429 A role that I really like

Lu Zheng seemed to remember Meng Meng saying that there had been Two Betrayals in his village. The first time was when the betrayer brought strong men with good skills to another village. The second time was when the remaining people drew a topographic map of their village for the officials and drugged the people in the village so that the officials could easily go up the mountain and arrest them.

Lu Zheng saw that Gu shouxin wanted to use Meng Meng for his own use, so he still reminded him.

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible! None of the remaining people will betray us!” Meng Meng waved his hand, indicating that Lu Zheng was wrong.

“Alright, you believe in them, I believe in you. There are ten taels of silver here. After you go back tomorrow, come to the village at the crossroads to find me in the middle of the day. I will take you to the place I told you. I’ll get Sir he to prepare the Indenture contract for you at the Yamen. At that time, you can just stamp your thumbprint.” Gu shouxin did not dwell on this matter. Lu Zheng seemed to be more familiar with Meng Meng. Anything related to Lu Zheng should be recorded in the book. He could ask Gu Nian tomorrow.

“Many thanks, second uncle Gu! Second uncle Gu, brother Zhou, I’ll take my leave first!” Gu shouxin took the silver, cupped his fists to the two people, and then left.

After Meng Meng left, Lu Zheng looked at Gu shouxin.

I just happened to buy a Manor for niannian, so I plan to let this group of old, weak, and sick women go to the manor and farm for our family while I’m there! This time, without Lu Zheng asking, Gu shouxin had already told him.

Anyway, Meng Meng would be bringing people over in a few days, and Lu Zheng would know by then.

“Oh, I see! Second uncle is really good at picking people!” Lu Zheng gave him a thumbs-up and said, ” but I think second uncle should be careful. Meng Meng is reliable, but I have a feeling that there are still problems with the people in his village. Niannian’s Manor must be used as a workshop. Things like washing and protective suits should wait until we’re sure that they’re honest before letting them do anything!”

“Thank you for the reminder! I know what to do, go to sleep!” Gu shouxin patted Lu Zheng’s shoulder.

Lu Zheng smiled and did not say anything more.

……

The next morning, Gu shouxin was talking to Lord he at the county government office. They had lunch together before the family returned to the village.

Madam li didn’t go back for the whole night. After giving some instructions to Cai Xiaolian on the way, she didn’t go to the village, but went straight back to the house.

After entering the village, Gu shouxin first went to the old house to tell Grandpa Gu that he was safe before returning home.

Gu Xin hadn’t added any jade beads to her grandfather’s medicine jar today, so she stayed at the old mansion.

“Niannian, is there a person named Meng Meng in the book?” After returning home, Gu shouxin asked.

“Of course there is! Meng Meng, a character that I really like! He was invincible on the battlefield! Without him, it would be difficult for Lu Zheng to fight a war. however, I didn’t see his ending. Not long after the death of the female lead in the book, a new emperor ascended the throne. Lu Zheng was immersed in the death of the female lead and couldn’t get his spirits up. The Emperor then sent Meng Meng to lead the Army! Before he went to war, he was a fourth-rank general. The new emperor made him go to war and gave him the title of third-rank general Rong Wei! If he returns triumphantly, the new emperor will probably give him a rank two!” Gu Nian remembered that she quite liked this role.

“What did you think of Meng Meng in court yesterday?” Gu shouxin asked. So this was her identity.

“What? Father, don’t tell me that the idiot yesterday was Meng Meng? The invincible general Meng Meng in the book?” Gu Nian’s eyes widened as the image of the burly man wearing armor and holding a large saber while riding a tall horse with a silly smile appeared in her mind.
