Chapter 151 The Old Madam Sends a Maid
The county magistrate smiled and said to Lin Feng:
"Lin Feng, you've done a good job as village chief."
It seems that appointing you as the judge was the right decision.
Lin Feng quickly cupped his hands in a respectful bow and said humbly:
"You flatter me, sir. It's all thanks to your excellent leadership."
"This humble official will certainly do his utmost to serve the people."
The magistrate nodded in satisfaction and then said:
"Now that the village is under your management,"
With favorable weather and abundant harvests, the people live in peace and contentment.
This is truly a blessing for our county.
but,
This medical knowledge should not only be learned by the villagers of Linjia Village.
As a person of reason,
You need to find a way to extend this to all the villages you manage.
This is a matter of great importance concerning the well-being of the people.
This must not be overlooked.
Lin Feng straightened his expression and replied:
"Rest assured, my lord, I understand the importance of this matter."
I will definitely plan carefully after I get back.
Develop a feasible plan.
This will benefit villagers in other villages as well.
The magistrate nodded slightly:
"Yes, Lin Feng, this county believes in your abilities."
However, this matter needs to be handled promptly and cannot be delayed.
Lin Feng solemnly promises:
"Your humble servant will certainly not fail in his mission."
Complete the tasks assigned by the adults as soon as possible.
The county magistrate patted Lin Feng on the shoulder:
"Alright, then the county will be waiting for your good news."
After the magistrate left,
Lin Feng then quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Muttering to himself:
"Oh my god, that scared me to death!"
Looks like I'll be quite busy from now on.
No, we have to wait until the magistrate returns.
I went to Qingqing for help.
The village chief thought of Lu Qingqing,
I immediately felt less stressed.
He was thinking to himself:
"Qingqing is a smart girl, not to mention..."
She is also the magistrate's adopted sister.
She also taught him medicine.
She must have a way to help herself.
Afterwards, the village chief happily went home as well.
I just finished lunch.
Someone came from the county government office looking for Li Xiuming.
They said there was something at the county government office that required the adults to return and handle.
The old lady held Lu Qingqing's hand reluctantly and said:
"Daughter, your mother is going back with your brother."
Once the family reunion banquet is arranged,
I'll have someone notify you in advance to go over there.
And Chunlan and the other three.
Your mother left them behind to take care of you.
You must remember to visit your mother often in the future.
The old lady turned to look at Chunlan and the other three.
He solemnly instructed:
"Spring orchids, summer lotus, autumn chrysanthemums, winter plum blossoms,"
You four must serve the young lady well.
There must be no negligence whatsoever.
If I find out that Miss has been wronged,
I will not let this go easily.
The four quickly bowed and responded:
"Don't worry, Madam."
We will certainly do our best to serve Miss well.
Lu Qingqing's eyes were filled with reluctance as she softly said:
"Mother, don't worry, Qingqing will remember it."
Please take good care of yourself and your brother when you return.
The old lady nodded, looking at her with affection:
"Good child, your mother knows you are thoughtful."
If there's anything, send someone to the county government office to find us.
Lu Qingqing obediently replied:
"Yes, Mother."
At this moment, Li Xiuming walked over.
He said without any hesitation:
"Qingqing, you've taught me medical knowledge quite well."
Could you take advantage of your free time?
Write one down and give it to your elder brother.
You don't know, I've heard you lecture.
My elder brother also became interested in this medical knowledge.
I want to learn more.
Lu Qingqing smiled and said:
"Please rest assured, brother, you are free to attend to your official duties."
I'll organize this information when I have time.
I will definitely hand it over to my elder brother when the time comes.
Upon hearing this, Li Xiuming's lips curled up, and he thought to himself:
It's still better to have a younger sister.
The old lady and Li Xiuming then got into the carriage.
They slowly departed.
Lu Qingqing watched the carriage disappear into the distance.
My heart is filled with warmth and emotion.
Lin Yunlan smiled and said to Lu Qingqing:
"Thanks to you, Qingqing"
I got a half-day off.
