First Empress Merchant

Chapter 98
Zhou Yang said with a smile when he heard the words: "Since Miss is interested, then I will accept it. It's just you, but you also have a place for yourself?"

Lu Lishi also laughed, "Me? Why did I bother? This whole mountain is mine, and I can live wherever I want! Besides, I have built a small building for Xin'er and Changqing, so I'll take it easy. If you want to live in the mountains, just go to their place and squeeze.”

Zhou Yang thought her tone was quite funny when he heard the first sentence, but the latter sentence made him squint his eyes unconsciously.

Although I know that she and Wu Changqing have a very good relationship, they are brothers and sisters, but they are not related by blood after all, and according to what Situ said, that boy seems to be more than a brother and sister to her, so...

"Sometimes I feel that your brain is very active, but sometimes you feel very dull. You, a sister, ran to grab the house with your younger brother. How does this make your future sister-in-law think?" Obviously, such a sentence is completely out of mind. The words he spit out caused Zhou Yang to pause after finishing speaking, but he quickly regained his peace.

Hey, why did he say such a thing?Anyway, this is her private matter, why should he interfere?Is he such a nosy master?Can't!Another look at her.

Well, although it's a private matter, but now she and he are partners, if she mishandles the private matter, it may directly affect his income, so he wants to nip all the unstable factors in the bud, hmm , It is because he has such foresight that he said such a sentence, it must be so!

Hearing this, Lu Lishi was stunned, and then stuck out her tongue embarrassingly, "You're right, it's because I didn't think carefully, Changqing is getting older, and he has abilities and good looks, Maybe many girls and aunts are staring at him quietly, I should pay more attention, and thank you for reminding me."

She thanked her very sincerely. She was still thinking about helping the child find a good girl, but she also forgot that it was in ancient times, no matter how close they are, there is a difference between men and women. Blushing, it turned out to be because of this, it seems that she really can't be so avant-garde anymore, at least she can't get too close in front of people.

It’s good to be able to recognize your own mistakes, Zhou Yang smiled in satisfaction, but just about to say something, he saw someone coming from a distance from the corner of his eye, turned his head and found that it was Situ, so he closed his eyes again. mouthed.

When Situ walked in, he first saluted Zhou Yang respectfully, and then said to Lu Lishi: "Miss, something happened in the mulberry garden, and the person who made the trouble invited people from the yamen. Zhong and Li Yi are watching over there, but there is no one in charge, so you and Mr. Shi hurried over to have a look."

Lu Lishi glanced at Zhou Yang subconsciously when she heard the words, and then said, "What do you mean, that the person making trouble is not actually from the mountain? Please tell me what you know carefully!"

Situ replied: "Miss Hui, you guessed right. The person who came to make trouble was Rui Niang's aunt. She kept yelling that you abused the workers, withholding their monthly payments, and not letting them go home during the holidays. So I went to the yamen People have come to judge."

Upon hearing this, Lu Lishi turned to look at Shi Liang again, "Mr. Shi, how long has it been since Rui Niang came home?"

She would never reduce the workers' vacations, and she did not believe that Shi Liang would do so behind her back. If there was such a situation, it could only be that Ruiniang didn't want to go home, and there would definitely be no second possibility.

Shi Liang heard that she didn't mean to blame him, and this trust was very useful to him, so he replied respectfully: "Going back to the boss's house, I have checked their entry and exit records. As far as I know, Ruiniang has I haven't gone down the mountain for nearly a month and a half."

Lu Lishi was shocked, "Then why didn't you tell me? Hey, it's my fault. There must be a reason why I don't want to go home. It's because I don't care enough for Rui Niang and the others, but next time you have something like this You must tell me, I will talk to them on the female workers side, and you will be responsible for the male workers’ side, is that possible?”

Shi Liang took a quick look at her, then lowered his head and cupped his hands and said, "Yes, I wrote it down."

If you want to change to another boss, when you encounter this kind of thing, you will either directly scold them, or you will put all the responsibility on them. However, not only did she not do this, but she also took the main responsibility on herself. , How could they not follow her wholeheartedly?To be honest, she was the only woman who had convinced him so far.

And Zhou Yang, who had been listening silently, took a deep look at her again, seeing the self-blame in her eyes, and for some reason, he felt a little pity.

When Lu Lishi thought of something, she looked at Zhou Yang again, hesitated for a moment, and then walked towards him, "You heard it too, something happened on the mountain, I have to go over and have a look, do you think you want to continue shopping or what, if you want Why don't I let Situ stay with you?"

Zhou Yang heard that she was issuing a disguised eviction order, instead of being annoyed, he looked at her and said with a smile: "No, just go if you have something to do, I should go too, I know this mountain road, no one needs to lead the way."

To be honest, when the four eyes met, he knew that she would come to him, no matter what the reason was, he thought that as long as she asked him for help, he would help her, even if he exposed the identity of the prince It doesn't matter, but she never thought that she would drive him away. Is she helping him hide his identity in a disguised form, or is she used to facing everything alone?
This woman... It's been too hard, recalling her tears last night, did he push her to this point?It was also the first time that she questioned her original decision. If he hadn't "led" her here, what kind of life would she be living now?

Lu Lishi didn't have time to think about other things, so she nodded, "That's fine, then I won't see you off, you just go down this road, there are signs at the corners of the mountain, you go slowly."

Zhou Yang didn't speak, but nodded, and then raised his hand, signaling her to go to her own business first.

Naturally, Lu Lishi wouldn't stay longer, and after discussing with Shi Liang, they headed towards the mulberry garden together.

Situ didn't move. After all, his master was here, and he couldn't act recklessly without his master speaking.

Zhou Yang glanced at Situ, pouted his lips, "You can follow along, don't worry about me, I'll go back to the Palace if I transfer again."

"Yes!" Situ cupped his fists respectfully, and quickly followed after he answered.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang smiled and shook his head, then looked at the figure that was fading away, and went straight down the mountain after a moment of silence.

Arriving at the mulberry garden, Lu Lishi saw a group of people gathered around the door of the house where Rui Niang and the others lived. After a general scan, she found that there were no new employees. She was surprised and relieved at the same time.

The sharp-eyed Ah Zhong saw Lu Lishi coming, so he said loudly to the crying woman sitting on the stone bench: "Our little boss and the chief manager on the mountain are here, you can talk to them directly if you have something to say."
