Liu carefully used everyone, not even daring to let them know what they were doing.
Liu Gui came soon, and this time it was still Nanny Liu who was guarding the door, the voice in the room was very soft, even if she listened attentively, she could only hear a few words.
But Nanny Liu didn't want to hear it, she would go a little further, sit directly outside the railing, and then stare at the blooming flowers in the yard in a daze, so that she wouldn't hear the voices inside.
"... The younger one led people to carefully search for places where things might be hidden along the way, but they couldn't find anything. Recently, we go into the mountains every day and start searching the land, planning to turn over bit by bit."
"How long will that take?"
"I don't know." Liu Gui lowered his head and said, "Mianshan Mountain is very big, and there are many densely wooded places in it. Even people can't get down there, so this search is very slow."
What Liu Gui didn't say was that finding a bag of things in this mountain is more difficult than touching a drop of water in a big river, and it's possible that you won't be able to find it in your whole life.
Liu closed her eyes and said, "I see, you just do your best."
"Yes." Liu Gui stepped back quietly.
Grandma Liu laughed when she saw him, and sent him out personally, "It's too hot, don't always bask in the sun outside, take a walk under the tree more..."
Liu Gui responded, and also cared about his mother, "You are not too young, you just came back from Yizhou with the old lady, you have to take a good rest."
"I know, I know, I didn't do anything by the old lady's side, just holding tea, and I have a little girl to serve me, so where can I go so hard?" Liu Mama looked at his face and said: " But you, why do I see that you are darker than when you were in the first day of junior high school?"
Liu Gui laughed silly.
Nanny Liu was very worried, "It's only been a few days and you've become so dark..."
Mother Liu sent Liu Gui to the gate of the courtyard, and ran into the three children head-on. The two couldn't help but pause. Bai Shanbao had already seen Liu Gui, rubbed his eyes, and ran over to stare at him Asked with a straight face, "Isn't this Uncle Liu Gui? When did you come to the house?"
Liu Gui smiled and said: "Master, you forgot, I came here years ago, and now I am in charge of the land behind."
"Ah? You leave the big farm at home, how can you take care of these few acres of small land?" And it was silent. You must know that Bai Shanbao and Liu Gui were the best before the big auspiciousness.
He looked at Liu Gui suspiciously, "You didn't make a mistake, did you?"
Liu Gui's face froze.
When Bai Shanbao saw it, he thought he was embarrassed to admit it.
He sighed and said, "What mistake did you make, do you want me to intercede with grandma for you?"
"No, no need," Liu Gui said hastily, "Master, I just don't want to part with the old lady and you, and my mother is here too, there is nothing wrong with being here, I usually plant the land and run errands for the old lady."
Bai Shanbao rolled his eyes and said, "What if I want you to come here and you come to be the head of my village?"
Man Bao, who was just standing on the sidelines in a daze, was unhappy when he heard this. How could he change the head of the village casually
So he stretched out his hand and tugged at the corner of Bai Shanbao's clothes, Bai Erlang was not very happy either, he played quite well with Bai Zhuangtou, so he didn't want to change people.
And this Liu Gui looked fierce at first glance, he didn't like it.
Bai Shanbao also reacted, frowning in distress.
Liu Gui smiled and refused, saying: "The young man in Bai Zhuang Tou also knows that he is honest as Zhuang Tou, and he was given to the young master by the old lady, how can the young master change it without going through the old lady?"
Bai Shanbao rubbed the back of his head and smiled, a little embarrassed.
He watched Liu Gui and Nanny Liu walk away with some regret, "Uncle Liu Gui is very powerful, he can do anything, I was bullied in Longzhou, and he helped me find my place many times."
After finishing speaking, he glanced at Man Bao, meaning, you will regret it if you don't use him.
But Man Bao said: "But Bai Zhuangtou did nothing wrong. You suddenly replaced him, how sad he is, and what should I do if the long-term workers in the village don't accept it?"
She said: "As long as I take the lead in my family's affairs, my father is called Big Brother and my mother is called Big Sister. I will never let my second brother and second sister-in-law go past Big Brother and Big Sister. My mother said, that's the only way, Only my elder brother and sister-in-law can instruct and mobilize people in the family."
Bai Shanbao was amazed, he didn't expect their family to be so small and so particular.
But Man Bao said: "For example, my fourth brother doesn't like to listen to my second brother, and my fifth and sixth brothers don't like to listen to my fourth brother either."
The three of them went to visit Mrs. Liu in the main courtyard while they were talking. Mrs. Liu took the three children to look and look at them strangely, and then said: "You guys go to rest first, wake up and have some snacks before going to class. School is over in the afternoon. Come home again, and I will let the kitchen prepare delicious food for you."
Man Bao agreed first, but in fact she told Bai Shanbao after school in the afternoon and ran home.
With such a big incident happening at home, she must go home and have a look.
But after an afternoon, the emotions of Lao Zhou's family have stabilized, and Lao Zhou has even received a signed guarantee letter.
He discussed it with Mrs. Qian, and decided that he still had to buy a coffin. He said in a low voice, "At that time, we will take out their bones overnight and put them away. We only say that they will put clothes."
Mrs. Qian nodded and asked, "Then throwing pots and banners..."
Old Zhou Tou thought for a while and said: "Let Lao Liu go, he is the youngest, why don't you discuss it with the boss and the elders, if they agree, let Da Tou go, Man Bao also put on filial piety..."
Old Zhou Tou's voice was barely audible, "In the future, Erlang's sacrificial sweep must be done by Datou..."
He is the eldest grandson of the big house, and Man Bao is always going to get married.
Mrs. Qian thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask the boss."
Of course Zhou Dalang had no objection, he also said: "He saved the life of the big head, as it should have been."
Little Qian also nodded.
The matter was settled like this. When Man Bao came back, old Zhou Tou was worrying about the food at home. As soon as he saw her coming back, he immediately waved her to come over, "Man Bao, the young master of the Bai family has left Have you sold those three sacks of wheat?"
"No, dad, what's the matter with you?"
"Oh, it's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have it," the old Zhou said with a smile: "There are important things to do at home, and many people will come to eat at home, so the food at home is not enough. I plan to take the remaining three bags of wheat. Bought it."
Old Zhou smiled gently at his daughter, "Man Bao, go and ask the young master, what is the price of grain outside now? If it is cheaper, can you sell it to us at a lower price? The summer grain is coming down soon. Thirty cents a bucket is too expensive."
