He casually picked up a rag from the table and stuffed it into Lejian's mouth to stop her crying. Then, he grabbed the back of her collar and dragged her out of the shop.
This scene terrified all the servants, including Tian Xiu.
She looked up and glanced cautiously at Ling Ba, but instantly looked away because of his serious expression.
This man looks terrifying.
After Ling Ba left, Qiu Yan calmly glanced at the group of servants.
"Did you all hear what Tian Xiu just said?"
"I heard you clearly, I heard you clearly..."
The servants echoed in agreement.
Qiu Yan said in a deep voice, "From now on, if anyone dares to be as arrogant as Le Jian, don't blame me for turning ruthless!"
Her words were resounding, and the workers, shrinking back in fear, echoed her, "Yes, what the boss says is absolutely right, we dare not disobey."
"Disperse, everyone go back to your own business." As soon as Qiu Yan said this, all the workers wiped the fine sweat from their brows. Don't underestimate their boss just because she's not very old; her aura is incredibly powerful.
Just now, when the employer reprimanded them for their lazy attitude,
They didn't dare to breathe loudly.
The workers took their positions and began to work diligently.
Just as Tian Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to greet the guests, Qiu Yan called out to her.
"Tian Xiu, wait a minute."
"Master." Tian Xiu immediately sprang to attention and stood respectfully before Qiu Yan.
He thought Qiu Yan would scold him, but to his surprise, Qiu Yan completely changed her serious demeanor.
"What you just said is correct."
Tian Xiu bowed slightly, "Thank you for your praise, sir."
Remembering what Yuejian had just said, Tian Xiu mustered her courage and knelt down before Qiu Yan.
"Master, Tian Xiu has a request."
"Tian Xiu, please speak freely. There's no need for such a grand gesture." Qiu Yan, still somewhat confused, helped Tian Xiu up from the ground. "Speak, what can I do to help you with?"
She is a modern person, and although she adapts to local customs, she believes in the equality of all people.
The prerequisite is that these people act according to the rules and do not disobey superiors.
Tian Xiu's eyes flickered slightly, and she spoke softly:
"I want to... sell myself, Master. Would you be willing to take me in?" Tian Xiu said, bowing her head.
Her mother died, her father remarried, and she was left all alone.
If Tian Xiuru wants to live a good life, she must find a way to survive.
If she sells herself to Qiu Yan, her employer will feel at ease using her.
Qiu Yan was slightly taken aback, then looked at Tian Xiu seriously, "Have you thought this through? What about your father's side..."
“I have thought it through. As for my father, Master, you don’t need to worry. I will repay him for the debt of giving birth to me, and from now on I will have nothing to do with him. In this way, I will be completely yours.”
...
Qiu Yan left the wonton shop and went to Wangyou Hall.
When he wasn't busy, Shen Yu would be studying medical books at Wangyou Hall.
Working at the pharmacy, Zhao Juan learned a lot about pharmacology.
Liu Qi... saw Qiu Yan and greeted her with a smile, "Boss, you've arrived."
Qiu Yan looked at Liu Qi's busy appearance with a puzzled expression and asked, "Are you treating yourself like a waiter at the Forget-Worry Hall?"
She had no recollection of ever recruiting this person.
Liu Qi curled his lips, turned his head and met Zhao Juan's gaze, only to be met with a glare from Zhao Juan. He remained oblivious, seemingly enjoying himself.
"My great-grandfather hired me."
Now, he is single-mindedly focused on growing old with Zhao Juan.
Even though Zhao Juan had no feelings for him whatsoever.
Qiu Yan sighed softly, "Great-grandfather, you really treat Liu Qi as your own great-grandson."
Business continued as usual; Qiu Yan only wanted to gain the trust of the people, treat patients, and save lives.
