After the zombies traveled through time, they were tricked by the villain into becoming a stepmother

The old lady also breathed a sigh of relief, and was helped up from the ground by Lin Youan, who was slightly staggering. She patted the child's hand gently, signaling him not to worry.

This caring interaction was all noticed by the attentive Manager Wei.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The old lady of the Chu family had been clear-headed and sharp-eyed all her life, and was a very qualified mistress of a high-ranking family. Perhaps her only fault was that she raised Chu Yushu's daughter?

Ugh.

Seeing how old and frail the other person was, Manager Wei didn't know whether he should tell the old lady of the Chu family the sad news that she had once again lost a loved one in front of her.

But we can’t not say it, right?

The Chu family wanted to clear themselves, but they couldn't get around the fact that they hated Chu Yushu. After weighing the words in his mind, he sighed and spoke.

"Minister Chu, regarding the case of the Gu Chu family's audacity to confuse the royal bloodline, how are you going to deal with it?"

Old Chu stood up, lowered his head and carefully read the so-called confession letter. Under his drooping eyelids was a hidden pain.

Even though Chu Yushu did so many wrong things later, she was just a spoiled and smiling little girl at the beginning. She was also his younger sister who was not well-behaved but very likable.

They were brothers and sisters, all born and raised by the same mother. From childhood to adulthood, they had never experienced any sibling conflicts like other families.

If I hadn't met that damn pretty boy, there wouldn't have been so many troubles later.

Now that Hua'er has passed away, Shu'er may have a hard time finding a way to survive...

The old lady, who was already sitting at the head of the table, looked over calmly. Her eyes were calm and even cold, and her old voice was gentle but firm.

“Please rest assured, Chief Steward Wei, my Chu family will never tolerate someone who disrespects the imperial power, harms her brothers and sisters, is disloyal to the royal family, and is unfilial to her parents!

I have already ordered my son to call the clan members to open the ancestral hall and ask for the family tree, and to expel that disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unjust person from our Chu family.

Whatever happens to her in the future is her own fault and cannot be blamed on anyone else, and it has nothing to do with our Chu family!"

Manager Wei raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but sigh.

This lady is indeed worthy of being the mistress of an aristocratic family who has been in charge of the household for decades. She is decisive and ruthless in killing!

"If that's the case, then I'll know how to reply to His Majesty when I return to the palace."

He bent down and raised his hand to bow, his tone became slightly heavy, and a look of comfort appeared on his face.

"Please also inform Minister Chu and Madam Chu that the offender, Gu Chu, committed suicide in the back house of the Gu Mansion at around 5 pm."

Even though he was mentally prepared, Chu Zhankui still staggered slightly when he heard the bad news and almost lost his composure on the spot.

Steward Wei, who was standing nearby, quickly spoke to comfort him.

"Minister Chu, please accept my condolences."

The old lady sitting at the top snorted coldly when she heard this, her aged voice full of energy.

"Humph, why should I mourn? Chu Yushu is no longer a member of my Chu family, so why should I worry about her death?

Steward Wei, no matter how the emperor punishes the Gu family woman, it is what she deserves. It has nothing to do with the Chu family!"

Madam Chu reiterated once again that everything Chu Yushu did was her personal behavior. It might have something to do with her husband's family, but it definitely had nothing to do with her natal family.

Chu Daidai, who had been sitting nearby and listening to the whole thing and had eaten most of the melon, reached out and pulled the kid who was not far away.

"An An, I know Chu Yushu. She really died in the Gu family this time, is that what you mean?"

Lin Youan nodded.

Chu Chi scratched his head and suddenly remembered something. So he raised his arm and stretched out his paw to seek attention.

As expected of General Wei, who had served the petty-minded emperor for many years, he was a smart man who could listen to all directions and keep an eye on all sides.

The first one saw the raised little paw, and he slid over with a smile on his face.

"What can I do for you, Princess? Just tell me what to do!"

Chu Daidai, who originally had something serious to say, was quickly distracted and turned to look at him with a puzzled look.

"Why is your name so strange?"

She tilted her head unwisely, scanned the other person carefully from head to toe, and then gave sincere advice.

"I think you look pretty good, white and plump. It would be nice to call you Baozi, Mantou, Yuanxiao, or Doubao. Why do you have to call me old slave? It doesn't sound nice."

"...Old slave, no, my slave..."

Steward Wei, who had been clever for most of his life, was suddenly scolded by the little princess and couldn't even speak. Fortunately, he was used to being very smart and could come up with a plan to deal with it in a blink of an eye.

"Thank you, Princess, for the name. I will change it immediately. From now on, I will change my name to Wei Doubao!"

"What to feed?"

Chu Chi didn't quite understand, and Steward Wei thought that the princess was dissatisfied, so he quickly compromised again.

"...Or Wei, Baozi?"

"Are you hungry?"

She noticed Sister Qiao'er, who was holding pastries and guarding the door, not daring to come in, so she quickly stretched out her claws and waved.

"Sister Qiao'er, here! The white jade cake is mine!"

The head maid looked up at her old lady, and after receiving a nod of approval, she quickly walked in and placed the cakes in front of Miss Seven, then quickly bowed and left.

He picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into his mouth. It was sweet and sticky and really delicious. It was a pity that An An didn't like sweet things. He really had no taste!

Looking at the fat white old man in front of me, he gives people a very comfortable feeling, as if he likes his own appearance very much.

Mr. Chu raised his chin proudly.

There are really not many people in this world who are as smart, capable and good-looking as me. Isn't it normal that you like me?

It only shows that this fat old man has a good taste.

When a person is happy, his hands are not so stingy. He picked up a piece of white jade cake and handed it over, mumbling something inarticulately.

"Here you go, white jade cake is better than steamed buns and bean buns!"

"Hey, hey! Thank you, Princess. From now on, I will be called Wei Baiyu!"

Chief Steward Wei took the cakes bestowed by Her Royal Highness the Princess with a beaming smile, and was so happy that he didn't even have the weird look that a eunuch should have.

The kid sitting on the side looked at the wrinkled face of the other person. Now he was smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum. Where was the cold and scary look just now?

He turned away with a stomachache.

This old eunuch is really adaptable!

It seems that what Lord Shen taught was correct. The water in the capital city is really muddy. If any plaque falls down, the person lying underneath could be a real person.

Alas, it seems that the road to a career in politics is indeed long and difficult.

He still has a lot to learn!
