Mrs. Zhen left Lianfu Garden and returned straight to Qinghui Garden, then sent someone to call Nanny Shui over.
Nanny Shui did not dare delay, quickly made her way over, wiped the sweat off her face under the veranda, tidied the corners of her clothes, and then followed Shui Yue inside.
Mrs. Zhen was seated in the East Wing, waiting for Nanny Shui to greet her before instructing Shui Yue to offer her a seat.
Nanny Shui declined politely a few times, but eventually sat on the edge of the stool.
Mrs. Zhen asked, "Nanny, you've been at Anhua Courtyard for five or six years now. In your opinion, among those second-tier maids, is there anyone outstanding?"
Nanny Shui lowered her eyes, quietly contemplating for a moment.
When Mrs. Zhen originally sent her to serve at Anhua Courtyard, it was tantamount to having an informant, for any major or minor event involving Du Yunluo, Nanny Shui would report to Mrs. Zhen.
