Chapter 816: Chapter 816: Steward Lu Has Found You an Easy Job

The county magistrate was taken aback, then burst into hearty laughter, “No wonder Lord Qi values Monarch Lu Xiang so highly, conversing with you is indeed much more comfortable.”

Shu Yu felt embarrassed; what she said was the truth.

The county magistrate waved his hand, “Alright, I’ll ask Wang Changdong about this matter.”

Wang Changdong still didn’t know that the opportunity he had dreamt of was about to fall into his lap. The wasteland was still some distance from the manor, and he didn’t want to keep the county magistrate waiting, so he pulled out his donkey and hurried towards the wasteland.

After arriving with sweat all over his head, he finally saw Xu Dali, who was carrying baskets in the field.

Wang Changdong dismounted from the donkey, wiped his sweat, and waved his hands at him, “Xu Dali, Xu Dali, come here.”

People working in the wasteland turned their heads one after another. Hearing his name called, Xu Dali staggered, nearly falling to the ground, but it was Ms. Lin who quickly caught him and set the basket down.

Soft discussions took place on the side, “What’s happened? Why has Steward Wang personally come to look for Xu Dali?”

“Just now at noon, someone from the Liu Family brought food, and I happened to hear their conversation. They seemed to mention that several important people had arrived at the manor. Steward Wang coming to find Xu Dali must be related to them.”

“I remember Xu Dali’s father used to work for Prince. Could it be that some trouble has arisen, adding to his punishment?”

“Oh, what a pity, the Xu Family has been in the exile area for so long, just when they were about to regain their freedom and taste the sweetness after the hardship.”

These side comments naturally reached the ears of Xu Dali and Ms. Lin.

Ms. Lin’s face suddenly turned pale, she couldn’t help but grab Xu Dali’s hand, her voice trembling slightly, “No, could something really have happened?”

“Don’t worry, I’ll go have a look.”

However, Wang Changdong was already getting impatient on the other side. Seeing Xu Dali had not yet come over, he ran straight to the field ridges before them.

“What’s with all the dawdling, hurry up, follow me back quickly, the Lord is waiting.”

Xu Dali took a deep breath, holding Ms. Lin’s hand, and looked at Zhensheng, who had nervously come to his side. He asked Wang Changdong, “Steward Wang, has something happened?”

Wang Changdong laughed heartily, “Good fortune, lad, your luck has arrived.”

Xu Dali was startled, somewhat perplexed, “Good fortune?”

“Indeed, Steward Lu, oh, has found a less strenuous job for you. But you must come back with me first to see. Later, in front of the county magistrate, perform well. Otherwise, this job won’t be yours.”

Nothing had been finalized yet, so Wang Changdong did not disclose more, merely waving his hand. “Come on, hurry up, don’t dawdle.”

Xu Dali was momentarily in a daze; he hadn’t misheard, had he? Steward Wang said Lady Lu had found him a less strenuous job?

He and Ms. Lin exchanged glances, and without further ado, quickly stood up and stepped onto the field ridge.

Wang Changdong looked at Ms. Lin and Zhensheng, then at the other people beside them, who were extremely curious, then paused before waving his hand, “Bring your wife and child too. Let’s just work half a day today.”

Xu Dali thanked him gratefully, then helped his wife and child up.

The family of three hurriedly followed Wang Changdong toward the manor.

The people left on the wasteland looked at each other, itching with curiosity.

Some, however, inappropriately looked towards the Shu family’s direction; after all, Steward Wang had said it was Lady Lu who had helped find the good job.
