Although Sun Manhong didn't particularly like the Gao Family, she still told Steward Liu that the Gao Family were her relatives and asked him to assign an easy job for them.
Steward Liu had already heard about the Gao Family from Fu Gui, and being an old and cunning man, he had indirectly inquired about Yu Xiaolian's attitude towards the Gao Family.
Upon learning that Yu Xiaolian was angry at the Gao Family, yet exceptionally kind to their daughter, Steward Liu felt reassured.
He knew he couldn't offend the Gao Family. Family ties were one thing, but relations between mother and daughter rarely held overnight grudges.
If Sun Manyue could say a few good words for the Gao Family at the County Magistrate's Wife's place, the Gao Family might regain her favor; perhaps the County Magistrate's Wife would keep them around to serve her.
With a heart of offering gifts, Steward Liu assigned a light task to the Gao Family, having them help out in the kitchen.
