Chapter 79 Pretending to be a bandit
After avoiding the sun’s peak time at noon, You Jin led Song Hua to continue to circle around the mountain. Song Hua wiped the sweat from his forehead. He couldn't help admiring Su Family’s Eldest Miss whom he had looked down upon before. On such a sunny day, her face had two big blushes, and the hair on her temples was also sticking onto her forehead. Still, she ran around with such vigor, as if she would never be tired!
"Song Hua, why are you in a daze?" You Jin called him a few times and got no response. Looking back, it turned out to be him standing by the stream in a daze!
Song Hua, whose thoughts were interrupted, looked at You Jin who was ten steps away in panic. He asked, "Huh? Eldest Miss? You called me?"
Thinking that he was still slandering the big girl just now, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty. However, flushed cheeks from the sun didn’t reveal his guilty conscience.
"What were you thinking that had you so preoccupied?" You Jin amusedly gave him an eye roll. Then she spoke: "I was asking you, what are your thoughts on me putting you here to learn to manage things?" After all, the long-term workers weren’t bought. You Jin was really worried about leaving all the money matters to Hou Wei and others to manage. The only people around her who she can use were Han Li and Song Hua. But Han Li was bottled up. Not many words can be pulled out of him. It would be better for witty Song Hua to step forward.
"M, me, me?" Song Hua didn't expect Eldest Miss to drop such a big news so lightly. He hadn’t reached fifteen years old. Previously, he was just doing odd jobs in the previous master's house. Now he was going to be in charge? Having such happy thoughts, a silly smile appeared on Song Hua’s face.
You Jin sighed. He was still tender. However, there was no one to use right now. Song Hua was barely suitable. She’ll make do! Once again, she called him, whose mind had wandered far away, back to reality: "I just want to ask you what your thoughts are first. If you are willing, I will discuss it with your father when we get back today. You should learn some things about managing people from your father first. If you learn something useful, I’ll let you? How about it?"
How could Song Hua listen to anything else that You Jin said now? Nodding again and again, he agreed: "Sure, I'll listen to Eldest Miss."
The two walked one after the other and chatted. When the sun was setting, Song Hua felt that his body was covered with the smell of sweat. Only then, You Jin gave approval and they made their way home.
In the afternoon of June, the sunset turned red like a red heart and hung in the sky like an egg yolk. Still, the power of scorching the earth hadn’t diminished. The hot wind blew by and made people feel stuffy. Not relieving the heat the slightest.
Old Third Chen and the other five people had been hiding in the grass by the roadside for a long time. There the sun, heat, and mosquito bites. Although the environment was difficult, the few local ruffians who usually eat and do nothing were all thinking about the two thousand liang they were about to get and endured the pain for a while. Each unblinkingly stared at the corner of the intersection, waiting for the figure of the blue-top mule cart.
Old Third Chen, who came back after going to pee, frustratedly cursed: "Damn, why is the little b*tch still not showing up! I’ll give her a good sorting later. Let her know how powerful I am!"
He already put the blame of their suffering on You Jin's head.
"Third Elder Brother, here they come!" Just as old Third Chen was thinking about how to deal with Su Family’s little b*tch, a bright, joyous low voice rang out in his ear: "Third Elder Brother! Third Elder Brother!"