I don't need to go to the yamen for duty today.
Lu Qingqing said with a smile:
Congratulations!
Then you should go and help your second brother and the others build their house.
As he spoke, he smiled and went into the house with the others.
Lin Yunlan watched Lu Qingqing's retreating figure.
He shook his head helplessly and muttered to himself:
"When did this girl learn to be naughty?"
However, despite saying that,
I continued walking in the direction where my second brother's house was being built.
Lu Qingqing looked at Chunlan and the others.
He said somewhat embarrassedly:
Spring orchids, summer lotus, autumn chrysanthemums, winter plum blossoms
I'm so sorry.
My mother did it because she felt sorry for me.
So we left you here.
"I want you to leave the city and stay with me in this village."
Chunlan quickly replied with a smile:
"Miss, please don't say that."
It is our honor to serve you.
Xia He nodded in agreement:
"Yes, miss, the scenery here is beautiful."
That's good too.
Qiuju then continued:
"And the servants also like you, Miss."
As long as I'm by your side, it doesn't matter where we are.
Dongmei concluded by saying:
"Miss, please don't stand on ceremony with us."
"You treat us servants well, and we are all willing to follow you."
Lu Qingqing looked at them with emotion:
"Then I'll have to trouble you sisters from now on."
Chunlan quickly said:
"Miss, you flatter me."
This is what we should do.
Xia He also smiled and chimed in:
"Miss, you're too kind."
It is our honor to work under your guidance.
Qiu Ju looked sincere:
"Miss, please don't worry."
Our servants will certainly serve you with all their might.
Winter plum gently bows:
"Miss, we're here whenever you need us."
Lu Qingqing heard them calling her "Miss" repeatedly.
They kept calling them "servants."
Suddenly I felt completely overwhelmed.
She immediately said:
Spring orchids, summer lotus, autumn chrysanthemums, and winter plum blossoms.
From today onwards, you are not allowed to call me "Miss" anymore.
You can call me sister.
You can also call me by my name, Qingqing.
And also, in front of me from now on...
You don't need to refer to yourselves as servants or anything like that.
You can be more casual.
Treat this place like your own home.
We don't have that many rules.
Chunlan and the other three looked at each other, somewhat hesitant.
Chunlan said cautiously:
"This...isn't that a bit inappropriate, Miss? We can't break the rules."
Lu Qingqing frowned, feigning anger:
"If I say it's okay, then it's okay. Why are there so many rules?"
"It's settled then."
Seeing this, Chunlan cautiously said:
"Well...well...okay, miss."
...Oh no, sister,
How about this, would that work?
From now on, in private, we'll all call you "sister."
But once outside...
We still need to abide by the rules.
We can't let people laugh at us for not following the rules.
Sister, what do you think?
Lu Qingqing said with a smile:
"Okay, then let's do it this way from now on."
We're sisters in private.
"On important occasions, we'll just go through the motions."
Chunlan and the others were very happy.
Although the young lady lived in the village,
But the young lady has a good personality and is kind.
He was very kind to them.
They felt that following the young lady was easier than staying in the mansion.
Lu Qingqing smiled and said playfully:
"Come on, come on, all of you call me 'sister' so I can hear it."
Chunlan was a little embarrassed,
But she still called out sweetly, "Sister."
Xia He quickly followed up with, "Sister."
Qiuju was very happy and called out in a clear voice, "Sister."
Dongmei obediently called out, "Sister."
Lu Qingqing laughed even more happily and said:
"Good boy/girl, look how nice this is."
Chunlan and the others were finally completely relieved.
Xia He said:
"elder sister,
"Let's go tidy up the room first."
Lu Qingqing replied:
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Chunlan said with a smile:
"Sister, a few of us can go."
You must have worked hard lecturing this morning, please take a rest.
Lu Qingqing didn't press the matter, and simply replied with a smile:
"Alright then, thank you for your hard work, little sisters."
Everyone then began to work enthusiastically.
In an instant, the room was filled with a warm atmosphere.
