Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 474 Beating Butler Li

Liu Banxian didn't pay too much attention to Zhiyi, although he now suspected that Su Jing's marriage was Zhiyi.

As a fortune teller, he has professional ethics.

Su Jing and Zhiyi's marriage is their own business. If he got involved in it, it would violate his principles.

Returning to Uncle Renyuan's house, Liu Banxian immediately started to stir up the room.

Su Jing was talking about side rooms, but there were more than one or two side rooms in Uncle Renyuan's mansion.

Anyway, there was no need to spend any money, so Liu Banxian was quite happy.

Although it is a long distance from Uncle Renyuan's Mansion to Qinhuai Flower House, Liu Banxian will have to walk a few more steps if he wants to have fun in the future.

But Liu Banxian was very happy when he thought that the rent saved could allow him to go to Xiangyun Pavilion many more times.

"What do you do for food? You can go wrong with such a small thing!"

"Butler Li, we know, we won't do it next time!"

……

In the yard, Butler Li was scolding several servants. Different from the respectful manner when facing Su Jing, Butler Li's expression was very majestic in front of the servants.

This is not to say that Butler Li is very harsh, but as a steward, he must establish his own prestige. Otherwise, if he cannot control his servants, then he will not be able to serve as a steward.

"Butler Li, what's the matter?"

Liu Banxian asked curiously.

When Butler Li saw it was Liu Banxian, he immediately bowed and said: "Liu Banxian, it's not a big deal, I just want them to remember it."

"Oh."

Liu Banxian nodded, somewhat familiar with Butler Li.

He scolded his servants when no one was around, but when he came he said it was no big deal.

It's obvious that Butler Li is kind-hearted at heart, and he is strict with his servants to prevent them from making mistakes.

Following Liu Banxian's return, not long after, a servant came to the porter's side to deliver a message. It was a servant of Uncle Chengyi's Mansion, who came to deliver a message that Su Jing would not come back for dinner.

"It seems that Mr. Su from the capital is quite familiar. I'm going to visit Uncle Cheng."

In the kitchen, Liu Banxian said while eating.

Su Jing, the master, is not here, and now everyone eats in the kitchen.

Liu Banxian was also a casual person. He couldn't do anything wrong by going to the restaurant, so he dealt with it in the kitchen.

However, he spoke casually, and no one else in the house, not even Butler Li, responded.

It is a rule that servants are strictly prohibited from talking about their masters.

Liu Banxian said a few more words, but no one answered, which made him feel bored. After eating quickly, Liu Banxian went out again.

The nightlife in Yingtian is much more exciting than during the day.

……

The gate of Uncle Chengyi's Mansion.

Su Jing had already got on the carriage, and Liu Bowen watched Su Jing leave slowly.

I talked a lot with Su Jing today, and Liu Bowen benefited a lot from it. He just felt that Su Jing was a bottomless pit, and he could always come up with new things.

"Mr. Su, I don't know what kind of changes you will bring to Ming Dynasty in the future. I don't know if I, an old man, will have a chance to see it."

Liu Bowen sighed secretly, then turned around and returned to the mansion.

Su Jing was sitting in the carriage of Uncle Chengyi's Mansion, feeling a little tired.

Today, I walked around outside first, then got lost, and then chatted a lot with Liu Bowen.

It is quite tiring both physically and mentally.

The clatter of horseshoes was slow. Su Jing sat in the carriage with her eyes closed to relax, and she soon fell asleep.

"Uncle Ren Yuan, here we are."

Following the groom's reminder, Su Jing woke up.

"Oh, thank you very much. Please help me tell Uncle Chengyi to let him come to my house as a guest next time."

Su Jing said to the groom, and then got out of the car.

"Yes, Uncle Renyuan, I will definitely convey it to you."

The groom nodded and went back with the carriage.

It was getting late at this time, and the bright moon hung high in the night sky.

But the road was not too dark, because there were big lanterns hanging at the door of every house.

In this residential area, it is very good to have such lighting at night.

After all, lighting is an expensive resource for ordinary people.

In ordinary people's homes, they just light an oil lamp at night. Those who can hang a lantern at the door at night are either rich or noble.

Su Jing knew that Yingtian's night was very exciting, but he was really tired today, so he might as well wash up and stay at home.

As soon as he entered the yard, Butler Li immediately greeted him and gave a brief report on today's work.

