Jia Zizai was very happy. When he came down from the mountain, he cheerfully hummed on his way home.

“What’s the matter? Why you are so happy?” Hu Mei asked with a smile.

“I have good news for you,” Jia Zizai said. “We can even light firecrackers to celebrate it. Guess what it is.”

“When you went out, you found some money,” Hu Mei said.

“Ha, my darling, are we some kind of poor people?” Jia Zizai smiled. They had earned enough through the years to support them for three carefree lives.

“Mr. Wang agreed to accept you as one of his disciples. Is that it?”

“Bingo, you got it right!” Jia Zizai clapped and asked, “Look, my darling, should we celebrate that?”

“Of course, we should. I will cook a few dishes at noon to celebrate,” Hu Mei happily said.

“OK, I will heat a bottle of Chinese spirits.”

He was very happy, but Zhong Liuchuan, not far away from him, wasn’t when he came across a strange guest.

“Hello, do you know Dr. Wang Yao?” a man in a suit and glasses politely asked.

“No, you are barking up the wrong tree,” Zhong Liuchuan said.

“I heard that you are friends with Dr. Wang,” the man said.

“What the hell do you want?” Looking at the man with a gift box in his hand, Zhong Liuchuan was guessing where he had come from.

Did he come there because he knew the relationship between him and Dr. Wang after he was turned away by Dr. Wang for giving him gifts?

“I want to invite Dr. Wang to go on a home visit, but I was refused by him,” the man said. “That is why I came here to see if you could help. Uh, of course, not for free. I can offer you payment for that.”

“Sorry, I’m busy.” Knowing his intentions, Zhong Liuchuan decisively refused him.

“Ah, no, we can discuss the price if you are unsatisfied,” the man said.

With a lough bang, Zhong Liuchuan closed the door.

The man who was refused became gloomy. This was not the first person who rejected him. Before going there, he had gone to visit another household in the village. He had been refused in the same way without any hesitation.

“These people!”

Although he was angry, he knew that it was not the time to get angry. This place was not where he could take it out. His boss was still waiting for a reply, waiting for his good news. He thought it would be easy to get it. After all, this small mountain village looked poor. At least, in his point of view, there were no decent vehicles parked on the road in the village. When he spoke about the price, the first man, who was obviously not from a rich family, closed the door in the same way as the person just now.

Is Wang Yao so powerful in this village? Is no one willing to offer help after knowing he refused once?

He hesitated before going to another house.

He knocked on the door, but no one answered.

“No one is home?”

He went to another house, but no one responded to him.

“Hey, this is so strange!”

“I don’t believe it!” The man went to another house. He did it because he needed to satisfy the boss. He was also quite stubborn. Nevertheless, it turned out that none of the households in this row responded to him except for one, who had just refused.

He went to the second row of houses and knocked on the door one by one. When he knocked on the fourth house, someone finally opened the door.

“Who are you looking for?”

“Hello, how are you? Do you know Dr. Wang?”

“I know him, well. His clinic is over there.” Wang Zecheng, who opened the door, pointed at the building with an unusual architectural style.

“Are you his friend?”

“Friend?” Wang Zecheng frowned.

“Uh, hmm… I guess we are friends,” he said something, which was slightly contradictory to his thoughts. In his point of view, Wang Yao was his benefactor who alleviated his father’s illness and changed him from a bad son into a good one. He made him realize how valuable family ties were and what real life should be like. He enlightened him to take on the responsibility of being a son and a real man.

“Yes, I want to invite Dr. Wang for a home consultation, but he didn’t agree. Could you…”

“I see. Do you want me to be your lobbyist?” Wang Zecheng interrupted him.

“Yes, that’s what I am saying. You can rest assured that you will not offer me help in vain. As long as you make it, I will pay $3000.”

“How much?” Wang Zecheng was shocked and frowned.

“$3000. If you feel it is too little, I can add more.”

“Goodness, does your family own a mine?” Wang Zecheng asked after a while.

He thought, Rich men are quite different from us. Just being a lobbyist can earn as much money as one month’s salary. It might be more than that. It is so easy for them to get money.

“Sorry, you are barking up the wrong tree.” He smiled and refused the man’s request.

This must be a joke! Wang Yao treated his father and charged him only a small fee, which was a great favor. If he was to become a lobbyist for a man who had been refused for $3000, how shameless would he be?

