Chapter 607 Reunion
Jiang Ning closed the ledger and looked at Lu's mother approvingly, saying, "Business is so busy, you must all be working hard. You should take a break and rest for a couple of days."
Madam Lu said, "Your Highness, our business is so good, why take a break? Making money is the most important thing!"
Chunxue and the others were all in high spirits and full of energy.
“Aunt Lu is right. When we’re working, we feel so enthusiastic and full of energy that we don’t need to rest at all.”
In addition to the high bonuses and monthly allowances, Jiang Ning also implemented a commission system for them.
They receive a commission on every lipstick or skincare product they sell, and this commission can add up to a much higher amount than their original monthly salary.
Smart people know that the harder you work, the more you gain!
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Health is the most important thing. How about this, everyone go to the Lingwang Mansion for dinner tonight, and tomorrow we'll go to the suburbs for team building. Everyone can rest and relax for a day. I'll cover all the expenses."
"Thank you, Your Highness! Your Highness is truly magnificent!"
"Since the princess says we should rest, then we'll take a day off and close the shop tomorrow."
Mrs. Lu and the others were very happy.
To encounter such a considerate master is a rare and fortunate thing.
She immediately wrote a sign and hung it up, explaining the reason why Yunxia Tower would be closed for the next day, so that the customers coming and going would not leave empty-handed.
That evening, Jiang Ning brought Lu's mother and others back to the Ling Prince's Mansion for a reunion.
Butler Lan loved lively gatherings and immediately ordered people to buy and prepare the food.
Jiang Ning even personally took charge, preparing hot pot and barbecue.
That evening, a banquet was held in the courtyard of the Prince Ling's residence.
Yuwen Jue and Jiang Ning sat at the head of the table, with Xiao Bao sitting beside them. The others sat casually, creating a lively atmosphere.
Madam Lu and the others were somewhat reserved, glancing at Jiang Ning and Yuwen Jue from time to time, and taking in the magnificent Lingwang Mansion.
Although they followed Jiang Ning, they always lived in the Jiang residence and rarely came here.
Moreover, they came from humble backgrounds and knew nothing of etiquette, so they were afraid of violating the rules of the Ling Prince's Mansion and displeasing Prince Yuwen Jue, the War God of War...
Jiang Ning noticed the worries of Madam Lu and the others, and said with a smile, "Madam Lu, just treat this place as the Jiang residence. There aren't so many rules in the Ling Prince's mansion."
Madam Lu smiled gratefully and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Your Highness."
Despite this, she was still quite reserved. Xia He had been staying at the Ling Prince's residence for several days and was now quite comfortable. She said with a smile, "Mother Lu and my sisters, His Highness the Ling Prince is actually a very easy person to get along with. As long as you don't betray the Prince or the Princess, or break the law, he won't do anything to you."
Mrs. Lu and the others were finally relieved. Butler Lan had some food and wine served, and Jiang Ning said, "Everyone, please eat. Don't be shy. We've finally managed to get together. Be relaxed and comfortable."
Everyone readily agreed.
After a few drinks, the atmosphere gradually improved.
Tonight's meal was specially prepared by Jiang Ning: beef hot pot, mutton hot pot, and various barbecue dishes.
As the saying goes, barbecue goes well with alcohol, and the more you drink, the better. With hot pot, vegetables, and other dishes, everyone ate with great relish and happiness.
Zhui Feng ate with gusto, his mouth greasy, and chuckled, "Your Highness, this hot pot is truly delicious!"
"When winter comes and it gets cold, everyone can gather around the stove, light a fire, and eat hot pot. Wouldn't that be wonderful?"
Zhu Yue also looked longingly at the words: "Just thinking about it makes me feel happy."
The afterimage was enjoying the meal. "Hehe, I heard this way of eating is very popular in Sichuan. I didn't expect the princess to be able to make this base sauce. Let us try it too!"
Although they fought battles year after year, they mostly stayed in the Western Regions and Xihao, rarely going to the south, so they knew very little about the food there.
Although Jiang Ning had never left the capital, she was extremely familiar with cuisines from all over the country, and she was able to cook this steaming hot pot dish so deliciously.
Zhui Feng looked at Jiang Ning with boundless admiration, his eyes sparkling.
