Chapter 101: Sweet-mouthed and Hard-working, Winning People Over with Virtue
Compared with the four concubines, the Imperial Concubine was more low-key. The Emperor would go to her for tea and listen to her playing the piano. In the evening, she would tactfully invite the Emperor to go to other palaces. She seemed to be a magnanimous person and she also repeatedly admonished and taught Princess Zhaoning.
However, the imperial concubine seemed more dissatisfied with Prince Jing, saying that he was not ambitious and should emulate the crown prince more and share the emperor's worries. 】
The system said these words without much emotion, thinking that the imperial concubine was of little value.
[A few days ago, Xue Wanning brought Miss Lu to the palace to meet the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine said that Miss Lu was somewhat similar to herself. She is Miss Lu's aunt, so aren't they somewhat similar?
The Imperial Concubine liked Miss Lu very much and rewarded her with many good things. Miss Lu was so grateful that she told her everything she knew. She told everyone about the tomatoes, and Princess Zhaoning heard it and had evil thoughts. 】
The system finally found the evidence that the information had leaked.
The Queen was chatting and laughing with Old Madam Qin, talking about the Qin family's daughter, but at this moment she narrowed her eyes slightly.
The hosts and guests had a great time. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Qin family said goodbye to the queen and left the palace. The queen smiled and said to Su Qianqian that they would meet again after the Mid-Autumn Festival when Daliang came to pay tribute. She was afraid that she must have missed him a lot these days. Su Qianqian was so moved that she almost cried... but she couldn't hold back the tears.
Su Qianqian took a sedan chair to Xixuan Gate and got out of the palace. She looked like a poor man who had picked up a piece of gold. She proudly held the most precious reward given by the Queen. Beside her was a group of eunuchs holding all kinds of large and small bags.
Qin Hanzhang was already looking forward to it so long that he was almost melted by the thought of missing his wife as he stood beside the carriage. He was afraid that Su Qianqian would suddenly have an idea and cause trouble so that he could rush over to put out the fire.
Seeing Su Qianqian's proud look, he finally felt relieved.
Back at the Marquis' Mansion, no one cared about Su Qianqian's rewards. Qin Yuzhuo's sisters and several ladies were all waiting to watch the show. When they returned to Fushou Hall, Mrs. Du was talking about it with great excitement.
Qin Hanzhang sat quietly on the side, sometimes frowning and sometimes smiling knowingly, a rare occasion in which his emotions were shown on his face.
It was not appropriate to tell Su Qianqian about the news revealed by the system, so Mrs. Du winked at her two sisters-in-law and said that she would find a private opportunity to communicate with them.
The next day was Su Qianqian’s last day of training four middle-level managers.
Cai Meng has been living in the servants' room of the Marquis' Mansion these days and looks much more energetic. Although Mu Tong is young, he is the most flexible and is willing to take the risk to go home and put his ideas into practice.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Su Qianqian tested four people. Cai Meng took the first place with steady performance, Mu Tongsheng came in second for innovation, and the brothers He Sheng and He An were equally matched. Finally, all of them passed.
"You will take on new responsibilities starting tomorrow. Before August 20, you will teach what you have learned to the families of the recruited soldiers. Each of you will be responsible for a team. After the teaching is completed, we will evaluate the points for the teaching."
Su Qianqian guided these four people to transfer training, allowing them to become training instructors for the new sales production model and erase their own traces.
"Each class can earn two taels of silver. Half a month later, the students' performance will be evaluated again, and there will be additional rewards from the highest to the lowest."
The four men's eyes lit up after hearing this, and they secretly competed with each other in their hearts, especially the He Sheng brothers, who wanted to win back this game.
The guest rooms in the outer courtyard of the marquis's mansion were temporarily requisitioned as a school. Manager Zheng brought the recruited soldiers' families and assigned them to four people. At this moment, the four felt that they were both teachers and generals.
Two days later, Su Qianqian took Qin Yuzhuo and her sister to secretly eavesdrop on their lectures. From a distance, they could hear the bustling noises in the flower hall in the outer courtyard.
