Chapter 357: Private

Ye Jiayao was at leisure for only half a day and then busy the next day.

She couldn’t help it. During her disappearance, there were still many people who were worried. Others could just send a message or something. However, the palace and the Helian mansion must go to report peace in person.

Therefore, Ye Jiayao went to Helian mansion early in the morning to reassure the ancestor and then went to the palace with Yide princess to see the emperor and queen.

This round was the morning when the queen left her and You in the palace for lunch and then left the palace after lunch.

Ye Jiayao proposed a trip to Heavenly Residence, You had no objection. She just wanted several guards from marquis house to follow her, just in case.

Such a thing happened, marquis house’s people traveled very carefully, Ye Jiayao herself did not dare to support the big, follow it! It was a rare occasion to show off.

The brothers in Heavenly Residence knew yesterday that the second lady was out of danger. They thought that the second lady would need rest when she returned, and they did not dare to disturb her. They thought that they would send representatives to see the second lady after two days. But, the second lady came.

Ye Jiayao asked everyone to gather in the lobby and said something together.

“This period of time, I let everybody worry, I heard that you have no mind to learn cooking, looking for me everywhere, was worried that I’m missing, your year-end benefits fell through?” Ye Jiayao laughed.

However, everyone did not laugh, Deng Haichuan and others seemed to have some opinions. Ye Jiayao had a dry cough with two sounds. Well, this conversation was not good, and the ancients were more practical and lacked humor cells.

“Ahem, joking, of course I know everyone cares about me, good brother! let’s see who’s fattening up. Fattening up means he don’t care about the shopkeeper, and I’m going to deduct welfare.”

Cui Dongpeng laughed: “Second lady, A Xing was stung by the bees in the back yard and his face was swollen. Is it fat?”

Everyone laughed at this. Ye Jiayao saw A Xing hiding behind the back, with his head down and his face covered. He was originally a pencil necked man, but now he had become a pig. She couldn’t help laughing, and then she stretched back again, solemnly saying, “Sticking a hornet’s nest is disinfestations for the people, reimbursement of medical expenses, and an additional five taels of silver.”

A Xing buried his face, smiled miserably.

Everyone laughed more loudly.

Ye Jiayao said, “Tomorrow is the New Year’s Eve. Everyone has been working hard for a year and is supposed to invite everyone to have a good meal. However, this is a very special time. We have to be careful to eat a lawsuit for a meal of wine. Let’s let Zhao Steward come over tomorrow morning and give everyone year-end benefits. Let’s tidy up the store and go back for the New Year. On the eighth of the new year, the restaurant will open for business and will come back to learn cooking skills for me. Do you have any comments?”

Everyone said in unison, “No problem.”

Ye Jiayao paused and went on to say: “As for the holidays, the hotel will still send people to keep watch, three days in a round, each time two people, Zhong Xiang, Deng Haichuan, Wang Mingde and Cui Dongpeng, will be responsible for it. As for who will be on duty on which day, you will discuss the matter yourself, and you will not have to arrange for the distant ones at home to rush to the trouble.”

The four men readily responded.

Ye Jiayao just let the crowd disperse, leaving Zhong Xiang and Deng Haichuan and other two to speak upstairs.

“The four of you will study new dishes during the New Year, and when the mourning period is over, Heavenly Residence will launch new products.”

Four people understood that this was to give them a chance to do a good job, a dish became famous, and all of them immediately took their full strength and said their positions in succession, no problem.

What Ye Jiayao wanted was everyone’s drive to catch up with each other. It went without saying that today’s cohesion in Heavenly Residence was unity. What was needed now was to mobilize everyone’s enthusiasm and initiative.

“You should pay more attention to the people who are hardworking and savvy. The key is to be reliable. The more people you train, the better. You will need a lot of effort to open a branch in the future. You are my brothers and elders in the Heavenly Residence. You are trustworthy and can be entrusted with important tasks,” Ye Jiayao said sincerely.

Ye Jiayao’s words let everyone have a bright eye and open a branch? Wasn’t it true that the second lady would send them to open a branch in other places and be the only one?

This was never thought of!

Ye Jiayao watched four people smiling: “Why? No confidence?”

Deng Haichuan gnashed his teeth and held out his chest. “How can we humiliate Second lady if she flatters us?”

Cui Dongpeng also said, “We will do whatever Second lady says.”

Wang Mingde was a little nervous. It was no problem for Second lady to let him take charge of the kitchen, but if he was in charge of a restaurant, he had no confidence. Being in charge of a restaurant was not just a matter of cooking.

Ye Jiayao saw Wang Mingde’s concerns and said with a smile: “No one will ever come to the meeting and dare not challenge before the opportunity, then he will lose ten percent first. However, you can rest assured that my plan is there, it will not be too big for a company to set up all of a sudden.”

