Chapter 373 - 373: Shu Yu’s suggestion
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xiang Weinan raised his head. “Your suggestion? What is it?”
“I see that Lord seems to be lacking manpower everywhere. When my Fourth Uncle went missing and came to report to the officials, it seems that you couldn’t spare time to look for him.”
Xiang Weinan raised his eyebrows. The county office was indeed lacking manpower. The former county magistrate had fallen, and many of his original subordinates had followed him and were all wiped out.
He did bring a group of people with him, but these people had other things to do with him.
The original constables were still in charge of the security patrols in the county county office, but they… There were not many people left.
“You mean…”
Shu Yu smiled and said, “Back then, my Fourth Uncle went out to work to earn money. After all, he didn’t have a stable job, so he couldn’t help but take on some short-term jobs. Although he didn’t have the kung fu to protect himself, he was still tall and strong. Otherwise, the bodyguard wouldn’t have asked him to help transport the goods, right? In addition to this matter, Lord Xiang should also be able to see that my uncle is a righteous person. He is bold and meticulous. He can be considered a capable helper. Why didn’t the Lord find him a job that was stable and could help him? Wouldn’t this be a good reward for him?”
Xiang Weinan was deep in thought. Yuan Shanchuan was indeed not bad.
Shu Yu saw that Daniu was already in front of her, so she did not continue. She only said, “Of course, this is only my suggestion. This matter will have to be carefully considered by the Lord yourself. As for my uncle’s side, you will also have to seek his approval.”
After all, Yuan Shanchuan didn’t know if he wanted to do this job or not. Whether he was suitable or not was up to him.
Shu Yu said goodbye to Xiang Weinan. and turned around to meet Daniu.
As the two of them walked to the guest room, Shu Yu asked him, “When you went back to pull the mule carriage, did the old lady say anything?”
Daniu said, “l just happened to be out. The second Aunt is the only one at home. I told the Second Aunt that it wasn’t serious. Second Aunt still had to look after the child, so she didn’t come over.’
Shu Yu nodded and the two of them entered the house together.
Yuan Shanchuan had recovered for a while and was feeling much better. Xiang Weinan had asked the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles for him, and Lu Sixing was feeding him.
Yuan Shanchuan had eaten a lot of desserts on the black market before. Those things could fill his stomach, but they were not as nourishing as noodles. Especially now that the crisis was over, he felt relaxed and ate more than half a bowl.
Lu Si Xing ate the rest.
After resting for a while, they prepared to leave.
This time, Daniu did not ask Hu Li and the others to help him. He carried Yuan Shanchuan out of the guest room.
Shu Yu looked in the direction of the stone table in the courtyard. There were only teacups and teapots left. Xiang Weinan was no longer there.
She retracted her gaze and walked out of the county office with Lu Sixing.
After carefully placing them in the carriage, Shu Yu waved at Hu Li, who had sent them out. “Brother Hu, you can go back first. We’ll be leaving now.”
“Take care.’
The group of people drove to Liufang Alley. When the mule carriage stopped, they saw the old lady hurriedly come out to welcome them.
She didn’t know when she came back, but judging from her appearance, she must have heard about it from Madame Ruan.
The curtain of the car was opened. The old lady asked hurriedly, “How is it? What? Are you alright?”
“I’m fine.” Yuan Shanchuan smiled as he got off the mule carriage. This time, he didn’t let Daniu carry him. It was just a few steps, so he wasn’t too tired.
The old lady let out a sigh of regret. “If I had known that you were injured, I wouldn’t have slapped you..”
