Chapter 230: Two hundred and twenty-nine, I want to go back

"Stop!" Song Xiran’s voice came from one side.

Ah Hu and his companion heard this and quickly stopped, retreating to the side.

Song Yuyan gave Yao Qing a look, and Yao Qing could only reluctantly retract her foot. Although she had not vented enough, her mood was much better than before.

"Xiran, you’re back!" Song Yuyan said with a smile, looking at Song Xiran who was walking in from outside. She dared not underestimate her nephew. The things he had done made her feel somewhat chilled.

Song Xiran glanced at Luo Shan and Luo Zheng, his gaze indifferent as he looked towards Song Yuyan, "Auntie, don’t you think you’ve been too excessive?"

"Xiran, as you know, the day Qingqing was humiliated at Luo Shu’s place, Qingqing was just giving them a small lesson, just to let off some steam," said Song Yuyan with a flattering smile. In fact, she had seen him standing outside the door earlier and, knowing he did not stop them, she knew he tacitly allowed them to teach the Luo siblings a lesson.

"I hope there won’t be a next time, otherwise, even if you are my aunt, I will be angry," Song Xiran warned as he looked at Song Yuyan. When Luo Shan was being hit, he had already been standing outside the door. The reason he had not intervened was that he had not seen Luo Zheng’s strength yet. Now it seemed Luo Zheng had at most learned a few fighting techniques.

"No, there won’t be! We’ll be leaving now," Song Yuyan said, already pulling Yao Qing towards the door.

Song Xiran looked coldly at Sister-in-law Fang standing on the side, "What are you waiting for? Go call the doctor over now."

"Yes!" Sister-in-law Fang hurriedly walked outside. She truly respected this young master from the bottom of her heart.

Song Xiran walked over, reached out to pull up Luo Shan from the ground, and had her sit on the sofa, "It’s alright now, the doctor will be here in a moment." He gently comforted Luo Shan a few words and then turned towards Luo Zheng, "How are you?"

"It’s just a minor injury," Luo Zheng said, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand. He had not used the moves from the Five Animal Frolics just now. Even if he got beaten, he would not let the Song family know about the Five Animal Frolics. That was his promise to his older sister!

"Cousin... I want to go back... I don’t want to stay in the Song family anymore..." Luo Shan spoke up. Yao Qing was right, she really didn’t belong here.

Song Xiran offered a slight smile, "Silly girl, this is your home. Where else do you want to go back to? Don’t worry! From now on, I’ll have someone protect you guys, and nothing like today will ever happen again." They were his bargaining chips in the negotiations with Luo Shu; how could he possibly let them go back?

"This life... it isn’t for me..." Luo Shan said timidly. She really didn’t want to stay here anymore. The attitudes of Yao Qing and her daughter, Sister-in-law Fang, and the bodyguards who had beaten Xiao Zheng, all made it clear to her. Here she had a quality life with no worries about food or clothing, but she had suddenly realized that she seemed to have lost her freedom, just like a bird trapped in a cage.

"Don’t think too much, just stay here with peace of mind. If someone dares to bully you again, just tell me and I will take care of it for you," Song Xiran said while patting Luo Shan’s shoulder, a flash of disdain in his eyes.

"But..."

"No buts. The doctor is here, let him take good care of you," said Song Xiran, turning to He Yihua who was walking towards them. To prevent accidents among family members, he had specially hired He Yihua to be their family doctor. He Yihua held a very high status in the medical world, and many officials of Jinchen would invite him for consultations.

Without giving Luo Shan any chance to object, Song Xiran stood up and said to He Yihua, who had now reached them, "Doctor He, please give them a thorough check-up and don’t neglect anything."

"Yes, young master!" He Yihua nodded in response.

Song Xiran nodded slightly and strode upstairs.

Luo Zheng watched Song Xiran’s retreating figure, deep in thought. He really couldn’t understand why Song Xiran insisted on keeping him and his sister in the Song family, what was his ultimate purpose?

Luo Shu had been busy acquiring medicinal materials these past few days. Although her space had enough medicinal materials, using them to produce Snow Skin Cream would be a waste. Moreover, if she casually brought out dozens of tons of materials, it would not only scare people but also raise suspicions among those with ulterior motives.

As for recruiting for the factory, purchasing machinery for production, and dealing with a series of formalities, these had already been taken care of by the people sent by Luo Qianyu, so she was happy to relax.

Driving her car, Luo Shu arrived at Siyang Village, which she and Lu Hanmo had passed when they came down the mountain after the rail explosion.

She found Li Er, whom they had saved when he was bitten by a snake during their descent.

Seeing Luo Shu, Li Er was overwhelmed with excitement. If not for her, he would have lost his life that day.

Upon welcoming Luo Shu into his home, and once Li Er’s family realized she was their savior, they immediately brought out the best they could offer for the table, which was only some cornbread and a few sweet potatoes.

In this era, having enough to eat was already a blessing. His family could at most get about twenty kilograms of grain a month, and if they ran out, they had to rely on digging up some wild vegetables or tree bark.

"Brother Li, please don’t rush. I’m here to discuss something with you," Luo Shu said after letting Li Er sit down.

"Whatever it is, benefactor, I’ll help you," Li Er said, patting his chest. His life was saved by her, at most, he would just give it back to her.

"Here’s the thing; I started a factory that requires a large amount of medicinal materials. These can be found in abundance on the mountain, and all you have to do is collect them for me. Of course, I won’t make you work for nothing; I will buy the materials at market prices. You can mobilize the whole village to help me collect; I will take as much as you can gather," Luo Shu explained. The mountain was a treasure trove, rich with countless medicinal materials, enough for her first year’s supply.

Upon hearing this, Li Er’s eyes lit up, "That’s a great opportunity! I’ll go call the village chief right now." If Luo Shu was truly willing to buy as much as they could gather, then Siyang Village wouldn’t be poor anymore. However, he was also worried; what if collecting herbs en masse in the mountains led to accusations of speculation and profiteering?

"Benefactor, won’t we get reported for doing this?" Li Er took a few steps and then returned to ask. It was of little consequence for his family alone, but if he involved the whole village and they got reported, it would spell disaster for everyone.

Luo Shu smiled and shook her head, "Once this is decided, I’ll personally visit your village’s chief to talk about it."
