Chapter 290: Stewardship Selection


The emperor was always helpless when it came to Shu Sirui.

After letting him get up, the emperor ordered someone to give Shu Sirui a seat.

Chatting casually with him, the emperor did not forget to test Shu Sirui's tone and wanted him to come back as a general.

However, Shu Sirui's words were all rejections of the emperor, which made him very helpless.

After leaving Shu Sirui to have lunch in the palace, the emperor let him leave.

After leaving the palace, Shu Sirui directly found the residence of Commander An.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing Shu Sirui, the dark commander asked in surprise.

"Seeing that you are not in the palace, I guess you have been rewarded by the emperor."

Looking at Commander An, Shu Sirui sat on the chair.

"It's nothing big.

It's just twenty boards, which is much lighter than a military stick.

Besides, we had good wine and good food yesterday, so it was worth it."

With a smile, Commander An looked at Shu Sirui who was sitting on the chair.

The expression on his face was not happy at all.

It seemed that the twenty slaps were indeed not heavy.

After staying with Commander An for a while, Shu Sirui returned home.

Seeing him coming back, Yunzhu hurriedly greeted him.

"What do you think the emperor wants to ask you about?

Are you in danger?"

Seeing Shu Sirui come back, Butler He quietly left, leaving only Shu Sirui and Yunzhu in the room.

Seeing the worry on Yunzhu's face, Shu Sirui smiled.

He put his arms around Yunzhu and held her in his arms.

"Don't worry, the emperor asked me to come into the palace, but he hasn't seen me for more than half a year, so he wanted to see me.

Nothing happened."

Hearing what Shu Sirui said, Yunzhu looked up from Shu Sirui's arms and looked at Shu Sirui seriously, "You really didn't lie to me."

"Of course it's true.

It's so good.

Why did I lie to you?"

Shu Sirui reached out and scratched Yunzhu's nose, and replied with a smile.

Hearing what he said, Yunzhu finally felt relieved, "After you entered the palace, I was always worried about what dangerous things the emperor would ask you to do.

In the past few hours, I haven't even read a single account."

Leaning into Shu Sirui's arms again, Yunzhu's words were full of grievances.

"Then take a day off.

You have worked hard during this period."

He took Yunzhu and sat on the soft couch together, and the two leaned against each other quietly.

Butler He stood outside the door, listening to the sound that seemed to be silent in the room.

After thinking about it for a while, he estimated that the account book would not be read today.

Thinking that he still had a lot of things to do, Butler He turned around and left to take care of things in the house.

Yunzhu spent the next half month looking at the account books.

During this half month, Butler He was really working hard.

After closing the last ledger, Yunzhu stretched.

Thanks to Butler He, she now had a general understanding of these shops.

"Steward He, you have really worked hard during this period.

I will tell my grandpa and ask him to give you a few days off."

Looking at Butler He, Yunzhu smiled and spoke.

During this period of time when he was reading the account book with him, Butler He had obviously lost a lot of weight.

Of course, Yunzhu also lost weight.

She couldn't bear that Butler He had to work hard to take care of the house's internal affairs after reading the account books with her.

So after reading the account books every day, Yunzhu helped Butler He take care of a lot of things. matter.

"Mrs.

Sun, you're so polite.

It's not hard for me, old slave.

During this time, it's you and Master Sun who are working hard.

You read the account books every day and you help me take care of the housework.

Thank you very much."

After hearing what Yunzhu said, Butler He quickly spoke.

If Yunzhu hadn't helped take care of the housework during this period, he would have been very hard.

With Yunzhu around, he felt much more relaxed.

"It's not a big deal, but you have been working really hard during this period.

Go home and have a good rest.

Don't worry about me being here these days."

Speaking with a smile, Yunzhu looked at Butler He.

Now that Butler He is old after all, his body will not be able to bear it if he keeps working so hard.

When Yunzhu said this, Butler He did not refute.

If he was really allowed to rest, he would naturally be willing.

He believed that even if he was not there, as long as Yunzhu was there, everything in the house would be taken care of properly.

"By the way, speaking of which, there is something I have forgotten to tell you.

This man is old and his memory is not very good.

Please don't take it off."

Hearing what Butler He said, Yunzhu was a little puzzled.

She looked at Butler He and waited for Butler He to answer her questions.

"It's like this.

When you went home before, didn't you ask the old slave to help you find vineyards?

After you left, the old slave kept asking people to search for them.

