Qingluo paused for a moment and listened to the action of chewing the fruit. He felt that his master was thinking too much.
She reluctantly mentioned her thoughts: "If we really want to change the name, it would just be Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower. This place is close to the river, and there is a breeze blowing on our face. Moreover, the name sounds elegant. If there is another one, the guests will talk about it.
Which one should I call when calling?"
"When the time comes, people will ask the guests whether they want tea or food. If you want to drink tea, go to the building next to the river here, and if you want to eat, go to that building."
Xie Yixiao thought about it. Multiple names seemed to be of no benefit, but instead became a burden: "Then let's go to Jiangshang Qingfeng Tower."
It would be even better if it was paired with the song "Breeze on the River", but it's just a pity.
Xie Yixiao and Manager Wang decided on a few things. The first was the window matter. This was simple and could be done by just finding a few carpenters. Moreover, it was still spring and summer, so there was no rush. As long as it was ready for autumn and winter.
Just install it when you use it.
Next, let’s hire someone to redesign the open space facing the lake outside the tea house, plant flowers, trees, and pavement. Then it will also be a place for tourists and scenery.
The surrounding areas belonging to Yunhe Tower are also circled to prevent people from sneaking in and disturbing guests in the future, and to avoid some troubles.
The task given to Ming Jing was to find a gentleman who could write a storybook to rewrite the name of the dish, as well as a new plaque. Xie Yixiao planned to ask Mr. Xie to write a few words and have the plaque made.
Of course, Xie Yixiao also told Manager Wang that Ming Jing would stay here and take care of various matters such as purchasing and the maids in the building.
In the end, everyone needs to work together to find a big manager who can take charge.
After arrangements were made for Yunhe Tower, Xie Yixiao and his group went to the nearby market. After many twists and turns, they entered an alley. In that alley was a second-level courtyard that Gu Qinse had bought before.
, still empty now
"This yard is neither big nor small, and the surroundings are convenient. If you are too busy, you can live here. If you have free time, go back to Xie's house." Xie Yixiao looked at the empty yard. There must have been no one there for a long time.
Living there, it's a bit deserted,
"In the future, if there are girls working in the teahouse and there is no place to live, you can arrange to live here. You can go back and forth with them on weekdays, and you will have a companion. Although the distance is not far, the alley may not be completely
Safe.”
Xie Yixiao plans to recruit some women in the restaurant, who will work as maids or tea doctors in the teahouse in the future.
If a place like a teahouse is just run by some rough guys, how can they do it? To put it bluntly, many people can't even make tea, let alone which tea is better.
Want tea? What kind of tea do you want? Bring the tea leaves and you can make your own.
"But the yard still needs to be tidied up. Let everyone in the yard come over tomorrow and find a few guards to help. Clean up what needs to be cleaned, repair what needs to be repaired, and then add some furniture."
Ming Jing nodded: "Very good."
A group of people went through the door on the right side of the main courtyard. Inside was a small side courtyard. The courtyard was not big and could only accommodate two rooms. However, there was a small courtyard in front of the house with some flowers, plants and trees. It looked pretty.
Quite exquisite.
"How about you live here in the future? You don't have to squeeze in with them. You can buy some flowers and plants to plant in the future. This courtyard will definitely be a beautiful scene." Xie Yixiao looked at the yard. The yard is really not big, but it is enough for one person to live in.
Yes, there is no need to squeeze in with others.
Xie Yixiao heard that there was a courtyard here and took a fancy to it at first sight. He thought it was suitable and allowed Ming Jing to live in this small courtyard.
"You are working in Yunhe Tower while waiting for news. If you meet any suitable man, let us know when the time comes."
Ming Jing thought to herself that it would be great if she could live out her life peacefully. How could she dare to think about any man, especially since her mother had learned from the past. She might have lost her eyesight temporarily and married a jackal, which would have cost her her life.
.
Xie Yixiao probably knew what she was thinking, and smiled and said: "There are good and bad men in the world. You can't just beat them all to death after seeing a bad one, thinking they are all bad."
"I didn't want to get married before. I felt that after getting married, the husband would have groups of wives and concubines, and it would be really boring to have to fight with these concubines for one man every day, but I had to get married."
In this era, it is a serious matter for a woman not to marry. Regardless of whether the family's reputation is damaged because of you, it will be difficult for you to stand up in the world.
The rumors and evil words outside are unbearable to you, and many people around you may even avoid you. But anyone who is not strong-willed enough will be driven to the point of being driven by those words.
Although Xie Yixiao is somewhat clever, she is just an ordinary person and her mind is not strong, so she agreed to marry in the first place. She just wanted to find someone who would not take concubines and had a better temper.
If you were in modern times and didn't want to get married, you could still get by if you insisted on it. But in this feudal society, it would be really difficult. Unless the natal family is powerful, such as this royal princess, even if she raises a few faces, some
No one dared to discuss it.
A daughter of a noble family has a noble status and enjoys all the glory and wealth. Similarly, there are also things that she has to do or cannot do.
It is impossible for her to be unmarried.
Fortunately she met Rong Ci.
However, there are a few women in the world who are as lucky as she is. Many girls from aristocratic families have been married off just for the sake of marriage. After giving birth to their eldest son, their husbands will start taking concubines. The rest of their lives will be tossed around in the back house, and their lives will be in a hurry.
.
Free love, marrying the person I want to marry is really difficult here, but I have to marry, which shows the difficulty for women.
"If you never meet her and you really don't want to marry, wait until you come back later. If you do meet her, I hope you can cherish her." Xie Yixiao thinks that a good girl like Ming Jing should have a happy ending instead of just rushing through life like this.
, alone.
Ming Jing didn't care much, but still nodded: "I understand, slave."
.
After Xie Yixiao went back, he went to ask for Mr. Xie's calligraphy, which made Mr. Xie very angry: "I have never seen you take care of my own shop, but now you are taking care of other people's houses. I haven't married yet."
, why are you facing others?"
Xie Yixiao chuckled: "Look what you said, the Ninth Young Master said that all the money earned before getting married belongs to my private money. The money earned after getting married is for our daily use, and the rest belongs to me."
"What's wrong with putting more thought into this free thing? I do it all for myself."
Mr. Xie laughed angrily at her words and told her to get out of here.
Xie Yi smiled and said: "Uncle, please help me just once. I came to ask you because I remembered that your calligraphy treasures are at the top of the list in the Imperial City."
