Zhang Yingyue was slightly stunned and took another look. It was only when soone called out to her in front that she hurriedly followed.
However, her mind was still replaying the scene just now. That person was in an intimate position with Boss Gu and was very close to him. The way he looked at Boss Gu was abnormally gentle.
He should be Shao Qingyuan, right?
Was this person the one the royal prince had asked her to seduce?
Thinking of Shao Qingyuan’s face, Zhang Yingyue suddenly felt that he was not that repulsive. At least, he was not the kind of person who was rude and achieved nothing in his fifties. Instead, he was exceptionally elegant and handso, and he had an aura that ordinary people did not have.
Zhang Yingyue took a deep breath and smiled.
Unexpectedly, in the next mont, Nanny Xia’s slightly stern voice sounded in his ear. "Zhang Yingyue, co and take this tray."
Zhang Yingyue suddenly ca back to her senses. When she t Nanny Xia’s penetrating gaze, her body suddenly trembled. She quickly went forward and carried the tray.
Nanny Xia raised her eyelids and led everyone to a room not far away.
This room was specially vacated by Gu Yundong for their lessons. At this mont, i Hong and the others followed Nanny Xia into the room with trays, cups, rags, water, and brooms.
On the other side, Gu Yundong sent Shao Qingyuan out.
Unexpectedly, just as she turned around and was about to return to the courtyard, a carriage drove over.
Gu Yundong looked up and saw Madam Ge coming down.
She was accompanied by an old woman and a maidservant. When she saw Gu Yundong, Madam Ge imdiately brought them over with a smile.
"I’m late. Has Nanny Xia started?"
"It’s not too late. Nanny Xia is about to start," Gu Yundong said with a smile as she welcod Madam Ge in.
Mrs. Ge said, "Can you show ?"
Gu Yundong led them to the prepared room. As soon as they reached the door, they heard Nanny Xia’s low and serious voice. "If you want to be bold, the most important thing is to be confident. You’re people with jobs now. You can earn money yourself. You earn more than the workers in ordinary shops. With money in your hands, you have the right to make decisions at ho and outside. Thinking about it this way, don’t you think you can hold your head high?"
Gu Yundong and Madam Ge looked at each other and could not help but laugh.
That’s right. Nowadays, many won had very low statuses because they did not have money or power.
As long as they could control money or power, they would imdiately be confident enough to speak.
Five taels of silver. Even in the capital, many ordinary people might not be able to earn this money in a month.
Gu Yundong glanced at the old won and maids behind Madam Ge. "Are they the people you found to help at New Tea Pavilion?"
"Yes, Old Madam Gao can help in the kitchen. Her culinary skills are not bad to begin with. Ah Qu will be entertaining guests in the front hall. Both of them are trustworthy people."
As they spoke, the two of them bowed slightly to Gu Yundong. "Greetings, Master Gu."
Gu Yundong smiled and nodded. He reached out and knocked on the door. Nanny Xia’s voice imdiately stopped.
Gu Yundong let them in. "Shopkeeper Xia, I’ll leave them to you."
Nanny Xia glared at her. After letting soone in, she closed the door and locked Gu Yundong and Madam Ge outside.
Gu Yundong shrugged and led Madam Ge to the reception pavilion for tea.
