Chapter 936 Method
The housekeeper said that the head of the house was not there, and Zhao Shiyi's grandfather and father both breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. Originally, neither of them had figured out how to open this mouth, but now that they heard that the head of the family was not there, the two seemed to have gotten a big opportunity. If the head of the family is not there, then they can't be blamed for not doing things well.
Saying that, the two turned around and left, and the housekeeper in the outer courtyard was a little stunned, not knowing what these two people were here for. But since it's okay, then why did you come here on purpose? But no matter what, he had to follow the two respectfully and send them out.
Walking out, the servants that the two had met just now saluted the three of them again. This time, there were not only two elders of the clan, but also a steward of the outer court, and these servants saluted more happily, and their voices were a few pitches higher than just now.
In such a congratulatory voice, Zhao Shiyi's father and grandfather glanced at each other, and their hearts moved. It seems that the housekeeper of this outer courtyard, the WeChat among these servants, or the power, is really not small. Otherwise, why would these people try so hard to please this steward?
When the two of them came in just now, it wasn't like this all the way. It is true that the servants saluted to them, but their voices were noticeably not as loud as they are now, and the magnitude of the salute was not as standard as it is now.
The two of them are not stupid, of course they can see the gap between the two, and after a little thought, they will understand the truth in this. The two of them couldn't help but move in their hearts, and they glanced at each other, and they both understood the meaning in each other's eyes.
Zhao Shiyi's grandfather even gave his son a look and let him speak. In fact, Zhao Shiyi's father also wanted his father to speak, but who made the family old, who made the family brains fast, who let the family give themselves a look first, and who let them not speak, people have already begun to stare at it.
There was no way, he could only bite the bullet and talk to the housekeeper very bluntly: "Butler, the weather is really good today." ”
The housekeeper was also stunned, he was about to walk out of the courtyard gate, why did this person suddenly say such a sentence. He looked up at the sky, and there were dark clouds in the sky, and he saw that it was going to rain, but how could this man say that the weather was good.
How blind he must be to open his eyes and say nonsense, but he can't say this kind of heartfelt words. He could only nod his head in response: "Yes, yes." ”
After saying that, the housekeeper was embarrassed, what should I say, the weather is so good, it is about to rain, and it is estimated that the seedlings in the field should be happy. But this is not their serious conversation, and none of these two people will care about the seedlings in the field, whether they need to be watered by rain. Alas, this is really not easy to accept, he can only nod his head in agreement.
After seeing that he said a word, the housekeeper didn't say too much, and didn't let himself find the way to continue talking, and Zhao Shiyi's father was also a little uncomfortable.
This housekeeper is too bad at looking at him, and he takes the initiative to talk, why doesn't he know how to say a few more words, and then ask our father and son what is the matter with this trip. Will it kill you? This person can't do it, it's really not clever enough. I don't know what the eldest nephew of the head of the family thinks, using such a stupid person as a housekeeper, isn't it begging for hardship.
But I can't help it, now I have to ask for others, and I have to do it hard. People can only say more by themselves if they don't speak, so Zhao Shiyi's father cleared his throat again and said: "Ah, housekeeper, when the head of the house comes back, you must tell him that our father and son have run this trip." ”
He was also awkward in his heart, how could he sound awkward, and it was uncomfortable to say it himself. I've never done this kind of thing, and if I had any requests before, of course I would mention it directly, but I really haven't done anything like this.
Not to mention that their family is now down-and-out to rely on the clan's weekly records, but they really haven't said that they have asked anyone's family. Don't look at them eating and using the clan now, but they don't need to bother to please them for something.
This is also the special situation of the Zhao family, and the clan has a large group of idlers. Usually these people don't need to do anything, just study. If you have the ability, you can take the merit test, and after the test, you will be able to occupy a higher status in the clan and get better resources. If you don't have the ability, you can only be unknown for a lifetime. Of course, it is not worrying to eat and drink as a member of the Zhao family, but don't think about higher requirements.
This situation is a rule handed down from the ancestors, and no one complains about anything, after all, it is a blessing to be able to live well without having to work. Naturally, there are special cases in this, that is, there are a few families that are close to the branches, so the natural treatment will be better.
If it weren't for the fact that Zhao Shiyi's family really couldn't get on the stage, they would know that they were a loser, and the clan was really disappointed, and it would be impossible for their family to live like this.
You must know that Zhao Shiyi's grandfather is the younger brother of the head of the family, and in that generation, he can be regarded as going out to do things. With such a good opportunity, it is impossible not to go to your own home to earn more money. So in fact, the family background of those families who are close to the descendants will not be too thin.
The ancestors of the Zhao family left a lot of family business, which has been accumulated from generation to generation, although the burden is large, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and it is all placed there. These clans, supporting the descendants and several families live a much higher life than the clansmen, that is not a problem.
This also caused Zhao Shiyi's grandfather and father to never bend his noble waist to beg someone to do something. If it weren't for such a big problem for this son/grandson today, the two would never have thought of trying to please others for such a humble matter.
The housekeeper over there was still strange, and he didn't know what this clan master meant by this, so he could only follow this person's words and say: "Seventh Master (that is, Zhao Shiyi's father's ranking), don't worry, when the head of the family comes back, I will definitely report this matter of you and the old lady to the head of the family." ”
He originally thought that he could reassure the other party by answering like this, but who knew that as soon as he finished speaking, the seventh master immediately said: "Then how will you report to my eldest nephew at that time?"
This time, the housekeeper of the outer courtyard was completely stupid, how should he report it, he just said directly, the down-and-out seventh master and his father have been here, so he won't have it. He didn't know what these two were here for, and besides, he had just asked them and said they were fine, but now he had to ask himself how to report.
