: Inner House Steward

Bai Zhenzhen went in and said, "Steward Qin, we are here on the order of the old lady."

Butler Qin smiled slyly: "The Duke also knows that the old lady is used to worrying, so he told me before going to court this morning to ask me to pay my respects to the old lady and ask her to be at ease.

Since Aunt Bai is here, please go back and tell the old lady that I will not disturb her."

Bai Zhenzhen was speechless and could only nod her head and said to everyone: "Then let's go back first."

"Wait a minute." Xia An'an shouted, "Aunt Bai just needs to go back and resume her life, and the others will stay."

The Duke of Guo said that even though many of those in charge were confidants trained by the old lady, they did not dare not to stay.

Bai Zhenzhen went back alone.

Xia Anan looked at the people with different expressions in the room and said, "I just got married. Everyone here today has been in the house longer than me. I will have to trouble you all in the future."

The stewards spoke politely in small groups.

Xia An'an: "Let's get started. What happened to my grandmother and mother before? Come back to me today. Don't delay everyone's business."

The housekeeper who came to check the cards and account books was the first to say: "Fifth Grandma, next month is the old lady's birthday. Now that the big kitchen in the house has been abolished, what should we do for this birthday party?"

Xia Anan: "How do you call me?"

The housekeeper said: "My surname is Lu."

"Manager Lu?"

Manager Lu raised his head slightly: "Yes! I have been the housekeeper for ten years. I have to take care of all the big and small matters in the house."

"Really?" Xia Anan asked her, "Do you also take care of the kitchen?"

Manager Lu: "Of course!"

Xia Anan: "What about personnel arrangements and character inspection? Can you take care of that?"

Manager Lu: "The old lady and my wife are both distinguished people, how can I deal with those mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law? Of course I have to go. The old lady and my wife quite trust me."

Xia Anan nodded: "Then, from now on, you should stop what you are doing and let Mother Bai take over for you temporarily."

Manager Lu's face changed: "What! Fifth Grandma! Even if you drive away a dog, you still need a reason! I have worked hard in this house all my life, why do you drive me away just because you say you want to?"

Xia Anan: "Why? Just because you are the chief steward of the inner courtyard! First it was Wakoyuan, and then my mother was poisoned. As the chief steward, you have no responsibility at all? The first thing I will ask you is, no matter which house or house you go to

It’s appropriate to go and say it, right?”

Manager Lu's expression changed: "What does the poisoning have to do with me?!"

"What does it have to do with it?" Xia Anan said in a cold voice, "Then let me tell you what does it have to do with it. First, you said you were in charge of human affairs. This person who got in from nowhere poisoned my mother. Are you?

How do you select people? How do you test their character? You said you were in charge of the kitchen, so how did the poisoner avoid so many pairs of eyes in the kitchen and put the poison into my mother's bowl? There must be one of them.

Protector! At worst, you are derelict in your duties, but at worst, you may not be an accomplice!"

Manager Lu: "How could I be an accomplice? I don't know the details of this matter at all!"

"Based on your excuses, you are not worthy of being the housekeeper of our Dingguo Palace!" Xia An'an waved her hand: "Take her off and hand her over to the Fifth Master when he comes back!"
