Chapter 968: Who Will Take Me Home?
Zhou Qiao smiled and said, "third uncle, Ah You is Da Ya. Da Ya changed her name to Lu Shu You, and Da Hu and San Ya also changed their names. One is called Lu Shu Rui, and the other is Lu Shu Ning. Don't you think they sound nice?"
Lu Sanzhu stared with wide eyes. "They changed their names just like that?"
He rubbed his chin and said, "Indeed, Lu Shu You sounds better than Da Ya, but it still can't compare to my Da Bao and Bao Ya. Just hearing their names makes you feel like they're treasures."
Shu Yu and the others: "..." As long as you're happy.
However, seeing Zhou Qiao, Lu Sanzhu finally remembered his wife who was eagerly waiting for him at home, and he didn't want to work anymore. He got up and bid farewell. "Ah Yu, I have to go. I haven't been home for two days, and my wife must be really worried about me."
"Sure, go ahead."
Although she said that, Lu Sanzhu still stood stiffly in place, his eyes fixed on them with a hint of reproach.
The others looked at him, and Lu Sanzhu spoke up with righteousness, "Can one of you give me a ride? My house is in the south of the city, and I've been working all day. If I walk back, my legs will break."
He did think about driving Ah Yu's cart back, but he knew that they would be leaving the city tomorrow, and there wouldn't be a spare cart for him.
Lu Sanzhu suddenly felt that he not only needed to buy a house but also a cart.
This was something that Da Niu couldn't refuse, especially since Sanzhu had been staring at him earlier. "Third Uncle, I'll give you a ride."
"No need, I'll take third uncle back. I need to go to Fenghuai Street anyway," Shu Yu said, getting up.
Fenghuai Street was located between this store and the southern part of the city. Although it was closer to this side, since she was going in that direction anyway, she might as well drop Sanzhu off on the way.
Li Xiaoshan was killed, and Liang Wangsheng, who was involved, was working in the mansion on Fenghuai Street. Regardless of the situation, she needed to inform him to prevent the authorities from coming to her door unexpectedly. She wasn't mentally prepared for that.
In addition, she wanted to check on the progress of the mansion's renovation and bring her father back on the way.
Shu Yu decided to leave right away, and Lu Sanzhu hurriedly followed. Da Niu could only sit back down.
But as he thought about the imminent implementation of the estate plan and the busy days ahead, his excitement grew.
He explained the situation of the store to Lu Shu You and Lu Shu Rui, so that they could complete the handover as soon as possible. Then he could focus on farming without distractions.
The account books and procedures of Yiren Pavilion were simple and clear, and Da Niu had been managing them according to the original regulations. Therefore, it didn't take long for Lu Shu You to fully grasp everything.
The account books could be reviewed later. It was getting late, so Zhou Qiao escorted her out of the store.
After they left, she returned to the backyard.
Da Niu was tidying up the cut sunflower stalks, which could be used as firewood once they were dried.
Zhou Qiao quickly fetched a broom to sweep the floor. The couple exchanged a glance, and while they worked, Zhou Qiao asked about the estate.
"Where is the estate located?"
"It's a bit far from here, even if we take the cart, it's quite a journey." Da Niu paused and stood up straight. "The place is remote, with only about thirty households nearby. It's inconvenient for transportation and buying things. Qiao Qiao, if we really move to the estate, we won't have the same freedom as we do here. Are you..."
Zhou Qiao smiled, "I don't mind at all. You'll be there, and there are people around. We don't need to buy a lot of things in our daily life. I think it's good."
"Do you really think it's okay?" Da Niu was worried about inconveniencing her.
