Mother Zhang was overjoyed. She stepped forward and hugged Zhang Yan, saying, "My dear, you finally figured it out. Don't worry, I will help you. I will definitely help you!"
"Mom, please arrange for me to be with Lan Ziye. Only by staying with her will I have a chance!" Zhang Yan said.
"Well, Mom knows!" Aunt Zhang pondered, "But your salary must still come from the Chu family, so that you can attack and defend..." Having said this, Aunt Zhang happily sat down next to Zhang Yan and said excitedly, "Let me tell you, Lan Ziye is really useless. The housekeeper saw that she, the eldest daughter of the Lan family, was driven to this deserted villa and took pity on her, so he arranged some servants for her. Do you know what Miss Lan said? She actually said that there were too many servants and she needed to streamline them. She reduced the ten maids who did chores to three!"
"Is there such a thing?" Zhang Yan said in surprise.
"Yes, I told her not to worry about the wages, but she insisted that she paid the servants herself. Tsk tsk tsk, she's just trying to show off, but she doesn't have the ability to do it!" Aunt Zhang said with disdain.
"The Lan family is also one of the five major families. The eldest daughter of the Lan family shouldn't be so petty, right?" Zhang Yan also looked disdainful.
"If Miss Lan were a real lady of the Lan family, she wouldn't be like this. What a pity!" Aunt Zhang sighed. "More than half of the ten servants have been eliminated. I've been complaining about them for a long time. Those who left complained, and those who stayed complained too!"
At this point, Aunt Zhang shook her head and continued with a look of regret, "If it weren't for this unpresentable eldest daughter of the Lan family, those who left wouldn't have lost their jobs, and those who stayed wouldn't have had such a hard time. Such a big villa, and only three people are cleaning it? Oh my God, I've been working in the Chu family for so many years, and I've never encountered such a thing!"
"Mom, why don't you think she wants the Chu family to pay?" Zhang Yan asked cautiously.
"You're not favored!" Aunt Zhang said proudly, "You've been banished to the cold palace, and you still dare to use the Chu family's money?"
Zhang Yan thought about it and felt that what Zhang Ma said made some sense, but...
She said worriedly, "Of course I'm happy that Lan Ziye is out of favor. Only when she's out of favor will I have a chance. But if she's kicked out of the Chu family, things will be very difficult!"
"So we have to make two preparations. First, you have to get your salary from the Chu family. That way, even if Lan Ziye is kicked out, you can still stay in the Chu family. As for the next fiancée...it will all depend on your own abilities! In addition, you have to do your best to help Lan Ziye stay. After all, Lan Ziye is just an ordinary person, not worthy of the upper class. Compared to those real young ladies, she should be much easier to deal with!" Aunt Zhang analyzed shrewdly, "Besides, since she is not presentable, even if you become a concubine in the future, you can still accompany the eldest master to various occasions and become the recognized Mrs. Chu, right?"
Zhang Yan smiled confidently.
When Lan Ziye woke up, the sun had already set. If she hadn't been so hungry, she felt that she would not have woken up even if the sun had disappeared.
But...what did Aunt Zhang say her personal maid was called?
Forget it, she decided to go out and find something to eat.
Lan Ziye got up, washed up briefly, opened the door, and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face. The woman was walking towards him with a tray.
Lan Ziye looked confused.
