Transmigrated into a short-lived widow? Cold-faced uncle fights for my life
Chapter 49: Not even a little bit presentable
Ever since Lu Yun came to the Wei family, she has always appeared gentle and easy to talk to, both in the eyes of Zhou and the servants.
It was the first time that Shuang Ji saw her so ferocious, with a green face and sharp fangs, as if she wanted to bite her throat!
He was so frightened that he fell silent, lowered his head, and dared not say another word.
But Lu Yun was angry, so how could he let her go so easily?
He glared at her fiercely and warned her in a firm tone.
"Remember, if you are not allowed to say anything, shut your mouth tightly! It is not your turn to comment on my affairs! If I hear you say it again, you dare to point fingers at me, believe it or not, I will tear your mouth to pieces, you slut?"
Shuang Ji lowered his head even more tightly, silently clenched the hem of his clothes, his heart full of humiliation, but he could only whisper "yes".
There was no way. Even though Lu Yun had no official status, she was now in charge of the general's household expenses and had given birth to the eldest young master's only son.
Therefore, no one in the mansion dared to offend her easily.
As one of her personal maids, Shuang Ji naturally did not dare to...
The two walked forward and arrived at the warehouse.
The housekeeper had been waiting for Lu Yun here for a long time. After opening the door and taking inventory, the anger on his face quickly disappeared, and in an instant only excitement remained.
The room is filled with jewels and precious stones, making it sparkle. Who wouldn’t love gold, silver and treasures?
"Miss Lu, we have just moved into the new mansion, and each courtyard needs to be repaired and updated. Please decide how to spend the money, and I will take care of it."
Lu Yun narrowed her eyes slightly. If possible, she would like to put all the gold, silver and treasures here into her own pocket and not let anyone else use them.
But right now, it’s not working.
"How to use it in the past, it's up to you, butler."
Lu Yun responded lazily, but did not notice the butler's mouth twitching.
Can the money spent in the Wei family be compared with that in the General's Mansion?
Wasn't it because he wasn't sure about the measurement that he came to ask Lu Yun?
Unexpectedly, Lu Yun just became a hands-off boss and threw the problem back to him.
How did he answer this?
Seeing Lu Yun's attitude towards the room full of gold and silver, the housekeeper couldn't help but look down on her. He knew that even if he asked her, he would not get any information. She was even more puzzled as to why the second young master gave her the power of housekeeper.
I sighed and had to try to figure it out myself.
"Oh, by the way, we can just do our best to repair the other courtyards, but as for Madam's courtyard... there's no need to do that."
Lu Yun seemed to remember something and turned to remind the butler.
But his face looked indifferent and his tone was disdainful.
The housekeeper was startled.
Although he was loyal to Zhou, he had to at least be nice to his wife.
The yard where Jiang Mingwei lives is big, so it should be renovated to avoid any flaws.
A housewarming party is going to be held in a few days. If people find out that the house is all show and no substance, then the general's mansion will be disgraced!
What's more, Jiang Mingwei lives in the main courtyard, so the possibility of being noticed is even greater.
"Miss Lu, this is not a good idea, right? The courtyard where Madam lives is quite large. If a guest finds that it has not been repaired in time, it may cause criticism..."
Unable to explain the matter too clearly, the butler spoke in a roundabout way, hoping that Lu Yun could understand.
But with her limited brain, how could she understand the hidden meaning in the housekeeper's words?
His brows were furrowed and a hint of impatience flashed in his eyes.
"How could a guest see her yard? Okay, housekeeper, you don't have to say anything. This is the lady's own decision!"
"Today I went to discuss this with her, but she refused to see me. Doesn't that mean she just wants to live her own life behind closed doors and not have anything to do with us? If that's the case, why bother trying to please her? Just do as I say!"
After saying that, he turned his head away angrily.
When the housekeeper saw her like this, he realized that communication was impossible.
Forget it, I'd better ask the old lady before making a decision...
So she nodded and agreed to Lu Yun first, but soon Lu Yun asked her again.
"Have you prepared the list of guests for the housewarming party at the General's Mansion? If you have, could you please let me have a look so that I know what to do to prepare for the distinguished guests?"
"Of course I have prepared it, but I don't have it with me at the moment. Can I give it to Miss Lu at noon?"
Lu Yun thought about it, nodded and said, "Then send it to me as soon as possible. I also need to study which guests to come so as not to lose face for the General's Mansion and to satisfy the Second Young Master."
Lu Yun muttered to himself, completely unaware of the worried looks on the housekeeper and Shuang Ji's faces.
If this continues, not only will they not be able to satisfy the Second Young Master, they are really afraid that Lu Yun’s power as housekeeper will be taken away!
But no one would tell the truth to her face, so she could only immerse herself in her own world, unable to extricate herself...
When leaving the warehouse, Lu Yun did not forget to steal two gold bars.
She thought no one noticed, but in fact the housekeeper saw it all and couldn't stop shaking his head and sighing.
I don’t understand what the eldest master sees in this woman?
Although she looks good and has the demeanor of a willow swaying in the wind, once she has some power and starts to act tyrannically, it is difficult to see her previous dependent appearance!
Or maybe he really doesn't understand the young master's aesthetics...
Otherwise, how could he leave such a beautiful lady like his wife alone in her empty room for so many years while he was secretly having an affair with Lu Yun at the border?
Shaking his head, the butler sighed helplessly.
Realizing that he had thought too much, he quickly went to find Zhou and told her everything that had happened in the warehouse today.
Zhou snorted coldly and slammed the teacup in her hand heavily onto the table beside her.
She knew that Lu Yun couldn't manage the household well!
Giving her the power of housekeeper is a waste of talent.
"He is such a useless idiot, he is so petty and can't even put up a decent show! If a guest sees something wrong with this mansion, someone with ulterior motives will spread rumors. Once the rumors get out, this newly renovated general's mansion is in tatters, and who knows what will happen. People will think that he is abusing that bitch Jiang Mingwei!"
"Don't worry about what she said. Just do what you have to do. If Lu Yun asks you about it, let her come to me. I want to know if she really thinks of herself as the master."
The butler kept saying yes.
In the afternoon, he sent the list of guests to be invited to the banquet to Lu Yun, and also conveyed Zhou's attitude to her that Jiang Mingwei's yard must be repaired and added to.
Lu Yun was very dissatisfied, but he did not dare to refute Zhou's order.
In the end, he had no choice but to agree to the housekeeper's request with a forced smile.
"Really? Then everything will be subject to the old lady's arrangements."
After the housekeeper left, she stopped smiling and immediately turned back into the house.
As he spread out the booklet in his hand, his eyes flashed with viciousness and he spoke with great confidence.
"Just wait and see, Jiang Mingwei. I will make you lose face in front of the guests and pay the price!"
