Chapter 51: New housekeeper

When Su Zimo woke up again, the morning sun had spilled through the curtains on the bedroom floor.
In his ears, there were no disputes about the nightmare world, nor the sounds of cars and horses in metropolises, only Yan Xia's friends and unknown birds in the mountains. What he smelled was no longer the decay and tide of the nightmare world, but the faint floral fragrance in the room and the fresh air in the mountains in the morning.
Su Zimo got up in such a comfortable environment, glanced at the only shoes on the floor that he remembered to take off last night, got up and let his feet step on the comfortable wooden floor, and stretched out his tiredness as if it was run over by something. Body, and then walked over to unlock the bedroom door, let the door open a slit.
"Homeowner."
The sound of Su Zimo opening the door attracted a maid on the fifth floor. The young maid named Ye Ning was originally responsible for taking care of Su Zimo's grandpa. It was also the most reassuring maid in the whole main house. .
The long, neatly curled hair, wearing a pair of glasses, with a serious expression on his face, and a palm-sized notebook hidden in his hand. Su Zimo heard that she once wanted to apply for the position of the new butler of the Su family, but Su Hewen refused because of her qualifications and lack of experience.
"Homeowner, good morning." Ye Ning bowed her head slightly, and her serious expression was indeed more like a housekeeper than a full-time maid. "The kitchen prepares morning tea, which can be enjoyed in the bedroom or garden."
"Who is in the garden?" Su Zimo glanced at the clothes that he didn't have time to change and asked.
"Master, Siye, Miss Mianmian and Master Hewen." Ye Ning looked at the notebook in his hand. "Master hopes that he will have time to discuss things with his family in the morning."
The ability of the full-time maid lady is good, but the memory is not good, so I like to keep everything in my notebook, and it will not delay things.
And the old man in Ye Ning's mouth is naturally Su Zimo's father Su Gan, the Su Jialang Dang who had three or four illegitimate daughters outside, hiding his eldest son. Su Zimo said, "You go first The garden is ready, I will come later."
"Yes." Ye Ning said, adding another sentence, "Homeowner, the empty room on the second floor, Master He Wen has let us organize it, you can live there at any time."
"I see." It was Su Zimo's decision to move to the second floor where Grandpa had lived. There were many books he hadn't read in the study room on Grandpa's second floor, and the entire second floor was full of Su Zimo and Grandpa Su Heng. The memories between them are filled with the teachings of the old man. As long as he walks in the corridor on the second floor, he can feel that he can think more calmly than before.
After sending the maid away, Su Zimo closed the door again, and chose a set of student-like shirts and trousers from the closet, as well as a thin black silk belt tied around the neckline. Although there are people in the silly four years-it should be that Su Hewen has prepared a lot of clothes that meet the size, but most of them are still the same style as Su Zimo when he was in school.
After walking into the bathroom in the bedroom, he took care of it and flicked away the things he experienced in the nightmare world like dust. Su Zimo dried his hair and put on the clothes he prepared to leave the bedroom.
Because Su Qian made a request for "discussions," Su Zimo did not intend to return to "Yu Yiyu" for a while. But when I thought about seeing the ghost umbrella and Peng Peng at the store all night, Su Zimo found a mobile network tablet and charger from his bedside table, which was sent by his fourth uncle, Su Ni, and then pulled away behind him, "An Yu Yi Yu" Door.
Su Zimo, who took a step back, glanced at the store, but found that the store door was closed, and the black umbrella and music score were placed in their original positions, but his ghost butler and "child labor" were missing.
Although I know that the two won’t be able to watch the store overnight, but Su Zimo did not expect to see the two figures early in the morning. Maybe he went back to the body, maybe he ran not far from the body. Going somewhere, Su Zimo didn't even think about looking for it, just put the tablet and power supply in a conspicuous place on the counter, and then returned to his bedroom.
Early in the morning before the opening time of the ordinary store, Su Zimo did not intend to disturb their free time.
When leaving the bedroom and going downstairs, Su Zimo suddenly found that today's Su family is different from the past. When they dismissed the white housekeeper before, they thought that the other old servants of the Su family would be more responsible, but they did not expect changes. Not big, after all, they are the "old man" who took care of Su Zimo, the grandson, from Su Heng, who said that he took care of the three generations of the Su family. Although he has completed his work, he has a spirit of work. It's not as good as before.
But every servant Su Zimo saw in the corridor today was straight and full of energy.
"Is there anything good today?" Su Zimo met Ye Ning waiting in the lobby, so he asked curiously.
"Master, Master Wen He said that there will be a housekeeper coming to apply for the job today, and that housekeeper seems to have a resume of training at a foreign housekeeper's college. The chance of success is great, so everyone wants to show it in front of the new housekeeper." Ye Ning When she spoke, she didn't lower her voice, and she didn't seem to worry about the servants around her hearing. After all, she was the only one who needed to take care of Su Zimo.
