"As for her, she is a hard-working person taken in by Qingyunguan, her husband died and she was alone, I saw that she was pitiful and brought it back, and now my daughter is in need of employment."

And Mei Niang couldn't help but tremble when she heard the guard mention herself, she was really afraid that the master's family would drive her away, and there would be no place for her at that time.

Wei Shu felt Meiniang's uneasy mood, and threw a reassuring look at her, signaling her not to worry.

The guard's eyes looked at Mei Niang for a moment, and Fang said, "Okay, you have a good heart, and our family can't afford to raise a slave." ”

When Wei Shu heard this, a big smile immediately appeared on his face, "I know that my father is the most understanding, but Meiniang won't eat our family's food for nothing, isn't it?" ”

Mei Niang hurriedly said, "The grace of the lord and the young lady, Mei Niang is willing to be a cow and a Malay newspaper." ”

The guard waved his hand with satisfaction, "Okay, you all go down, I want to say a few words to the young lady." ”

Rong'er and Meiniang hurriedly said, "Yes, master," and then retreated.

After the maid and everyone retreated, there was only one of them left in the hall.

"Sit down and talk."

The guard picked up the teacup again, raised his eyelids and said.

"Thank you, Daddy."

Wei Shu was slightly blessed, and then sat down on the chair on the lower right, "Daddy, what else do you want to ask?" ”

The guard said unhurriedly, "Why did you say that for Lord Chen today?" ”

It turned out that it was for this, Wei Shu secretly smiled in his heart, "My daughter wants to ask my father, as a member of Qingcheng, whether the relationship with the local parents and officials is close?" ”

"This..."The guard was slightly stunned, he had lived in Qingcheng for half his life, but he really couldn't look down on those who followed the officials and patted the horses, and he never disdained it.

But he immediately understood what his daughter meant, so he lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.

"Daddy, do you know why our family is in such a situation? Then the Zheng family and the Mu family put so many opponents against us without suppression?

It's not because our family has no support behind it, if it weren't for the relationship between the uncle and the aunt, I'm afraid this Qingcheng would have no place for us to stand on it for a long time.

Of course, it's not your father's fault, it's your fault, it's that those people can be subservient and flattering for the sake of profit, and call their sons and grandchildren."

She sighed and said, "Nowadays, there are not many righteous businessmen like my father who have the style of a literati, but now our family has become the target of public criticism."

Today is not that the daughter wants to pat Lord Chen's sycophants, but that the expedient measures are helpless, and if the daughter wants to save the Wei family's business, she must get the support of her parents, Lord Chen. ”

Wei Shu's tone was quite tactful, and he didn't want to hurt the face of the guard.

She just hopes that her father can accept the fact that in this world, the tougher the branch, the easier it is to break, and her father's temperament is the kind of person who would rather bend than bend.

"You kid, your father still needs you to teach you to do things?"

Mrs. Shen couldn't stand it anymore, so she scolded, she was just an ordinary woman, she didn't have much knowledge, and only upheld the concept that children should be filial and not disobedient to their parents.

As for the meaning of Fang Cai Weishu's words, she didn't understand it at all.

"Yes, my daughter lost her words, and I ask my father not to be angry with my daughter." Wei Shu bit his lip as he said and slowly lowered his head.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became very quiet, and the guards let out a long sigh after a long silence.

"Hey... In fact, Shu'er is right, our family was equal to the Hua family in Qingcheng at first, but after all these years, Hua Yonghe has become the richest man in Qingcheng, and I am still standing still. ”

The guard said with a self-deprecating smile on his face.

Wei Shu said, "Daddy, in fact, Daddy can do this without pleasing those officials, and it is already very powerful that Daddy can do this business, and in Shu'er's eyes, Daddy is the best." ”

She suddenly regretted that she didn't say it more tactfully, she had been with her cheap dad for so long, and she didn't want to hurt her father's heart.

The guard suddenly raised his head and looked at Wei Shu, "Shu'er, it's all Daddy who is sorry for you, if it weren't for Daddy's stubbornness, why would you have to face so much?" ”

After that, he sighed slightly, "That's it, you have grown up, you can just look at the things in the shop and make up your mind in the future, Daddy believes in you." ”

Wei Shu's heart moved, and he quickly got up and bowed to the guard, "Thank you for your trust." ”

"Well, you go down first."

The guard had not yet recovered from the frustration of being powerless in the face of reality, and waved her hand to stand down.

"The daughter quit."

...

In Chen's mansion, in the study of the county magistrate, Mu Yusheng was still leaning lazily on the chair, while Lord Chen stood respectfully, wiping the fine beads of sweat from his forehead from time to time.

Mu Yusheng's sharp gaze stared at Lord Chen's body, and he felt uneasy when he saw it.

After a long time, the thin lips on that demonic face said lightly, "The old man may be about to be transferred, but for the sake of insurance, he still has to make some more political achievements." ”

For every word that Mu Yusheng's mouth said, Master Chen thought quickly in his heart.

When the son suddenly told himself about the old man's transfer, he must have something to say, but he couldn't guess that a subordinate who couldn't understand the orders of his superiors must be unqualified.

Originally, he thought that Childe would ask about robbers outside the city, but now it seems... He really didn't understand what it meant to give Childe,

After pondering for a moment, Lord Chen finally clasped his fists and saluted, "The lower official is stupid, and I ask the prince to make it clear." ”

Mu Yusheng casually played with the jade wrench in his hand, and said slowly, "Tianmen Mountain is located at the intersection of three continents, and the gang of thieves above has been greatly injured since they were surrounded and suppressed two years ago, and there has been no action in the past two years. ”

Lord Chen's intuition was not good, and the green tendons on his temples kept jumping suddenly because he was too nervous, and whispered, "That... What does Childe mean? ”

"My son thinks that two years is enough for them to recuperate, Lord Chen said, isn't it?"

Mu Yusheng muttered, but there was a bloodthirsty smell in his voice.

Master Chen understood what he meant, and was shocked in his heart, and after a moment of silence, he replied cautiously, "Yes, so the lower official has something to report, and he also asked the prince to convey it to the old man on his behalf." ”

"Oh, what's the matter?" Mu Yusheng raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at him.

Lord Chen knelt down, "Back to Gongzi, Xia Guan found that the gang of thieves in Tianmen Mountain has been showing signs of imminent action recently, and today he is even more bold to kidnap Miss Wei, but fortunately, Gongzi killed those thieves in time, but according to Xia Guan's estimate, it won't be long before they will commit the crime again, and I hope that the old man can send troops to encircle and suppress it again." ”

Lord Chen finished speaking in one breath, maybe it was just an ordinary ruffian who wanted to kidnap Miss Wei today.

But the superiors need them to become people from Tianmen Mountain...
