Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 117 The Tranquility Before the Storm

The master started searching along the river with great fanfare.

The people who built the river channel also knew that Mo Xuan was missing, and they all gathered around Ling Yi.

"Mr. Lingyi, is Master Mo Xuan really not here? Was he washed away by the water?"

"Mr. Lingyi, we will stop working and help you find the adults."

Looking at the familiar faces, Ling Yi had an indescribable feeling. At this time, his face was covered with stubble and his eyes were full of red bloodshot eyes. Not only him, but also other people.

It has been several days and the adults have not come back or been found, but they do not want to give up.

That godlike adult will definitely come back. They have to fix the waterway, and they will definitely be very happy when he comes back.

Lingyi patted the person in front of him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, you will definitely come back. We have sent people to look for him, as well as the government office."

"You can work on the waterway construction with peace of mind. Your Excellency used to like this place the most, so we must stick here and wait for Your Excellency to come back."

The person in front of me felt a little better, turned around and started working hard, feeling strong in my heart that I must do a good job and the adults will definitely come back.

In the county magistrate's house, the servants and maids were all very cautious, fearing that they would cause trouble for the master's family.

The family has been depressed, the master is missing, the wife is ill and cannot afford it, and Young Master Rui'er is more depressed than usual.

He heard that his father was missing and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and his mother was sick. He had to be sensible and not cause trouble for his family.

Yun Shang's mood became more and more irritable, from being full of confidence at the beginning to feeling uneasy now.

Why hasn't your husband come back yet?Did something really happen?Or is something delayed?They say my husband is injured. Do you have any medicine?Feeling better or not?

Seeing that people are getting thinner and thinner, the small kitchen is trying different ways to prepare food, but there is no appetite.

Yun Shang looked at the gloomy sky outside, "Is it going to rain again? There won't be any floods!"

Yun Shang murmured to herself, and the grandmother behind her glanced out the window and sighed silently.

"Madam, don't worry, the master will definitely come back!"

Yun Shang nodded, and she kept comforting herself that her husband would come back and everything would be fine, but how long would it take for him to come back?

In the past, she didn't like rain and felt stuffy. Now she hates rainy days and has a shadow in her heart.

"Madam, the concierge is here to report. Master is here. Do you want to see him?"

The master has been here several times in the past few days, but Yun Shang has only seen him once. The rest were excused from his poor health and he has not been seen again.

Yun Shang frowned in disgust, "Tell him that I'm not feeling well. Send someone to ask the master if the county magistrate has been found? What have the yamen servants been doing for so long? If you still can't find him, don't blame me for making trouble." Government office."

Mammy nodded and didn't think anything was wrong. She just saw her if she didn't want to see her. My wife is a woman and her husband has disappeared. She didn't have the attack until now. She was already sensible enough.

After learning the words from the master, the master felt relieved. It seemed that the county magistrate really hadn't come back.

The master smiled bitterly and said to the little maid in front of him, "Please rest assured, madam, I will do my best."

Hearing the reply, Yun Shang couldn't help but snorted coldly, "Why didn't you say that you couldn't find anyone and come to see me? Does this mean that you are sure that your husband will not come back?"

Hearing the resentful tone, grandma just pretended not to hear it and complained as much as she wanted, as long as she didn't keep it in her heart.

As if the master had received the news, he began to take action to win over wealthy businessmen from all walks of life and manage everything.

People were sent to monitor the progress of the waterway, waterwheels and terraces, and even had to discharge all the floods from several flood discharge points.

However, after a few tests, the few people sent out were not sure and opened an opening from above. As a result, the river flowed out and almost washed away the people.

Not daring to act blindly, Master had to give up first.

Thinking of Lingyi and others, he couldn't help but be greedy. How great would it be if these people could be used by them?

It's a pity that those people are loyal and there is no possibility of rebellion. If they really rebel, would he dare to use them?

The location of the flood discharge cannot be opened casually. We can only turn our attention to the waterway and send a lot of extra manpower there, which makes the progress a lot faster.

Lingyi accepts all comers, and this is a time when a large number of people are in short supply. They are sent to the door for nothing, how can they not use them?

The master kept a close eye on the waterway. He regarded the waterway as his political achievement and a certificate of submission to the court. Of course, he did not give up on other things.

The Tian family was suppressed by the Li family at this time, and their business declined. He was jealous of the Li family's daily income.

At this time, he didn't know that the idea of ​​barbecue was the wife of the county magistrate, and she just wanted to steal the business.

He asked Zhang Chao and others to pay attention, but there was only one way he could think of, poisoning.

When someone dies, the owner of the tavern must go through interrogation and go to the dungeon. They have many ways to pry open a person's mouth.

The master agreed and left it directly to Zhang Chao, without him having to do anything personally.

Find the victim, find the perpetrator, find some witnesses, and it will be done.

Li Hao has been in a bad mood recently. When something happens to an adult, he always feels that he lacks a protective umbrella, and even wants to suspend business for rectification.

He knew that someone would be watching his business, and the master and his wife also wanted him to be careful.

Sometimes he thought that if he could teach the recipe ingredients and business to save his family, then he could exit safely.

His father woke him up. The Li family had received the favor of the county magistrate and the wife's formula. If they gave up this business at this time, it would be equivalent to joining the team again.

Can the master treat him sincerely?If the county magistrate has nothing to do, can he, the poor county magistrate, take it?

So no matter what, he could only stand firm. No matter what happened, he could only stand by the county magistrate.

Last night, my wife specifically talked to him and gave him reassurance, "Husband, don't worry, we will never hold you back."

"You can do it with confidence. I believe those people will have scruples and will not compromise the entire Li Mansion. We are your backing. Whatever you want to do, just do it!"

The lady persuaded him with a smile, and Li Hao suddenly felt a surge of pride.

He has always been timid, otherwise he would not have been attached to Mr. Tian before. When he became a target, he almost peed his pants.

Now he suddenly felt that he was not afraid of anything. He wanted to follow his own heart and it would be done.

Li County is not a big place. There are people who want to deal with the Li Mansion. Some people have heard the news a long time ago. Those who want to take sides have already taken sides, while the rest are still waiting and watching.

There have been surprisingly few guests these days, and there are only a few tables in a day. The chefs are very idle, and someone reported to Li Hao.

Li Hao was silent for a while. It seemed that these people were about to take action and told people not to worry about it and just be more attentive.

They couldn't defend themselves even if they wanted to, and they were just waiting for someone to take the initiative.

This moment is like the calm before the storm, tense and depressing, but unavoidable.
