After the villain in the whole family read my mind, his character fell apart

"Yes."

Empress Xian looked out the door and said, "This girl is studious. Even in such a difficult situation, she did not sell the books she found, but chose to read them."

"I think she has a good character."

“It’s worth cultivating.”

"Sister, your vision is never wrong!" Concubine Liang laughed, "So sister, do you want to stay here and train her?"

"No need." Empress Xian chuckled. "This girl is independent. I just need to arrange for her to live, a cook, and a teacher. I don't need to worry about anything else. I believe she can grow up on her own."

Concubine Shu nodded and said, "I think this girl is capable."

Empress Xian said, "Yes, let's set off tomorrow and go to the next city to collect the extra grain there. We have almost finished collecting the grain here."

"Okay." Concubine Liang and the others had no objection.

Xiao Xia followed the teacher for several hours. When it was time to eat, Qiu Xiang took her to the kitchen. "Here, our Madam has already selected a cook for you. The cook will come to cook on time every day. You just come and eat."

"The room next to the kitchen is reserved for you to eat."

"As for where to stay, I'll show you your room later."

"We are leaving here tomorrow. Madam said that you can go to the 'Fa Fa Bank' to collect your monthly salary. Madam has deposited the money there and has already made arrangements with the manager there."

“You guys can get it every month!”

"If you want to contact my wife in the future, please write a letter and send it to the 'Quick Delivery Shop'. There is no such thing here, so you have to go to other cities. Sorry for the trouble of running a long way to deliver the letter."

"The letter sent to the 'Quick Delivery Shop' will be received by Madam the fastest."

Qiuxiang told her a lot of things to pay attention to and how to deal with problems in the future.

"Yes, I understand. Thank you, Sister Qiuxiang."

Xiao Xia quickly thanked her, "Thank you for telling me so much."

"This is as it should be. We all work for the Madam, so we should help each other. I won't disturb you while you eat. Your sisters are here too, so take your time eating."

Qiuxiang waved at her, turned around and left quickly.

Xiaochun ran over quickly, "Xiaoxia, what were you talking about just now?"

Xiao Xia, "Sister Qiuxiang said that they will leave here tomorrow. She came to teach me some things. By the way, our monthly salary will be collected from the 'Fa Fa Money House' in the future. We will go there to collect it ourselves every month."

"We will be eating and sleeping in this courtyard. Sister Qiuxiang will take us to find a room later."

"Okay." Xiaochun laughed, "Xiaoxia, thank you so much!"

"If it weren't for you, I would still be there now!"

"You don't know, I learned a lot from doing errands with them today, and I also learned how to pick up good pearls! This job is not tiring!"

"The monthly salary is quite a bit! The sisters all told me about it."

“Everyone here is really nice!”

Xiaochun became more and more excited as she spoke, and Xiaoxia was also very happy for her, "You fought for this on your own, Xiaochun, let's work hard together! Madam gave us this job so that we can earn money, we can't let Madam down!"

"Okay!" Xiaochun nodded vigorously, "I will definitely do this job well and will never let Madam down!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

Xiaochun, "I'm so hungry, let's eat something quickly! I have to go out later!"

Xiao Xia: "Okay!"

The two of them went to the kitchen, took some food to the next room to eat, and after eating, they helped wash the dishes.

The chef was a woman who was 20 to 30 years older than them. Seeing how diligent they were, she smiled and said, "Thank you very much!"

"Just let me do it next time."

The two of them quickly stood at attention, "Hello, sister."

"Let us take care of these!"

"We ate it ourselves, so we should wash it."

The chef raised an eyebrow. She had been a chef for so many years, but this was the first time she had met girls like them. "That's reasonable or not, but thank you all the same."

"You are also doing errands for Madam, right?"

"What's your job?"

Xiaochun, "I pick pearls in the workshop, picking out the good ones!"

Chef, "Oh, this is a tiring job, but you are young, so you should be able to handle it."

Xiaochun scratched his head, "I feel fine! I'm not too tired."

The chef looked at Xiao Xia, "What about you, little girl?"

"As for me, I am still studying here with my wife, and she hasn't assigned me any tasks yet!"

Chef: "Is that so? Fine then. I'll be busy now."

The chef remembered that he had some dishes to prepare and turned back inside.

Xiaochun wanted to ask something, but was stopped by Xiaoxia with a look.

After they washed the dishes and put them inside, they walked a distance away. Xiaochun then asked, "Xiaoxia, why didn't you tell her that you are the future steward? Didn't the Madam want you to be the steward?"

“Things are accomplished through secrets, and failures are revealed through words.”

"For now, this matter is not set in stone, so it's better not to talk nonsense."

Xiao Xia taught her, "Although Madam has promised me, I have not yet learned it, and I am not in that position yet!"

"So it's best not to say anything now."

Xiaochun seemed to understand, "So that's how it is. Okay then!"

Xiao Xia, "And don't tell others everything you ask. If someone asks you what you do in front of the lady, just say you do some small things to make a living!"

"You don't have to go into so much detail. Madam, your shop hasn't opened yet. If this matter is heard by someone with ulterior motives, and someone sells pearls before you, what will happen? You have to consider all these."

Koharu:! ! !

She really didn't think that much!

"What should I do with Xiao Xia... I just told the chef..."

Xiao Xia comforted her, "You don't have to worry too much. She was found by the Madam, and she will definitely not betray the Madam at this time."

"Remember to be careful with your words and actions in the future!"

"Okay, okay, I understand!" Xiaochun hugged her arm, "Luckily I have you by my side. You are my think tank!"

Xiao Xia laughed, "You are also smart. As long as you study hard, you will definitely be able to do it."

Xiaochun made a face, "I can't do that. I get a headache when I see words, and I don't recognize them. As for me, as long as you are by my side, that's enough!"

Xiao Xia sighed, "From today on, I will take time out in the evening to teach you how to read."

Xiaochun made a bitter face, "Ah... I hate it the most..."

Xiao Xia said earnestly, "I won't be with you every day, you have to learn it by yourself eventually."

“Only what you learn yourself truly belongs to you!”

"Work harder, we'll improve together, okay? Xiaochun."

Xiaoxia held her hand. Xiaochun thought for a moment and nodded, "Then I'll have to thank you for your hard work, Xiaoxia."

"It's not hard. I'm happy that we can make progress together!" Xiao Xia smiled gently, "You go and get busy! I'll also review what I just learned."

"Okay!" Xiaochun skipped away.

Xiaoxia went to find Qiuxiang, asked where her room was, and then went to her room to review.
