Chapter 658 -658 Mother Fang’s Arrangement
Xiyue’s two requests were not too demanding, so Lord Cheng nodded and turned to look at Officer Wang Changdong in the manor.
Understanding the situation, Wang Changdong thought briefly before saying, “There is indeed a suitable job for her Mother.” He looked at Xiyue and asked, “I’ve heard that your Mother’s cooking isn’t too bad?”
Xiyue was slightly startled and nodded repeatedly.
Her Mother was indeed good at cooking; her father had been a hunter with great skills, and although they were not exceedingly rich, they never lacked food or clothing. They did not have to scrimp and save for their meals, and there was often fish and meat at home. To ensure her father ate well and had the strength to hunt, her Mother really had put a lot of effort into their meals.
Especially when her father went into the mountains, sometimes for a whole day, missing lunch at home, her Mother would have to devise ways to prepare something simple yet delicious for him.
It was only in Righteous Dao Village, where they were impoverished, that Mother Fang had no opportunity to showcase her skills.
Now that the officer had brought it up, Xiyue quickly nodded in agreement.
Wang Changdong then said to Lord Cheng, “Just recently, one of the kitchen maids in the manor fell ill and went home, leaving a vacancy in the kitchen. Since her mother is a good cook, how about we arrange for her to work in the manor as a kitchen maid? Her father’s injury has not yet healed, and the manor is close to their home, so she can take care of him too.”
There really was a need for a kitchen maid in the manor; the previous one was an aunt of Master Lan, and as Master Lan was someone with undisputed authority, the kitchen maid had also become overbearing.
Not only did she boss around others in the kitchen, but she also secretly took food that was meant for the prisoners.
Master Lan turned a blind eye to this since the prisoners dared not object.
However, when Master Lan ran into trouble, the kitchen maid did not even try to hold back and soon enough, someone complained about her.
Wang Changdong and Master Lan were not well-acquainted and had no interactions, but Master Lan had been operating there for many years and held some influence. Although his injury meant he couldn’t actively run things, he still had his connections.
So, he only intended to give the kitchen maid a warning and did not think about dismissing her.
Who knew that Master Lan would suddenly be exposed for corruption and murder and quickly imprisoned and sentenced? Not just him, but several others associated with him were also implicated, and two officers who were close to him were also taken away.
Well, what was Wang Changdong to hold back for? Without a second word, he dismissed the kitchen maid from the manor.
Now that the position was vacant, Wang Changdong had been considering positioning one of his own relatives there, but had yet to decide on a candidate.
Now, it seemed that Mother Fang was benefiting from this.
Seeing the need in the manor, Lord Cheng nodded and agreed.
“Good, starting tomorrow, let your mother come to work in the manor’s kitchen.”
Xiyue was overjoyed and quickly kowtowed to express her thanks, “Thank you, Lord.”
With the teams and Xiyue’s requests addressed, it was only Shu Yu left.

Lord Cheng couldn’t help but turn his head to look at her, “Lady Lu, what kind of reward would you like?”
Unexpectedly, Shu Yu just smiled and shook her head, “I’m quite content now and don’t desire any rewards.”
Hearing this, Lord Cheng frowned.
He had said earlier that it was easier to deal with requests that were made; it was those who asked for nothing whose desires were vast.
He glanced at Qi Chan, smiling and said, “That may be so, but I’ve already made a promise. If you don’t ask, wouldn’t it make me appear untrustworthy?”
Shu Yu, “…”
She silently sighed in her heart, realizing it seemed she couldn’t escape owing that promise.
