Juanjuan, whose adoptive parents had died, was sold by her uncle for ten silver dollars into the Warlord's Mansion to bring good luck to the severely ill only son, Si Jinchen.
She thought...
Chapter 220: This Wang is Not Sick
"Woof woof. Who is sick? I am not sick." Songsong jumped up immediately.
"Clack, clack. Yes, yes, we're fine!"
Old Madam Si saw a group of little guys who had just been dejected, now they were full of energy, strolling around in front of them with their heads held high.
"Mom, they don't look sick to me." Si Ning looked at the group of cute little guys in front of him.
"It's indeed not like it. Why don't we observe it for a while longer?" Old Madam Si nodded in agreement.
Juanjuan and Si Jinchen knelt on the carpet and lay on the sofa looking at the photos, laughing happily from time to time.
"Madam, Mr. Liu is here." The housekeeper walked in from outside.
"Cheng'an?" Old Madam Si was a little surprised.
"Yes." The butler nodded.
"Let him in quickly. I heard that he has been very busy recently. I haven't seen him for a while." Madam Si smiled and asked the housekeeper to invite him in.
Liu Cheng'an was holding a lot of things in his hands. As soon as he came in, he greeted them and sat on the sofa, putting the things in his hands on the coffee table.
"Uncle Qiuqiu, you've lost weight!" Juanjuan looked at the person sitting on the sofa.
"Have you become more handsome?" Liu Cheng'an looked at her with a smug look on his face.
"Not as handsome as my dad, second uncle, aunt-in-law and brother." Juanjuan answered seriously.
Liu Cheng'an's mouth twitched. Forget about the first three, your brother is just a little kid. How could I not be as handsome as him?
"Master Liu, is this cloth?" Si Ning reached out and flipped through the things on the table.
"Yes, this is what the governor asked me to make before. These are samples. I called him and he told me to just send them to the governor's mansion." Liu Cheng'an explained, pointing to the fabric on the table.
Madam Si looked through the fabrics. They looked colorful and not very pretty. "What are these for?"
"I don't know about that. This is what the governor told me before. I don't know what it's for." Liu Cheng'an really didn't know.
"Okay, you keep the fabric. I'll give it to him when he comes back. You've been working hard lately. Jingqiu said today that you haven't been home for a long time and have been working in the factory the whole time."
"Is it just for these fabrics?" Si Ning looked at the fabrics and had no idea what they were for.
"Yes, the fabric is ready now. I'll leave first." Liu Cheng'an got up and left the Governor's Mansion.
Madam Si looked through the cloth on the coffee table curiously: "I don't know what these cloths are used for."
"Juanjuan knows." Juanjuan looked at the cloth on the table, her eyes curved into crescents.
Si Ning looked at her curiously: "Can Juanjuan tell us?"
"Yes! This is where my dad works, and many brothers use it to play hide-and-seek together." Juanjuan answered seriously.
Now, let alone Si Ning, even Old Madam Si was confused.
Is it useful to play hide-and-seek with many brothers?
When did the Supervisory Office start playing games?
The two of them looked at Si Jinchen together, but this time even Si Jinchen couldn't explain.
"Mom, did Liu Cheng'an deliver the things?" Si Ming walked in from outside and interrupted everyone's guesses.
"Yes, it was just delivered." Old Madam Si saw Si Ming coming back and pointed to the cloth on the coffee table.
"Dad, are these for my brothers to use for playing hide-and-seek?" Juanjuan ran over and hugged him.
Siming bent down and picked her up with one hand, gently scratching her nose: "Yes! Thanks to your help."
Juanjuan scratched his head and said, "I didn't help Dad!"
Si Ming held her and sat on the sofa, and asked Si Jinchen to sit over as well: "Anyway, you have helped Dad a lot."
"Dad, these fabrics are so strange, what are they used for?" Si Jinchen was also very curious.
"These fabrics are used to make clothes. For example, in forests and deserts, the color of the fabric is a good protective color." Siming said as he picked up a piece of fabric behind him to check.
These fabrics are pretty good, with a good softness and hardness. Now I just have to wait and see after the clothes are made.
"Dad, are you going to make clothes?" Juanjuan tilted her head and looked at the cloth in his hand.
"Yes, Dad is planning to make training clothes for Uncle Qi and the others, but he hasn't figured out how to make them yet." Siming plans to go to the new clothing store to discuss it with the tailor tomorrow.
"Dad, Juanjuan is very good at drawing clothes." Juanjuan looked at him with a smile.
"How about Juanjuan draw a few pictures for dad, and then dad will take them to show to the tailor." Siming didn't want to spoil the child's interest.
Whether it can be done and what to do is another matter, but now he doesn't want to disappoint Juanjuan.
"Okay, I'll go draw now." Juanjuan jumped off the sofa and pulled Si Jinchen towards the study.
"How is Wen Ce?" Old Madam Si knew that he was awake, otherwise Yan Anqing would not have asked for leave today.
"He's out of danger, but he lost a lot of blood. He may have to stay in the hospital for a while." Si Ming took the tea that Bai Qiao handed to him.
"I'm glad you're okay. Do you need me to make some food and send it to you?" Old Madam Si was worried that he wouldn't get enough nutrition.
"No need, Madam Yan has already sent it, they all know each other." Siming shook his head.
Si Ning: "Who is chasing him?"
"He himself didn't know that the hydropower station in Jingzhou had been shut down for a long time due to funding issues. He was worried about completing the hydropower station."
"I went to many places and asked many people for help, but no one was willing to invest money. Finally, it was Mr. Yan who wrote him a letter, asking him to come to Beiyang City and tell him that we wanted to build a hydroelectric power station."
"He was a little hesitant at the time and considered it for a long time before agreeing. He had studied abroad when he was young, and that's where he learned his skills in hydropower engineering."
Sima Ming briefly introduced some of Wen Ce's situation.
"Doesn't he have any family?" Mrs. Si was a little confused.
"No, he was completely absorbed in the design of the hydroelectric power station. He didn't get married even after his parents died."
"Jingzhou suddenly erupted in riots. He knew there was no hope of completing the hydropower station in Jingzhou. That's when he decided to come to Beiyang City, hoping to complete a hydropower station designed by Chinese people."
"Someone stopped him on the road and wanted him to go with them. He refused and an argument ensued. Then they shot and injured him."
"He also took advantage of the chaos to hide in the mountains. He was going to Beiyang City to build a hydroelectric power station. He had memorized a lot of the topographical maps here, otherwise he probably wouldn't have been able to escape."
"We arrived at the territory of Beiyang City, and those people seemed to have disappeared without a trace."
After saying this, Siming glanced at the study and said, "It's all thanks to Juanjuan. Otherwise, he would have died outside the city and we wouldn't have known about this person."
"This child always helps us a lot. We must not let her down in the future." Old Madam Si sighed.
"Mom, don't worry! No one will be wronged, and Juanjuan will not be wronged. She is the treasure of our family." Si Ning said, holding her hand.
