She was touched by the fact that she could stay for half a day more, and her face showed a bit of emotion, “Wang Ye is so kind to me, he can even think of me here. I came to Tunzhou only once, and since I am here, I have to bring some gifts back to my parents and sister-in-law. I will go around Tunzhou with my second brother later.”
Wang Houde was relieved to see this, “I will also go with you and carry your things for you.”
Wen Qi Qi hastily found an excuse to refuse, “Eunuch Wang is also tired from running around with Wang Ye, so I can just have my second brother accompany me.”
Wang Houde smiled, so he did not insist on going along.
“Good, this servant will wait for you at the residence.”
After breakfast, Wen Qi Qi refused Gu Yi’s kind offer to accompany her to go shopping and went out with Wen Ting Xuan.
……
Chi Yu Lou.
Having been here once before, Wen Qi Qi and Wen Ting Xuan were familiar with the way through the Hundred Flowers Pavilion and went to the Chi Yu Lou at the back.
Because of their performance last night at the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, which brought in a lot of money to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, when the elders saw Wen Qi Qi, they changed their previous contempt and put smiles on their faces, welcoming her in politely as if she were the god of wealth.
“Quickly serve tea to the Deputy Master.” The Grand Elder said with a smile.
Immediately, a servant respectfully brought in the tea.
When she heard the Grand Elder’s tone, the corner of Wen Qi Qi’s mouth curled. Was this an acknowledgement of her ability?
She took the cup of tea and took a sip slowly and carefully.
When several elders saw this, they sat back a bit, and after exchanging glances with each other, the eldest elder spoke again.
“The ability of the Deputy Master is obvious to all. It is an honor for us to have such a talented person as the Deputy Master join our Chi Yu Lou. Moreover, you are also the brother of the Master, so we are also very relieved. In the future, we will leave all the affairs of our organization to the Deputy Master. We hope that you can lead us to glory again.”
“I hope that the Deputy Master can lead us to create glory again!” Several other elders echoed the words.
Wen Qi Qi and Wen Ting Xuan exchanged a glance and thought to themselves, ‘It seems that the financial crisis of the Chi Yu Lou is more serious than what they thought.’
Otherwise, how could the elders be so eager to recognize her as the deputy master?
But this is exactly the result she wanted.
She said, “It’s rare that the elders recognize my ability and recognize me as the deputy master. I will not let down your trust and will do my best to make our Chi Yu Lou famous.”
When the elders heard that, they handed her a silver medal representing the identity of the Deputy Master of the Chi Yu Lou, “From now on, you are the Deputy Master of our Chi Yu Lou, and you can take care of all the affairs of the organization.”
Wen Qi Qi reached out and took it. She looked at it, and then said, “Since the elders have said that the affairs of the organization will be entrusted to me, today, I have a few proposals to discuss with the elders.”
As soon as the elders heard this, they immediately sat upright and took the attitude of listening.
Wen Qi Qi was satisfied with their attitude.
It was true that money could make the devil work hard.
She only earned some silver for Hundred Flowers Pavilion, and these elders are now obedient to her.
However, it also shows that the Chi Yu Lou is already at the end of its rope. There is only an empty frame left, and they are anxious for someone to lead them out of this unfortunate situation.
