Chapter 427 Report
Anbei Mansion.
"Master, this is a letter sent by the young master."
Chu Nan hurried in from the outside and handed an envelope to Chu Lianqing.
At this time, Chu Lianqing was much thinner than when he was in Dongfeng Mansion, and his complexion also had an unhealthy pale color.
"Zhang Yang?"
Chu Lianqing frowned, took the envelope, opened it, and read the contents inside.
After a while, he put down the letter, handed it to Chu Nan and said, "Burn it."
"Yes!"
Chu Nan took it respectfully with both hands, and immediately threw the letter into the charcoal basin beside him without daring to take a second look.
When the paper meets the charcoal fire, it will be reduced to ashes in a short time.
"Yingya has arrived at Dongfeng Mansion, and she is planning to come to her."
Chu Lianqing told Chu Nan what was mentioned in the letter, with an unsure expression on his face.
"Master, isn't it inappropriate for Xia Liu, a maid, to pretend to be a young lady?" Chu Nan pursed his lips and said hesitantly.
After all, Chu Yingya was Chu Lianqing's biological daughter, so Xia Liu took over Chu Yingya's identity. Is this justified?
"If she is obedient and obedient, then of course she can be her official lady in Jiqing Mansion."
Chu Lianqing sneered, with a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes, and said cruelly: "But since she dared to go to Dongfeng Mansion to seek revenge on me, then don't blame me for disregarding the relationship between father and daughter!"
Chu Yingya went to Dongfeng Mansion to avenge Sima Lianhe.
And isn't he the target of revenge!
Since Chu Yingya wants to deal with him, don't blame him for being cruel!
"Let Xia Liu take Yingya's place for the time being, and we'll deal with her after leaving Dongfeng Mansion." Chu Lianqing glanced at Chu Nan and said.
He wouldn't let Chu Yingya off, let alone Xia Liu, a maid who took over her identity.
It's just that there are so many people in Dongfeng mansion, it's not convenient for them to do anything, they can only make plans after they leave.
"Yes, master." Chu Nan agreed with a low eyebrow.
"The weather is getting cold now, how long will it take us to reach Dongfeng Mansion?" Chu Lianqing looked at the charcoal basin beside him, frowned, and asked displeasedly.
"Master, we just entered the territory of Dongfeng Mansion yesterday, and it will take at least one more month to arrive at Dongfeng Mansion." Chu Nan said in embarrassment.
If they travel lightly, they can easily increase their speed, and it is not impossible for them to reach Dongfeng Mansion in ten days and a half months.
But the problem is that they have to bring the big golden Buddha with them!
The Golden Buddha can't ride in a carriage, so it can only be pushed and transported by manpower.
Even though Li Houming's subordinates had brought a lot of troops to send each other off, their speed was inevitably slowed down.
"We have to send the Golden Buddha up on the New Year's Eve at the latest!" Chu Lianqing said, pursing his lips.
Originally they planned to deliver it at the end of the year, presenting the Golden Buddha as a Chinese New Year gift to the emperor and queen mother.
But the plan can't keep up with the changes, and they must be too late at the end of the year.
"According to our current pace, master, I'm afraid it's a bit precarious." Chu Nan frowned, secretly estimated the distance and their speed, and reminded Chu Lianqing.
"Go and tell Li Houming to tell his subordinates to speed up. If the timing is delayed, we will all be unable to eat!" Chu Lianqing glanced at Chu Nan and said in a cold voice.
"Yes!" Chu Nan agreed, and went to find Li Houming.
Li Houming looked at Chu Nan in front of him, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, and said, "If it weren't for your master falling ill as soon as he was on the road, we might have arrived at Dongfeng Mansion by now."
Chu Nan looked a little embarrassed. When they were on the road, Chu Lianqing was tortured by the female ghost in great pain. He also had a fever and was unconscious.
However, Chu Lianqing didn't see a doctor, and had to stay with the Golden Buddha all day long, saying that it was possible for him to get sick.
It's no wonder that the whole team can speed up after he makes such a fuss!
After finally waiting for Chu Lianqing to pass out, Chu Nan found a famous local doctor to treat Chu Lianqing, and Chu Lianqing gradually recovered.
"General Li, the master said that if the delivery of the Golden Buddha is delayed and the emperor punishes him, this hard work will be in vain." Chu Nan reminded in a low voice.
Li Houming frowned, he didn't want this good job to be messed up because of it, and he wanted to use this credit to return to Dongfeng Mansion!
"From tomorrow onwards, we will go all out on our way. Remind you, master, don't get sick again. I won't wait for him then!" Li Houming said with a cold look at Chu Nan.
Chu Nan shivered when Li Houming saw it, bowed his head in response, and left obediently.
"These civil servants are all virtuous, and they shirk responsibility when something happens!"
Watching Chu Nan leave, Li Houming sneered, his eyes filled with displeasure.
The current situation was obviously caused by Chu Lianqing, and what Chu Lianqing did today was clearly to shift all responsibility to him.
It's just that Chu Lianqing's wishful thinking was clearly wrong, Li Houming is not a soft persimmon to be kneaded by others.
Neither is the Li family behind him!
There is no way to make him take the blame!
……
Chu Mansion.
"All the books have been printed, and according to Mr. Chu's instructions, they have been distributed to the students in batches."
