Thinking of this, their attitude grew even more humble and their expressions more respectful. They kept calling Zhang Dashuan and He "Old Mr. Zhang" and "Mrs. Zhang," while eagerly referring to Huai Zi as "Eldest Young Master" and Juhua as "Eldest Young Madam." It made Juhua feel as if they were her own family's servants. She couldn't help but sigh inwardly that the servants of these wealthy and powerful families were indeed full of schemes.
However, since she didn't plan to offend them, she didn't fuss over this. She prepared two reward envelopes and had Pu Pao hand them over.
How could the two dare to accept? Not only did they refuse, but they also kowtowed forcefully to Zhang Dashuan a few more times, claiming they deserved to die for delaying the letter. They repeated their apologies over and over until Huai Zi promised not to leak the matter. Only then did they feel relieved enough to take their leave.
