Li Wuyou was a man with an excellent appearance. People who knew him would subconsciously nod, then shake their heads and sigh."What a pity."
His brows were deep, his facial features were handsome, and he had a high nose and thin lips. The most beautiful thing about him was his pitch-black eyes. His eyes were deep, his eyelashes were long, and the arc of his eyes was extremely beautiful. When he occasionally looked up, he seemed a little cold. His calm gaze did not reveal any emotion, but it did not make people feel cold either. He had a calm temperament that was well-read.
However, being overly thin would also damage a person's overall image. Because of the sunken cheeks, the cheekbones on both sides seemed to be a little prominent.
The decent casual clothes looked loose on his body. When he walked, he looked like a large kite from afar. In addition to his sickly pale skin, everything showed that Li Wuyou's body was not very healthy.
In the mid-to-late 1970s, it was the time when the country's educated youths were returning to the city. A large number of educated youths who had previously responded to the call to go to the countryside stood up and patted their butts and returned to the city. In addition to leaving countless crazy men and women and chicken feathers on the ground, there were also countless children abandoned by ignorant or helpless parents. The more responsible parents might leave some items related to their identity in their children's swaddling clothes and then leave their children at the door of relatively rich families. They were looking forward to the day when they could see their children again, but it was obvious that their parents were out of line. They were just thrown naked on the streets without even giving them a piece of clothing. If they wanted to live, they would have to see if they had a good life!
Li Wuyou was one of the countless children abandoned by his biological parents. According to the idle uncles and aunties in the village, he was one of them. In the early morning when heavy snow was falling and the water was frozen, Li Zhengsheng, who was drunk from somewhere, snatched back Little Worriless, who was abandoned by the garbage dump, under the claws of a group of wild cats with green eyes. Otherwise, he would have long become a pile of cat feces in the garbage dump.
When she was sent to the hospital, she was already on the verge of death. Her breathing was weak, and her body was covered in bruises. Occasionally, she could hear the weak cry of a newborn kitten. There were almost no intact parts of her body. There were scratches from wild cats everywhere, especially on her left chest.
Li Wuyou's luck was obviously very good, and his vitality was also very tenacious. Although the weather was a little bad at that time, he met the doctors and nurses who were very responsible. With the medical conditions at that time, such injuries were basically incurable. However, after more than ten hours of rescue by the doctors, Li Wuyou, who had been on the verge of death for a long time, was miraculously pulled back. Therefore, this child had a trace of hostility since he was born.
The surname Li was a big surname in Linghai. It was said that the ancestor was one of the direct descendants of Li Shizhen, a medical expert of the Ming Dynasty. He was once a famous imperial doctor in the Ming Dynasty. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the world was in chaos and smoke rose everywhere. After Li Zicheng broke through the capital, some descendants of the Li family took advantage of the chaos to escape from the capital. They followed the crowd south in a sorry state and came to Jiangnan. They settled down in Linghai. Later on, the Li family members were also very capable. They produced many capable people and improved their medical skills. Their legendary acupuncture technique was famous throughout the world. More than three hundred years had passed.
Li Zhengsheng was one of the direct descendants of the Li family of Linghai, a traditional Chinese medicine family. In history, the Li family of Linghai in Jiangnan was one of the four famous traditional Chinese medicine families in the country. Their reputation was well-known both at home and abroad. However, after nearly a hundred years of baptism and war, their former glory had long become a thing of the past. The acupuncture techniques passed down by the family were almost lost, especially in modern times. Under the deliberate rejection of modern Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine had gradually become synonymous with backwardness and superstition. It had been squeezed by Western medicine to the point where there was almost no place for survival. The current Li family in Linghai had long lost their family business and their population had withered. The entire Li family ancestral land only had two or three big cats and small cats left. They were still struggling to support themselves, waiting for the day when they could recover their former glory.
What was puzzling was that, as a descendant of a traditional Chinese medicine family, Li Zhengsheng had a strong interest in martial arts. As a member of the provincial martial arts team, he represented the province in many national competitions and won countless honors.
A man can't be happy for a thousand days, and a flower can't be red for a hundred days.
Ever since his legs were broken in a kung fu competition, Li Zhengsheng, who used to be high-spirited and heroic, was never able to recover. He had fallen into the state of drinking all day long. What was worse was that he had been infected with the bad habit of gambling, causing the originally happy family of four to become destitute and restless.
In the end, his wife, who saw no hope at all, went to the court to file for divorce. She left in disappointment with her children. From then on, there was no news of Li Zhengsheng. Li Zhengsheng was even beaten out of Li Village by the old man of the Li family.
After the divorce, Li Zhengsheng's temperament became even worse. In the end, he became a well-known slacker and loafer in Linghai. He lingered in the streets and underground gambling dens all day long, living a life of debauchery.
It wasn't until one winter morning more than twenty years ago that Li Zhengsheng returned to Li Village with a dying baby that he picked up from somewhere. His life gradually returned to normal. He relied on his family's medical skills to travel around the countryside and became a barefoot doctor.
After the child was adopted by Li Zhengsheng, he was named Li Wuyou. It meant that he was carefree and hoped that Li Wuyou could live happily for the rest of his life.
