Chapter 23 The Villager's Guess
Until Du Zhongshu said goodbye and left, the rest of the Bai family had not recovered. Lin Ping'er looked at Du Zhongshu's back and asked Bai Ruozhu hesitantly: "Ruozhu, do you want to send it off?"

"Regardless of the false etiquette, there will be many opportunities to meet in the future." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile. She touched her belly with one hand and smiled brightly on her face, like...a little fox that had eaten enough and slept well.

Bai Zehao was also in shock. He looked at Bai Ruozhu and asked, "Little sister, Mr. Du really agreed? What does [-]% mean?"

Bai Ruozhu smiled even more proudly, "For example, if the Du's Medical Clinic has a bonus of 100 taels this month, it will get 30 taels from me. If the bonus is 1000 taels, it will get 300 taels from me."

As soon as these words came out, the three people in the room took a breath of air-conditioning. 300 taels was enough for the farmer's family for several years. This was still a month's amount.

Bai Ruozhu snickered in her heart, 300 taels shocked them like this, and there will definitely be more than this in the future.

"So much as 1000 taels?" Lin Ping'er was dumbfounded, "Is it really possible?"

Bai Ruozhu smiled, his face full of confidence.

Lin Ping'er and Bai Zehao both couldn't come to their senses, but Bai Zepei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Mom, brother, if the little sister says there is something, there will be it."

Bai Zepei is the most well-educated and knowledgeable person in the family, so as soon as he opens his mouth, Lin and Bai Zehao have no reason not to believe him.

Bai Ruozhu didn't expect her second brother to believe her so much. She smiled gratefully at him, and then saw him purse his lips slightly, and suddenly understood.

Bai Zepei's mouth ulcers and gum inflammation are very serious, so he is also the person who can best appreciate the effect of toothpaste.

At this time, the courtyard door rang, and it was Bai Yihong who came back.

Bai Yihong drank some wine. It was the village chief who invited him to dinner and toasted him in front of several elders. He even asked him his opinion on running a school. Fortunately, his daughter gave him an idea before. He said Wan immediately received praise from the village chief and elders, and a group of people were full of praise for him.

Bai Yihong drank two more drinks when he was happy, but one thing about him was better, that is, he drank in a measured manner and would not get drunk, and his wine was very good.

Ever since Bai Yihong was sensible, the family's money has been used for his eldest brother's education. He has helped the family with work early on, feeding pigs, collecting firewood, and going to the fields. But no matter how hard he works, what his parents value most is always Big brother, what he does is no longer as useful as big brother's words.

Also in the village, when people used to mention his eldest brother, they said he was a promising son because he was a scholar. The most they said about him was that he was steady and nothing else.Although he had a little sadness in his heart, he never resented anyone. He felt that this was his fate. If he really wanted to study, he might not be able to do it.

Until recently, he suddenly became the focus of the villagers' eyes. The village chief and elders praised him for being reasonable and quick-thinking. Even the villagers looked at him differently, with more respect.

But he knew that all this was given by his daughter. Ever since his daughter was bullied by Liu San's wife and gave up on immortality, she became cheerful and her mind became more and more active.

Thinking of this, Bai Yihong felt more and more that his daughter was the treasure of the family.

"Mom, on the way back, I heard someone said that we have a distinguished guest. Isn't it his aunt who is back?" Bai Yihong asked happily. His aunt is Bai Yihong's eldest sister Bai Yun, because she was the eldest daughter of a scholar. , so she married into a family in Beiyu City.

It's just that Bai Yun rarely returned to Houshan Village after she got married. It was good to come back once a year. However, in ancient times, few people always ran to their parents' home when they married and followed their husbands, let alone someone who was far away like her.

Lin Ping'er hurriedly waved to Bai Yihong, "Master, please come into the house and talk." When Bai Yihong entered the room, Lin Ping'er told Bai Yihong about Du Zhongshu coming to discuss cooperation in a few words. Bai Yihong's eyes lit up after hearing this. Also fully awake.

However, he quickly frowned, looked at Bai Ruozhu and asked, "Daughter, is that improvement recipe you mentioned really worthy of receiving a [-]% bonus?"

Bai Ruozhu knew that her father was an honest man. When he heard about making money, the first thing he thought about was not how to get more money, but whether he was qualified to ask for so much from others. He was a man who knew his duty.

"Dad, don't worry. This toothpaste has a lot of room for improvement. I won't brag about this. It will definitely help the Du family make a lot of money. It will be too late for them to thank me." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile.

"That's good." After hearing his daughter's words, Bai Yihong immediately felt relieved and put a smile on his face again, "Our Ruozhu is really becoming more and more capable. We are really the female Zhuge of our family."

Lin Ping'er took Bai Ruozhu's hand and said very proudly: "My daughter has been smart since she was a child. Need I say this?"

"Yes, yes, my daughter's intelligence is up to you." Bai Yihong said cheerfully.

The whole family laughed and looked happy.

Finally, Bai Ruozhu asked everyone not to tell anyone about the cooperation with the Du Family Medical Center, lest interested people become jealous.

The whole family has no objections. If the people in the old house find out, they will definitely make a fuss and get involved. It's not disturbing enough.

When Du Zhongshu left, he said that he was looking for a middleman to draw up the contract. When he was ready, he would ask Bai Ruozhu to sign it. With the contract in black and white, he was not afraid that the Du family would miss out on the dividends.

However, Bai Ruozhu didn't mention it to her family. If the dividends were huge in the future, the Du family would inevitably have other thoughts. Human nature always has a greedy side. Even if Du Zhongshu is a gentleman, it does not mean that everyone in the Du family is.

So she knows very well that if she wants to protect her own interests, a contract is not enough. She must have sufficient strength to prevent others from lying to you, deceiving you, or plotting against you.

The apricots in the village are ripening one after another these days. Bai Ruozhu prepared earthen pots and materials and planned to make preserved apricots with her little sister Fang Guizhi. When Fang Guizhi arrived at Bai's house, she brought some news to her.

"Ruozhu, there has been a lot of commotion in the village recently, saying..." Fang Guizhi paused, seeming to hesitate.

Bai Ruozhu immediately guessed what was going on and asked with a smile: "Did you say that a distinguished guest came to my house and came by carriage? What else did they say?"

Fang Guizhi nodded, "They said it was your parents who came back, and they said that meeting noble people outside is no longer what it used to be."

Bai Ruozhu was stunned. She knew that the villagers would guess Du Zhongshu's identity, but she never expected that the villagers would treat him as an immortal. Isn't this too funny?

But she soon figured it out. Her father had rescued the unconscious Changsheng before, but he didn't know his identity. Seeing that he was too good-looking, he kept telling him to darken his face. During the previous quarrel, Liu San's wife also said that Chang Sheng was very dark, so the people in the village didn't know Chang Sheng's true appearance.

But Eucommia ulmoides is quite white. How did the villagers associate the two with each other?
