Chapter 1242 - Let Him Go To The Inner Courtyard Mesmerizing (1/2)

As for Gray Wolf…

Her gaze looked towards the original direction she had come from, her lips twitched upwards into a smile, but yet not smiling. Dare ask her to clean the toilet? Gray Wolf’s guts have gotten bigger.

The old man was relieved when he saw her return to the outer courtyard.

“You scared me to death, fortunately you are fine.” The old man patted his chest and said: “Why did the Chief Guard call you in? Did anything happen?”

“Nothing happened. He was punished by My Lord to brush the commde and he wanted me to do it for him.” She smiled and asked: “Uncle, what do you do usually?

“You are new here, so you can only do some odd ch.o.r.es in the outer courtyard. Let’s go! I will take you to meet the steward.” He motioned for Feng Jiu to follow him.

Steward? Her eyes flickered, and then she followed him.

The steward of the Crown Prince’s residence wouldn’t be an ordinary person. Therefore, she was really looking forward to it, she wanted to see what kind of a person the steward was.

When the old man came to the front courtyard, they saw a young man who was delegating jobs to the servants in the mansion. Yes, the young man looked about twenty five or six years old. He had a n.o.ble air around him like that of an elegant n.o.ble, but the servants in the residence call him steward.

“Steward, this is my nephew, Li Da Niu[1].” The old man stepped forward and introduced Feng Jiu: “Quickly, kneel down to the steward and thank him for giving you a chance.”

“Huh?” Feng Jiu stood there dumbfounded like a country b.u.mpkin and looked at the man.

“What’s with the ‘huh’? I asked you to kneel down in front of the steward!” The old man said.

After hearing this, Feng Jiu shook her head and blinked her clear innocent eyes: “No, I can’t. My father said that I can’t just kneel to anyone. Besides, back in the country we only kneel to the dead. I’ve never kneeled to anyone alive before!”

Upon hearing this, the old man nearly fainted from fright. He stared dryly and raised his hand to pat Feng Jiu’s head: “You country b.u.mpkin!” However, before he had reached Feng Jiu’s head, she dodged out of the way.
