Chapter 295: 291. Mr. Xiao Mu
Life in Ligou Village is very leisurely and also very comfortable.
At the very least, staying here, Zhang Ran feels his whole person has relaxed, especially since he can see the smiling faces of the two little ones every day.
Ever since he returned, Zhang Ran has not actually been truly relaxed; he only looked relaxed.
He Yong knows this best, so seeing Zhang Ran as he is now, he also feels genuinely happy.
Zhang Ran is relaxed and content over here in Ligou Village, but it is not like that over at Tianjiashan.
As time slowly passes, news regarding the medicinal herbs of their Tianjiashan has begun to spread.
Especially since some people already know this is all Zhang Ran's handiwork, a trace of panic has also welled up in their hearts.
However, Miao Lao still has some prestige here, and Mr. Xiao Mu is coming soon, so everyone also wants to see if this Mr. Xiao Mu can become their second benefactor and let their Tianjiashan Village achieve another takeoff.
Therefore, the village is still able to suppress some other voices.
Just as they were waiting with bated breath, this Mr. Xiao Mu finally arrived, which made many people heave a sigh of relief.
On this day, Miao Lao led some people to stand at the entrance of the village to welcome this long-awaited Mr. Xiao Mu.
Mu Yuan looked at the scenery outside the window, his face devoid of any expression.
If it weren't for his father insisting that he come here, he would never have wanted to come to this place even if he died; it is just a small mountain village, and he has absolutely no interest in it.
But this is the first time his father has given him a task so seriously and earnestly, so no matter what, Mu Yuan needs to do his best to handle it well.
Actually, there is nothing to it; it is just to see if the Miao doctor here really has any true skill, and if so, he needs to befriend him and can offer some benefits when necessary.
Furthermore, if this Miao doctor really has skill, then he should let him take a look at Mu Yuan's body.
Even if nothing is detected, he should still befriend him as planned.
At the time, Mu Yuan asked his father, and his father only said one thing: "Buy horse bones with a thousand gold."
In fact, Mu Yuan has never known what is wrong with his body; they also check their health often, but it has always been fine.
However, Mu Yuan also knows one thing, and that is that their Mu Family is indeed somewhat lacking in offspring in his generation.
His father only has him as a son, his aunt only has one daughter, and his uncle only managed to give birth to a boy in the last two years.
So, by his generation, there are only these three.
And ever since he learned to indulge in debauchery, he received some subtle hints from his father, which were to not use any contraceptive measures, and at the same time, once he discovers someone is pregnant with his child, to bring them straight home.
Although Mu Yuan was unwilling, he could only accept it, but the final result was that over these past few years, not a single girl he was with became pregnant.
After getting out of the car, Mu Yuan saw the entrance that had been cleaned thoroughly, and even the flowers and plants at the village entrance had been trimmed by someone, looking quite decent.
"Mr. Mu, welcome, welcome." Miao Lao had already learned from Xiaoyuan that this Mr. Xiao Mu had some mysophobia, so he did not reach out to shake hands.
Looking at the respectful Miao Lao, Mu Yuan smiled and said, "You must be Miao Lao, I will be troubling you from now on."
A standard, kind smile appeared on Miao Lao's face again as he said, "Mr. Mu is too polite; these are all things we should do. It is our honor that you could come to visit our Tianjiashan Village."
"Please, come in." Saying this, Miao Lao reached out to lead the way.
Mu Yuan first exchanged some pleasantries with Miao Lao, then took the lead and walked inside.
He, Mu Yuan, is not lacking in the necessary superficial courtesies.
The lunch was also very sumptuous, and the dishes looked no different from those made by a hotel chef; although Mu Yuan didn't feel they were particularly delicious, they were close enough.
After finishing lunch and moving around a little, Mu Yuan spoke up: "I wonder where Doctor Gu is now? Can you take me to visit Doctor Gu first?"
"Of course, please this way." Miao Lao also knew Mu Yuan's purpose this time, so he said immediately upon hearing this.
Shanghai, Zhang Family.
Zhang Sicheng saw Liu Lu, who was somewhat distracted, and asked worriedly, "Wife, are you feeling unwell lately?"
Hearing this, Liu Lu came to her senses, looked at Zhang Sicheng's concerned eyes, and smiled reluctantly: "It's nothing, I was just thinking about some things."
"Are you missing Xiaotao and Susu?" Zhang Sicheng asked with a smile.
Liu Lu looked at him, nodded, and said, "I am indeed missing the two little ones a bit."
"If you miss them, you should go over and see them; it would be a good chance to relax. I see you haven't had much energy lately," Zhang Sicheng said.
Liu Lu was silent for a moment after hearing this, then suddenly said, "Do you want me to leave?"
Zhang Sicheng was a bit confused by her question and said puzzledly, "No, if you leave, I'll only be able to eat takeout every day. But if you miss Taotao, you can go see them."
Liu Lu looked at him seriously for a while, then lowered her head to eat. After being silent for another moment, Liu Lu said, "Alright, then I'll go over and see them tomorrow."
"But be careful on the road. Why don't you let Siyan go with you? I'm a bit worried about you going alone," Zhang Sicheng said with concern.
Liu Lu shook her head and said, "No need, Siyan has things to do too, and I'm a grown adult, it'll be fine."
"Alright then, but keep your phone on, and call me anytime if you run into any problems," Zhang Sicheng said.
Recently, Biaoxue Company has also been very busy; the development of the new game and the future cooperation with Weiteng both require Zhang Sicheng to participate personally.
Especially the cooperation, much of which he had not participated in before, requires a great deal of his energy.
Although he also sensed that something was a bit off with Liu Lu, there were simply too many things, making him too busy to cope.
This time, he also let Liu Lu go play by herself to relax.
Zhang Sicheng also planned to accompany Liu Lu properly after this busy period was over.
After finishing the meal, Liu Lu sat on the bed, looking at a photo on her phone, lost in thought for a moment.
The photo on the phone was clearly a picture of Zhang Sicheng with a woman; judging from the angle of the photo, this woman seemed very intimate with Zhang Sicheng.
The most critical thing was that Liu Lu recognized who this woman was; back then, Zhang Sicheng had done foolish things because of this woman.
When Liu Lu comforted Zhang Sicheng back then, she had also seen their photos. Although there had been some changes over the years, Liu Lu still remembered the appearance of Lu Xin and matched it up.
The next morning, Liu Lu finished cooking and packed her things a little, preparing to go find Zhang Xiaotao and the others.
