Chapter 244

The person who came was Lin Liu, followed by a little tail - Su Xin.

As soon as Su Xin saw Liu Qingluo, her eye circles turned red. She first knelt down and kowtowed to her, then got up and pulled the corner of her clothes and cried: "Girl, have you forgotten about Su Xin? Don't let Su Xin know..."

Qing Luo exaggerated: "How could I forget you?"

Su Xin was pleasantly surprised: "Really?"

Qingluo nodded immediately: "Your cooking is so delicious, I just want to forget it, and my stomach won't agree!"

Su Xin: "..."

"Haha, I'm teasing you!" Qing Luo pinched her chubby face and asked, "What are you doing here?"

It was only now that Lin Liu had the opportunity to speak: "That's right, the second master sent me a letter asking me to send a driver to Miss, so I'm here."

Liu Qingluo: "When did you become a coachman?"

"Originally, I was going back to Beijing to do some business, so I just dropped by. Besides, I don't worry about sending someone else. Well, the second master is also worried."

Lin Liu also added that it was obviously intentional.

Su Xin pursed her lips and laughed.

Liu Qingluo just pretended not to hear.Since Lin Liu came to drive the car, it would be great.

After having lunch at noon that day, she finished packing up, explained what was due, and set off for the capital with Lin Liu and Su Xin.

Originally, she didn't want to take Su Xin with her, but Lin Liu insisted. He said that she needed someone to take care of her along the way.

Although he and Qingluo are masters and servants, men and women are different after all, it is better to bring a maid to accompany her.

Qingluo knew that both Lin Si and Lin Liu belonged to that kind of character, loyal to Lin Jinyu, but very rigid and dogmatic.

She couldn't hold him back, and Su Xin begged from the side with tears in her eyes, so she had no choice but to agree.

A group of three left Beiqiao Village in a carriage. Not only Liu Heping, Wen Quan and his wife, but Li Zheng also brought her three sons to see her off at the entrance of the village.

He also took a lot of snacks and bacon, and insisted on taking Qingluo with him.

This puzzles many people.

When did Master Lizheng have such a good relationship with Mr. Liu?

After sending Liu Qingluo away, the canal-digging campaign in Beiqiao Village also started vigorously.

Liu Heping had been an apprentice with the old master for a few days when he was young, and he knew these projects fairly well. In addition, Qingluo had been supplementing him with water conservancy knowledge in the past two days, so Lizheng asked him to be the little leader of the canal digging team.

And his first task is to recruit workers.

There are so many middle-aged men in the village, most of them want to earn this wage.

Working at the door of the house, doing it for yourself, and getting paid, is a job that everyone covets.

However, the number of people used to dig the canal is limited, and the fee charged is low. If there are too many people, the wages will not be able to keep up.

Before Qingluo left, she had already thought of a way for them, and adopted the method of registration and selection.

Anyone who is willing to participate can go to Lizheng to sign up.

But whether he can be selected depends on Liu Heping's inspection.

Although Li Zheng could read and write, he hadn't farmed much after all.Which man in the village is willing to work hard, work meticulously, and be honest, all of which need to be checked by Liu Heping.

In this way, Liu Heping suddenly had a little power in his hands.

For him, this has never happened before.Those who wanted to dig canals for wages would go to his house one after another to build relationships, and even bring some food to him.

Liu Heping has been honest all his life, and he has never seen such a battle. He is too embarrassed to refuse others, and he is unwilling to let people go through the back door.

Those who were selected were naturally happy, but those who were originally lazy and greedy for cheap were angry when they were rejected, saying that they were all from the village.

It made Liu Heping miserable.

In the end, Mrs. Du went out and stood at the door with his waist pinched, cursing at the whole village all morning.

"Sneaking and cheating one by one, heartless things!"

"Those bastards who were not selected and spread rumors! Everyone in the village and outside the village knows what kind of people you are!"

"My old lady advises you to calm down, don't ask me to name names and scold you badly!"

"There are also those who want to ask for names with a few scraps, you are really shameless! You think our family is missing your rags! I advise you to be honest and stop thinking about it as soon as possible!"

"..."

Her voice was already high and clear, and the whole village could hear her scolding clearly from beginning to end.

As a result, the people who ran towards Liu's house in an endless stream finally disappeared.

And Liu Heping also selected [-] people who could work steadily, and waited to start work the next day.

Unexpectedly, the afternoon before the start of work, Mr. Liu and Uncle Liu came to the door.

Mr. Liu was jealous that the village could earn wages, so he dragged Fourth Uncle Liu to sign up.

He thought there was nothing wrong with it, but Li Zheng told him that he was too old and Fourth Uncle Liu was too lazy, neither of which was good.

When Mr. Liu was about to give up, he learned that the person selected was actually his eldest son Liu Heping, and he became angry on the spot.

"My own son, isn't that a matter of one sentence?!"

He dragged Fourth Uncle Liu to the door.

Everyone in the village knew about the grievances between the Liu family's old house and the boss Liu, and Mrs. Du had just scolded the street, so everyone watched with the mentality of watching a good show.

Didn't he, Liu Heping, say that he would never show favoritism?
Now his own father and younger brother came to see him, to see what he would do!
Liu Heping was studying the drawings left by Qing Luo with Wen Quan, when he heard the commotion outside, he hurried out.

Mr. Liu dragged Fourth Uncle Liu to sit at the gate of their house, smoking a pipe, and said slowly: "What's the matter, now that you're promising, you don't even recognize your parents?"

Liu Heping hurriedly said: "What are you talking about, dad, please sit in the room, and the fourth brother will also come in."

Fourth Uncle Liu looked at him with a sad face.

He was born lazy, and he was spoiled by Mrs. Liu since he was a child, so how could he suffer the pain of digging a canal.

But Mr. Liu was jealous of the salary, so he insisted on forcing him to come here.He also has no choice.

Seeing his eldest brother at this moment, he wished he could turn around and run back!
How embarrassing!

"Hmph, I can't afford to sit in that high-walled courtyard of yours!" Mr. Liu took a few puffs of his cigarette, taunted his son, and continued, "I'll just ask you, do you still recognize me?" This dear father?"

Liu Heping said helplessly: "How could my son not recognize you? What's wrong with you?"

"What's the matter?!" Mr. Liu glared and scolded, "You're an oblivious thing! Now that so many people in the village can dig canals to earn money, why don't you let your father and your younger brother go, instead let those who don't Related people earn?"

"Father, it's...it's not that I don't let you go! It's because you are old and don't meet the requirements!"

"Damn your mother!" Mr. Liu scolded, "What's the condition, isn't it just digging a ditch with a shovel? Your father and I are not too old to move!"
