[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life
Chapter 20 If You Don’t Want It, Sell It
While Yun Hao was hesitating, Rong Enqing had already said to the servants of the Second House with a smile: "It seems that the Second House is not going to keep you anymore."
Everyone's faces changed, and they heard Rong Enqing instructing Li, the butler beside him, "Remember all these people from the second house, and sell them all off in a few days."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces suddenly turned pale, and almost in an instant, everyone fell to the ground.
"Please have mercy, Madam! Please have mercy, Madam!"
"Please Madam, please don't sell this slave girl!"
"Madam, please spare my life! I don't want to be sold! Wuuuuu..."
The twenty or so people in the second room, regardless of gender, age or status, were all trembling with fear and wailing.
Rong Enqing sighed deeply and said earnestly, "You've asked the wrong person for help. You should ask your Second Master and Second Madam for help. You are from the Second House, so you should follow the Second House. If the Second House doesn't want you, the Marquis' Mansion won't need so many people to serve you in the future!"
Anyone who heard this would have to say that what Rong Enqing said made sense.
So, as soon as Rong Enqing finished speaking, the people from the second house kowtowed to Yun Hao and his wife, begging them to stay.
Yun Hao looked at Rong Enqing with deep eyes, suppressed his anger, and said loudly to the people who were kowtowing in the courtyard: "All of you, please stand up. When did I say I don't want you anymore? Madam is joking with you. You are all from our second house, and you will naturally follow us in the future."
"Really? Really?" Everyone still couldn't believe it. If it was true, why didn't anyone speak up when the lady asked?
Yun Hao frowned slightly, but still said patiently: "It's absolutely true. Don't think too much about it. If we really don't want you, where can we find servants as attentive as you in the future?"
After hearing this, everyone finally felt relieved and kept thanking him, "Thank you, Second Master!" "Thank you very much, Second Master!"... Everyone then wiped their tears or patted their chests and slowly got up from the ground.
Rong Enqing smiled and said, "Okay, it's just a misunderstanding. Don't get angry with your master. Your master was probably distracted for a moment and forgot to talk to him, which led to the misunderstanding. Okay, you can go back."
Everyone in the second room was stunned for a moment, then they bowed and left quickly.
Rong Enqing smiled and turned his gaze to the third room, "What about you? Are you taking all the servants from the third room with you?"
The couple in the third room nodded hurriedly: "We'll take them all away."
The couple in the fourth room also said they wanted to take the person away.
As for the Jiang family’s people, they would naturally be taken away as well.
At this point, except for the thirty guards who were called servants, half of the servants in the mansion had been dealt with.
The eldest wife had no servants belonging to the family, and the fifth wife, Yun Shu, had only three. Rong Enqing did not ask about these two wives.
After all, if the three people who served Yun Shu were not loyal to her, they would not have been suffering with her in the side courtyard until now.
Just when everyone thought that the assignment of servants ended here, Rong Enqing spoke again.
"Those serving in Qinghui Hall, please stand up."
Everyone was shocked.
Qinghui Hall is the main courtyard of the Marquis' Mansion. The people serving in Qinghui Hall are either the ones who used to serve Marquis Yun Zhen, or the ones who serve Rong Enqing himself.
The people in Qinghui Hall were a little confused for a moment. They looked at each other, but finally a large number of people stood up.
Rong Enqing counted them, and wow, there were more than thirty people!
Rong Enqing said to Butler Li, "You can select a few of the people who served the old marquis in the past to serve Brother Ye in the future."
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of those whose future was uncertain due to Yun Zhen's death lit up, and they all looked at Butler Li eagerly.
Butler Li is the most capable person around Yun Zhen, so no one knows better than him which of the people serving Yun Zhen are loyal, which are capable, and which are useful.
Butler Li walked up to these people and looked at each of them carefully. After a moment, he selected five people from them.
One was a middle-aged man in his forties, and the remaining four were young people in their twenties.
"Madam, there are not five people available."
He didn't say anything else.
Rong Enqing nodded and waved to Yun Ye who was standing beside him.
Seeing this, Yun Ye hurried forward and said, "Grandma."
"These five people followed your grandfather. Now they are given to you. Please give them names."
Yun Ye nodded, turned around and looked at the five people, and said seriously: "The fact that you were chosen by Butler Li shows that you are all capable people in front of my grandfather. I hope that when you follow me in the future, you will be loyal like you followed my grandfather."
"Yes, sir." The five men bowed and said in unison.
Yun Ye's expression eased and he asked, "What were your names before?"
The middle-aged man in his forties answered: "Old slave Hu San."
The four young men answered at the same time: "The youngest is Ah Zhong." "The youngest is Ah Li." "The youngest is Ah Qing." "The youngest is Ah Shu."
Yun Ye thought for a moment, then said, "From now on, Hu San will be called Hu Shan, and you will be called Zi Zhong, Zi Li, Zi Qing, and Zi Shu."
The five people said in unison again: "Thank you, young marquis, for the name."
With the new name, they have truly changed from being the old marquis's people to the young marquis's people, and their future is promising.
Seeing the five people bowing down before Yun Ye with sincere submission, Rong Enqing couldn't help but feel sincere admiration in his eyes and heart.
The fact that these five people were chosen shows that they are all capable and loyal to the old Marquis Yun Zhen. Yun Ye did not ask them to work hard in the future, but emphasized their loyalty. It can be seen that Yun Ye is good at grasping the key points!
Even the names were slightly changed based on the original ones, indicating that they do not need to forget their roots and that they have a new beginning.
Rong Enqing could only sigh that he was inferior to him.
The five chosen people stepped aside, and the rest of the people became more cautious.
However, this time Rong Enqing no longer cared about the people who had served Yun Zhen, but instead turned her attention to the dozen or so maids and old women who served her.
The housekeeper was Aunt Zhang. The head maids were Meixiang and Lanxiang. Four second-class maids, four third-class maids, and four maids who were not of the same rank. Wow, a total of fifteen people.
While Rong Enqing was looking at these fifteen people, these fifteen people were also nervously waiting for their fate.
The second and third-rank maids were relatively stable, only slightly sweating, but the rough maids were already pale and shaky.
Nanny Zhang and Meixiang were in a calm mood. They had always been highly valued by Rong Enqing, so they rested easy.
Lanxiang was originally fearless, but unfortunately she had just been punished in the morning and was now unsure.
Tension always lasts a very long time. Rong Enqing clearly just looked at them back and forth a few times, and used this opportunity to review his original memory in his mind. Everyone seemed to have been waiting for a long time and did not even dare to breathe.
Finally, Rong Enqing spoke, "Meixiang stays, and you, you, you...stay too."
In addition to Meixiang, Rong Enqing also ordered two third-class maids and two maids for menial tasks.
Those who were not called out suddenly froze in place.
