Yuten spent several hours reading all the documents piled on the table. All documents have been sorted based on the name of the heritage store where the information came from. Yuten read the information based on the names of the shops. Reading quite a lot, Yuten massaged his forehead briefly and glanced at his Master. Yuten was sullen to see Su Qingyi who was dosing off leaning on a pillow on a wooden couch while enjoying the passing breeze.
'Seems like Master hasn't changed! How could she fall asleep like that while leaving me busy alone reading all these reports? '
Despite his deep grumbling, Yuten could not bear to disturb his Master's break time. Continuing his activity, Yuten let his Master continue to sleep on a wooden cot.
"Wangfei-"
Nanny Mo's calling voice wakes Su Qingyi from her nap. Looking around, this half-awake young woman sees Yuten continue looking at the reports.
"What's wrong Nanny Mo? Why are you looking for this Wangfei? This Wangfei is still very busy now."
After soaking her dry throat from sleeping for a while, Su Qingyi returned the call from Nanny Mo who was standing at the door, not daring to go in because the young mistress had forbidden all servants to come in.
"Wangfei, now it's time for lunch. This old maid wants to bring lunch that has been prepared for you."
At the door, Nanny Mo stands in front of two maids carrying wooden lunch boxes filled with exquisite lunch prepared by the Chef of Hongmei Courtyard and his two assistants. While they were cooking, Nanny Mo stood watching their actions. This old maid knew that her young mistress did not easily trust others to handle her foods because of her life experience while living in the Su family when she's almost being poisoned because others make her food.
Hearing Nanny Mo brings lunch for her, Su Qingyi let Yuten get back inside the space tool. Open the door, Su Qingyi let Nanny Mo and the other maids get inside the big study room while she sits at the round table which is in one of the rooms in the study room. Su Qingyi's study room was divided into two smaller rooms. One room contains a study table along with wooden benches with a comfortable and lightweight chair with backrest making it easy to move around. In the room, two large bookcases stood from the floor to almost touching the ceiling of the room. The bookcase is still largely empty, Su Qingyi intends to fill it later.
In the next room in the study room, there is a round table with four round benches surrounding the table. On the table was a set of teapot and four cups of warm water. The maids arranged lunch in the wooden lunchbox they had brought from the kitchen on the round table. They also replaced warm water in the ceramic teapot on the table because it was already cold. Giving the cutlery to the young mistress, the maids all stood to wait by the side.
Eating alone, Su Qingyi ate casually and in no hurry. She knew that Yuten still needed to finish reading all the reports. Even though Yuten could read faster than ordinary people, Su Qingyi could not act like that or Butler Chen would suspect her abnormality later and report it to Yu Wang. She doesn't want to lie to her husband.
"Do you know where Butler Chen is, Nanny Mo?"
After finished eating, Su Qingyi asked Nanny Mo about the whereabouts of the old eunuch Yu Wang's trusted butler. Yuten had handed over a list of several people from the Su family who worked in one of her inheritance shops that Yuten had read. They need to be removed, Yuten suggested she can use Yu Wang's capable people to take care of them so that she doesn't need to be targeted anymore because of that.
"Does Wangfei need Butler Chen's help?"
Su Qingyi nodded slowly.
"Then this old maid will send Xiao Yuqi to look for him."
"Alright, if Butler Chen has come and tell him to come in."
Su Qingyi got up and walked to the next room where his study table was. On the big wooden table, she wrote down the names of Su's family members who worked in her inheritance clothing store; Jade Cloud Pavilion and her fruit shop; Fruit Jade Pavilion. These people are no different from Hong Tiaoqing's male cousin. Just arbitrarily accepting salary but not working and abuse the power of the Su family to oppress the shops' other employees.
Feeling annoyed, in Su Qingyi's eyes a desire to eliminate them arose. Shocked at her abrupt thoughts, Su Qingyi tapped her forehead with the tip of the writing brush she was holding. She wonders where that weird thought came from. Shaking her head, Su Qingyi did not want to think further. This young woman is not sure she will like the truth behind these thoughts.
Butler Chen walked in hastily when he heard that the young lady called out for him. This old eunuch could guess the reason behind the sudden call. He hopes that his guess is correct. If true, he would try to help Wangfei overcome the obstacles that blocked the young woman to take over her heritage shops even without Wangye's orders. Over the past few days, the old eunuch saw some hazy happiness dimly radiated from his young prince. Others may be won't realize it but the old eunuch takes care of Yu Wang since the prince still a young boy so he can see it. Knowing how happy the prince with his wife now, make the old man also feels happy. The old eunuch already thinks the prince like his own close family, so the prince happiness is very important for him just like the happiness of his son.
"Wangfei-"
Butler Chen bows a little toward his mistress, Su Qingyi waving her sleeve letting he rise from his bow.
"This Wangfei calls Butler Chen here because this one needs your help."
"Wangfei just need to order this old eunuch if Wangfei needs my help. This old one will do my best to finish the tasks."
Su Qingyi gives the papers filled with some names inside it to Nanny Mo. The old maid gives it to the old eunuch.
"This is-?"
"Inside the papers filled with the names of the people from the Su Family members. This Wangfei wants Butler Chen to help to drive them out of these Wangfei heritage shops. They have all made these shops lose money even though they should have been making huge profits so far. They can't be left there."
Without asking anything, Butler Chen agrees to help his mistress. Wangye already told him to help with any Wangfei orders. Looking at the names inside the paper, Butler Chen feels disdained to those people. They acting so dare to do those filthy things inside Wangfei heritage shops. He needs to mobilize Wangye elite guard inside the Yu Wang's residence to chase those people out Wangfei's heritage shops.
