Chapter 384: A Relative Is a Thief
The housekeeper rarely interacts with the people in the family, except for sending things and silver regularly, that is, during the New Year. People in the family rarely see the housekeeper, and those relatives do not see the housekeeper even more.
Liu'er was an accident.
The housekeeper saw that Liu'er was shrewd and capable, honest and strict-mouthed, so that he could act in the future, and took the initiative to bring Liu'er here.
Suddenly hearing a relative come to the door, the housekeeper was still a little flattered.
"Who? Did you tell me if it was any of my relatives? The butler questioned the next man.
"That's not true, just say it's your relative, waiting at the gate of the mansion, do you see it or not?" The subordinate didn't dare to make an idea, and watched the housekeeper wait to give a letter.
The housekeeper thought about it for a while, it shouldn't be blackmail, and he didn't have the courage to come to the door of Nalan Mansion to blackmail in broad daylight.
"People, take me to meet me."
The housekeeper made up his mind and asked his subordinates to take him outside the house, but he wanted to see who the people who came to him were sacred, and they dared to blatantly name and ask to see him.
When the housekeeper came to the door, he saw a middle-aged man carrying a large bag and a small bag in front and back, looking disgraced, and when he saw the housekeeper coming over and pounced on him, he shouted, "Uncle, I can be regarded as finding you." ”
The person who came shouted like this, so that the housekeeper was instantly blindfolded, and he felt uncomfortable by being hugged tightly.
"Who the hell are you, who is your uncle?" The butler pushed the man away.
"My mother is the daughter of the sister of your mother's distant cousin's aunt, so of course you are my uncle." The man crossed his fingers and counted the relationship between them.
The housekeeper brainstormed for a long time, but still didn't sort out the relationship between them. Looking at the person in front of him, he looks like a country bun.
"What's your name? What are you looking for me all of a sudden? The housekeeper patted the clothes on his body, a little disgusted.
"My name is Shunzi, the Jianghuai disaster has affected the livelihood of the people in our village, I have no choice, so I came to my uncle, and please ask me to take me in for my mother's sake." Come, bow down in front of the butler.
The butler was startled.
No matter how the housekeeper looks at it, he feels that he has no relationship with him at all, and he looks like a countryman who is being abducted and deceived.
People come to the door from afar to take refuge, and if they don't take them in, they are afraid that they will have a bad reputation, and they are afraid that they will raise tigers in the future.
"I'm a steward here, what can I do to help you? Here are ten taels of silver, don't be too little, take it and go home." ”
The housekeeper didn't want to provoke a person for no reason, so he casually gave the only ten taels of silver on his body to Shunzi after weighing it for a long time.
"No, you don't." Junzi generously refused, "I already inquired clearly when I came, and I heard that the cash-for-work here is run by Nalan Mansion, so I came to answer the call, some errand." ”
Shunzi looked around with eyebrows, and the tents around him were still set up at the gate of Nalan Mansion. The butler was also aware of the problem, and it seemed a little inappropriate to refuse at this time.
Junko's words made the housekeeper immediately feel that this person was a bit of a brain, and he couldn't help but be wary in his heart.
"You're smart enough to inquire." The butler raised an eyebrow.
"No, I just heard about it when I was Uncle Hall." Junko smiled.
The butler carefully examined the straight in front of him again.
I feel that with a mind like him, it may come in handy when dealing with the Lin woman in the future and dealing with Nalan Jin.
After some consideration, the butler decided to keep Junko.
"Okay, you come all the way and call me uncle, if I don't take you in, it seems that I am not very righteous." The housekeeper sighed helplessly, "In this way, I will bring you to the young lady, and it is their business whether to agree or not." Whether you can stay or not depends on your creation. ”
The housekeeper was lucky.
Originally, when someone like Junko came to the housekeeper, he could arrange something for him to do in welfare without telling anyone.
However, Junko is a bit slippery and too clever in doing things. Worried that he will one day get into trouble, and if he is investigated, all the fault will be attributed to the butler alone.
So, the housekeeper was blatantly brought to Nalan Jin like this, even if something happened in the future, the housekeeper could push it cleanly.
After all, Nalan Jin personally lived the purpose.
Along the way, Junzi looked at the magnificent furnishings of Nalan Mansion, kept asking questions, and felt very curious about everything, and asked at the bottom of the matter.
The butler plugged his ears impatiently, feeling that there were really annoying flies buzzing in his ears incessantly.
"Okay, aren't you annoyed after asking all the way, stay in Nalan Mansion in the future, when you understand." The housekeeper stopped suddenly, "I'll see the young lady and the aunt in a while." ”
"Okay, it's all up to my uncle's arrangement." Junko nodded.
The housekeeper worriedly put Shunzi in front of Nalan Jin, "Miss, this is a distant relative, who has come to me due to the impact of the disaster, to see if you can have an errand with us?" ”
The housekeeper introduced Nalan Jin and gave Shunzi a look.
"Miss, hello uncle." Junko immediately saluted the two.
