Chapter 317: Bad Luck
Steward Zhao only thought that Qiao Jinyu was surprised that there were suddenly many more faces in the mansion, and he didn't think deeply about other aspects.
Smiling, Steward Zhao said: "She, she once saved her life by the general, and she wanted to enter the mansion to be a maid who boiled water and swept the floor, in order to repay the general's life-saving grace." ”
"I saw that she had a poor background, and there was a shortage of people in the house, so I took her in and let her stay in the house to be a rough maid."
“……”
Qiao Jinyu really didn't know what to say.
She didn't expect this Liu Yan to be so capable, she said so much yesterday, and she kept kneeling at the door, and was finally bumped into by Steward Zhao.
If you bump into it, you can bump into it, and it successfully aroused Steward Zhao's compassion, and led the person directly into the house.
She can't say that she suspects that Liu Yan came to the door because she had ulterior motives for her general, and asked Steward Zhao to drive people away, right?
There is no evidence, and if no one is gone, her reputation for jealousy has spread in Xinyang City.
This kind of thing that can't hurt the enemy in the slightest, and also hurts herself a thousand, she will never do.
As her mind turned, Qiao Jinyu looked surprised.
"Is there a shortage of people in the house lately? Or is there a guest coming soon? Why haven't I received a message? ”
There are distinguished guests visiting, and there are too few people in the house to be busy, so it is normal to add people.
"No, there are no guests coming." Steward Zhao said.
A few days ago, Xianglan received a letter from home, saying that her grandfather was seriously ill and asked her to rush back to see her grandfather on his last journey. She and her wife took leave and went back to Shengjing. ”
"And Koizumi, when he went down the stairs the night before, he didn't pay attention to the road under his feet, and accidentally slipped and broke his foot."
"This one is on leave and the other is recuperating, there are two fewer people to work in the house, and they can't be busy, so Mrs. asked me to add a few more people."
Speaking of this, Steward Zhao couldn't help but sigh, whether Zhao Mansion has been lowered recently, this bad thing is one after another.
Needless to say, Qiao Jinyu was in Gu, Zhao Kuo went to suppress a bandit and was also injured.
Now the people in the house are either in trouble at home, or they have an accident by themselves.
He felt that it was better for him to go to Jing'an Temple to incense and go to Zhao's Mansion for bad luck.
Qiao Jinyu: "......"
Do you want to be so coincidental?
But then again, there have not been many descendants in the Zhao Mansion.
When she first entered the mansion, there were only two people, Xiaosi and Xiaoquan.
Steward Zhao is the butler of Zhao Mansion on the surface, but in fact, sometimes he is half a subordinate.
She once asked Steward Zhao why there were so few people in the house, and Steward Zhao told her that Zhao Kuo likes to be quiet and doesn't like the large number of people in the house.
Zhao Kuo was in the military camp most of the time, and they didn't have any friends in Xinyang, and they didn't need to entertain guests on weekdays, so the Yan family didn't add anyone.
Before she entered the house, there was originally a cook in the house, and Yan always thought that the cook's food tasted bad, so the cook was deeply shocked, so he rolled up and left.
Later, when they came back from Shengjing, including Luzhu and Hongmei, Zhao Kuo's second aunt picked four maids and four maids to come back with them.
Even so, with the addition of Koizumi and Xiaosi, there are only ten people in total.
In the past, Xiaosi and Xiaoquan were busy because there were few people in the house.
Now that there are more people and more things to do, it is normal that there are suddenly two fewer people doing work, and they are too busy.
With a slight glint in her eyes, Qiao Jinyu nodded.
"I see. Since there is a shortage of people in the house, there should indeed be a few more. I couldn't help much, so I went back first. ”
"Okay, princess, go slowly."
