Chapter 119 Shen Qingyao Takes Charge



Everyone in Hengshui Town knows Shen Qingyu; they initially called her "Sticky Rice Lady."

In the past, when people saw Shen Qingyu, they always looked at her with curiosity and smiles.

But when everyone saw Shen Qingyu today, their expressions were somewhat strange.

There was pity, admiration, and a look of anticipation in his expression.

Something must have happened.

"Don't go home yet, go to Lai Fook Kee." If Yu Qiao comes back, she'll know what happened.

She told the horse-drawn carriage carrying the goods and Qi Yunxiao and the others to return to Shenjia Village first. Shen Qingyu went to Laifuji Restaurant and found out what had happened.

Yu Qiao had only been back at Lai Fu Ji for a day when she saw Shen Qingyu and slammed her fist on the table in anger: "Qingyu, you're finally back! That Shen Qingyao, she's got some nerve!"

"What happened?"

It turns out that on the third day after Shen Qingyu was taken away, Qi Han suddenly fell into a coma. The matriarch of the family, Madam Qi, suffered a stroke and was paralyzed in bed with a crooked face and drooling!

Even his eldest son, whom he was so proud of, sprained his ankle and couldn't get out of bed!

When all these things come together, it's not a coincidence; it's man-made.

Do you know who's in charge of the Qi family now?

Yu Qiao's oddly shaped nose and eyes almost made Shen Qingyu laugh.

"Shen Qingyao?"

"It's Shen Qingyao!"

Yu Qiao slammed her hand on the table again: "Do you know what the first thing she did after taking charge was?"

Shen Qingyu grabbed her hand and rubbed it, laughing, "Stop taking pictures. If you keep doing that, your hand might not break, but the table will."

The softness and warmth of the touch interrupted Yu Qiao's anger, and her emotions miraculously calmed down a bit, allowing her to pour out her heart.

It turns out that after Shen Qingyao took over, she immediately gave up the bean sprout business and braised meat business in Shenjia Village and chose to find someone to do them herself.

In this hot weather, sprouting beans isn't difficult at all.

But for some reason, the bean sprouts that grew out were only half the length of the bean sprouts that Shen Qingyu's family had grown before, and they weren't as robust either.

He looks malnourished.

Even so, Shen Qingyao defied all opposition and sold the product.

Customers from nearby prefectures who were used to eating Shen Qingyu's bean sprouts would certainly not be willing to accept such a product.

Not only is the appearance bad, but the taste is also completely different, not to mention the effects!

So, within just two days, the regular customers started asking to switch back to their original items.

Where can Shen Qingyao get her things back?

As a result, the bean sprouts couldn't be sold in less than five days.

Left with no other choice, Shen Qingyao had to sell it at a lower price.

Even so, those former customers no longer wanted him.

In the end, a large number of bean sprouts rotted in the bucket.

The bean sprout business was thus cut short.

But Shen Qingyao was determined to surpass her eldest sister Shen Qingyu, so she started thinking about starting a braised meat business.

Anyone who has eaten braised meat can smell the subtle medicinal aroma in the meat.

What specific medication was used?

How much of each?

They didn't know.

How can this be imitated?

Shen Qingyao went to the pharmacy to ask, but the pharmacy said that Shen Qingyu had not bought any medicinal herbs in the past few months.

Shen Qingyu: We always purchase directly from the Space Mall, refusing to let middlemen profit from the difference.

It's still kept very secret.

In the end, Shen Qingyao bribed someone in Shenjia Village and managed to find a spice packet that Shen Qingyu had once used.

Although the dregs inside had been ground into powder and boiled in a pot, the experienced doctor still recognized the three spices.

Of course, the proportions were completely random and left to chance.

Using this, Shen Qingyao managed to build up her braised meat business, albeit with some setbacks.

At this point, Yuqiao got angry again: "Do you know who was bribed?"

Shen Qingyu asked, "Who is it?"

"That's the same aunt who harmed you before! She was kicked out of the Qi family before, but now she's back there! She's so arrogant and domineering!"

Shen Qingyu: "...Don't worry, I'm back, and their lives won't be any easier anymore."

Yu Qiao nodded repeatedly: "That braised meat is nothing compared to what you make! The taste is far inferior!"

Shen Qingyu nodded confidently: "I believe it."

But Yuqiao was worried that Shen Qingyu didn't know her enemy well enough, so she asked the waiter to buy a portion.

The shop assistant quickly bought it back, and Shen Qingyu tried it.

The saltiness was too strong, and there were too few spices, so the flavor was lacking... The taste was indeed not very good.

"Alright! I'm relieved now that I've tasted it." Shen Qingyu clapped her hands and got up to leave.

Yuqiao quickly asked the shop assistant to pack a lot of pastries for Shen Qingyu to take to the children.

I left in a hurry before, without leaving anything behind. All in all, my braised meat business and bean sprout business have been shut down for more than a month.

Not to mention glutinous rice.

Shen Qingyu was thinking that it was time to restart her braised meat and bean sprout businesses.

There were also more than 10,000 people who suddenly appeared...

Good heavens, that's more than ten thousand mouths!

Of course, if we look at it from another angle, more than 10,000 mouths are equivalent to more than 10,000 hands!

It can do quite a lot!

Shen Qingyu, with her own plans in mind, decided to take immediate action upon returning.

When the carriage arrived at Shenjia Village, Shen Qingyu was not surprised to see a large crowd gathered in front of her house, all of them villagers who had come to watch the spectacle.

The carriages that had previously delivered books and other items had already returned, and naturally, more people came to the village when they learned that Shen Qingyu had come back.

Someone saw Shen Qingyu's carriage approaching and shouted, "Qingyu's back!"

All eyes turned to Shen Qingyu.

Qi Yunxiao accompanied the village head as they walked out of the courtyard.

Shen Qingyu jumped off the carriage and looked at the villagers whose expressions clearly showed anxiety and unease. Thinking about Yu Qiao's words, she understood the anxiety in everyone's hearts.

"Qingyu, I heard you went to the capital. Will you still be doing business with us?"

Shen Qingyu immediately understood: They were afraid that all the subsequent business would be lost!

That's why as soon as I got back, they all crowded around me wanting to get to the bottom of things.

"Don't worry, everyone. I'm not leaving now that I'm back. The things we stopped doing before still need to be done. Everyone go back first, and I'll discuss it with Uncle Village Head and then let you know."

Even though everyone was anxious, they all said their goodbyes and left.

Qi Yunxiao had to worry about settling the more than 10,000 refugees and the Dragon Guards, so he turned around and went out the door.

There's only this one courtyard right now; it's barely enough for a hundred people, let alone ten thousand.

Therefore, people should absolutely not be brought into the house.

Above the mountain spring on the back hill, there's a large valley that can accommodate quite a few people...

Qi Yunxiao had already made plans on his way back. He had just sent the Dragon Guards over there to settle the people down first.

Shen Qingyu returned to the courtyard, invited Uncle Village Head to sit down, and then inquired about the situation.

The situation is more complicated than previously anticipated.

The sudden departure of Shen Qingyu and Qi Yunxiao caused unrest in the village.

Everyone was afraid that Shen Qingyu would never return!

What to do with those sweet potatoes?

What will happen to the repaired sweet potato workshop?