“Hey, no, if you think the payment is not enough, I can add more!” The man was a bit anxious.

“Why do these individuals react in this way?”

“Sorry, I have something to do.”

The door creaked as it closed.

“His, this …” The man was unsure of what to do.

He thought, Can I just go back and report this to the boss? He hesitated for a while at the door of Wang Zecheng’s house. He decided to find another person to try. If they responded the same, he would go back and tell his boss.

He started a new round of knocking trip on doors.

“Who are you?” The man who opened the door this time looked to be wicked. He was holding a cigarette in his hand.

“Hello, do you know Wang Yao?” He asked the same thing.

“What do you mean? Do you want me to be your lobbyist?” Jia Zizai asked after hesitating a moment.

“Yes, that’s what I mean,” the man with the glasses said.

“Ha-ha… That is impossible. No one in this village will help you after you have been rejected unless his brain was kicked by a donkey,” Jia Zizai said with a smile.

“Is that your gift? What is it?”

“Tea,” the man with glasses said.

“What type of tea it is?”

“Longjing. It is West Lake Longjing.”

“Take it home and enjoy it yourself. Goodbye, I won’t see you out,” Jia Zizai said as he cheerfully closed the door and returned to the room.

“Does this mean it is impossible?” The man who was still outside talked to himself for a while.

He decided to leave the mountain village.

“Who was it?” Hu Mei asked.

“A strange person presenting gifts.”

“Gifts to give us?”

“Well, it was for me,” Jia Zizai said.

“Is he one of your friends?”

“No, I don’t know him at all.”

“Why did he give you a gift? Did he come to the wrong door?”

“He didn’t come to the wrong door. I guess there must be something that he hasn’t figured out yet!” Jia Zizai and Hu Mei carefully talked about the matter.

“He wanted Mr. Wang to pay a home visit, right?”

“Yes, but he did not agree. That is why he thought of other unjust and dishonest ways to solve it. I don’t know where these ideas came from. By the way, do you think he just went to see Mr. Wang’s house?”

“No, I have met his parents. They are kindhearted people. If he already met them, they would persuade Mr. Wang to see him for medical treatment.”

“Well, you are quite smart, but that is what he hates most.”

The man carrying West Lake Longjing Tea left the mountain village full of disappointment. He had never thought that the thing would go like that. The people in this village were uncooperative. When he returned, he reported exactly what happened to his boss.

“OK, I know. I’m going to go there this afternoon. If it doesn’t work, I’ll take my father.”

“I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”

“I can’t blame you for this. I inquired before going here. Dr. Wang’s rules are strange!” The middle-aged man waved his hand. “Let’s go there again.”

“OK.”

In the afternoon, a car drove into the mountain village.

“Why did you come back? As I said, I will not do a home visit,” Wang Yao commented when he saw the two people who had come the day before.

“Actually, Dr. Wang, I want to ask when you are free. I will bring my father to see you,” the middle-aged man said.

“I will not be traveling this week,” Wang Yao said. “If I do, you will be notified on Weibo in advance.”

“Well, I’ll bring the old man in two days,” the middle-aged man said.

“OK.”

“Wait, take the tea,” Wang Yao said and pointed to the tea on the ground.

“It is to show my appreciation.”

“No, take it back. Otherwise, don’t come to see me,” Wang Yao said. He was not his acquaintance or treat the man, so he would not accept gifts.

“Ah, OK.” The middle-aged man had his secretary take the gift with them.

“This doctor is really stubborn,” the man with glasses said. He had been refused many times earlier in the day. He tried to stifle his anger. After returning to the village, he had to let it out. There was someone who refused gifts, and they were not the only ones.

“This is a matter of principle,” the middle-aged man said.

“Principle?”

“Let’s go. We will bring the old man to see him.”

“But they said the old man shouldn’t travel.”

“We don’t have any other choice. Besides, how many doctors we have seen?”

The car drove out of the mountain village.

When Yao went home for lunch at noon. His sister and brother-in-law were there.

“Huh?” Wang Yao was stunned after seeing his elder sister.

“That was fast,” Wang Yao jokingly said.

“What was fast?” Wang Ru hesitantly asked.

“Sister, you and my brother-in-law, how long has it been since you got married? Yet, you are pregnant.”

“What? Pregnant?” Du Mingyang, who heard the news, jumped up. He was very surprised. “Are you sure?”

“Didn’t you know?”
