Luo Lan understood Acai's thoughts. After all, with so many people accompanying her, how could such a huge palace survive if she didn't make some money?
She took a sip of the slightly cold tea and said earnestly:
"In business, you have to play the long game to catch the big fish. Besides, these people have a much better reputation than recruiting people myself. I think that as time goes by and we get more patients, our business will also improve. Then, by selling medicine and paying consultation fees, the income will definitely be considerable."
Speaking of this, she said to Liu Mei:
"Xiaozhi has made the greatest contribution today. Tell the kitchen to give him an extra chicken drumstick!"
Hearing this, Liu Mei put away her abacus and happily went to the kitchen. After she drank a cup of tea, Xiao Zhi came back skipping and jumping. Luo Lan couldn't help but blame him.
"Why are you back so late?"
Xiao Zhi wiped the sweat from his forehead and grinned, "It's not too late. If I wasn't worried that my sister would be too tired from seeing so many patients, I could have brought a few more over."
Looking at this child who is only six or seven years old but whose mind is much more mature than that of an adult, Luo Lan felt a little distressed.
She raised her hand, pinched his little face, and said softly:
"Let's go eat! I asked your mother to give you some chicken legs."
Hearing that there were chicken legs to eat, Xiao Zhi looked at Luo Lan in surprise, "Really? There are really chicken legs to eat?"
"Yes..." Luo Lan nodded with a smile, "There will always be chicken in the future. Our clinic opened today, and you made an invaluable contribution, so from now on, we will give you chicken legs with every meal."
Xiaozhi smiled and went to eat chicken legs happily.
She hadn't visited Leng Yu the entire afternoon, and she really missed him. That guy must be extremely anxious too!
She asked Caifeng to take a few servants to clean the main hall, and then she quickly went to the backyard.
The weather is cold, and I don't know if the charcoal fire in Leng Yu's hand warmer is still hot? This guy won't let anyone come in to take care of him.
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace. The queen who was guarding the door saw her coming and hurried to greet her.
"Princess, I heard that several waves of patients came today. Does this count as a good start to the business?"
"Sure!" Luo Lan grinned. "As long as we become famous, will we have customers in the future?"
When she was about to open the door, Ah Cai came hurriedly with dinner in her hand, saying as she walked:
"This meal has been heated up three times, but the princess has been busy all the time. I wonder if the prince is hungry? The servants don't dare to go in and disturb him."
Listening to her nagging, Luo Lan took the tray from her hand and said to the two of them:
"Everyone, go back and rest! I'll lock the door after I go in. I'm really tired today and need to go to bed early."
After she finished her instructions, she carried the food into the house. As the door opened, Leng Yu's voice came out.
"Lan'er, are you back?"
"Yes!" She put away all her tiredness and smiled at him.
"Are you starving? You don't know that several waves of patients came today, all of whom were brought in by Xiaozhi from other clinics. You will definitely say that what I did is not authentic!"
He poured him a bowl of rice and another for himself, then sat cross-legged on the bed and began to mutter:
"There's nothing I can do! The entrance to the palace is high, and most people don't dare to come in. Although Xiaozhi's method is a bit stupid, the effect is obvious. You don't think it's despicable for me to allow Xiaozhi to do this, right?"
He listened to her nagging while eating, and only shook his head when she finished speaking.
"No! How can this be mean? This shows that Xiaozhi is a very smart kid. If I have the chance, I really want to meet him!
”
When talking about Xiao Zhi, Luo Lan naturally praised him highly.
"I also think Xiaozhi is an extraordinary child. He has a lively mind, is willing to use his brain, and speaks in a clear and methodical manner. I don't think he looks like an ordinary farm kid at all."
"Why?"
Leng Yu was full, so he put down his chopsticks, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and looked at him curiously.
Luo Lan stuck out her tongue, pouted and chuckled, "I don't think children from ordinary families would have this kind of mentality. Like father, like mother!"
When he mentioned the child, he suddenly looked at her with deep affection.
"Then...will you give birth to my child?"
This question made Luo Lan stunned. She picked up her chopsticks, then put them down, looked at him with a red face, twitched her nose, and said coquettishly:
"Then you have to have that function! Otherwise, even if I want to, it won't work!"
Hearing her say this, Leng Yu suddenly choked on his own spit and coughed violently a few times. Luo Lan hurried over to pat his back, blaming him.
"Why all the fuss? I was just joking!"
Leng Yu suddenly raised his eyes, looked at her with his tender yet bottomless eyes, and said word by word:
"Lan'er, I feel so sorry for you. What I'm doing is equivalent to making you a widow. I'm such a useless person."
At this point, he kept beating his legs. Luo Lan realized that her joke was too serious, so she hurried to comfort him.
"That's not what I meant. I was just kidding you. I can wait..."
Just as she was trying to explain, a pair of broad and powerful hands clamped her waist tightly. His handsome eyebrows looked at her, and the tenderness in his eyes could completely melt one's heart.
His lips were only a palm's distance away from hers. Suddenly, he gently lowered his head, and his thin, cold lips moved close to her sweet lips. Her lips were extremely sweet.
It was Luo Lan who let Leng Yu taste the flavor of a woman's red lips. After that first time, he couldn't let it go, couldn't give it up, and even thought about it every day.
He kissed her lightly, as lightly as a chick pecking at rice, extremely gentle, and as carefully as if he was kissing a precious object.
