Chapter 857: Returning to Her Original Form

Editor: Henyee Translations

The sudden sound stunned the two of them. The maidservant standing behind Madam Dai frowned and bowed for instructions. “Madam, can you let me go out and deal with it?”

Madam Dai looked at Gu Yundong. “What are your plans?”

“Auntie, you can make the decision. If I go, I’m afraid she won’t be convinced.”

Madam Dai nodded and instructed the maidservant behind her, Yu Zhu, “Go ahead and let her understand what she did wrong.”

“Yes.”

Yu Zhu nodded at the two of them and opened the door of the room. She looked at Xiao Yi, who was kneeling outside the door.

This room was specially spared by Gu Yundong. It was in a corner beside the kitchen warehouse and was used as an office. It was quite far from the room where the other guests were and was not easy to see.

Therefore, Xiao Yi’s commotion did not disturb the other guests.

Seeing Yu Zhu, Xiao Yi hurriedly knelt down and took a few steps forward. “Sister Yu Zhu, please help me plead with Madam. I was wrong. I was really wrong.”

Yu Zhu looked down at her. “What did you do wrong?”

“I-I didn’t know Boss Gu’s identity. I was disrespectful to Boss Gu. I deserve to die. I…”

Yu Zhu shook her head in disappointment. She still did not know what was wrong.

“Even if Boss Gu didn’t reveal her identity, she’s still a guest. There’s no reason for New Tea Pavilion to chase guests out.”

Xiao Yi felt wronged and cried uncontrollably. “Yes, I was too anxious. I just heard the two young masters say that they wanted to stay here until closing time. They also wanted to tour all the rooms here, so I thought wrongly.”

“Were you thinking in the wrong direction?” Yu Zhu sneered. “When New Tea Pavilion first opened, many people had the same idea. They wanted to see the other rooms in the backyard, but how did Madam and Miss Nie deal with them? Have you forgotten?”

Xiao Yi’s face turned pale.

Yu Zhu said, “Madam has repeatedly reminded you that if you encounter a guest with such a request, you have to tactfully explain to the other party that this is not in line with the rules. If you encounter someone who is pestering you endlessly, you have to forcefully carry them out. But what about you? Not to mention that Boss Gu did not make a request in front of you, even if she did, the first thing you should do is not to chase the guest away.”

Xiao Yi was completely speechless. She was just… just thinking that she was with Madam Dai. Such a small matter…

Yu Zhu sighed in her heart and shook her head. “You don’t have to stay in New Tea Pavilion in the future. Go pack up and return to the Dai Residence in a while.”

Xiao Yi suddenly raised her head and immediately kowtowed on the ground to beg for mercy. “No, Sister Yu Zhu, I was wrong. Madam, Boss Gu, I was wrong. Please don’t chase me away.”

How many people wanted to come to New Tea Pavilion but could not? Madam had once said that if they could do it well in New Tea Pavilion, in the future, when the shop opened elsewhere, old people like them could be promoted as shopkeepers. At that time, they would be much better than the maidservants and grannies in the residence.

If there was someone with outstanding ability, Madam would even strip them of their slave status and live a glorious life. This was a job that many people would envy.

Xiao Yi knew that even Yu Zhu, who was in front of her, was tempted.

Now, she had finally reached this step with great difficulty, yet she was going to be beaten back to her original state?

‘No, that’s not right. It’s worse than the original.’

She had already been abandoned by Madam. Even if she returned to the Dai Residence, it was impossible for her to do the same job as before. She would probably be exiled to the manor and die of old age there.

Xiao Yi cried bitterly, but Yu Zhu frowned. She found two old women from the kitchen who had come out to watch the show and quickly pulled her down.
