Lin Mengya suddenly changed the topic and said gently. But she looked at these servants coldly at the same time.
Steward Deng and Lin Kui didn't have to come here. But they represented the opinions of the Prince.
In addition to the Princess, the Prince may also have several vice Princesses and concubines. But Long Tianhao needed to let everyone in the mansion knew that Lin Mengya was their real master.
Lin Mengya looked around and immediately noticed that there were two maids who dared not look her in the eye.
They were bossy and domineering in the morning. It was too late for them to be afraid.
"Princess, please forgive me! It's all my fault! I was stupid and didn't recognize Baishao. I'm sorry I offended you this morning."
Lin Mengya had never met these two maids before. They flopped down on their knees and tearfully pleaded with Lin Mengya to forgive them.
Their parents were also servants in Prince Yu's Mansion. The Princess had bought many servant girls and maids from the middleman and they were afraid of becoming useless and expendable. Therefore, they were deceived by Miss Lin and Miss Jiang and started to work for them.
Lin Mengya looked at these two maids. One of them got that bruises on her cheek while the other had reddening welts on her hands.
She glanced at her personal servant and found that she was still angry. Lin Mengya realized that Baishao had a great fighting capacity.
"You said that you didn't recognize Baishao and offended her. But I think that you stirred up trouble on purpose. Anyway, you've broken the rules. Steward Deng, please tell me how to handle them based on the rules of Prince Yu's Mansion."
Looking at the Princess who was elegant and beautiful, Steward Deng couldn't believe that she was also a scheming and clever girl.
He thought that she ought to be at the right hand of the Prince and the mansion could become safe and sound under her supervision.
"These two maids offended Princess. According to the rules of Prince Yu's Mansion, we need to cancel their residence registrations and sell them to the woman broker if their parents are also our servants. If they signed revocable contracts with us, we will hit them fifty times with a wooden stick before driving them out."
The faces of the two maids suddenly darkened.
They were no longer citizens of this country if their residence registrations were canceled.
If the master sold them to the broker woman, they would become slaves and could never get paid.
The young slaves could be sold at a good price while the old slaves like them could only do backbreaking work for the rest of their lives.
"Princess, please forgive me! Please don't kick me off!"
The two maids broke down in tears and cried for mercy. But Lin Mengya remained indifferent to their tears.
No one dared intercede for those two maids. They clearly knew that the Princess would punish them mercilessly if they offended her, so they remained silent.
"There are many servants and many rules in the mansion. I want all of you to be vigilant and to avoid bringing shame on the Prince, otherwise, I will not spare you."
The servants of the mansion were scared by her cold voice.
No one dared to look her in the eye. They were afraid that the Princess would follow the rules and dismiss them if they pissed her off.
Looking at their expressions, Lin Mengya nodded slightly while Baiji took out a box of red packets.
"This is the master's reward for your good behavior. Those who made mistakes must be punished and those who followed the rules will have a reward."
Baiji took the box and gave everyone a red packet.
After opening it, they saw three taels of silver and a delicate pure gold chain.
"I don't know how to reward you and could only give you a little money. You can buy a drink. Please work hard and I'll not treat you shabbily."
A mixture of stick and carrot always worked. First-class servant girls working for them only had a monthly payment of several taels of silver, pieces of coarse cloth, and the money to buy make-up.
The manservants and butlers working outside the courtyard were also badly paid.
Therefore, Lin Mengya was quite generous and successfully won popularity among servants.
But a beautiful girl suddenly appeared at the door of the Qinglan Courtyard before all the servants left.
Lin Mengya glanced at her casually and realized that it was Lin Mengwu, her vicious sister.
Why did she come here? How dare she walk into the Qinglan courtyard and offend her?
"Sorry, I forgot to pay respect to you. Sister Princess, wish you all happiness."
Lin Mengwu greeted her affectionately but Lin Mengya clearly knew her intention. She snorted silently but didn't show any aversion.
"Get up. What a surprise! What brings you here?"
Lin Mengwu wore a goose-yellow gauzy dress today.
She also wore some fashionable artificial flowers in her hair. She looked beautiful and smiled with feigned elegance and modesty.
"I'm young and innocent. Mother told me to visit Sister Princess earlier but you were always busy recently. So I didn't come here to bother you."
But deep in her heart, Lin Mengwu really hated Lin Mengya who was sitting in front of her.
Both of them were daughters of the Lin family but father and brother only loved Lin Mengya since they were still kids.
