The Xiao family's car had already left for a while, but Pei Yucheng was still standing there with no intention of moving.
Entering the main hall again, the moment Pei Yucheng stepped through the door, his deep black eyes concealed their sharpness and swept straight towards the sofa in the hall.
There is no one there.
Tomorrow is the sacrificial festival. According to the rules passed down by the Pei family, every corner must be covered with family teng diagrams.
The housekeeper of Pei's residence led three groups of servants into the hall and gave orders directly: one group of servants cleaned the place; one group of servants removed the old plants and ornaments and replaced them with new ones; and one group of servants was responsible for the relevant family plots.
"Be quick."
"Every corner must be cleaned thoroughly, not even a speck of dust can be left."
"The Tengtu is in the wrong place. I've stressed this more than three times. The floor-to-ceiling window on the east side faces the main door. Tomorrow, when guests arrive at the Pei residence, the first thing they'll see is this floor-to-ceiling window. The proportions of the Tengtu must be precise. If it leans too far downward, it's not a good sign. Forget it, re-place it."
"You clumsy maid! Are you sure you are the first-class maids who have been carefully selected by the Pei family's internal affairs department?!"
Pei's housekeeper was obviously about to lose his temper.
Just when he was thinking about whether to dismiss the maids in charge of the family's tengtu and ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to assign a new group of smarter ones, the butler of Pei's residence saw Pei Yucheng suddenly walk in from the main gate out of the corner of his eye.
Pei Yucheng stood at the entrance without moving.
The housekeeper of the Pei residence was stunned for a moment, then quickly walked to Pei Yucheng and respectfully handed him a disinfectant towel while asking him, "Master, do you have any instructions?!"
Pei Yucheng's gaze fell on the sofa again.
He pursed his thin lips and finally spoke: "Where are the Second Young Master and Ji Yuqi?!"
The housekeeper of the Pei Residence was slightly stunned. Why was the eldest young master asking about the whereabouts of the second young master and his wife for no reason? However, the housekeeper of the Pei Residence still replied truthfully: "Just now, when I was leading the servants to decorate the hall, I happened to see the second young master and his wife going upstairs. They moved quite quickly."
Pei Yucheng didn't say anything else.
However, the butler of Pei's residence, who was standing beside him and kept a slightly bowed posture of respect, noticed that Pei Yucheng's thin lips seemed to be pursed even tighter.
The lines are a bit cold.
Pei Yucheng handed the disinfectant towel to the Pei residence's housekeeper and originally wanted to go upstairs.
Pei's housekeeper suddenly thought of something and hurriedly called out in a low voice, "Young Master."
"explain."
"It's almost 3:15 pm. According to the ritual rules, you need to open the envelope containing 'Good Luck'."
After being scolded, the maids who were working hard in the hall were so scared that they didn't dare to raise their heads.
But when they heard Pei's housekeeper reminding Pei Yucheng to open the envelope containing "Good Luck Comes", they no longer cared about being afraid, but raised their eyes and looked towards the door.
Good luck comes, which is the benefit that the Pei family gives to their servants.
The Pei family has always been generous.
Even the lowest fifth-class prize is very exciting.
When Pei Yucheng heard the Pei residence’s housekeeper remind him to open the envelope, he did not react much.
Seeing this, the Pei residence's housekeeper quickly added, "This year, the Buddha asked Madam to spin the lucky wheel for 'Good Luck'. The Buddha said, 'Let Madam try her luck.'"
"Bring the envelope to my study." After saying this, Pei Yucheng went straight upstairs.
Upon hearing this, Pei's housekeeper nodded quickly: "Yes!"
