Your Loyalty As a Servant

The maid impatiently rolls her eyes as quickly as Basa Li sneers. “Miss Basa Li, do you have a hearing problem?”
“What… what do you mean?” With big eyes, Basa Li stares at the maid.
The maid deliberately yawns and says impatiently, “Didn’t you hear the missus? She acknowledges Miss An Chuxia as the one who’d be with the young master in this life. It would be impossible for you to be the young mistress. In addition, you’ve brought trouble to An Chuxia. She is kind. We will miss her kind words to us. As for your tone…
!!!”
A scream reverberates down the hall. It’s not because Basa Li strikes the maid. Instead, she knocks An Chuxia’s laptop to the ground, scaring the maid so badly, she takes three steps back.
“What happened?” Steward Han is about to remind the maid not to take the laptop when he hears the commotion in the hallway. He looks at the mortified maid as she looks at An Chuxia’s laptop on the ground. He gazes at Basa Li, and suddenly understands everything.
The aggrieved maid runs to steward Han’s side and says, “Steward Han, I followed your orders to bring the notebook down, but Basa Li asked me to get
get her a cup of hot milk, and I said I’d do it as soon as I gave you the young mistress’ notebook. Instead, she rushed to me and threw the young mistress’ notebook to the ground. What should I do?”
“What?!” Basa Li stares at the maid spitting nonsense. Yes, she definitely grabbed the notebook and threw it to the ground, but the narrative is completely fabricated, right?
He guesses Basa Li has garnered the staff’s ire. He steps up to her and says, “Miss, our young mistress has earned the respect of the staff because she has always been friendly. But you… you haven’t done that.”
“You mean to
mean to say I’m not qualified to be the Han family’s young mistress? Why are you spouting so much nonsense when you’re just a housekeeper? Didn’t I tell you yesterday, if you called that slut the young mistress, I’d dismiss you?” Basa Li didn’t intend on explaining herself, but that seems unnecessary as it is. It is really hard to cross that witch, An Chuxia!
Steward Han squats deeply before raising his head to look at Basa Li. He reverts his attention to the notebook. Fortunately, the notebook didn’t sustain any damage. He stands up and hands the laptop to the maid. “I won’t tell the missus and the master and the master about this matter. But I would like to warn you about thinking twice before doing anything,” he cautions Basa Li.
He has worked for the master for so many years that even the master regards him as a brother. And yet, this Basa Li dismisses him like a messenger. He holds back his anger. He glances at her one last time before walking away.
It is only An Chuxia who is worthy to be brought into the Han family.
With this conclusion, the butler picks up his pace as he leaves. He can hear Basa Li slander him from behind but he pretends not to hear her.
