230 The Old Man's Test (002)

The old housekeeper has been by the old man's side since he was a hairy boy, and the two have been friends for more than 50 years. A lot of words, the old man may not say to Ye Chengshu, but he will definitely say it to the old housekeeper. In this world, the person who knows the old man best should be the housekeeper.

He thought for a moment and said pertinently: "The young lady behaved perfectly, and I don't see any dissatisfaction." But that white secretary, I don't think she's as smart as you describe, old man. ”

"Oh? How do you say that? ”

"Take the matter of being late, for example. Yes, the orderly at the gate was instructed by me, so he deliberately delayed the time and made the young lady late. But isn't this how the old man wants to test them? The young lady behaved very well, being late is being late, and there is no excuse. But this white secretary...... It is inevitable that there will be more excuses, not as atmospheric as the young lady. ”

"No, old black, you're wrong." The old man tucked the teacup, pressed down the tea leaves in the cup, took a shallow sip, and then handed the teacup out. If there are people who know how to do it, they will understand that the old man's hand in pressing tea leaves is a Qiongyu flower, which is a technique that only people who have been immersed in the tea ceremony for many years can do.

The old butler took the teacup with both hands and asked, "I don't understand, please make it clear to the old man." ”

"If it were someone else, Secretary Bai would definitely understand this truth, if you are late, you will be late, and there is no excuse. But don't forget, what I told you before, Bai Jingjing is loyal to Gu Lingse. She is not excusing herself, but excusing her Director Gu. Secretary Bai, she was afraid that I would blame Gu Lingse, so she made an explanation. ”

The old butler frowned, "But even so, this white secretary is inevitably a little abrupt." She should know that she is the person next to the young lady, so her every move is not only on behalf of herself, but also on behalf of the young lady. If she does something rude, people will not talk about her, but only how the young lady is. ”

"You're right." The old man nodded, "But it's still understandable." After all, she was anxious for Lingse. Lao Hei, a loyal man, that's the rarest. It's a bit of a problem like this, and it doesn't hurt. A little tuning, it will be good. What's more, Secretary Bai is also a smart and clever person. I'm not too worried about that. ”

"Yes, that's what the old man said."

Ye Zhenqiu squinted his eyes, pointed his finger, pointed to a small square on the wall and said, "That girl Lingse is also a person who loves to read." ”

The black butler looked in the direction of the old man's finger and chuckled appreciatively, "Yes." It can be seen from the young lady's cherishing of books that she is also a person who loves to read. ”

Look at the young lady's cautious appearance, as if she was holding not a book in her hand, but a priceless antique.

The old man raised his eyebrows, and said without being salty: "She has a bit of vision." ”

The first book I picked up was the most expensive one in the entire study.

"Old man, it seems that the young lady's interests are quite similar to yours. This is a handwritten copy of Qi Baishi's original handwriting, but it took you a lot of effort to buy it back. ”

"Among young people, there are really not many people who have such preferences." The old man didn't make an evaluation, but just said this lukewarmly.

But the black butler, who was very familiar with and knew the old man, could easily see from the corners of his raised mouth that he was satisfied with the young lady.

It seems that he doesn't have to sweat for the young master and the young lady anymore. The young lady's performance was very unexpected to him. From getting off the car to the present, the young lady's performance is perfect. Even he couldn't find a single flaw.

"Eh, old black."

"Old man?"

"I remember that the last time the daughter of the Liu family came to the house as a guest, you picked a lot of faults. What's the matter, also find fault with Gu Lingse? ”

The black butler chuckled, "Old man, it's not me who speaks for the young master." The young lady's performance today is really flawless. I don't know if you're always satisfied, but I'm very satisfied anyway. ”

"Don't say that too soon. Where is this, you dare to describe it as invulnerable? The old man seemed to hook his lips contemptuously, "At least, you have to wait until the third level is passed, and you can say this again." ”

The black butler smiled, did not speak, and retreated behind the old man, looking at the wall with him.

After Lingse and the black butler left, Bai Jingjing pondered, isn't it strange that there is no servant in the huge Ye family's mansion except for the old housekeeper just now?

Bai Jingjing is also a smart person, although she is a beat slower than Lingse's reaction, she still quickly understands. Keeping the other servants in the house apart, the old man just wanted to see how she behaved when she was alone.

Put on airs? Bai Jingjing smiled mockingly. Is it true or not, the old man has a pair of fiery eyes, will he not be able to see it?

"Jingjing, you just have to be normal."

Lingse's words floated to Bai Jingjing's ears again. She felt a pang in her heart, the deep meaning of the director's words, it turned out to be here!

