Oops, I accidentally became the palm of a powerful official

The content of the conversation between the housekeeper and Brother Liu did not avoid Erzhu, because he thought it was not a big deal.Erzhu was thinking about how to strike while the iron is hot.

While serving tea to the butler, Erzhu said softly: "There is something I don't know whether to say or not."

He has always been cautious, watching the butler's expression.

Sure enough, just as Er Zhu expected, the housekeeper said: "Say what you want, I can't punish you just because you said something wrong!"

Erzhu nodded, "You said just now that Xiaorong should remember the punishment, but the servant thinks that such a lesson may not be a big deal to her. Because she will have someone to serve her after she is punished. It is not as good as everyone imagined." sad."

The housekeeper frowned, "Who can serve her, it's just a maid."

"The servant heard that she stayed in the yard after she was slapped. Ling'er served water and food. She didn't even need to wash her clothes. Xiaojuan did it by herself. Not only that, but Xiaorong seemed to be angry. When I was punished by the housekeeper, no one helped me to say a word."

"There is such a thing?" The housekeeper couldn't believe it, did the rules really go wrong in the mansion?

Erzhu hurriedly said: "Housekeeper, I also heard this by coincidence and felt a little puzzled, so I told you. What you hear is not what you see, and what you see is believing. Maybe this is not the case, so don't take it to heart. Let's talk about it again." You don't know what people think. You are good enough for everyone."

"Others may not be as sensible as you. You always say that I bought you in to live a peaceful life, but many people don't think so. They may not be reconciled to their current life, and they always dream of one day reaching the sky. .”

"The servant dare not forget the great kindness of the housekeeper. Erzhu is different from others, because Erzhu has no family and no relatives. Although he is only a slave here, he already regards this place as his own home."

Hearing this, the housekeeper was very happy, "Although I don't ask for anything in return, I am very happy that you can think like this. People nowadays don't know how to be grateful. You can truly regard this place as your home and Mr. Shoufu as your own." Your own food and clothing parents, that is the most correct idea."

Brother Liu also helped at this time and said, "Er Zhu is really good. You are loyal to the housekeeper, and the housekeeper will not treat you badly in the future."

"Thank you, butler." Erzhu said quickly.

Hearing Er Zhu's words just now, the housekeeper asked again, "Does Xiao Rong really have such a good relationship in the mansion? I can't tell. I feel that although this girl is smart, she is a little anxious."

"I don't know if it's because I have a good relationship with others, or because I have a more aggressive personality, so I don't dare to offend others!"

Hearing such words, the butler suddenly realized, "Yes, Linger's maid has a gentle personality and never causes trouble. Maybe this is not voluntary at all, but because she is afraid of Xiao Rong, so she did it."

"I don't know the reason, but Xiaojuan is responsible for all the tasks, but she is not thankful for her efforts. Just now when I went to move things outside, I heard some bad remarks about Xiaorong. Talk about things that have nothing to do with me, so the servants dare not go forward to ask."

Brother Liu nodded, "Although the housekeeper requires this, it is impossible for everyone to be able to meet all kinds of people in this world. Even in this small mansion, everyone has different personalities and different starting points and goals. The same. So there will be different behaviors, and it is really difficult to unify."

The steward was still very angry, "Here, the old man thinks that he is tolerant enough to these slaves and slaves, and wants to educate them well. But some people are really not taught. When something like this happens, the old man will naturally have to find out. "

"What the steward said is true. Although it is just a matter between slaves and maidservants, since it happened here, the steward must take care of it. Of course, it may be just mutual help between friends. Normally, the subject She shouldn’t have eaten if she was punished, but that maid gave her food. She should be punished for violating the rules, but I think the maid who delivered the food might also have good intentions.”

"If it's not being coerced, then it's out of kindness. Otherwise, there's no need to curry favor with a girl like Xiao Rong. She did get some limelight in the past. At that time, she gained Miss Sheng's trust and went there to sort out the medicinal materials for a few days. But now Offended Ms. Sheng, it will be even more difficult to stay with Ms. Sheng in the future. These girls in the mansion understand this situation very well, so they will not try to please her. The old man has always dealt with these girls, I still know a thing or two about their inner thoughts.”

Brother Liu said with a smile, "The housekeeper naturally knows everything in the mansion well. These servants and servants are all selected by you, and you have mastered their personalities. If you weren't so capable, how could Lord Shoufu How about entrusting such an important task to you?"

The housekeeper was very happy to receive such a compliment, "It is a lucky thing for me to be able to gain the trust of Lord Shoufu. But the premise is that this old man is loyal to Lord Shoufu and has no second thoughts, and he is as good as he was just now. As Erzhu said, treat this place as your home. If you don’t treat this place as your home, even if you do things seriously, you won’t be able to put so much effort into it.”

He turned his head, looked at Erzhu and said, "So you must work hard and be a good person. In the future, the old man will mention you to Lord Shoufu. When the time comes to give you a promotion or fulfill your wishes, you will not be there. In other words, the premise is that there must be no mistakes.”

"Thank you, butler. Thank you, butler. The servant must be diligent and diligent. With the words of the steward, the servant is more motivated to do things. It is a blessing from God that a person like the servant can serve by the steward's side."

"You don't have to say such things. If it weren't for your diligence and loyalty, then the old man wouldn't be so close to you. Forget it, you don't have to wait here anymore, go and call the maid who delivered the meal."

Hearing such words, Erzhu nodded quickly, "Okay, the servant will go call now."

"Don't disturb other people, the old man just wanted to ask, and didn't want to punish anyone. To be honest, punishing any servant or maid in the mansion is not what the old man is willing to do, but sometimes there is really no way, really You can't turn a blind eye and close your eyes, and you can't let down Lord Shoufu's trust."
