Nanny Qi was both helpless and amused. She was too subtle, wasn't she? Without being more straightforward, how could the young girl understand what she wanted to say?
With this thought, Nanny Qi reiterated, "My dear girl, the servants in our courtyard are all of roughly the same grade. Without someone to lead them, this situation won't do. Don't you think so?"
Fearing that her words were still not clear enough, she added earnestly and enticingly, "Shouldn't we promote someone?"
Lian Hua was struggling with what title to give to Xiao Jizi. That little eunuch was so slippery and annoying; it wasn't easy to pick a suitable title for him.
She blinked in surprise upon hearing Nanny Qi's words, "Ah? Nanny, are you suggesting we promote them?"
Nanny Qi nodded. That was indeed what she meant. Now that the young girl understood, things would be easier; she could follow Nanny Qi's guidance.
