The hot sun was so hot that no one dared to walk on the street in the afternoon. More than two months of high temperatures and no rain gradually plunged this peaceful town into panic. The increasingly expensive food prices in the rice shop made it even more frustrating.
Many people began to accuse the boss of being evil-hearted.
When Lu Ziwan and Lian Guanlang woke up in the lounge in the back hall, it was the time when Xia Yang was charming. They were walking on the street to the puppet shop under the scorching sun. Lian Guanlang kept fanning Lu Ziwan and pulled her
She walked quickly.
"Brother Guan Lang, look at the situation. There is going to be a drought this year. The wheat seedlings planted in our village have to be watered by everyone. In the fields far away from the river, the wheat has dried up." Lu Ziyuan sighed.
He took a breath and said, "Fortunately, I listened to my mother and bought food supplies. Now the rice is also horribly expensive."
"The water in the river has dropped a lot. Looking at the situation, if it doesn't rain for a month, the smaller river will definitely dry up and expose the sand and gravel underneath, and the larger river may still have some water left.
"We have food but no water, so that won't work." Lian Guanlang nodded, "Hurry up and enter the shop, it's really sunny outside."
"Madam! Master! Sit down quickly. It's so hot. Why don't you come here later?" Da Zhuang was drowsy in the shop. It's hot today, and people will easily get sleepy when exposed to the sun.
"It's okay. You and Lin Tusheng took turns taking a nap in the store when no one was around. It's hot today, so the business in the store is gradually getting worse, right?" Lu Ziwan asked.
"Isn't it getting worse? Madam, it's hot today. Who is going to go shopping? No one is shopping. Even if we sell new goods, no one knows about it. Moreover, it's hot today. People feel like holding this stuffed doll.
It's hotter." Da Zhuang then echoed. He was worried about his boss as the business of his shop had been bleak recently.
"It's okay, I will make other things after the goods are shipped out of the factory." Lu Ziyuan smiled.
The shopkeeper of the restaurant next door probably heard the waiter say that Lu Ziwan was here, so he waved his sleeves and came to Lu Ziwan's shop with a sad look on his face.
"Miss Lu, I haven't seen you for a few days."
"There is something going on at home. Your boss's eldest daughter is getting married today. I will come to town to marry her in the morning." Lu Ziyuan smiled.
"Miss Lu, don't be so modest! The people in the town were talking about you again early this morning. I also heard that our boss, Mr. Sun, was already exhausted, but it was you who saved him.
Come back, I heard that the midwives from the White House all said that you are amazing, and that the child would have died if he had not been lucky enough to meet you." When people are bored, they are most excited to talk about gossip. The shopkeeper of the restaurant
She curiously asked Lu Ziyuan, "How did you save the baby yesterday? I heard the midwife said that if it weren't for you, the baby might have died in Aunt Luping's belly and wouldn't have been born."
Lu Ziyuan shook her head, "Who can be ashamed? As a doctor, I can't do anything to save Lu Ping. Oh, by the way, Lu Ping was raised as a wife, didn't you know?"
"Oh! You are quick to speak, and you can speak smoothly in a moment. When it comes to this matter, this is also your credit, right? Let me tell you, Mrs. Luping is a good person, and she is also very kind to our servants. Alas, it is a pity that this fate
But this is it." The restaurant owner shook his head and sighed.
Lu Ziwan just curled her lips and smiled but did not answer. She was thinking in her heart, why did the midwife hired by the Bai family spread everything to others? This sensible person said that she was kind-hearted and cared about the child. This did not make sense.
People would say she is nosy.
"How's the business in the store lately?" Lu Ziwan changed the topic and looked at the shopkeeper's face when he first came in. I guess he wanted to complain to her, right?
Sure enough, when he mentioned the business of the store, the shopkeeper immediately changed his face to the one who came in at the beginning, and sighed, "Everything is expensive in this town. Many farmers' vegetables are dry without water. The price of everything is so high."
We have to raise the cost because our capital is high, so the cost of food will naturally have to be raised. As a result, everyone thinks it is too expensive and stops coming!"