Su Jing was walking and listening, and suddenly frowned and said, "Liu Banxian went out after eating?"

"Yes, uncle, Liu Banxian went out as soon as he finished dinner."

Butler Li replied.

Su Jing asked curiously: "Then did he say where he went? When will he come back?"

Butler Li said: "No, Liu Banxian only said to leave the back door open at night and he will come back naturally."

Ok?
  Su Jing frowned slightly. The old man Liu Banxian was really full of energy. He ran outside with him during the day, and he still had the energy to go out looking for flowers and flowers at night.

Could it be that folk remedy?
  Su Jing suddenly remembered Liu Banxian and the men's remedies he had mentioned. I'm afraid it might also have some effect on replenishing energy.

"Then leave a back door for him."

Su Jing replied lightly without saying much.

"Yes, uncle."

Butler Li bowed slightly and said, "Uncle, there is one more thing I want to tell you today."

"Say."

Su Jing took off her coat, and the hot water prepared by her servants was delivered to her.

Life here is completely different from life in Lishui County. Daily life matters basically do not require any instructions from Su Jing. These servants will be very discerning and prepare in advance.

Su Jing wiped her face with hot water. Butler Li on the side said: "Uncle, there is a house outside the wall of the uncle's house. It should be the property of the uncle's house. However, two residents moved in a few days ago and have been evicted. ”

In fact, this matter is just a very small matter. Normally, Butler Li can report it or not.

The authority of a housekeeper is more than enough to handle matters in the small courtyard of Uncle Renyuan's mansion.

However, Butler Li still informed Su Jing. When he learned about this, he knew that there must be something wrong with it.

If you don't say it, you may get some benefits in the future.

But he was still not sure what kind of master Su Jing was. As a housekeeper, he had to recognize his own identity.

Sure enough, when Su Jing, who was wiping her face, heard this, she immediately stopped:

"Butler Li, can you say it again?"

"Yes, uncle."

Butler Li bowed and immediately repeated what he had just said.

Su Jing listened and frowned slightly: "The title deed of this house should indicate all the drawings of the house."

"Yes, uncle, do you need me to bring it over?"

Butler Li said immediately.

Su Jing waved her hand: "No, as long as there is one above. Then the residents who were evicted before know why they moved in."

Butler Li can realize that there is a problem, and Su Jing can naturally realize it too. “It was said that it was rented, but when I was kicked out, I didn’t take out the deed, so I don’t know if it’s true or not.”

Butler Li replied respectfully, lowering his head so that he could not see the expression on his face.

"And this kind of..."

Su Jing was about to speak when she suddenly turned to Butler Li and said, "Butler Li, didn't you investigate this matter?"

"Although this matter is not serious, I am just a housekeeper and I don't dare to make the decision without permission, so I wait to inform my uncle after he comes back."

Butler Li replied, still lowering his head and unable to see the expression on his face clearly.

"Raise your head, Butler Li."

Su Jing said lightly.

Originally, Su Jing thought it was just an ordinary thing, but the way Butler Li informed Su Jing made her notice something strange.

This Butler Li must have done it on purpose.

This thing seems very ordinary, but you can see your temperament through this thing.

Being appointed as the housekeeper by Queen Ma must not be a fool's errand.

But now, Butler Li seems to be using his brain a little more.

"Yes, uncle."

Butler Li raised his head and looked directly at Su Jing.

Su Jing didn't say anything, just looked at Butler Li. For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall fell silent.

The servant carrying water on the side had an ugly expression. The atmosphere was quite depressing for him.

Su Jing did not deliberately look directly at Butler Li, but continued to wipe her face and hands, occasionally looking at Butler Li casually.

After a while, Butler Li began to sweat on his forehead.

Su Jing obviously behaved very casually in front of him, but he felt an invisible sense of oppression.

Although Su Jing has never been an official in this life, she was a CEO in her previous life.

Su Jing knew very well what the momentum of a 'superior' should be like.

"Steward Li, next time you tell me something like this, remember to check it out."

Su Jing said calmly: "Whatever you have in mind, you don't have to think about it, just say it."

"As a person, I like to be straightforward the most, and the thing I hate the most is beating around the bush."

While talking, Su Jing had already put the towel back into the basin, walked to the table, picked up a cup of tea and drank it.

