Chapter 801: Old Master Zhou, Please Give Him to Me


    Editor: Henyee Trantions


    Mrs. Zhou instantly came back to her senses and temporarily put aside the matter of the Gu family. She asked in surprise, “The young master of the Prefecture Magistrate Dai’s family? When did we have a rtionship with the Dai family?”


    The servant shook his head. “I don’t know. Master seems to be quite puzzled too.”


    Mrs. Zhou thought for a moment. “Go to the front yard and wait. Listen to what’s going on. I hope he’s not here for trouble…”


    She said thest sentence in an extremely low voice. As she finished speaking, she began to feel uneasy.


    The servant hurriedly ran out. At this moment, Zhou Dafu was also feeling uneasy. After asking Dai Wenhuo to take a seat, he asked tentatively, “May I know why Young Master Dai is here today?”


    “There’s nothing special. I just want to ask if Old Master Zhou can give me two servants,” Dai Wenhuo said with a smile.


    Zhou Dafu heaved a sigh of relief and asked curiously, “Who is Young Master Dai talking about?”


    Dai Wenhuo took out two wooden carvings and said, “When I went on the streets today, I saw a woman holding a wooden carving. I liked it very much and wanted to buy a few more from her. Unexpectedly, the woman said that she was a servant of the Zhou Mansion. This wooden carving was carved by her husband, so she couldn’t sell it to me.”


    Zhou Dafu was surprised. There was a servant in his residence who knew how to sculpt? He did not know that.


    He picked up the wooden carving that Dai Wenhuo had ced on the table and took a closer look. It was indeed quite exquisite, but there was still a gap between it and the works of those real old craftsmen.<div>


    It was rare for Dai Wenhuo to like it.


    However, Dai Wenhuo did not seem to see the doubt in his eyes. He sighed faintly and said as if he was recalling, “I really like this wooden carving. I’m not afraid of Old Master Zhouughing at me. I learned it myself when I was young, but I wasn’t good at it, so I put it down. Now that I see this wooden carving, I actually think of those things when I was young. I suddenly feel a little emotional, so I want to pick it up again and learn it. I can kill time in my spare time. Coincidentally, I met this sculptor who suits me, so on impulse, I came to ask Old Master Zhou to give them to me.”


    Zhou Dafu was stunned. So that was the case.


    His mind began to work quickly. He had no interaction with Dai Wenhuo at all. Usually, it was harder than ascending to the heavens to climb up the Dai Residence.


    This was a rare opportunity. Dai Wenhuo only wanted two servants. Not to mention the servants that he had no impression of and were worthless, he would not have any objections even if Dai Wenhuo wanted the servant beside him.


    Moreover, using these two servants to establish a rtionship with Dai Wenhuo would be very beneficial to him in the future.


    Seeing that he was silent, Dai Wenhuo smiled and said, “Of course, it’s fine if Old Master Zhou can’t bear to part with them. I’m just saying.”


    Zhou Dafu was shocked and hurriedly said with a smile, “Young Master Dai, you must be joking. They’re just two servants. How can I be reluctant to let them go? I’m a boor and don’t understand these elegant things. This sculptor will be wasting his talent if he’s with me. Only by following Young Master Dai will he have a chance to be useful. I can’t ask for more.”


    Dai Wenhuo had alreadye personally. If he didn’t give the servants to him, he would be ungrateful.


    “Old Master Zhou is indeed a reasonable person.” Dai Wenhuo took out 50 taels of silver from his sleeve and slowly pushed it over the table. “This is the silver to buy them. I hope Old Master Zhou will ept it.”
