After touching two handfuls of Gong Ping's soft hair, she said with a smile.
"Why can't it be done? Look at how you arranged it just now. I heard that this succession ceremony was organized by you. Well, yes, you are a malleable talent."
Gong Ping blushed instantly. He was usually an old and steady young man, but now he looked a little shy like a young man.
"However, I didn't tell you to be the big butler now. You are still young and need experience. Therefore, I hired a good master for you. From now on, you can follow him and learn the skills of this butler. Our family will completely depend on you from now on."
What she faced was definitely not something the Gong family could handle.
Therefore, in the unknown and uncertain future, she may even have to say goodbye to the Gong family again.
But this place has always been her roots.
She will not forget this place, and will also make plans for the Gong family and give the Gong family a more stable future.
Hearing what she said, Gong Ping breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he was still immersed in one surprise after another, and could not come back to his senses for a long time.
"Bai Su, please Ning Liang come in."
Seeing that Gong Ping had figured it out, Lin Mengya felt relieved.
Soon, Ning Liang walked in and saluted.
"I have met you, sir."
"Thanks to Mr. Ning for what happened this time."
In fact, I'm afraid Gong Tu still doesn't know who he lost to.
During this period of time, Gong Tu had already taken control of every aspect of the old house.
In key positions, they were replaced by people they trusted.
But that day in front of the ancestral hall, only a few nurses rushed out.
Moreover, after he left, almost at the same time, all the people he buried were arrested.
As a result, they were kicked out of the house before they could use the harmful tricks they had planned.
The most important hero was the person Long Tianyu arranged for her.
"This is what a young person should do, thank you sir."
They are all on their own, so Lin Mengya won't go around in circles.
"The matter has come to an end. I wonder what Mr. Ning's plans are in the future?"
She asked about Ning Liang's origins.
Yu said that he used to be the manager of a certain family. Although he was capable, he was kicked out because he offended the master's family.
This man was capable and loyal, so he was arranged to come in and lurk beside Gong Tu.
Although the matter was over, she still had a love for talents.
There are a lot of things going on at home, and it’s time to find a capable person to be the housekeeper.
"Young master, I will obey the arrangements of His Highness and Sir."
Ning Liang lowered his head and said solemnly.
Lin Mengya smiled and said softly.
"I have long heard about Mr. Ning's abilities, so I am determined to hire Mr. Ning to be the first butler of our Gong family. I wonder, sir, are you interested?"
Ning Liang raised his head and looked at her in disbelief.
He had just heard the tribesmen mention it to the servants about the Gong family's establishment of a chief steward.
In fact, he agreed with this matter, but he thought that it actually had something to do with him.
But soon, he reacted and said after pretending to cough.
"The young man has no talent or virtue and cannot bear such an important responsibility..."
"The Huang family in Xinzhou declined the year after my husband left. Does your husband know about this?"
Hearing her mention this matter, Ning Liang's brows wrinkled almost invisible, but he said nothing.
"The head of the Huang family only cares about gambling and pleasure all day long. Not only is it not enough to sell off the real estate, but he also wants to pawn the entire ancestral home. If it hadn't been for my husband's hard planning, the Huang family would still have nine years of wealth." Have a good life?"
She valued Ning Liang not because of his talent as a housekeeper.
This man has also made great achievements in business.
The Gong family has many industries, and business is also quite important.
Therefore, if you want to be a great steward, this aspect is indispensable.
It is not easy to manage this family well.
Ning Liang raised his head and looked at her.
"What do you want to say?"
"Ning Liang, the Gong family is different from the Huang family. All your ambitions and ideals can be realized by the Gong family. What I want is not a servile slave. What I want is a man who can take charge of a good home for me. A man of industry.”
She wants to separate the power of the head of the family, and the existence of this big housekeeper is for this purpose.
Of course, the power of the housekeeper is also limited, and he can never replace the head of the family.
So this person's choice is quite important.
Although Ning Liang is capable, he has no ambition for power.
What he asked for was nothing more than stability.
This can be seen from the fact that he has been able to maintain the Huang family for so many years.
Ning Liang couldn't help but feel moved when he heard what she said.
He is a restless person, and he is not suitable for fighting and killing outside.
Instead, he manages things at home and talks about business, which is quite in line with his temperament.
only...
"As the owner, I will sign a contract with you. Even if you no longer serve as the housekeeper in the future, you will still be able to receive the dividends given to you by the Gong family every year. But after this, I hope you can stay in the Gong family forever. , responsible for the assessment and guidance of the next great steward."
