Zhou Yongchang thought that although planting trees was hard labor, not only would it save his life, but he would also have a job in the future, so that he could live his life well.
For servants like them who had made mistakes, if it was serious, they would be punished like First Madam and sent to the government. If they were beaten and exiled, their lives would be in danger.
Even the lightest mistakes would cause them to be chased out. Such an experience could easily be found out by others. In the future, they wouldn't be able to find any work outside. Soon, their days would be numbered.
Even though Eldest Miss dealt with the servants, she was still sincere and righteous. Zhou Yongchang also kowtowed gratefully like Mother Yang.
After thinking about it carefully, Yu Zongzheng could tell that Yao Yao had put in a lot of effort to deal with this matter. It was indeed a show of kindness. "Alright, we'll do as you say."
