Li Shuheng had already learned the whole story when he arrived.
He was unaware of the estate's affairs and thought his father was now the accountant at Weimanzhai.
He thought that the other party was willing to hire him even though they knew about his father's situation, and even tried to overturn his case.
Li Shuheng was filled with gratitude towards this young employer.
"Li Shuheng is very grateful for your help today. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask. I will do my best to help you as long as it is within my power."
Yun Zhiyi smiled and said, "It's nothing. Since you and your son have met, Mr. Li, please stay here and return to your village on your own."
"Okay, thank you very much, boss."
After giving her instructions, Yun Zhiyi led the remaining two people onto the carriage and headed to the restaurant.
Li Kui immediately took the driver's seat, making it clear that he was going to be the driver today.
Yun Zhiyi didn't argue with him and got into the carriage with Lu Jingyi.
In the car, Lu Jingyi sighed deeply and cupped his hands in greeting.
“Master, today’s events are my fault; I was not prepared beforehand.”
Yun Zhiyi turned her head to look at him and smiled, "Mr. Lu, why should you belittle yourself? Who can predict unexpected events? But you handled things quite well today. Even without any follow-up, you could have resolved this matter, couldn't you?"
Lu Jingyi smiled bitterly, "Not even half as good as the master's."
He prided himself on his abilities, but now he realized he was far inferior to the woman before him, who was less than half his age.
The fact that the culprit was brought down in such a short time clearly indicates that preparations were made in advance.
Since preparations have already been made, it means that the estimates have also been taken into account.
It's not just about responding to each move as it comes.
Today's achievement is more than just killing three birds with one stone.
He glanced back at Li Kui, who was driving, and then at the crowd around him.
With just this one move, he has won the hearts of countless people.
But he was also upright and honest, which made people willingly admire him.
Lu Jingyi felt it was a bit of a pity.
Such a person should not end up in the countryside.
Yun Zhiyi smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, you flatter me. However, the restaurant will still need your help in the future."
Lu Jingyi took a deep breath. "Don't worry, boss."
At this moment, a hint of seriousness and determination appeared in his eyes.
Clearly, he is also among those whose hearts have been won over today.
His gaze couldn't help but fall on the woman sitting there.
Despite her slender figure, she exudes a sense of peace and security; she is truly an amazing person.
The fact that the Earl's family chose fish eyes over pearls is absurd; it's hard to say whether to call it stupidity or sheer folly.
Everyone else in the restaurant was indeed extremely anxious at this moment.
Or rather, his mental state was on the verge of collapse.
They were all startled when they heard the noise.
I thought the yamen runners had come to arrest someone.
He stood up in surprise only after recognizing the people in their names.
Yun Zhiyi spoke up before anyone could react.
"The matter is settled today. The manager of Fukang Restaurant, who was framed by the restaurant, is now in jail, and our restaurant has received compensation."
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned for a few moments before their hearts relaxed.
Some of the more timid ones couldn't help but sob.
Clearly, they had endured immense suffering during those few hours.
Yun Zhiyi said, "Everyone did a great job today. You can tidy up and go home later. You can come back and open the shop as usual tomorrow."
As she spoke, she looked at Lu Jingyi and said, "Everyone was frightened today. Later, each of you will receive one hundred coins as a reward to calm your nerves. In addition, some of the food consumed today will also be distributed to everyone."
Upon hearing that there was money to be made, everyone was both astonished and delighted.
Suddenly it didn't seem so bad anymore.
Lu Jingyi nodded and smiled, "Alright, everyone, let's get ready and go home as soon as possible."
"Yes! Thank you, boss!"
Everyone instantly recovered and immediately got to work.
Looking at the small pile of orchids placed on the table, Lu Jingyi felt an overwhelming pang of heartache.
"Master, could you give me these orchids? I'll try to save them in my backyard."
Yun Zhiyi nodded, somewhat amused.
"I'll have someone come and fix it up later. You can go back once you're done."
She gave one last instruction and went up to the third floor to look at the account books.
After everyone left, he went downstairs, used his supernatural abilities to repair the vine wall, and placed new pots and cups on it.
This time, I used bergamot, which has a calming effect.
After dealing with all this, she left the restaurant and drove her carriage back to the manor.
——
The capital city, the residence of the Marquis of Anyuan.
Wen Wan was frowning, her head bowed as she embroidered.
However, she lacked talent in this area and couldn't concentrate, so the embroidery she produced was terrible.
Frustrated, she threw down the silver needles, picked up the scissors, and fiercely slashed a line across the embroidery cloth.
"What's the use of learning these things all day long? Once I marry into the household and become the mistress of the house, I won't need to do these things anymore!"
The newly assigned maidservant shrank back and could only offer a quiet reminder.
"Miss, Madam said she wants to investigate tomorrow."
Although she pretended to be sick and played the victim to stay on.
However, the Earl of Anyuan no longer treats her the same way he used to, and he even instructed Cen to teach her strictly.
Although Cen was somewhat understanding of her actions in some respects because of this incident, she was still somewhat dissatisfied with them.
She doesn't need her husband to emphasize it; he will teach her well on his own to prevent her from making a fool of herself after she gets married.
Therefore, she has been kept under strict control and disciplined during this period.
During the day, they not only had to read and practice writing, learn women's books and etiquette, but also had to learn needlework in their spare time.
I don't need to be outstanding, but at least presentable.
Unfortunately, Wenwan was only interested in climbing the social ladder and reaping the benefits without effort, so she had no interest in learning.
He was in a bad mood and, upon hearing this, threw the scissors at the maid.
"How dare you! How dare you presume to speak to me like this?"
"Please forgive me, Miss; it was my fault for being so talkative."
Ignoring the bloody scratch on her hand, the maidservant quickly knelt down and slapped herself.
