It’s not necessarily that these maids and old won have to leave.
But they are people of the residence, whether their hands are clean is hard to say, and secondly, they have been quite neglectful in serving Yun Jinnian.
Now that I’ve spent silver to get rid of them, and given them a good scolding, they won’t dare to talk nonsense outside.
Yun Jinnian nodded, "Will father be coming over to dine later?"
"He has gone out!"
Mrs. Han said nonchalantly.
With an indifferent air.
Yun Jinnian nodded in acknowledgnt.
"After the Lantern Festival, you’ll be going to study at Songshan Academy!"
Yun Jinnian was taken aback, "How can this be?"
"Just now your maternal grandfather sent soone to say that the admission notice will be sent to the Yun Residence in a few days. Jinnian, Songshan Academy is filled with learned scholars; once you’re there, you must study hard, do you understand?"
"En!"
The maids of Niannian Garden being sent out of the Yun Residence for marriage did cause quite a stir.
While the maids were exceedingly envious, Xu Xinmo felt that Yun Jinnian was flaunting his wealth.
She was not pleased in the least.
After a good cry at Cixin Academy, the old mada felt a great pity and gave Xu Xinmo quite a few nice things before coaxing her into smiles.
Before lunch, Bai Que had gone out, and after she returned post-lunch, she brought with her several deed certificates, house titles, and registrations of reputable households.
Yun Jinnian breathed out a sigh of relief, inwardly praising Bai Que’s speed in handling matters.
Back at Niannian Garden, Yun Jinnian gave all the docunts to Danxia and the others, telling them to pack up, as after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, they would leave.
Danxia and the rest were overjoyed, practically walking on air, eager to enter the room to serve Yun Jinnian. How could Hei and Henuan agree to that?
Despite Danxia and the others being adults, a single push from Hei sent Danxia stumbling back far. Just as she was about to fall, Hei swiftly went over to help her up, using the move to intimidate Danxia and the rest.
They dared not act up and only waited to leave after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, to manage their own hos.
Yun Jinnian could thus study in peace.
Unexpectedly, Yun Muyou ca for a visit.
Yun Jinnian stood up and watched Yun Muyou, dressed in a blue-pink jacket, walk gracefully toward him. Rembering Yun Muyou’s hair-pinning ceremony on the twenty-third of the first lunar month, a gentle, soft smile blossod on his face. "Big sister, what brings you here?"
He welcod Yun Muyou to sit on the Arhat bed in the small hall.
The furniture and decorations in Niannian Garden were later arranged by Yun Qi, exquisite, elegant, yet lavishly atmospheric.
Yun Muyou was montarily dazzled.
"Little sister, your place is beautifully decorated!"
"Big sister is the legitimate eldest daughter of the Yun Residence. The things in your room will only be better. All of these have been arranged by father’s people; I can’t even na them all!" Yun Jinnian replied as he pushed so treats from the table toward Yun Muyou, "Big sister, try so!"
"Are these treats from Xufuji?"
"Yes, I bought them on the way back this morning!"
Not offering them around because nobody would care.
Yun Muyou’s face subtly changed. Now the household was different than before; last year’s profits had been robbed by bandits while being transported back to the capital, and the residence’s expenses had to be greatly reduced.
Confectionery from Xufuji has always been expensive, and this little sister of hers seed quite wealthy.
Yun Muyou collected her thoughts and took a piece to bite, "Mmm, it is indeed delicious!"
After eating the confectionery and drinking so herbal tea, Yun Muyou discovered that, not having seen her for a year, this little sister of hers had learned how to live life well.
She was no longer as shy and lowly as before but now carried herself with dignity, neither arrogant nor impetuous. She acted calmly yet very systematically, and while she spoke gently and softly, she observed everything closely.
"Actually, little sister, I ca here because I need a favor!"
"What is it, big sister?" Yun Jinnian asked.
Feeling puzzled inside.
Yun Muyou found it sowhat difficult to speak.
