The Noble Consort is the most favored in the harem

Chapter 121 - The Dong Family Recuperates

Steward Lin remained silent.

He wasn't surprised by the outcome at all.

After all, he had witnessed the grievances the main household had endured over the years.

However, as a mere servant, it wasn't his place to say much.

Now that they could leave the Prime Minister's Residence and live their own lives, it was indeed a good thing.

He respectfully bowed to Master Lin and said, "Safe travels, Master."

As for Shusui, she could only follow Steward Lin's example and bow, not daring to show any unnecessary expressions.

Though she hadn't been directly involved in the Yuxin Pavillion incident, she couldn't escape it either.

After all, she belonged to the second branch of the family. It was already fortunate that the master wasn't making things difficult for her or holding her accountable.

With that thought, she became even more respectful.

When Master Lin left with the last chest of luggage, the entire East Wing Courtyard was emptied.

As the sun set in the west, its golden glow bathed the Prime Minister's Residence in warmth.

It was a comforting scene.

And for the people of the main household, they finally had the possibility of a fresh start.

After leaving the Prime Minister's Residence, Master Lin headed straight for the Dong family.

By the time he arrived, Madam Dong and Lin Muzhi had already settled in.

The family was staying in the courtyard where Madam Dong had lived before her marriage.

At the same time, Lin Muzhi was living in a smaller courtyard nearby.

This small courtyard was close to the one belonging to the second master of the Dong family.

It was only about a half-cup of tea's time away by foot.

So, the arrangement was quite ideal.

As soon as Master Lin entered the small courtyard, he saw it was crowded with servants.

Some were the ones they had brought with them, but most were originally from the Dong family.

There were servants from the Old Madam Dong's household, from Madam Dong's, from the second Madam's, and even a few from the Dong children's households.

Everyone was gathered here.

Master Lin's expression became grave, worried that something unexpected had happened.

He hurriedly walked over.

As soon as he entered the room, he heard Old Madam Dong sobbing.

"My dear grandson! How could such a good child have suffered so much!"

She cried as she gently wiped his hand with a handkerchief.

Ever since Lin Muzhi returned to the Dong family, Old Madam Dong had ordered someone to change him into clean undergarments.

Everything used was of the highest quality.

Not a single detail was overlooked.

Immediately, she had two capable people by her side: Wu Momo, who managed the household, and a clever young servant boy.

Wu Momo, though appearing to be under fifty, moved with efficiency and a sense of decorum that showed she had some skill.

She kept replacing the handkerchief in Old Madam Dong's hand, fearing the cloth might cool and be harmful to Lin Muzhi.
