"My lord, please agree," Steward Li pleaded pitifully, "I really have no other choice. You don't understand, when my wife loses her temper..."
"Look at the little backbone you have," Bai Daqing glared fiercely at Steward Li.
Steward Li hung his head, looking very wronged.
"Fine, let your son come back," Bai Daqing finally conceded.
"Thank you, my lord, thank you," Steward Li didn't stop thanking him.
"Old Li, you've also been an old hand in the mansion. I have placed great trust in you, otherwise, I would not have made you the Grand Steward," Bai Daqing spoke with earnest gravity, "You are capable and efficient, and these years you have managed the City Lord's Mansion in perfect order, but..." at this point, Bai Daqing's tone became severe, "your wife really doesn't know what's good for her. Not only does she throw tantrums in the mansion, but she also came to me, crying and making a scene. If it wasn't for your sake, I would have driven her out long ago."
