Chapter 932 Someone is blocking the way
Shu Yu looked at the man. Just now, he seemed to have introduced himself as He Ping, a brother who had a good relationship with his father.
Shu Yu smiled and said, "Uncle He, you're too kind. Actually, we're not at a loss. Although it's a package deal with food and lodging, you don't have to go back early, so the working time will definitely be longer. In addition, the mansion we're repairing is more elaborate than ordinary houses, so hard work is inevitable. This kind of treatment is reasonable."
Upon hearing this, the group exchanged glances, but still felt that this was a favor done for them.
Fan Zhong, standing to the side, made the final decision, "Alright, stop dawdling. Just remember that Lu Xiangjun is taking care of you. If you need anything in the future, helping her out is the best thing you can do."
His son is also working in the team, how can he lower his wages? Is he stupid?
Shu Yu glanced at him discreetly, then turned to the others and explained the situation of the house, such as who was responsible for their meals and their accommodation, in addition to the people recruited in the county town.
After saying that, we can disperse. "That's settled then. Uncles, go back and pack your things. The house repairs will probably take about a month, so you won't be back for a while."
"Okay, okay, then let's head back now and go to the county town first thing tomorrow morning."
One by one, the people came out of the door.
Seeing that it was getting late, Fan Zhong invited Shu Yu to his home for dinner, saying, "My wife has already prepared the meal. It's rare for Lu Xiangjun to come back, and he hasn't visited my home yet."
Shu Yu looked at her uncle's cold stove and empty pots. Just now, Li Shi was so excited that she completely forgot to cook.
Shu Yu thought that Fan Zhong had invited her several times, so she took the opportunity to go to his house for a visit.
When they returned after dinner, Li's brothers from her maternal family happened to arrive.
Erniu went to Liang's parents' home, but didn't come back with them.
As soon as the Li brothers arrived, Shu Yu learned about their situation and finally decided on the eldest son of the eldest Li brother and the second son of the Li brother, so that the uncle and nephew could keep each other company.
It was still early, and since the two brothers were already there, they decided to help Lu Dasong finish the work in the fields before heading back.
Even Shu Yu had to admit that the old lady had good taste; apart from Li Shi, that crooked tree, everyone else in the Li family was impeccable.
It's really strange. My uncle's brothers and sisters are all quite nice, but it seems that my aunt is the only one who's different.
Later that evening, Erniu returned, accompanied by Liang's younger brother.
The Liang family decided to send someone, but both he and the Li brothers claimed they wouldn't ask for wages.
Shu Yu would definitely not agree; they need to make a living too, don't they? Besides, neither her aunt nor her third aunt would be happy about this.
With the recruitment matter settled, Shu Yu then inquired about the repair of the ancestral graves.
Lu Dasong said that a date had been chosen, but the time was set for a month later. At that time, the work in the fields would not be so urgent, and the villagers could take two days to finish the repairs quickly.
Shu Yu nodded and left Lu Dasong some money for repairs.
When Li saw the silver, her eyes lit up.
However, Lu Dasong said to Shu Yu very solemnly, "Don't worry, this is money for repairing the ancestral graves. Your uncle will definitely not misuse it. He will write down every penny and return any excess to you."
Shu Yu simply smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle."
They then left Shangshi Village with Yingxi, but were stopped by someone as soon as they left the village.
