Chapter 802: Chapter 802: Starving on the Street Chapter 802: Chapter 802: Starving on the Street Xuexue stood with an old crone full of wrinkles on her left, and Zi Xia on her right.

In front of them stood a dense crowd of servants, whispering among themselves. They were suddenly summoned by the eldest daughter and didn’t know what had happened.

However, some maids who had only recently arrived recognized the old woman as a Human Trafficker. Before entering the General’s Mansion, they had been sold back and forth by her, beaten harshly whenever a buyer rejected them. This life continued for half a year before they were eventually sold to the General’s Mansion.

They thought they could finally live a peaceful life, but today, the Human Trafficker appeared in the General’s Mansion, scaring them into lowering their heads and trembling.

The servant standing next to them felt puzzled and asked, “Xiaoyan, Xiuxiu, what’s the matter? Why are you so scared?”

Xiaoyan’s face was pale, her lips white, shivering as she shook her head: “No…nothing.”

“Looking like you’ve seen a ghost and still saying ‘nothing?'” Share with us what’s happening,” the other servants by their side whispered, silently urging as the eldest daughter hadn’t started speaking yet.

Xiuxiu glanced fearfully at the old maid behind Xuexue and blurted out in panic: “The… the Old Maid behind the eldest daughter… is a Human Trafficker.”

The other servants’ faces changed instantly upon hearing this.

They all understood what it meant for a Human Trafficker to show up here.

Suddenly, it became chaotic: “No way! Is the eldest daughter planning to sell us off?”

As they discussed, word quickly spread among the servants in the courtyard, and soon everyone knew the old woman behind Xuexue was a Human Trafficker.

The entire courtyard erupted into uproar.

“Miss, we haven’t done anything wrong. You can’t just sell us off,” some bold servants openly protested.

Zi Xia stepped forward and shouted angrily, “How dare you! How could you all discuss the decisions made by the eldest daughter?”

Xuexue glanced over, realizing most of them were Lady Tang’s people.

A small portion of the servants knew how to protect themselves–those who simply do their duties, regardless of who their master is.

These people, Xuexue decided not to bother with them and let them continue serving in the General’s Mansion.

With memories of her past life, Xuexue knew clearly whom to keep and whom to let go.

Today, she was determined to completely eliminate Lady Tang’s spies, so if Lady Tang returned to the General’s Mansion in the future, she wouldn’t be able to thrive as before.

Xuexue gently said, “Today, I indeed do need to remove some people. You all know well who I mean, so no one should cry injustice.”

“Miss, are you taking advantage of madam’s absence to exclude those who oppose you?” one of the Old Maids raised her voice.

Xuexue recognized her as one of Lady Tang’s spies, fiercely loyal.

“You’re right, I am indeed excluding dissenters. What can you, a mere servant, do about it?” Xuexue smiled lightly. “Looking at you, you don’t fit here in the General’s Mansion either. Let’s start with you.”

The Old Maid’s face turned pale, instantly regretting her outspokenness as she became the first to fall on bad luck, thudding down and kowtowing on the ground, “Eldest daughter, I beg you, don’t sell me. I’m old, and no one would want to buy me; wouldn’t I starve on the streets?”

Unmoved, Xuexue casually waved her hand.

A few guards stepped forward and dragged her aside.

Xuexue then said, “Zi Xia, begin.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Zi Xia stepped forward and addressed the servants: “In a moment, step forward when your name is called.”
