Chapter 244: The Butler’s “Performance”



Chapter 244: The Butler’s “Performance”

After Ye Wuwei left, Xiao He asked Ye Lingling:

"I don't want to get married because my previous experiences have made me afraid of men. What's the reason why Brother Ye doesn't want to get married?"

Ye Lingling thought for a moment and said, "Brother Ye used to beg for a living. Did he develop a mental illness during that time?"

"But I don't think Brother Ye looks like him.

If it was really a childhood trauma, his personality wouldn't be as good as Big Brother Ye's."

Ye Lingling thought about it and agreed.

Ye Wuwei is confident, calm, and full of energy. He is also a very warm and loving person. He doesn't look like he was bullied as a child.

"Could it be that Brother Ye liked a woman before but couldn't get her, so he doesn't want to get married?"

Xiao He thought for a moment:

“I don’t think so.

When we met Brother Ye, he was not as tall as us, and we had never heard that he had anyone he liked.

After arriving in Qamdo, if Big Brother Ye finds someone he likes, won't he be able to marry her?"

Ye Lingling also felt that what Xiaohe said made sense.

Suddenly, Ye Lingling remembered something.

"Xiao He, have you heard of Duan Xiu?"

Xiao He was shocked: "Are you saying that Brother Ye likes men?"

"I don't know either. But if he hadn't suffered from a heart disease in his childhood, why wouldn't he want to get married?"

Xiao He thought about it for a while, but still didn't want to believe that Ye Wuwei was gay: "Maybe it's true that he is a non-marriageist as Big Brother Ye said."

"What do you think about what Brother Ye said about the housekeeper?"

"If Big Brother Ye really won't marry, I'd be willing to manage his mansion for him."

Ye Lingling observed Xiao He for a moment and asked, "You don't still like Brother Ye, do you?"

"No.

Ever since Brother Ye told me to be independent, I let it go, but I am still very grateful to him.

The reason I was willing to manage his mansion was that I thought it would be a good way out for me."

Ye Lingling thought about it and realized that it was true.

As the saying goes, "The prime minister's doorman is a seventh-rank official." Ye Wuwei is His Majesty's confidant and an important official in the court. If Xiaohe becomes the housekeeper of the Ye Mansion, no one will dare to bully her even if she never gets married.

"If you want, just agree to it, Brother Ye."

"I want to agree, but I'm also worried that I can't do it."

“We asked the housekeeper for help and guidance.

Besides, I can help you at the beginning."

"Then let's go ask the butler for his opinion now."

……

After listening to what Ye Lingling and Xiaohe said, the housekeeper knew what was going on.

Since Ye Wuwei intends to let Xiaohe be his housekeeper, he will help Xiaohe.

"Don't worry, just promise Commander Ye that if you have any questions, you can ask me at any time. And if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can always come to me."

Xiao He and Ye Lingling thanked the housekeeper profusely.

"Eunuch, Brother Ye said he would never marry in his lifetime. Do you know the reason?"

The butler naturally knew but he couldn't say it.

The butler smiled meaningfully and said:

"Since Commander Ye said you will know later, then just let it go."

When Ye Lingling and Xiao He heard this, they understood that Ye Wuwei was not joking, but was serious. The housekeeper also knew the reason.

"I'll be in trouble from now on, eunuch."

After Ye Lingling and Xiao He left, the housekeeper decided to "perform" in front of Qi Wushuang.

The housekeeper chose a time when Ye Wuwei had just entered the bedroom to meet Qi Wushuang.

The housekeeper said in a fake tone:

"The commander is here too? That saves me from having to look for you again."

Ye Wuwei also lied with his eyes open: "Your Majesty came here because he had something to ask me."

The housekeeper continued to turn a blind eye:

"Xiao He and Ye Lingling came to me today and said that the commander wanted them to take over your household duties and asked for my opinion.

I said that since the commander had spoken, we should ask them to agree. They wanted to agree but were worried about their ability."

“I’m too busy on weekdays and don’t have time to look after my family, so I’d like to ask Xiao He to take care of the household for me.

Since Xiao He is willing to agree, please take the trouble to teach her."

Qi Wushuang answered:

"Wu Wei wants to open a mansion. You should bring some people to help Xiao He open it for him in the next few days."

Qi Wushuang spoke, and the housekeeper naturally responded.

Ye Wuwei said, "Please wait a moment, eunuch."

Ye Wuwei went to the room and took out a wooden box:

"This is the 'Snow Ginseng Jade Toad Pill' produced by the Shui family. I always trouble you and don't know how to thank you, so I asked the Shui family for these.

If the eunuch enjoys the food, please let Xiao Dengzi know, and I will ask the head of the Shui family to set aside enough for the eunuch every month."

Upon hearing that it was the "Snow Ginseng and Jade Toad Pills", the housekeeper was overjoyed.

"Snow Ginseng and Jade Toad Pills" is a premium tonic medicine that Shui family does not sell to the public. It has the effect of restoring body functions and prolonging life.

However, the three main ingredients of "Snow Ginseng and Jade Toad Pills" - snow ginseng, jade toad and cistanche deserticola - are extremely difficult to collect. Therefore, the annual output of "Snow Ginseng and Jade Toad Pills" is fixed, and it is impossible to get it unless you have a very good relationship with the head of the Shui family.

The butler now has money and power, but the "Snow Ginseng and Jade Toad Pill" is not something he can get just by wanting it.

The butler wanted it very much, but he didn't take it and instead looked at Qi Wushuang.

"This is Wuwei's kindness, just accept it. But you should pay more attention to Wuwei's affairs in the future."

The housekeeper then happily took it.

"Thank you, Commander. From now on, if you need anything, just let me know."

After the housekeeper left, Qi Wushuang said to Ye Wuwei:

"Little Dengzi is the butler's apprentice, brought up by the butler himself. He can't hide what happened between us."

"Of course I know. It's just that there's nothing wrong with pretending to do something."
