Seeing that the young man still didn't move, the man couldn't help but said, "If you don't leave, I will have someone drive you away!"
After the words fell, the housekeeper shouted loudly, "Come here!"
However, before others could approach, a voice sounded after him: "Wait a minute."
Hearing this voice, everyone couldn't help but cast their eyes on the person who made the voice.
The person who said this now was Shen Fanghui, who had been silent before.
When the butler saw Shen Fanghui speaking, his attitude changed again. He just smiled and said to Shen Fanghui in a flattering manner, "I wonder what you want me to ask you?"
Facing the other party's question, Shen Fanghui only whispered, "Steward, I want this child."
Hearing Shen Fanghui's words, the steward was surprised. After a moment, he said softly, "Miss Lu, this child is obviously not suitable. You see, he is very thin and his face is full of scars. He looks like this He doesn't seem to be a thorn, but he is also a troublemaker. Such a domestic slave is very difficult to train."
Although the steward's voice was very low, the child still heard the steward's words.
Therefore, the young man immediately jumped up and said, "Steward, I didn't take the initiative to cause trouble."
After hearing the young man's retort, the steward impatiently reprimanded him, "Don't interrupt when we are talking! No one teaches you the rules."
After hearing what the steward said, the young man finally stopped saying anything.
At this time, the steward only added one sentence to Shen Fanghui, "And this kind of domestic slaves are untrained at first glance. It would be bad if they collided with you because of this."
Shen Fanghui ignored the steward's words. To be honest, what she liked was the young man's stubbornness.
So at that moment, she just smiled at the steward and said, "Steward, it doesn't matter. You should just keep the child and give it to me."
After hearing Shen Fanghui's words, the steward had no choice but to say hello, and then the housekeeper reluctantly said to the young man, "Stand over there!"
After hearing this, the young man immediately said happily, "Thank you, Miss."
At the same time, the steward didn't care about it. He just motioned for the young man to hurry over.
However, Shen Fanghui said to the steward at this time, "This child should stand behind me. After all, he is the one I picked. I don't bother the steward to train him for me."
Shen Fanghui deliberately arranged this, naturally just because she found that most people in this house would not dare to oppose him as soon as they heard the name of the second young master. She did not need such a cowardly and unprincipled gatekeeper.
If she teaches people to be trained by the manager, the manager may not be able to train them well. On the contrary, because they interact with most people, they may only learn some things that are beneficial to themselves, but not beneficial to the host family. The old-fashioned way, which Shen Fanghui doesn't need. ap.
Therefore, instead of teaching a group of people with no background to others, it is better to train them yourself to be considerate.
Why couldn't the housekeeper see Shen Fanghui's thoughts?
I didn't expect that Shen Fanghui would say such words. It seemed that this eldest lady was not easy to get along with. Naturally, the steward's attitude towards Shen Fanghui was quite different at this time.
He didn't do much persuasion. After all, everyone has his or her own way of survival, and it was not easy for him to dictate. "Miss Lu, since you said so, I will do what you said."
Then the person in charge just pointed at the young man, and he only motioned the young man to go to Shen Fanghui.
The young man's purpose at this time seems to be just to stay in the Zhu family. Now that this purpose has been achieved, he will naturally cooperate with it. He just stood obediently behind Shen Fanghui, and Shen Fanghui was also very cooperative with the young man.
Then the farce ended, and the butler continued to select people. Soon, the butler selected twenty or thirty people out of a hundred or so, and most of the remaining ones were basically available for Shen Fanghui to choose from. The candidates who were eliminated and slightly inferior.
However, Shen Fanghui's courtyard does not need outstanding people, as long as she can have some
It is enough to have loyal and not stupid people by her side. After all, even if she really arranges for a strong man, even if that strong man can really beat Zhu Yuewu to death, she cannot afford this responsibility.
So instead of making Zhu Yuewu unhappy, she would rather have a maid who is smart and can call people for her when she meets Zhu Yuewu.
It was also because of this criterion that when Shen Fanghui subsequently selected candidates, she only chose a young man who looked relatively honest.
The maids she chose after that were all candidates who looked honest but were quite smart.
After choosing four people, she said goodbye to the housekeeper, and then she took all four people back home. After a brief introduction, Shen Fanghui began to give them names.
Because she had the deepest impression on the young man, and when she saw the young man, she would unconsciously think of the scene of the young man being beaten on the road when she came to the city that day.
Although she didn't see the boy's appearance clearly at the time, she thought that if the boy was still alive, he would probably be the same age as the boy in front of her, right? Her heart was filled with sympathy for the boy in front of her.
