Chapter 58
"The city lord has always been kind and generous, and he also said that he wants to lift the people of the city out of poverty. You... you are not from Luancheng, are you?"

The nanny leaning against the door looked again at the old man who kept beating his chest in front of him, but he looked like an ordinary little old man, without any weirdness.

Seeing Mammy's expression loosen, the little old man rolled his eyes twice quickly, then ouched, slapped his chest hard and coughed twice, he raised his hand again, only to see a few drops of bright red blood on the veil.

"Old man... I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't see the day when my little grandson goes to school..."

The expression of the nanny leaning against the door changed, she immediately raised her hand to greet the two servants, and said, "Quickly, get him out!"

"He just coughed up blood, maybe he has a lung disease! Hurry up, this symptom is a bit like tuberculosis, don't let him infect the city lord!"

Two young servants flew in, picked up the little old man and took him out.

The little old man kept calling when he left, "Ouch, ouch, take it easy, old man, I'm getting old, and I can't bear it with my old bones!"

Ning Zhao swallowed, and the hand on Chu Yu's sleeve pulled even tighter.

Mammy raised her eyes, looked Ning Zhao from top to bottom, and asked in confusion, "Why are you standing there, aren't you here to be a maid? Come in!"

Ning Zhao walked slowly inside, Chu Yu followed behind her.

The nanny yelled again, "What are you doing with her, wait!"

After finishing speaking, the door closed with a bang, and Ning Zhao and Chu Yu were separated by this door.

The nanny who was leaning on the door just now called out to the place covered by the gauze curtain: "Mother Xu, I brought him in."

Seeing that Ning Zhao didn't move, she pushed her, "What are you doing in a daze, go in and answer Madam Xu's question!"

Ning Zhao took a deep breath, took a step forward, closed the gauze curtain and walked inside.

The first thing that catches the eye is a pair of golden nanmu who is short, and his eyes move upwards. It is a pair of big feet that do not match the age and gender.

These big feet in black cloth shoes don't look like the feet of an old woman, but look like those of a tall man.Ning Zhao quietly raised his eyes, wanting to see who this mama Xu was, but suddenly froze.

After a while she hesitated and said: "Xu..." Brother Xu?

The person in front of him was wearing a gray cloth robe, tall and thin, with a rare dark wheat-colored skin.His facial features are tough, his eyebrows are flying into his temples, his thin lips are slightly parted, his face has a slightly playful expression, and there is a bit of a smile in those iconic gray-blue eyes, who is it if it's not Xu Mingchao?
Xu Mingchao raised his index finger and leaned against his lips, gestured to Ning Zhao for silence, then coughed lightly twice, and asked, "What's your name, where do you live, and how many people are there in your family? Work? Who told you that the City Lord's Mansion is recruiting?"

Not buddy, you are serious.

Ning Zhao thought to himself that I can't make it up now.

Feeling the scorching gaze of the nanny behind her, she also coughed lightly twice, pinched her own palms hard, looked at Xu Mingchao in front of her with teary eyes, and said, "Xu... Madam Xu, My name is Lin Zhao, Shuangmulin. I live in the countryside near Luancheng, and there is... only one younger brother who depends on each other."

"Father died, and my stepmother was unkind. She kicked my younger brother and me out of the house, and even wanted to send my younger brother and me to the Chunfeng Building. My younger brother and I really had no choice but to come to Luancheng to join our relatives."

"I went all the way, but I didn't find that relative. I heard from the elder brother of the city gate guard that the City Lord's Mansion is recruiting workers. I thought to myself, first find a job, and then slowly inquire about that relative."

"Mother Xu, I really really...need this job very much..."

Ning Zhao acted on his own, not noticing the worried look in Xu Mingchao's eyes.It took a while for Xu Mingchao to cough lightly, and reluctantly said: "You don't seem like someone who can deceive people, I... Mammy, I barely believe you today."

"Since your conditions are so miserable, then even if you have passed the selection, what our City Lord's Mansion needs to do is not difficult. After an explanation later, you can do things."

Ning Zhao quietly winked at Xu Mingchao and blinked wildly. Isn't it too easy to agree? Would the nanny at the door believe it?

It's a pity that Xu Mingchao didn't receive Ning Zhao's brainwaves. Instead, he waved his hand and pressed his temples irritably, making a troubled look.

"Really, one or two ran to the city lord's mansion as if they were taking refuge, and they didn't know how to clean up the city lord's mansion when they came."

"You say yes, Su Xin."

The nanny at the door nodded and said, "Oh...they are all poor people, and it's not easy for them. After all, which city is like our Luan city, which is kind and generous, with a simple and honest culture?"

Ning Zhao: Wait, I feel the connotation!
If I didn't guess wrong, Xu Mingchao said this to her, right?

Ning Zhao glared at Xu Mingchao viciously, but in return he let out a chuckle.

"Su Xin, a suitable candidate has been found, let all the people waiting outside go back."

Aunt Suxin was about to get up to open the door, but Ning Zhao hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, looked at Xu Mingchao and said, "Xu... Aunt Xu, can you, can you let my younger brother enter the city lord's mansion too? He is alone, I am really Don't worry about it."

"After all... In this world, we are the only siblings left to depend on each other..."

Ning Zhao was about to cry again as he spoke, but Xu Mingchao lowered his head before answering, Madam Suxin sighed, looked at Xu Mingchao and said, "Mother Xu, forget it, let her elder brother also enter the house Right. This little girl knows etiquette and is good at eloquence, her younger brother should not be too bad."

Xu Mingchao raised his eyes and looked out the door. If he guessed correctly, Ning Zhao's younger brother is Chu Yu. How could they still be in the same space?
He remembered the small ball of paper he was holding, and guessed that Ning Zhao and Chu Yu should have also received the task and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion.Then what will be their mission?

Ning Zhao didn't know what was going on in Xu Mingchao's mind, but he saw his eyeballs rolling around twice, and then he said reluctantly, "All right, all right."

"Hey... it's time to accumulate good deeds..."

Ning Zhao silently rolled his eyes, how serious is Xu Mingchao's acting?Do you really think you are an old lady?

No one could answer this question, Mother Suxin opened the door and let Chu Yu walk in.

She hesitated for two seconds, walked out of the room and took it with her, and said loudly: "Young man, go in and find your elder sister."

"Nurse Xu is kind-hearted and allows both of you, siblings, to enter the mansion to live a comfortable life. You guys, just wait and have fun in the backyard!"

When Chu Yufu raised his eyes, he also saw Xu Mingchao standing upright.

He hesitated for a moment, and then said in a deep voice to Xu Mingchao: "Thank you Mammy, Mammy is really the best person in the world, Mammy, good people will be rewarded."

Xu Mingchao: If you don't want to talk, you don't have to.
