Chapter 1125: Chapter 1131: You guys are a bit noisy
Qiao Duo’er lowered her voice, "It was me who had Chao Lian draw up the booklet. This time I’ve also brought Rui Rui’s portion. The content is very simple, you can definitely understand it, and even if you can’t, it will at least keep you quiet."
Otherwise, it wouldn’t be impossible for the three of them to demolish the house.
Chen Yiling gave a thumbs-up; this was indeed a solution.
"Mom, foster mom, you are being very loud," Green Group complained with a pout.
Couldn’t they just let them read in peace? Instead, they were whispering on the side.
Qiao Duo’er readily agreed, "Then you all read nicely; we’ll step outside."
After being chased out of the study, Qiao Duo’er noticed there was still plenty of time, so she suggested, "Let’s not talk about those annoying matters. I’ll go check on the shop, want to come with?"
"Of course, I’ll come along," Chen Yiling nodded without hesitation.
Anything to avoid going home and facing those shameless creatures of Prince Liang.
As for leaving the three children, having Ping’er and Ruyi to watch them was enough. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Ji Xiang and Ruyi were the maids Chen Yiling had carefully selected for her. Although they were only seventeen or eighteen years old, they were very composed and trustworthy.
The distance from Duo’er’s living quarters to the shop was just a short walk, around the time it takes to burn a stick of incense. Qiao Duo’er and Chen Yiling chatted as they leisurely made their way there.
Soon, they arrived in front of the shop.
Chen Yiling raised her thumb in admiration, "Your speed is impressive. It’s only been a couple of days, and you’ve already stripped down the building?"
"Demolishing buildings is actually the quick part, one day is enough. It’s what comes after that’s troublesome," Qiao Duo’er admitted.
Especially the later stages of renovation; that’s the most exhausting time.
Chen Yiling nodded, "But the workers Ah Hong hired are plenty, and it won’t take much time. In a few days, when I seize the opportunity during Lord Qin’s birthday banquet, I’ll invite the ladies and misses from the different households in the mansion city."
She had deliberately waited for Qiao Duo’er, which is why she pushed the banquet so late.
Otherwise, as soon as Qin Longyun took office, she would have already familiarized herself with the family members of other officials.
"Then I must thank you in advance," Qiao Duo’er said with a ceremonious bow.
The previous opening of Duo Meifang went very smoothly because the branch was near White Stone County, and people knew of Duo Meifang’s reputation.
However, Mansion City was different; it was far from White Stone Town, and few people here knew of Duo Meifang.
Aside from advertising at the banquet, she also planned to distribute trial packs at the entrance of Duo Meifang.
With good word-of-mouth, future business would be easier to do.
Seeing his daughter-in-law, Tan Zhenghong quickly put aside his work.
"How come I don’t see the three children?" Tan Zhenghong asked, puzzled.
"The three kids are reading in the study. They felt we were disturbing them, so we came out for a walk," Qiao Duo’er explained.
Tan Zhenghong frowned and said, "When I get back, I’m going to deal with those little rascals. They even dared to bully my daughter-in-law while I wasn’t home."
He had understood it as the children driving his daughter-in-law out of the study.
Qiao Duo’er pursed her lips, "You better get back to your work, and Yi Ling and I will just browse around."
"Be careful of the broken bricks and tiles on the ground," Tan Zhenghong cautioned before returning to his own tasks.
This time he was really fortunate; as soon as he arrived in Mansion City, he saw a house that had been recently built, with both design and quality that were very good.
He had hired the workers exactly as they were, not expecting everything to go so quickly, which is why there were still many things he had not prepared for.
Fortunately, this wasn’t his first time building a house. He had some idea of what to do and managed not to be completely flustered.
