215 Chapter 215 Choice
Sun Hongliang finally understood what was being implied. Zhou Huaiming wasn’t unhappy with him but was just letting him choose a new master.
He couldn’t help but fall into deep thought. To be honest, both sides had advantages and disadvantages, depending on what kind of life he wanted.
After hearing that, Manager Liu hoped he would choose Zhou Ying’s side because life there was relatively more comfortable. With his help, Sun Hongliang’s future days would be almost set.
However, this matter concerned Sun Hongliang’s future, so Manager Liu could not decide for him.
After a while, Sun Hongliang raised his head and said, “General, I would like to go back and discuss it with my family.”
“That’s fine. This is a major turning point in your life. You and your family should have a unified opinion.” Zhou Huaiming nodded in agreement.
After the two left Zhou Huaiming’s study, Sun Hongliang immediately asked for Manager Liu’s opinion.
Manager Liu, on the other hand, did not respond directly. Instead, he analyzed the pros and cons for him.
After Sun Hongliang heard this, he was slightly biased toward Zhou Ying because he didn’t like the life of fighting and killing. In addition, after living a comfortable life for a few months, he suddenly dreamed of a relatively ordinary life.
After returning, he didn’t reveal his thoughts but asked for his family’s opinion. Fortunately, they finally agreed for him to head over to Zhou Ying’s side.
The next morning, Sun Hongliang told his decisions to Zhou Huaiming, and Zhou Huaiming took him to Zhou Ying to complete the handover.
Once everything was done, Zhou Huaiming set off after another meal.
Zhou Ying had handed over the matter of training the child beggars to Sun Hongliang and Gu Chengrui.
Qiu Yu and the others also signed contracts to sell themselves as servants, with Sun Hongliang as an example.
In the blink of an eye, it was already autumn, the season with the most rain.
But there was still no rain. Refugees had begun to appear in the town, and the village had begun to form a patrol team because of the occasional thefts.
Early in the morning, Zhou Ying and her husband were sleeping soundly when they suddenly heard a hurried knock on the door, followed by Er Zhuang’s rabid dog.
The two woke up one after another.
Gu Chengrui heard the anxious voices outside and scrambled to his feet. “Babe, from the sound of it, something must have happened. You should get up quickly.”
Zhou Ying nodded unwillingly, then took some clothes and put them on.
After Gu Chengrui put on his clothes, he immediately ran out and shouted, “I’m coming, I’m coming; don’t worry.”
“Boss, something big has happened.” Chang Shun immediately shouted anxiously when he heard his voice.
When Gu Chengrui heard Chang Shun’s voice, he was stunned for a moment. He had assumed that something had occurred in the village, but he had not anticipated that it would be from the manor.
“What happened, Chang Shun?” he asked.
“The manor was robbed last night, and we lost five sheep and two cows. Two of the people on duty were injured, and the rest are all unconscious.” Chang Shun replied with a perturbed expression.
This was his mistake. If he were to pay for it, he would go bankrupt.
“Wait a moment, and I’ll get the carriage.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he informed Zhou Ying, took the first aid box, and put it on the carriage. He rushed to the manor with Chang Shun.
After Zhou Ying heard the situation, she frowned. It seemed that someone was targeting them, and there were many of them; just thinking of this gave her a headache.
She got up and tidied up the house. She took some soy milk and steamed buns from the interspace and hurried to the manor after breakfast.
When they arrived at the manor, the three unconscious people had already woken up while Gu Chengrui was bandaging the two injured people.
“Uncle Chang, do you know who did it, or did they leave any clues behind?” he asked Chang Shun.
