That night, not only Zhao Dashu and his family had trouble sleeping, but Zhuang Ziyi's servants had even more trouble sleeping.
I'm afraid that after a few days, they will hardly gain the master's trust?
These bad apples messed up all of them, but they were loyal to their master.
The next day, Zhao Xiaoyu announced the punishment for these people and said that she would not be influenced by the unfaithful people and would not doubt them from now on. Everyone continued to live as usual.
But, everyone knows that the bottom line is still different.
First, they didn't expect their master to punish those people so severely. Second, it was impossible for their master to have no grudges and treat them the same way as before.
They must be more careful in serving in the future. Only after Cuizhu beat them to death did they realize that they had lived too comfortably in the past few years. They had forgotten that they were just servants and that their lives were in the hands of their masters.
The matter came to an end, and Zhao Xiaoyu ignored the rest and Xiao Lei took care of it.
There was no one left around Lihua, and the people selected by the three farms were also sold.
Fortunately, they didn't know how they made money, and the people in the workshop were kept in captivity. Zhao Xiaoyu was afraid that someone might leak the information, so she kept a close eye on it.
After dealing with family matters, Song took Xiaoyu to her grandfather's house, while Zhao Dashu went to the Qian family to discuss the engagement.
Xiao Lei can't stay in the village any longer, studying is important.
"Big tree?"
"Grandpa, I wanted to come and discuss the engagement with you yesterday. Also, our family is planning to move to the prefectural capital. I was wondering if you would stay in the county town, or move with us?"
My daughter said that they shouldn't let others give up their two-year foundation with just one sentence. If the boy from the Qian family plans to stay in the county, it's fine. They can live together after getting married.
After all, it's just marrying into the wife's family, not finding a husband to raise a child.
Mr. Qian was also a straightforward person. "Lai Fu and I have already discussed this matter. We plan to go to the provincial capital with you. Recently, the shops in the county town have been posted for sale, and no one wants to clear out the inventory.
After arriving in the county seat, he continued to study and do business at the same time. He said he had little interest in officialdom.
Zhao Dashu was overjoyed, "That's great, grandpa is so nice, we can meet every day in the future, and I will take you fishing and strolling." Although he was just an old man, Zhao Dashu was still happy, because he had a companion for strolling in the future.
Infected by him, the old man was also happy.
"Of course. When we go to the capital, we can still be companions. But Dashu, I might need you to find a live-in tutor for Laifu.
You know I can’t read, so I don’t know whether the teacher is good or bad.”
"That's no problem. The capital city has the most intellectuals. We can just find a poor intellectual when the time comes.
I'm planning to go to the temple to inquire about the engagement date. How about we go together tomorrow?"
Zhao Dashu respected the old man and was willing to put him first and discuss things with him. It was not easy for him to raise his grandson alone over the years.
"Okay, the last time I was there was twenty years ago. What time is it? How do I get there?"
"How about I pick you up someday and we can go together."
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home."
The engagement talks went very smoothly, and Zhao Dashu felt so happy when he returned home.
Things were going so smoothly. Apart from a few troubles at home, everything he did seemed to go smoothly in the past few years.
A daughter brings him good luck!
Once the date is confirmed, he can send out invitations.
