Chapter 14: The Steward's Request
"Hungry, aren't you?" Steward Yu saw Wu Liang's appearance, pinched his beard and smiled.
"Hehe......" Wu Liang touched the back of his head and smiled.
"Wait a minute. Steward Yu also smiled, "I'll eat right away." ”
"It's okay, I wasn't too hungry. Wu Liang said.
But how can he not be hungry? He has been here for a day, and he has not eaten a single meal!
He only ate one prison meal in the morning today - a nest head.
Although that thing is hungry, it can't stand the energy consumption of this day!
Wu Liang's stomach was already rumbling with hunger.
He thought he would be able to have lunch here, but no one called him!
He didn't dare to ask.
No, I'm hungry until now.
"Goo......
He said he wasn't hungry, but his body was honest enough to make a request for energy.
Steward Yu couldn't help but glance at Wu Liang with a smile.
"Hey......
Wu Liang smiled awkwardly.
Why are you so uncompetitive?
"You come with me. Steward Yu glanced at Wu Liang with a smile and said.
Wu Liang followed Steward Yu to a corner of this courtyard, and Steward Yu took out a cake like a trick and said, "Hungry, you eat first." Pay attention to your image when you eat for a while, don't be like a starving ghost, although our housewife has a kind personality, but this rule is still very serious. ”
Wu Liang took the cake, but he didn't rush to eat it, but looked at Steward Yu and asked, "What about Steward Yu, aren't you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry, I'll eat in a while, I don't need it. ”
"That's it......" Wu Liang looked at the cake in his hand, took a bite, and said vaguely in his mouth, "Thank you, Steward Yu!"
"Eat slowly, don't choke!" Butler Yu looked at Wu Liang with loving eyes, he was so old, he dedicated his life to the Earl's Palace, he was injured when he was young, and he couldn't give birth since then, which also made him put his whole mind on the Earl's Palace, but when he was old, he didn't have any children, although the Earl and the Countess were good to him, but he gradually felt powerless, thinking about when he would retire, that is, ...... There is no one to give him a pension!
It would be nice to adopt a child when you were young.
Butler Yu has been thinking about this question a lot lately.
Now that he is old and has no energy, although the earl wants to raise himself in the mansion, in the heart of the butler, he still does not want to trouble the earl anymore.
If only this child were my grandson.
Such a thought suddenly popped up in Steward Yu's heart, and then he shook his head and rejected this idea.
This kid is so smart, he will definitely rise to prominence in the future, how can people be willing to support me, a bad old man?
It's just that once this thought appeared, it was like an appendage, and it always lingered in his mind.
At this time, Steward Yu looked at Wu Liang, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
There really is a feeling of intergenerational parenting.
Otherwise, the relationship between people in this world is really strange enough, some people hit it off at first sight, and some people never get along no matter how long they have been dating.
The white head is like new, and the cover is like the old, which is what it means.
I remember seeing a sentence a long time ago: the world is a circle, we should meet the person will always meet, never see the other is just a passerby after all, the eight-year-old us and the eighty-year-old us look at the problem from a surprisingly similar angle, we are moving forward, but what we don't know is that we are actually retreating at the same time.
......
Steward Yu looked at Wu Liang, knowing in his heart that with Wu Liang's ingenuity, he would have a future sooner or later, and if he could recognize him as his godgrandson, it would actually be the best thing.
What's more, Wu Liang's kid is so much in line with his eyes!
This thought lingered in the butler's heart for a long time, and finally made him make up his mind!
Wu Liang's child has no parents and relatives, and he has no relatives himself......
Steward Yu felt that this matter was still on the score.
Besides, looking at Wu Liang's appearance, I also like him a lot, if he can make it, it should be good!
However, after thinking about this matter, the housekeeper felt that he still couldn't say it himself.
It would be nice if someone of enough weight brought it up!
Steward Yu remembered someone......
If it's her......
Sure!
Do what you think!
Thinking of this, Steward Yu secretly clenched his fists and said to Wu Liang: "Ovary, you are like this, wait here for a while, and I'll go over and see if they're done." ”
"Uh-huh!" replied Wu Liang as he ate the cake.
Steward Yu nodded and left here.
......
Passing through the corridor with carved beams and paintings, and walking through the rockery with strange rocks, Butler Yu took a shortcut from the back garden to the backyard.
Butler Yu knocked on a room door.
"Who?" said Hua Longyu's voice in the room.
The Earl is here, too?
Steward Yu was stunned for a moment, and then understood.
Also, the matter of recruiting a son-in-law is to tell the housewife......
It's just that, it's not easy for me to talk about it!
Butler Yu pondered in his heart, but he didn't forget to reply: "It's me." ”
"Uncle Yu!" Hua Longyu replied, "Is the banquet ready?"
"Yes, I came here to call the Mistress. It would be better if the Earl was there. ”
"Then wait a minute......"
"Yes!"
There was the sound of Suosuo's dressing in the house, and the housekeeper was deaf and clear, so he naturally heard it clearly, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
After a long time, Hua Longyu opened the door and led the countess out of the house.
"Let's go!" Hua Longyu walked outside.
Steward Yu stood still and did not move.
"What's the matter?" said the Countess with concern.
The affairs of the palace are all managed by the countess, and things like this are also asked by her, and the count will never stick to it.
"Old slave...... There is something to please!" Steward Yu suddenly knelt on the ground.
The countess frowned and said, "Uncle Yu, what do you mean by this? You are already an old man in my Earl's Palace, and you have no major faults, not to mention us, even the children of Yueling and Yang'an treat you as an elder, you get up quickly! If you have something, just say that what the Earl's Court can do will definitely be done for you." ”
After listening to the countess's words, Steward Yu did not gain an inch, but stood up obediently and said: " The old slave has been working hard in the Earl's Mansion for forty years, and Mrs. also knows that the old slave I have no children and no daughters, and said that if the old slave retires, he will be raised in this Earl's Palace, but the old slave is already more than sixty years old, and the most desired thing in his life is to enjoy the joy of family, when the young master and the young lady have not grown up, the old slave will treat them as their own, and they can also talk about this consolation, but after all, the master and slave are different, that is, the young lady and the young master do not care, and the old slave I dare not let them serve the soup, so the old slave came up with the idea of adopting a righteous grandson. ”
"Oh oh! it's simple!" Hua Longyu interjected, "This Lin'an City is so big, Uncle Yu, it's not easy for you to find a righteous grandson." It's up to me. ”
"No, it's not ......," Steward Yu hurriedly said, "I don't dare to bother the earl for this little thing, I have found the person, but whether it can be done depends on the opinion of the earl." ”
Hua Longyu is not a stupid person, Steward Yu said it in such detail, thinking of what Steward Yu reported to him today, he also knows who that person is!!
"You mean...... Do you want to accept Wu Liang as your righteous grandson?"
Steward Yu bowed deeply and said sincerely: "I hope that Lord Earl will be fulfilled!"
