Chapter 269 My dream is to be a great brothel owner
Tiffany Hsieh is here.
Aunt Xue felt inexplicably relieved.
Xie Tingting came in, wearing the official uniform of a fourth-rank female official. Xie Xiangxiang, Jiang Shuang and Li Tiedan all looked at her, each with different thoughts in their minds.
Tiffany Xie looked at the three of them and rolled her eyes at them all.
"What's the matter? Didn't you go to blackmail Zhou Xiaocheng and the Queen? Why are you here? Have you run out of money?" Xie Tingting wasted no time and looked at Jiang Shuang and said, "What are you doing here?"
Jiang Shuang said awkwardly: "I heard that the embroidery workshop is recruiting embroiderers, I want to apply."
"Oh, so you are looking for a job." Xie Tingting breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you wanted to visit my second uncle to reminisce about the past."
Jiang Shuang's face turned red, and he lowered his head and said, "I, I won't look for him. I want to rely on myself, on myself."
"That's good. Don't hang around my second uncle anymore. You're disgusting. You're not worthy to talk to him now. He's the emperor. Who are you? Right?" Xie Tingting looked at Li Tiedan. "Who are you?"
Seeing Xie Tingting scolding Jiang Shuang while still wearing her official uniform, Li Tiedan no longer dared to say that he was Xie Yanyan's stepfather.
Pointing at Jiang Shuang, he stammered, "I, I am, her man."
"Oh, are you her man?" Tiffany Xie just said this and ignored him.
Turning to ask Xie Xiangxiang: "I thought you would rather die of hunger than eat the food given out of pity."
Xie Xiangxiang smiled and said, "People need to eat to survive. Without food, no matter how great your ambition is, it's all in vain. Now I just hope that you can give me something to eat."
Xie Tingting was very happy to see that she knew the situation, and said almsgivingly: "You are sensible. How about this, if you want to work in the embroidery workshop, you can work with me in the embroidery workshop. We are still short of a small manager, from the eighth rank, with an annual salary of 10 shi of grain and 30 taels of silver. Do you want to do it?"
Xie Xiangxiang was overjoyed. Her annual salary was 10 shi of grain, which was 1,200 kilograms, and she could not finish it.
She still had 30 taels of silver left to buy a small courtyard, and her life was already very good.
"Thank you, sir. I'm willing to do it." She immediately accepted the job.
Li Tiedan immediately poked Jiang Shuang: Come on, Xie Xiangxiang has been appointed as a junior supervisor, hurry up and tell us!
Seeing Xie Tingting taking these people in and giving them positions as officials, Xie Huan got anxious and reminded her, "Tingting, should we discuss these matters again?"
Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan hate these people the most. Is Xie Tingting crazy?
You won't take advantage of Emperor Yan's easy words to keep these people, right?
Who knew that Xie Tingting didn't even look at him. When Xie Huan interrupted her for the third time, she simply said unhappily: "Second brother, what's wrong with you? Why are you making excuses? You're not asking them to work for you. We women should help each other. They are also members of the Xie family. Why don't you promote them but people from outside?"
Xie Huan was so angry that he didn't want to talk anymore.
Aunt Xue didn't dare to say anything, but in her heart she didn't want Xie Xiangxiang and Jiang Shuang to stay. She felt that their eyes were full of calculations, and if they stayed, they would definitely not do anything good.
She said timidly: "Tingting, your second brother is doing this for your own good."
Xie Tingting said unhappily, "What's wrong with you? Forget it, forget it, second brother, you take Aunt Xue away first. I'll talk to my eldest sister and second aunt about the past and how to develop the embroidery workshop."
Xie Huan was unhappy, but he also wanted to take this opportunity to take his aunt away. He had already noticed that Aunt Xue seemed to have thorns all over her body and was very uncomfortable.
