Mo Yan was extremely busy, so busy that her feet barely touched the ground, because they only had three days left and had to do their best to prepare.
On the third day, just as they were about to have a hearty meal and head to the city tower, someone suddenly came to tell Mo Yan that Kang Tinglan had run away.
"How did she get out? Don't tell me the woodshed door was left unlocked?"
Mo Yan's face darkened. She had clearly told her not to give her any food, yet she still had the strength to run out. How could it be such a coincidence?
"It was Lin Ma, who served the old lady. She felt very sorry for Miss and eventually released her."
The butler quickly spoke up, saying that it wasn't that they wanted to release Miss Lin, but that Lin Ma was the old lady's person, and how could they possibly control Lin Ma?
“Didn’t I say that no one is allowed to see her? Did you not understand, or is someone just paying lip service? Bring them all up here.”
"yes!"
The butler immediately had the two brought over. They had just gone out when they were discovered, and the butler brought them over directly.
Honestly, no one in the entire manor likes this young lady. When they asked the old lady and the others to leave, they didn't think about what would happen to the ordinary people. Who is that Prince An? He's a prince from an enemy country. How can we trust what he says?
Kang Tinglan and Lin Ma were brought up directly. The moment Lin Ma saw Mo Yan, she immediately came over.
"Madam, you must stand up for this old servant and Miss! They really aren't giving Miss anything to eat. What will happen to Miss if she goes hungry?"
Lin Ma always felt that the old lady's affection for Miss was just for show, but it was really too much for those servants to actually hurt Miss.
Lin Ma acted as if everyone was wrong, speaking with such self-righteousness.
Mo Yan held her cane, looking at them coldly. "So you mean, in this house, I don't have the final say, but you do?"
Mo Yan's voice was cold, which made Lin's mother a little flustered. When she looked up, she found that there was no warmth in Mo Yan's eyes. She looked at them as if they were two insignificant people, no, even more indifferent.
Suddenly, she instinctively shivered. Could it be that she... had guessed wrong?
"How could that be? Of course, the old lady has the final say in this family." She was still somewhat clear-headed and knew what she should and shouldn't say. She was very clear about one thing: this family belonged to the Kang family, so naturally the old lady had the final say, and she was just a servant.
"Oh, I thought you were in charge. I said you're not allowed to give her any, and that's final. I can't afford to use someone who doesn't listen to me. You can leave now, and don't ever say you're one of my people again."
Mo Yan was too lazy to argue with her. Some people are like that; they always think that because they have seniority, they can guess what their master is thinking at will, while others will think that she is the master's confidante and must be right.
"Madam, please don't!" Servants like them would have nowhere to go if their masters didn't want them, especially since war was about to break out. If she stayed, wouldn't that be...
“Grandmother, you can’t do this. Lin Ma has been with you for years and is already family. How can you just kick her out like that?”
Kang Tinglan, who was standing to the side, finally couldn't hold back any longer and immediately spoke up for Lin's mother.
"Oh my, our Miss Kang Tinglan is so kind-hearted. Since you want to be family with the servants, I will grant your wish. From now on, you will be a servant. Start working today and do your job well!"
I'm the one in charge in this house. Anyone who listens to others can get out of here. Get her out of here. We're at a critical juncture, so don't cause trouble, or I won't hesitate to teach her a lesson.
"Take her away and get her to work right now. Today she'll wash the dishes. We're about to eat, and after that, we'll go to the city wall and join them in guarding the border!"
