Chapter 367 Sticky
The next morning, Lu Songli woke up at dawn. She opened her confused eyes, and the memories of last night gradually came back to her. She turned her head and found Qin Sheng lying beside her, his long arms wrapped around her slender waist, sleeping soundly.
Qin Sheng has fair skin and a little bit of stubble on his chin, which adds a bit of masculine charm to him.
Lu Songli looked at him quietly for a while, and finally came to a conclusion: her husband was really handsome.
Lu Songli slowly took his arm away. She tried to move as gently as possible, not wanting to wake him up and wanting him to sleep a little longer.
He was the one who took the lead all the way back to Liaodong County from the south. You can imagine how much pressure he was under.
You know, after the new year, he will be only seventeen, still a teenager, and should be taken good care of.
But just as Lu Songli stepped on tiptoe, Qin Sheng woke up. He closed his eyes, felt around, and called out vaguely, "Lili?"
Seeing him whining, Lu Songli soothed him, "You've been too tired lately, get some more sleep. I'll go to the new prefectural governor's mansion later."
"Wait for me, I'll go too and get up soon." Qin Sheng muttered, obviously still confused.
"Okay, take your time, don't rush." As she said that, she sat aside and combed her hair.
A quarter of an hour later, the young couple set off.
After Qin Sheng sent the person to the government office, he thought for a while, went out for a while, bought some gifts, and went to visit his mother-in-law in the backyard of the government office.
At this time, Lü Mingzhi no longer lived there, Lü Zhiyuan had gone to work at the paper mill, and Lü Xiao had gone to the Lü family private school. Only Lü Desheng and his wife, Mrs. Jiang, Tian Dasao, and their youngest daughter, Lü Dan, were left at home.
After Qin Sheng came in, he first greeted his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and then greeted Mrs. Tian.
After saying hello to her brother-in-law Qin Sheng, Mrs. Tian took her little daughter back to her yard. The little daughter had been feeling sleepy a while ago, and now she kept nodding her head.
Mrs. Jiang was indeed very happy to see her son-in-law come back. She looked him up and down to make sure he was safe and sound before she pulled him to sit down.
"When did you come back?"
"I got home last night."
"Up so early? Why don't you rest at home a little longer?"
"I've been away for too long this time. I miss you guys a little." Qin Sheng said shyly.
Hearing his words, Jiang's mother-in-law's heart softened.
Jiang took him aside and asked him about his well-being.
Lu Desheng couldn't bear to watch it anymore and kept humming, making quite a noise.
He was so annoying that Jiang immediately drove him away, "Go to the government office in front and work! You are not the kind of person who leaves everything to your daughter."
Qin Sheng pleaded, "Mother-in-law, father-in-law is not that kind of person. He must be unwell and that's why he's being lazy."
Jiang: "You don't have to speak for him, he's just lazy!"
Lu Desheng widened his eyes and said, "You little bastard with thick eyebrows and big eyes, how dare you flirt with his wife?"
Qin Sheng sat upright, his eyes on his nose, and his nose on his heart.
Jiang urged him, "Why don't you go review your documents? Also, Ah Sheng rarely comes home these days, so you should do more work and give the two children more time to rest."
Lu Desheng: A bolt from the blue!
In the next few days, Lu Desheng discovered that Qin Sheng escorted his wife to the county magistrate's mansion every morning. During this time, he would either accompany his mother-in-law or go out to do his own things. He would definitely appear in the evening to escort her back.
It's so sticky and it's unbearable to look at.
At this time, Young Master Ji was listening to Lu Songli's opinions in the county magistrate's office.
When Young Master Ji returned to Liaodong County, he discovered that the county had come up with a lot of new things in just a short period of time. However, he was puzzled by one thing: why would Liaodong County open a new winery when grain prices were so high and food was so scarce?
But he was only puzzled for a moment and then threw it away. His eyes were more focused on the mirror, shampoo, soap and other items. He felt that he could make a lot of money if he took them back to the South.
He had this intention, but Liaodong County could not make the decision, so he was asked to ask the people above.
When Young Master Ji saw Lu Songli for the first time, he found that although she had her hair in a bun like a woman, she looked really young.
He thought to himself, is this the powerful Mrs. Qin Liu that his father mentioned?
"Meet Madam Qin Liu."
"Master Ji, you're welcome. When you went north, was Uncle Ji in good health?"
"Thank you, Madam Qin Liu, for your concern. My father was in good health when I went north."
"That's good."
After a brief and friendly greeting, Lu Songli got straight to the point. "Master Ji, I heard you're planning to purchase a large quantity of mirrors, shampoo, soap, and other items in Liaodong County and then sell them back in the Southland?"
"Yes."
"Good vision."
Young Master Ji did not take it lightly. If she really agreed with his approach, he would not be standing in front of her in the County Magistrate's Mansion now.
Sure enough, he heard Mrs. Qin Liu's next sentence, "But I don't recommend you do this."
"Why?"
"After the Gu family sided with Xie Zhan, your Ji family is now a thorn in Xie Zhan's side in the South. At this time, it is more important to withdraw from the South in an orderly and safe manner."
“I think that’s why we should make the best use of it.”
Lu Songli: Young Master Ji has a big vision.
But Lu Songli still shook her head, "Forget it. These things will sell well no matter where they are placed. You can consider selling these items at other branches of your Ji family later, instead of taking them to the South to tease Xie Zhan."
Her meaning was very clear: don't always catch a sheep in the south and plunder it.
They in Liaodong County had just finished clearing their chips and left the scene, and the Ji family used mirrors, soap and other items to enter the scene to suck the blood of the South.
Although Lu Songli was not afraid of Xie Zhan, even a rabbit bites when it is angry.
The most important thing is that the South has been plundered. They brought back so much wealth last time, which means that the sheep has been plundered. If they plunder it again, the effort and reward will not be proportional.
Young Master Ji thought about her words seriously and found that it was indeed true.
At noon, Qin Sheng personally came to the front to call Lu Desheng and Lu Songli, father and daughter, to go back for lunch.
Lu Songli told Qin Sheng that the property they looted from Liufu Village had been transported back.
“About how many?”
"All the stuff together is probably worth about 20,000 to 30,000 taels."
"It's a bit too little." Qin Sheng said with disdain.
Lu Songli glanced at him and said, "Young man, you seem a little proud after your trip to the South."
After lunch, Jiang did not allow Lu Songli to go to the office and asked the young couple to go shopping.
Qin Sheng looked at Lu Songli eagerly.
Lu Songli looked at Qin Sheng's expectant eyes and smiled, "Then let's go shopping."
Today must be a good day. When they went out, they unexpectedly encountered two couples welcoming their wedding.
Qin Sheng protected her and kept her away from the crowd.
Lu Songli encourages childbirth.
As life gets better, people are willing to have more children.
After the autumn harvest, the matchmakers in Liaodong County began to visit villages in east and west, setting up matchmakers for people. It is said that some of them have worn out several pairs of shoes.
There are many people getting married after autumn and before the New Year. Recently, Jiang has also been looking for a girl for Lu Mingzhi.
