Gu Zhiping turned and walked towards Luoluo. She glared at Luoluo and said fiercely, "I remember clearly what you said just now. Do you dare to repeat it again?"

Luoluo was frightened by Gu Zhiping's ferocity. She looked at Gu Zhiyi with eyes full of help.

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly, she walked to Luoluo, gently held her hand, and gave her strength.

Luoluo felt Gu Zhiyi's warmth. She took a deep breath, looked directly at Gu Zhiping, and said firmly, "I can repeat every word I just said."

Gu Zhiping looked at Luoluo angrily, her heart filled with resentment. She stared at Luoluo and said through gritted teeth: "You...you..."

Gu Zhiyi gently patted Gu Zhiping's shoulder to stop her from talking. She looked at Gu Zhiping and said gently, "Zhiping, Luluo has no ill intentions. She just wants to express her thoughts. You can refuse to accept them, but please don't hurt her."

Gu Zhiping looked at Gu Zhiyi, her heart filled with anger and jealousy. She stared at Gu Zhiyi with tears in her eyes: "Sister, why do you always defend her? Can't you see her true face?"

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly. She patted Gu Zhiping's shoulder gently and said softly, "Zhiping, Luluo did nothing wrong. She just wanted to protect me."

Gu Zhiping looked at Gu Zhiyi, her heart filled with pain and jealousy. She stared at Gu Zhiyi, tears rolling down her cheeks: "Sister, you really disappoint me."

Gu Zhiyi looked at Gu Zhiping, her heart filled with helplessness and guilt. She sighed softly, then patted Gu Zhiping's shoulder gently without saying anything else.

Luluo looked at Gu Zhiyi, her heart filled with gratitude. She looked at Gu Zhiyi with tears in her eyes: "Miss, you are so kind to me."

Gu Zhiyi smiled slightly. She gently patted Luluo's hand and said softly: "Luluo, you are my most loyal maid. I will naturally treat you well."

Luoluo looked at Gu Zhiyi, her heart filled with gratitude and happiness. She looked at Gu Zhiyi with tears in her eyes: "Miss, I will always be by your side, protecting you and guarding you."

……

"How dare you! How dare you talk to the Madam?" Luluo glared at him, her eyes revealing an inviolable majesty. Butler Zhang Fu's face was pale, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead. He knew that his gaffe had angered the Madam's personal maid. He hurriedly lowered his head, his lips trembling, wanting to explain, but he didn't know where to start.

"Miss Luoluo, I...I just did it unintentionally, please forgive me." Zhang Fu's voice trembled slightly, trying to calm Luoluo's anger.

Luoluo looked at him coldly, with a hint of sneer on her lips: "Unintentional? Do you think Madam is so easy to bully? You know, Madam values ​​the reputation and rules of Xie Mansion more than anything else. If I don't teach you a lesson today, I don't know how many people will dare to do evil in the mansion in the future."

Zhang Fu's face turned paler and paler. He knew that Luluo's words were not alarmist. He sighed deeply, raised his head slowly, and looked at Luluo firmly: "Miss Luluo, I am willing to accept any punishment to make up for my mistakes."

Luoluo nodded slightly, her expression slightly relieved. She turned to the inside of the house and gently pushed open the door, only to see Gu Zhiyi sitting in front of the window, holding a book in her hands, with a calm expression.

"Madam, Butler Zhang Fu wants to see you." Luoluo said in a low voice.

Gu Zhiyi raised her head and looked through the window lattice at Zhang Fu. She gently put down the book, stood up and walked in front of Zhang Fu, her eyes were like water, but with unquestionable majesty.

"Zhang Fu, do you admit your guilt?" Gu Zhiyi's voice was soft, but it contained unquestionable authority.

Zhang Fu knelt down quickly, lowered his head and dared not look directly at Gu Zhiyi: "Madam, I know my crime. Please punish me."

Gu Zhiyi sighed softly, with a hint of disappointment in her eyes: "Zhang Fu, you have been in my Xie Mansion for many years and have always been loyal and reliable. I don't want to punish you. But today, you did violate the rules of the mansion. If you are not punished, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public."

Zhang Fu nodded silently, his fault was irreparable. He looked up at Gu Zhiyi, a hint of determination flashed across his face: "Madam, I am willing to accept any punishment to make up for my mistake."

Gu Zhiyi waved her hand gently, signaling Luluo to take Zhang Fu down. Luluo obeyed the order and took Zhang Fu out of the room. Walking in the corridor, Luluo couldn't help but look back at Zhang Fu, only to see that he looked calm, as if he was ready to accept the punishment.

Zhang Fu was punished this time, not because of his fault, but because he violated the rules of Xie Mansion. Luluo sat on the bed, her thoughts drifting far away. She remembered the scene when she first entered Xie Mansion. At that time, she was still a little girl who was not familiar with the world, and everything was full of curiosity and expectation. Now, she has become a personal maid of Xie Mansion and witnessed many changes in the mansion.

Luoluo was sorting clothes for Gu Zhiyi when she heard a commotion outside. She walked out of the room and saw a group of servants gathered together, talking. Luoluo felt uneasy and went over to ask what happened.

"Miss Luluo, it's bad. We've received news that Duke Ningguo was ambushed by the enemy at the border and his life or death is in danger." A servant said anxiously.

Luoluo's heart tightened, she knew that this news was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the lady. She hurried back to the room, only to see Gu Zhiyi standing in front of the window, holding the letter from Ningguo Duke in her hand, tears falling on the letter paper.

Luoluo walked gently to Gu Zhiyi, wanting to comfort her, but found that any words seemed pale and powerless.

……

Gu Zhiyi smiled faintly: "You can report to Aunt Wen and learn from her how to manage the household."

As soon as the words fell, a hint of surprise flashed in Luluo's eyes, but she quickly restrained her emotions, bowed slightly, and replied softly: "Yes, ma'am." After that, she turned around and was about to leave, but turned back and looked at Gu Zhiyi hesitantly, as if she had something to say.

Gu Zhiyi noticed Luluo's hesitation, a hint of gentleness flashed in her eyes, and she said softly: "If you have something to say, just say it."

Luoluo bit her lip and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Madam, Luoluo has an unwelcome request. I wonder if you can..."

Gu Zhiyi smiled and nodded: "Tell me, as long as it's not too much, I will agree to it."

Luoluo took a deep breath and said, "Luluo wants to see my cousin again before going to Aunt Wen's place."

Gu Zhiyi's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity, but she quickly regained her composure. She chuckled and said, "So it's for this. I understand. Okay, I'll make arrangements for you to meet him."

When Luluo heard this, a look of gratitude appeared on her face, and she quickly bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, ma'am."

On the way to Aunt Wen's residence, Luluo was excited and nervous. She thought of her past with her cousin, and a sweet feeling welled up in her heart.

Soon, Luluo arrived at Aunt Wen's residence. Gu Zhiyi was already waiting there, looking at Luluo, and nodded gently: "Go, I'll wait for you here."
