Chapter 344: 344: Male Version of Cinderella (Thanks to "Mu Lin Xi Luo" for the tip)
To Mu Mingyu’s surprise, most of the initiators of these rice powder charity events were quite sensible and organized, with only a few individuals trying to join the craze and grab some attention.
The official rice powder organization isn’t stupid either. They thoroughly investigate all charity events conducted in the name of "rice powder" and then publish the results on their official website, so the public can identify which are the real "rice powder charity events," ensuring no mix-ups.
Those not recognized by the officials (including, possibly, those assisted by Mu Mingyu, Gong Leitian, and others) either received legal letters or were directly exposed by news reports.
Some were dissatisfied, saying, "We’re all doing charity, why make such a clear distinction?"
The official rice powder organization responded, "Sorry, although we’re all involved in charity, ours is the official rice powder charity. To ensure the authenticity, effectiveness, and protection of rice powder charity, we do not accept any ’borrowing’ from unofficial sources."
This was the first official, organized, and planned action by rice powder enthusiasts showcasing their strength across Huaxia.
Yes! That’s right!
They’re just a group of idol fans, a group of rice powder enthusiasts, but they have ideals, integrity, and aspirations, far beyond those grassroots fans who simply shout "I love you" and call it a day.
They are the most outstanding fans, who can make their idols proud and bring pride to the Huaxia nation!
There was a special report on this, where the official rice powder representative, wearing their dedicated mask, said, "Actually, when we first started idolizing, we just liked Jiang Nuo without much thought. But with Mu Qiuniang’s appearance, she showed us how blissful it is to be a good person! Especially with her many acts of kindness, as their rice powder fans, we couldn’t let them down!"
The last sentence almost spoke the hearts of all rice powder fans.
Even Mu Bai, Murong, Zhan Jingshu, and others from afar were thrilled, and the fans posted on their own Weibo, saying: [As the great-niece of Aunt Mu Qiuniang and a rice powder fan, I absolutely can’t disgrace Aunt Mu Qiuniang and Uncle Jiang Nuo!]
Murong: [As the second apprentice of Master Mu Qiuniang and a great-nephew, I absolutely can’t disgrace Master Mu Qiuniang and Uncle Jiang Nuo!]
Zhan Jingshu: [As the eldest disciple of Master Mu Qiuniang and a rice powder fan, I absolutely can’t disgrace Master Mu Qiuniang and Master Jiang Nuo!]
The moment these three Weibo posts appeared, people were in an uproar: [Host, you’ve got a lot of nerve, since when did Goddess Mu Qiuniang become your great-aunt?!]
[Since when did Mu Qiuniang have apprentices, how come we didn’t know?]
[Ah, I just remembered, I saw Mu Qiuniang at Grandpa Mu’s birthday banquet, I thought she just looked a bit alike, but I can’t believe she’s actually my goddess?! Damn, why was I so stupid that day, not rushing to ask for an autograph? Ugh, you two, Xiaobai and Arong, how could you not share such a great thing with me?]
[Dear Zhan Jingshu, serve your Master Mu Qiuniang well and don’t embarrass your master, or else your second brother won’t acknowledge you!]
[Dear Zhan Jingshu, serve your Master Mu Qiuniang well and don’t embarrass your master, or your big brother won’t acknowledge you!]
[Dear Zhan Jingshu, serve your Master Mu Qiuniang well and don’t embarrass your master, or your dad won’t acknowledge you!]
[Dear Zhan Jingshu, serve your Master Mu Qiuniang well and don’t embarrass your master, or your mom won’t acknowledge you!]
[Dear Zhan Jingshu, serve your Master Mu Qiuniang well and don’t embarrass your master, or your grandpa won’t acknowledge you!]
...
Zhan Jingshu, seeing a string of familiar Weibo names, almost cried. He just wanted to express a gesture to his master, but why did it involve his entire family?
Then, Weibo was buzzing again, because they soon discovered many of the mentions of Xiaobai, Arong, and Jingshu were actually important figures from the Capital City’s Mu family and the Zhan family. Those unique official real names and pictures couldn’t be faked by anyone.
What was even more shocking was that Mu Qiuniang was actually from a wealthy family?!
Didn’t see that Xiaobai and Arong called her "great-aunt"? With the same surname Mu, wasn’t Mu Qiuniang part of the Capital City Mu family?!
Most importantly, one of her eldest disciples, Jingshu, was actually the third young master of the richest family in Huaxia, the Capital City’s Zhan family?!
My heavens?!
Mu Qiuniang is just amazing?!
She’s so incredible, how did Jiang Nuo, who was once an orphan with nothing, end up with her?!
Could this be a modern version of a Cinderella (male version) marrying a princess (female version) fairy tale?!
A rice powder fan commented: [I seem to have fallen in love again!]
[Yes, if this isn’t true love, what is it?]
[I used to think Mu Qiuniang wasn’t a good match for Jiang Nuo and felt sorry for Jiang Nuo. But now I realize that it was Jiang Nuo who wasn’t a match for Mu Qiuniang. It’s gut-wrenching, what if one day Mu Qiuniang doesn’t want him anymore? No way, Jiang Nuo has to work hard or else he’ll be left behind by such a capable Mu Qiuniang!]
[Did you just realize that? Our Mu Qiuniang has always been so capable, with cooking skills comparable to a divine chef, medical skills on par with the Divine Doctor, not to mention her excellent calligraphy, drawing, embroidery, and sewing skills... a genius! Such a genius truly has no match. But so what, have you forgotten the days of being showered with their sweet moments? I’ve gotten so many cavities.}
[You’ve just got cavities? I’ve already replaced ten sets of false teeth, all from their overly sweet moments. Thankfully, Jiang Nuo hasn’t been appearing much recently, otherwise, I’d have to change them again.]
[Isn’t Jiang Nuo said to be recharging and learning? Maybe because Mu Qiuniang is too impressive, the pressure is immense, and he had to go learn. If I had such a capable wife... though the pressure would be great, I’d endure it no matter how painful, hahahaha...]
[Don’t be envious and jealous, it’s useless, Mu Qiuniang already belongs to our Jiang Nuo! Don’t think that just because Jiang Nuo isn’t around, you can do whatever you want. Wait, Jiang Nuo will be back soon, and you’ll be overwhelmed with their sweetness!]
[Haven’t you been overwhelmed?]
[Wuuu, the single dogs have already passed out in the bathroom. They not only have a wife, but such a capable wife, is this really a world for us to live in?]
[Go, I’ll take care of your body!]
[Too heartless, love is exhausting!]
[Am I the only one concerned about how many patients Mu Qiuniang has cured so far? Supposedly, her medical skills are exceptional, with many previously incurable diseases resolved by her. I just want to know, where does her limit lie?]
[I’ve already informed my parents back home and prepared to take my little cousin from my aunt’s family to visit Goddess Mu Qiuniang. My little cousin, just in her teens, is gravely ill, already waiting for death at home. I hope this time, Mu Qiuniang can truly cure her.]
[Host, remember to keep us updated!]
[Mm!]
[I heard my second grandpa’s brother’s nephew also caught some serious illness, I’m not too sure, but they have been informed. Probably already on their way to the charity hospital, I told them it’s available locally as well, but if it doesn’t work, they’ll notify Goddess Mu Qiuniang. But they don’t believe it and insisted on coming to the Capital City, I can’t do anything about it.]
[Damn! With so many patients, I can already foresee how jam-packed the area will be in Capital City!]
[I plan not to leave the house for the next month.]
[Not going to work?]
[This individual has died, please burn incense!]
[Get lost!]