"There are no guests today, why is it so noisy?" Qin Yuqi was a little curious and a little worried.
Su Qianqian didn't say anything. She was also worried that someone might misunderstand and do something weird.
I walked closer to the hall and hid by the door to look inside. I saw Mu Tong with his sleeves rolled up, standing on a stool and waving his fist at the team members in front of him:
"Our password is..."
"Mu Tong Mu Tong, we will win every battle!"
"Our goal is to..."
"Close the door and beat the dog, don't leave if you don't buy it!"
"Our principles are..."
"Be sweet-mouthed and diligent, and win people over with virtue!"
Su Qianqian: I asked you to imitate, not to surpass. You really understand the essence of training!
"Third sister-in-law, is he going to open a black shop?" Qin Yuzhuo blinked, with anticipation in her eyes.
Looking at the team members again, they were all very excited. A young lady in a patched dress was pulling her five or six-year-old child, and the mother and daughter were waving their fists in unison, as if the effort of this action would determine whether they could live a good life in the future.
"It's an idea, an idea. It's not a black shop, it's not..." Su Qianqian explained weakly.
In the guest room classroom next door, the He Sheng brothers tried hard to stay calm and not team up to beat up Mu Tong. Their teammates all wanted to switch to Mu Tong!
At dinner that evening, Su Qianqian discovered that the Third Master had not returned home again. It had been a few days. However, the Second Master also said that the military camp where the Third Master was located had a lot of affairs recently, so it was normal for him to stay there.
The third master didn't come back, and although his son came back, he was a little uneasy.
[The Fifth Young Master had some doubts about the Fourth Miss Zhuang's affairs that day, so he went to ask his colleagues about Zhu Changshe's affairs.
Colleagues thought that the two of them were on good terms and did not speak out at first. But later, when they saw that the Fifth Young Master was sincere and invited them to a banquet, they began to speak out about Zhu Changshe's character. 】
[The Fifth Master went to work yesterday. As he entered the yamen, he heard Zhu Changshe in the messenger room saying from afar: That girl is eighteen years old and still hasn’t come...
The Fifth Young Master kicked the door open, went in, grabbed Zhu Changshe by the collar, punched him in the face, and cursed: You really are a gossipmonger, talking about girls' affairs everywhere! I'll beat you up, you long-tongued man!
The Fifth Young Master beat Zhu Changshe violently. Zhu Changshe was beaten so badly that he cried: Why are you hitting me? I said I am my aunt's daughter. I am 18 years old and have never been to Xijing. What does it have to do with you? Hahahaha...】The system burst into laughter.
"Pfft..." Su Qianqian couldn't help laughing. This Zhu Changshe had done too many bad things and he got his retribution. He was beaten for just saying a word!
The Qin family members all lowered their heads and laughed secretly, but Qin Hanjin pretended not to hear and quietly got used to being the topic of conversation.
Su Qianqian was busy preparing for the store and the farm. She tried to plant the seeds collected from farmers in the small garden in the space. The grown seedlings were stored in storage boxes to remain in the seedling state. These seedlings had undergone the soil and water improvement of the space.
In the future, these seedlings will be sent to various villages for transplanting in greenhouses.
In addition to using the vegetables produced in these farms, the restaurant will also have some high-end boutique dishes using Su Qianqian's rare vegetables, which will be launched as monopoly dishes.
It was already August 12th, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was three days away. The stewards of the Wuning Marquis' Mansion were all busy.
After worshipping ancestors at the mansion during the Mid-Autumn Festival, there would be a family banquet. After that, servants, except for those who had to be on duty, could take a day off to go home or go out for fun, or they could gather together to drink and have fun.
The third master went to Fushou Hall to pay his respects early in the morning, and then left in a hurry. However, the third lady, Mrs. Meng, was a little worried.
[Poor Third Old Lady, her dowry is almost lost and she dares not say anything! 】
The system sighed after saying this, and all the Qin family members in Fushou Hall were shocked!
