Chapter 679: Everyone Thought She Was a Deity

Laosan said, and everyone realized there were many people around them.Especially Jia Yin, she should be confined in the palace right now. If anyone saw her, there would be another scandal.Jia Ren invi...Jia Yin had explained everything that needed to be explained, so she selected a few snacks that Baozhu liked and asked Shui Ling to deliver them.

Then she also brought a box and went to the Marquis's mansion accompanied by He Ma Ma.

After a sumptuous lunch at the Hou Mansion, Jia Yin listened to the steward drone on about recent social activities in the mansion until the sun started to set. Then, she returned to Xincun.

The village head had been waiting at home all along, along with several village women. They were sitting and chatting idly with Old Li and Tao Hongying.

Upon seeing Jia Yin's return, everyone stood up and bowed.

Li Lao held her granddaughter, feeling her cloak and finding it dry. Relieved that she wasn't cold, she set the child down.

Tao Hongying found a big mug her best friend liked, filled it with hot water, and handed it to her friend, saying "Warm your tummy and your hands."

After all this commotion, several women in the village who had a lot of grievances to air, became even more well-behaved and dared not speak freely.

The village head began, "Lady of the County, the people you requested have been found. There are eight in total, seven maids and one young boy. They're all from our village, and trustworthy."

Jia Yin smiled and thanked them, then glanced at the group of women and said, “Please tell these villagers from Village Head that I’ve come to the tea shop to learn the trade.”

"The shop provides food, clothing and housing. The monthly wage is 200 wen. After half a year, if you have learned your craft, you can go to other places to open branches. Your wages will be increased according to your work and you will definitely not be treated unfairly."

Of course, if anyone slacks off or plays tricks, or does something wrong to harm the shop, they will definitely be driven back.

The village head nodded and replied, “That’s only right. You eat at the shop, drink at the shop, learn a trade, and still get paid. Wherever you go, you're getting a great deal.”

"You know, back then, when you apprenticed for someone, you worked for three years without pay, doing hard labor, and you still might not learn anything useful..."

Those few women felt reassured and happily chimed in their agreement.

"Rest assured, my lady. If my servant girl disobeys, just punish her."

"Yes, let them work harder and learn. There's no learning without hardship."

"My boy at home, he's quite a glutton, Your Highness, please bear with him. But once he's had his fill, he works diligently and never shirks."

Tao Hongying usually walked around the village, familiar with these women. She laughed and said: "Look at what you're saying, they are all your own children, more reliable than outsiders."

As long as the children are obedient, there will be no problems.

"Those cakes and snacks among the white clouds are much easier to make than traditional sweets. Don't worry about it, by this time next year, you might all be wealthy merchant wives."

Where is a mother who doesn't hope her children will succeed!

All the women were delighted and couldn't help but laugh.

That settles it.

The next day, Jia Yin ran to the city again and sent these eight girls to the shop.

Although they were inexperienced, the farm children were hardworking and obedient. They did whatever Mr. Peng told them to do and helped out quite a bit.

The original master and assistants in the shop breathed a sigh of relief.

These half-grown kids are from Dongjia Village themselves, and they can be considered direct descendants.

In the future, it's even more important to open branches and expand. This way, we won't take away their benefits while also sharing the workload.

So, no one would bully these half-grown kids.

Jia Yin looked at it for most of the day and saw no problems, so she went home...

With the addition of new recruits, the White Cloud Inn was thriving and booming more than ever.

But the Third Princess was not so happy!

Actually, the shop bestowed by the emperor naturally wouldn't be too shabby.

Although located in the southern part of the city, it lacks the bustling vibrancy of a commercial street.

But because the people living in southern city are officials and wealthy merchants, who all have silver at home, doing business here is also profitable.

Especially for pastries like cakes, which are novel and expensive, if managed well, they could be even more prosperous than clouds in the sky.

Unfortunately, the third princess's heart and mind were set on taking Bai Yunjian for herself.

Even if you gave her a palace now, she wouldn't be happy.

This shop was originally a embroidery workshop. The downstairs sold fabrics, and the upstairs housed embroiderers making a living.

The layout is definitely not as good as the one specifically designed in Baiyun's space, which is decorated so elegantly and cleanly.

The Third Princess looked more and more annoyed. She simply called Bao Lei over and ordered, "I'm leaving this to you! You're in charge of tidying this up. The grand opening is in three days!"

Bao Lei was startled and wanted to decline, but Princess Three had already strutted away with her nanny.

Bao Lei hated him to her core, wishing she could just strangle this idiot. She was truly losing her patience being with such a fool.

All the fabrics and supplies from Xiu Zhuang were moved out, leaving behind only an empty shell.

If she has no silver, and no one to help her, how can she possibly transform this place into something like a cloud-filled sky within three days!

When she was a fairy descending to Earth, could she have anything she wanted just by blowing on it

But no matter how she scolded him, he was impossible to chase into the palace. Helpless, she could only return home.

As a result, as soon as she entered the main courtyard of the Princess's mansion, she walked face-to-face with her father.

She quickly stepped aside and bowed, saying, "Father, are you well"

Unfortunately, her father Bao Xinde was too lazy to even glance at her and rushed out the door.

Bao Lei was filled with fury and growing alarm.

Although it was just a fleeting glance, my father seemed thinner than before, his complexion as pale as if possessed by a ghost...

She had something on her mind and originally wanted to ask her grandmother more when she saw her.

But Grandma, her eyes bloodshot, was stuffing a rosewood box into the cupboard, and in that instant she understood everything.

That box, which held all the land deeds for the family estates, was rarely opened. But over the past year or two, she had seen it several times.

Needless to say, the house is going to be sold again and the money will be given to my father to squander!

The eldest princess, unwilling to lose face in front of her granddaughter, forced a smile and asked, “You accompanied the third princess to look at shops, how was it”

Bao Lei explained the situation of the shop and added, "The Third Princess only told me to tidy up the shop and then didn't give any silver or manpower before returning to the palace. And she requested that the shop be open in three days!"

The eldest princess frowned, also dissatisfied, and muttered in a low voice: "This stupid thing, is his brain carved from stone"

But after scolding her, she thought about it and then took out fifty taels of silver notes for her granddaughter.

"You take some people from our house to clean the shop, and then with this silver, find a carpenter to build some wooden frames. Just put them in the shop."

As for the shopkeeper and his clerk, since the Third Princess hasn't mentioned it, let's just replace them with our own people. It will be more convenient this way.

Holding the silver note, Bao Lei half-lowered her eyes, a mockery evident in her gaze.

Everyone treats her like a goddess, even the Third Princess and even her own grandmother act this way.

This day, this home, it's really better off without it!

This time, with the opening of the Baiyun Interan branch, I must find a way to get my hands on their recipe and then disappear!

Leave this place, which is shiny on the outside but rotten to the core!

Having made up her mind, Bao Lei went to the new shop the next day with several young servants and two maids from the house.

Just clean it up, make a few simple wooden frames, and you're done.

Three days later, she took people to Baiyun Guan early in the morning.es is a bad habit! Actually, if you think about it carefully, decades from now, parents and elders will pass away, and children will grow up and have families of their own.The only ones who accompany...