Butler Li's calm face was no longer calm, and he immediately knelt down and said: "Uncle, calm down, I don't dare to do it anymore!"

"Don't dare to do anything?"

Su Jing turned around and looked down at Butler Li, her eyes fixed on Butler Li.

Butler Li had cold sweat dripping from his forehead: "I shouldn't be playing tricks with my uncle. I will investigate this matter clearly."

Su Jing smiled and said: "That's pretty much it. Although I am an earl and you are my housekeeper, I don't want to hear about anything being used to pressure people in Renyuan's house."

"There are only a few people in this house. If something happens that makes me unhappy, it will be easy to find out."

"That's it for today. Don't let anyone bother me anymore. You can all go down."

After Su Jing finished speaking, she turned and left.

Butler Li waited until Su Jing was completely out of sight before he stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

At this moment, he regretted it endlessly.

Even though Empress Ma had told him before, he still couldn't hold it back.

"You, come out with me immediately!"

After figuring it out, Butler Li immediately asked the servants on the side to follow him and set off.

This matter has not been done well, and we must find a way to make up for it.

"Yes, Butler Li."

The servant nodded and followed.

……

Forbidden City, inside Fengxian Hall.

"Hahahaha, I didn't expect such a coincidence, it's really interesting!"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly.

Lao Zhu knew everything about the matter between Su Jing and Zhiyi.

After all, we are now in the capital, and the news can be delivered almost simultaneously.

The incident at Su Jing's house hit Zhiyi, and Lao Zhu really wanted to see what would happen next.

As for those guys who operate illegally and enrich themselves, Lao Zhu is not worried.

With Su Jing's ability, she didn't need to take action on this trivial matter.

"What's the matter, Chongba, is there anything happy again?"

Queen Ma appeared with a smile on her face and a food box in her hand.

Zhu Yuanzhang said unexpectedly: "Sister, why are you here?"

Empress Ma walked slowly to Lao Zhu, opened the food box, and took out a bowl of soup: "The doctor at the Imperial Hospital said that the weather has turned hot recently, and you have been working on government affairs for a long time, which makes it easy to get angry, so I took some time to drink. Lily and lotus seed soup will help you relieve your internal heat."

"The girl still feels sorry for me!"

Lao Zhu was very happy, picked up the bowl and drank it all.

Queen Ma said hurriedly: "Slow down, drink some soup. What are you doing in a hurry?"

"hey-hey."

Lao Zhu laughed and said, "I can't change the habits I've had for so many years."

Queen Ma rolled her eyes at him and said, "You will always be this virtuous!"

"Why are you so happy? You should tell me."

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately stood up and said: "Sister, I have to talk to you about this matter. This kid Su Jing is really interesting..."

Lao Zhu then told Queen Ma in detail about Su Jing and Zhiyi.

"Is there still this?"

Queen Ma was quite surprised and said: "Mr. Su actually met this princess from Waxi Province of the Yi ethnic group, and something like this happened."

"Haha, that's what makes it interesting!"

Lao Zhu laughed and said, "I'm afraid Zhiyi will hold a grudge against Su Jing, Uncle Renyuan."

Empress Ma immediately said: "Chongba, stop joking around. Now that you know this, won't you handle it? Mr. Su's reputation will be ruined!"

Queen Ma knew Su Jing's character very well.

Queen Ma was also quite anxious about something like this that would damage her character.

Lao Zhu said calmly: "Sister, don't worry, if Su Jing can't even handle this matter, then what else is he going to do?"

"It's just a trivial matter. Besides, sister, don't you think that Su Jing and this Yi princess from the west of Waxi are similar in age. If there is a chance, they can match up."

Lao Zhu also said this casually on a whim.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Queen Ma immediately thought about this possibility. Is it possible for Su Jing and Zhi Yi?
  Seeing that Empress Ma stopped talking, Lao Zhu smiled and said, "Sister, you don't really think this is okay, do you? How about you try to help me get it done?"

Empress Ma shook her head and said, "Mr. Su has said it a long time ago. He only cares about fate. Whether we are suitable or not is up to Mr. Su. Now that the two of us already have this relationship, I don't need to do anything." "

"And you, Chongba, don't think about it in front of Yue Lao Matchmaker. Mr. Su's marriage is a major matter. You must not force it!" (End of Chapter)
