business lady

Chapter 34 House Rules
After Jiuyuan returned to Duanfangzhai, he sat on the main seat, and Tea Xiang brought a cup of fragrant tea, which she took.

Bringing it to his mouth, he thought of drinking a cup with Xia Zhi in Bowenzhai just now, and thinking of Xia Zhi's actions at that time, he couldn't drink the tea no matter what.

Putting the tea on the table made a crisp sound because the hands were a bit heavy.

Seeing Cha Xiang, she hurriedly asked: "Miss, what's wrong! But this tea is not made well!"

It shouldn't be!This is the newly picked purple bamboo shoots this year. Sister Cha Yi brewed it herself. It's not bad!
"No, I'm not thirsty now!" Jiu Yuan explained.

What can I say!Do you want me to say that I have suffered a lot because of a cup of tea!Do you choke when you see the tea now?

Cha Xiang was waiting outside just now, and didn't know what happened in the house!
"You can ask someone to go to the various courtyards to inform them, and tell them that I feel in good spirits recently, and let them resume morning and evening sessions from tomorrow." Jiu Yuan ordered.

It seems that living in the backyard of this palace is so comfortable that you forget who is the real owner of this backyard!
I'm not going to provoke you, but it's not something you can count on casually!
"Ah! Alright! Isn't this what bothers you the most?" Cha Xiang asked.

Except for the first time when she first entered the mansion, all the courtyards came to visit the province every morning and evening, the lady claimed to be in poor health, and they came to affect her rest every day, so this rule was exempted.

Why am I reminded of this now!
"Yes! But people in this mansion should set up rules!" Jiu Yuan said meaningfully.

Tea Xiang brought people to each courtyard to pass on the restoration of the rules of morning attendance and evening inspection, Jiuyuan didn't care about the reaction of each courtyard, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they had to obediently come to pay their respects tomorrow!
She is now checking to see if there is anything missing in the offerings prepared for candidates tomorrow!
Seeing that she came back, Tan Se immediately put down the zongzi in her hand, bowed to her, and said, "Miss, you are back!"

Jiu Yuan looked at the rice grains stuck to her hands, and asked her with a smile, "Why are you also making zongzi?"

"Looking at how interesting they are, I wrapped a few too!" Tan Se said happily.

But compared to making zongzi, she prefers to eat zongzi. After the zongzi is steamed, she peels off the leaves and takes a bite. The glutinous rice has the fragrance of zongzi leaves, and the red dates inside are even sweeter and softer!
I can't think about it anymore, my mouth is watering just thinking about it!

Seeing her like that, Jiu Yuan knew what she was thinking, and scolded with a smile: "You foodie! How are the things prepared here!"

"It's almost there! There are more than 500 zongzi wrapped, and there should be no problem eating them for two days!" Tan Se stuck out her tongue and said with a clever smile.

This jujube rice dumpling not only has a good meaning, but also indicates that it can be the first prize in the morning. The most important thing is that it can be stored for several days. Even if you can't finish it, don't worry about it breaking!
"Well! Well done!" Jiu Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

Then she went to look at the excerpts of the exam papers and key points. She was entrusting this matter to Tea Art, and the few maids around her belonged to Tea Art who had the best literary talent.

In order to do this well, she specially transferred several envoys from the mansion to help tidy up the tea art together.

When Jiu Yuan went, Tea Art was reading carefully, and the envoys were also looking up or copying excerpts.

No one spoke, only the silence of the room and the rustling sound of flipping books!

Jiuyuan walked to the door and coughed lightly to remind the people who were working inside!

When the people inside heard the voice, they all raised their heads and looked outside the door. Seeing that it was Jiu Yuan coming, they all put down their work, stood up and saluted Jiu Yuan!

Jiu Yuan waved his hands to ask them not to be too polite, and said, "Don't worry about me, just keep busy with your work! I'm just looking around!"

After thanking them, they sat back at the table and continued to work.

Jiu Yuan walked towards the tea ceremony, went to her side and said, "Sit down! How are these things arranged?"

Cha Yi sat down as promised, and replied: "I have compiled and transcribed about two hundred copies in the past few days. Due to the rush of time, there cannot be more!"

There are more than two hundred examinees entering Beijing, let them pass it on tomorrow, what if there are too many people and few books?
Jiu Yuan was also thinking about this question, she pondered for a while and said: "If there are many people tomorrow, all those who come to borrow books must answer the test questions issued by the palace before they can enter; if there are few people, just let them all in!"

Tea Art's eyes lit up when he heard it, so there would be no worries for him!

Seeing that there was no problem here, Jiu Yuan went to check the construction of the temporary study room. Seeing that the tables, chairs and tea were all ready, he nodded reassuringly.

After confirming that everything was ready and waiting for the opening to candidates tomorrow, Jiu Yuan was a little relieved.