According to his father, the reason why he had taken a fancy to Li Wuyou at first glance was that he had seen an example of Li Wuyou's situation in an ancient book. This kind of child was different from ordinary children from birth. They were born with stronger spiritual power and were gifted. His father hoped to nurture Li Wuyou into a martial arts expert and inherit his unfinished wish. He wanted to return to the arena in his place and fulfill his wish.
Who knew that Li Zhengsheng had overestimated himself and his medical skills? Little Worriless 'injuries weren't as simple as those visible wounds on the outside. A newborn baby had been frozen in the cold wind for such a long time, and the results were obvious. The function of his heart and lungs had been damaged in different ways. He couldn't even participate in slightly more intense exercises, let alone practicing martial arts in the winter and summer.
Moreover, because those hungry stray cats had caused too much damage to Little Worriless's mind and body, it caused Little Worriless's sleep quality to be very poor. She would often cry non-stop the entire night. When she first brought her home, not only did she torture her father until he was exhausted, but she also caused the entire neighborhood to be in a mess and complain. From time to time, there would be aunties and aunties coming to complain and criticize her.
In the end, Li Zhengsheng had no choice but to move to the desolate and dilapidated Li family's old house in order not to affect his neighbors. It was not until Li Wuyou entered school that he moved back to Li Manor.
His father, who had tried every method to no avail, could only try his best. He patiently and slowly taught Little Worriless an ancient breathing technique from an ancient family book. Fortunately, his father had been in the martial world for a long time and had suffered many hardships. His patience had been greatly honed by society, and Little Worriless was also gifted and smart. From the beginning, he was barely satisfactory, but he gradually got better. He only got much better after he was six or seven years old, and he would occasionally have dreams.
However, the difficulty of raising a child as an old bachelor could be imagined. Li Wuyou had been very independent since he was sensible, but for some reason, children with incomplete families always suffered some inexplicable discrimination. Since he was young, other than having one or two good friends, Li Wuyou never played with children from normal families. He was often ostracized and laughed at by other children.
Because of his strong temperament, he was stubborn and had many fights with those children. Usually, when he had nothing to do, he was not willing to go out and play. He would either stay at home to practice calligraphy or read alone. The knowledge in the books could make him feel calm. Then, he would learn some martial arts and health preservation from his father. After so many years, he had walked alone. Other than his father, the only thing that had accompanied him was the vast world in the books.
As he had been weak and sickly since he was young, he had to master a lot of medical knowledge and skills that could save himself when necessary. However, Li Wuyou seemed to have inherited his father's strange personality. He was not very interested in medicine since he was young. Instead, he was very interested in artistic things like writing and drawing.
Under the protection of his father, Li Wuyou successfully completed his primary and secondary school studies. He had always been a standard top student, and his results had always been among the best. He had also received all kinds of scholarship, and he had published many diamonds in various journals. In the end, with excellent results, Li Wuyou was admitted to the affiliated medical school of Jiangnan University.
However, an unexpected incident during his sophomore year broke Li Wuyou's peaceful and orderly university life.
The disease caused by the chaotic life of wandering outside for a long time knocked down the old Li Zhengsheng. During a physical examination, he found out that he had late-stage stomach cancer. His only relative had this terminal illness. Facing this situation, Li Wuyou felt that the sky was about to collapse. He rushed back to his hometown in the county overnight and brought his father to the hospital in the provincial capital.
However, the medical fees in Ning Hai's hospital were so high that it was scary. His family, friends, neighbors, classmates, friends, acquaintances, and even the once arrogant Li Wuyou lowered his head and ran to borrow money from his acquaintances. However, the final result made Li Wuyou feel the cruelty of life for the first time. After running around, he only borrowed a few thousand yuan from a few good classmates. However, this money was just a drop in the bucket for his father's medical fees. At that time, Li Wuyou already had the idea of selling his kidneys and organs. As the saying goes, there is always a way out. Just as Li Wuyou was desperate and was about to drop out of school, his current wife, Fang Weiwei, the daughter of Fang Shiji, the president of Wenyu Group, came to him.
Wen Yu Corporation was one of the top family-owned corporations in Ning Hai City. It was one of the best among those who got rich first during the reform and opening up. However, due to some misoperations at that time, the company's capital chain broke. Fang Weiwei had to marry Luo Xiangyu, the son of the Si Hai Corporation in Shanghai, to get rid of the company's predicament at that time. However, as an elite who graduated from a famous university in the country with double masters, how could Fang Weiwei be willing to accept the manipulation of her family and become a chess piece for marriage?
In the end, a group of close friends urged them to get married. Li Wuyou, who was in urgent need of money to treat his father's illness, hit it off with him. The two of them took what they needed and immediately signed the agreement to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get a marriage certificate. At that time, Li Wuyou was not yet of marriage age, and it was Fang Weiwei who found a way to settle it. Li Wuyou received a huge sum of 200,000 yuan to treat his father's illness. After that, he moved into the Fang residence according to the agreement and became the live-in son-in-law of the Fang family in Ninghai.
Due to various reasons such as severe physical damage and terminal cancer when he was young, Li Zhengsheng could not make it through in the end. In the end, he passed away regretfully. Li Wuyou sent his ashes back to his hometown Linghai according to his father's last wish and buried them in the Li family's ancestral grave.