Ye Jiayao was planning to open two branches in April and May in Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Zhong Xiang said, “I dare not say anything that will do. In short, we will try our best.”

Ye Jiayao nodded. It was up to people to plan things.

When she came back from Heavenly Residence, she heard Xiangtao said that both the shopkeeper Duan and Lin of the chamber of commerce had been here. They knew she had entered the palace, went back first and said it was nothing. As long as she came back, it was ok.

There was also a self-proclaimed Mu Qinchu, who arrived in the morning and was still waiting in the slant hall. He must see you.

Ye Jiayao’s eyebrows puckered. She hadn’t remembered the Mu’s family affair for many days.

Speaking, Ye Jiayao won’t do the same thing when she took advantage of Mu’s family to kick down the ladder, so she went to the slant hall to see Mu Qinchu.

Mu Qinchu was losing patience, but he couldn’t just go back. He could only sit and wait.

At last he saw Second lady, Mu Qinchu got up and saluted.

“Second lady.”

Ye Jiayao took a seat: “Is your mother in better health?”

Mu Qinchu respectfully replied, “With the blessing of Second lady, my mother’s body is much better. Today I came here specially to see Second lady on orders from my mother.”

Ye Jiayao smiled and said nothing.

Mu Qinchu said: “Thanks to the second lady’s plan, my father’s case was reiterated, the merit was compensated, the sentence was lenient, and my mother decided to go to Xiangxi. As a result, the second lady said about opening a branch Heavenly Residence …”

Ye Jiayao understood that this was for money. The family went to Xiangxi to take root. It was not good to have no money. She had to keep her promise.

“Since this branch can’t be opened, I can’t mistreat you, so, I’ll give you two thousand taels. When will you start?”

Mu Qinchu felt that the two thousand taels were not enough. Although they were encouraged by the second lady to turn over the case, it was the Mu family who finally got the real benefits. Otherwise, his father exiled to Mobei to do hard labor, and the family could hardly get together again, so he was embarrassed to say too few.

“Father will not be sent out until after 15.”

“Yes, I could have given you a silver ticket now. However, the situation of Datong Hui is not clear now. If you don’t mind, you will come to me after the eighth day. If the silver ticket of Datong Hui doesn’t work at that time, I’ll give you a silver ticket from another Silver Village.” Ye Jiayao said.

Mu Qinchu repeatedly praised and did not dare to disagree.

Ye Jiayao also ordered Qiao Xi to fetch one hundred and twenty taels of silver to Mu Qinchu: “Take these first, not counting in two thousand taels, and it will soon be New Year’s Day, adding some winter clothes to the family. I will ask someone to look for the relationship in Xiangxi, and when your father arrives there, he will be free from hard labor.”

Mu Qinchu was so happy; this was how much money all can’t change!

Thanked again, this time thanks were sincere.

After sending Mu Qinchu, Ye Jiayao was about to take a break when Chunfeng came, saying Zuo Qingyun wanted to talk to her, and his father and Little Jing were over there.

On the way, chunfeng said to her, roughly speaking, there was no way to convict Zuo Qingyun. It had been delayed and afraid of problems, and even could not be reported. Without solid evidence, they pointed finger at Rongguo mansion and King Yu, but instead falls on the charge of framing a prince.

It was Zuo Qingyun who put forward his own proposal for privacy, but it was a grandiose statement. What happened was caused by his untimely rule and unknown knowledge. He was responsible and willing to give some compensation. The duke wanted to hear what she meant.

Ye Jiayao thought that since they couldn’t charge him, then knock hard on a sum of money. The most important thing for Datong Hui was money anyway.

When she arrived at Dali Temple, she did not meet in prison, but in the reception room of Chunfeng.

Five people sat down.

Zuo Qingyun pleaded guilty and offered to compensate Jing ‘an marquis house for his mistake.

When the duke and others heard this number, they all surprised, and it was a million taels.

Zuo Qingyun looked at the reaction of all the people with a faint look, and was sure in his heart that in the present situation they could not take him. One million taels was only to give each other a step down to calm things down.

Ye Jiayao was scornful and said, “Although I’m not as capable as the shopkeeper Zuo, I can’t compare with the shopkeeper Zuo who fights for money every day, but I’m not poor, one million taels, and I really don’t think much of it. Besides, marquis house’s reputation is worth the money?”

Hearing this, the duke chimed in: “Even if we don’t lack the money in Jing’ an marquis house, we are tied up in broad daylight. Isn’t this hitting my face? Yes, we can’t tolerate.”

” Also, in order to find me, the mansion, the King’s mansion, and all my friends and brothers left their jobs and searched for me, who should compensate for their losses? Me?” Ye Jiayao said calmly.

Zuo Qingyun’s face darkened and he thought it would be easy to solve the problem if he threw out a million taels. But this Ye Jinxuan had a very big heart. This was to take advantage of his blood, and this woman was too good at grasping the opportunity.