Putting reward last is indeed a good strategy.
In this way, Ning Liang's decision was completely settled.
He let out a long sigh and then bowed to her.
"Ning Liang is willing to go through fire and water for your husband to repay your trust."
Lin Mengya also breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Ning Liang agreed.
"I want to thank you, sir. From now on, the Gong family will be entrusted to you, sir."
Ning Liang nodded, but he knew better that apart from the eldest lady, the other five young masters were also very smart and capable people.
Although working under such a person is tiring, the rewards will definitely not be less.
He had been wandering for so many years and finally found a place to stay, but in the end, his long-cherished wish was ended.
"Later, I will ask Fourth Brother to introduce Butler Ning to the clan. The business of the Gong family and the clan have been ruined by Gong Tu and Gong Wu. It may not be easy to recover in a short time. But if you need me to do something with my fourth brother, sir, just ask."
Ning Liang frowned and thought for a moment before speaking.
"Things outside can be slowed down for now, but inside the house, sir and the fourth young master still have to be careful. Although I have touched on a lot of things, Gong Tu didn't completely trust me before, so now, I can't completely rest assured."
Lin Mengya also thought of this.
She waved and called Gong Ping, who had been watching curiously, to Ning Liang.
"This child is the apprentice I found for you. He knows the family affairs better than I do. So, let him assist you."
Gong Ping was smart and immediately saluted his master.
Ning Liang had heard of this child and felt that he had good qualifications and suited his temperament and eyesight, so he accepted his courtesy.
"Okay, with Gong Ping's help, I can do many things twice the result with half the effort. I will immediately send someone to monitor Gong Tu's whereabouts day and night. Also, what do you plan to do with the second lady?"
Lin Mengwu can't die yet.
But she would never let Lin Mengwu have an easy time.
"Let's get cold first. By the way, keep her separate from the confidant woman beside her."
Although Lin Mengwu was ruthless, when it came to means, her mother was even better.
Therefore, as long as they are separated, there is no need to worry about what tricks they can do.
Ning Liang agreed immediately.
"Also, go find someone and spread all the tricks Gong Tu used in the ancestral hall. I don't want him to cause trouble for me in the name of my ancestors."
That is an extremely simple method.
The so-called blood and tears are nothing but the wax of a red candle.
Previously, Gong Tu had privately arranged the solidified red candles in the ancestral hall. When the incense was lit and the temperature rose, they would naturally melt.
Although Gong Tu was expelled from the Gong family by her, he would definitely not give up his desire to come back.
This must not be taken advantage of by him.
Ning Liang had already seen through it, and he knew exactly who arranged it.
This matter is not difficult to handle.
At the same time, he also thought of another thing.
"Sir, I have detained Gong Zhun. Do you want to give him a good trial?"
Speaking of Gong Zhun, she also thought of some abnormalities today.
"You should be thoughtful and give me a good trial. But you can't let the woman next to Gong Wu off lightly. There's just one thing. You can't believe a word she says. You understand what I mean. What?"
Ning Liang understood immediately. It seemed that the young lady's plan was to torture the old lady and just go through the motions to hide her from others.
Lin Mengya gave him a few more instructions and asked him and Gong Ping to go out to do business.
Not long after he left, the people sent by the fourth brother arrived.
"Sir, the fourth young master invites you to come."
At about this time, the fourth brother should be accompanying Ma Beichen and Cheng Su.
I just don’t know what to do with her.
After Bai Su and I dressed up a little more freshly, we followed the man to the front hall.
At this time, they had finished their meal and were chatting in the front hall.
Gong Si heard the servant say that she had arrived, and immediately stood up with a smile to greet her.
"Mr. Excuse me, here you are. Actually, they are two distinguished guests who want to see you."
With his back to those two people, the fourth brother had a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Come to think of it, he had stopped him before, but he didn't.
"Anyway, the two distinguished guests have helped our Gong family a lot today, and it is appropriate for Su Mei to come and express her gratitude."
With Fourth Brother here, he will definitely not suffer the loss.
It's just that these two people are not simple, so she has to deal with them carefully.
"Su Mei, I have met the two young masters."
She saluted generously and faced the scrutiny of the two men, but her expression remained unchanged.
Nonsense, she can handle it calmly even with the older generation who are several times more powerful than them.
What's more, they are not as powerful as those two seniors.
Seeing her elegant and generous behavior, Ma Beichen and Cheng Su had their own thoughts.
At least, what she represents is the head of the Gong family.
