Liu Genmao's ancestors were also commoners, but later, due to hard times, they became domestic slaves to a household, and this servitude lasted for decades. During his grandfather's time, he was arranged by the master to manage this estate, becoming the steward. Since then, although the estate had changed hands several times, they were always highly valued.
The reason they were esteemed by various masters was not only because his family could endure hardship and labor, but more importantly, they understood one principle: to be loyal to whichever master they served. The thing masters dreaded most was disloyality and treachery.
By the time Liu Genmao became the steward, Yang Ruxin was his third master.
Although Yang Ruxin looked like a pretty little girl, Liu Genmao knew from her speech that she was not simple.
