Chapter 212: The Wrong Person

Zhao Liya smiled helplessly and said, "I just don't want your general to be in charge."

"this--"

Zhong Ming didn't quite understand and looked a little hurt: "Is Miss Zhao so distant? Miss Zhao doesn't consider the general a friend. The general must be very sad if he knew."

Zhao Liya guessed about half of what he was thinking from his reaction, so she patiently explained, "It's not what you think. We can handle this matter, so there's no need to involve your general. Otherwise, your general would owe Yin County a favor, which wouldn't be very nice. Don't worry, if we can't solve it, we will definitely ask your general for help!"

Magistrate Yin was not completely confused or cruel to the point of being ruthless, but it was not difficult for him to deal with the helpless Mao Dexing.

Zhong Ming was relieved and nodded with a smile: "Okay, okay, if Miss Zhao can't solve it, please tell our general."

"Well, that's for sure!"

The next day, Zhong Ming took his two brothers back.

Zhao Liya spent the entire evening writing several pages about the shipping route and asked Zhong Ming to take it back. She said she would visit again when things were more peaceful and check on how the crops were doing there.

Whether canned food can be made should be determined by then.

The can of coconut that I brought back is still in her room!

Zhao Liya also asked Zhong Ming to take back the second phase of investment of 30,000 taels of silver notes.

Zhong Ming's face suddenly became serious. He had to keep such a large sum of money well.

After a delicious breakfast, Zhong Ming and the other two said goodbye and returned with a few meat buns with thin skin and big fillings in their pockets.

Zhong Ming didn't expect that he and his two brothers were stopped not long after they left the village by car.

Although the people who blocked his way were a young woman and two maids, he had such a large fortune in his arms that he could not take it lightly, as he saw everyone with bad intentions.

"Who are you? What do you want?"

Zhong Ming questioned with murderous intent, but Luo Shuyu was secretly happy in his heart: Yes, it must be!

If they weren't servants from the mysterious big boss's family, how could servants from other families have such momentum? Tsk tsk tsk, no wonder the big boss is so mysterious and wealthy!

Extraordinary! Just extraordinary!

Wanting to make a good impression, Luo Shuyu quickly knelt and saluted, his face filled with an ingratiating smile. "Excuse me, are you the steward of the family of the big boss who cooperates with the Zhao family? You are so capable at such a young age. You are worthy of being from a wealthy family. How can others compare to you?"

"Big boss?" Zhong Ming thought about it and understood. This woman regarded herself as a servant of the imaginary big boss's family.

Zhong Ming felt amused, but he certainly wouldn't tell her the truth.

He humphed ambiguously, "Are you okay? If not, get out of the way!"

Luo Shuyu took it as his tacit agreement and was overjoyed. "Young Master, I'm from the Mao family in the city, the brother-in-law of our county magistrate! Our young master has always admired your eldest master! How about you do me the honor of visiting our home? If I go, I don't know how happy our young master will be! He will definitely treat me as a guest of honor!"

Zhang Ma and He Xiang's eyes also lit up, and they happily agreed and tried to please the people.

I've been suffering a lot during this period of time, but today is my chance to change!

As long as we can accomplish this great thing, it will be better than anything else!

Without the support of the mysterious boss, what would the Zhao family be?

At this moment, Zhong Ming could only be thankful that there was actually no "mysterious boss", otherwise it would be hard to say whether this boss would change his mind.

"I'm busy, get out of here!"

"Master, we—"

"roll!"

Zhong Ming shouted coldly and drove away with his two brothers.

The carriage was moving briskly, and Luo Shuyu was calling out "Master! Master!" from behind, but he ran after it for a few steps before he ran out of options.

The master and his servant watched helplessly, feeling anxious, angry and annoyed.

"What kind of person is this! Why is a servant so arrogant?"

Aunt Zhang said hurriedly, "I think we should go back and tell the young master about this."

"Yes, let's go back now."

Luo Shuyu didn't want to stay any longer. There would be no progress if he stayed any longer, so he might as well take this opportunity to go back.

After the three of them returned, Luo Shuyu couldn't wait to tell Mao Dexing about this matter. Mao Dexing immediately asked people to inquire in the city and then sent people to chase in the direction of the provincial capital at full speed.

"You're so useless. You can't even stop a servant!"

Luo Shuyu smiled and apologized, not daring to refute.

However, Mao Dexing cursed her a few times to vent his anger but he didn't really blame her. She was a subordinate of the big boss, so it was normal for her to have a somewhat arrogant temper.

The more he thought about it, the more he, like Luo Shuyu, believed it.

Mao Dexing naturally couldn't find Zhong Ming and the others, and all his efforts were in vain. He was so angry.

He was both angry and itchy, and he wanted to break into the Zhao family and interrogate them.

He knew that he couldn't control the Zhao family, so he managed to hold back with great difficulty.

Luo Shuyu and his servant suddenly left the village. Although Zhao Liya and the others were a little surprised, they were still very happy.

It’s better to leave, so as to avoid being buzzed like a fly.

It won't hurt anyone, but it will annoy people.

All the wasteland has been reclaimed, even the one next to Yan Village.

It is not a suitable time to plant anything at this time, but the sugarcane, potatoes, sweet potatoes, soybeans, peanuts, etc. that are planted are all thriving.

It's a rare opportunity to have some free time, so everyone can relax by hunting and fishing.

On this day, everyone went to the mountain stream to catch fish. The environment in the stream was quiet and the water was all mountain spring water that originated not far away. The fish and shrimp raised there were also particularly delicious.

At the end of the day, they harvested a lot of shrimps, various fish, and turtles. Lin Mo also hunted two fat pheasants, which would be just enough for a delicious meal in the evening.

Unexpectedly, when they returned home, they saw Hu Ling's parents, Uncle Hu and Aunt Hu, who had come, and everyone was very happy.

Hu Ling kowtowed to his parents happily, and Zhao Xiang ordered Zhao Liya and her two siblings to come forward and kowtow as well.

Hu Ling and Aunt Hu had obviously cried when they met their old master, and their eyes were red. Seeing this, they quickly grabbed Zhao Liya and her siblings.

"Oh, I don't deserve this! How can we ask the young lady, the young master, and the second young lady to kowtow to us? It's so embarrassing!"

Zhao Liya bowed deeply and saluted. "Uncle Hu, Aunt Hu, you two are worthy of being here. If I hadn't come along, we wouldn't know how much more trouble we would have been in! With me here, no one dares to mess with us. There's no need for young ladies or young masters. You two can just call me Xiaoya, and call your younger brother and sister Xiang'er and Lin'er. From now on, we'll be your nephews and nieces!"

Zhao Xiang and Deng were delighted, nodding their heads in agreement and saying with a smile, "Yes, that's right!" "Ya'er is right, we'll be a family from now on!"
