Chapter 310

Chen Guanlou entered the Marquis mansion from the side door for the first time, quite novel.

Suddenly receiving notice that the eldest young mistress Lu Shi of the Marquis mansion wanted to see him, he knew that Master Ye, this villain, must have reported him to the eldest young mistress.

Not a man! What kind of ability is it to find a woman to report.

What surprised him even more was that for such a small matter, the eldest young mistress Lu Shi actually decided to come forward and talk to him in person. Was it worth it? Why to this extent?

Or was it that the women of the Marquis mansion were idle and had nothing to do, finding something to amuse themselves.

Entering the side door, led by a servant all the way through corridors and alleys, just like entering a labyrinth, it took a long time to reach the second gate. Then led by an old woman, taking him into the backyard flower hall.

Thanks to his surname Chen, a family member, otherwise he wouldn't be qualified to enter the backyard.

Sitting in the flower hall, the maid served tea and snacks.

Not to mention anything else, the maids of the Marquis mansion were all beautiful, and the snacks were extremely delicious, which couldn't be bought outside. The hospitality was also very thorough, making people feel appropriate everywhere, and there was no situation of bullying guests.

It seemed that the old master had rectified the Marquis mansion, and it still had obvious effects. At least the servants of the Marquis mansion had fewer arrogant airs. Even if they looked at people and served dishes, they did it very subtly.

Sitting for half a cup of tea, the eldest young mistress Lu Shi finally appeared.

Lu Shi was a mature woman, beautiful and dignified, with a lot of style, and between her brows, there was a natural romantic charm, and one could tell at a glance that she was the mistress of a wealthy family. What Liu Shi, Pan Niangzi, in front of Lu Shi, were proper concubine styles, unable to get on the stage.

Seeing Lu Shi was like seeing the country prosperous and the people at peace, seeing the family business flourishing.

Chen Guanlou suddenly realized that the secret to marrying a wife in a wealthy family, Lu Shi was the best template.

Both beautiful and majestic, gentle and virtuous, a good mistress, making people afraid to underestimate.

"Seen the eldest young mistress." Chen Guanlou took the lead in saluting.

"Family brothers, why be so polite."

"Etiquette cannot be abolished." Chen Guanlou was serious, maintaining the necessary distance. He would never stick to it just because his surname was Chen.

Lu Shi pursed her lips slightly. "Today, I rashly invited Lou Ge'er to the mansion, hoping for forgiveness."

"Eldest young mistress is too polite."

"You and my husband are clan brothers, if you don't mind, you can call me eldest sister-in-law." Lu Shi released goodwill.

Chen Guanlou didn't dare to stick to it, and could only compensate with a simple smile, not responding to this.

Out of the five clothes, count as a fart brother. Unless Chen Guanfu personally recognized him as a brother, he would never change his mouth to call Lu Shi sister-in-law. Otherwise, he would never break the rules.

Lu Shi saw that he didn't respond, and didn't force it. Thinking that he was a person with a bottom line and principles, not climbing up the pole, he must be a person who wanted face.

"Today I invited you to the mansion, there is one thing, hoping you can help."

"Eldest young mistress, please speak."

Chen Guanlou said, thinking in his heart, if the other party mentioned Master Ye's matter, then there was nothing to talk about. He and Master Ye were not relatives, nor did they have conflicts of interest, handling things according to the rules instead of sending people to deliberately make things difficult, which was giving enough face. If it were someone else he didn't like coming to the Heavenly Prison, he wouldn't stop until he tossed the other party.

"Zhang Wenf was imprisoned, Zhang Yushi was anxious. Zhang Yushi hated evil like an enemy, and had offended many people over the years. Worried that someone would be unfavorable to Zhang Wenf, learning that you manage the Jia-sized prison, so he asked the Marquis mansion to help, wanting to ask you to look at the face of the Marquis mansion, take care of Zhang Wenf, and don't let him be harmed by others."

Eh?

It was actually this matter.

He said so, how idle Lu Shi must be, how unable to think, to stand up for Master Ye.

A person who could be the mistress of the house, really had a few brushes, distinguishing weight and light.

"I have one thing I don't understand, hoping the eldest young mistress will solve it." Chen Guanlou said so.

Lu Shi smiled and encouraged. "Please speak."

"Regarding the Zhang family, why did the eldest young mistress come forward, instead of the steward of the mansion, or some young master?"

Logically speaking, this type of matter should be handled by men, not women. Women to women, men to men, was the norm for social interaction in this society.

Lu Shi coughed lightly, she didn't expect Chen Guanlou to be so direct.

"I won't hide it from you, the Zhang family is looking for the eldest branch, not the Marquis mansion, do you understand?"

Chen Guanlou suddenly realized.

The eldest branch was a bit miserable, with few people.

Lu Shi and the heir Chen Guanfu only had two children, and they were still young, not yet at the age to be independent. Chen Guanfu was away all year round, but he took several concubines and gave birth to several illegitimate sons and daughters, all of whom were still young.

Chen Guanfu's several illegitimate brothers were not at home, and were sent out by the old master to serve. This allowed the second branch to pick up a big bargain and take the power of managing the house.

Now Zhang Yushi asked the Marquis mansion's eldest branch for help, and the eldest branch didn't even have a proper male who could handle things. The head steward could come forward. Alas, the head steward had been busy with his feet not touching the ground recently, and people couldn't be seen.

And so, Lu Shi could only bite the bullet and come forward to see Chen Guanlou. Anyway, they were all family members, not outsiders, and didn't break the rules.

"Taking care of Zhang Wenf, this matter is simple. However, why would Zhang Yushi worry that someone would be unfavorable to Zhang Wenf? I have been working in the Jia-sized prison for several years, and I have only heard of such a situation. The Jia-sized prison, overall, is quite compliant, and everyone doesn't want to cause lives. Does Zhang Yushi have a specific target of suspicion?"

"I don't know the specific inside story. Since Zhang Yushi has this worry, I think it's not without a target. Lou Ge'er, this matter will trouble you."

"Eldest young mistress, rest assured, a small matter, I will arrange for people to take care of Zhang Wenf after I go back, ensuring his safety."

"This is excellent! After this matter, the Zhang family will also accept your feelings."

"I am helping the eldest branch." Chen Guanlou stated his attitude; he and the eldest branch were on the same path, and the Zhang family had nothing to do with him.

Lu Shi was very satisfied with Chen Guanlou's answer, thinking that the old master didn't misread the person.

After the business was discussed, Lu Shi mentioned Master Ye inadvertently. "My cousin, who has been smooth sailing since childhood, has never suffered setbacks, and has developed a temper of looking down on the world. If he has any inappropriate words, I will apologize for him, Lou Ge'er don't be the same as him."

Chen Guanlou stood up quickly, avoiding Lu Shi's salute, and said busily: "Eldest young mistress is too kind. Master Ye and I have no contradictions. It's also my fault, I didn't explain things clearly. The people below just handle things according to the rules. Everyone knows that the Heavenly Prison is a place that recognizes money but not people.

Please rest assured, eldest young mistress, I will explain clearly next time he comes to visit, and won't let the prison guards mess around. The prison guards don't understand etiquette, and it's inevitable that there will be offenses, hoping the eldest young mistress will tell Master Ye, don't be the same as the prison guards, it seems not grand enough."

Lu Shi's eyes changed slightly. Before, she thought the other party was easy to talk to, but now it seemed she had come to a conclusion too early. This soft knife clearly meant that Master Ye's actions were not grand enough, and a dignified young master was actually the same as a prison guard, losing face.

In the final analysis, Master Ye was stingy.

Lu Shi had no rebuttal, and finally left in depression.
