246 Unlucky

In the summer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day.

Sleepy in spring, lack of autumn and napping in summer, Gu Qing lay on the bed lazily and was reluctant to get up.

Zhu Han has already gone out to the restaurant, the business of the restaurant is too good, in addition to focusing on cultivating a few big shopkeepers, he is also looking for a shop to open two more branches.

Gu Qing lay on the bed for a while, but finally got up.

After all, Mama Li was about to bring her subordinates over to serve her to wash, and if she hadn't gotten up, she would definitely look at her with a 'Are you a pig?' expression.

As soon as Gu Qing's feet landed, Mama Li took the little girl into the door and waited for her to wash.

When Gu Qing was having breakfast, Mama Rong suddenly frowned.

"Bai Jin didn't come today."

"Didn't come?"

Mama Rong nodded, "She is the earliest one who came on weekdays, but today she is not seen for a long time. I don't know if something happened."

Gu Qing put down the chopsticks in his hand and put them aside, "I'll let people take a look."

"Hmm."

Gu Qing's name is Xia Zhu, and Xia Zhu seems to have become lazy in the past two days since she came back from the palace, and she just handed over this matter to her in the mansion every day.

Xia Zhu took the order and turned around and left.

However, before she could go out, there was a small knock at the door.

When the porter opened the door, he saw a boy who was cautiously probing his brain raise his hand, and when he saw the porter, he immediately took his hand back.

Then he asked with some hesitation, "Here, is this the Rongchang County Lord's Mansion?"

"Yes, who are you looking for?"

"I, I, look for Lord Rongchang." The boy took a small step back with some trepidation.

Xia Zhu, who was walking to the door, happened to hear this sentence and immediately asked, "Who are you?" What are you looking for our lord to do?"

"I'm Bai Jin's younger brother, Bai En."

Bai Jin's younger brother?

Xia Zhu thought that Bai Jin didn't come today, so he hurriedly let this kid enter the door.

Bai En swallowed his saliva and walked into the door hesitantly, looking nervous.

On a hot day, he wore a pair of spring pants, and the clothes didn't seem to fit very well, and they looked a little short.

Bai En was very thin, his face was red from the sun, and his lips were a little pale.

When Gu Qing walked out, he saw such a kid standing in the courtyard with his neck stretched.

When he saw her, Bai En's eyes lit up slightly, and he quickly stopped after taking a step forward.

"You're Bai Jin's younger brother? She didn't come today, what happened?" Gu Qing asked.

Bai En nodded again and again, "Something happened to my eldest sister, and she can't come over to work for the past two days, so let me come over and take leave with the county lord." The eldest sister said that although the county lord deducted her wages for these two days of leave, she would work twice as much in the future."

As he spoke, Bai En glanced at Gu Qing cautiously again, and added, "County, county lord, can you not dismiss my eldest sister?" She didn't mean not to come to work, something really happened. Otherwise, the county lord will look at me, and I can help the county lord work in the two days that my eldest sister is away."

He patted his chest and straightened his back slightly.

Gu Qing frowned, but didn't answer, just asked, "What happened to Bai Jin?"

"No, it's nothing, it'll be fine in two days."

"If you don't tell the truth, then I'm going to fire her." After getting along with each other for this period of time, Gu Qing somewhat understood Bai Jin's personality and knew that she would not ask for leave unless she had to.

….

Not only did I take leave this time, but I couldn't come yet, which seemed to be a bit serious.

Bai En was said by Gu Qing, and immediately became nervous, "Don't, I'll be honest. My eldest sister was injured by the beam."

"Roof beams??"

"Hmm." Bai En said with a sour heart, and slowly choked up sadly, "There was a crack in our house, it always rained a few days ago, and when it was sunny these days, the crack was even bigger, and it suddenly collapsed yesterday and injured the eldest sister."

"Isn't that serious? only

So she wants to just rest for two days and come over?" Gu Qing couldn't help but raise his voice slightly.

Mama Rong, Mama Li, and several girls in the house also heard the movement, and they all walked out at this time, just in time to hear the conversation.

Bai En listened, and immediately felt annoyed, he shouldn't have said so much. Obviously, before leaving, the eldest sister told him not to say more, why didn't he remember?

Seeing that there were more and more people in the courtyard, Gu Qing's brows became tighter and tighter. Bai En panicked all of a sudden, and he felt that he had messed things up.

He's sorry for the eldest sister.

In order to avoid saying too much and making too many mistakes, Bai En immediately bowed to Gu Qing and said nervously, "It's okay in two days, it's really good in two days, it's not serious, my eldest sister will definitely be able to come over in two days, I, I'll go first."

With that, Bai En turned around and ran.

The people in the courtyard didn't expect him to make this move, the gate was still open, and Bai En rushed out of the courtyard gate in a few big steps.

After a while, the person disappeared into the alley.

"Huh." Gu Qing opened his mouth and wanted to scream, but he didn't have time.

She couldn't help but stroke her forehead, and Mama Rong said worriedly, "Listening to the meaning of his words, Bai Jin is afraid that he will be hurt a lot. Lord, I'll go and see if there's anything I need help with."

Gu Qing shook his head, "Don't go, the store is already busy, Bai Jin was smashed by the beam again, you have to work hard these days."

"In this way, Mama, you go back to the store first, I'm fine, go out for activities."

By the way, let's take a look at Bai Jin's situation again.

After Gu Qing finished speaking, he asked Xia Zhu to prepare the carriage first, and then went into the house to change into thin clothes before going out.

The streets of the capital are different, they are bustling at all times, and the roads are always clean and tidy.

Gu Qing held Bai Jin's home address in his hand, lifted the curtain and looked at the scenery outside.

"County Lord, you hurry in, it's sunbathing outside, don't get heat stroke."

Gu Qing didn't care, "It's okay."

Xia Zhu sighed: "County Lord, we've been too unlucky lately. Murong Xue's mother's illness has just improved, Bai Jin has fallen down again, and the two most useful people are not there, what can I do?"

Gu Qing leaned against the car door, also thinking about this question.

The shop was already very busy, not to mention that Murong Xue and Bai Jin seemed to have few people, and now there are even fewer.

But natural and man-made disasters, the world is unpredictable, and there is no way to do it.

"The most important thing now is to see how Bai Jin's situation is first, and as for the rest, then find a way."

It really didn't work, so she let the maid in the house go on top.

Just serving tea and water, these maids are no problem.

What's more, now that the source of customers has slowly stabilized, they will not be in a hurry.

It shouldn't be a problem to be on top for a while.

Gu Qing thought as he unconsciously looked at the road ahead.

Suddenly, she paused, and suddenly said to Xia Zhu, "Stop."

"Phew." Xia Zhu grabbed the reins and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong, County Lord?"

Gu Qing looked behind the carriage, and sure enough, he saw the crooked figure who was wiping away tears.

Xia Zhu also saw it, "Isn't that Bai En?"

Although they left first, Bai En walked slowly, and was caught up by their carriage at this time.

Bai En hadn't noticed them yet, but when he saw a carriage parked in front of him, he automatically moved to the side and continued to walk forward.

But just after taking two steps, a person suddenly blocked in front of him.

Bai En was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Xia Zhu in front of him, "...... you?"
