Gu Shenwei visited the new overseer again and told hie and leave But he was met with trouble, as Mama Xue could not decide by herself which yard the slaves should work in, especially Gu Shenho belonged to Firewood Yard, where serviceable slaves were beco it very hard to find someone to replace hihtful as Ma In the na Master, she took Slave Huan away

Later, Gu Shenwei moved into a small stone house with his bedroll in the afternoon, next to the Eighth Young Master’s back yard He was to live with a house” Their responsibility was to take care of horses and stables

People in Golden Roc Fort put the prefix “Slave” before the na with Gu Shenwei But everyone called hi all the saenerally called “Slave so-and-so”

Elderly Zhang was considered a working , and earnest As soon as he finished his work, he went directly to bed and never gossiped Gu Shenwei had lived with him for several days, but they had few conversations

Gu Shenas fa Master, people took care of his horses for hi he cared about was if his own horse ate well or not, and if its fur was bright Noas feeding horses for his enemy

Besides, Slave Qian had entered East Castle and was out of Gu Shenwei’s reach What if he unintentionally told others the story about the white handkerchief?

Mama Xue was also a potential threat to hiuan Nu’s yard It was easier for her to oversee him After all, Miss Luo and Mama Xue had discussed too many secrets in front of him

However, Ma his respects every , hewas a slave of Golden Roc Fort, so he did not need to show his loyalty to Miss Luo every uessed that this was the reason that Elderly Zhang never chatted with hi different masters
