too far, we should treat him like an ordinary relative. When he comes to our house, we should serve him tea and have a meal. We should be polite. However, when it comes to matters related to traditional Chinese medicine secret recipes, we must be extremely vigilant."

The old man nodded, then asked Fang Yan:

"Hmm, does he practice martial arts?"

Fang Yan recalled He You's actions and said:
"Probably not? I didn't ask."

After saying that, he asked:

"how?"

Lu Donghua said:
"If he knew martial arts, I could even challenge him to a duel."

"..." Fang Yan was speechless. With the old man's skills, he could break someone's bones with one punch.

“No need,” Fang Yan said.

After getting off the bus, Lao Hu said to Fang Yan:

"Should we cook for ourselves or have a restaurant deliver?"

He said in dialect:

"We'll have the restaurant deliver some, and then we'll cook the rest ourselves. We'll also have to call other people over. It'll take them at least half an hour, and at most an hour. I have enough time to cook."

Old Hu glanced at his watch and said:
“Okay, it’s 6:30 now, I’ll have the restaurant deliver it around 7:30.”

The old man said to them:

"Oh, thank you both so much."

Fang Yan smiled and said to the old man:
"No trouble at all, no trouble at all. This is just a welcome dinner for you. We've invited everyone over too, it's been a long time since we've all gotten together." After the senior brothers recovered, they all started their own work, and it wasn't easy for Fang Yan to find an opportunity to get together. Now that the old man is back, it's just the right time.

Speaking of which, it's been two months since I last saw that girl, Wangyou.

The last time I saw him was when his father, Lu Sihai, brought him over for a weekend visit.

He's probably been taken to his dad's place recently. It's an hour's drive from there to his house, so he doesn't usually come over.

Old Hu went straight to the hospital to make a phone call to order food, while Fang Yan led his master home first.

As soon as they arrived at the entrance, Fang Yan noticed another car parked next to Sophia's.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Old Master Xie's car from the military region. (His brother-in-law's wife's maternal grandfather, first appearing in chapter 350)
This person hasn't been here for a long time either.

Did they just bump into each other today?

Pushing open the door and walking in, Fang Yan heard the sounds of children chasing and playing in the main courtyard. He immediately recognized the voices as those of his brother-in-law's two maids.

Fang Yan led his master to the moon gate of the main courtyard, and sure enough, they saw three dogs playing with the children who hadn't been there for a long time, while Zheng Yi and Ming Zhu were also making a ruckus.

The cat in the house stays far away, afraid that the children will come and harm it.

"Zhu Qian, Ye Hong!" Fang Yan called out to them.

"Second Uncle!" the two girls called out to Fang Yan in unison.

"Hey, your parents are here too?" Fang Yan asked with a smile.

"Yes!" they nodded.

At this moment, Zhao Zhengyi also came over and respectfully greeted Fang Yan and Lu Donghua:

"Master, Grandmaster!"

Lu Donghua looked at his young grand-disciple and said with a happy smile:

"well!"

Just then, Anton and Sophia came out of the main hall. They quickly greeted Lu Donghua when they saw him.

"Master!"

"Master!"

"Good, good, good kids!" Lu Donghua laughed in response, feeling that his sect was growing stronger in this place.

Zhu Lin also came out at this moment and greeted them:
"Master is back! Come in and have some tea!"

He glanced at Zhu Lin's stomach and nodded:
"Wow, you're already showing so much after just four months!"

"Thank you for your concern, please come inside," Zhu Lin said.

Upon entering the house, Fang Yan found his brother-in-law, his wife Ye Yun, and Grandpa Xie all there, as well as Grandpa Xie's granddaughter Xie Yongzhen.

After Fang Yan entered, she greeted them and introduced her returning master, Lu Donghua. Then Fang Yan went to make a phone call.

I had just walked into the study when I found that my wife had followed me there.

"What's wrong?" Fang Yan asked his wife.

"Do you know why Grandpa Xie came here?" Zhu Lin asked Fang Yan with a mysterious look.

Fang Yan shook his head:
"I just said hello, how was I supposed to know what he was doing here?"

He paused and asked:
"Could it be that my old prostate problem has flared up again?"

Zhu Lin waved his hand:
"No, they're here to deliver your invitation."

"An invitation? Is it for a birthday celebration?" Fang Yan asked.

Zhu Lin shook his head:

"No, on August 1st, you will be invited to attend an internal meeting at the military region."

Fang Yan was taken aback:
"Huh? Me? Why?"

Zhu Lin said:

"What else could it be? It's that handbook you brought back from Guangzhou!"