"Morning tea is ready."
Su Zimo took Ye Li to the garden next to the laurel tree, where a perfect and unobstructed shade was formed under the decoration of laurel and other evergreen trees, with a long table covered with table cloth and several courtyards. The chair, the cool morning breeze, came slowly. Su Zimo's familiar father, fourth uncle, Su Mianmian and Su Hewen had already sat on it, some looked at the newspaper with nostalgia, and some were already viewing various data on the tablet.
Although Su Hewen wouldn't speak out, he now has a heavier burden than everyone sitting here. This is also the first time Su Zimo saw him stay at home to drink morning tea. He has long been like Su Ni's wife Rui Qiu went to deal with affairs like that.
Su Zimo never stopped Su Hewen's life-threatening work, because he said too much that this bloodless brother would not say a word until Su Zimo withdrew his foreword. The whole atmosphere is like a family cold war, and the time is short. Hours, growing for several days, continue to toss but it seems that Su Zimo seems unreasonable.
Although the courtyard environment is not as good as the pavilion in the hilltop garden, it is not necessary to overlook the entire Shoushan city early in the morning.
"Mo Mo." Su Gan's fancy mentality looks younger than his son. When he saw Su Zi Mo coming, he smiled and raised his milk glass. The mentality is young, but it is also continuing to enter old age, and it is time for calcium supplementation.
Su Zimo and the others present greeted each other, and by the way, took the cotton candy in the hand of cousin Su Mianmian, and soaked it in his milk glass under the guidance of the children. The whole table seemed to be Su Hewen's. In front of him is a cup of American coffee.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Su Hewen's eyebrows were tight, and he looked at Su Zimo, who had some dark circles. "I remember you had returned to your room long ago."
"Maybe it's... watched a terrible horror movie." Su Zimo said with a smile, "Brother, you may not have much sleep time than me."
"I'm used to it, but you have always had enough sleep." Su Hewen pointed out seriously.
"Xiao Hewen, don't be so strict." Su Gan stopped immediately. "Mo Mo hasn't had any entertainment in four years, and it's a lot of interesting things. I'm just watching a horror movie. It's no big deal." Yes, next time I plan to take Momo to the latest virtual bar to play..."
"no need."
"No."
Su Zimo and Su Hewen blurted out almost simultaneously, and then Su Gan closed his mouth.
"Father, Ye Ning said you want to discuss with me?" Su Zimo took a sip of milk with marshmallows, and then asked curiously, "Is it related to the daughters you said before?"
"Ah, they are all very cute children, and some will start high school." Su Gan couldn't hear any embarrassment in his tone, as if tossing Su Zimo to the old man, and then looking for a new girl. Friends, there are many more illegitimate daughters who have nothing to do with him.
"But it's still too early to talk about the children." Su Gan smiled. "Don't your grandfather's will have said before. Will you meet once a week and even the lawyer will be there to verify? Tomorrow is Saturday, so Your second uncle and third uncle will come over for dinner, you have to prepare in advance, so that they don’t get any moth out."
"I see, but nothing should happen at the first party." Su Zimo nodded, always feeling that there was something special this Sunday besides the Saturday party he just learned. But since Su Zimo didn't remember it, it might not be an important thing.
"Be careful." Su Hewen reminded as he lowered his head to mark the tablet.
"Mo Mo, are there any arrangements for today?" Four uncles Su Ni is one of the most laid-back. His principle of doing things is that he will continue to turn around without the earth, and his only task is to turn around his family, "I Today I just want to take Mianmian to the bottom of the mountain to listen to a musical."
"If I say that there is nothing to do, it seems too sorry for my brother." Su Zimo glanced at Su Hewen, who has done most of the work. Although he has long heard that he has a very strong team, Su Zimo also Not allowing myself to relax, "My brother has already transferred what I need to be familiar with in advance, so I have to complete the required homework within a week."
Su Hewen’s
homework
for Su Zimo is placed on a non-networked tablet. Except for some data that makes Su Zimo less interested, his favorite content is actually some Su Hewen and The team has revised or proposed a project plan, which is categorized by company level. Su Zimo needs to comment with his own ideas without knowing the result, and finally compare these formed projects and the status quo and find opportunities Discuss some key points with Su Hewen.
Because of this, Su Zimo called it "homework".
What Su Zimo did not know is that his commenting speed and completion rate were actually faster than Su Hewen imagined, but because Su Hewen was not good at praise, so in order to express his deep recognition and appreciation of Su Zimo's ability, It doubled the workload of Su Zimo at the speed of the power, and also mixed some project planning cases that have not really started, and added practical projects without Su Zimo's knowledge.