She doesn't need to be pretentious, and she doesn't need to be pretentious. As the director said, just be herself. Deliberate camouflage will outweigh the losses. Squinting her eyes, Bai Jingjing stopped thinking and thinking about something, in short, she thought about everything. Do whatever she likes, as if she were herself. Of course, this most basic courtesy, Bai Jingjing still understands.

So she just paced in the living room on the first floor to admire, admiring the profound heritage and exquisite design of the Ye family's mansion. Anything, she doesn't touch, she doesn't touch, she just appreciates. It is really worthy of standing for less than a hundred years, and it is still the number one family in Jiangnan Province, and the bricks and tiles of the Ye family can reveal the atmosphere and heritage.

Soon, Bai Jingjing finished watching the living room on the first floor. After thinking about it, she calmly sat down on the sofa, bored. Instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to deal with some work matters while you haven't seen the old man yet. She was in a meeting when she received a call from the housekeeper, asking her to come to the Ye family's mansion, and she hadn't finished a lot of work yet.

Thinking of this, Bai Jingjing took out her iPad and mobile phone from her bag. I read the email from the other company on my iPad, and when I finished reading it, I started making phone calls.

"Old man, it seems that this white secretary has also entered the state. No more as at the beginning. The black butler showed a little satisfied gaze, "This person is the white secretary you described, old man." ”

Ye Zhenqiu raised his eyebrows confidently, "Lao Hei, after so many years, when did I miss what I said?" I still have the ability to recognize people, right? ”

"In, in." The black butler responded with a smile, "It seems that Secretary Bai is quite dedicated to his work." In such a short period of time, she has already answered three or five phone calls. ”

Turning his head sideways and looking at his old friend, Ye Zhenqiu asked, "Bu Meiya is Xiaomo's child, right?" ”

"Yes before, but now Young Master Quan has given Bu Meiya to the young lady."

"Oh, I remember." Ye Zhenqiu nodded his head, "It's because someone on Xiao Zhang's side was restless and made a move on Xiao Mo, forcing Xiao Mo to send Bu Meiya out, right?" ”

"Yes, Zhang Deliang trusts Young Master Quan very much. But Fang Liwen, who was beside him, had always been unaccustomed to Young Master Quan, and always tried to slander Young Master Quan in front of Zhang Deliang. ”

"Fang Liwen?" Ye Zhenqiu snorted coldly, very disdainful, "He is a clown who jumps off the beam, and he still wants to fix Xiaomo, it's just wishful thinking." ”

"The clown jumping off the beam is not enough to worry about, but the villain has to be guarded against." The black butler said indifferently: "I heard that Fang Liwen has been making a lot of moves recently. It seems to be for the young lady. ”

"It's not like, it's certain." Ye Zhenqiu was even more disdainful, almost to the point of sneering, "Fang Liwen also knew that Zhang Deliang wouldn't be able to jump for a few days, and he was afraid of it." Only Xiao Zhang, an idiot, would be kept in the dark by his secretary for so many years. Fang Liwen did those things, he knew best in his heart. Once Zhang Deliang has an accident, he will be the first to be buried. He doesn't plan for himself, that's weird. But he couldn't shake the bearing, so he could only turn the spearhead to Gu Lingse. This is not surprising. ”

The black butler laughed hehehe, and asked a little jokingly: "The old man is going to personally help a group of granddaughters-in-law?" ”

"You don't come." Ye Zhenqiu's eyes widened, and his eyebrows raised, "I haven't fully accepted Gu Lingse as my granddaughter-in-law." You don't put a trap on me. Besides, let the young people solve the affairs of the young people themselves. What do I do, I'm not afraid that people will laugh at me for relying on the old and selling the old, and I don't respect the old? ”

"If the young master can't even solve this little thing, then he is not worthy of inheriting the Ye family." The black butler said calmly: "Even the master was not qualified to inherit the Ye family back then, the young master wants to inherit the Ye family, where is it so easy." ”

The person who dares to say so lightly that Ye Nanchuan is not qualified to inherit the Ye family is estimated to be the old man, and there is only this black housekeeper. To put it a little unruly, in the Ye family, the status of the black butler is actually higher than that of the person surnamed Ye. In the old man's mind, the weight of the black butler is definitely heavy!

Why did Ye Chengshu reject Liu Haitang in one bite, and the old man didn't even ask, or even say a word of reproach? Here's why. Because when Liu Haitang came to the Ye family's mansion as a guest, the black housekeeper was very dissatisfied with her, and decided that she was not worthy of Ye Chengshu, let alone the title of the young lady of the Ye family. It was with the words of the black butler that the old man gave up the idea of letting Liu Haitang marry into the Ye family.

You must know that Liu Haitang is the best candidate for the granddaughter-in-law in the old man's mind. But because of the black butler's fluttering words, the old man dispelled this idea. From this point, it is not difficult to see that the weight of the black butler is extremely heavy.
