Chapter 202 The Perfect Young Master
"Once bitten, twice shy," Chen Cuihua summarized the lessons learned from this experience of being scammed.
It was because she thought Ji Family Restaurant was a big establishment and couldn't possibly be a scam, and because she wanted a lot, that she lost her head.
So when people suggested signing an IOU first, she believed them without a second thought when settling the bill the next day.
After she learned this, she insisted that no matter if it was a large restaurant or an individual, the principle was to collect a deposit and deliver the goods, and the balance should be paid in full upon delivery. No credit would be accepted, and no excuses would be tolerated!
Lu Qingqing gave her all three hundred taels of silver she had received, and told her to open a wholesale shop in the city, stock the goods, and hire employees.
He also told her that if anything happened, she was not allowed to confront people on her own, but to come back and discuss it immediately.
Many hands make light work!
One person cannot carry a heavy load.
Many hands make light work!
At the same time, land reclamation on the mountain also began.
All privately owned forests in Ming'an County were confiscated for government use.
Then the money was distributed to each village and household, becoming privately owned, and taxes were paid on it.
In the mountains and forests, one can see people clearing land everywhere.
The Lu family also received five acres of mountain land. Apart from Feng Xiaowan and Lu Yun who were busy in the workshop, the whole family was there.
Old Man Lu and Lu Feng dug up stones and added soil to the forest.
Lu Qingqing led Qiaoxiu and Liuer to plant medicinal herb seedlings.
When Mu Daye arrived, he felt heartbroken seeing Liu'er working.
His clean hands were covered in mud, and strands of wet hair clung to his cheeks.
However, she seemed very happy.
Her eyes were sparkling.
Unlike when I'm at home, I don't always stare blankly into space.
"Liu'er, are you happy here?"
"Mu Daye, my name is Liu Qingran!" Liu'er tilted her head and smiled at him.
Mu Daye was stunned.
He looked at Lu Qingqing in disbelief.
Lu Qingqing raised an eyebrow. "Yes, her name is Liu Qingran. She is now someone who knows her own name."
Lu Qingqing said that she would gradually dig into her memories.
Reassemble in sequence.
Her memory was no longer a blank blank; images began to appear little by little.
His eyes naturally sparkled with life.
"Dr. Lu, how did you do that? In just a few days?" Mu Daye exclaimed incredulously.
"I'm a doctor, so I naturally have methods. It's even possible to dig out all of her memories, but as I said, that's too dangerous and can't be rushed."
What I know so far are her memories from when she was a few years old. Her name was Liu Qingran, and she had parents. As you said, she was indeed a young lady from a wealthy family, with servants accompanying her to catch butterflies. She must have been very pampered at home.
Although Mu Daye knew that Lu Qingqing could cure people, he did not expect the results to be so quick.
His eyes welled up again. "Thank you, Dr. Lu."
"Don't blame me for making her do chores; it's good for her condition."
"I know, I understand."
Mu Daye took out an exquisitely carved little wooden monkey from his pocket.
Liu'er's eyes lit up immediately, and she took it to play with.
Qiaoxiu glanced at it and thought it was quite cute.
Unexpectedly, Mu Daye took out a small wooden dog and gave it to her.
"Miss Qiaoxiu, thank you for your help these past few days."
"What trouble is there? Sister Liu'er is very nice."
Qiaoxiu grinned, took the puppy, and twirled its moving tail.
It's actually quite fun.
Lu Qingqing laughed. This Mu Daye was afraid that Qiaoxiu would bully his Liu'er!
Mu Daye also helped with the work.
A little while later, Xu Rui arrived with more than a dozen people.
"Uncle Lu, Brother Lu Feng, let them handle the land reclamation; you don't need to worry about it."
Everyone stopped.
Lu Qingqing stood up and stretched her arms and legs.
"Dad, you should go to the workshop. It's busy there. Big brother, you should go home and do your work too."
"Okay, let's go back first."
Xu Rui always comes about medicinal herbs, and everyone is used to it; the villagers are all very familiar with him.
On several occasions, he even went down to the fields with everyone to plant seedlings, earning high praise from the villagers.
The Lu family liked him very much, and after exchanging a few words, Old Man Lu and Lu Feng went home.
This time, Xu Rui has found new seeds.
Bring it over and show it to Lu Qingqing.
"poppy!"
Is this it?
"Yes, this is it!"
Lu Qingqing asked him to help find this, and he found it so quickly.
"However, we need to wait another month to plant it. This plant is precious and dangerous, so we'll plant it at home."
"Okay, you take a rest, I'll plant the seedlings."
Without waiting for Lu Qingqing to speak, Xu Rui picked up the remaining seedlings and began to plant them skillfully.
His fair, jade-like fingers were noticeably thicker than before, and had developed thin calluses. His body, even without taking off his clothes, showed a strong chest and abdomen, making him no longer appear as a weak man.
I heard that the villagers call him "Master Jiuquan" behind his back.
He was originally perfect in every way, but everyone thought he was disfigured, so he wore a mask, hence the name "Nine Perfections" Gentleman.
This is truly the highest praise.
Lu Qingqing sat under the tree, chewing on a blade of grass. After watching for a while, she concluded: The villagers were wrong. This is what should be called "perfect"!
With that kind of bearing and physique, if he had an ordinary face, he might as well not take off his mask!
Gu Chengzhou, who was digging in the ground nearby, whispered to another brother.
"Good heavens, young master has planted seedlings for others several times, and now he can finally openly help Miss Lu plant seedlings."
Mu Daye didn't want to hear it, but his ears were just too good.
They couldn't help but look at Xu Rui and Lu Qingqing in surprise.
The magistrate's son, Doctor Lu?
Suddenly feeling a gaze, he turned his head.
The person who had just spoken was staring intently at Liu'er.
Mu Daye immediately became vigilant and on guard.
He stepped in front of her, then turned to Liu'er and whispered, "Liu'er, when I'm not around, you must stay by Doctor Lu's side. Don't go alone."
Liu'er looked at Lu Qingqing, who was three steps away, in a daze, and then went over and sat down next to her to play.
Mu Daye: He was referring to when he wasn't around...
Well, at least that person knows that Liu'er is being protected by Doctor Lu.
He stopped looking in that direction.
Gu Chengzhou was thinking about Mu Daye's silly wife, who seemed somewhat familiar.
But he was certain he had never seen it before.
What's going on?
"Brother Zhou, that Mu Daye overheard us talking just now," his brother reminded him.
Yes, this Mu Daye is quite capable and has potential. It's a pity he's just a bodyguard.
Gu Chengzhou walked over: "Hey, bro, wanna be friends?"
Anyone who befriends you will obviously have ulterior motives and ill intentions.
"This humble subject dares not."
"Don't be so polite, come on, let's make friends through martial arts."
Mu Daye didn't want to deal with this person and was about to refuse.
The village head of Liuyun Village rushed over in a great hurry.
"Young master, Qing'er, something has happened to Xiao Zhang!"
