Chapter 1059 The Disposal of the Zhang Family

In this way, Lady Zhang escaped a calamity.

They were still fined a little money, but even so, they were quite frightened this time.

Furthermore, since Zhang Maolin was punished, given his temperament, he will surely blame the county magistrate for not protecting him when he returns, which will definitely damage the relationship between the siblings.

Furthermore, news of today's events should soon reach the capital of Dong'an Prefecture. Those who fawn over County Princess Zhang will likely show her less 'respect' once they hear about it.

The Lu family felt very relieved after hearing this. They thought Zhang Maolin deserved a good beating for daring to make a move on A Yu. He was dreaming.

Shu Yu was also happy, but her mind was preoccupied with other matters, which somewhat dampened her joy.

Even at dinner time, she didn't eat much.

Knowing that she was thinking about Meng Yunzheng, everyone deliberately brought up other things to distract her.

There were still many people in the Lu family. This time, not only the eldest and third wives' families, but also Si Xing's family and Cuihua's family of three were there.

Now that the housewarming party is over, Lu Erbai plans to gather a team and start opening a shop for renovations.

“I’ve already talked to Brother Zheng and Wangsheng about opening a shop. When there’s work, we’ll hire people to repair houses, and when there’s no work, we’ll do carpentry in the shop, making chests and cabinets. A lot of people saw our wardrobe today, and several people have already contacted me.”

Lu Sanzhu quickly said, "Second Brother, you have to fix our house first, we need to move in as soon as possible."

Speaking of this, Shu Yu thought of what Ding Yuehua had said to him during the day, and immediately looked up. "Dad, there's also Yuehua. She also bought a house here on Fenghuai Street, but the original owner will not move out for another half month. When the house is vacant, Yuehua said she would also ask you to help repair it."

Lu Erbai's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Well, Young Master Fan should come to talk to you about the specifics later."

Lu Erbai was very happy, and Lu Dasong laughed heartily, "It seems that even before the shop has opened, the second brother's business has already come knocking on our door."

Li glanced at him sideways, wondering what he had to be happy about, since it wasn't him who made the money.

Lu Dasong didn't see his wife's expression, but Cuihua did.

She hesitated for a moment, her right hand accidentally touched by her son. She suddenly took a deep breath and looked at Lu Erbai, "Second Uncle, could you bring Jin Hai with you on your repair team?"

Lu Erbai was taken aback, "Jin Hai?"

He looked at Lai Jinhai, who exchanged a glance with Cuihua, stood up, and said with a slight nervousness, "Second Uncle, you know my family's situation. I occasionally find some odd jobs in town. I'm still strong, and I won't slack off. If you need to hire someone, what do you think of me?"

Lu Erbai still liked Lai Jinhai very much; this nephew-in-law was a man of few words but hardworking.

When this mansion was being renovated, he not only didn't take advantage of his connections to slack off, but he also worked extra hard for fear of being gossiped about.

He knew about the Lai family's situation; the whole family relied on the town's pastry shop for their livelihood.

Things were fine before, but as the younger generation of the Lai family were born one after another, not only was there not enough housing, but food and drink also became a struggle.

When Lu Erbai wanted to build a team, he sought out trustworthy people.

Moreover, the only person he could find in a short time was a friend from Shangshi Village, and Lai Jinhai was indeed a good candidate.

"Okay, if you don't mind the hardship, then come on over."
