579 It is said that the Lu family is short of manpower (one shift)

Although he said tomorrow's things, he would talk about them tomorrow, but those were the words of comfort to his wife.

Over the years, the old woman has slept lightly, and she has always heard some rumors about the Shi family being feared by the royal family, so she always feels that her daughter and granddaughter are in dire straits from time to time, and she is more and more worried like a frightened bird.

is biased, she understands the truth, and she can't convince herself.

Therefore, the government rarely mentions those bad things in front of her, and most of them only occasionally say some interesting things. She was also happy to cooperate with the smile, and some things were gently revealed...... Old Man Lu also knows this.

You know I'm coaxing you, and I know you're not as relieved as you seem.

It's just that they don't want each other to worry.

The night was dark, as dark as splashing ink, and the dripping rain hit the window lattice, indicating that the flood had not yet passed. There are many fewer people in the house than usual, and they all go to build the embankment, because the house is somewhat deserted these days.

He stood at the window for a long time, thinking of a lot of reasons why Shi Huan rushed to Jiangnan alone, but he couldn't guess it...... was about to squint for a while while before dawn, but saw the housekeeper hurrying forward.

Master Lu looked back at his wife, who was sleeping on the bed and was not comforted, sighed, and walked out of the room lightly, "What's going on, so flustered and frizzy." ā€

"Sir...... The head of the house is back......"

I was stunned, "Arrived at the gate?" ā€

The housekeeper smiled, "I know that you are worried and in a hurry, our people hurried back to report the letter in advance, at that time they said that they had just entered the city, and they will calculate it at this time, and there will be a while to get to the gate, so there is no hurry...... There is no hurry. ā€

The old man glanced sideways, "Why aren't you in a hurry?" According to his original time, he should have come back a long time ago, but now that it is so late, he must have encountered a flood on the way back, and there may be casualties...... Do you think the old man is not in a hurry? ā€

"Hurry, hurry! What are you still grinding?! ā€

The housekeeper was a short, thin old man, who didn't like long shirts or vests, and looked capable and straightforward, but at this time, he was unhurried, "Master...... Don't worry, I heard that the head of the family didn't leave for a few days, and he received a letter sent by the eldest lady. Not to mention ......"

The old man breathed a sigh of relief, and before anyone could finish speaking, he strode out, asking as he went, "So, this trip...... Thrilled or not? No casualties? ā€

The butler nodded, "Yes...... There were no casualties. Lord......"

"That's good...... That's good...... This girl is also reliable, and he can even catch up with our merchant ships. When I went to the imperial capital, I felt that this girl was more able to take charge of herself than before, but it was cheaper to take care of the boy......"

The old man muttered proudly, and seeing that the butler did not answer, he turned back with great interest and asked, "Is it?" The little girl is not a kid who has much potential! ā€

"Yes......" Who dares to say that it is not coming? The butler opened his mouth, "Master...... That ......"

"Stop talking!" Seeing that the gate was close at hand, where did the old man still have the heart to listen to an old guy chirping crookedly and saying something that he didn't have, so he waved his hand and strode out......

When one foot stepped out of the gate, and the other foot could be lifted, the footsteps paused, forgetting to step out, and forgetting to fall back.

Lu Yanting heard the movement, turned to look over, and frowned, "Father." It's almost dawn, why haven't you slept yet? These people are too, and they also went to tell you that how can the head of the family still be at the door of the house......"

"Shut up!"

Although the old man didn't say it, he was really worried for several days, and when he heard that people arrived at the gate, he rushed out in a hurry. When they met at this moment, he even trembled his lips, and his eyes were fixed on Lu Yanting...... The girl next to me.

The girl was not cowardly, Ying Ying smiled and blessed her body, "I have seen the old master of the Lu family." The little girl's name is Rong Xi. "I haven't called myself a "little girl" for many years, and I'm more or less ...... Cough...... Unnatural.

The old man is also unnatural.

One foot was still in the door, the hand behind his back was shaking, and he gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice, "Why don't you say it to the old man?!" ā€

The housekeeper was speechless, "Old slave...... I want to say, you...... Didn't let it. ā€

The person who reported the news said early in the morning that the head of the family brought a girl back, and he was naturally cautious on his side, but the problem was ...... I wanted to open my mouth again and again to say it, wasn't this blocked by the old man?

The housekeeper is aggrieved.

The old man is even more aggrieved, shouldn't this kind of top important thing be the first to say, what do you mean by hiding and wanting to speak? It's good now, my old face has been lost! He sneered and looked at Rong Xi, "Rong, Miss Rong, right...... It's a long time to travel, so please hurry inside. These people are really, and they didn't spread the word earlier, and now at this juncture, I'm afraid that those guest houses are damp and moldy, or ...... Why don't you live in the courtyard of the banquet court first? ā€

The meaning is too obvious.

Rao is Rong Xi has been immersed in the business world for many years, and he has already learned the ability to play with ease, and he is more or less embarrassed at the moment, after all, the other party is likely to be his future father-in-law......

"Ahem...... butler sneered, not daring to speak. The Lujia Guest House has been cleaned by people for a long time, and there will be no dampness and mildew at any time.

Among the several people, the calmest one was Lu Yanting, who turned his head to look at Rong Xi, "In this way, it's so troublesome Miss Rong to be wronged, tomorrow I will ask someone to clean a guest house and come out...... That's right......"

He turned his head to look at the butler, "These days...... Everyone in the house has gone to build the embankment, is there enough manpower? ā€

…… Building a dam is a matter for men and strong men, and even if there are not enough people, there will be no shortage of people who will clean your yard! The housekeeper was slandered in his heart, but his mouth was not timid, "Go home." This year's floods are much more menacing than in previous years, and the government has neglected to take care of them...... You don't have to blame, tomorrow the old slave will personally tidy up a yard for Miss Rong and come out......"

"No, no...... I—I'm fine. Rong Xi became more and more uncomfortable, naturally he couldn't bother the housekeeper to tidy up the yard for himself, but after refusing like this, he felt that it was like saying this...... It didn't seem quite right, and he was quite eager to cover it up, "I—I mean, I'll just do it myself." ā€

For a while, the roots of his ears were flushed.
