Shen Ruyue said in surprise, “Qingzhi, 1 think it’s amazing that they haven’t withered after so long.”

Chu Qingzhi’s eyes curved. “They represent Jinghong’s love for me. Of course, they won’t wither.”

Shen Ruyue pulled Chu Qingzhi to sit on the bed and gossiped. “Qingzhi, how are you getting along with Jinghong?”

Thinking of the person she liked, Chu Qingzhi couldn’t help but blush. “Jinghong has taken good care of me all the way and treats me especially well. Be it his looks or his behavior, he’s my ideal fiance.”

Shen Ruyue was happy for Chu Qingzhi. “That’s good. Brother Jinghong looks like an extremely reliable man. Qingzhi, you’re really lucky.”

“My luck is indeed not bad.” Chu Qingzhi also gossiped. “What about you and Eldest Brother? Have you made any progress?”

Shen Ruyue smiled shyly. “A little, but not a lot. However, Xuhua treats me very well.”

Chu Qingzhi put in a good word for her brother. “Brother has an inferiority complex. Give him some time. Brother is loyal. He will treat you well.”

Shen Ruyue nodded shyly. “Yes.” Then, she said, “Qingzhi, let me show you the account book.”

Chu Qingzhi sat cross-legged on the bed. “Okay.”

Shen Ruyue got up and brought the account book over. “Qingzhi, take your time. 1’11 go outside to teach everyone. During this period of time, everyone has made a lot of progress. They can read a little on their own.”

Chu Qingzhi said, “This is a good thing. Ruyue, give them an exam paper or something another day to see how well they can perform.”

Shen Ruyue agreed readily. “Alright, 1’11 plan after class.”

“Okay.”

Chu Qingzhi opened the account book and flipped to the end. She was too tired and did not want to look at it carefully.

This month, the ice cream bars brought in a profit of 3,480 taels. After deducting the cost of 1,300 taels and the salary of 350 taels, the net profit was 1,830 taels.

The rice dumplings brought in a profit of 2,750 taels. The cost was 1,320 taels, and the net profit was 1,430 taels.

The family had built an ice cream bar and rice dumpling workshop, so they spent a total of 500 taels.

During this period of time, the family had spent 60 taels.

There was also the money spent on building the new house. So far, it cost 500 taels.

As of now, the family had a total of 5,200 taels of silver.

Chu Qingzhi looked at the amount and smiled. This profit was quite considerable.

On the original wasteland, an ancient-style bungalow had already been built to the second floor and the workers were preparing to put on beams and tiles. In about a month, the house would be complete.

There was also an ancient-style bungalow in the original sorghum field beside it, but it had just started. It would take a long time to be built.

Chu Qingzhi looked at her house first before going to her workshop.

The workshop was built according to the design she had drawn. It was built at the back of their current house.

The workshop was built like a factory, but the layout inside was very clear.

In the ice cream bar workshop, there was a water-boiling area, a sugar-melting area, a cooling area, a modeling area, a freezing area, and a packaging area. Behind it was the warehouse.

Chu Qingzhi walked around the workshop and was very satisfied. Then, she went to the rice dumpling workshop opposite.

The two workshops were very close, but they were separated. There was a two-meter aisle in the middle.

Chu Qingzhi crossed the aisle and walked to the other side. The rice dumpling workshop was divided into the ingredient preparation area, the ingredient distribution area, the wrapping area, and the cooking area.

The cooking area was separated and was in the house next door.

5,000 rice dumplings were needed every day, so they bought special iron pots. This kind of pot could cook 250 rice dumplings at once. There were 20 pots in the workshop, looking very spectacular.

Chu Qingzhi looked at the workshop and wondered if she should sell the rice dumplings to the other two county cities. In any case, she had already started the rice dumpling business.

Chu Xuhua walked over. “Fifth Sister.”

Chu Qingzhi turned around and smiled. “Eldest Brother.”

Chu Xuhua walked towards Chu Qingzhi. “What do you think of this workshop? If you’re not satisfied, we can make changes.”

“No, I think it’s quite good.” Chu Qingzhi thought for a while and said, “Brother, have you thought of selling the rice dumplings to the other two county cities?”

Chu Xuhua could not help but be excited. “Qingzhi, I’ve long had this thought. 1 was going to ask you for your opinion.”

“1 have no objections,” Chu Qingzhi encouraged. “Brother, if you have any ideas you want to implement, you can do it without asking me. 1’11 support you.”

Chu Xuhua’s eyes shone brightly. “Then 1’11 bring the rice dumplings and go to the other two county cities to seek clients.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and nodded. “Brother, 1 wish you success.”

“Yes.” Chu Xuhua was overcome with excitement.

At the dining table during breakfast.

“Master, did you invent the rice dumplings?” Yuan Hongjun ate three rice dumplings at once.

Chu Qingzhi ate the rice dumpling elegantly. “Yes, do you like it?”

Yuan Hongjun nodded. The young man’s eyes were sparkling. “1 like it. Can 1 learn it?”

Chu Qingzhi pointed in the direction of the workshop. “Sure, you can go to the workshop to learn. There’s a full process there.”

Yuan Hongjun said expectantly, “Alright, 1’11 go in a while.”

Bao Linjiang could not help but complain, “You’re really a model of hardworking and studious. Even ants aren’t as diligent as you.”

Yuan Hongjun glanced at Bao Linjiang. “Little Abalone, no one will think that you’re mute if you don’t speak.”

Bao Linjiang rolled his eyes and clicked his tongue.

Chu Qingzhi put down her chopsticks and looked at the two of them. “By the way, I have a mission for you.”

The two of them were very curious about their master’s first mission. “Master, tell me.”

Chu Qingzhi reached out and patted Chu Qingning’s shoulder. “This is my fourth sister, Chu Qingning. She’s very interested in medicine, but I’m too busy to teach her. Can you help me teach her?”

Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang shifted their gazes to Chu Qingning. After sizing her up for a while, the two young men said in unison, “Master, no problem.”

Chu Qingzhi whispered into Chu Qingning’s ear, “These two young men have very good medical skills. One of them is even a little Divine Doctor. Learn the basics from them first. If you have any questions, ask them. If you’re too embarrassed to ask, ask me. Fourth Sister, what do you think?”

Chu Qingning treated the two young men as her younger brothers, so she agreed without hesitation. “Okay.”

Chu Qingzhi encouraged, “Fourth Sister, you’re talented. You can definitely learn well. You have to believe in yourself.”

Chu Qingning nodded. “1 will.”

Something big happened in the Chu Village again…

The county magistrate brought a group of constables and Tang Jinghong to the

Chu Village..
