Chapter 593: Lu Yuan was almost recruited as a son-in-law
It is said that their ancestors settled there to avoid the chaotic world. Due to the rugged terrain, it was rarely attacked and in some years they were even regarded as bandits.
In times of chaos, villagers lived there to avoid danger, and they lived well for generations. However, in modern times, disadvantages have also emerged.
They stay in there all year round and seldom communicate with the outside world. Some of them have never left the village in their entire life and seldom speak the language of the outside world.
Some young people did go out, but unfortunately when Lu Yuan went there, all the young people who could understand some Mandarin had left.
Because of the language barrier and the severity of his injuries, Lu Yuan had to stay in bed for three months. During this time, he had learned their language and taught the children of the foreigners who came to see him, and learned some Mandarin.
Lu Yuan told them that the world outside had changed and they should communicate with the outside world. For this purpose, he even taught several children how to read and write.
After finally being able to communicate, Lu Yuan wanted to leave, but looking at the dangerous road and the abyss below, he could only stare blankly.
Lu Yuan had broken ribs and a broken leg, and because the injuries were so serious, they took a long time to heal. The village doctor's bone-setting skills were limited, so after he had healed a little, he developed a limp.
The village doctor later said that if he broke it again and then reconnected it, he might not be lame anymore, but Lu Yuan refused. He just limped for now. He wanted to go back first and see Gu Qingshi before they could talk about it.
".I want to come back earlier, but I don't dare to take risks when I think of you. I can only wait until my leg is healed and there is no danger before I come back."
"So you've been stuck up there and can't get down." Gu Qingshi was annoyed. "I've been asking people to look for people downstream. If I'd known, I would have looked for people up there as well."
"It's better to come down now and save your life." What Lu Yuan has always been worried about is that Gu Qingshi and the others are too sad.
"Yes, as long as we can come back, it will be the best. We have to thank them very much."
Lu Yuan nodded, "Yeah, I think so too. The biggest problem they have is inconvenient transportation. If the transportation gets better, many problems can be solved, and eating salt won't be a problem anymore."
"When we get back, we'll have someone send some salt and rice up there. Because of the terrain, they grow wheat and don't have the conditions to grow rice. They eat noodles all year round, and rice is a luxury."
"Send, send, send all." Gu Qingshi nodded.
"Their education is also backward, and many people are illiterate. This is a big problem. If it doesn't work, we'll have someone survey it to see if we can build a high bridge there to connect them to the outside world."
"Sure, I will support them when the time comes. I have to thank them very much." Although building roads or high bridges is no joke and requires a lot of manpower and material resources, it is good to be able to help them.
"Well, it would have been better if they could have moved out, but it's hard to leave one's hometown."
That is where our ancestors have always lived, so it is normal that they are unwilling to leave. Many people would rather be poor all their lives than leave their hometown.
"I've been talking about me for a long time. What about you? How have you been doing recently?" After finishing painting her nails and talking about Lu Yuan's situation, she couldn't avoid asking a question in return.
"Me? I'm doing fine. Except for Lu Qi and the others who jumped out, everything else is fine. I just raise the child. By the way, Lu Yuan, I also manage the Lu Corporation."
"Just these two sentences?" Lu Yuan was helpless, "Are you just trying to please me?"
"I'm not being perfunctory with you. It's true. Compared to what you've been through, my experience is nothing. And if you look into it carefully, you're just being perfunctory with me. You didn't even tell me how badly you were injured or what happened during your recovery period."
Gu Qingshi looked at Lu Yuan's outstanding appearance, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, "Lu Yuan, tell me the truth, is there a girl who likes you and even wants to keep you as a son-in-law?"
Lu Yuan froze for a moment, and he quickly covered it up, but Gu Qingshi still found out, "Sure enough, you still don't tell the truth."
Lu Yuan stroked his forehead and said, "I said, I said, there were indeed girls who said they liked me, but I didn't know what they meant at first. Later, when I found out, I clearly rejected them and told them that I had a wife. Qingshi, believe me, I definitely didn't betray you."
"Sure enough, someone likes you." Gu Qingshi could imagine how attractive a handsome outsider like Lu Yuan was to those girls. "Those girls are young and have their own characteristics. I wonder how pretty they are. Are you really not attracted to them?"
"No, really not." Lu Yuan said helplessly, "You are enough for me. If I like another one, I have nine lives."
Gu Qingshi actually knew this, but he was still curious. "Those girls are pretty, right? What do their clothes look like? How do they express their love?"
"Well, they have long hair and like to wear silver jewelry, but I didn't look at their faces much." Those girls were full of vitality and did have a unique charm, but Lu Yuan wouldn't look at them for long.
Those little girls say they are shy, but they are really bold. They will give various fruits and flowers if they like, and they can also sing folk songs.
When Lu Yuan was lying in bed and unable to get up, there were wild fruits everywhere and many flowers around. Later, he realized what they meant and quickly refused.
After being rejected, the girls did not insist, but they would sing when they were sad. They sang folk songs very beautifully, and then the boys sang loudly to comfort them. After singing together, they became a couple. Lu Yuan later even attended their wedding banquet.
This development caught Lu Yuan off guard. It was a very interesting experience for him. If he was not in a hurry to come back, the place with beautiful scenery and green mountains is really nice, and the local people are simple and warm, so it would be quite comfortable to live there.
Lu Yuan used the love and marriage stories of several young couples to divert Gu Qingshi's attention.
Gu Qingshi naturally wouldn't care about it anymore, as Lu Yuan had already been liked. However, she also had to do another thing - check the injuries on Lu Yuan's body.
Lu Yuan was pulled back to the room by her and said, "Take it off."
The same words were heard again when he returned to the bedroom. Under normal circumstances, Lu Yuan would have been very excited, but at this moment he could only smile bitterly.
Lu Yuan took off his clothes, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Although Lu Yuan said that it didn't hurt anymore, looking at the scars all over his body, one could still imagine how serious his injuries were and how painful they were.
Gu Qingshi turned on the bedside lamp, looked at the hideous wound, and wanted to touch it, but retracted his hand because it was wrapped with something.
"It's all right now. It's all over. If you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future. I just can't enjoy all the good fortune in the future."
"You said that before, I hope it's true this time."
"Of course. I'll start using your scar removal cream tomorrow. It will be gone soon. You can help me apply it then." Lu Yuan deliberately spoke in an ambiguous way.
