Abandoned woman from a poor family, she is addicted to wealth

Chapter 244 Renovation of the shop
The conditions of the Lu family are much better now, and the oil lamps have long been banned, and they have been replaced with bright candles.

The old lady called Mrs. Sun out of the kitchen, even Hua'er Duo'er was no exception. The table with incense and candles had already been prepared in the yard, worshiping the Moon Goddess, and praying for the safety of the whole family.

After worshiping the goddess of the moon, the moon in the sky became more and more round.

Mrs. Sun cooked a large table of dishes, and the dining table was placed in the yard.

In the center of the dining table is a big moon cake. The old lady is the oldest person. She cuts the moon cake with a knife and divides it into several portions for everyone to eat. After eating the moon cake, she chats while enjoying the moon while eating.

The old lady drank two cups of sweet-scented osmanthus wine this evening, and she was still a little dizzy now. Lu Jiu sent the old lady back to the house and went directly to find Lu Sidong.

"Fourth brother, do you know where the second brother is?" Lu Jiu was a little puzzled: "It's been half a month since the letter was sent out, why haven't you replied yet?"

"Second brother is in Lin'an Mansion, not close to our Anshun Mansion." Lu Sidong glanced at Lu Jiu, not knowing why his sister brought up this matter, but he still answered honestly: "I asked Xinke to send it to you." Xin, and spent a lot of money, it's only half a month, why are you in a hurry?"

Isn't half a month long enough?

But after thinking about it, transportation was inconvenient in ancient times, and it took a long time to deliver even military letters, not to mention the letter transmission between ordinary people, it was possible that the letter could not be received for two or three months.

Lu Jiu sighed: "I just miss my second brother, is the Xinke you're looking for reliable?"

The trustee is generally served by a man with credit and insight from ten miles and eight villages.They usually travel in fixed provinces and along fixed routes, and go to the hometown associations everywhere to receive and send letters, sometimes oral messages, for the villagers.Xinke works very hard and earns little. They are "xinren", that is, people who are trusted by everyone.

"Of course it's reliable. All the family letters in the past were sent by him." The rough Lu Sidong comforted Lu Jiu for the first time: "Sister, don't worry, the second brother will definitely come back in two months at most."

Lu Jiu hummed, and the house will be built by then, and she will make good compensation to the second brother's family.

Early the next morning, Xia Pingan brought his old friend Master Liu to Lu's house.

Master Liu looks about 40 years old, he doesn't dress very well, but he doesn't seem to talk much.

After a brief introduction, Master Liu didn't get close to Lu Jiu, but got straight to the point: "How does Miss Lu want to decorate?"

Lu Jiu always hated trouble, and he had a good sense of a simple person like Master Liu, so he handed over a blueprint directly: "Just decorate according to this."

Master Liu took the drawing and looked at it, then said to Lu Jiu, "Go to the shop first and have a look."

"to make."

Lu Jiu took Master Liu into the city, came to the shop, unlocked the door, and let Master Liu visit at will.

Master Liu wandered around the shop for a while, then took the blueprint and revised it, and finally it became a brand new blueprint.

Lu Jiu is not a professional after all, so it is impossible to follow her drawings completely.

Master Liu explained to Lu Jiu every time he made a revision, and he completely convinced Lu Jiu, so he followed what Master Liu said.

"Since it was introduced by Uncle Xia, I also trust you." Lu Jiu took out 50 taels of banknotes and a key, and said directly: "The 50 taels are left for you to buy something, and you can record each expenditure. If it’s not enough, ask me again, and I’ll hand it over to you!”
