Chapter 175 Struggle
Yuanbao was already cooked, so he sat down and looked at the food on the table, his mouth watering, "Sister, I'm hungry."
Xia Qianqian stood under the eaves and watched for a while, but no one came.
There is not even a single servant in Hanxuan Courtyard. I really don’t know where these meals come from.
"Okay, let's eat first!"
Xia Qianqian used an empty bowl and set aside some vegetables before starting to eat with Yuan Bao.
After eating, she and Yuan Bao stayed for a while, but the cuttlefish didn't come back. Seeing that it was time for class in the afternoon, the two of them packed up and left the Hanlin Academy.
In a daze, the whole afternoon passed by in the blink of an eye.
After school, when the three of them came to the gate, Mo Yan was packing things in the side room. When he saw her, he walked over and waved.
Xia Qianqian stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Mo, what's the matter?"
"Xia Xiazi, what do you think of this place?" Mo Yan pointed to the room on the side of the ear room with a smile on his face.
Xia Qianqian looked around.
This penthouse is a large house with an inner coat. The outer room is similar to a hall. On weekdays, Mo Yan works there, drinks tea, etc.
The room in the inner room is larger in area. Because it is unused, there are usually some sundries piled up.
Nowadays, a door has been repaired on the wall facing the outside of the inner room, and the light shines in, making it much brighter.
"Mr. Mo, what are you going to do when you clean up the outer room?"
When this matter was mentioned, Mo Yan was a little excited. He quickly calmed down and pretended to be indignant: "It's the dean. He saw that your breakfast business was very good, so he planned to open a stall here."
Mr. Liu also wants to sell breakfast, which is impossible.
Xia Qianqian didn't take it seriously.
Seeing that Xia Qianqian didn't answer, Mo Yan quickly started to complain: "You don't know, Zhuxian Academy recruits students from the general public. They are children from ordinary or poor families. There are few educations, and some children go to school for free. So over the years
, the college’s accounts are always blank.”
He paused and lamented, "Thanks to the dean's subsidies throughout the year, we can still make ends meet. If the school can also develop some projects to generate income, it can also solve the urgent need."
"Mr. Mo, I understand what you are saying!"
Xia Qianqian looked as usual, "The college also wants to set up stalls to sell things. I don't object. Not only do I not object, I welcome it with both hands."
"Ah?" Mo Yan didn't understand this.
But Xia Qianqian understands.
Only with competitiveness and comparison can business be better.
"Mr. Mo, why don't you pack it up first?"
"Hey..." Looking at Xia Qianqian's voice walking away, Mo Yan stamped his feet, feeling a little annoyed.
Hey!
What a missed opportunity.
The order given by the dean to him was for him to remain calm and let the girl take the initiative to rent a house.
This girl ran away before he even got to the point.
Mo Yan shook his head and murmured: "There is so much nonsense, blame me for talking too much."
While he was feeling annoyed, someone helped Zhu Zirong and walked in unsteadily.
Seeing this, Mo Yan stepped forward to help the person, feeling a little helpless, "Mr. Zhu, aren't you recuperating in the medical center? Why are you back so soon?"
According to Zhu Zirong's past temperament, he would definitely have a good rest after suffering such a disaster this time. Unexpectedly, he ran back in one day regardless of the pain.
"Where is the dean?" Zhu Zirong's face turned pale and he roared: "I want to see the dean."
"The dean is out."
While helping the person to the back room, Mo Yan tried to persuade her: "Mr. Zhu, that girl is just a child. Why should you be angry with her?"
What's more, that child is also favored by the dean.
"Am I angry with her, or is she my nemesis and always against me?"
When Zhu Zirong heard the advice, he was so angry that he yelled.
The loud voice made him feel unsteady in breathing, and his brain was buzzing and painful.
"She also..." That girl didn't get angry with you. It was you who was unconvinced and went against others.
Mo Yan did not dare to say these words to his face.
He could only give a strong hint: "Mr. Zhu, you are favored by the dean. That girl has just arrived and is also very popular with the dean. You two are at odds, and the dean is caught in the middle. It is also difficult."
The dean favors her?
Mo Yan's words almost sent Zhu Zirong away.
"Quick, help me go to bed and lie down."
After he has rested, he will definitely find an opportunity to take care of that girl.
If not, how can he gain a foothold in Zhuxian Academy from now on?
Under the corner outside the West City Gate, rows of carriages were parked. The most familiar position was empty, without a single person.
Yuan Bao ran around and jumped back, "Sister, Uncle Wang is not here, did he forget to wait for us?"
Impossible!
Xia Qianqian glanced at the street and replied: "Maybe he is delayed for something, let's wait."
Wang Yueyue echoed from the side: "Uncle Wang has been very busy recently. His cattle have to run back and forth to Jiangcheng in Fu'an Village every day, and also run to neighboring villages to help pull things. Even a person will be tired."
The speaker is unintentional but the listener is interested.
Xia Qianqian thought about it, this inconvenience of traveling is really annoying, and she needs to find a way to solve it.
Half an hour later, Uncle Wang still didn't show up, and the three of them had a hint of anxiety on their faces.
Wang Yueyue couldn't wait any longer, "Qianqian, my mother was ill last time and was not in good health for a while. I rushed home to make medicine for her. I don't know if she is okay at home this whole day?"
Wang Yueyue felt a little uncomfortable when she thought of Li's body.
This time her father allowed her to come to school, thanks to her mother’s intercession.
But when she went to school, her mother had no one to take care of her at home, which was really embarrassing.
Wang Yueyue is anxious, Yuanbao is a child, so he is even more impatient.
Xia Qianqian looked at the end of the avenue, but there was still no sign of Uncle Wang, and suggested: "Let's rent another carriage to go home."
"But I..." Wang Yueyue was a little embarrassed. She didn't have any extra coins.
"Come with me."
Xia Qianqian reminded: "When we are riding in the carriage later, everyone should be more alert. If you encounter Uncle Wang on the road, call him quickly."
"Okay!"
A group of people rented a carriage and kept opening the curtains and looking out the window all the way.
Until we approached Fu'an Village, Uncle Wang was nowhere to be seen.
At the gate of the Xia family, the three people jumped out of the carriage. Before they could stand still, Li Yunniang at the door ran over and grabbed Xia Qianqian's hand, "Qianqian, something happened!"
Li Yunniang's voice had a hint of crying, "Uncle Wang was held down by people from the next village and turned to the government office."
Xia Qianqian's expression changed, "Why?"
"He recently helped repair the houses of several families in a neighboring village. Unexpectedly, while he was working today, the roof collapsed and one person died. His family refused to work and sent him to the police."
"If the house collapses, what does it have to do with him?"
