As things went uncontrollable, Cuiwei just gave up and led Danju and Xiaotao to safely guard Minglan's main room, turning a blind eye to other situations. At a time, the House of Clear Dusk was in a complete mess without any binding rules. Lower level girl servants imitated adult servants, either hanging out or visiting other courtyards to chitchat. Only Yancao and a few others performed their duties and earnestly did their work, which could be attributed to Fang Mama's effective training for these years.
