Chapter 414: Chapter 414 Future Road, Walkman Chapter 414: Chapter 414 Future Road, Walkman Luo Qiao and Luo Siyuan returned to their grandparents’ house, and Luo Xuyan kept pestering Luo Qiao to teach him how to play the hulusi. So, one taught earnestly while the other learned attentively, and by dinnertime, Luo Xuyan could actually play a tune.
With a plan in mind, Luo Qiao finished her meal and said to her grandparents, “Grandpa, Grandma, I think Big Brother has a special talent for music, and he likes it himself. I’m thinking of finding a teacher to give him private lessons.
“If Big Brother enrolls in a class with children now, I’m afraid he might feel burdened. What do you think?”
Luo Daoren replied, “Alright, I’ll inquire about it in the next few days. It’s good that he has his own interests. If he learns well, it can be a way for him to support himself in the future.”
After the matter was settled, Luo Qiao began to perform acupuncture treatments for her Big Brother and Second Brother, with Luo Siyuan watching the entire process. He was full of admiration for his little sister.
When the treatment was over, Grandma had the medicinal soup ready. During this period, Luo Qiao always added water from the space in the kitchen water tank, hoping it would help Big Brother and Second Brother, and keep their grandparents healthy and strong.
That evening, she also gave Grandma a full-body massage, using her special ability to help sort out her meridians, and that night Grandma slept extremely comfortably.
The next morning, as usual, Luo Qiao meditated in the small forest behind the house. After completing the treatments for Big Brother and Second Brother, Fourth Brother came over and said, “Qiaoqiao, give Fourth Brother a massage someday too, they all look so relaxed and happy.”
Luo Qiao replied with a smile, “When I come back this evening, I’ll give you and Grandpa a full-body massage. I guarantee you’ll feel refreshed and comfortable.”
After eating, Luo Qiao bid farewell to her grandparents and walked out of the alley, only to see the Jing Family’s car, something she had not anticipated.
Luo Qiao didn’t make a fuss and got into the car, exchanging a few auspicious words with the driver before heading to the Jing Family’s home.
Upon arrival, all the Jing Family’s children were there. Luo Qiao simply nodded to everyone in a token greeting before approaching Old Master Jing, “Grandpa Jing, happy New Year, wishing you joy, and may everything go your way in the new year!”
Elder Jing’s face lit up with a smile, “Good, good, good, this year has been the most comfortable one for this old man—eating well, sleeping well, all thanks to you, my girl.”
Luo Qiao said with a smile, “You’re too kind. Let me take your pulse first.”
Old Master Jing laughed and took out a red envelope from under the table, “Take this, it’s a little token of my appreciation. You can’t refuse it.”
Luo Qiao hesitated for a moment but still accepted it, saying, “Thank you, Grandpa Jing.”
After tucking away the red envelope and checking his pulse, she said, “The effect is still acceptable. I’ll give you acupuncture today, and then we’ll pause the acupuncture after this session. I will change your prescription; if you take it for about seven or eight days, I’ll come over again.
“If there’s no major issue, I’ll give you another course of acupuncture before I leave. Afterwards, if you complement it with a therapeutic diet, I believe you’ll see results by the time spring arrives.”
Old Master Jing said joyfully, “Good, good, good, honestly, being able to sleep soundly every day is already more than satisfactory. Thank you so much.”
Luo Qiao replied cheerfully, “Don’t mention it, I’m happy to help.”
After administering the acupuncture, as Luo Qiao prepared to leave, she received red envelopes from several branches of the Jing Family. They told her that since she was still a student, these were their tokens of goodwill, so she gratefully accepted them.
When she left the living room, the Butler spoke up, “Miss Luo, our Third Young Master wishes to see you.”
Luo Qiao followed him to the study, where Jing Wanpeng sat behind the desk. Seeing Luo Qiao enter, he said, “I found the Walkman you asked for last time.”
With that, he took out a box from the cabinet below and handed it over to Luo Qiao.
After taking the box, Luo Qiao said, “Thank you so much. How much is it? I’ll bring the money next time I come.”
Jing Wanpeng replied, “Just deduct it from the treatment fee for Elder Jing, and we’ll settle it later.”
Luo Qiao thought for a moment, then decided not to be overly courteous. “That works, but I’m still very grateful,” she said.
After unwrapping the box, even though this Walkman didn’t have a recording function, moving from a vast market of bulky tape recorders to a smaller, personal listening device was impressive. Of course, the price was also impressive.
Originally, the Walkman was intended for Second Brother, but now it seemed it would be extremely useful for Big Brother as well. This made Luo Qiao’s mood quite pleasant.
