After traveling through time, I was spotted by the new emperor

Chapter 243 I Want to Open a Mansion

聂府

During the evening rest, Chu Yuhua asked Nie Youren about Ye Wuwei.

"Is Commander Ye engaged?"

Nie Youren had a few drinks in the evening and was planning to go to bed, but when he heard these words, any hint of alcohol in him was immediately scared away.

"Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

"Mrs. He wants to tell Commander Ye about her sister."

Nie Youren thought for a moment:

"From now on, no matter who asks you about Ye Wuwei's marriage, you must refuse them. And you must not try to be a matchmaker."

"why?"

"Don't ask why, just do as I say."

Chu Yuhua pinched the flesh on Nie Youren's waist and twisted it hard: "Are you getting bolder?"

Nie Youren endured the pain and said, "I really can't say it."

Seeing Nie Youren like this, Chu Yuhua began to think.

Nie Youren quickly pretended to be asleep, fearing that Chu Yuhua would chase him and ask more questions.

……

In the following days, officials from the residential area in the west of the city held a housewarming banquet.

Except for Nie Youren's family, Ye Wuwei only gave gifts to other families and did not visit them in person.

After all the other families moved in, only Ye Wuwei's house was left empty, and Ye Wuwei began to think about it.

On this day, Ye Wuwei said to Qi Wushuang: "I want to open the mansion."

Qi Wushuang's first reaction was: "You don't live with me?"

"No.

But Qi Wu, Wang Youcai and others have opened their own houses, so it’s not a big deal if my house is empty.”

"Qi Wu is planning a marriage, so of course he needs to set up a residence. Wang Youcai brought his family to Chamdo, so of course he needs to set up a residence as well. You don't have any family, so are you still planning a marriage?"

Qi Wushuang didn't know Wang Youcai before, but since Ye Wuwei transferred Wang Youcai to his side, Qi Wushuang has investigated Wang Youcai thoroughly.

Ye Wuwei glanced at Qi Wushuang and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Seeing that Ye Wuwei had no such intention, Qi Wushuang asked, "Then how do you plan to open your mansion?"

"I haven't figured it out yet, why don't you think about it for me?"

"You tell me first."

"I won't get married, and I don't have any other relatives living with me. I only go back occasionally, so I need to find someone I can trust to take care of the mansion for me.

I trust both Ye Lingling and Xiaohe, but I don’t know if Ye Lingling will return to the Ye Mansion?

If Xiao He is alone, I wonder if she would be willing to live in the mansion and help me manage it?"

Qi Wushuang thought for a moment:

“Since we are going to open a mansion, we need to have servants such as a doorman, cleaners, and kitchen staff. Even if Xiao He moves in, she won’t be alone.

But, can she control the servants?"

In Qi Wushuang's memory, Xiaohe was a person who dared not speak loudly or look directly at others.

"She is very different from before. Now she helps Ye Lingling manage the Binli store and can also establish some authority.

With Ye Lingling's help, she can slowly stand up again."

Qi Wushuang was still a little worried: "How about I ask the housekeeper to keep an eye on you?"

"It's better not to bother the butler. He's already overwhelmed by the huge workload at the palace."

"Then let the butler choose someone for you?"

Ye Wuwei thought for a moment and said, "Let me ask Ye Lingling and Xiaohe for their opinions first."

After saying this, Ye Wuwei complained:

"Before, I just wanted a house, but after I actually had it, it became a problem."

Qi Wushuang didn't dare to tell the truth:

Isn’t it because Ye Wuwei was worried that he would have a place to go if he had a conflict with him!

In fact, when it comes to a sense of security, Qi Wushuang is more worried that Ye Wuwei doesn't want him.

Qi Wushuang was afraid that one day he would make Ye Wuwei angry and Ye Wuwei would just leave.

……

Ye Wuwei is a man of action. Since he decided to set up a government, he went to find Ye Lingling and Xiaohe the next day.

Ye Wuwei first asked the two: "Lingling, are you planning to return to the Ye Mansion?"

Ye Lingling didn't understand why Ye Wuwei suddenly asked her this question, but she still answered:

"Brother Ye, I have no plans to return to the Ye Mansion. I plan to recruit a live-in son-in-law to start my own business."

"Xiao He, what about you? What are your plans?"

Xiao He glanced at Ye Lingling and said, "I will live with Lingling from now on."

"You don't plan to get married?"

"I don't want to get married. From now on, Lingling's children will be my children."

Ye Wuwei thought of Xiaohe's experience and could understand Xiaohe's choice.

"Xiao He, if you don't plan to get married for the time being, can you be my housekeeper?"

"I wonder what Brother Ye means by housekeeper?"

“I want to open a residence in the house in the west of the city, but I rarely go back home during the weekdays, not even at night to rest, so I want to find someone to manage all the affairs in the house for me.

It also includes various social engagements and interpersonal relationships.”

"Is Brother Ye not going back because he is too busy with official business?"

"almost."

Xiao He didn't say a word.

Ye Lingling glanced at Xiao He, and after a moment's consideration, she said:

"Brother Ye, it's no problem for us to manage your household for the time being, but you will get married sooner or later, and I'm afraid your new wife won't like our presence."

Ye Wuwei suddenly understood:

He knew that he would never be able to get married in his lifetime, but others did not think so.

For example, Ye Lingling and Xiao He believed that he would marry a wife.

"Lingling, Xiaohe, there's something I haven't told you.

I will never get married in my lifetime, so I want you to be my housekeeper."

"You will never marry in your life?"

Ye Lingling and Xiao He asked this question in surprise almost at the same time.

"Yes, just treat me as a bachelor. I will never marry or have children in this life.

So there will never be a mistress in my mansion."

Ye Lingling and Xiaohe looked at each other.

After a while, Ye Lingling asked, "Brother Ye, are you sure you're not joking?"

"Have I ever told you a lie?"

That has never happened!

"But, Brother Ye, why do you have the idea of ​​not getting married?"

"It's hard to explain this in a few words. Maybe you will know it later, but I can't tell you now."

"Brother Ye, please let us discuss this."

"Okay, I'll wait for your news."
