Chapter 54: Another good job
Master Zhu was seriously injured.
Fortunately, half of the truck he was pulling was rescued.
Because the injuries of both master and apprentice cannot be delayed.
In the end, Yi Mingxue simply decided to let Uncle Li help Master Zhu's apprentice drive the car.
Then let Master Zhu lie down in Master Lin's car to rest.
He packed the remaining half of the truck's cargo in his own car.
It was difficult to walk on the mountain road after heavy rain, and Yi Mingxue was considered a novice.
At first, several old masters were very worried about her.
But she walked last and had already moved the goods in the box into the space while they were not paying attention.
She drives an empty truck, and Dongdong is very reliable.
It's much easier to walk than some old masters.
The group finally arrived in Huzhou County in the evening of the same day.
Master Zhu has relatives in the county.
So he took a group of people directly to his relative's house in Chema Lane.
The person who opened the door was a young man. He saw that Master Zhu was in a miserable state and had injured his legs and feet.
He quickly opened the door with quick hands and feet, and turned around and shouted loudly to the people in the room.
"Father, mother! Come quickly! Uncle is injured!"
Soon, a middle-aged couple ran out.
They are Master Zhu's second brother and sister-in-law.
The gate opened, and several carriages were driven directly into the side yard.
Only then did Yi Mingxue notice that there were two carts parked in the yard.
In the stable not far away, there were actually three or four adult yellow horses tied up.
It seems that Master Zhu's second brother's family is also a horse-drawn carriage driver.
And the business should be quite big.
Several people carefully carried Master Zhu into the house. Zhu Er was very concerned about Master Zhu's injury.
"What did you do? Why are you injured so badly?!" He then ordered his eldest son Zhu Tingmao, "Go and ask Bai Langzhong to come!"
Zhu Tingmao ran away quickly.
Master Zhu was very open-minded and even comforted his second brother and his wife with a smile.
"It's bad! It's just a broken leg. It's okay! It'll be fine in a few months."
Then he introduced everyone to Zhu Er, "You have all met Master Lin and my incompetent apprentice; these two are Uncle Li Er and Miss Yi Ming Xueyi, who were also hired by the Mei Dong family."
Zhu Er and his wife greeted everyone, and finally they both cast curious eyes on Yi Mingxue.
"This is the first time I've seen a female doll doing this!" Aunt Zhu was amazed.
Master Zhu quickly said, "Don't underestimate her! If it hadn't been for her last night, I would have ended up in the ravine."
Speaking of the danger last night, Master Zhu and his apprentices were still in shock.
Zhu Er and Aunt Zhu were both frightened after hearing Master Zhu's brief description.
"Miss Yi is so powerful! You are the savior of our old Zhu family." Zhu Er was so excited that he stood up and thanked Yi Mingxue.
Yi Mingxue quickly stretched out her hand to help him.
"Master Zhu Er, you're welcome. I just did what I should do."
While several people were talking, Zhu Tingmao also dragged the doctor back.
It's convenient for me to live in the county town, and I can find a doctor half a street away.
Doctor Bai saw the injuries of Master Zhu and his apprentices, and bandaged and set their bones.
"It's nothing serious. Remember to take a rest; especially Master Zhu. If you have to strain your muscles and bones for a hundred days, your legs will need to be recuperated for at least two months."
Master Zhu smiled bitterly.
But Zhu Tingmao on the side was worried, "Will it take so long? What will I do with the job I just took over?"
As soon as he spoke, his father slapped him on the back of the head.
"How frizzy he looks! Your uncle is injured like this, and you are only thinking about your little work."
Zhu Tingmao was also aggrieved, "That's not the county magistrate's job, I don't dare to neglect it!"
Master Zhu quickly dissuaded his second brother and said, "Ting Mao is not a child anymore. As your father, don't beat him in front of so many people! Ting Mao, tell me, uncle, what's going on?"
Zhu Tingmao quickly went to his uncle and said, "Uncle, this is what happened."
"Isn't Qiyang Town repairing the old city wall, and I heard that there are tens of thousands of garrison troops! So many people need to eat and drink every day, and military pay alone is definitely not enough, so the general gave this assistant to the purchasing assistant
It’s our county magistrate.”
"Then the county magistrate handed over the transportation to Master Chang. As you know, Master Chang's concubine is my aunt. My aunt loves me so much that she asked for ten places for me."
"I was thinking that our Zhu family's four-bedroom apartment would have exactly ten cars! Once this work is completed, it will take at least five or six months!"
Zhu Tingmao poured the beans into the bowl with a crackle and explained everything clearly.
"This is indeed a good job!" Master Zhu figured it out and came up with the answer.
I work for the army, and the county magistrate takes care of everything.
The journey will be smooth and the wages will be high.
The key is stability and longevity.
As long as the old city wall is not repaired and the garrison is not evacuated, they will always have business.
"Let's see..." Master Zhu was silent for a while and suddenly said, "Aren't you short of two cars now? Just let Miss Yi and Master Lin take over!"
"Anyway, your quota is about to come, and the wealth will not go to outsiders! Don't worry, their uncles will vouch for it!"
"Master!" Unexpectedly, upon hearing what he said, Master Zhu's apprentice was so anxious that his eyes were red, "My injury will be fine if I rest for a few days. I can also..."
Unexpectedly, Master Zhu didn't even let him finish his words, but interrupted him directly, "You can't do it! You can't make any mistakes in this job, otherwise your life may be in danger! You have an impatient personality and you still lack some firepower!"
"But..." His apprentice wanted to say something else.
But Master Zhu stopped him on the spot.
Zhu Tingmao had already learned from his parents that it was Yi Mingxue who saved his uncle last night.
Although he was always skeptical about a woman driving a sports car, now that his uncle had spoken, he naturally couldn't please his elders.
He turned to look at Yi Mingxue, "Sister, what do you think?"
Yi Mingxue and Uncle Li looked at each other.
Neither of them expected that this trip would yield such a harvest.
Yi Mingxue smiled, "Of course I have no objection to such a good job! It's just that we are new here, so we have to rely on Master Tingmao to take care of us when we fall down."
The Zhu family has been running carriages for generations, although Zhu Tingmao has been running carriages for two or three years.
But in front of this group of elders in my family, I have never received such compliments.
Yi Mingxue's beautiful words made him feel ecstatic.
He immediately patted his chest and promised, "Don't worry, since they are people my uncle trusts, they are family."
Unexpectedly, he was slapped on the forehead by his father again.
"You are such an innocent girl, but you are a family member! You kid, you don't have a clue, you just talk nonsense!"
"Hahaha--"
Aunt Zhu came out at the right time to greet everyone to dinner.
Zhu Tingmao's problem was solved.
Master Lin and Uncle Li were so excited that they couldn't close their mouths after getting such a good job.
Yi Mingxue was also very happy, but her emotions were not superficial.
He is obviously much calmer than Lin and Li.
For a while, everyone laughed.
Apart from……
Master Zhu’s apprentice——Mao Chun’er.
