Taoist Live: Family members must believe in science

After hearing the butler's reply, the middle-aged man's eyes suddenly narrowed.

The butler lowered his head, not daring to look into the eyes of the middle-aged man, his tightly clenched hands were already filled with sweat.

The surrounding atmosphere fell into silence again, and his heart was lifted.

The housekeeper's eyes were fixed on the floor, for fear that the master had really listened to him and asked him to bring the young lady into the study.

"Housekeeper, how long have you been here?"

The middle-aged man squinted his eyes, with a faint smile on his face.

As if chatting, instead of asking about the housekeeper Zhou Yuexi, he asked how long the housekeeper had been working at Zhou's house.

When the butler heard the master's words, his heart seemed to be clenched by someone suddenly.

There was a smile on the face of the middle-aged man, but the housekeeper's face suddenly turned pale, and even his breathing gradually began to be a little difficult.

"About ten years, my lord."

The butler lowered his head firmly, and answered the middle-aged man's question with a voice as calm as possible.

He hangs on both sides, his tightly clenched hands have already begun to tremble/shake slightly.

There were big beads of sweat on his forehead, coming out.

"Really? So it's been so long."

"I remember that you were just a servant when you first came in, and now you are also a housekeeper."

A look of reminiscence appeared on the face of the middle-aged man, as if he missed those past times very much.

He patted the butler on the shoulder with one hand, and said in a nostalgic tone.

"It's been so long in a flash, and we're all old too."

The middle-aged man had a smile on his face and patted the butler on the shoulder lightly.

The gentle appearance, combined with the harmless smile, can really give people a feeling of spring breeze.

Moreover, in the words of the middle-aged man, they are also nostalgic for the past.

People who didn't know saw it, and thought that the housekeeper and the middle-aged man were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, and the two were chatting and reminiscing about the old days.

But only the housekeeper standing opposite the middle-aged man will know what kind of pressure he is under.

He has been in Zhou's house for more than ten years, and he has been able to grow from an ordinary servant to a housekeeper all the way, relying on his ability to observe words and emotions, and his keen sense of smell that can detect a hint of crisis in advance.

If there are grades for the hole distance, then the current butler is undoubtedly at the highest level.

Having been with the middle-aged man for so many years, he is very aware of the middle-aged man's temper.

Don't look at middle-aged people who always have a smiling face to everyone.

But if you offend him, he can stab / you twice with a smile on his face!
"The subordinates are only lucky enough to be appreciated by the master, so they can have this opportunity to serve the master in front of the master."

Even though his eyes were fixed on the floor, he never met the eyes of the middle-aged man opposite him.

But the housekeeper still felt as if a mountain was being pressed on his back, making him unable to breathe.

The butler clenched his fists tightly, his nails almost digging into his flesh.

He tried his best to make his voice sound normal, and tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart.

After listening to his words, the middle-aged man seemed very happy and smiled slightly.

Afterwards, he seemed to have discovered something very strange, and asked the housekeeper with great interest why he kept his head down.

"Although my subordinates have worked hard all these years, there is nothing outstanding about their work."

"The subordinates feel that they are ashamed of the master's appreciation, so they have no face to face the master."

After the butler heard what the master said, his heart skipped a beat.

What should come has finally come.

The housekeeper secretly sighed in his heart, the words of flattery were almost at his fingertips, and he opened his mouth immediately.

After listening to his words, the middle-aged man seemed to be very useful.

Hahaha laughed a few times, turned around and walked back behind the desk.

"sit down."

After sitting down on the boss chair behind the desk, the middle-aged man pointed to a chair in front of him and said to the butler.

The butler immediately showed a very panicked look, deliberately took a step back, and answered with a trembling voice.

"The subordinates don't have any achievements, so they dare not sit face to face with the master."

"It's good for the subordinates to stand here."

After hearing the butler's words, a trace of displeasure appeared on the face of the middle-aged man.

He frowned slightly, and tapped the table with his fingers.

"I said you can, you can, sit!"

Seeing that the middle-aged man had changed his expression, the butler immediately changed the expression on his own.

The housekeeper's face now had an expression of three parts panic, three parts hesitation, and four parts joy.

These expressions flashed across the butler's face, as if he deliberately concealed them, not wanting to be caught.

He put on a respectful look again.

After thanking the master, he carefully moved to the chair opposite the middle-aged man.

After both of them sat down, the middle-aged man took out a tea set from nowhere.

It looked like he wanted to make tea for the housekeeper himself.

Seeing this scene, the housekeeper immediately stood up, took the tea set from the master, and started to make tea.

The middle-aged man sitting on the boss chair didn't stop him either.

The middle-aged man tapped the table with his fingers and looked at the butler with half-closed eyes.

Not long after, a cup of hot tea was placed in front of the middle-aged man, and the housekeeper stood in front of him with his hands down.

"Sit down."

"Yes, sir."

"I heard that something happened at home recently."

The middle-aged man picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said lightly.

After hearing the master's words, the housekeeper's heart suddenly felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar.

He knew that the sharp sword that had been hanging above his head had finally fallen today.

"It's all trivial things, and I shouldn't bother the master."

The housekeeper secretly sighed in his heart, and replied the middle-aged man.

"Oh, is that so? But how did I hear that you haven't dealt with this trivial matter well!"

"It's the subordinate's dereliction of duty, please punish the master."

"What are you talking about? How could I punish you for such a trivial matter?"

The middle-aged man tapped the table with his fingers, and stared directly at the butler opposite him.

Sensing the sight of the master from the opposite side, the butler let go of his tightly clenched fist.

He felt that those two lines of sight, like two indestructible swords, directly pierced his heart.

The only thing left in his heart, the last thought of dying, was also turned into nothingness under the two swords.

At this time, the butler had lost all hope and did not intend to make any unnecessary struggles.

"Master is so sympathetic to us, let me wait, I am really ashamed."

"Subordinates are old and frail, and it is difficult to take on heavy responsibilities."

"I implore the master to allow my subordinates to retire early."

After speaking, the housekeeper who was sitting opposite the middle-aged man fell to his knees.

Seeing him like this, the middle-aged man immediately stood up from the boss's chair, and helped the butler who was already kneeling on the ground up.

After several excuses, the middle-aged man showed a look of regret on his face.
