Chapter 500 History
Zhang Shu said honestly: "This is winter melon tea, remove the fire."
After finishing speaking, as if he forgot, he added: "Madam made it herself."
Luo Xiaoqi's eyes flashed a look of surprise: "Madam is so amazing."
"Madam is naturally powerful. This time ink making is also Madam's ability. Madam can read, so you can gain something from reading any book. I don't know what questions Steward Luo needs to ask slaves about ink making?"
"Madam asked the servant to tell Butler Luo the details one by one."
Zhang Shu is like a person who has no intention at all. Basically, if the other party asks, he will tell everything by himself.
As soon as Luo Xiaoqi heard it, his eyes lit up, and he was surprised: "Madam is too good, I only heard that Madam can cook good meals before."
"I didn't expect to be able to make ink."
"Madam said that thanks to the master, the book was bought back. Butler Luo, if it is convenient, there will be good books in the future, can I buy them back?" Zhang Shu asked sincerely.
Luo Qisheng said: "Of course, the master has also ordered this matter. Once it arrives, it will be delivered to the house."
"The old slave is not polite, and asked you the details of the ink making."
"Butler Luo is being polite." Zhang Shuzheng said in trepidation.
Luo Qisheng looked at Luo Xiaoqi, and ordered: "Xiaoqi, grind it down."
"But uncle, I have a photographic memory..."
Luo Qisheng's face changed in vain, and his voice was cold: "This kind of matter related to the Lord's family must be recorded, otherwise, if something goes wrong, can you afford it?"
"Yes, uncle, I was wrong." Luo Xiaoqi didn't think of his uncle who seemed to be in a good mood just now, and suddenly lost his temper.
Zhang Shu was also taken aback by Luo Qisheng's majestic aura. He was used to being honest and didn't react for a while, otherwise he would have to wait to make a fool of himself.
At the moment.
Ye Muyu left the main room and returned to the east wing.
Mr. Hu helped take the ledger in.
whispered: "Madam, I have already called Zhang Shu to tell that housekeeper Luo the details of ink making, and ask about his background by the way."
"Thanks for your hard work."
"It's right to do things for Madam, how can you say it's hard work." Hu said softly, she didn't talk too much about other things, and continued: "Madam, the servants will go to the kitchen to prepare dinner first, and eat early today. There is also a distance from the village to the county.”
"Let's go." Ye Muyu knew that the Hu family was measured, so he didn't need to give more instructions.
She sat silently in front of the vanity mirror, looking at the stack of ledgers beside her, feeling very troubled.
After thinking about it, she planned to find something for herself to do. The curtains for the carriage that she made yesterday to protect the carriage from the rain hadn't been finished yet, so she continued to take it out.
About half an hour passed.
Zhang Shu knocked on the door outside and walked in after getting her permission.
"Madam, this old slave has already asked me clearly."
"Steward Luo originally came from the home of the former magistrate in Suzhou. Two years ago, the prefect's family ransacked the house because of crimes. Steward Luo and his servants were sold again."
"However, Housekeeper Luo is quite capable. After the whole family was sold, they were bought back by wealthy local households."
"But then the young master of the rich family wanted to take his daughter forcibly. Steward Luo tried a trick, and was dispatched by the master and his family to a remote county town to run a shop."
"After that, I don't know what method the master used to buy his whole family from the rich man, and he has been using it for the master ever since."
