“He has been going all around recently and only came back two days ago.”
“There’s also a manservant who follows him. His name is Luo Xiaoqi, and he’s the nephew of Steward Luo. Because he has a photographic memory, he’s been kept by Master in the accountant’s office.”
“When this old servant was talking about the details of ink making, Luo Xiaoqi was able to remember everything accurately, not missing a single word.” Zhang Shu was a little surprised. He still felt a little pressured, feeling that his ability was too low.
Ye Muyu was not surprised. It was as she had expected.
This explained why Luo Qisheng’s style of doing things was unlike that of a butler from an ordinary family.
One had to know that even Landlord Wang’s family and the county magistrate’s family did not have such a powerful butler.
The only family in the county that could compare to them was the Xie family.
The Xie family was an aristocratic family of officials, with no less than three generations of history. They had a very deep foundation, so they were naturally not something that ordinary small landowners could compare to.
However, what caught Ye Muyu’s attention was Butler Luo’s intelligence and style of doing things.
She sent Zhang Shu over to find out the other party’s background.
As for whether the other party took the initiative to say it or Zhang Shu had to ask indirectly, there was a difference between the two.
It was obvious that Luo Qisheng had understood Zhang Shu’s intentions from the very beginning. He had also told him everything he wanted to know in order to pass the information to Ye Muyu through Zhang Shuts mouth.
It was a pity for such a smart person to be a butler.
Although Ye Muyu sighed, she did not forget the difference in status. As long as Butler Luo was willing to stay in the Chu family, she and Chu Heng would not mistreat him. If he was not willing, they wouldn’t tolerate him.
“Did Butler Luo’s daughter go out today?” Ye Muyu asked.
Zhang Shu nodded. “Butler Luo took the initiative to tell me. His daughter has already married someone. She’s married to a small butler of Master’s business team. ”
“Alright, there’s no need to probe anymore. Dinner should be ready by now. Go and call Ziluo and Lil’ Jin back for dinner.”
“Yes, this servant will go now.” Zhang Shu turned around and left the house to look for Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo, who were watching the commotion by the pond in the village.
He waited for Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo to return.
The two of them each held a fish in their hands.
Zhang Shu was told by the village chief that the fish and lotus roots would be sent over later.
“Mother.” After Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo were done cleaning up, they entered the central room and saw Luo Qisheng and Luo Xiaoqi.
“Mother?” Chu Jin was not afraid of strangers. He asked curiously, “Mother, who is this uncle?”
“This old servant Luo Qisheng greets Young Lady and Young Master.” “This servant Luo Xiaoqi greets Young Lady and Young Master.”
After confirming the identity of the person who had come, the two of them hurriedly bowed.
“Are they also servants of our family?” Chu Jin was slightly surprised.
Chu Ziluo could not help but look at the two of them curiously. Seeing that they were dressed better than her, she was a little confused. If they were her servants, why were they dressed so well?
Chu Jin asked directly, “Hello, but are you wearing silk? It’s so beautiful.”
Luo Qisheng became even more respectful. “Young Master, I’m also very grateful for the Master’s favor. He has left the matters outside to me, so I’m wearing this for convenience.”
“If Young Master likes silk, this old servant will get someone to send some over. However, Master has told me that Young Master is still young and cannot indulge in this. This old servant will only prepare two sets for Young Master to change into.”
“What? You’re going to give it to me? Is it free?” Chu Jin’s eyes widened in greed, and he was so happy that he was dumbfounded..
