Chapter 887: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 887: You Finally Showed Up
"Tomorrow?" Lu Sanzhu rubbed his chin and waved his hand with great arrogance. "Forget it, then I'll ask for another day off tomorrow."
Everyone: "...For the sake of seeing a house, you're not even doing any work? Is that necessary?"
"Uncle," Da Ya also leaned over to the window and looked at Lu Sanzhu on the opposite cart. She said, "You've already taken a day off today. If you take another day off tomorrow, what if the employer gets upset? You just got a raise, be careful they lower your wages."
Lu Sanzhu, full of pride, said, "You don't know this? Your third Uncle has foresight. I knew that Shu Yu would have a lot to do when she returned, so as her uncle, I should lend a hand, right? So I told the employer early this morning that I might need two days off."
Indeed, you are quite a clever one.
In the next moment, Da Bao's head popped out from behind the curtain, his eyes shining strangely. "Then I'll also take another day off. I won't go to the private school tomorrow."
After saying that, he proudly shook his head.
Old Madam pointed her finger at Lu Sanzhu and scolded, "Look at the influence you've had on your son. He's been spoiled by your laziness."
The triumphant expression on Lu Sanzhu's face disappeared completely. He shrank his neck, snatched the reins from Da Niu's hand without saying a word, and hastened his pace to run ahead.
Old Madam snorted. "It's been so long, and I thought he had a proper job and made some progress, but it turns out he's still the same."
"Grandmother, don't worry. We can't spend a whole day just looking at the house. After we finish tomorrow, we'll hurry him back to work."
Shu Yu turned around and smiled, speeding up as well.
The two mule carts entered the city gate one after the other.
Since the city gate was closer to Ningshui Street, the plan was to drop off Da Niu and his wife at their inn first and then return to Liufang Lane.
However, just as the carts entered Ningshui Street, a voice filled with anger sounded.
"Master Lu, Master Lu!!"
Shu Yu pulled the reins, looked around, and saw a person rushing over from behind.
Oh, he looked familiar, like the clerk from the cloth shop yesterday.
The clerk ran up panting and glared at Shu Yu with a dissatisfied expression. "Master Lu, you finally showed up."
Shu Yu, sitting on the cart shaft, kicked her feet casually. "Your words are strange. What do you mean by 'you finally showed up'? It's as if I deliberately hid from you. Who are you? Do I need to hide from you?"
"You..." The clerk instinctively wanted to retort, but he remembered the instructions from the shopkeeper and had to suppress his emotions. He said, "Master Lu, I didn't mean that. It's just that you told our shopkeeper yesterday about terminating the business contract between our two families, and our shopkeeper thought that you had just returned and were too busy to remember."
His voice wasn't low at all, and they were in the middle of the street. People passing by could hear him.
Shu Yu smiled. "You speak so nicely. Are you worried that I'll go back on my word? Rest assured, I will do as I promised. Your shopkeeper's business is in such a sorry state, and I'm afraid of being at a disadvantage if I continue to cooperate with you."
The clerk's face turned black, and he looked around. He indeed saw many people with expressions of surprise.
He wanted to explain, but Shu Yu had already gotten off the cart.
"Alright, since we're terminating the contract, let's go. I don't want to drag it out any longer."
