Chapter 381: Chapter 380: Moving Out

Mrs. Wu, the second in charge of the kitchen, was flogged with twenty strokes and sold, while Manager Jiang, the Foreign Affairs Room servant who had disrespected his master, was beaten with ten strokes and banished from the mansion. Manager Luo, from the kitchen, who was also partly responsible, was reassigned to a lesser role. Chen Afu had long disliked these individuals, who were all appointed by the Luos.

Chen Afu ordered, "Add twenty more strokes. How dare she instigate discord between mistress and master?"
