The other members of the Song family were already accustomed to Ah Gui's "disrespectful" behavior. Only Song Yuanbao was momentarily stunned. Seeing that his parents and grandparents didn't react much, he turned his gaze back and whispered to Duan Yan, "What's going on?"
"Not sure," Duan Yan replied. "This master-servant relationship is quite unusual. The servant behaves lazily and even dips into his master's money pouch from time to time, yet the master doesn't seem to have any temper about it, as if letting 'Ah Gui' have his way with everything."
As he spoke, Duan Yan concluded, "Perhaps the Xu family has a lenient family style."
Otherwise, if it were a servant like this in the Song family, breaking those thieving hands would be considered mild.
With Duan Yan's explanation, Song Yuanbao more or less understood. He glanced over Ah Gui.