When Jiu Yuan washed up early the next morning and came to the front hall, the masters of the back houses of the palace had already been waiting for a long time.

Jiu Yuan passed them and sat down on the main seat, looking at the people in the hall.

When everyone in the hall saw her coming, they immediately saluted and said: "I have seen the princess, and the princess is well!"

Jiu Yuan didn't ask them to get up, but continued to keep them in this squatting position.He leisurely picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and gently put the tea back on the table, then looked up at the people in the hall!

Concubine Wan and Concubine Yao are at the front, Zhang Yuehua, Qin Keshuang and Chu Ge are behind,
The first two entered the door at the same time as myself, the last two were the servants I had before I entered the palace, and the last one was the top card of the brothel!
This Chu Ge got into the mansion by himself. At that time, the prince stayed in the brothel song hall every day and night, and when he entered the palace to meet the empress, the empress hinted that he should not let the prince go to such a romantic place.

What she said was for the sake of herself and the prince, wasn't she just helping her niece?

Don't you want the prince to go to the brothel?it is good!as you wish!
When I returned to the mansion, I asked someone to go to the brothel with the money, and bought this famous prostitute who was said to be very popular with the prince back to the mansion!
Now the prince will not go to the brothel anymore!You have nothing to say!
Originally, I saw that Chu Ge was really beautiful and charming, and she was also a brothel girl, so I thought she was someone who would use tricks.

Who would have thought that after she entered the mansion, she would stay peacefully in Yue Ning Ju, never going out, if she didn't pay attention, she would forget that there was such a person in the mansion!

Jiu Yuan carefully looked at their faces one by one, as if seeing them for the first time.

Could it be that one of you wants to harm me?No matter how deep you hide, I will find you out!
After a long time, Jiu Yuan slowly opened his mouth and said: "Recently, my concubine felt that she was in good health, and she remembered that the rules in the mansion have been neglected for too long. This made outsiders see it and think that the people in Duan Wang's mansion don't understand Manners and etiquette! For no reason, people underestimate Duan Wangfu!"

After hearing this, Wan Yingjiao felt a mouthful of blood stuck in her heart, unable to go up or down, she swallowed her breath fiercely, and said respectfully: "What the princess said is very true."

"Yeah!" Jiu Yuan nodded in satisfaction, as if he suddenly thought of it, he said, "Look! This concubine has forgotten, everyone, please forgive me!"

Everyone in the hall immediately thanked: "Thank you, Princess!"

Everyone stood up, although the time was not very long, but everyone knew that this was Jiuyuan warning everyone about their status in the mansion!
Jiuyuan fixed his eyes on Wan Yingjiao, and said with a light smile, "I haven't seen you for a few days, so I wonder what Yingjiao has been up to lately?"

Wan Yingjiao listened, and replied with a smile: "Princess, Yingjiao writes poems when she has nothing to do, and makes preparations for the tea party in a few days!"

These words sound like a casual answer, but there are hidden gems!

This is to despise yourself as a merchant's daughter, can't recite poems, right?
Jiu Yuan was not angry when he heard that, he glanced at her lightly, and said lightly: "Yingjiao is really in a good mood! It's a pity that my concubine is busy hosting the middle school in the mansion every day, so I can't be as leisurely as you!"

Wan Ying listened tenderly, her breath was stagnant, and she couldn't breathe well.

Is this showing off to yourself!Laugh at me, Wan Yingjiao, no matter how capable she is, she can only write and paint in this mansion, she has no bright future!
Thinking of this, the fingers of the hand hidden in the sleeve of her sleeve were ruthlessly digging into her palm. She seemed to be pinching without knowing the pain, and even felt a kind of self-torture pleasure!

It seems that after doing this, even the depression in my heart has lightened a little.

She didn't show it on her face, showing a slight smile: "The princess is joking, Yingjiao can't be compared with the princess!"

Jiu Yuan nodded in satisfaction, picked up the tea and took another sip, a sneer flashed in his eyes.

"What has Tingyu been up to recently?" Jiuyuan turned around and asked Yao Tingyu.

"Ah?! I just go shopping here every day when I have nothing to do. I have nothing to do!" Yao Tingyu didn't expect Jiuyuan to ask her, she was startled for a moment, and then said bluntly.

All the people in the hall couldn't help laughing, this Miss Yao's family is really straight-hearted, what can I say!
Wan Yingjiao even sneered in her heart, she still wants to compete with me for the position of princess with just this IQ!

Jiuyuan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Tingyu is still free and easy!"

After finishing speaking, she took a meaningful look at Wan Yingjiao!
Then she asked several other people how they were doing recently, and asked them if there was anything else that needed to be added in their lives!

Then she saw that the questions were similar, so she waved her hand and let them go to work!
