It was not so hot in the morning. Early in the morning, when the sun had just risen, Cheng Ling was weeding in the field.
“Ling Ling, we have to make a trip to the Cheng family’s house.”
Cheng Ling’s forehead was already covered in sweat. She wiped it off casually and walked to Xie Ying’s side.
“Why are we going there?” Usually, there were only a few times in a year that they would go over. It was really rare for them to take the initiative to ask them to go over.
“Mr. Lu is here. He said that he has something to discuss with us.”
“Discuss with us?”
If it was any other time, Cheng Ling would not have bothered to go. However, she had just earned a sum from the Lu family last night…
After adding Lu Qi’s WeChat, Cheng Ling sent him the bill for yesterday’s small tomatoes and cucumbers. It was a total of 45,000 yuan. Lu Qi was also generous and directly transferred 50,000 yuan over.
After receiving the money, Cheng Ling happily circled around in the bed. She was in a good mood even when she woke up this morning.
“Then let’s go and see what’s going on.” She washed her hands and slowly walked over with Xie Ying holding her arm.
It rained last night, and the air was filled with the fragrance of earth. The mountains in the distance were still shrouded in fog. Lu Qi stood in a relatively hidden place and looked at the backs of the old and the young. His eyes were somewhat inquisitive.
When the two of them walked into the Cheng family’s house, Cheng Xiao was standing beside Lu Xiu. Her face was slightly red, and they did not know what Lu Xiu had said. The members of the Cheng family were all smiling.
Seeing Cheng Ling enter, Lu Xiu’s eyes lit up. He did not know why he actually wanted to stand up and greet her!
No, hold it in, you were now the person in charge of the Lu family!
Although he really wanted to eat another cucumber, he had to hold it in!
“Young Master Lu, Cheng Ling and the others are already here. If you have anything, just say it.”
No one asked Cheng Ling and Xie Ying to sit down. The two of them stood very close to the door, looking like they were ready to leave at any moment.
“What happens is yesterday, I passed by the back of the mountain and found that the scenery there is not bad. Therefore I want to buy a piece of land at the back of the mountain to build a house.”
The reason was also given by Lu Qi. It was obvious that Cheng Ling had hidden this piece of land from the Cheng family, so they could not expose it either.
Anyway, no matter what reason the Lu family gave, the Cheng family would definitely not have any objections.
Old Master Cheng heaved a sigh of relief. So it was actually about this matter?
They had never been to that part of the back of the mountain. If they could sell it to the Lu family as a favor, then they would have nothing to lose! It was like a pie falling from the sky.
“No problem at all! Let alone a piece of land, even the whole back of the mountain is fine!” Old Master Cheng was happy that he could win Lu Xiu’s favor.
Cheng Ling frowned.
The back of the mountain?
Xie Wan saw Lu Xiu staring at Cheng Ling, and she thought Lu Xiu was looking down on Cheng Ling. She then quickly introduced, “Young Master Lu, this is Cheng Ling. She lives in the back of the mountain with her grandmother. She grew up with her grandmother. This child’s grades aren’t very good. She’s completely different from Xiao Xiao. However, she likes farming and has a skill.”
After she said that, Xie Wan glared at Cheng Ling from an angle that Lu Xiu couldn’t see.
After all, they couldn’t expose their family’s dirty laundry. Even if they didn’t like Cheng Ling, they had to hide it in front of Lu Xiu so that Lu Xiu wouldn’t feel bad about their family’s atmosphere.
Xie Wan’s use of words was very clever. She emphasized that Cheng Ling grew up with Xie Ying, which was why she looked like the way she was. At the same time she gave Cheng Xiao a pat on the back and praised her.
Cheng Ling silently rolled her eyes in her heart.
Lu Xiu’s eyes swept across the crowd without leaving a trace. He knew what kind of situation this was.
He nodded and seemed to agree with Xie Wan’s words. “Indeed, farming is also a technical job. I believe that Miss Cheng Ling will definitely become a world-class expert in the future.”
Xie Wan’s expression changed slightly.
She was just casually saying it. Who would have thought that Lu Xiu would reply so seriously and even say that she would become a world-class expert.
Cheng Xiao, who was standing beside Lu Xiu, had the blush on her face faded. She bit her lips and couldn’t help but look at Cheng Ling. She didn’t have much chance to get along with Cheng Ling. Cheng Ling had always lived in the back of the mountain. To Cheng Xiao, Cheng Ling wasn’t even considered a member of the Cheng family. Even the housekeeper was more important than Cheng Ling.
But now, Lu Xiu actually praised her.
Cheng Ling didn’t dress up today because she had to go to work. She was wearing the simplest white T-shirt and black pants. Her hair was randomly tied into a bun. She was very casual and languid. A few strands of her hair hung down, giving her a more willful look.
Even so, Cheng Ling was still more beautiful than Cheng Xiao.