It was also because of this sympathy that she took the first step and asked the young man, "Young man, what is your name?"
Facing Shen Fanghui's question, the young man obviously didn't know the rules of changing his name. He only whispered, "My surname is Liu and my first name is Xiaoman. Miss, you can call me Xiaoman."
Hearing the other party's name, Shen Fanghui had no intention of changing it. After all, it was the name given by her parents. If there was no choice, who would be willing to throw away his last name, and who would be willing to forget the way he came here? Woolen cloth.
Thinking of this, Shen Fanghui took the initiative and said to Liu Xiaoman, "Your name is Xiaoman? Were you born when Xiaoman was a child?"
Facing Shen Fanghui's question, Liu Xiaoman nodded blankly.
This young lady seems to be different from what I imagined. She is not domineering, but rather knowledgeable and courteous, even if she is not close to her. He could also feel that the other person was fragrant and soft, which was completely different from people like him.
Shen Fanghui then smiled and said, "Then I'll call you Xiaoman from now on."
Liu Xiaoman nodded.
For the first time, he took the initiative to ask a woman's name, "What about you? What's your name?"
Facing Liu Xiaoman's question, Shen Fanghui just smiled and said, "My surname is Lu and my name is Fanghui."
Liu Xiaoman was also a little stunned.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Shen Fanghui couldn't help but ask Liu Xiaoman, "Xiaoman, what's wrong with you? Why don't you speak?"
Liu Xiaoman asked in a low voice, "Isn't your surname Zhu?"
Shen Fanghui didn't think much about it. She just smiled and said, "Of course my surname is not Zhu. My surname is Lu and my first name is Fanghui. I come from Shangjing."
Hearing Shen Fanghui's words, Liu Xiaoman could only feel relieved.
If her surname is not Zhu, she is not from the Zhu family. Maybe she is visiting the Zhu family.
The young man thought this way, so he asked, "Are you here to be a guest at Zhu's house?"
Shen Fanghui was not angry at Liu Xiaoman's question. On the contrary, she only felt that the boy's words were inexplicably appropriate.
For this reason, Shen Fanghui had no objection at all to Liu Xiaoman's questions.
She just smiled and said, "Yes, I'm here as a guest."
At this time, she really felt that she was not just a guest. After all, only guests will stay in the guest rooms.
Moreover, Zhu Zanxun didn't like her, and she was not the real Miss Lu.
When she came here before, everything she thought might be just a dream. It would be good if she could go back alive.
But Liu Xiaoman took these words seriously.
He really thought Shen Fanghui was just a guest. Therefore, he only asked worriedly, "Miss Lu, you are here as a guest, so aren't you about to leave here?"
When Shen Fanghui heard this, she just smiled softly, "Maybe not so fast."
Liu Xiaoman seemed a little worried, "Can you tell me how long you can stay?"
? "
Shen Fanghui only said, "It's impossible to say. He might leave tomorrow, he might stay for a year or two, or he might stay for a lifetime. It's not impossible."
Hearing Shen Fanghui's words, Liu Xiaoman was confused. He didn't know what kind of guest was so unclear about his position as a guest.
The conversation between Liu Xiaoman and Shen Fanghui only emboldened the other three people. The person in front of them did not seem to be fierce. On the contrary, she was very talkative.
Therefore, they only joined in the conversation at the moment, and the smart-looking girl among them only took the initiative to say, "So are you a relative of the Zhu family?"
Shen Fanghui smiled. If the couple can be considered relatives, then she is indeed a relative. Therefore, Shen Fanghui just nodded. She looked at the girl and asked, "What about you? What's your name?"
The little girl immediately replied, "My name is Yue'e."
Shen Fanghui praised, "What a good name."
Then she only looked at other people.
When the other two people saw that the other two people were asked their names, they immediately took the initiative to mention their own names. When the honest young man saw Shen Fanghui's eyes falling on him, he immediately said, "My name is Wang Pingan!"
"Every year is safe?" Shen Fanghui asked.
The honest young man scratched his head and smiled sheepishly, "I don't know either."
The other honest girl also said, "My name is Xu Jixiang."
"Your names are quite festive, so according to the usual practice, your names have to be changed, but I won't change them here." Shen Fanghui said in a low voice.
"Xiao Man, Yue'e, peace and good luck. I will call you by your names from now on."
"The reason why I am doing this is to tell you, don't forget the way you came. Even if one day I am gone, you can still find your own way back and go back again?" Shen Fanghui said with a slight smile.
At the same time, she silently added in her heart: Don't be like her, who couldn't even find the way she came, and couldn't go back to the past in the end.
