Chapter 1017 - 005 Picking a Maid (Second Update)
Dong Mei came in and gave a curtsy before leading in the servants brought by Princess Anle, one by one.
The one in the lead was an old man of around fifty, his face adorned with a smile, his eyes spirited, very astute.
Xia Zheng timely muttered in Lin Yuan’s ear, "Zhou Yang, one of our stewards, is very shrewd but also a genuinely nice person. I’ve never heard of him doing anything wrong. My guess is they probably want him to be the butler."
Indeed, Princess Anle said to Lin Jiaxin with a smile, "This is Butler Zhou Yang. You can let him temporarily manage the household affairs. If he doesn’t suit you, you can replace him later."
The people given by Princess Anle were undoubtedly capable, and Lin Jiaxin had the sense to recognize that, smiling and nodding, "I trust the princess’s judgment."
Princess Anle laughed very happily, "Just as long as you don’t think I’m overstepping."
"How could we?" Lady Liu hurriedly expressed her gratitude, "We’ve just arrived in the Capital city, strangers in a strange land. If not for the princess and Xia Zheng looking out for us, we would be completely lost. In the end, we should be thanking you!"
Her words greatly pleased Princess Anle, her smiling eyes glancing meaningfully at Lin Yuan, "We’re all family now, no need for such talk."
With that look from Princess Anle, Lin Yuan raised her head to look at the sky as if it had absolutely nothing to do with her.
Tian Hui couldn’t help but laugh and suddenly remembered all the support she’d received from Princess Anle originally, feeling somewhat emotional. It truly was a great fortune to have a mother-in-law like Princess Anle.
With Butler Zhou settled, a few more people were introduced to Lady Liu and Lin Jiaxin; these were all chosen by Princess Anle. By Lin Jiaxin’s side stood a young man named Wang Lu, in his twenties, extremely clever.
