Chapter 79 What strength do you have?

When Sheng Wanqiu finally paid the balance, Shi the carpenter took ten taels of silver less from her. Fearing that Sheng Wanqiu would return the money to him, he quickly ran away with his workers.

"Huai Mu, you take Xiao Jin home and look after him. Your brother and I will go back and move our things. We will live in the new house tonight."

"Okay! I promise to keep my brother from running around!" Sheng Huaimu was so happy at the thought of sleeping in a new bed tonight that his nose was about to burst.

"Sister, I'll go help too. I have the strength!" Sheng Huaijin quickly stretched out his little arms. He had been eating well recently, and his little face had started to gain weight.

"How can you have the strength? You have such weak arms and legs. Go and play somewhere else and don't delay our work!" Mrs. Sheng carried the two troublesome children aside, one in each hand.

The donkey cart went back and forth four times. Mrs. Sheng was reluctant to leave behind many of the small things, so she moved them all over.

If Sheng Wanqiu hadn't said that the Jiang family father and son would come to stay tomorrow, her grandmother would have dismantled the bed and brought it back to use as firewood.

After a few people had decorated the house, Sheng Wanqiu was so tired that she collapsed on the rattan chair, her head buzzing.

"Grandma! I want to buy two little maids!"

"One serves you, and the other serves me. I also want to try what it feels like to be served by someone."

Mrs. Sheng, who was also slumped in a rattan chair, stood up with a somersault, rushed to Sheng Wanqiu and grabbed her ears with her hands.

"You're rich now, right? You know how to exploit people, you have too much money to burn, right?"

"You are in good health, do you need someone to serve you? I, an old woman, will serve you first!"

"Milk! It hurts! It hurts! It hurts!"

Of course, Sheng Wanqiu would not just sit there and let her grandmother pull her ears. She reached into her armpits, but Grandma Sheng was ticklish and immediately retracted her hand. She took the opportunity to run away.

"Stop right there, you little bastard! Take this punch from me!"

Mrs. Sheng followed behind and chased out. The new yard was big enough, so the grandmother and grandson started chasing each other in the yard.

"Grandma, I'm not trying to exploit others, I'm trying to save them!"

"At least in my home, we don't beat or scold them, and we provide them with enough food and warm clothes. If they were sold somewhere else, it would be terrible!"

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I am doing a good deed! This is not exploitation!"

Sheng Wanqiu kept talking nonsense while running. She was just lazy and didn't want to work. Is that okay?

Her reaction was too big, her ears were almost pulled off!
What she didn't know was that when Mrs. Sheng was young, she had a very good little sister, who was sold to another family as a maid by her parents and was eventually beaten to death. She saw the little sister who always smiled and talked to her lying on a straw mat with bruises all over her body, and she would never smile at her again.

She secretly swore that no matter whether her life was good or bad in the future, she would never sell her children to other families as maids or servants, nor would she be the kind of person who exploited others.

Mrs. Sheng stopped and fell into deep thought!
Yes! If my sister had met a good boss, this wouldn't have happened.

No matter who comes to their house to help, Wanqiu and I will never think of exploiting or abusing them. This is certain.

"Humph! Then take me with you tomorrow! I can choose it myself!"

Mrs. Sheng raised her head, rolled her eyes at Sheng Wanqiu proudly, and went back to the house with her big butt twisted!
"Brother, why are you here? Are you okay?" When Lu Yu saw his elder brother jumped out of the carriage so swiftly, his eyes instantly widened like copper bells.

What's going on? Is this still the big brother who can lift things with his hands but not with his shoulders? What did he miss? Did Dr. Ding develop a new drug?

Lingyi was also shocked. Was this his delicate eldest son? Why was he so mysterious? Wasn't he usually helped out of the carriage?
Why did he jump down so suddenly today? Is his eyesight clear?

Lu Li also saw his second brother, and looked at him as if he had seen a ghost. He suppressed the corners of his mouth that could not help but curl up, gave him a cold look, and walked straight into Songhe Restaurant.

Lu Yu hurried to catch up. He wanted to find out what was going on. He hadn't seen his elder brother for a long time. He followed Lu Li into the restaurant obediently.

He did not forget to wink at Jiang Ping, but the old man Jiang Ping also looked confused, as if he didn't know the inside story either.

It is true that Jiang Ping did not know about this. He had been busy all day, arranging his men to work, carrying the black bear, and watching the fight. He had no time to observe the physical condition of his master.

Thinking about it carefully, when he went to Qingshan Village, he heard his master coughing while sitting outside the carriage, but he did not hear his master coughing on the way back.

Lu Li was also frightened when he jumped off the carriage just now, fearing that his master would faint in the next second.

"Where's Black Bear? Take me to see it!" Lu Li entered the restaurant and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have asked Jiang Ping on the way back why Black Bear didn't come back with him. Jiang Ping's answer was that Black Bear had been transported back in advance.

This old guy is quite meticulous in his work. He even knew to avoid being seen. He was afraid that such a big black bear would bring unnecessary trouble to Sheng Wanqiu. He did a good job. I will give him a raise in his monthly salary this month!

"Brother, what black bear?" Lu Yu was confused.

He was on official business this time and passed by Sishui Town, so he thought of asking Doctor Ding for help, as he hadn't received any good medicine recently. He spent money to send it to his elder brother, but was turned away.

Then we turned around and came to Songhe Restaurant, but Jiang Ping was not there. The waiter said that he had gone to the countryside to prepare a banquet. Since when did Songhe Restaurant start this business?

Just as he was about to leave, he saw the restaurant's carriage coming back at the door. Just as he was about to talk to Jiang Ping who was sitting outside the carriage, he saw his eldest brother lift the curtain and jump out of the carriage.

"Why are you talking so much? Don't you have anything to do?"

Lu Yu touched his nose, feeling a little embarrassed. Why was his elder brother always so cold to him? Oh!

"Where's my bear gall? Take me to see it!"

At this time, Ding Dali also drove his fancy carriage to the door of the restaurant and ran in excitedly from outside, shouting.

"It's in the backyard! Wanqiu said she was giving it to you, how could I possibly take it away?"

Jiang Ping looked at Ding Dali, who was impatient, with great disdain. He didn't look like a miracle doctor at all, but just a greedy old man!

Several people ran straight to the backyard of the restaurant. Ding Dali ran the fastest, for fear that if he ran too slowly, the black bear gall would fly away.

"Wow!"

"Wow! It's so big!"

When Ding Dali arrived first, he saw a huge black bear at least three meters tall lying on the ground in the backyard.
