In just an instant, Zhao Chunhua was drowned in everyone's saliva.
Chu Yue folded her hands on her chest and stood looking at her with a calm face. There was no emotion in her eyes, as if she was looking at a stranger.
Looking at the crowd of people around her who were criticizing her, Zhao Chunhua gritted her teeth bitterly. Knowing that she would not get any benefit from Chu Yue today, she patted her butt and squeezed through the crowd in dejection and ran away.
As he was leaving, he was grabbed and beaten several times by many women, making him extremely embarrassed.
Chu Yue looked at everyone with a hint of gratitude on her face.
"Thank you all for rescuing me. If it weren't for you, I would have been blackmailed by her."
People around him cast sympathetic glances.
"Doctor Chu, you're welcome. We were blind just now. People like this should not be tolerated. They must be sent to the official next time."
"Even so, Dr. Chu was too kind to let her leave like this."
Chu Yue sighed.
"After all, I have nothing to lose, so just leave." She waved her hand, "Everyone must be busy with their own things, so go ahead and get busy. I also have to go back to the medical clinic for treatment."
"Hey, Doctor Chu, take your leave."
Chu Yue smiled at everyone, then turned and returned to the medical center.
As soon as he came in, he saw Lu Yufang walking up.
"Yueyue, what are your mother and your brother doing here?"
"They said my father was captured and drafted into the army, and asked me to fish him out." Chu Yue rolled her eyes, "If I have this ability, I must fish out cousin Chang Lian first."
Lu Yufang covered her mouth and smiled.
"They don't think that you, the country gentleman, are omnipotent, do they?"
Chu Yue's face was expressionless, "Don't tell me, I'm afraid that's what they think, and they want to get some benefits from me. They don't even think about whether I will be taken advantage of?"
Lu Yufang sighed and looked at Chu Yue with some distress.
"With the temperament of your mother-in-law, if you want to benefit from it, there will be countless times. Don't be soft-hearted. They will peel off your skin later, and they will have to bury you later. You didn't give enough."
Having been together for so many years, Chu Yue certainly knew their virtues.
"I'm not that stupid either."
Lu Yufang smiled and took Chu Yue's arm to change the topic.
"Yueyue, was Banpo Village very lively yesterday? It's a pity that I have to guard the medical center, otherwise I really want to join in the fun."
"People from the whole village are here, it must be lively." She glanced at Lu Yufang beside her, "The hospital is a little busy these days. Dr. Zhu can't handle it alone, and he always leaves the hospital to an old man. , he will have to complain later that I abused the elderly, so you can take care of me."
Lu Yufang smiled.
"I know. I don't mean to complain. I just feel it's a pity. I love the excitement the most."
Chu Yue nodded and looked at her with a smile.
"By the way, has Mr. Xu sent you a letter recently?"
When Xu Heng was mentioned, a hint of shyness flashed across Lu Yufang's face.
"I have written to him three times in the past few days. He said that the marriage proposal should be delayed. He told me not to worry. He is dealing with the affairs of the Xu family. It seems that the Xu family has different opinions."
Chu Yue hummed.
"Mr. Xu is a safe man. If you have anything to do, please discuss it. The Xu family has a great business. It is normal for your marriage to have resistance. Good things come in hard times."
Lu Yufang raised the corners of her lips.
"When I saw him not responding for so long, I thought he was regretting it. Now that I have heard from him, I don't feel as anxious as before."
"Yes."
Chu Yue came to the counter, picked up the charcoal pen on the table, and wrote something on a blank piece of paper.
"It's already the second day of April. Miss Shen's second store in the county will be opened in two days. Our third store, Hongyan Pavilion, I plan to open in Yuezhou."
As she spoke, she wrote the word Yuezhou on the paper.
Lu Yufang was shocked.
"You want to open a shop in the provincial capital? Is it possible? We don't have any foundation there."
"Don't worry. Since I plan to open the shop there, I must have considered many aspects." Chu Yue looked at her, "I am telling you this mainly because I want to ask you, do you want to join the shop?"
She put down the charcoal in her hand.
"I'm thinking about dividing the store's revenue into one hundred shares. I should keep fifty-five of them myself, and the remaining forty-five can be released. The current price of the shares is thirty taels of silver per share. , dividends are paid at the end of each year. If the shop's annual income is one thousand taels of silver, a partner who holds one share will receive ten taels of silver. Of course, if there is a loss, the partner will bear the corresponding risks."
"After all, there are profits and losses in business, and I can't promise that I will only make profits and not lose money."
What Chu Yue said was simple and easy to understand, and Lu Yufang understood it immediately. She didn't doubt Chu Yue's intentions at all.
Judging from the increasing order volume in the county, Hongyan Pavilion's business has initially stabilized and is becoming more and more popular.
Chu Yue now has such a good opportunity in front of her, and of course she will not miss it.
"That sounds good, but if I add the ten taels of silver I paid to the Yan family last time, it's less than twenty taels..." Lu Yufang said, and immediately looked at Chu Yue, "Yueyue, if you're not in a hurry, , the hospital is closed in the evening, can I go back and ask my parents?"
Chu Yue nodded, "Okay, I'm not in a hurry, but you can't delay too long."
"I won't delay for too long. I will definitely give you the answer tomorrow." Lu Yufang looked at Chu Yue with some embarrassment, "Yueyue, if possible, can I buy two shares? I want to give my parents one share. share."
"Of course you can!"
At this moment, a strange woman walked in at the door. It was neither windy nor raining. She was actually wearing a headscarf and looking sneaky in her clothes.
She looked inside, and then asked cautiously, "Is Dr. Chu here?"
Chu Yue walked out from behind the counter.
"I'm here, you are?"
The woman hurried forward and pulled Chu Yue to a corner.
"Dr. Chu, my menstrual period was always on time before. This time, for some reason, it was suddenly delayed for more than ten days. Can you help me take my pulse?"
Chu Yue led her to the consultation table, closed the curtains around her, and then motioned for her to stretch out her hand and take her pulse.
After a moment, Chu Yue looked at her.
"In addition to irregular menstruation, is there any other reaction in the body?"
"My lower abdomen always feels bloated."
"Where are the breasts?"
"This..." the woman said with some embarrassment, "it seems to be a little swollen and painful, and it has grown a bit."
Chu Yue nodded.
"Congratulations, you are pregnant, but the time is still short and your pulse is not very obvious. I estimate that it should be almost a month."
"We are really happy!" The woman pulled off the scarf on her head with a face full of surprise, "Is what Dr. Chu said true?"
"Of course it's true. Why did I lie to you about such a thing?" Chu Yue said, writing a prescription for anti-fetal medicine on the paper, "This is anti-fetal medicine. After returning home, I will take one pill every day. Three times a day.”
The woman looked at Chu Yue with complicated eyes, and she was a little unsure of what she was thinking.
"Doctor Chu, let me ask you something." She suddenly stepped forward.
Chu Yue raised her head and glanced at her, "Say."
