Huang Dong came over to take away the clothes that needed to be washed, and Lu Qing stopped her.

"You have finished your exams now, so you can go and do the work of recruiting workers for our family. We need one person at the mansion, and two people here. You can choose from these three. I will let Dahai choose Mr. Fu's driver, and the kitchen needs a noodle chef, so let Lao Fan choose this one."

Huang Dong wondered, "Should we ask the wife at the mansion?"

"My wife doesn't really care about these things nowadays. There's basically no difference between having a housekeeper and not having one. Aunt Wang is not in good health and goes back to her hometown to recuperate every few days. When I talked to my wife about recruiting, do you know what she said? Let's hurry up and do our own thing. We can't rely on Aunt Wang. I guess Aunt Wang will retire soon."

Huang Dong said, "I have never recruited anyone before, and I don't know anything about interviews."

Lu Qing smiled and said, "If you can't do it well, can you still do it badly? Just go for it. If you are unsure, just ask me. If it is really not suitable, we can fire him and recruit someone else. You have to be able to stand on your own in the future. Work hard on yourself. Don't be afraid of anything and improve your abilities."

"Okay, I understand. I will do it well."

"There is one more thing. I don't like Zhang Mingming from the mansion and I am planning to fire her. Do you have anything to say? For example, has she done anything wrong? I can find a reason to fire her."

Huang Dong and Zhang Mingming got along quite well and had been working together in the Fu family for several years. He was a little surprised to hear Lu Qing say this.

But Huang Dong has 100% trust in Lu Qing. If he wants to fire Zhang Mingming, then there must be something wrong with Zhang Mingming.

"Sister, if you hadn't asked me, I would have forgotten. A few days ago, Anan from the mansion told me that Zhang Mingming seemed to be secretly filming the mansion. Some things were filmed in great detail, and he always took pictures when no one was around."

"When you first came to work, weren't you told not to take photos or videos?"

"Yes, it's made very clear that if you want to video chat with your family, you can only do so in your own room."

"Well, that's strange. There's no point in her taking that photo, right? Our family isn't some celebrity family that has fanatical fans and a curiosity mentality."

Huang Dong joked, "It's actually okay to just take photos, but I'm afraid that one day she will get crazy about getting rich and start live streaming at home, which will be troublesome."

Lu Qing felt vaguely as if she had grasped something, but it flashed by again.

"Go and do your work first. Don't forget to do what you asked. Don't tell Zhang Mingming."

Huang Dong agreed to do the laundry.

"What is she trying to do by taking pictures of Fu's family's furnishings?" Lu Qing still couldn't figure it out.

Similar things have happened in Hong Kong before, where internal staff knew the layout and furnishings of a home very well and took photos to send to criminals for kidnapping and extortion.

But what era is it now? The public security in the mainland is different from that in Hong Kong.

Lu Qing didn't think Zhang Mingming was so bold as to commit a crime.

Huang Ying walked in holding a bunch of pink roses. "Madam, our gardener went to help a fellow villager with the opening of his flower shop today. He brought back a lot of flowers and gave some to each room. I like this delicate pink color."

Lu Qing looked at the roses, which were so beautiful that they made her look so pretty. "At your age, you'll look good in pink, light yellow, or light blue."

"Well, a few days ago I wanted to buy a pink dress like Zhang Mingming from the big house, but she said I couldn't afford it and didn't deserve to wear it. Only people like you and the Second Young Madam can afford it! My sister stopped me, and I didn't want to argue with her. Her salary is about the same as mine, so if she can afford it, I can't?"

Lu Qing stroked the petals, "Second Young Madam? Why are you mentioning the Second Young Madam out of nowhere?"

"Nothing, it's just that Zhang Mingming met her recently, and came back saying that the Second Young Madam was a nice person, but unfortunately..." Huang Ying suddenly realized that she couldn't say this in front of Lu Qing.

Lu Qing smiled and said, "Nothing. But it's better not to talk about the master behind his back!"

"Yes, I understand."

Fu Yanheng came back from his father's place and called Lu Qing, "I see the kitchen is starting to set up the table, you should wash your hands and go over."

"Well, have the clothes been delivered?"

"It was delivered, and Dad said it was very comfortable to touch. Mom just came back from playing mahjong, and she also said the material was good, and that it would be nice to have sheets made of this material."

Lu Qing said, "Why not? It's just expensive. The Egyptian cotton we use at home is all high-weave, which means it's good. Since mom said so, I'll send a few sets of bedding over someday."

"Mom didn't mean what she said, so you don't have to take it seriously. It's so tiring!"

"I think my mother has really changed her attitude towards me recently. As time goes by, people's true colors will be revealed. As long as I can do it, I am willing to make her happy. Yuanji and his wife are away, and Junlin is going to study abroad soon. We have to understand her feelings."

Fu Yanheng nodded in agreement and sighed.

"What's wrong? Do you miss your mother?" Lu Qing was referring to Dong Ruoqing.

"We video chat every day, but I don't miss her that much. I didn't grow up with her either. I always felt it was a pity before we recognized each other, but after we recognized each other, I don't think about her much. Sometimes I still recall how good my mother was to me since I was a child. I really envy those families with simple family relationships, unlike ours, which is so complicated. One mother is at home, but she is not my biological mother, and one biological mother is abroad. My grandmother is in the temple all year round, and my brother and sister-in-law are still thinking about harming my wife every day. It's really boring just to think about it!"

Lu Qing went over and put her arms around his waist. "Every family has its own problems. If you think someone is happy, it's because you don't know him well enough."

"What is true happiness then?"

"True happiness is inner peace. This is my personal opinion. Whether you are rich or poor, healthy or sick, in good times or bad times, you can remain calm."

Fu Yanheng thought for a moment, "Do you mean to be like Su Dongpo, who lived his life in a raincoat and raincoat?"

"I don't know Su Dongpo, so I don't know whether he finally reached this state, but he must have been trying hard to find it."

Fu Yanheng closed his eyes and wondered what it felt like to feel inner peace.

Lu Qing looked at him. They were the closest or most distant couples. Many couples were like one when things were going well, but were ruthless to each other when they fell out. Where would her marriage go?

"Seriously, Lening hasn't seen her grandmother yet. Should we take the baby with us? Or what?"

"No! When you gave birth to Lening, Dad asked grandma about bringing her back to liven things up. But grandma said that the child was too young and had clean eyes, and she was someone who had been with gods and Buddhas all year round, so it was not appropriate for her to see him."

"It's great to have faith. You don't need to use your brain to figure out how to do things. You just need to follow the scriptures."

Before Lu Qing could finish her words, Zhang Mingming came over with a tray.
