Steward Cen smiled so broadly his teeth showed: "I will definitely pass this on to the Grand Commander."
Maidservants cannot casually replace their masters in inviting guests, but Tan'er has been different since she came to Haitang Courtyard.
She doesn't seem to consider herself a maid, sleeps until she naturally wakes up, and Meng Qianqian never urges her, nor does she enforce the courtyard's rules upon her.
Nanny Li tried to teach Tan'er proper etiquette for a few days, but eventually discovered... she couldn't teach her anything at all.
Ban Xia, however, decided to sternly warn her that as a maid, she needed to have the awareness of one.
"Tan'er."
"Hm? Good words!"
"I need to talk to you about something."
"Mhm mhm! Good words! Speak!"
"We who serve under others..."
"Good words make me cry! Boo hoo hoo! I'll go snatch the Governor Mansion's cook! Ban Xia, what did you just say?"
Ban Xia sighed: "Nothing worth repeating."
