Chapter 914: This is the contrast
"Miss, the Third Prince is coming."
As Shi Liu spoke, Xuanyuan Jin walked in.
He first nodded at Su Laowu, then looked at Tang Bao.
"Are you awake? Let's go eat." Xuanyuan Jin looked at the little girl, and his eyes couldn't help but soften.
"Okay!" Tang Bao immediately ran towards Xuanyuan Jin and asked excitedly, "Where are we going to eat? Are we going to my parents' place?"
"Well, I ordered a table from the restaurant to welcome my uncle and aunt..."
Xuanyuan Jin said this and reached out to straighten the palace flower on Tang Bao's head.
Then I felt dissatisfied, so I took it off and tried to put it back on.
But he continued, "There's the silver thread fish you like. Try it and see how it differs from what Auntie Pang usually makes. If you like it, I'll ask someone to get the recipe and have Auntie Pang make it for you later..."
Tang Bao was shocked.
There are silver thread fish in Beijing at this season?
Wouldn’t this one be sold at a sky-high price?
No, no... You asked for the recipe and you said it so casually...
An expression that was difficult to describe appeared on Tang Bao's little face.
The local tyrant and bully temperament of the young man is becoming more and more obvious.
Xuanyuan Jin finally pinned the red palace flower in a position that satisfied him.
He took a step back and looked at it carefully.
Well, not bad.
The little girl looks even more beautiful and lovely.
Xuanyuan Jin was satisfied, then he took Tang Bao's hand and turned to walk out.
"Let's go quickly, it will be cold soon." Xuanyuan Jin said.
When Tang Bao heard this, she immediately put aside the idea that her little brother was growing crooked.
"Yes, yes, hurry up, it won't taste good if it gets cold..."
Tang Bao spoke quickly, more anxiously than Xuanyuan Jin, and pulled Xuanyuan Jin and ran.
You know, if you can’t eat a fish that costs a fortune when it’s at its best in appearance, aroma and taste, it would be a waste of food!
Su Laowu: “…”
It seems that my sister forgot about her biological brother when she saw the Third Prince.
Moreover, just now, the two of them were talking while wearing flowers...
Isn't this the scene that I imagine in my mind after I marry the princess?
Why are my sister and the Third Prince so casual and natural when they do it, as if they have done it thousands of times...
Xuanyuan Jin turned around and looked at Su Laowu.
"Fifth brother, let's go together." Xuanyuan Jin said.
Su Laowu: “…Oh.”
As an older brother, could he scold the Third Prince and ask him to let go of his sister's hand?
However, when my sister went to eat, she didn't even think of calling me, so it was the Third Prince who called me...
Su Laowu was sad.
Shi Liu looked at Su Laowu sympathetically and began to defend her young lady, "The young lady must be hungry, and she hasn't eaten silver thread fish in the past few months, so..." She forgot about you, her brother.
Su Laowu felt even more sad.
So, his own brother is not even as good as a fish?
**
After breakfast the next day, Tang Bao finally had time to meet the servants in the princess's mansion.
"Sister Pomegranate, go and tell the managers to come here."
Tang Bao said, picking up the roster.
Such a large mansion must have a lot of servants.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to take care of it.
Although I was mentally prepared, I was still shocked when I saw the number of people on the roster.
Could it be that...she will have to pay salaries to so many people in the future?
Tang Bao felt a little pain in her purse.
After hearing what Tang Bao said, Shi Liu agreed and walked out quickly.
When I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I ran into Xuanyuan Jin.
Behind Xuanyuan Jin were two maids, several old women, and several stewards from the outer courtyard.
"Third Prince!" Shi Liu quickly knelt down and saluted.
Xuanyuan Jin nodded and asked, "Is the young lady in the room?"
"Yes, the young lady is instructing me to summon the steward of the mansion." Shi Liu replied.
"No need, just gather everyone in the yard." Xuanyuan Jin ordered.
"Yes." Shi Liu quickly agreed.
I knew in my heart that the Third Prince had brought the person here directly.
As expected, the Third Prince has thought of everything for the young lady.
However, the Third Prince himself is not very old, how could he understand these matters in the harem?
Could it be that he went to learn it specifically because of the young lady?
Is it possible?
Shi Liu couldn't help but secretly glance at Xuanyuan Jin, and suddenly three words appeared in her mind - housekeeper.
