Chapter 1208 Asking for Leave
Liu Baozhu nodded after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, then he stood up and said to Wang Youliang: "Foreman Wang, the ox carts in the village will be back at two o'clock, so Xiaoxiao and I will leave first."
After hearing what Liu Baozhu said, Wang Youliang looked at the time and saw that it was already half past one, so he nodded and said, "I'll take you there."
"Don't bother. Xiaoxiao and I know the way."
"Sister Xiaoxiao, are you leaving?" Youzi asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Yeah, if you want to play with me, ask your dad to take you to the construction site."
"Okay, I'll go play with Sister Xiaoxiao tomorrow."
After leaving Wang Youliang's house, Lu Xiaoxiao and Liu Baozhu walked quickly towards the entrance of the county town. The compound was quite far from the entrance of the county town, and it would take about twenty minutes to walk there. If they didn't walk quickly, they would miss the ox cart.
"You're back. I thought you two were not going back to the village today." Liu Jianguo said after seeing Lu Xiaoxiao and Liu Baozhu.
"I came out late, so I'm here just now." Liu Baozhu said after hearing what Liu Jianguo said.
"Hurry up and get on the bullock cart. We are going back to the village."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao returned home, she looked at the time and saw that it was just past three o'clock. She planned to go to the captain's house. She would be leaving for Yun Province next week, so she had to say hello to the captain in advance.
"Knock, knock, knock...knock, knock...is anyone home?"
"Yes, I'll be there to open the door right away." Aunt Cauliflower spoke immediately after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words.
"Aunt Caihua, is the captain at home?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Aunt Caihua after she opened the gate.
"He's at home. He and Baozhu are talking in the main room. Come in."
After hearing what Aunt Caihua said, Lu Xiaoxiao followed Aunt Caihua into the main hall, and then she said to the captain: "Captain, I want to ask you for some leave."
"What happened? Why do you need such a long leave?" the captain asked after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said.
"I need to go to Yun Province for something."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the captain did not continue asking. He knew that Lu Xiaoxiao had many secrets, and sometimes it is not a good thing for people to know too much.
"How long do you need to take off this time?"
"Two months minimum. If things go well, I'll come back earlier."
"When do you leave? Is there anyone going with you?"
"I will leave when the food processing plant is completed. My brother will go with me. I came to you today to tell you something in advance."
"You came to me the day before you left to ask for a letter of introduction."
"Okay, then I'll go back first." After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she walked out of the house.
"Dad, why did you agree to let Lu Xiaoxiao go to Yun Province? It's still two months. Aren't you afraid that something might happen to Lu Xiaoxiao in Yun Province?" Liu Baozhu said to the captain.
"Do you think Lu Xiaoxiao won't go if I don't agree? As long as Lu Xiaoxiao wants to go to Yun Province, Lu Xiaoxiao's brother can get the county to issue her a letter of introduction with just one word."
"I'm just worried that Lu Xiaoxiao will bring trouble to Dad. If something happens to Lu Xiaoxiao on the way to Yun Province, Dad will definitely be implicated."
"Don't worry, Lu Xiaoxiao won't necessarily be in trouble if something happens to you. Lu Xiaoxiao is very capable, and Lu Xiaoxiao's brother is going with her, so Lu Xiaoxiao won't get hurt when she goes to Yun Province."
Although Liu Baozhu was still a little worried after hearing the captain's words, he didn't say anything else because nothing he said would change the fact that Lu Xiaoxiao was going to Yun Province.
