"Wow, who wove this flower?" Xu Zhaoyue took the flower from the child's hand, squatted down, and spoke to her.
"It was knitted by an adult. I don't know how to do it yet. I only know how to make hair accessories." The child pointed to the headmistress and the teacher behind her.
Xu Zhaoyue saw several adults introducing the products ahead, so she took the child's hand and went over. "Do you accept donations?" Xu Zhaoyue walked up to the older people.
"Good afternoon, Miss. Of course we accept donations. How much would you like to donate?" The dean looked at the elegantly dressed woman in front of him, whose face was exquisite and whose temperament was leisurely. If she were to donate, it would certainly be a considerable amount. So the dean put his hands together and bowed to her.
Xu Zhaoyue nodded slightly in return, "If that's acceptable, please give me an address, and I'll send someone to the orphanage."
"Okay, okay, we have business cards." They were called business cards, but they were actually addresses and phone numbers written on cardboard, neatly cut. They found one in the yard and handed it to Xu Zhaoyue.
After accepting the flower, Xu Zhaoyue looked at it in her hand and asked, "How much is this one?"
"It's not worth much money. We'll give you a flower just for putting it in the donation box. If you like it, Miss, you can take it home. Just be careful to keep it out of the dust," the courtyard servant said.
"Xiao Nan, go put it away. I'll take this flower with me." Xu Zhaoyue nodded to Xiao Nan, who immediately went over and put a handful of money into the box.
After getting back into the car, Xiao Nan noticed that the young lady was staring at the flowers. "If you like them, I'll go back and find a glass cover to put them in so they won't get dusty," she said.
“Okay, but these knitted ones will fade. Have the sculptor carve another blue rose. Oh, what was it I chose last time?” Xu Zhaoyue asked, puzzled.
But Xiao Nan remembered this: "A brooch, a hair clip, a necklace, and a watch face." Xiao Nan gestured to herself as she named each item, and when she mentioned the watch face, she even pouted slightly. That watch face was obviously for Yue Lanxing.
"I was just saying there was something I forgot to tell Yue Lanxing. Let's give it to him as a discharge gift once he's recovered." Xu Zhaoyue rubbed her temples. She wanted to go back for a nap; she was already dizzy from looking at a whole box of documents.
"By the way, when you have time, go and donate some money, and check on the situation at the orphanage. If it's a scam, don't donate," Xu Zhaoyue said with her eyes closed.
Xiao Nan took the cardboard from her hand. "Okay, miss, how much money is appropriate to donate? In whose name?"
“The amount is three thousand, and we’ll use my name. We’ll also talk to the courtyard about the children’s health. The Xu family can cover any minor injuries or illnesses.” Xu Zhaoyue opened her eyes as she said this. “Let’s not talk about this for now, we’ll deal with it in a few days. Just donate the money this time.”
Xiao Nan naturally complied.
After returning to the villa, Xu Zhaoyue went to take a nap. She lay flat on the bed, trying to fall asleep. After a while, she sat up and started thinking.
Let's take a look at her current work and life. The company is proceeding with the normal process and has started producing trial drugs. There are no worries at home. Xu Guangcai is away from home for long periods of time. Xiao Hao listens to her. Xu Zhaoming doesn't bother her.
Yue Lanxing's vomiting of blood yesterday was an accident, and given his physical condition, he should be back in less than a week.
But why did she feel a sense of unease? It was inexplicable, yet she had a premonition. Xu Zhaoyue couldn't figure it out, so she told herself that she would be safe from harm. After repeating it to herself for a while, she actually felt a little more at ease.
In the end, Xu Zhaoyue still managed to take a comfortable afternoon nap. After waking up, she played with Doubao Qingying for a while, spending several workdays without Yue Lanxing's protection.
Yue Lanxing was discharged from the hospital in the morning. In fact, he could have been discharged after three days, but in order not to worry the young lady and because there were plans to discuss, he stayed in the hospital for five days.
Xu Zhaoyue had only been working for a short time at this point. "The feedback these past few days has been great, so we can officially start production now." Her colleagues were also happy about the product's success and were all looking forward to its debut at the anniversary celebration.
However, Xu Zhaoming didn't want her to steal the spotlight at the anniversary celebration and was preparing to cause some trouble. "Can't we get into the pharmaceutical factory?" Xu Zhaoming frowned. "Isn't that the Xu family's pharmaceutical factory? Why can't we get in? No matter how powerful Xu Zhaoyue is, she can't possibly prevent people from getting in!"
“We just can’t get in, and that pharmaceutical factory definitely doesn’t belong to the Xu family.” The assistant glanced at her before continuing, “That place was left to the young lady by her mother, and it has nothing to do with the Xu family.”
"How can it not have anything to do with the Xu family? Even if it was left to her by her mother, wasn't it given to her by my father?" Xu Zhaoming said angrily. Then she saw her assistant's hesitant expression and realized that it really wasn't her father's.
When Xu Zhaoyue's mother married into the family, she brought a large dowry. To be honest, her father was marrying above his station. However, he died young after marrying far away, but all of that dowry ended up belonging to Xu Zhaoyue.
Xu Zhaoming felt upset just thinking about it. They already had so much, yet they still wanted to take it from her. "Think of another way. What use are you if you can't even handle one thing?"
"I asked you to find out what they were doing before, and after all that searching, I only found out about it after everyone else knew that Xu Zhaoyue was making Chinese herbal lozenges. You've been such a failure as an assistant!"
Faced with the responsibility, the assistant still nodded and bowed, not daring to explain at all, "It was my fault for not handling things properly. I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly. They must have been involved in this."
"Do you think I don't know what you're saying? This kind of stuff is very prone to problems with the raw materials. Find a way to add the drug to it. Once something goes wrong, it'll be easy to deal with. Let's see how she'll have the face to stay in the Xu family." Xu Zhaoyue then asked her assistant to come up with a solution.