However, he found two pretty good vineyards, and it took a lot of time.

Money bought it.”

Seeing Yunzhu looking at him, Butler He found out the land deed of the vineyard while explaining Yunzhu's doubts.

"These two are the land deeds of two vineyards.

From now on, these two vineyards will be yours.

If you have time another day, if you are interested, I will take you to take a look."

Handing the land deed to Yunzhu, Butler He said.

Yunzhu looked at the land deed in Butler He's hand, and her nose suddenly felt a little sore.

She then thought of the land deed that Uncle Fu had left for her, which was the land deed for the vineyard.

"Grandma Sun, are you okay?"

Seeing that Yunzhu was in a bad mood, Uncle Fu asked with concern.

"I'm fine."

After shaking her head, Yunzhu sniffed and reached out to take the title deed of the vineyard to calm down her emotions.

After all, Butler He was that old.

Although Yunzhu said it was okay, he still noticed that something was wrong, but he didn't ask.

After all, he was a butler.

"Are those two vineyards far from the capital?"

After a while, Yunzhu's mood finally calmed down.

She looked at Butler He and asked with a smile.

"It's not very far.

If you take a carriage, you can get there in less than two hours.

The two vineyards are not far apart, so if you go to one of them, you can find the other."

This is why Butler He is optimistic about that place, so that when the grapes are harvested, there is no need to rush to one place and then to another.

Hearing what Butler He said, Yunzhu nodded, "Then please find time, Butler He, to take us to see it."

"Yes."

In response, Butler He stood there, waiting for Yunzhu's other instructions.

"If there's nothing else, housekeeper, go down and take a rest.

Thank you for your hard work."

Seeing Butler He standing aside, Yunzhu quickly spoke.

She felt tired, and Butler He would definitely feel tired too.

In response, Butler He saluted Yunzhu and Shu Sirui, and then withdrew.

After Butler He left, Yunzhu put away the land deed to the vineyard, then sat on the soft couch, leaning on Shu Sirui's shoulder.

When Yunzhu was looking at the account books with Butler He, Shu Sirui had been sitting on the soft couch reading.

Now that Yunzhu had finished reading the account books, Shu Sirui put down the book in his hand.

"You're exhausted.

Let Butler He rest.

You should also take a good rest."

Placing a kiss on Yunzhu's forehead, Shu Sirui spoke in a gentle tone.

"I'm okay.

I'm still young after all.

It's just that I've worked hard, Butler He.

After all, I'm so old."

Leaning on Shu Sirui's shoulder, Yunzhu couldn't help but sigh and closed her eyes in contentment.

"If you're tired, go take a nap.

I'll call you during dinner."

Seeing Yunzhu closing his eyes, Shu Sirui spoke.

Yunzhu nodded and continued to lean on Shu Sirui's shoulder.

Shu Sirui felt helpless when Yunzhu was like this.

He put his arms around Yunzhu, stood up, picked her up from the soft couch, and walked towards the bed.

Putting Yunzhu carefully on the bed and covering her with the quilt, Shu Sirui kissed Yunzhu's forehead again and sat on the edge of the bed.

It wasn't until Yunzhu could hear even breathing that Shu Sirui stood up and sat back on the soft couch.

The afternoon sun shines in from the window and shines on the ground in the inner room.

At this time, the inner room is very warm.

Shu Sirui, who is sitting on the soft couch, glances at Yunzhu on the bed from time to time, with a tinge in his eyes.

Pampered.

When Yunzhu woke up, it was already evening and it was time to have dinner.

Sitting up from the bed, Yunzhu looked towards the soft couch.

Shu Sirui was sitting on the soft couch.

When Yunzhu woke up, he called Si Qi and Si Hua into the room to wait on her.

After briefly tidying up, the couple walked towards the dining room in the front yard.

Mr.

He had already arrived.

Seeing the couple coming together, he waved to them.

"Where's Butler He?"

Ever since he started taking over the He family's business, Butler He had always eaten with them.

Now it was dinner time, but he didn't see Butler He who always came earlier than them.

Yunzhu couldn't help but ask. road.

"I asked Butler He to go home.

He has worked hard during this period.

Let him go home and have a good rest.

After all, he is old."

Hearing Yunzhu's question, Mr.

He smiled and spoke.

After all, Butler He had been with him for so many years.

For Mr.

He, Butler He was no longer just a servant.

"Grandpa wants to go with me.

