Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons

"Liyun, you will be responsible for teaching them. There are only three days left before the official opening."

Xu Liyun led the two teenagers to the backyard and asked gently, "What are your names?"

The young men bowed their heads and saluted, with a hint of shyness in their voices, "Please give me a name, Madam!"

Their original nicknames were too vulgar, such as Tiedan, Daniu, etc., and were indeed not suitable to be mentioned in such occasions.

Xu Liyun pondered for a moment, and read from their eyes the inferiority complex caused by the lack of elegance in their names. She said gently: "Then, you will be called Awang, and you will be Afu."

These two names mean good luck and fortune, and are very suitable.

"I will follow my lady's orders."

Then, Xu Liyun took out two sets of men's clothing from the store and asked the two to go to the kitchen to boil water for a bath and change out of their worn-out and patched clothes.

How can you receive guests decently when you are dressed in such tattered clothes?

After Awang and Afu left, the three maids couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Xia Yue seemed a little bolder than the other two. She asked cautiously, "Master, Madam, does this mean that the store will no longer need our services in the future? Are we going to be sold out again?"

She was reluctant to leave this good place which provided her with adequate food, clothing and independent accommodation. It was a world of difference compared to her previous situation.

"It is enough to leave one maid here, who will be responsible for daily chores, especially taking care of food and daily life. We do not plan to sell the other two, but send them back to the village to learn sewing skills."

Xia Yue longs to stay here and enjoy the good life provided by her master. Once she returns to her old place, how can she bear to give up such a life of luxury?

"Madam, Xia Yue is good at cooking. I am willing to stay and continue to serve you."

"Okay, it's decided then. Today everyone will work together to tidy up the store. Starting tomorrow, Chunhua and Qiuju won't need to go upstairs anymore."

Xu Liyun's eyes swept across the chubby maid, then turned to Chunhua and Qiuju, thinking to herself: Perhaps this chubby girl is better at cooking, while the other two are more quiet and introverted, not as smart as Xia Yue.

Keeping Xia Yue is also a good choice.

Awang and Afu quickly finished washing up and stood respectfully in the yard, quietly waiting for the next instructions.

When Xiao Youniang woke up from her nap, she was surprised to find two young and strong new faces in the backyard. She smiled and said, "Daddy is getting more and more efficient in doing things, and the clerks are already in place."

"It's just right that they're awake, Young Lady. Take them to practice the reception words and teach them every detail of entertaining guests in detail, from the arc of the smile to the gentleness of the speech and behavior, so that they can grasp it just right."

Xu Liyun turned her head and looked at Zhang Wuya tenderly, and continued, "Wuya, your cooking skills are second to none in the family. Please take Xia Yue to the kitchen and patiently teach her the secrets and intentions behind each dish. In the future, the meals of Junyi Pavilion will be fully handed over to her, so that every guest who steps into this place can feel the enthusiasm and delicacy of our Zhang family through their taste buds."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked focused and did their own job. The whole house was filled with a busy and hopeful atmosphere.

Zhang Mingyi stood aside, looking at everyone busying around, and couldn't help feeling empty and lonely in his heart.

He couldn't help but wonder why he was the only one who seemed to be forgotten in this lively scene. Even the little guys Xiao Hei, Xiao Huang and Xiao Hui who usually surrounded him were not around to accompany him, which made him feel more lonely.

"Mom, is it possible that among all these things, there is really not a single thing I can do?"

There was a hint of loss in Zhang Mingyi's tone that was hard to conceal.

"Your handwriting is beautiful and neat. I remember that the inscription on the door plaque and the price list in the store were all written by you. Can you still remember the concentration and passion you put in? Perhaps, if you pick up the pen again, you will have new insights and your handwriting will be even better."

Xu Liyun's encouragement was like a ray of warm sunshine, dispelling the haze in Zhang Mingyi's heart.

After hearing this, Zhang Ming's eyes sparkled with inspiration, as if he had found his self-worth, and an unprecedented enthusiasm surged in his heart.

Time passed quietly in the busyness of everyone, and half a day had passed in the blink of an eye, and everyone had gained a lot.

After careful consideration, Zhang Mingyi proposed a new suggestion: "How about this? From now on, after dinner every night, I will spend an hour teaching you how to read and write. Being illiterate is not feasible in this era. Even if you only know a little bit, it will be of great help in daily account management, cash register and other matters, and work efficiency will be greatly improved."

As soon as he finished speaking, there were different reactions from the crowd. Some people were excited, as if they saw a new world about to open up; while some people frowned slightly, obviously not having much interest in learning.

There was a gleam of disbelief in the eyes of the brothers Awang and Afu. They had been poor for many years and had never had the opportunity to read and learn. Unexpectedly, after becoming servants, they would unexpectedly get the opportunity to study. The joy in their hearts was beyond words.

Xia Yue, on the other hand, looked reluctant. Compared to the boring learning of literacy, she would rather spend more time learning cooking skills from the eldest lady and enjoy the fun that comes from the kitchen.

Xiao Youniang looked at her brother's changes in the past few days, feeling surprised and puzzled. She asked softly, "Zhang Mingyi, what happened to you these days? You suddenly became so active and proactive, actively looking for work to do and actively wanting to teach people how to read. This is unlike you who only knows how to play on weekdays!"

"Hey, you are blaming me, mother. It's getting late. We should go back to Wuli Village. I'm beginning to miss those little guys, Xiao Hei, Xiao Huang and Xiao Hui."

There was a hint of childish nostalgia in Zhang Mingyi's words.

The little black dog standing by seemed to understand what Zhang Mingyi said, and muttered to himself: I used to think that I was the one you loved the most, but now it seems that my position has been replaced by those cats and dogs.

At this time, next to Wuli Village, Leyuan Villa, thanks to the hard work of the Zhang family, was gradually taking shape in the embrace of the mountains and forests like a rising sun.

The villa not only carries the expectations of the Zhang family, but also the infinite aspirations of the craftsmen. Everyone involved is looking forward to witnessing the full picture of this building that combines wisdom and creativity as soon as possible.

One day, Zhang Laoer said to his father with pride: "Dad, today we have two new young servants in our village. This way, we can receive guests more appropriately."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhang patted his son on the shoulder, smiling with a hint of ridicule: "Why are you adding more people to the family? Four clever maids are not enough for the whole family? Do you really think you are a wealthy man with thousands of acres of fertile land? You spend money like water. I think our young daughter's cleverness is probably inherited from you!"