"One year is very short." Su Hewen once again sent a signal of friendly encouragement, successfully making Su Zimo's sense of pressure rise.
"What about that ghost steward?" Su Hewen took a sip of coffee, put down the tablet in his hand, and looked at Su Zimo like he was talking about a business, "Ye Ning said he disappeared from last night."
"He, resigned." Su Zimo looked down at the milk glass. It was impossible to say that after the ghost umbrella, it was such a thing as a full-time butler in "Yu Yuyu". "Maybe I feel that I am not qualified for this job."
"Unsurprisingly." Su Hewen's eyes were sharp. "Weird name, weird dress, ugly tattoos on his face, frivolous language, and no knowledge of the housekeeper's affairs. As a housekeeper, there is no merit. In fact, I don't know yet. Where did you bring him in from the beginning, and what flash points did he attract your attention?"
"Maybe... an online recruitment website? As for the flash point..." Su Zimo thought about the ghost umbrella that he could throw himself away and was full of brains, and hesitantly said, "It may be handy and convenient. Carry it, can you take it everywhere?"
Su Zimo is actually very difficult to describe that feeling, although the ghost umbrella is not very reliable.
But it seems that no matter where he is, he can hold the umbrella in his hand and walk in any world.
That cannot be done by anyone around Su Zimo.
"I invited a butler with a very good resume to apply. He lives a little far away and may not arrive until the afternoon." Su Hewen looked at the information on his mobile phone and continued, "Because I'm a college student, I can guarantee The authenticity of the resume. I have sent it to your mobile phone. Whether to hire or not depends on your decision, without worrying about my relationship with his classmates. After all, we are not familiar with it."
Although Su Hewen said a lot of words, it was already concise.
"With Xiao Hewen, your classmates, even if you go abroad to study, you should already be working. I heard that such butlers rarely leave their posts." Su Gan asked curiously.
"He experienced some strange things." Su Hewen also shook his head. "I heard from a friend that he left his previous position and got in touch with him, but when I talked to him at that time, it seemed..."
"like?"
"It seems to be talking to the deceased." Su Hewen frowned slightly. "His voice and tone are completely different from before. He can only be described as lifeless, and he can't get up to anything, and hangs up without saying a few words. phone."
"It doesn't sound reliable." Even Su Ni was a little worried.
"I've heard some of his abilities, so I also feel very strange. I haven't mentioned it with you before. But yesterday morning he suddenly called me and said he needed a job, and he can start working right away." Su Hewen continued, "Phone The voice over there seemed to come to life suddenly, no difference from college, so I wanted to give him an interview."
"It's weird." Su Zimo admitted that the strange butler had aroused his curiosity.
"What's even more strange is that he hopes to have a two-month trial period without pay." Su Hewen made another point.
"Voluntarily request unpaid work?" Su Gan was also surprised.
Su Hewen nodded and continued: "He said something very strange, saying that if he is still alive after two months, he hopes to get a more generous reward than planned."
Then, Su Hewen wrote a six-digit number on the dining table.
"The appetite is not small, saying what is still alive... as if our Su's family is like a sea of ​​swords and fire." Su Gan looked at the string of numbers carefully. "The money itself doesn't matter, but I hope this housekeeper's work ability can meet his expectations. The request. Speaking of which, within two months of the trial period, can we also ask for termination at any time?"
"Not bad."
When Su Hewen was speaking, Su Zimo had opened the communication software, and found the resume of the new housekeeper from the information sent by Su Hewen.
Not to mention those bright and beautiful resumes, Su Zimo noticed the photo in the upper right corner of the resume. It was a young man with good facial features, not handsome, but gave a shrewd feeling.
What attracts Su Zimo is not how the person in the photo looks, but because even if the person in the photo does not have a long beard, his hair is a sharp back, and his eyes look very spirited, but this guy in the photo... It is clearly the Mr. Madman who has encountered in the nightmare world before!
The last nightmare world was the eighteenth time the madman had experienced. These seniors experienced a nightmare world once a month, so two months later, it was exactly the time he and his Su Hewen proposed to participate in the twentieth nightmare world. There is also a reasonable explanation.
But... at this juncture of life and death, the lunatic wants to find a job and asks for a high salary for himself two months later?
"Mufeng?" Su Zimo glanced at the name on his resume and looked up to Su Hewen. "Brother, it should be a very interesting new housekeeper."
"I hope it will be better with the last housekeeper." Su Hewen raised his eyebrows pointedly.
After enjoying his family's morning tea, Su Zimo found a reason to go back to the old man's study on the second floor, let Ye Ning help prepare some things that can be found at home, and then send them in a way that ordinary people can't imagine. Instantly arrived at the "An Yu Yi Yu" store in Jiangdu.