Nalan Jin was surprised by the housekeeper's behavior, especially when she saw Junko's eyes, Nalan Jin suddenly felt scared.
Dongfang Yi thought that Shunzi was very good, and a smile appeared on his face inadvertently.
"There doesn't seem to be a shortage of people in the house lately." Nalan Jin pretended to think for a moment and answered.
"It's okay not to work in our house, isn't Miss doing cash-for-work lately? Arrange a job for him at will, as long as he can make ends meet. The butler hurriedly explained.
"That's fine, as long as your relatives don't dislike it." Dongfang Yi agreed, and forcibly blocked Nalan Jing's words.
Originally, Nalan Jin didn't want to take him in, but Dongfang Yi had already spoken, and she couldn't dismiss his face, so she had to do it for the time being.
"Thank you uncle, don't thank you uncle soon." The housekeeper nodded happily, and hurriedly asked the Shunzi on the side to thank Dongfang Yi.
"Thank you, Uncle, thank you Miss for taking you in."
Shunzi thanked Nalan Jin and his wife, and was taken away by the housekeeper, and he arranged a job and a place to live. is not far from Liu'er, also to spy on him.
"Liu'er, I always feel that there is something wrong with this straight, you keep an eye on him for me, let him make a mess." The housekeeper quietly instructed Liu'er.
"Don't worry, uncle."
Liu'er was secretly monitoring Junzi's every move, and sure enough, it was not what the housekeeper expected, and Nalan Jin's judgment.
Within three days of work, he was injured and raised in the house.
It turned out that Junzi had already inquired about the financial resources of Nalan Mansion and deliberately injured himself while working. took advantage of the time to recuperate in welfare, revealing his original nature.
Junzi quietly slipped into Nalan Jin's house, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find valuable things to steal.
But his sneaking skills are on par with Lin Dacheng, and there are so many people in the house, but none of them have seen him sneak into Nalan Jin's house.
It was still Lin who cared about Lin Dacheng's study, and took the initiative to interrogate Nalan Jin, heard movement in the house, and was about to push the door to go in, when he saw a stranger rummaging around in the house.
The frightened Lin hurriedly hid aside, and only after looking at it for a long time did he realize that it was a new relative of the housekeeper.
Lin panicked and fled quickly. Along the way, she panicked, but it was the maid Cui'er who saw it and screamed, and she reacted.
"Mistress, is there something wrong with being in such a hurry?" Cui'er said.
"Cui'er, you came just in time, Jin'er, I have something to look for her." Lin Shi took Cui'er's hand, out of breath.
"Miss just came back, and she's in the antechamber now."
Before Cui'er's words were finished, Lin hurriedly rushed forward to listen. He described the scene where he saw Junko stealing things, and gave Nalan Jin a 1510 description.
"Is there such a thing?" Although Nalan Jin was surprised, she was not panicked at all, it was completely expected.
"Can I still talk nonsense about this kind of thing?" Lin seemed to be vowing, "Just look at him like that, you know that he is a habitual offender, no wonder he wants to find something to do as soon as he comes, it turns out that he has a thief's heart." ”
Lin's words made Nalan Jin even more sure that his feelings were not wrong. No matter how you look at it, this straight is not a good man and a woman.
"Godmother, don't make a noise about this matter first, I'm afraid that it will be bad for Godmother to be known by Junzi." Nalan Jin slowly calmed Lin's emotions.
Lin Shi looked back and thought about it for a while, and was also worried that his ventilation message would be retaliated against by others, "Okay, I can keep it secret, but you must take precautions, otherwise it will be too late to regret it when the time comes." ”
Lin covered his mouth in fear, and then reminded Nalan Jin.
She nodded, looking at Lin's frightened look, she didn't want Dongfang Yi to see it, so she asked Cui'er to send Lin back to the room first.
Nalan Jin thought about it for a while, after all, there was no evidence, and he had just arrived in the mansion, so he had to save face, otherwise he would think it was targeted.
"Junko, what are you doing here?" Nalan Jin appeared silently behind Junzi.
Junzi had just closed the door and came out of Nalan Jin's house, when she heard Nalan Jin's voice behind her and was startled, "Miss! I'm fine, I was supposed to come to thank Miss, but I saw that there was no one. ”
Junko couldn't help but explain his theft.
Nalan Jin glanced at it, "You're welcome, don't come in my house casually in the future." Junko is a good name, but don't do the act of stealing grandchildren, you know? ”
Nalan Jin knocked on the side to remind Shunzi, he smiled and quickly slipped away, and afterwards inquired that it was the Lin family who told the truth, and held a grudge.
Liu'er told the housekeeper about this, he almost vomited blood, in order not to affect himself, worried that Nalan Jin would blame and dismiss Shunzi, he hurriedly ran to Nalan Jin's house to apologize.
"Miss, you've heard about the daytime, Junko doesn't know the road, there may be something wrong, Miss, don't blame him. If there is anything wrong or wrong, I apologize for him. The butler said insincerely.
