I'm the Villain's Mother in Time Time

Chapter 313 The Key
"Don't look stupid, sit down and drink a bowl at a time."

Hui'er smiled, a little embarrassed, but she still stepped forward to take a bowl and drank it.

"It's delicious!" Hui'er said happily.

Although their usual food is not too bad, and there are some meat and vegetables, but they have never had such a good soup.

In the past, the kitchen would send them a vegetable soup at most, with minced meat or eggs floating in it at most. It was unlikely that it would be their turn to taste a soup as rich as a brood of chickens like today.

The two sat down and drank two bowls in a row. Lin Chuqian was full, and suddenly thought about her silly girl who was always skinny, and asked quickly, "Where did the little pig go?"

"Miss San, she saw too many people just now, so she hid out of fear." Hui'er replied while drinking soup.

"Hiding?"

Lin Chuqian was helpless, she often felt that her silly girl was an autistic child who didn't talk much and didn't like to meet people.

In line with the principle of maternal love, Lin Chuqian got up and began to search the house, shouting while searching, "Little pig, where are you?"

She yelled around the house, but no one answered, so she searched in the yard, and finally saw He Mingzhu playing with ants under the tree behind the house.

"Little pig, stop playing and come into the house with me to drink soup."

He Mingzhu turned her head when she heard the voice, nodded obediently, patted her dirty little hands, and ran towards Lin Chuqian.

Seeing that she was dirty, Lin Chuqian quickly reached out to cover her, pulled her to wash her hands, and then brought her into the room comfortably.

After two bowls of chicken soup, He Mingzhu's little face became a little more bloody.

Lin Chuqian was very satisfied, and only then did she have the will to stand up and look at the things in the house. "Keep away the valuable ones, and just find a place to put the rest away."

Hui'er nodded in understanding, and started to tidy up without saying a word.

There were people from that yard who sent things over, so the things they sent were all kinds of strange things.

Hui Er held a pair of fancy embroidered shoes and said with a smile, "The color of these embroidered shoes is really gorgeous."

"It's quite gorgeous." Lin Chuqian nodded, teasing with a smile: "Put away these embroidered shoes, and wear them when you get married in the future."

Hui'er's cheeks flushed, she turned her head away as if she had become angry from embarrassment, and stopped talking and laughing.

Seeing this, Lin Chuqian couldn't help laughing a little more mischievously.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and the wind carried the coolness of early autumn.

Lin Chuqian sat under the eaves and teased the gourd-like He Mingzhu when someone knocked on the door outside the courtyard.

"Is Aunt Bai here?"

When Lin Chuqian heard that it was Steward Liu's voice, she thought that he must have come back because of something, so she quickly got up and went to open the door.

As soon as the door was opened, it turned out to be Butler Liu.

She smiled. "Butler Liu looking for me?"

"Exactly." Butler Liu was also a little tired from walking all the way, looking into the room, he wanted to sit down and talk.

Lin Chuqian hurriedly invited him into the room, and poured him a cup of tea politely.

Steward Liu was a little apprehensive when he took the tea. After looking up at the shabby house, he spoke slowly. "Aunt Bai is now in charge of the house. If you find this place inconvenient, you can change the yard."

"It's okay, I don't think it's inconvenient." Lin Chuqian waved his hand to reject his kindness.

Although the yard is dilapidated, it is quiet.She thought it was very suitable and didn't want to change it.

"But this room is too simple." Butler Liu looked around again, as if the room would collapse at any moment. "Now that you want to change your position, no one else will complain."

Lin Chuqian knew that he meant well, but she still refused with a smile. "It's just a place to sleep, it's the same everywhere."

As soon as these words were blocked, Steward Liu swallowed the words as soon as they reached his throat.

After a brief silence, Lin Chuqian spoke first, "I don't know why Steward Liu came here on purpose?"

Butler Liu, a fat middle-aged man, sat on a chair, slowly took out a key from his pocket and handed it to her.

After Lin Chuqian took it, she was a little dazed.

"Here's the key to the warehouse in the warehouse."

As soon as Lin Chuqian heard it, she understood that this is the key to the warehouse, which is equivalent to the key to a safe!She was in a daze, and asked stupidly, "What do you want me to do with this key?"

Butler Liu didn't expect that she didn't know the reason, so he smiled unnaturally and explained: "The key to the warehouse has always been in the hands of the housekeeper. It used to be the husband Aunt Liu, but now it's Aunt Bai you hands."

Lin Chuqian was embarrassed. If he had a sincere and honest face, he would have thought he was mocking her again.

Reluctantly accepting the key, Butler Liu asked the question that he had to ask during this trip: "Aunt Bai, now that the mansion has changed, do the servants need to be transferred?"

Lin Chuqian didn't expect to start managing the affairs of the mansion so soon. When he asked her, she immediately waved her hand subconsciously: "No need to change, it's just the same as before. Everyone can do whatever they want!"

Butler Liu was not surprised at all. He nodded thoughtfully and then asked, "Zhou Fu has been kicked out of the mansion, so who will take his place?"

Lin Chuqian decided to be a hands-off shopkeeper, so she waved her hand again, and replied casually: "You can handle this matter according to Liu Steward, just pick someone who knows the basics!"

Steward Liu showed embarrassment. "It's up to me to choose the person, I'm afraid it's not suitable!"

"Why isn't it appropriate?" Lin Chuqian didn't allow him to lose confidence in herself, she answered with firm eyes: "Butler Liu, you have been in the mansion for decades, and who among the servants knows better than you who is dishonest? I believe you will be able to choose a suitable person to replace him!"

"But this matter..." Butler Liu is honest and honest, but he also knows that Zhou Fu's fat job is not for everyone, and it feels like offending people to choose that one.

"Don't worry about it, it's settled like this." Lin Chuqian made a final decision, not allowing him to hesitate to refute.

Butler Liu had no choice but to accept it.

Next, Butler Liu asked her a series of trivial and complicated questions, ranging from personnel transfers, to eating and drinking, Lin Chuqian patiently smiled.

Listening patiently throughout the whole process, boldly delegating power, and handing over all power to Butler Liu to make decisions, she should have heard such an ear.

Gradually, Steward Liu also understood her attitude, this is to be a complete shopkeeper!

Although Aunt Liu's housekeeper was almost indifferent before, at least the few fat servants in the mansion were arranged for her own people, but this Aunt Bai seems to be unable to handle other things except for keeping the keys idea.

At the end of the communication, Steward Liu was already numb. When he came, he prepared a series of questions on the way and told her the same as a report, and it was over.

After drinking a cup of tea, it's getting late.

Butler Liu finished reporting everything and stood up to leave.

When he walked out of the door, he saw He Mingzhu who was standing in the room staring at him timidly, and he couldn't help calling softly: "Miss San."

When He Mingzhu heard this, she directly closed the door tightly.

Lin Chuqian also stood up, and said with a embarrassed smile, "Miss San is afraid of strangers, but housekeeper Liu doesn't mind."

"Aunt Bai is serious." Butler Liu may have seen He Mingzhu, and suddenly thought of the other two young masters in the mansion. On the spur of the moment, he blurted out and asked, "Is the eldest lady and the second young master still in the same room?"

Lin Chuqian was taken aback, and then thought of their siblings. Ever since they got sick last time, how are these two doing well?

She didn't understand what he meant by "Still as usual", so she asked, "What does Steward Liu mean by "Still as usual?"
