Lu Qiqi led Lu Dahai and Li Qingshan to the bathroom, followed by the Zhou brothers.
Seeing that they had all gone back inside, Madam Lu and Madam Li, along with Lu Yao and Xi Bao, came over to join in the fun.
Lu Qiqi had grabbed a handful of mud from outside and poured it into the squat toilet, then went to the kitchen to scoop out a ladle of water.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Lu Qiqi poured the water into the squat toilet.
With a splash, the water instantly washed away the mud, making it disappear.
Mr. Lu clapped his hands in surprise and exclaimed, "My God! This thing is amazing! The mud disappeared in an instant!"
Lu Qiqi was also very satisfied with the results of her work today; it was worth all the hard work she had put in for so many days.
Lu Qiqi smiled faintly, "This is called a squat toilet. From now on, you can take a shower and use the toilet in this shower room. After you finish using the toilet, just flush with water and all the odors will be washed away."
Lu Dahai never expected this thing to be so convenient. In the past, they used dry toilets, and they could see the filth left behind just by looking down. Now, they don't have to see the filth anymore.
Everyone understood, and they were overjoyed at the thought that they would never have to go out and smell the stench while squatting in an outhouse again.
Standing beside Lu Dahai, Li gently nudged him and said, "With this, we'll never have to worry about the child falling into the outhouse again."
Lu Dahai nodded. Back in Lijia Village, there had been cases of children falling into the dry toilet and drowning. After that, he and his wife kept a very close eye on Xibao and never let her out of their sight.
Now everything is fine, I don't have to worry about this anymore.
"However, this thing is prone to clogging. You can't throw anything in it except for the toilet, otherwise it will not only be unusable but also make the whole house stink."
Lu Qiqi was afraid that people wouldn't understand and would think that squat toilets could flush anything away, so she threw everything into them.
It's better to say the unpleasant things upfront, otherwise the smell when this thing is repaired will definitely be poisonous!
Although Lu Qiqi said we can't throw anything else in there, we can still use the toilet.
To find a place to use the toilet, these little kids drink a lot of water every day and always want to run to the shower room.
At first, Lu Qiqi thought they had kidney problems, but after taking their pulses, she was both amused and exasperated.
However, Lu Qiqi did not stop them. After the novelty wore off, they felt somewhat ashamed when they recalled the silly things they had done a few days ago.
Only Xi Bao, that little girl, would happily drink water every day and then run to the bathroom, thinking that since her older brothers and sisters didn't play, it was nice for her to play this game by herself.
...
It's the end of the month, and Lu Qiqi went to the spicy noodle shop to teach Zhou San how to calculate the final accounts.
Lu Qiqi was shocked when she realized that she had sold off most of the store's capital in just over a month.
Lu Qiqi sighed inwardly, 'No wonder I used to see news reports about breakfast shop owners driving luxury cars and living in big houses—it was all true!'
Lu Qiqi felt that living in a manor villa was just around the corner.
Lu Qiqi stored all the money she earned in a month in her small wooden cabin in her space.
The large pile of copper coins also caused Lu Qiqi a lot of trouble. She had to find a money exchange to exchange the copper coins for large-denomination silver notes or silver, otherwise they would take up too much space.
If others knew that Lu Qiqi was actually troubled by having too much money, they would definitely scold her for not knowing how lucky she was.
But Lu Qiqi felt that it was like trying to buy a luxury house with pennies; it was hard for her to afford, and it was also hard for others to count.
Lu Qiqi, Liu Tong, and Zhu Zi took the money to a money exchange and exchanged it for silver.
As Lu Qiqi approached the spicy noodle shop, she noticed many people pointing and commenting on it.
Lu Qiqi walked and laughed, saying, "Brother, if you want to eat noodles, you can go in and take a look."
The man in blue glanced at Lu Qiqi and sneered, "A restaurant that eats the dead, what are you up to by letting me in?"
"Bullshit!" Liu Tong grabbed the man in blue by the collar. "Try spouting another word of nonsense."
The man in blue was also angered by Liu Tong and shouted, "This noodle shop is killing people! One just arrived inside. The people inside can just wait for the authorities to come and arrest them."
Lu Qiqi's face immediately turned ugly. Ignoring what the man said, she rushed into the noodle shop, with Zhu Zi following closely behind.
Liu Tong also realized what was happening, quickly loosened his grip on the blue-clad man's clothes, and hurried back.
Lu Qiqi pushed through the crowd and saw Dunzi holding a chair, shielding Zhou San behind him.
As soon as Wednesday peeked out, Dunzi pushed him back with his hand.
Wednesday has sharp eyes and is adept at finding people and things; he spotted Lu Qiqi standing in the crowd at a glance.
On Wednesday, seeing Lu Qiqi was like seeing a savior; he eagerly shouted, "Sister Lu is back!"
Lu Qiqi stepped into the noodle shop, where four or five burly men stood in front of the stall, all turning to look at her.
A thin man was lying on the ground. As Lu Qiqi approached, she saw a woman kneeling beside him, wiping away tears.
Lu Qiqi asked coldly, "What happened?"
When Dunzi saw Lu Qiqi return, it was as if he had found his pillar of support. He said, "This couple ordered a bowl of spicy noodles and a bowl of pork bone noodles here."
"After finishing the noodles, the man collapsed and couldn't get up. These burly men and his wife felt indignant and asked him a few more questions on Wednesday, so they tried to attack him."
Lu Qiqi walked to the man who had fallen to the ground, squatted down, and saw a pool of milky white substance on the corner of his mouth.
Lu Qiqi lifted his eyelids to examine him.
The onlookers at the entrance also began to speak up when they saw Lu Qiqi's actions.
"No one from the government office has arrived yet; are they going to destroy the evidence?"
"This noodle shop actually poisoned people. It's a wonder that Mr. Yuancheng wrote the inscription himself. His heart is despicable."
"That's right, this person was poisoned to death, and they still went to move the corpse. It was just a girl, not a coroner, and that woman didn't stop them."
"Hey, you little brat, what are you doing! You poisoned my brother to death, and you still dare to touch him!" A burly man with a scar on his face and a ferocious expression shouted at Lu Qiqi.
Lu Qiqi didn't even look up and said, "I'm a doctor. It's strange that you didn't call a doctor or report to the authorities when this person collapsed."
Lu Qiqi's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the crowd gathered at the door to hear.
The scarred man was rendered speechless by Lu Qiqi's retort, so he gave a wink to the woman kneeling on the ground crying.
Lu Qiqi didn't see the woman's emotional change; she was about to take the pulse of the man lying on the ground.
The woman suddenly reached out to snatch her husband's hand back, shouting, "Your shady business poisoned my husband, and now you dare to disrespect his corpse? I'll fight you to the death!"
Lu Qiqi reacted instinctively; as soon as the woman's hand approached, Lu Qiqi broke the woman's wrist.
The woman burst into tears from the pain, and the crowd gathered at the door thought she was mourning her 'tragic death' husband.
People couldn't help but exclaim, "What a wonderful woman!"
Just then, Zhu Zi and Liu Tong squeezed in.
Seeing that more and more people were gathering around Lu Qiqi, the scarred man feared something might go wrong and suddenly launched an attack.
