"This, this yard?" The Old Madame looked at the yard in shock.
Who would have a vegetable field in their yard? Weren't they supposed to plant flowers and ornamental trees?
Seeing the Old Madame's confusion, Ki Chien-chul explained, "The Princess Consort likes to plant some herbs and vegetables to cultivate her mind. This King gave this yard to her. This yard is the largest in the Prince's Mansion, so it's convenient for her to plant as much as she wants."
"It really is big." The Old Madame nodded in satisfaction. "Look, Xu Mama, it's twice as big as my yard."
"Isn't that so, Old Madame? Our Young Miss is lucky to have found a man like Royal Highness, who knows how to pamper her."
"Ha, hahaha …" Wei Ziyao laughed awkwardly at their flattery and didn't respond.
Ki Chien-chul's face darkened, clearly displeased. He poked Wei Ziyao's waist and said in a small voice, "This King is supporting you, and you're unhappy?"
"I took this yard myself, what does it have to do with you? You were the bad guy, but you said all the good things."
"You woman …" Ki Chien-chul had never seen such a stubborn woman. "This King just doesn't want Old Madame to worry about you. Since you don't appreciate it, then This King will leave."
Finished speaking, he made to leave. Wei Ziyao lightly grabbed his sleeve. After a moment's hesitation, she pursed her lips and said, "Thank you for Royal Highness's kindness, but I really don't want Grandmother to worry."
Wei Ziyao's words surprised Ki Chien-chul.
If he remembered correctly, this was the first time she had softened her tone since they got married.
Usually, if she wasn't attacking him with her spear, she would be mocking him. He was even used to Wei Ziyao like that.
Without saying anything, he took a step back and returned to Wei Ziyao's side.
The old madam turned around and saw them standing together lovingly. Her heart was filled with emotions.
"I've embarrassed myself in front of Royal Highness. I shouldn't have troubled Royal Highness with the matters of the Marshal's Residence, but this time …"
"Grandmother, please don't say such polite words again. You have loved Yao 'er since you were a child. She has been accompanying Eighth Princess in the palace all year round. You two seldom spend time together. Now that you have a chance, you two should get closer to each other. Don't worry about other things. Just settle down here. Later, let Yao' er come with me to choose a few clever maids to serve you here."
"We've troubled the Royal Highness." The old madam was very satisfied.
The courtyard was very big, and there were many rooms. However, Wei Ziyao did not tidy them up earlier. After all, only she and Tsui Hee lived here. Now that there were more people, it was time for her to tidy up the rest of the rooms.
After settling Old Madame in Wei Ziyao's room, they left the herb garden.
It was already evening. In the blink of an eye, more than half of the day had passed.
"I really couldn't tell that the Royal Highness is so good at communicating with the elderly."
"This King learned martial arts from Wei Shuai when he was young. This King has taken great care of the Dowager Duchess. Now that she is old and her descendants are unfilial, This King naturally can't sit by and do nothing."
"Royal Highness, you're so righteous!" Wei Ziyao gave him a thumbs up and then skipped forward.
Seeing her like this, Ki Chien-chul felt a headache. How could a woman like her, who was never honest, be a dignified and virtuous wangfei?
However, he didn't know why, but her vulgar praise didn't make him feel disgusted.
Just like this, Wei Ziyao skipped to the accounting room.
Because the previous steward had looked down on the wangfei, his legs were broken and he was thrown out of the palace.
Wei Ziyao didn't think that Ki Chien-chul would do things so decisively.
"If you throw him out, who's going to be the steward?"
"In a few days, the head steward of this palace will be coming back. Hong Hao will be in charge for the next few days."
"Hong Hao is pretty good at everything." After chatting before, Wei Ziyao learned that even though Hong Hao was usually silly, his martial arts were very good.
She didn't think that he could be the steward.
Ki Chien-chul raised an eyebrow, "You admire him a lot?"
"It's not a lot, just a little bit."
"What do you admire about him?"
Ki Chien-chul didn't let go of this question. He had to ask about everything that he admired.
"His martial arts are very strong."
