Chapter 348: The Marquis summons me to discuss something



Chapter 348: The Marquis summons me to discuss something

Thinking of this, Peng Lu looked at Butler Lu, "Brother Lu, then...should I go to the Marquis to tell him today, or should I say goodbye to him tomorrow morning?

There has to be an explanation!"

Lu Jien thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't matter if it's just one night!

If you leave now, where can you go?

Could it be possible... to stay at an inn?

Let’s talk about it tomorrow morning!”

After hearing this, Peng Lu also nodded.

"Then I'll go out and buy some wine and food, and have a couple of drinks with Brother Lu tonight."

Lu Jie'en didn't look up, but just nodded silently.

Peng Lu stood up and was about to go out when he heard hurried footsteps outside.

Lu Jie'en and Peng Lu looked up at the door together.

Then I heard Zhongshun's voice coming from outside the door, "Is Butler Lu here?

Butler Lu!"

After hearing this, Lu Jien responded expressionlessly, "I'm here, what's up?"

The door opened, and Zhongshun pushed it open and walked in, "Butler Lu, the Marquis wants to see you!"

"My Lord, are you looking for me?

Do you know what it is?" Lu Jien asked.

Zhongshun shook his head, "I don't know!

The Marquis suddenly became anxious and asked me to go find Butler Lu.

What exactly happened... I don't know either."

Lu Jien stood up and nodded to Peng Lu, "I'll go there."

Having said that, he walked out with Zhongshun.

Peng Lu thought that the reason why the Marquis asked Butler Lu to come over was simply because the Marquis's family was having a hard time making ends meet and the Marquis was just asking Butler Lu for advice.

It is said that even a good cook cannot cook without rice!

The Marquis' Mansion is empty, what good ideas are there to find a housekeeper?

Could it be possible to let Steward Lu support the people in this mansion on behalf of the Marquis?

Or should Butler Lu go out of his way to ask the eldest lady to mediate?

Peng Lu thought again, he had already made up his mind to leave, the affairs of the Marquis' Mansion had nothing to do with him anymore!

Thinking of this, Peng Lu stepped out of the door, went out of the mansion through the side door, and went to the street.

Lu Jie'en followed Zhongshun to Zhongshun's little house and met Qinxing Hou Leng Xian.

The first time Lu Jie'en saw Leng Xian, he felt that... the Marquis seemed to be in much better spirits.

Lu Jie'en thought about it, could it be that...something good happened?

I haven’t heard that Lord Zheng, the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, has come to the Marquis’ Mansion again!

I haven't heard of any news about the thieves being caught or the property being recovered.

Then, sir... where does this bright light in your eyes come from?

Lu Jien hesitated for only a moment before stepping forward to greet him, "Greetings, Lord Marquis!"

"Forget it!" Because Lu Jie'en was an old man around the old marquis, Leng Xian was still able to give him some more face.

He pointed to the bench opposite and said, "Butler Lu, please sit down. I have something to discuss with you."

"Yes, Lord!" Lu Jie'en walked to the wooden stool beside the table and sat down, waiting to hear what Leng Xian had to say.

Leng Xian cleared his throat, sat up straight, and still put on the demeanor of a marquis, "Butler Lu, I'm sure you know best what the situation in the Marquis' Mansion is like!

This can’t go on...

Lu Jie'en raised his head and glanced at Leng Xian, thinking that this certainly couldn't go on.

But what else can you do if you don't do this?

Lu Jie'en lowered his eyelids again and just listened to Leng Xian talking.

Seeing that Lu Jie'en had no intention of responding, Leng Xian had no choice but to continue talking himself.

"You are an old man in the Marquis' Mansion!

So, I have some ideas... and I want to discuss them with you.

There are some things that require you to step forward and do them.”

After hearing this, Lu Jie'en thought to himself, what does the Marquis mean by this?

I am an elder in the Marquis' Mansion, that's right.

But, is the current situation something that I, as a housekeeper, can change?

Lu Jie'en still didn't speak.

Leng Xian felt a little unhappy.

In his opinion, as the steward of the Marquis' Mansion, Lu Jie'en asked for something, so you should at least say something!

This way, I can continue speaking!

But now, you are like Xu Shu entering Cao’s camp, without saying a word!

I am the master, so I can only keep talking here...

It seems that I, as the master, have been too lenient to the people in this mansion before!

After the current predicament is over, it will be necessary to strictly reorganize the Marquis' Mansion from top to bottom!

Although Leng Xian thought so, he still needed the servants in the mansion, and at a time when the mansion was empty and extremely poor, he wanted these people to continue working for the mansion. He could not care too much about some things.

Leng Xian calmed down his anger and said directly, "Butler Lu, the Marquis's Mansion is in a difficult situation right now, and it's a problem to maintain daily livelihood.

I wonder who the thieves who robbed the Marquis’ Mansion were?

He actually stole everything from my Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion, not a penny left!

There are only a few people including the Lord, the old lady, the lady, the young master and the young lady, so this is easy to say;

The key point is, there are dozens of servants in this mansion. I really can't bear to make them drink porridge and eat pickles every day!

We must find a way to let them go back to their old lives!"

It’s not that Lu Jie’en didn’t say anything, but Leng Xian’s words made Lu Jie’en speechless.

It turns out that the Marquis is so worried and troubled because of the dozens of servants in the mansion!

I want the servants to live their lives back to the way they used to!

Haha...!
