Take the supermarket across to the deserted road

Da Ya is still a child in her teens, her face is a bit immature, but the expression on her little face is extremely firm, "Da Ya is not afraid, she will protect the young master and young lady with her life."

She positioned herself as taking care of her cousins.

Looking at the immature little girl, Yanyan's eyes became gentle.

"Da Ya, are you voluntary?"

The eldest girl nodded, "Yes, I suggested it. Originally, my mother didn't want to take me with me. When I grow up, I can repay the eldest lady."

She didn't forget that it was because of who their family is today.

She also knew that relying on the young lady, their family would be better off, and their younger siblings would be successful.

Taking advantage of the fact that there is no one around the eldest lady, this is the best opportunity.

"Miss, please keep me." Da Ya kowtowed again.

Yanyan was a little embarrassed, she didn't want to use child labor, and she was the cousin of the two children.

Ning Yuan glanced at Daniu and turned his eyes.

"Yanyan, Daniel is a man after all, there are many things that are inconvenient, why not leave his wife behind. Besides, they are husband and wife anyway, so it's not good to be separated for such a long time."

Only then did Yanyan realize that she had neglected this question.

"You're still thoughtful, so let sister-in-law stay."

"Miss Xie, you can just call me Xiuqin from now on." Da Niu's daughter-in-law was very happy to be kept.

Da Ya looked at her mother enviously, with some disappointment in her eyes.

Er Niu is also envious, but he has to take care of the entire Song family and cannot act willfully.

"Sister-in-law, get up."

Yanyan helped him up, and then gave Daniu 1000 taels, telling him to settle down his family, buy a few acres of land, open a shop or something, and stop going to the mine.

Daniu didn't want to take the money, Yanyan told him not to refuse, just treat it as their husband and wife's wages for the next 20 years.

At this time, the guard stepped forward to report.

"Master, City Lord Liang is asking to see you, and with him is the manager of the mine."

Song Yan hummed and asked someone to come in.

When he heard that the city lord had arrived, Uncle Song was a little cautious, "Miss, let's go first."

Ning Yuan stopped him, "Don't worry, let's see how the city lord handles this matter."

Uncle Song's family is very nervous, but their hearts have settled down. Is this the feeling of having someone to rely on and support?
Soon City Lord Liang walked in with a man in his early forties.

"I have seen Lord Song Hou."

"Cao Min Liang Si, I have met Lord Hou."

The city lord bent down to salute, while Liang Si knelt down and kowtowed, looking a little uneasy.

Song Yan didn't make a sound, but sat in the first place, picked up the teacup and drank slowly.

The room was quiet for a while, and the atmosphere gradually became dignified from the relaxed before.

Without Master Hou's permission, one of the two bent down, the other knelt and touched the ground with their head, not daring to move.

City Lord Liang's heart began to sink. He knew that Master Hou was angry, otherwise he would not punish him in this way.

Kickbacks are very common, is it because of fights?
From the corner of his eye, he sneaked a glance at Song Daniu's family, thinking of their surnames, his heart skipped a beat.

Oops.

His face turned pale instantly, sweat broke out on his forehead, and then he knelt down with a plop.

"Song Houye's atonement is due to the momentary negligence of the subordinate officials, allowing these people to take advantage of their positions to suppress and bully the miners, and receive a lot of benefits from it. It is the dereliction of duty of the subordinate officials. I also ask Song Houye to show mercy. The subordinate officials will definitely control and crack down. It will never happen again.”

Liang Si next to him was dumbfounded, what's going on?
Shouldn't these words be said by him?Put the blame on his subordinates, and when the city lord speaks good words for himself, the matter will be over, and they will have nothing to lose.

Why did you suddenly change your mind?

Also, if the city lord said these words, the one who bears the blame is him?

Liang Si was startled, and he was dumbfounded.

Song Yan put down the teacup and nodded in relief.

"City Lord Liang, I won't pursue this matter whether you are negligent or for other reasons. I don't need me to teach you what to do, right? You only have one chance, you can grasp it yourself."

City Lord Liang immediately said seriously, "I will definitely live up to Lord Hou's expectations."

Song Yan glanced at him and continued drinking tea.

City Lord Liang rolled his eyes and didn't let him get up, which meant that Master Hou was not satisfied with his answer.

He glanced at the people around him and scolded severely.

"Liang Si, you have wasted my trust in you and used your status to make your servants rob and beat the miners. It is really abominable. Someone came here to put Liang Si in prison and sent someone to confiscate his home. "

"Yes, my lord."

Two yamen servants came in from outside and carried Liang Si out.

Although Liang Si was dumbfounded, he was not stupid. Even if he became a scapegoat, he would not be able to confess to his clan uncle, the City Lord Liang.

He was taken away with a look of regret and guilt.

City Lord Liang waited for a while, why didn't Song Hou Ye say anything?Could it be that he was asked to admit his mistake, but didn't he say that he would not pursue his problem before?
He didn't know what to do, and secretly looked up at the person opposite.

I saw that the other party concentrated on drinking tea, and didn't pay attention to him at all.

He frowned suspiciously, turned his head and glanced at Ning Yuan, who might be the other party's nephew, and begged him for advice.

Ning Yuan took his chin and pointed in one direction, stretched out his hand and gestured with the word two.

City Lord Liang looked along, and it was Song Daniu's family.

Make him apologize?What does that two mean?
He frowned in thought, suddenly his eyes lit up, and then he said loudly.

"Reporting to Lord Song, the task at the mine is very heavy, and stewardship is indispensable, and the subordinate officials have to manage the affairs of the entire city, so they have no skills at all. So I want to recommend someone to be the new steward, and I also invite Lord Song Grace."

This time Song Yan finally spoke up, "Oh? Who does City Lord Liang want to recommend?"

City Lord Liang pointed to Song Erniu, "It's him, the Erniu of the Song family. He is young and promising, he is upright and clear, and he is suitable for the post of steward."

"I?"

Song Erniu pointed to his nose in disbelief, thinking he heard it wrong.

Uncle Song's family was also confused. Did they have hearing problems?It's fine if City Lord Liang doesn't bother them, but he still let the second child be the steward of the mine?

City Lord Liang nodded vigorously, "Yes, it's you, I think you are very suitable."

Song Erniu asked stupidly, "Why not my elder brother?"

Obviously big brother is more suitable than him.

City Lord Liang wanted to roll his eyes, but he didn't know why it wasn't Song Daniu, didn't the young master make a gesture?
Song Yan nodded in satisfaction, and looked at Song Erniu with a warm attitude.

"Since City Lord Liang recommended it, Er Niu, you should be the steward of the mine. In the future, if you don't understand anything, you should ask Mr. Liang for advice."

"Huh? Oh, yes, yes."

Song Erniu's reaction was dumbfounded. His response was not like facing Lord Hou, but relatives and elders of the family.

City Lord Liang thought, Song Daniu and the others are indeed members of the Song family, even if their temperament and dress do not look like their own family, at least they are members of the same family with a good relationship, otherwise why would they talk to Lord Song like this?
Think further.
