Chapter 30: The Whisperer and the Watchman (Part II)
"What! you call me uncle?" Obotov exclaimed, surprised.
Shura was taken aback by the sudden change of the other party, she leaned against the door, did not dare to look at Obotov, and lowered her head slightly.
Realizing that his emotions were too excited, Obotov hurriedly said: "Shura, don't care, I don't blame you, I just feel a little surprised." β
He then glanced inside the room, where Betty and Busso were already up, and they were standing a little uneasy, not daring to come along.
"Then should I call you Big Brother Obo in the future?" Shura asked quietly as she looked at Obotov quietly.
"Ah, yes, just call me Big Brother Aobo. β
Obotov looked at him with a smile on his face, and then he asked, "Can you tell me where Mauss has gone, and when will he return?" β
"Maus went to the lab, I don't know when he will come back, Brother Aobo, are you in a hurry. β
"Lab?"
Obotov was puzzled, and then relieved, thinking that it made sense for Maustus to go to the laboratory, but he felt a little sudden, after all, the Rio estate was currently in the construction stage.
In any case, some things still need the presence of the other party, and now that Mus is gone, Obotov feels that he should use more snacks.
"So Shura, did Mauss explain anything when he left?"
"Well, yes, he told me to go to the bakery and look for Vado. Shura replied earnestly.
"I see, there's still a lot of work to do over there, so I won't bother you, stay safe. Obotov nodded.
When the working poor people got the tools, they all rejoiced, and they felt that it was a gift from the pastures, and they all thanked each other from the bottom of their hearts.
Obotov returned to the city guards, who were organizing the construction of the shed, and everything was going on in an orderly manner.
"Shura, can we do anything about it?" asked Betty as she walked up with Busso.
"I don't know, Mauss didn't explain. Shura shook her head, looking dazed.
"Then my brother and I also went to help with the work, it was the adults who saved Busso, and I want to repay the adults. Betty looked at the busy paupers and said earnestly.
Shura didn't speak, but nodded slightly, which was considered acquiescence, and at the moment her mind was only thinking about going to the bread workshop.
Going to the workshop alone, not nervous that it was fake, Shura thought back to what Mus had said, and kept encouraging herself, she really wanted to do it well.
Betty and Busso were gone, and soon they were joining the workforce, and Obotov, who was not far away, noticed the siblings, and he privately explained to the city guards around him.
After a while, a city guard came to Betty's side, brought them tools, and spoke for a while, in a friendly manner, mostly with some precautions.
Seeing this, the surrounding poor people also knew in their hearts, they didn't dare to bully the two sisters and brothers, and the capable people were thinking about giving them some help within their ability.
"Sister, will all the adults here be in the future?" asked Busso, who was carrying the gravel slabs, whispered, and after a night's rest, his complexion looked very good, and he no longer looked sick.
It's just that the patches on his face haven't disappeared yet, and he looks a little ugly, but this doesn't affect his work.
"Yes, this will be the most beautiful manor in the future, so Busso you have to work hard to repay your kindness. Betty said with a smile.
"Mmmm, I'll work hard, my lord is a good person, sister, can we always live here in the future?" Busso's eyes showed a deep hope.
"Yes, we will all live here in the future, and the adults will build castles and beautiful houses, and there will be flowers all around. Faced with Busso's serious look, Betty didn't want to disappoint him, she could only choose to lie.
"Sister, I want to work hard for adults. β
Children's ideas are very simple, as long as you give a little hope in good faith, they will be full of brightness for the future, I don't know if others think so, at least the current Busso's heart is full of fighting spirit.
The words of the siblings touched the poor people around them, and they knew very well that this was just a bubble, but who didn't have such hopes, otherwise life would be too cruel.
"Did you just come here today?"
Betty looked at the ponytailed girl, who was about the same age as Busso, and saw several children her age not far away, working with a dark-skinned teenager.
"Yes, my brother and I just came here, what about you?" said Betty, feeling the innocent gaze of the little girl.
"We came here with my brother yesterday, and that was my brother. The little girl had a smile on her face, and she stretched out her hand and pointed to the Iron Mountain in the distance.
"Yesterday the adults gave us a lot of bread, so we all worked hard. The little girl took an iron pickaxe, and after saying this, she began to dig hard.
"Uh-huh, let's do it together. β
"Come on, my lord is the best person in the world, my name is Ann. The little girl smiled happily at Betty.
"I'm Betty, and this is my brother, Busso. β
Small talk in the work is very time-consuming, this point is strictly forbidden by the city guards, at least those adults do not have the courage to do this, but if the object is a child, then it can be appropriately relaxed.
Especially the two siblings, Betty and Busso, the surrounding city guards didn't want to embarrass them too much, whether it was Obotov's explanation, or they lived in Maus's room before, these clues were enough to make the city guards know in their hearts.
Soon after, Tieshan's younger siblings became familiar with the siblings, sometimes talking, as if they were a small group.
Iron Mountain didn't stop it, he just worked hard, and he didn't get involved in it all the time.
Obotov, who was building a shed, saw Shura approaching, he put down what he was doing and stopped him.
"Shura, do you want me to find someone to go to the workshop with you?"
"Thank you, Brother Aobo, I can do it. Shura replied politely.
"Okay, then we'll wait for your bread, come on. Obotov smiled, he didn't continue to insist, choosing to believe the other party.
The bakery is doing very well today, and many wealthy people from the city have come, and they usually come every few days to buy bread.
Shura paused at the door for a moment before walking in, and the strange stares of the people around her made her very uncomfortable.
"Oh my God, how could there be a little beggar here? β
"Aren't you afraid that she'll stain the bread here?"
A lady in a cheongsam made a high-pitched voice, as if she was afraid that others would not hear her, which made the attendant beside her embarrassed, who knew Shura.
"Madame, I'm sorry to have troubled you, but she's not a little beggar, she's a guest here, don't you know that the Rio estate has a new owner?"
The squire said with an apologetic look on his face, not humblingly, he had noticed that Shura's expression had darkened.
"Is this true, it seems that the new master really doesn't know how to operate, even if it's a maid, at least she has to pick some cleaner ones. The lady said in surprise.