"Now, everyone in the capital is saying that the Princess is a goddess. In my opinion, the Princess is indeed a goddess without a doubt!"
Even before going to Yunshui City, the prince suspected that the princess was a divine revealer.
At the time, he still had some doubts... but now it seems that the one who received the divine revelation is none other than Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying, "There are many different opinions in the capital now. Whether she is a goddess or a demoness, future generations will have their own judgment."
When she executed Jiang Baoqing at the execution ground, Xuanxu instigated people to cause trouble.
Many ignorant people in the capital suspected that she was a living witch.
These past few days, the sorcerer Xuanxu has been executed, and Emperor Ming has ordered his body to be hung in the execution ground to be exposed to the sun as a warning to others.
Many people then realized that Jiang Ning was not a demoness, but had been framed by the Taoist priest Xuanxu.
However, some people became increasingly frightened, feeling that Jiang Ning, who could even kill the Imperial Advisor, was undoubtedly a witch.
Jiang Ning didn't care about these claims.
There are a thousand different Jiang Nings in a thousand people's eyes, but no matter how others judge her, she is still herself.
She is the one and only Jiang Ning from another world, Xiao Bao's mother, and Yuwen Jue's queen and wife!
She was absolutely certain about this.
She just wanted to be herself, not to care about the rights and wrongs, and even less to silence everyone.
Yuwen Jue raised an eyebrow, looked at her with a determined expression, and placed a piece of tender and delicious beef on her plate.
"No matter what the world says or says, I will always be there for you."
Jiang Ning looked at Yuwen Jue with emotion, a sweet smile spreading across her lips.
Recently, her relationship with Yuwen Jue has grown stronger. The two have gone through countless hardships and obstacles and cherish each other very much.
They know that today is hard-won, and tomorrow is uncertain, so they can only cherish the present.
After a few drinks, Mrs. Lu relaxed.
He raised his wine glass, his bright eyes looking at Yuwen Jue and Jiang Ning.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, I would like to offer you a toast."
Yuwen Jue and Jiang Ning naturally gave her face.
Madam Lu has helped Jiang Ning a lot, always taking care of Yunxia Tower's business, and she has an excellent character.
This kind of person is trustworthy.
Madam Lu took a deep breath, looked at the maids behind her, and said, "Your Highness Prince Ling and Princess Ling, you are of noble status, while we are just ordinary people from the lowest rungs of the capital. It is our honor to have met such a good mistress as the Princess in this life!"
"From this day forward, whatever Your Highness or Princess commands, we will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Yuwen Jue nodded slightly and said in a gentle voice, "Mother Lu, since you are the Princess's people, you are naturally also people of the Ling Prince's Mansion."
"From now on, you and your families will all be under the protection of the Ling Prince's Mansion. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to go to Steward Lan. If he can't solve them, come to me. I will definitely not stand idly by!"
Overjoyed to receive Yuwen Jue's promise, Madam Lu and the others quickly rose and respectfully bowed to Yuwen Jue.
"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Ling, and thank you, Princess Ling."
Everyone says that His Highness Prince Ling is a man of his word and would never break his promise.
With Ling Wang's words, they had a talisman to protect them!
Jiang Ning smiled, her eyes sparkling as she looked at them.
“Aunt Lu, from today onwards, you can choose to live at the Jiang residence or at the Prince’s mansion.”
After a moment's thought, Madam Lu said, "Your Highness, the Jiang residence also needs someone to manage it. I can stay there; it's close to Yunxia Tower, so it'll be convenient to take care of it."
After saying that, she looked at the few maids behind her.
“They are all young and quick-witted. I don’t see any maids in the manor, so why don’t we let the four of them, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter, stay in the manor to take care of them?”
Chunxue and the others agreed with this arrangement.
Jiang Ning nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I happen to have something to entrust to you. The Sixth Princess is currently living in the manor and needs someone to take care of her. Qiu Yue, why don't you go and keep an eye on the Sixth Princess for me? Remember, no matter what, no matter who comes to visit the Sixth Princess, you must refuse them entry."
Qiuyue is calm and composed, and speaks very tactfully. She feels most at ease entrusting this matter to Qiuyue.
