What she said surprised me. To be precise, it should be reasonable and unexpected.

My clothes were stained by leaves, which no one expected.

Normally, she could ignore it. But she said "I'm sorry" just right.

Because this was a problem on her territory, even though it was an accident, she should say something.

Before I could answer, Han Qianshou said doubtfully: "Why are you so embarrassed?"

Han Qianshou reacted quickly. He glanced at my clothes and said, "A leaf, what a big deal!"

He said and patted my clothes directly. The leaves fell and the soil was all stained on my clothes.

I couldn't laugh or cry immediately.

Now it's better, it was just a few drops of dirty water, now it's directly "an impressionist painting".

"Oh, brother, it's my turn to say I'm sorry now." Han Qianshou said very guiltily.

"It's okay!" I said calmly.

In this case, the leaves should be gently picked up from the clothes.

Han Qianshou didn't think much about it at the time, just thinking about patting a leaf.

You can do this when the weather is fine. After a few shots, the dirt on your body will also be patted off.

It had just rained and the leaves were wet. His patting was self-defeating.

Han Qianshou has a rough personality and doesn't pay attention to details.

Since ancient times, those who achieve great things must be bold and careful, and details determine everything.

He is just bold and careless, and he doesn't know how to adapt. This is doomed. He can only make small troubles, but he can't plan the big picture.

"Sorry!" Aunt Qiu said politely again.

I can still understand the "sorry" you just said.

I didn't expect this "sorry" at all.

If I had some relationship with her just now, I really have nothing to do with her this time.

Aunt Qiu explained with a smile: "It just rained. We have gently knocked the leaves on the trees and swept the leaves on the ground in time. I didn't expect that such a situation would happen again. Anyway, we did it

It's not good, please forgive me."

When she said this, she showed the etiquette of treating guests very thoughtfully.

I saw a long pole next to the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, which must have been used to break the leaves.

Before guests come, clean the yard and clear the leaves on the trees. This is a sign of respect for the guests.

Otherwise, when guests come to your home, even though it is a courtyard, they will give the impression that it is dirty, and the guests will have a bad impression of the host.

The sweet-scented osmanthus tree cannot be beaten hard, but can only be beaten lightly. If you hit it too hard, the flowers will fall off.

Before I could answer, Han Qianshou spoke.

"Haha!" Han Qianshou smiled to ease the embarrassment, "It's okay, it's okay."

When Aunt Qiu saw that I was silent, she added, "Where did you buy this dress, Mr. Gao? I will send someone to buy you an exact one right away."

She spoke in a steady voice, neither high nor low. Her words showed respect for the guests and the host's apology to the guests.

I guess she should be Wan Xiyue's housekeeper, or someone more important to Wan Xiyue. At least her words still have weight in the Wan family.

"It doesn't matter, it's just a piece of clothing. I still have new clothes in the car. I'll just change into one." I said and got into the car.

Fortunately, I bought some extra clothes yesterday and I just need them now.

As I was changing my clothes, I was thinking, I have to take these clothes back to be washed.

I don’t know if Stupid Cat can do laundry.

I thought about it, and imagined a stupid cat washing my clothes, which seemed very funny.

I changed my clothes and got out of the car.

Aunt Qiu stood there and waited respectfully.

When she saw me changing my clothes, she said politely: "Mr. Gao, give me the clothes just now, and I will take them to be dry-cleaned for you."

I smiled and said, "No need."

What she said this time was not surprising to me.

This woman is smart and capable, pays attention to details, handles things, is both modest and neither humble nor overbearing, and handles it just right, leaving people speechless.

Although the clothes were soiled at her home, although it was not her responsibility, she should compensate for it.

She first adopted the first method of compensation and helped me buy a new one. This is the best method for most people.

Just like when you go to a high-end restaurant or hotel to eat, if there is water or oil on the ground and the guest falls, it is the restaurant's responsibility and the restaurant will compensate. However, is this really only the restaurant's responsibility?

Now that we are grown up and can go to restaurants to eat, why don’t we have eyes when we walk and don’t look at ourselves?

But then again, if you fall down while eating at a small stall, the stall owner will definitely not compensate you, but will say that it is your own responsibility.

After I refused the first method, she changed to the second method and did the laundry for me.

I still haven't accepted it.

I looked at her, and her expression was awkward, a little surprised, and at a loss.

I guess she didn't know what to do or what to say.

Maybe she has a hundred ways to compensate in her heart. She doesn't know which one I want. She has been rejected twice. If she is rejected again, she will lose face.

So, she was thinking about how to satisfy me.

I randomly picked a topic: "How long has Aunt Qiu been in Wanjia?"

"Twenty-one years."

This man is so shrewd.

When most people hear this question, they will answer a rough number, about twenty years, or more than twenty years.

But she answered so accurately.

I said in a joking tone: "If you calculate so clearly, how can you figure out when to retire?"

"Mr. Gao is joking, I will stay with Wanjia until the day I die and will not retire."

I subconsciously raised my eyelids and was slightly surprised: "Very good! Wan Xiyue should give you a lifetime achievement award."

She smiled politely: "Mr. Gao was joking, let's go in."

Han Qian put his hands behind his back and said as he walked: "I thought there were many plum blossoms in Hongmei Villa, but there are only two osmanthus trees."

"Mr. Han doesn't know. There is a plum garden in our backyard. If you are interested, you can come and enjoy the plum blossoms when they bloom. As for the two osmanthus trees at the door, they symbolize wealth and good things come in pairs."

"So that's it! Hoho!" Han Qianshou smiled sheepishly, "Only those of you who are particular about life do this. I, a rough man, don't do this."

As we spoke, she led us into Wanjia's living room.

The entire living room is decorated with a strong Chinese style.

There is a four-part screen at the entrance of the living room, with plums, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums. There are two vases over one meter high on the left and right sides. Going around the screen, there is a mahogany round table in the middle of the living room, which looks very valuable.

Further forward, there is a coffee table with tea sets for three people already placed on it.

"Mr. Gao is joking. Mr. Gao, Mr. Han, please take a seat and serve tea."

Soon, two girls came over and sat down at the tea table. They cleaned the teacups skillfully and poured two more cups of tea.

"Mr. Gao, Mr. Han, please have some tea first."

Han Qianshou and I sat down.

Aunt Qiu said again: "I'll go and ask the lady to come."

"Okay!" I replied politely.
Chapter completed!
