Ningdong heard the sound, entered the house, took the letter from Chu Yue and went out.
Looking at Ningdong's leaving figure, nostalgia flashed across Chu Yue's face.
My husband was with me during the Chinese New Year last year, but I haven’t come back this year. I wonder when we will see each other next time?
He won't have to wait until he wins the imperial examination, right?
I don’t know when he will receive this letter? Have you had a quiet year this year?
After being apart for half a year, my longing for each other has only grown stronger.
…
In a small courtyard somewhere in the capital, Aji carried a food box from outside into the courtyard, came to Lu Xinghe and said, "Master, Mrs. Yuan said that you didn't go to the Yuan Mansion for a New Year reunion, so she asked her servants to bring some food over. .”
Lu Xinghe's indifferent eyes glanced at the food box in Aji's hand, with an unknown emotion in his expression.
"I'm not hungry, you can eat."
Aji was stunned.
"Master, are you homesick?"
Hearing this, Lu Xinghe retracted his thoughts.
Recalling the little girl at home, a hint of warmth finally came out of my cold heart in a foreign land.
"Should your family have received the letter I asked you to deliver to the inn?"
"I sent it to the inn at the beginning of the month. According to the distance from the capital to my home, I should have received it long ago." Aji hurriedly replied.
Lu Xinghe hummed, suppressing his emotions deep in his heart.
"There is no need to send letters home for a while."
Aji raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Why? But because..."
Lu Xinghe raised his hand, "Now that Yueyue's business is protected by several big shots in the capital, over time, if the interests involved are huge, others will have to think twice before touching her even if they want to."
"But now that some clues have been uncovered about my father's matter..." Lu Xinghe's eyes were filled with helplessness, "Now I have to pretend to be dumb and stay dormant in the capital to investigate and plan secretly. The longer my relationship with her, the longer The better to expose me, so as not to cause trouble and my enemies to take advantage of my weakness."
Lu Xinghe raised his eyes and looked at Aji.
"Aji, I know you are a stable person. Now you and I are both prosperous and devastated. Do you understand what should be said and what should not be said in the future?"
Aji looked cautious and bowed to Lu Xinghe seriously.
"Aggie understands!"
…
Nanping Town.
On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, the medical clinic, shop and workshop opened at the same time. Chu Yue prepared a red wedding bag for everyone, which was regarded as a new year benefit.
Everyone got red wedding bags, and everyone smiled from ear to ear.
Due to the expansion of the workshop, the number of people has also increased a lot, and Lu Shanshan was also among the crowd.
Chu Yue didn't notice it before.
Seeing that Chu Yue had discovered Lu Shanshan, Lu Dagui touched his head in embarrassment.
"Daughter-in-law of Xinghe, Lu Shanshan promised me before she came here that she will do her duty in the future. How about we keep her for a while and try? If it doesn't work, I will let her go back."
He spent the Chinese New Year in Banpo Village. Although he was separated very early, his parents were still there after all.
After the New Year, Lu Shanshan came to him and begged him to find a job for her in the town so that she could earn some money to support her mother and daughter.
Lu Dagui thought that the workshop was short of people, so he brought her to the workshop and made a three-part agreement with her. If she was still as good as before, he would send her back.
Lu Shanshan agreed at that time.
Chu Yue nodded slightly.
"Then let's do it first."
I heard that Li Zheng spent some money to bring Lu Shanshan's daughter from the Yao family to Banpo Village. From then on, the daughter had nothing to do with the Yao family and changed her mother's surname to the same surname as Lu Shanshan.
She was a divorced woman with a child at home, no source of income, and her life must have been difficult.
After all, she is a person who knows her roots well. It would be okay if she could work for her in a down-to-earth manner. With Lu Dagui watching over her, there won't be any big problems.
If it doesn't work, just send him away.
This time, Chu Yue also discovered a phenomenon.
There was something wrong between Jiang You and Aunt Fang. Jiang You actually gave the red wedding bag he got to Aunt Fang!
This discovery aroused Chu Yue's strong curiosity.
After asking Zhang Qiuying carefully, he found out that the two were similar in age and had developed a good impression of each other after spending more time together in the workshop. Just two days ago, after the two invited Aunt Fang's son and daughter-in-law to have a meal, they started talking to each other. Went to live together.
After hearing the news, Chu Yue smiled and was very happy for them.
If Aunt Fang has a man's support in the future, her eldest daughter-in-law will no longer bully her at will.
I don't know if it is because of the nourishment of men, but Aunt Fang's face is getting younger now.
"Sister Qiuying, I'm afraid we will have to increase production this year. You can make arrangements in advance, including raw materials, labor and space for snacks."
Zhang Qiuying unconsciously caressed her still flat belly.
"Don't worry, Doctor Chu. I will take this matter to heart. The space we have here is enough for the time being. We just need to recruit more workers."
Chu Yue glanced at her belly. She was three months pregnant, and the thick clothes she wore in the winter did not show her pregnancy at all.
"Have you been able to bear it the past few days?"
With a gentle smile on Zhang Qiuying's face, she looked down at her belly.
"This child is good, doesn't make trouble, and feels fine now. Doctor Chu, don't worry. I have also trained helpers in the workshop according to Doctor Chu's wishes. If the body cannot bear it, I will arrange the things at hand first and let the specialized people take charge. of."
Chu Yue nodded.
"Sure, look at it, I'll leave you and Brother Dagui to worry about the workshop and goods distribution."
Zhang Qiuying smiled and said, "No matter whether it's troublesome or not, that's what we should do."
At least he has such a group of reliable people around him, otherwise Chu Yue would really be too busy.
After coming out of here, Chu Yue went to the medical clinic.
There were always many patients in the hospital. Even if they were on vacation a few days ago, she, Dr. Zhu and Lu Yufang would take turns to be on duty here.
Today, on the eighth day of the lunar month, I learned that the medical clinic was open, and the number of patients increased.
Not only were Dr. Zhu and Lu Yufang so busy that they didn't even have time to raise their heads, the servants who were coming and going to take care of the patients, boiling and delivering medicines were also extremely busy.
Fortunately, the medical center is big enough, otherwise so many people would be unable to stand.
After taking a few days off, Wang Shun once again stood behind the counter to collect money and medicine. He seemed a little cautious, fearing that he would make a mistake by mistake.
He looked up and saw Chu Yue standing at the door and hurriedly greeted her.
"Doctor Chu, are you back?"
Chu Yue smiled and entered the hospital.
"Thank you everyone."
Hearing that the person coming was Chu Yue, a group of people hurriedly gathered around.
"Doctor Chu, please help me find out what's wrong with me."
"Doctor Chu, and I, too. I'm not feeling well either."
"Don't grab it, Doctor Chu. Show it to me first. I'm really going to die soon."
"Nonsense, you are the most crowded, how can it not be possible?"
As a result, the man who said no just now actually fell down in the crowd, causing everyone to panic and quickly distance themselves from him.
"This man is so shameless. He actually wants to pretend to be stunned and blackmail us. Doctor Chu, you have to testify for us that we didn't do anything."
"Yes, Doctor Chu, we didn't do anything."
