After a long walk, the two arrived at a side courtyard. The Steward An that Steward Lai Fu mentioned was the steward in charge of the daily affairs of the An Family.
Steward Lai Fu didn't need to stay any longer after bringing Gu Xijiu to Steward An. After bidding farewell to Schilling's Shadow, he drove the carriage back to Bei 'an City.
Even though Steward An was over seventy years old, his old, cloudy eyes were filled with shrewdness and sharpness. He appeared to be polite, but in reality, he was sizing up Schilling's Shadow without leaving a trace. His hoarse, vigorous voice was filled with power.
"Miss Nine, this old servant has already arranged your living quarters. Please follow this old servant." With that, he led Schilling's Shadow on a long walk and finally stopped in front of a courtyard. "This is the place. According to the master's arrangements, this old servant has already arranged for eight maidservants for you. If that's not enough, you can ask for more."
Schilling's Shadow frowned. What did she need so many maidservants for?
"There's no need. Two of them will be enough. You can take the rest with you."
Steward An was a little surprised. He glanced at Schilling's Shadow with his old eyes, then nodded and dismissed the six maidservants. "The master is hosting a grand auction, so he's not in the imperial capital. However, he has already arranged everything. If Miss Nine has any questions, just send the maidservants to find this old servant."
She nodded and said, "When can I see your young master? I need to understand his leg condition before I can make further arrangements for his treatment."
Steward An's wooden face trembled slightly. After hesitating for a few seconds, he said, "Ninth Young Miss, you've been tired from traveling for so many days. It's better for you to rest for a day. Tomorrow, this old servant will bring Young Miss to see Young Master."
Since he said so, Schilling's Shadow shrugged. "As you wish."
"Since there's nothing else, this old servant will take his leave." With that, Steward An left the courtyard.
Schilling's Shadow felt that Steward An's expression was a little strange when he mentioned the young master. Thus, she summoned the two maidservants in the courtyard and asked them about the young master. Unexpectedly, the two maidservants instantly turned pale and lowered their heads.
"We're sorry, Miss. As servants, we're not qualified to talk about our master's matters. If we're caught, we'll be beaten very badly."
Schilling's Shadow saw their frightened expressions and guessed that this young master had a bad temper.
"You don't have to worry. I'm asking you because the steward told me to do so. He seems to be very busy. and as your young master's physician, it's necessary for me to know his condition.. and there are only the three of us in the courtyard.... Who would know what you're talking about?"
When the two servant girls heard that it was the steward's arrangement, their expressions softened a little.
