Chapter 234 Dirty
Liu Quan asked, "What's the matter? I'll follow your instructions, sir."
He Shen said, "Send someone to find a few strong and healthy old women to wait for the job, the sooner the better."
Liu Quan said, "I'll do it right away."
Heshen said he was going home.
……
The official was counting the treasures, and when he was done he said, "Seal the box."
The two officers immediately covered the box.
Someone sat by and took notes.
There was also a fat official next to him who was responsible for counting.
An officer came over with the treasure.
The fat official took a look and said, "Five strings of top-quality imperial beads."
The recorder wrote down the notes.
More officers and soldiers brought treasures.
The fat official took a look and said, "Fourteen strings of fine imperial beads."
The recorder continued to write.
Another officer and soldier brought an ancient painting.
The fat official took a look and said, "It's an ancient painting of Along the River During the Qingming Festival."
The recorder was busy recording.
The officers and soldiers carried box after box of things and went out the door.
At this moment, Mo Li and an official came over. The official made a gesture of invitation and said, "Master Mo, please."
The two came before the recorder and the counting official.
The official who had spoken earlier said, "This is the Emperor's Grand Secretary, Lord Mo."
The recorder picked up the account book, stood up and said, "Hey, Mr. Mo, hello, please take a look."
Mo Li hummed.
The official next to him introduced him, "This is Mr. Wang, the governor's advisor. He's in charge of registering and compiling records."
Mo Li smiled and nodded, then said to Master Wang, "Please sit down."
Master Wang didn't dare to sit down.
Mo Li continued, "Judging from your accent, you're from the north. How many years have you been with Governor Chen?"
Master Wang said, "Your Excellency, it has been less than half a year."
Mo Li uttered an "oh" and pondered it carefully. He felt something was amiss and said, "A northerner dares to come to Zhejiang to steal jobs. You're quite capable."
Mr. Wang laughed dryly and said, "Your Excellency is too kind. I am only in charge of finances and grain, and was temporarily transferred here to take care of the accounts. I am just being meticulous."
Mo Li nodded and said, "Okay, just be careful. Remember every detail and every item, and don't make any mistakes."
Master Wang repeatedly said yes and said, "I will keep this in mind."
Mo Li had just turned and taken two steps when he remembered something. He turned back and said, "Oh, right, these accounts and items must match one to one. Nothing can be missed. The Emperor will investigate. If something goes wrong, be careful."
Upon hearing this, Master Wang was startled, looked uncomfortable, and sat down.
……
Four aunts stood in a row, waiting to be ordered.
He Shen walked back and forth, and said with a smile: "Haha, it's rare to find such talented people like you."
Suddenly he became serious, "Listen to me carefully."
The four aunts all trembled.
He Shen continued seriously, "I asked you to come here to take care of Miss Su Qinglian. She is at Mo Li's house now. My housekeeper Liu Quan will take you there later."
He swallowed and continued, "Listen carefully, you must eat and drink well, and treat Miss Su with tenderness and kindness. If she hits her head against the wall, you will use your bellies to block it. If she jumps into the well, you will use your bodies to block it. If she hangs herself, you will use your shoulders to carry her. If she goes on a hunger strike, you will persevere and spare no effort, and you must gently and softly pry open her little mouth and feed me mouthful by mouthful. If she loses even a pound of flesh, I will starve you for three days. If she has any accident, I will find some thick ropes to hang you up and find some wide wells to stuff you in. Do you understand?"
The four aunts said in unison: "I heard it."
……
Led by Liu Quan, the four aunts came to the Mo Mansion.
Mo Li's housekeeper immediately went to inform him.
Mo Li arrived at the door and saw four aunts. He asked in confusion, "Liu Quan, what does your master mean by this?"
Liu Quan said, "Master Mo, our master said that Miss Su has no one to take care of her. He is afraid that she will be depressed, so he asked me to bring these four aunts to take care of Miss Su's food and daily life."
Mo Li smiled and said, "It's rare for your master to be so thoughtful. Okay, I'll accept these four aunts."
Liu Quan thought to himself, "Our master said you are extremely shameless and it seems that this is true. You even don't let go of the old maids."
In fact, Liu Quan thought too much of Mo Li. How could Mo Li be such a person?
