“Mrs. Shao, you are new to this. If two families are acquaintances and move to a new place, they would stick together and isolate the third. If three families are acquaintances, the three families would become one and isolate the manager. So, the best solution is that they shouldn’t know each other!”
“I am just saying that out of precaution. It doesn’t necessarily have to be like this. What we need to do is to be careful”
That made Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan less confused.
“That is a valid point!” Qiao Xuan smiled. “You are right. We better be careful. But for what you said, we would not have thought about this before!”
Qiao Xuan thanked her constantly.
“You are welcome, Mrs. Shao.” The agent cheered inwardly. She could not help but develop a good feeling towards the couple.
She had been in this business for more than 30 years, She was very experienced, and could see through the world easily. Generally speaking, people who became rich from ordinary or poor families had the biggest self-esteem and inferiority complex. They just did not listen to other peoples suggestions, and always felt that others were laughing at them in their hearts.
They would not ask for suggestions or be grateful like the woman in front of her.
But Qiao Xuan was frank and natural, which was a rare thing.
She was confident and seemed to have a lot of abilities that would definitely take them ahead in life.
So, the agent definitely wanted to befriend her.
Finally, they bought 18 laborers as well as six maids.
First Madame offered a temporary place for these people at the private mansion. Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan thanked her for the generosity.
The three households were called Lin Jin, Qiao Shisan and Dong Da, whilst the six maids were called Chunyu, Chunfen, Daman, Xiaoman, Lixia and Liqiu.
All of those were solar terms for easy remembrance.
First Madame laughed at the logic behind the naming process.
When the laborers were bought, Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan’s mission was completed. After Madame Jia’s banquet the next day, they would head home.
It was a busy season for the farmers’ family and they had no time to waste.
They had money so they could hire laborers for help, thus not being in such a hurry as the others and choosing to stay at home.
Shao Yunduan kept Qiao Xuan company for shopping this afternoon.
First Madame was very understanding. She could not keep her to her side all the time, especially when she had not spent some quality time with her own husband.
The following day, Ms. Mi Junior hurriedly ate breakfast and came to the First Madame’s residence with Yuezheng Ting, fearing that Qiao Xuan would not show up for the banquet.
The daughter and the girl were very well dressed in brocade garments and wearing a lot of shining jewelry.
“We will keep each other company, so I have brought Ting along to accompany
Mrs. Shao. Oh, Mrs. Shao is ready as well?”
Ms. Mi Junior sounded very relaxed. She was looking forward to seeing the show. She smiled even deeper when she saw Qiao Xuan.
First Madame smiled briefly. “Xuan is ready, thanks for your concern!”
Ms. Mi Junior chuckled. “Elder Sister-in-law, your guest is mine as well!”
Yuezheng Ting threw a glance at Qiao Xuan. She was dressed in a pale lotus-colored satin-faced placket, ivory white stand-up collar jacket, and a beige bamboo-leaf-patterned silk-faced pleated skirt..