A chill came over her, and Shi Liu quickly shook her head, separating the three words from Xuanyuan Jin.
Soon, all the maids and servants in Tang Bao's yard, as well as the stewards brought by Xuanyuan Jin, lined up in the yard.
Xuanyuan Jin took Tang Bao's cloak very naturally.
"Have you memorized the roster?" Xuanyuan Jin asked as he tied Tang Bao's cloak.
"I remember."
Tang Bao answered while lowering her head and told Xuanyuan Jin not to forget to take her hair out from under the cloak.
Shi Liu watched from the side and felt that as long as the Third Prince was around, she, the maidservant, was just a fake.
"The two maids are from the palace," Xuanyuan Jin said. "One is from the Empress Dowager's palace, her surname is Liu, and the other is a maid in the palace, specializing in teaching the palace maids etiquette, her surname is Zhang... I selected these people one by one, and the Empress Dowager has also reviewed them. You will observe them for a while. If you think they are useful, you can keep them. If you think they are not useful, you can send them away..."
Xuanyuan Jin said this, reached out and gently took Tang Bao's hair that was scattered behind her head and took it out from under the cloak.
He continued, "After a while, when you are more familiar with the capital, I will ask the officials to come over and buy some people with clean family backgrounds..."
When Tang Bao heard that there was still more to buy, she quickly said, "No, these people are enough. There are not many masters in the mansion, so we don't need too many people."
To be honest, she didn't think it was necessary.
You know, when she was in Daliushu Village, she would occasionally collect grass for pigs.
After listening to Tang Bao's words, Xuanyuan Jin did not insist.
He also doesn't like too many people in the house.
Although this is not his mansion, in his heart, it is just like his mansion.
What's more, this was arranged by him.
Tang Bao and Xuanyuan Jin got dressed and left the house.
With Prince Xuanyuan Jin in charge, naturally no one dared to look down on Tang Bao, the little princess from the countryside.
Tang Bao identified everyone and finally assigned them. Madam Liu was to be the managing nanny of the inner courtyard, and Madam Zhang was to be responsible for teaching the servants the rules.
As for the several managers in the outer courtyard, arrangements were made according to their expertise.
Finally, Tang Bao, following Xuanyuan Jin's eye signal, uttered a few harsh words.
"There aren't many rules in the Princess's Mansion, but this Princess hates those who pretend to obey but actually disobey. If anyone dares to betray their parents and harbor evil intentions, don't blame this Princess for being ruthless!"
Tang Bao held her delicate little face in a tense tone as she spoke seriously, trying hard to make her voice sound particularly powerful and majestic.
However, her voice was clear and sweet, like the song of a lark, but to people's ears, its momentum was greatly reduced.
"We dare not!" All the servants bowed in unison.
Xuanyuan Jin was very dissatisfied with Tang Bao's harsh words.
"Anyone who dares to be disloyal to the princess will be beaten to death and his body will be dragged out to feed the dogs!" Xuanyuan Jin said coldly.
Simple and cruel!
The voice was so cold that it made ice chips fall off.
“Plop!”, “Plop!”…
All the servants knelt down in unison.
"This servant swears to be loyal to the princess until death!"
Tang Bao: “…”
This is the contrast!
Tang Bao was sighing when Xuanyuan Jin looked at her.
Tang Bao: “…”
What are you doing?
Oh, I see, sweet dates.
"Everyone, get up." Tang Bao said generously, "Everyone will receive a monthly salary this month."
"Thank you, Princess!"
There was obvious surprise and gratitude in the unanimous voices.
Tangbao was also grateful, grateful that the little brother had thought of everything.
Given the little brother's personality, if it weren't for his own relationship, he would definitely not care about these trivial matters.
Moreover, I definitely don’t understand these things.
How could Tang Bao not know that this must have been learned specially by Xuanyuan Jin?
I have to say, using the brain used to study state governance to learn these things is really a waste of talent!
Tang Bao sent the man away, looked at Xuanyuan Jin, and said, "Brother, are you busy today?"
"No rush, I'll take you to familiarize yourself with the mansion today." Xuanyuan Jin said.
Tang Bao immediately smiled.
She originally wanted to take her little brother for a walk around the mansion.
She had not forgotten the look in her uncle the emperor's eyes as he entrusted her with the care of his son before his death.
