Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

Liu Ruyun said with a smile, "In April, I gained a lot from this trip. I met all kinds of people and saw how others handled unexpected events."

You have no idea how amazing Qingling is; she knows how the restaurant owners and waiters greet and interact with customers. She made those who looked down on us turn green with envy.

You don't know until you go out and see for yourself how vast the world is. We stayed in town for two days, browsed the shops, but didn't eat at the restaurants. The food was alright, but I felt it wasn't as good as what I cook.

When we arrived in the county town, we realized that the restaurants there were worlds apart from those in the town. After tasting the food and observing the business operations and management of the restaurants in the county town, I realized that I had underestimated the importance of opening a restaurant.

I feel there's still so much to learn and do. Opening a restaurant in town isn't an easy task. The two restaurants in town have terrible food. I want to open a higher-end one so that the town can have a decent restaurant.

I wrote down all the problems I encountered on this trip that I couldn't figure out. Qingling helped me answer some of them, and there are still some I need your guidance on.

I'm preparing to renovate the restaurant these past few days. I've looked at the layouts of other restaurants in the county, and I have a rough idea in mind. I'll draw it out later, and then you can take a look in April.

"No problem, you can come to me anytime. As long as my cousin has the idea and works hard for it, I believe she will succeed."

"While we're renovating the shop, we also need to find a chef. Right now it's just me and Xiangqin. If I have something to do, Xiangqin alone simply can't handle it."

"Initially, you must find a reliable person. I can transfer someone from the county to help you temporarily, which can solve your immediate problem. You should also find someone in time."

"Qingling, for the time being, you'll assist your cousin with the restaurant's affairs."

Ru Yu, who was standing to the side, said with a smile, "Big sister, if you don't have enough money, I can lend you mine first, and you can pay me back with interest later."

If you can't find a suitable accountant, I can reluctantly become your accountant, but you'll have to be paid; I won't work for free.

"Alright, alright, I won't let you do this for nothing."

"Cousin, did you see Ruxue in the county town?"

"Ru Xue went to the prefectural city with Madam Xu and hasn't returned yet. This girl has been gone for two months without sending a single word. Could it be that she's become too restless outside and doesn't want to come back?"

"Yes, Ruxue has been gone for so long, Mother misses her very much."

"Don't worry about Ruxue anymore. She has lofty ambitions and is destined to make a lot of money in the future. Let her broaden her horizons and interact with more people. When she starts her own business in the future, she won't suffer big losses and will be able to think more comprehensively when doing things."

"Master, Madam, dinner is ready. Shall we eat now?"

"Let's go eat! It'll be so lively with another person at home." Mrs. Feng was very happy; all the children in the family were around, except for Ru Xue.

On March 26th, the workshop was completed. Liu Siyue paid Master Chang his wages. "Master Chang, you've been working for so long. Everyone hasn't been home for a long time. You must miss your families and be very tired. Let everyone go home to see their families first, so you can feel at ease and get some rest."

"How about we officially start work on the first day of April, Master Chang?"

"Alright, thank you for your consideration, Madam Liu. I'll go down to line up now. On behalf of my brothers, I thank you, Madam Liu, for giving us such a stable job."

"Master Chang, you don't need to do this. We're just getting what we need and helping each other."

Next, we'll build houses for the servants, 20 rooms in total. After that, we'll build houses in four other villages. I hope to finish them by the summer harvest so we can hire more people.

"Alright, don't worry, Madam Liu, I will definitely get things done for you. The construction deadlines for the several estates are tight, so I'll arrange for a few master craftsmen to lead the skilled workers to do the work themselves, and then find some laborers. I guarantee we can finish it. These kinds of houses are what we're used to making."

"Well, Master Chang, you can handle it yourself. I trust you to do things. My second uncle's estate will arrange for you and a few skilled workers, and I'll arrange for my own people to handle the laborers."

Let me make this clear first: the people who go to work on my second uncle's estate are people who keep their mouths shut, are honest and upright, and won't talk nonsense.

Master Chang immediately became alert. "Don't worry, Madam Liu, I will definitely choose honest and reliable people who can keep their mouths shut. No matter what they see or hear, they will not spread it."

"Master Chang, there's no need to be so nervous. I haven't done anything illegal or disorderly. I just don't want people to know what I grow, for fear of causing trouble."

"I understand, I understand."

"Then it's settled. Master Chang, hurry up and pay everyone their wages, don't keep them waiting too long."

Master Chang thanked Liu Siyue again and turned to leave.

Lei Yi and the others were idle, so Liu Siyue started to arrange work for them. First, she asked them to move out of the dilapidated houses and live in the workshop. She asked them to demolish all the dilapidated houses. After the houses were demolished, she asked them to turn over the soil. She wanted to plant flowers and dig a shallow fish pond. She also wanted to raise fish and plant lotus flowers in the fish pond.

Lei Yi's men were complaining. Following their master meant nothing but building houses, digging, and moving stones. They didn't want to do any of that; all they wanted was to fight on the battlefield.

"Master, tomorrow is March 28th, that scumbag is getting married, it's time for us to put our plan into action."

"Alright, tomorrow you go to town and find a way to tell Master Zhou and Miss Zhou this news. I'll go find the village chief and take some people to Baini Bay. We'll put on a good show and slap Village Chief Wei in the face. We'll also let the people of Baini Bay know that if they want to cheat Liu Siyue, they won't get away with it, not even a chance."

Let them try to steal a chicken and lose the rice instead!

Lujia Village, Bainiwan.

Lu Yunzhou got up early and dressed in his best clothes. He didn't go to pick up the bride himself, but asked Lu Yunping to do it in his place. He was afraid that he might fall ill on the way and embarrass himself in front of the bride, which would be very embarrassing.

As the elder brother, Lu Yunping couldn't refuse and had to take the blame. The matchmaker also came last night and stayed at the Lu family's house. "Sister, you have to take the 30 taels of silver you saved with you, otherwise you might not be able to get the letter of severance back."

"I know, I've given the money to the boss. Please give him some pointers later."

Lu Yunping and the matchmaker rode in a carriage to pick up the bride. The carriage was decorated with large red "double happiness" characters, and the horse's head was tied with a large red flower, making it very eye-catching along the way.

The carriage traveled quickly on the road. When it arrived at the entrance of Yushu Village, the matchmaker told Lu Yunping to set off firecrackers first and then wait there while she walked to the He family's house.

The sound of firecrackers drew everyone out of the village to watch the spectacle. They saw a horse-drawn carriage parked at the village entrance, adorned with red and colorful decorations. Whose daughter was getting married?

The villagers whispered among themselves, "Do you know which family in the village has a daughter?"

"I don't know, I haven't heard of any girl getting married today. Why don't you go over and ask?"

"Okay, I'll go ask."

A woman approached with a smile, looking at Lu Yunping, "Young man, are you here to pick up the bride?"

"yes!"

"Which family's girl are you here to pick up?"

"The He family."

"Is it the He family, that they're marrying their daughter, He Qinglian?"

"Yes."

"Are you the groom? You don't look like it. Why aren't you wearing any flowers?"

Which village are you from?

Lu Yunping remained silent. Seeing that the man didn't want to talk, the woman quickly went back to tell her sisters, "We found out that they've come to pick up He Da Kui's daughter. We couldn't find out where the groom is from."

"What are you waiting for? Let's hurry over to He Daikui's house and see where those two sold their daughter!"
