Avi froze, staring incredulously at the smiling Bai Tuan Tuan: "I... I can't..."
Why?
Avi bit her lip hard, took a deep breath, and slowly said, "I am a woman."
"What?! Avi is actually a woman? How is that possible!"
"Yes, it's been so many years, and I didn't even notice!"
"But Manager Li clearly stated that he would not hire women as workers..."
"Why?" Bai Tuantuan looked at the others. "Why not hire women as workers?"
"In Hero Town, men and women are equal. Even the county government has women. Why can't Erdong Restaurant? From the beginning, Erdong Restaurant has never discriminated against women. As long as a woman has the ability, she can naturally become a worker!"
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped, their faces filled with disbelief.
Bai Tuantuan knew there must be something going on.
However, this is not the time to talk about this. Bai Tuantuan looked at Avi, who nodded vigorously: "Yes! I will not let my employer down!"
"Alright, Xiao Lan, you will be the second steward of Er Dong Restaurant."
Bai Tuantuan looked at Xiao Lan, who was very excited.
Avi and Xiaolan exchanged a glance, and they seemed to understand something.
"Tuantuan, now is not the time to talk about this, there are so many people outside..." Mu Yangzhi scratched the back of his head, "What should we do?"
Bai Tuantuan chuckled: "What's there to be afraid of? Look at Ning Nanxiao, is he scared?"
Mu Yangzhi instantly realized: "That's right, if Nan Xiao isn't afraid, why should I be!"
Ning Nanxiao glanced helplessly at Bai Tuantuan, then cupped his hands and said, "Uncle Emperor, please wait a moment. Zhao Quanchun will bring people to maintain order."
He glanced at the time and said, "We can leave in about half a cup of tea's time."
The Emperor frowned and asked, "Leave Hero Town?"
"I'm afraid that won't work." Ning Nanxiao thought for a moment and said slowly, "Uncle Huang knows that the people all know you've come to Hero Town, and the villains naturally know as well. If we leave directly, something might go wrong on the way. How about this..."
As he spoke, Ning Nanxiao approached the Emperor and whispered a few words in his ear.
The Emperor pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Do as you say."
Fifteen minutes later.
Zhao Quanchun's voice could be heard outside, along with a woman's voice.
The emperor looked over in confusion and saw two teams of female soldiers and two teams of male soldiers simultaneously evacuating the civilians.
However, the emperor discovered that when men and women worked together, they were faster than when a man worked alone.
More importantly, if a woman and a man are persuaded separately, the woman will be more effective!
This discovery surprised the emperor: "Why is that?"
Bai Tuantuan smiled: "Because women are meticulous and patient, they are better able to understand what the other party wants and can offer better solutions."
The Emperor seemed to be deep in thought.
Soon, the people outside were evacuated.
Zhao Quanchun walked in and knelt directly before the Emperor: "Your humble servant Zhao Quanchun greets Your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"
"Get up."
After Zhao Quanchun got up, he slowly said, "The carriage is ready, Your Majesty. It is no longer safe here. Just in case, it would be better to go to the county government office."
The Emperor nodded: "Very well, let's go."
Seeing the Emperor's cooperation, Zhao Quanchun breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and bowed to Ning Nanxiao, saying, "Your Highness."
"Lord Zhao, it's been a long time."
Bai Tuantuan looked at Ning Nanxiao with a puzzled expression, but then heard Ning Nanxiao continue, "Lord Zhao, please settle the Emperor first. We can discuss other matters later."
"yes."
Once on the carriage, because there weren't many carriages, several people were crammed into each one.
Cui'er and Old Master Li quickly climbed into the white carriage, while Xiao Ruyan was a step ahead and got into Mu Yangrun's carriage.
Looking at Cui'er and Old Master Li, Bai Tuantuan raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "Let me give you a piece of advice: don't get involved with the royal family."
Cui'er scoffed, "Although you are a princess, I married a prince. I am no less than you!"
"Cui'er, how can you speak like that?" Old Master Li said unhurriedly, then laughed, "After the darkest hour comes the dawn. The master would never have imagined that my Cui'er would have such a great opportunity to become a prince's woman! Hahaha!"
Cui'er also looked proud, raising her chin and saying, "Don't worry, I'm a magnanimous person and won't hold it against you."
"You..." Bai Tuantuan looked at Cui'er and Old Master Li with a complicated expression. Well, ignorance is no excuse.
Bai Tuantuan closed her eyes, deciding not to stoop to their level.
However, Cui'er and Old Master Li thought that Bai Tuantuan was scared. They said one after another, their words sarcastic and mocking, forcing Bai Tuantuan to open her eyes and look at the two of them with a sneer: "I didn't want to say more to you, after all, you'll understand when you get to the capital."
"I'm warning you, don't buzz around in my ear. I'm the kind of person who dares to hit even Mu Yangrun. Do you think I wouldn't dare to touch you?"
"The Emperor has many princes, but he values the Crown Prince the most. What is Mu Yangrun? A fool!"
Cui'er screamed, "How dare you insult the Third Prince!"
"Smack!"
Bai Tuantuan slapped him across the face: "Shut up!"
Cui'er covered her face and looked at Bai Tuantuan in disbelief.
Old Master Li was also stunned, but then he reacted and pointed at Bai Tuantuan, saying, "You just wait! I'm going to find the Third Prince to settle this matter!"
As soon as the carriage stopped, Old Master Li grabbed Cui'er and rushed towards Mu Yangrun.
Old Master Li was certain that Mu Yangrun would stand up for his daughter, but to his surprise, Mu Yangrun gave him a cold look and said, "Go and provoke her? You've got some nerve!"
"Although I don't like Bai Tuantuan, I know she would never provoke you. Since you took the initiative, then you'll have to suffer the consequences yourselves!"
With that, he flicked his long sleeves and quickly walked toward the Emperor.
Xiao Ruyan walked over and glanced at Cui'er: "Bai Tuantuan is indeed not the Emperor's bloodline, but her words carry more weight than those of a prince. Instead of currying favor with her, you offended her. You're really something!"
"However, now that you've had a falling out, you're unlikely to reconcile. I advise you that if you want to return to the capital with the Third Prince, you'd better think of a good way. If Bai Tuantuan says something to the Emperor, your wishful thinking will be in vain."
After saying that, she adjusted the hairpin in her hair and walked towards the county government office.
Cui'er's face turned deathly pale, and she cried out in a trembling voice, "Father, what, what should we do?"
"Don't panic, Father will think it over carefully. Don't worry, Father will make sure you enter the Third Prince's residence in style!"
At this point, a fierce glint appeared in Old Master Li's eyes.
"Let's go in first and keep an eye on Bai Tuantuan. We can't let her talk nonsense!"