I originally thought that I would tell you during dinner and let Butler He go home and rest for a while."

After Mr.

He finished speaking, a smile appeared on Yunzhu's face.

She smiled and said to Mr.

He.

"Let him go back and rest.

You have been working hard recently.

You should also take a good rest at home."

After listening to Yunzhu's words, Mr.

He nodded and warned Yunzhu.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will take good care of the house's internal affairs."

Yunzhu nodded and agreed.

The servants brought the food and after taking a few bites, Yunzhu suddenly remembered something.

She looked at Mr.

He and asked.

"Speaking of which, Butler He is getting older now.

Is there no suitable candidate in the mansion to take over Butler He's job?"

"I have considered this matter before, but there really is no suitable one in the house.

Although Housekeeper He has a child, his son is smart.

He may be able to get a good name and become a high official in the future.

As for his daughter, now she is She’s not married, but this girl’s family is probably not suitable to be a housekeeper.”

After listening to Yunzhu's words, Mr.

He swallowed the food in his mouth and then replied.

Naturally, he had thought of this problem a long time ago, but he had never found a suitable candidate.

"If Housekeeper He's daughter is willing to be the housekeeper for our He family, there's nothing wrong with that.

But is her daughter the material?"

As soon as Mr.

He finished speaking, Yunzhu asked.

After all, if she were to take over the He family's business in the future, it would be more convenient to have a housekeeper by her side.

"I've seen that child before.

She's smart, but she has a big heart, so she hasn't married yet.

If I remember correctly, she should be a few years older than you.

Because of her marriage, Butler He is worried a lot."

After thinking about it carefully, Mr.

He replied, "If you are interested, I will send someone to call his daughter tomorrow and you can take a look."

"Sure, let's send someone over tomorrow.

If it's really possible, there's nothing wrong with letting her be the housekeeper.

It will be more convenient for me to take her with me when I go out in the future."

Hearing what Yunzhu said, Mr.

He nodded.

Indeed, he had not thought of this before.

If the person who replaces Butler He is a man, it would be really inconvenient for Yunzhu to go out.

After all, the person who replaces Butler He will definitely be a young man.

If Shu Sirui has time and can accompany him, that's okay.

But if something happens, he will inevitably be criticized for a long time, so it would be best if he could find a housekeeper. .

After the matter was discussed, Yunzhu and Mr.

He continued to eat.

After finishing the meal, Yunzhu played a few games of chess with Mr.

He, and then went back to the room with Shu Sirui to rest.

In the blink of an eye, the next day came, Mr.

He sent someone to call Butler He's daughter to his home.

Butler He's daughter is named He Zhen, and she is twenty-three years old this year.

At this age, in this era, she is already an old girl, but He Zhen doesn't care and still goes her own way.

For He Zhen to be like this, Butler He was very anxious at first, but as He Zhen grew older, Butler He also understood that there was nothing he could do about her, so he simply followed her.

Logically speaking, Butler He's daughter is also a domestic slave of the He family, but Mr.

He was grateful for Butler He's hard work and went to the government to cancel the slave status of his daughter and son.

"Greetings to Mrs.

Sun."

After seeing Yunzhu, He Zhen bowed politely.

He Zhen's voice was very nice.

Yunzhu looked at He Zhen and asked her to stand up with a smile.

"You don't have to be so restrained in front of me.

Just raise your head."

Because He Zhen was not married and was not sure whether she could stay with Yunzhu, Shu Sirui was not with her when Yunzhu saw her.

After listening to Yunzhu's words, He Zhen responded, then stood up and raised her head slightly.

Seeing He Zhen like this, Yunzhu understood that she was a woman who knew the rules, which made her feel good about her.

Logically speaking, He Zhen doesn't need to be so respectful to herself after being freed from slavery, but she still does so, which also shows the attitude of Butler He's family.

"Don't be too formal.

Come and sit down.

Let's have a nice conversation."

After greeting He Zhen, Yunzhu sat down at the table.

He Zhen responded, blessed Yunzhu, and then sat down. at the table.

He Zhen's sitting posture is very standard, and you can tell by looking at it that she has been trained.

Such a woman has a high vision, so it is no wonder that she is not married yet.

Although he was freed from slavery, his father was still the housekeeper of the He family, so even if he got married, he could only find someone from a small family and could not get into a big family.

Instructing Si Qi and Si Hua to bring tea and snacks, Yunzhu looked at He Zhen and started chatting with her casually:
