They increased Wanxing's monthly allowance to eight hundred coins and announced that Wanxing would be the steward of waiters.
Let her teach every woman how to receive guests, how to speak, and how to dress.
All three women were completely convinced.
You get paid more for learning new skills, and you're happier that way!
In addition, Wanxing was asked to train Ajin and the four men in reception etiquette.
From the first time Mu Huaisheng met the siblings, he knew from their clothes that they must be from a wealthy family who had suffered a disaster.
As they got to know each other better, it became clear that both siblings were exceptional individuals.
It's really important to build positive relationships with capable people!
On the second day of the second month, Pingbo told Muhuaisheng that the house was almost ready and they could choose a day to move in.
Mu Huaisheng couldn't contain his joy:
So particular!
Pingbo helped me check, and February 8th and 9th are both auspicious days.
It's set for February 9th!
At noon, after finishing my business at the shop, I was preparing to go to the Marquis's residence.
They banged gongs and drums and set off firecrackers, making a ruckus at the entrance. Master Qi personally delivered the plaque and the word "bitch".
In the corner of the plaque, there is a gold seal pattern of imperial bestowal or imperial order.
This incident made Huaisheng's shop famous on the street for a while.
When customers entered the store, they found that the prices were the same as before, which earned them a wave of positive reviews.
People who previously thought it was expensive no longer think it is.
When colleagues came to visit the store, they found that the prices had not changed, and there was still only one signature product.
They secretly mocked him, saying it was all bark and no bite, utterly useless.
Mu Huaisheng's strategy is:
Aside from the store's prized possessions, the rest are small but exquisite.
You can buy them individually, or you can mix and match many styles to form a set.
However, building one yourself is much more expensive than buying one from another store.
Third Master also presented some congratulatory gifts on behalf of the Duke's Mansion.
Mu Huaisheng then politely said:
"I'd like to invite everyone from the Duke's mansion to a simple meal another day. I would greatly appreciate it if Third Master would grace us with his presence."
"Of course, we'll wait for your next invitation!"
After seeing Third Master off, she was so happy that she didn't even come to her senses.
Next, the store experienced a small surge in business, with everyone automatically canceling their breaks to make money.
On February 9th, some daily necessities were left at the Marquis's residence, and everything else was moved back.
The lady also added some congratulatory gifts.
That evening, the four veterans moved Uncle Li back and settled him in the back seat.
From then on, two people would take turns watching the warehouse, while the other three would sleep back and watch the house. During the day, they would lock the door and go to work.
Madam Wang and her daughter were arranged to stay in the back room next to the small kitchen.
When there's business at the shop, we usually stay in the lower rooms. During the off-season, when the shop is closed, we go back to the Mu residence together.
When asked about Wanxing's wishes, Wanxing said that since she had been born into the family, she would naturally go.
He then followed Mu Huaisheng and lived in the main courtyard.
The only difference was that Mu Huaisheng slept in the main room, while she slept in the west wing.
If Xiao Qianyan returns, she will sleep on the bed where the maid keeps watch in the main room, while Xiao Qianyan will sleep in the west wing.
Pingbo truly lives up to his reputation as the steward of the Marquis's mansion; he practically made the place move-in ready, and even the flower gardens were pleasing to the eye.
Mu Huaisheng thought for a moment and then asked them to keep an eye out for any maids or servants who did menial tasks.
For honest and hardworking people, they can buy it to clean and tidy up the house, wash clothes, and so on.
Then they showed a few more Chinese characters to see if there were any warhorses or similar items discarded from the battlefield.
Buy two horses and bring them back; if anything happens, just saddle them and you can ride them.
Buy another carriage frame, then you can harness a horse to the carriage.
Use the horse that Xiao Qianyan keeps in the back room of the shop for now. It can carry Uncle Li around every day, and keep it in the stable at night.
Mu Huaisheng: It's still so comfortable to live in your own house!
On the day we moved in, everyone except those on duty in the two warehouses came back to sleep.
Later, they would often come back to stay and clean.
For a long time, Mu Huaisheng didn't lie down in his own bed.
On the last day of February, the noblewoman sought out Mu Huaisheng after lunch:
"Huaisheng, the Duke's Mansion says they will come to pick you up for dinner tonight."
"Yes, Madam, I will tell your sisters about your recuperation over the next period of time later."
The second young master's instructions have also been given.
The old Marquis and his wife are used to being served by their side; they just need to have their pulse checked every now and then.
"It's not about these things!"
I'll naturally send a car to pick you up every now and then; Xiao Jingtang and Xiao Jingyang will miss you dearly!
I can't stand using other people anymore~
After saying that, she smiled and continued,
"There are some things that Atan told me I know."
The young master has taken the legitimate daughter of an eighth-rank secretary as a concubine, and now their child is about to be born.
Your journey will be different this time, so don't cause any trouble.
Aside from the few proper masters of the Duke's mansion, you have to ask permission before anyone else can contact you.
Unless there is something else, do not leave Nian'an's courtyard.
Everything was fine at first after the woman entered the room.
The Crown Princess thought that he was just like the rest of the family—honest and law-abiding.
Unexpectedly, the woman was quite shrewd, managing to make the Crown Prince and Crown Princess estranged.
Nobody knows what the situation is like inside.
The last time I saw Qingwu, she was really not doing well at such a young age.
But I finally got Jingyang again, and with the child so young, I really can't bear to let you go.
Qi San naturally figured it out.
February has just ended, and yesterday someone came to tell you about things that happened in the past.
I figured it was a bit urgent, so I agreed immediately.
If I am truly unable to handle this situation, please let Uncle Ruan know.
I'll find an excuse to bring you back~
Upon hearing this, Mu Huaisheng didn't know how to thank the noblewoman.
The two chatted about everyday things for a while, then Mu Huaisheng went back to pack his things.
After giving instructions and packing up, the sun was already setting.
The noblewoman sent someone to inform them that someone from the Duke's mansion had come to pick them up.
Mu Huaisheng went to say goodbye to the noblewoman. Pingbo helped her carry two simple bags and saw her onto the carriage.
It was the Moon Palace that came to pick them up in a carriage. The Moon Palace took the two bundles and put them into the carriage.
Mu Huaisheng said goodbye to Pingbo, turned around, got into the carriage, and left.
As he climbed into the carriage, a large hand grabbed Mu Huaisheng's arm. He looked up and was startled:
Qi Luan.
"Third Master? What's wrong?"
"Why did you come to pick me up but not get out of the car?"
After Mu Huaisheng settled in, he nodded.
"Getting off the bus would have been too much trouble, so I just waited for you in the car. That was much more efficient!"
Mainly, there are some things I need to tell you in advance.
Mu Huaisheng pricked up his ears:
It's here! It's here! I'm about to hear the secrets of the Duke's mansion!
Quick, calm down!
Pretend you don't know anything, don't cause trouble for the lady!
"Third Master, you're too kind."
"This time, your main responsibility is to take care of my, Nian'an's, and my second sister-in-law's health."
Of course, your father, mother, second brother, and sister-in-law will also need to trouble you from time to time.
Besides, if there are other people who need your medical attention, you must first ask your second sister-in-law.
When I am at home, you may send someone to ask me.
When there's nothing to do, Nian'an can stay in the courtyard. He's starting his studies, so you can read some books, practice your handwriting, and do your homework. I'll check your work every day.
Don't go to your father's or mother's house except for Zhegui and Aunt Liang who come to call you.
My sister-in-law has something to do, and so does Song Mama. I'm in the Moon Palace.
If my second brother looks for you, immediately send someone to tell your sister-in-law.
Did you understand?
Mu Huaisheng: Looks like a formidable one has arrived this time. May I ask him something?
"I understand, but why?"
"You don't need to know why, just remember it~"
Mu Huaisheng's eyes sparkled with hearts:
Wow~ Young Master Qi Luan, in his early twenties~
So charming!
There were too many people at the full moon celebration, so I was too embarrassed to look. Last time, I was too excited to even look at the plaque I presented.
Looking at her up close today, her individual features aren't exceptionally beautiful, but together they're pleasing to the eye and give her a sophisticated air!
