After lunch, the family took a tea break in the lobby, and it was at this time that Zhang San came.
He was not alone, there were more than a dozen people following him. One of them, a woman in red and green, looked particularly familiar. Ye Zhenzhen recognized this person. She was none other than Aunt Wu, a famous official lady in the capital.
Zhang Sanxian stepped forward and reported to Ye Zhenzhen: "Master, madam, I went to the dental shop to select some people according to your request. Aunt Wu heard that you wanted to serve, so she took the initiative to bring some people over to select for you. Can you please
Need to recruit some more manpower?”
As he spoke, he asked the servants who had been selected to stand up and introduced: "The villain has selected seven people in total, one as a porter, two as a sweeper, one as a washer, one as a cook, and two as servants. They are of pure origin.
, I have all worked as servants before, but I came out to find another job because my master failed. My abilities and family background are trustworthy, so please let the masters decide."
The seven selected people all stood with their hands bowed and their eyes lowered. Ye Zhenzhen said: "Everyone raise their heads."
They all raised their heads, but they did not dare to look directly at their master. Their eyes were not wandering, and their expressions were neither humble nor arrogant. It was obvious that they had been trained in good etiquette. Ye Zhenzhen nodded secretly, feeling satisfied in her heart.
"I trust your judgment in choosing people. I think they are good, so just keep them all."
Zhang Sanfei Wu Xiameng, from a rouge shop clerk in a small county town, to now the chief steward of Jingning's house. His abilities have grown with his experience, helping Ye Zhenzhen manage the huge house in an orderly manner.
, ability is beyond doubt.
Ye Zhenzhen did not examine it carefully, and after expressing her approval to Zhang San, she said: "My parents are old, and we can't go in and out without a carriage. It just so happened that I got a horse recently. I will ask someone to send it over later, and then let the carriage go."
Ma Xing builds a carriage, which will be convenient for travel in the future. In this way, it will be equipped with a handlebar..."
"No, no, we don't need so many servants."
Ever since Zhang San and others came in, Aunt Ye had been sitting on pins and needles, watching her daughter appoint seven servants for her in the blink of an eye. She was already frightened, because she thought of her son-in-law's persuasion, so she didn't
reject.
However, now that carriages and horses were needed, she felt that it was too arrogant, so she ignored the presence of outsiders, interrupted her daughter's words, and refused again and again.
Ye Zhenzhen sighed, and Cui Weizhen patted the back of her hand. Just as she was about to persuade others again, Wei Jinyu on the side united the front with them.
I only heard him persuade me: "Mother-in-law, my eldest sister has worked hard to provide you and your father with a car. Your two elders' fields are outside the city. Without a car and horses, it will be inconvenient to go back and forth. Besides, Dai Lin has grown up.
On weekdays, we also have to go out to meet friends, or to study and worship talents. If we don’t have a carriage and horses, how can we make it happen? One more is not too much, one less is not enough, so don’t refuse."
Ye Dailin had already gone back to his room to study his homework, and he couldn't give him any ideas at the moment. Under the attack of his daughter and son-in-law, Aunt Ye was finally defeated: "That's all, I say one word, and you have a hundred words waiting for you.
Please advise us. Since it is your filial piety, your father and I will accept it."
"If your children are filial, the old lady is very lucky."
Aunt Wu, who had never been able to find a chance to speak, quickly stood up and complimented her a few words, and said to Ye Zhenzhen with a smile: "Mrs. Ning Guo, among the people brought by the peasant woman right now, there happens to be a handlebar type. Wu Dawei is a man.
He is honest and steady, driving is the most stable and reliable, and is the most suitable to respect the old man and his wife. Mr. Wu, come and give Mrs. Ning Guo a look."
A dark-skinned, honest-looking young man stood up. He seemed a little nervous and pinched his clothes at a loss. It took him a long time to hold back a sentence from his mouth: "Young man Wu Da, I have seen a very noble man."
Ye Zhenzhen narrowed her eyes, sat up straight, and asked: "Which house did Wu Da work in before?"
Wu Da didn't seem to expect that she would ask this question. His expression became more and more nervous, and there was even a trickle of sweat on his forehead. He stuttered and replied: "Hui, Madam, I used to be the former doctor of the Ministry of Rites, Su
I am a servant of the house. I am clumsy and clumsy, and I don’t like my master. I just do some errands on weekdays. I would like to ask my wife to take this villain in regardless of my past grudges.”
He was actually a servant of Su Chongde, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites.
Ye Zhenzhen almost forgot about this man. The grudge he had with his son in Linxi County, as well as the grudge he had for plotting against Cui Weizhen's late father, all came to an end with his death. But he didn't expect that many years later,
And today he met his old servant.
The handlebar type followed his master out and knew his master's whereabouts very well. Generally speaking, he was a confidant. The Cui Mansion and the Su Mansion had always had a grudge. No wonder Wu Da was so nervous and anxious, and hurriedly broke off the relationship with his old master.
The handlebar style was not difficult to find. Ye Zhenzhen really didn't need to take risks to find such a well-connected servant, so she was a little resistant on her face.
Wu Da seemed to see it, and immediately knelt down and even kowtowed: "Please have mercy, madam. I am an old slave of a sinner. I have a taboo background and have never been able to find a new owner. Today I heard that you are noble."
The housekeeper of the house came to pick a person, so I boldly asked Aunt Wu, hoping to be chosen by you, Madam. There are old people above me and young people below, and they all rely on me to live alone. Please have mercy on me, Madam, give me some money.
A job to make a living."
Aunt Wu also stood up to intercede: "A common woman would like to apologize to you, Madam. Logically speaking, I shouldn't choose a servant of this level for you. It's just that Mrs. Wu's family situation is really pitiful, and a common woman can't bear it, so she has the courage to do so."
I'm offending you. If a civilian woman dares to use all her wealth as a guarantee, Wu Da's character must be trustworthy. You are compassionate, so just give him a way to survive."
Aunt Ye was soft-hearted. After hearing what happened to Wu Da, she felt that he was very pitiful, so she said to her daughter: "Zhen'er, this Wu Da is very pitiful. How about keeping him?"
Ye Zhenzhen frowned slightly. Although she is a soft-spoken person, she really doesn't like to be kidnapped by others' morals. The way Aunt Wu and Mr. Wu have determined her attitude is really unpleasant.
The co-author thinks that because of her reputation, she will be "extremely merciful" and accept people? If she doesn't accept them, I'm afraid she will become a vicious person who is just trying to gain fame.
She was unhappy and didn't care what the other party would say. Just when she was about to refuse, Cui Weizhen held her hand down.
He shook his head at her. He didn't say much at that time, but settled for her: "Since my mother-in-law likes it, then accept it."
Ye Zhenzhen suppressed the doubts in her heart, and said, "Okay. I hope you will have the same ambition and be loyal to the Lord in the future."
