Chapter 581 - 229 Steward (Part 1)_2
Zhuang Ruolan looked at Yueyao and then thought about Ma Linlin, unable to help but sigh that the difference between the two was truly like that between the clouds and the mud!
After thinking for a moment, Yueyao said, "Cousin-in-law, I will talk to Uncle about this matter myself." It seemed inappropriate to have her cousin-in-law speak on her behalf.
Zhuang Ruolan nodded and said, "Cousin-in-law knows your ability. It’s okay not to follow the nurturing nanny and teacher for now. But starting from tomorrow, you must learn stewardship from me." Yueyao was already eleven years old and needed to learn how to manage household affairs.
Yueyao readily agreed.
By coincidence, that same afternoon, Yueyao received a letter from Mingzhu, who complained about the complicated and exhausting duties of the steward.
Ever since the day Mingzhu said she could help manage household duties, Madam Ping had taken the opportunity to have Mingzhu learn stewardship under her. These days, Madam Ping kept Mingzhu by her side to observe her manage household affairs. After about ten days, she began letting Mingzhu handle some minor tasks.
Mingzhu initially only observed, but now having to manage tasks herself, even though they were minor, was still quite troubling. She felt she had trapped herself. If it weren’t for her casual remark, she wouldn’t have to do all these trivial chores.
Yueyao replied to Mingzhu with a smile.