After coming out of the back door, Su Zimo found that Peng Peng was still missing, while the ghost umbrella looked at the used tablet while making tea for himself? His concentration was not even seen by Su Zimo who returned to the shop.
Su Zimo has always felt that some powerful fierce ghosts should be as intuitive as the novels. Any wind and grass can attract their attention. But the one he kept in his shop not only lost himself, but also found nothing unexpected.
Seeing the ghost umbrella making tea so happy, Su Zimo didn’t bother, but just opened the back door and moved the prepared things into "Yu Yu" a little bit. For example, the computer Su Zimo used to do his homework, some books recommended by Grandpa Su, and Ye Ning found some green plants and other things.
Su Zimo actually liked the two flower gardens on both sides of the shop door. They seemed to be more green under the early morning sun, so he found some green dill and ivy and placed it above the upright piano, where the shelves were empty And on the counter next to it. Let the long vine leaves fall naturally, adding a spring meaning to the hot summer.
The maid also found an empty large frame and glue, which allowed Su Zimo to hide the "real" fragments in the frame of the mirror, so that it was always better to sell than a bare fragment.
It's just that every time Su Zimo passed by the mirror on the shelf after the repair, he always felt that his shadow in the mirror was half a beat slow.
After trimming the vine branches and wiping the container with a rag, Su Zimo found that the ghost umbrella was still there to make tea, and for Su Zimo who could accept instant coffee, this was the case. The tea making process is more exaggerated than Su Hewen's freshly ground coffee.
"Mr. Ghost Umbrella." Su Zimo looked at the ghost umbrella blocked by the slab standing on the counter and squinted, "There are two people in the shop, one is clothed and the other is sitting There is tea brewing. One person trimmed the plants, another person sits there to make tea. One person wipes the container, and the other person sits there to make tea. What do you think will be the relationship between these two people?"
Su Zimo still hopes that Mr. Li Gui can remember that he is now a "butler in a corner" but not a treasure of the town.
And the ghost umbrella finally put down the glass teapot that seemed to be a treasure, and the lines around the corners of his eyes seemed to be able to hook people's souls. After seeing Su Zimo, who was holding both hands with a rag, the ghost umbrella asked seriously, "Awesome love?"
"..." Su Zimo was silent for a moment and sighed helplessly, "It is the shop owner who did the job of the clerk, but the clerk is making tea here."
"Uh huh? Is the other "person" the boss just mentioned me?" The ghost umbrella showed an innocent smile. "I'm not a person."
"..."
With that, the ghost umbrella carefully held up the glass teapot that he had studied for a long time. Su Zimo could see the tender green tea leaves with full weight and some brightly colored flowers in it. It looked like glass rather than tea. Microscopic bonsai in the bottle.
"Taste my newly-developed flower tea, named...'Happy'." Ghost Umbrella's hesitation for a moment makes people think that this sloppy name may be temporary.
I always thought Ghost Umbrella was Suzimo who was lazily making tea for himself. At this time, I could only watch Ghost Umbrella quietly and take out a glass teacup, brew a cup of light warm tea, and carefully delivered it to him. .
"There is a flower tea shop next door, so I made a pot according to the video, which looks better than the one on the video, but I don't know how to drink it." The ghost umbrella paused, and it was full of confidence. Nodded, "It must be the best in the world."
Su Zimo took a sip carefully, thinking that so many tea leaves would make the tea extremely bitter, but at the instant of the tea entrance, he felt the freshness of mint. The feeling of this cup of tea... It can be said that the initial taste is bitter in the freshness, but the sweetness is left at the tip of the tongue after the entrance.
Indeed, it can really give people a "happy" feeling.
"Peng Peng's ability is not too strong, this store is a very special place for Li Gui, the power here can warm up Li Gui, and because this power is too strong, it is easy to let Li Gui fall into a state similar to a sleep. , So I don’t come out often during the day.
Ghost Umbrella saw Su Zimo’s satisfied expression while drinking tea, and the lines and colors of the corners of his eyes seemed to become brighter. I went to the bookstore next door and bought him a few exercises for Xiaoshengchu, which he could do when he woke up."
"..." Su Zimo didn't think Peng Peng would like this gift, and Peng Peng's children's appearance at this time was only caused by amnesia. The real Peng Peng should be the white-eyed young man who had met in the nightmare time. Lying weakly on the bed, it seems to have stronger power.
and……
"You have money to buy tea and books?" Su Zimo questioned the soul while holding the tea cup.
"Money?" The ghost umbrella tilted its head blankly.
"..."
"Sorry, has the store been opened yet?"
Just when Su Zimo was choking, the sound of a stranger suddenly came from the direction of the shop door. "An Yu Yi Yu" seemed to welcome the first guest since its opening.