Lin Huai reported the recent situation to Chu Zhuang.
Chu Zhuang nodded slightly. This is the first time because of the need to engrave the template, so the speed is naturally slower.
But when you need to print later, you only need to make a plate to print immediately.
"in addition……"
Lin Huai looked around, lowered his head and leaned against Chu Zhuang's ear and whispered, "The characters ordered by Mr. Chu are also ready."
Because of Chu Zhuang's special orders, these characters were carved secretly by Lin Huai alone in the room, without the hands of anyone else.
"So fast?"
Chu Zhuang did not expect that Lin Huai's speed would be so fast, and he would finish it in such a short time.
Lin Huai thought for a while and said, "I'm also afraid that it will delay Mr. Chu's affairs."
Although Chu Zhuang said at the time that he was not in a hurry, Lin Huai thought that since Chu Zhuang had needs, it would be better to make these things earlier than not to make them.
So these are all made by him staying up all night.
"Thank you." Chu Zhuang also knew that it was not easy for Lin Huai to complete so many tasks in a short period of time, so he patted Lin Huai on the shoulder and said.
"No hard work! It's my blessing to be able to help Mr. Chu!"
What Lin Huai said was sincere, if he hadn't met Chu Zhuang, where would he be wandering with Lin Xiaomu at this time.
Now that her life is stable and she can still do the job she likes, Lin Huai is really grateful to Chu Zhuang.
Facing this kind of employees who take the initiative to work overtime, to be honest, there is no boss who doesn't like it.
Chu Zhuang is still very satisfied with Lin Huai's work attitude, but he is not a black-hearted boss who exploits employees unscrupulously, so he decided to wait until the end of the year to give Lin Huai a few days off, and then give him a big red envelope as a year-end bonus .
"Put these fonts away carefully, and I will come to you when you need to use them." Chu Zhuang thought for a while and said.
The implementation of their plan will have to wait until the paper developed by Yunhong, so these fonts are not available for the time being.
"Yes, I understand." Lin Huai immediately nodded in response.
"By the way, what about the three apprentices?" Chu Zhuang asked, remembering the three of them, Mr. Lin.
"Three of them?"
Lin Huai frowned, thought for a while, and then said: "Lin Da and Lin Er are quite honest, but this Lin San has his own little thoughts."
"Oh?" Chu Zhuang raised his eyebrows, and asked curiously, "What care?"
"I just like to inquire about the things in the printing workshop, and I always like to ask me about the printing workshop and Mr. Chu you." Lin Huai did not hide anything, and told the truth about the situation of several people.
After getting along with the three of them for such a period of time, Lin Huai still has some understanding of the nature of the three of them.
Both Lin Da and Lin Er are honest and responsible people. Because they had a difficult life before, they cherish the stable life now and work very hard.
It was Lin San who had a glib tongue. He had used this mouth to curry favor with the old craftsmen in the printing workshop. Lin Da and Lin Er were responsible for all the dirty work, so he could hide behind and be lazy.
But Lin Huai didn't like him, and treated the three of them equally. After finishing the work assigned, he could eat and rest.
From Lin Huai's point of view, the money in Chuzhuang was not brought by the strong wind. The apprentices should be grateful if they can get the wages.
After Lin San was deducted a month's wages by Lin Huai, he gradually became honest.
But Lin Huai was always a little worried about him. Dogs can't change their eating shit. It's impossible to change the temperament they have developed over the years in just a few months.
If they were an ordinary book printing house, it would be fine for people like Lin San, but Lin Huai knew what was special about their book printing house. Leaving aside the advanced craftsmanship, Chu Zhuang still had a little secret in the printing house. Inside.
Having such a person is definitely a great unstable factor for their printing house.
So when Lin Huai came here today, he actually wanted Chu Zhuang to drive Lin San out.
"It's a lot of careful thinking."
Chu Zhuang showed a thoughtful expression, but he was not in a hurry to punish Lin San.
He wanted to hear the shadow guard's observation of the three of them before making a decision.
Lin Huai can only see what's on the bright side, but the shadow guard observes secretly, so he can see the real appearance of a person.
"I know about this matter, and I will deal with Lin San's matter." Chu Zhuang looked at Lin Huai and said.
Hearing that Chu Zhuang said he would deal with it, Lin Huai was slightly relieved.
"Young master Chu, I have finished dealing with other matters. Now I only have to develop bicycles. I don't know if there is any other work?" Lin Huai asked.
Lin Huai always felt that once he was free, he would feel sorry for the exorbitant wages that Chu Zhuang paid him, so he always wanted to keep himself busy.
"Not for the time being. You develop the bicycle first. This bicycle is not as simple as a wheelchair." Chu Zhuang said with a smile.
Lin Huai had worked so hard these past few months, and Chu Zhuang didn't want to tire him out.
After sending Lin Huai away with a dissatisfied face, Chu Zhuang turned around and went back to the study to continue reading. The exam at Yushan Academy was about to take place. In order to avenge his shame, Chu Zhuang also worked extra hard recently.
"Chuzhuang." Yunmengxi knocked on the door and walked in with a serious face.
"What's the matter?" Seeing the expression on Yunmengxi's face, Chu Zhuang immediately asked until something must have happened.
