[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

Rong Enqing didn't feel embarrassed at all after being taught a lesson by an eight-year-old child. He just felt that the child was too capable and too calm, though a little too precocious, and didn't look like an eight-year-old child at all.

However, current events shape people. As an ordinary person who grew up under the red flag, she did not have a complicated mind. So she did not embarrass herself and immediately admitted her mistake very happily: "You are right. It was my grandmother who was not thoughtful enough."

Yun Ye seemed to feel that he had said something too much before, and his ears immediately turned red with embarrassment. "It was my grandson who was rude and impolite. I'm glad that grandma is not angry."

Rong Enqing smiled and said, "Grandma is not stubborn. You have a point. Why should Grandma be angry? In fact, it's all Grandma's fault for taking things for granted. Grandma only thought that Butler Li was your grandfather's man. He wanted to support you to inherit the Marquis' Mansion, so I thought he was very trustworthy. Now I think it's not appropriate to trust someone so completely."

Yun Ye smiled and said, "Grandmother is a kind person, so she is completely defenseless against others."

Rong Enqing blushed. Was this kid praising her for her innocence? Or was he hinting at her being stupid?

Anyway, she finally had a fair excuse. She sighed and said with a depressed look: "In the past two days, I think you have also seen that grandmother's temperament is not suitable for managing the mansion. When your grandfather was here, he assisted me. Now, in just two days, I feel that I am unable to do it."

Yun Ye looked panicked, "Grandma, what does this mean?"

After Rong Enqing gave him a reassuring look, his gaze fell on Zhang, who had remained silent.

"Zhang, I want to hand over the management of the mansion to you after everyone moves out."

Zhang's face was filled with shock, and her eyes widened unconsciously. This was the first time that Zhang's expression changed so much in front of Rong Enqing.

Rong Enqing was amused. Look, there is no one in this world who is truly free of desires, and there is no one with an absolutely iceberg face. If you don't see his face change, it only means that the stimulation is not enough.

Before Zhang could say anything, Yun Ye had already said anxiously: "Grandma, why are you doing this? If you are angry about what I just said, I will apologize to you now. I have no other intentions, I just want to remind you. Grandson, I really have no other intentions..."

Yun Ye, who had always been calm and composed, looking like an adult, for the first time became anxious and frightened like a normal child, with red eyes.

Rong Enqing wanted to laugh, but also felt a little guilty, so he waved at Yun Ye.

Seeing this, Yun Ye hurried forward and said, "Grandma." His voice was choked with sobs.

Rong Enqing touched his head and said with a smile, "This is how a child should be. Don't be so thoughtful, little kid. Grandmother is not angry. She is sincere when she said she would hand over the management to your mother."

Rong Enqing looked at the child, then at Zhang, and his expression became more serious. "You should have noticed that I am not very good at playing tricks on others or beating around the bush. When something happens, I either confront people head-on and make them lose face, or I beat them up and make a big deal out of a small matter.

“I am not a smooth person and I easily offend people.

"When the Marquis was still around, no matter what I did, someone would back me up.

"But now, the Marquis is gone, Yun Ye is still young, and the Marquis' Mansion has such a reputation. If I cause any more trouble, it will only put the Marquis' Mansion in a more embarrassing situation. If it drags down Yun Ye, it will be even worse."

"Grandma." Yun Ye looked at Rong Enqing, his eyes filled with tears.

Rong Enqing smiled, looked at Zhang and said, "You come from a famous family, and you can raise such an outstanding child like Yun Ye. I believe you can manage the Marquis' Mansion well and be a solid backing for Yun Ye. Zhang, are you willing to take over the housekeeper's power for Yun Ye?"

Zhang was silent for a while, and finally nodded seriously: "Okay. But," Zhang looked at Rong Enqing uncertainly, "What about mother in the future?"

Rong Enqing waved his hand and smiled happily, "You don't have to worry about this. I've thought about it all. From now on, you will take care of everything in the mansion, and I will be responsible for living a happy and leisurely life. I want to live to be a hundred years old, and I don't want to worry so much anymore."

Rong Enqing lowered his voice and said with a strange look like a thief: "Otherwise, why do you think I just divided the second, third, and fourth rooms together?"

After these words were spoken, the last bit of doubt in Zhang and Yun Ye's hearts disappeared.

After losing his position as housekeeper, Rong Enqing felt relieved.

Some people may think that if they were born in the ancient harem, the power of housekeeper is of great significance. If they want to protect their status and live a decent life, they must hold the power of housekeeper firmly in their hands.

However, these are nothing to Rong Enqing.

Look at the original body, he spent his whole life fighting for power and profit, but ended up with a miserable ending.

Rong Enqing has thought about it all. In the future, the personnel in the mansion will be simple and there will be no intrigue. She has plenty of money to spend, so why should she care about the family? She should worry less and enjoy life more. She should work hard to figure out the reason why the countdown above Yun Ye's head is increasing. She can live a long life in the future. Isn't that good?

So, after giving up the power of housekeeper, Rong Enqing's mind and eyes were filled with the countdown above his head.

Silent all night.

The next day, the first thing Ron did when he woke up in the morning was to look in the mirror and check the time.

Sure enough, one day was missing. The countdown went from 9 years and 362 days to 9 years and 361 days.

Wait for Yun Ye to come and pay his respects, then look at the time above Yun Ye's head.

This time, there was no surprise, just like hers, one day was reduced, from 1 year and 364 days to 1 year and 363 days.

Rong Enqing was thinking about the countdown the whole day, and before he knew it, another day had passed.

The next day, it was time for the third room to move in.

After the move was finalized, the three houses each sent people to clean up the mansion they were about to move in. Therefore, on the official moving day, nothing unexpected happened.

The belongings of each family were carried out from the gate of the mansion in boxes, and carriages loaded with boxes left the mansion one by one.

Because the noise of the move was quite loud, it alarmed the neighbors. Many families sent people to inquire about the news. Some unsophisticated families gathered outside the Shun'an Marquis's mansion to watch the excitement. From time to time, they would talk about it with the people next to them.

We started moving at 7:00 am in the morning and finished at 4:00 pm in the afternoon.

After the last carriage loaded with boxes drove away from the mansion, people from the second, third, and fourth houses stood at the gate.

Rong Enqing led Zhang, Yun Shu and Yun Ye to the door to see them off.

Although the Marquis' Mansion had a very ugly situation in the past, today is the day when several families move in, so gifts have to be given. After all, some effort should be made to save face for outsiders.
