Although Xuemei felt uncomfortable, she didn't forget Lin Jiaojiao's reminder to be cautious before leaving.
Now they weren't staying in Lin Mansion anymore, it was pointless to compete with Nanny Cui.
So she concedes slightly and said, "Nanny Cui, today is the day the Regent King's Consort returns for a visit, and the Consort has asked me to accompany the young ladies to fetch charcoal fire."
Then she stepped forward and handed over, quietly pulling a money bag from her sleeve, smiling, "This is a little token of appreciation from my lady, the Consort, I hope you can accept it."
Nanny Cui's face had already stiffened when she heard about the Regent King's Consort returning, and she had forgotten that now Miss Qian was no ordinary person, so naturally, Xuemei was not someone she, an old kitchen servant, could neglect.
Immediately, she was terrified.
She thought Xuemei was here to settle old scores, but she had actually become so amicable and even bribed her.
