Chapter 252 How to talk to Dad!
Liu Mao had no intention of hiding this matter, so when she pressed him on the matter, he told her the truth.
"I took them to meet the big brother of Qinghuan Street. For the sake of the big brother, they won't take your money."
“…”
Just a few words made Sang Yu's mind race, and he almost vomited blood as he was thinking about how to reasonably solve this problem.
Is it that simple?
wrong.
She frowned and looked at Liu Mao: "Then what are you going to do to help that big brother?"
There is no such thing as a free lunch, nor is there any kindness without reason. Since the underworld boss is willing to help, Liu Mao must also give a corresponding reward.
Unexpectedly, she was so keenly aware of this. Liu Mao, who had intended to cover up the matter, was caught off guard and was unable to answer.
Seeing him open his mouth but not saying anything, Sang Yu's face turned cold. She didn't like people who made decisions for her without her permission.
"If it's a life-threatening condition, you can refuse it. It's not that I can't afford a hundred coins a day, but I don't need to risk your life."
The anger on her face was so obvious that Liu Mao panicked and shook his head repeatedly: "No, it's not a life-threatening condition. He just wants me to help deliver a shipment to Qinzhou."
"Delivery? Qinzhou?" Sang Yu was stunned, but his brows furrowed even tighter.
"What is it? Is the road dangerous? When can you come back?"
Liu Mao is the gold medal thug she has reserved, and she can't let him get into trouble just to save some protection fees.
"A batch of fine official kiln porcelain is being sent to Qinzhou for sale overseas. It's mostly on official roads, so it's not dangerous. The main concern is encountering bandits. The round trip will probably take over a month."
Liu Mao answered them one by one.
"Let's put this matter off. We will pay the money as usual." Sang Yu rejected this matter very decisively.
Liu Mao was puzzled: "Why? It's not dangerous."
Sang Yu sneered: "Oh, not dangerous? If you really go, it's still a question whether you can come back with an intact body."
Official kiln porcelain, official roads, and sold overseas, these three words put together, no matter how you look at it, it should be a serious job that requires government troops to escort.
However, it fell on a person who used to be in the gray area, and it was a task assigned to him by a big brother in the underworld. There was something wrong no matter how you looked at it.
"If you still want to give your mother a peaceful retirement, then refuse this offer. Otherwise, we can go our separate ways and never have anything to do with each other again."
After saying this, Sang Yu didn't care about Liu Mao's reaction, and called Sang Yongjing and his son and left.
Only Liu Mao was left standing there, frowning in thought.
Sang Yongjing followed Sang Yu while carrying the load, and looked back at Liu Mao from time to time. After a few times, he finally couldn't hold back anymore.
"Yu'er, what did you mean by that? It's just a job of escorting goods. How did it become like this?"
In his opinion, this is obviously a good thing.
Taking on this job would not only save them from having to pay bribes to officials every day, but would also allow them to do things for the government. Maybe one day they would be chosen and given a job in the government. How great would that be.
"Good news?" Sang Yu paused, and Sang Yongjing almost bumped into him before he could stop.
He finally managed to steady himself, and when he looked up he saw Sang Yu looking at him with a sneer.
"Oh, then why don't you go back with Liu Mao... and die."
If this matter could be resolved peacefully without any trouble, she would no longer be named Sang.
"Little sister! How can you talk to Daddy like that?" Sang Xingjia, who had been listening silently, saw that something was wrong and quickly interrupted the tense atmosphere, "We are all family, why can't we talk it out nicely?"
Realizing that what he had just said was indeed too harsh, Sang Yu was silent for a moment before apologizing to Sang Yongjing in a muffled voice: "Dad, I was wrong. I shouldn't have spoken to you like that."
She was really angry, but what Sang Xingjia said was right. They were all family, and no matter how angry she was, she shouldn't vent her anger on her family.
Since she took the initiative to apologize and give way, there was no reason for Sang Yongjing not to back down quickly.
He waved his hands: "It's okay, it's okay. Dad is wrong too. He shouldn't ask questions without knowing anything."
Sang Yu sighed and expressed all her worries and concerns. Then she said, "I don't want Liu Mao to get involved in this mess."
After she said this, Sang Yongjing also sensed something was wrong.
"Yes, for official porcelain and overseas trade, the government should usually send soldiers and officers to escort them along the official roads. How could they let Liu Mao, a commoner, lead them?"
"I don't know what the conspiracy is, but I really don't want him to risk his life for a trivial matter." Sang Yu sighed again.
No matter how she thought about it, this matter seemed wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on what was wrong. She could only sternly tell Liu Mao to reject the matter.
Given their previous friendship, he should carefully consider what he said and refuse the job.
"Then why didn't you just explain this to him directly?" Sang Xingjia suddenly spoke.
"He asked someone to help us, and in his eyes, this is just a small and easy thing to do. If I really said that, would he believe it or think I'm overthinking it?"
Although the two parties have been cooperating for some time, Sang Yu is not sure how deep Liu Mao's trust in her is.
If she hadn't said it firmly, Liu Mao might have been optimistic and thought that he could get closer to both the black and white worlds after returning from this good mission.
"No wonder you said it so cruelly at that time, little sister." Sang Xingjia suddenly realized, and he said that Sang Yu was definitely not such a heartless person in normal times.
"Forget it, let's go back first. I'll go to the Liu family again tomorrow."
No matter how harsh his words were, Sang Yu was not someone who could be so cruel and heartless. He only planned to go to the Liu family tomorrow to test Liu Mao's attitude.
When I got home, the two children had already finished school and were lying on the eight-immortals table in the main room, drawing something.
Seeing Sang Yu coming back, the two of them immediately dropped what they were holding and came over to greet her.
"Sister, I miss you so much."
Sang Xinghao hasn't said this for a long time.
Sang Yu looked at him with a smile: "Do you miss me or don't want to do your homework?" Don't think that she can't see through his true purpose just because you act coquettishly.
"Hehe, mainly because I miss you." Sang Xinghao smiled foolishly and pretended to be stupid.
Sang Yu looked at Xiao Zhao next to her and asked with a smile, "How was your day at school? Were you bullied?"
Xiao Zhao immediately shook his head and squatted down to write on the ground: "No, the teacher and my classmates treat me very well."
"That's good. If you get bullied, just tell your sister and she will help you fight back." Sang Yu clenched her fists and made a very fierce expression, which made Xiao Zhao smile.
She was not afraid that the teacher would not teach well, but she was afraid that Xiao Zhao would be bullied and would not dare to speak out.
