Chapter 501 Little Money Lover
"He has been traveling around recently and just returned two days ago."
"And there's also his servant, named Luo Xiaoqi, who is the nephew of Mr. Luo. Because of his photographic memory, he was left in the account room by the master."
"When I was explaining the details of ink-making, Luo Xiaoqi could indeed accurately remember everything, not missing a single word." Zhang Shu exclaimed with some pressure, feeling that his own abilities were too low.
Upon hearing this, Ye Muyu was not surprised as it was almost as she had expected.
This could explain why Luo Qisheng's manner of doing things was nothing like an ordinary steward's.
It's worth noting that even in the Wang family, or even in the magistrate's family, there wouldn't be such a capable steward.
The only comparable family in the county might be the Xie family.
The Xie family was a well-established aristocratic family with a lineage of at least three generations, and they were quite influential, not something an ordinary small landlord could compare to.
But what caught Ye Muyu's attention more was the intelligence and style of Luo Qisheng.
She sent Zhang Shu over to inquire about his background, and whether it was voluntarily disclosed by the other party or extracted by Zhang Shu, there was a difference between the two.
Obviously, Luo Qisheng understood Zhang Shu's intentions from the beginning and very judiciously informed him of all the information she wanted to know, just to convey the message to her through Zhang Shu.
It's a pity for such an intelligent person to be a steward.
Although Ye Muyu sighed, she wouldn't forget the distinction between high and low. As long as Luo Qisheng was willing to stay at the Chu family, she and Chu Heng would naturally not mistreat him. If he wasn't willing, there was no room for him.
"Does Mr. Luo's daughter have any news?" Ye Muyu asked.
Zhang Shu nodded, "Mr. Luo actively mentioned to me that his daughter is already married, and she married one of the stewards of the master's merchant caravan."
"Alright, there's no need to probe further. I assume dinner is ready by now. Go and call Ziluo and Xiao Jin back for dinner."
"Yes, I'll go now." Zhang Shu turned and left to find Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo who were watching the excitement by the pond in the village.
When Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo returned later, each of them was carrying a fish.
Zhang Shu was informed by the village chief that they would send over the fish and lotus roots they had allocated later.
"Mother." Chu Jin and Chu Ziluo finished tidying up and entered the main hall, noticing Luo Qisheng and Luo Xiaoqi.
Seeing a stranger in the house, Chu Jin was not shy and curiously asked, "Mother, who is this uncle? Who is this brother?"
"Lou Qisheng, the steward, has seen Miss and Master."
"I'm Luo Xiaoqi, I've seen Miss and Master."
After confirming the identity of the visitor, the two of them quickly greeted.
Chu Jin was surprised, "Are they also our people?"
Chu Ziluo also couldn't help but look curiously at the two of them. Seeing that they were wearing better clothes than herself, she was a little confused. If they were servants of their family, why would they dress so well?
Chu Jin directly asked, "Hello, but are you wearing silk? It looks very nice."
Luo Qisheng became even more respectful, "In response to Master, I'm very grateful for the master's attention and for entrusting outside matters to me. Wearing this outfit is also for the sake of convenience in handling affairs."
"If Master likes silk, I will have some sent over. However, the master instructed that since Master is still young, he should not become obsessed with it. I took the liberty of preparing only two sets of changing clothes for Master."
"Huh? You're sending it to me? Don't I need to pay?" Chu Jin's eyes widened with excitement, looking silly with joy.