After leaving Juxian Building, Aunt Xue said anxiously, "Huan'er, you must think of a solution quickly. We cannot leave these people here. Isn't this disgusting to the Emperor Taishang and Emperor Yan? Tingting is young, she doesn't know what these people are thinking. Jiang Shuang is okay, but Xie Xiangxiang is a venomous snake. Don't look at her humble words. She will definitely do something bad once she gets the chance."
Xie Huan said, "Mom, don't worry about it. No matter what Tingting thinks, I will never let these people stay. Go back first, I will find a way to solve it."
After sending Aunt Xue back to his own house, Xie Huan found a few people, stuffed them with 100 taels of silver, and told them to keep an eye on where Xie Xiangxiang, Jiang Shuang, and Li Tiedan lived at night, and find a chance to take them away, regardless of whether they were dead or alive.
After seeing Xie Huan and Aunt Xue leave, Xie Tingting talked with Xie Xiangxiang and Jiang Shuang about the development of the embroidery workshop, and they were very speculative.
He even said that once the embroidery workshop here is on the right track, Xie Xiangxiang would be arranged to work as a female official in a branch office in another place, and Jiang Shuang and Li Tiedan could also work as officials in the branch office.
Xie Xiangxiang and Jiang Shuang were both very happy. In fact, they didn't want to stay in Xiangyang. They felt a little uncomfortable meeting Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan.
But it’s different in other places. Not only can you become a high-ranking official and reap endless benefits, but you can also stay away from Emperor Yan and the Emperor Taishang, and everyone feels more comfortable.
As they toasted each other, Tiffany Hsieh ordered three bottles of fruit wine for the three of them, saying, "This is a fruit wine that is unique to the Jiuzhou Empire. You can try it. It is not available anywhere else, only in Juxianlou."
The three of them drank it, and it was indeed sour and sweet and quite delicious.
The three men kept flattering Xie Tingting, and Xie Tingting was also very happy. After drinking for a while, she said, "Come to think of it, I used to hate you the most, Xie Xiangxiang. I once thought of killing you. Because of you, my innocence is gone. I can't even get married in this life. How can you be so cruel? You pushed me to the bandits just to get yourself out of trouble!"
Xie Xiangxiang was extremely embarrassed after hearing this and apologized, "Tingting, it wasn't my fault at that time. It was my grandmother and mother who did that, and I couldn't disobey them. But it was indeed my fault. I was too cowardly at that time and didn't stand up. I am sorry for you."
Xie Tingting curled her lips and said, "Oh, you are a coward? You are always so shameless! Look, I am not even seventy or eighty years old, and you can lie to me!"
Xie Xiangxiang burst into tears, pounding her chest and saying, "Tingting, I regret it so much. I deserve whatever you said to me. If I could turn back time, I would definitely risk my life to save you."
Xie Tingting shook her hand: "Hey, what are you talking about? How can time go back? If time could go back, you would probably want to kill Emperor Yan first, right? After all, she was trampled into the mud by you when she was in the Marquis' Mansion, and she was almost sold to Huangfu Ming as the eighteenth concubine by you and your mother. But look, now, she is the empress of the world, the first since ancient times! Are you so jealous that you can't sleep at night?"
Xie Xiangxiang's eyes were blurred with tears. She thought to herself, what is Xie Tingting trying to do? Is she drunk? Weren't we just talking fine? Why did she start swearing?
But it’s okay. She can vent her anger by cursing, and I just have to endure it for now. Only those who are able to bend and stretch can achieve great things.
Xie Tingting looked into her eyes and said wickedly, "Xie Xiangxiang, actually I didn't want to run an embroidery workshop at first, but Yan Di insisted on me doing it. She said I was good at embroidery, thoughtful, and considerate. I wanted to help more women in the world and give them confidence in life. Do you know what I wanted to do at first?"
Xie Xiangxiang shook her head.
"My dream is to be a great brothel owner, riding on colorful clouds and welcoming my first courtesan with gongs and drums beating loudly!"
Xie Tingting laughed out loud, "That courtesan is you!"
