Time Travel: Remarrying a Little Wolf Dog

Chapter 162: Calming People's Hearts

Even though they have not experienced famine, these people have their own survival wisdom.

They knew that once famine came, they, as servants, would have a hard time.

Who knows, it might even be sold to relieve stress when the situation gets tough.

Such speculation made all the servants panic, fearing that they would be the ones to be sold.

Therefore, everyone worked extremely hard, from morning to night, and did not dare to rest for a moment.

And everyone started to consciously eat less.

They just hoped that the master would keep them because they were hardworking and capable and ate little.

This is definitely not a good phenomenon.

Long-term high mental tension will reduce people's ability to think and make them irritable and angry.

If there is another fuse at this time, it will easily explode.

You know, in ancient times, although cases of slaves killing their masters were rare, they did exist.

The most important thing is that besides Grandpa He and Grandma He, the only person who lives in the old house now is Su Yandudu.

They are all old and weak.

He An, the only young and strong one, only comes back at night.

There were seven servants and five maids in the house.

Among them, in addition to the gatekeeper and several old servants working in the kitchen, there were four servants in their prime and three maids.

If we include their family members who are not on the list, there would be at least twenty people.

More than four times more than the main family.

This is a scary number. If it is not properly controlled, it could easily backfire on you.

After noticing this atmosphere, Su Yan immediately convened a general staff meeting.

I made a very formal guarantee to everyone.

"I know that the recent events outside have made everyone panic. They are worried that the situation will be bad and they will be abandoned by the He family in the future."

The maids and servants below looked at each other, lowered their heads and said nothing.

Su Yan saw all of this, and she continued, "I want to tell you something from my heart today. Although not all of you here are He family's children, most of you have been in the He family all your life."

"What kind of family is the He family? How do they treat their servants? Are they honest or not? I believe each of you knows the answer."

"After so many years of getting along, we have already become a team. I promise here today that as long as the He family eats a bite of meat, everyone will have a bite of soup!"

"Natural disasters and man-made disasters are beyond human control. But as long as everyone doesn't want to leave, the He family won't chase anyone away!"

"When you are old, you will be like the gatekeepers Old Yang and Old Li or the kitchen helper Mrs. Sun, you will get an easy job and live in the He family!"

Su Yan raised one hand and shouted, "Now is a difficult time, and we must unite as one. I am confident that the He family will not abandon anyone. Do you have the confidence to follow the He family through this difficult time?"

Uncle Wu's face flushed, and he clenched his fist excitedly and raised it high, "Be confident!"

The other maids and servants also raised their fists and shouted, "Have faith! Have faith!"

Su Yan raised his hands to stop everyone from talking, and said, "Okay, starting from today, everyone will do their own job and do their own work well. The rest of the time will be the same as before."

"Old Yang, Old Li, and Li Dalang, you must take the lead in securing the front and back doors, and not let any suspicious people in."

Old Yang, Old Li and Li Dalang stepped out and said, "Yes! Don't worry, Madam. We will definitely guard the gate of the He family!"

Su Yan nodded, then looked at the lady who was in charge of the kitchen and asked, "Who does she usually go out to buy?"

The chef stepped forward and answered, "Usually, Chuntao and I go out to buy things."

After saying that, she looked at a young girl in the team.

The young girl stepped out, bowed to Su Yan, and said, "I am Chun Tao."

Su Yan nodded and said, "From today on, you will be assigned a servant to follow you every day when you go out. Uncle Wu, please arrange for this person."

Uncle Wu bowed in response.

The chef and Chuntao's eyes lit up, they looked at each other and knelt down, "Thank you, Madam!"

Su Yan: "You work for the He family, so the He family will naturally protect your safety."

"From today on, every time you go shopping, you must pay more attention to the news in the county. If there is anything important, report it in time!"

The chef and Chuntao said in unison, "Yes!"

Su Yan selected some remaining people from the servants' families and formed two teams with these servants.

Patrolling the old house during the day and at night.

Finally, Su Yan looked at everyone present and shouted loudly, "From today on, everyone should perform their duties and do what they should do. Protecting the old house is also protecting ourselves!"

"Does everyone understand?"

The crowd shouted in response: "Got it!"

Su Yan: "Okay, everyone, disperse and do what you need to do. Uncle Wu, you've been so troubled by so many things at home and outside."

Uncle Wu said hurriedly, "This is what I should do."

Then he said goodbye to Su Yan, followed the large group in front, and went back to arrange various matters.

When Grandfather He came back in the evening and heard about this, he laughed out loud.

Then he gave the family's pair of cards directly to Su Yan, with a tone of appreciation and support, "You've done a great job, keep doing it, the mansion will rely on you in the future."

Su Yan took it with some hesitation and nodded in agreement.

Special situations require special treatment. Once this period of time is over, she will return the pair of cards.

With the matching cards, her identity was not only the fourth lady of the He family, but also the person in charge of the inner house acknowledged by He's grandfather and grandmother.

She was more confident, and at the same time, her promises to the He family's servants were more likely to be trusted by those people.

Ever since Su Yan convened the meeting, the atmosphere in the old house has been completely changed.

Even though the situation outside was getting worse day by day, everyone in the old house seemed to have taken a reassurance pill and felt at ease.

And because of Su Yan's analysis that day, they felt a stronger sense of belonging to the old house.

Nowadays, they not only do their own work diligently, but are also very active in other things like patrolling and helping the doorman to keep an eye on people.

If I used to think of myself as a servant of the He family, no matter how much I worked, I was working for the He family.

Now they truly feel from the bottom of their hearts that they are one with the He family, and that doing something for the He family is doing it for themselves.

Be able to protect the He family as if you were protecting your own family.

Seeing this atmosphere, Su Yan felt relieved.

This was her first time doing something like this, and she was actually quite unsure about it.

Fortunately, the results seem to be good so far.

After the affairs of the He family's inner house were dealt with, Su Yan turned his attention to the outside world.
