Old Madam Xie was still afraid of her husband. She quickly said,"This daughter is being bullied by the Lin family. We can't just ignore her.”
Great-Grandfather Xie sat down and snorted coldly." How are you going to control it? What do you have to control it with? Don't you think it's not enough to slap your face?"”
"What are you talking about?" Old Madam Xie was puzzled.”
"I think you're really old and muddle-headed. Why do you think the Lin family's Fifth Young Lady is so confident? She's relying on her daughter's words to our Xie residence.”
Hearing Old Master Xie's words, Old Madam Xie remembered and quickly said,""Could it be about the former butler of the Lin Manor?”
"What do you think? Don't you know how big of a crime it is to collude with an outsider to plot against the Young Master of the main family? Are you going to remind him that the former butler of Old Master Lin's residence is from our Xie residence?”
When Old Madam Xie heard this, she sat down and stopped talking.
Old Master Xie looked at Zhang Erjia and said,""I've already selected more than ten people who can be used. They've already applied for the job.”
When Zhang Erjia heard this, his face lit up."Yes, yes. Don't worry, Old Master. I will definitely remind Furen to be more careful in the future.”
Old Master Xie nodded and waved his hand.""You can go!"
“……”
"You brat, why didn't you tell me that you wanted to come and watch the show?”Jiang Ziqiu caught up and realized that this was the road to Old Master Lin's residence.
"I knew you would follow. It doesn't matter if I say it or not.”
The two of them walked together and jumped onto the wall opposite Old Master Lin's residence to watch the show.
At this moment, Old Master Lin's residence was as crowded as a market. There were all kinds of people gathered at the door waiting to apply.
Lin Ruomu stood in front of the door and briefly explained her requirements before starting to register.
Lin Qinghan handed Lin Ruomu some rules and some questions, then hid behind to peek.
Following that, those people seemed to have been injected with chicken blood and used all their skills.
Old Master Lin kept shaking his head.
He knew that the final fifteen would enter the inner court and compete.
At this moment, the sun had already set. Zhang Erjia whispered a few words into Madam Xie's ear.
Of the fifteen people, fourteen of them came from the Xie Residence. Only then did Madam Xie feel relieved.
Lin Qinghan looked at the Xie family's expression from behind, then looked at the people who had entered the inner circle. She really couldn't tell who was from the Xie family and who wasn't.
Just as she was at her wit's end, she suddenly noticed a familiar figure.
"Zhui Feng, why is it him?" Lin Qinghan muttered.
In her previous life, she had seen Zhui Feng many times. He was one of the four most trusted aides of the Crown Prince.
This Zhui Feng always acted in secret and never showed his face, so few people knew his identity.
Damn it, I shouldn't have listened to Chu Yue. I dug a hole for myself.
At this moment, Old Master Lin suggested,"If First Madam and Second Madam quarrel, how will you deal with it?"”
More than a dozen people gave their own answers.
Most of the opinions were the same, they were all fair and impartial.
When it was Zhui Feng's turn, Zhui Feng thought for a while and replied,"Old Master, this Eldest Furen and Second Furen are both Furen, but the difference is in the two words, big and small.”
"Tell me, how do you explain the word 'difference'?”
"Since there is a difference, we should treat them differently. First Madam is naturally the superior, and Second Madam is naturally the inferior. The etiquette and respect for the elders are naturally the superior. Even if First Madam is wrong, we must leave First Madam some face and persuade her behind her back.”
Old Master Lin smiled." But if you do that, you will offend the Second Mistress."”
Zhui Feng replied again,"If the advice is appropriate, Second Furen will naturally not be angry. After all, in order not to be laughed at, one naturally understands right and wrong."”
"Then what if you encounter unreasonable people?”
Zhui Feng bowed and said,"If you really encounter unreasonable people, with your shrewdness and decisiveness, you will definitely not tolerate it.".”
Old Master Lin nodded in satisfaction.”
Madam Xie was a little displeased. This person's answer was indeed much better than her people, but he was not one of her own.
Thinking of this, she quickly said," Master, it's not enough to just know how to adjust. You have to be proficient in everything in this house.”
Old Master Lin nodded and looked at the servant beside him.""Go get the abacus and send the questions to them. Let them calculate it clearly.”
Soon, the servants took out their abacus and placed a question on each table.
More than a dozen people sat down at the same time. Then, they began to move the abacus beads one by one.
Lin Qingxue walked over and looked behind the screen. She said disdainfully,"You're not an accountant. Why do you need to test the accounts?”
Lin Qinghan smiled,"Sister needs to have the ability to deal with things as a housekeeper. She also needs to prevent the accountant from cheating, so she needs to test her accounting skills."”
Lin Qingxue curled her lips and snorted,"You know so much."
When Old Master Lin heard the words of his two daughters, he was instantly filled with emotion.
This person who had not grown up by his side since he was young was smooth and slick in all aspects, while this person who had grown up by his side was spoiled and did not know how to do things.
Zhui Feng was the first to stand up and handed the accounts to Old Master Lin.
Old Master Lin matched the answers in his hands and there was no mistake.
"You're the one," Old Master Lin said with a smile.
Madam Xie heard this and quickly stopped him.”
Old Master Lin smiled." The survival of the fittest is very obvious. There's no need to compete anymore. I want to test my two daughters on the remaining questions."”
As soon as he said this, Lin Qingxue quickly walked out and held Old Master Lin's arm.
"Father, what do you want to test?”
Lin Qingxue's appearance naturally attracted the attention of those men. Such a beauty was really good looking and made people's hearts itch.
It was just that they were all from the Xie residence, so they naturally knew what to do. However, they did not dare to look too much.
Madam Xie originally wanted to catch Zhui Feng's eyes staring at Lin Qingxue and send him away.
However, when she looked at Zhui Feng, she realized that he didn't even look at her precious daughter from the beginning to the end.
If this was an ordinary man, how could his eyes not be straight when he saw his daughter? How could this man be like this?
Compared to Lin Qingxue, Lin Qinghan was much more polite. He walked out and bowed slightly,"Father, your daughter will take the exam."
Old Master Lin was satisfied and waved his hand to signal for the irrelevant people to leave.
Although Madam Xie was unwilling, the result was real. She could only send those fourteen people away.
Old Master Lin said," As a butler, you should know how to manage a household. However, this Madam and Miss should know how to manage things. The last test of the ways of the world will be completed by you sisters."”
At this moment, the servant outside the door came to report,""Old Master, this Prince Chu of the Marshal's Residence and the young Junye of the Princess's Residence have come to visit.”
When Old Master Lin heard these two names, he frowned slightly.
Before he could say anything, he heard Jiang Ziqiu's voice.""Master Lin wants to test the two young ladies on the ways of the world. It just so happens that we can listen and learn.”
When Old Master Lin saw Jiang Ziqiu, he thought of the poisonous snake that almost killed Lin Qinghan and was very unhappy.
However, after all, he had been in the officialdom for so many years, and he did not show it on his face at all.
