The bed in the chief assistant's house was much softer compared to the board in Mount Qingcheng.

Although Jiang Yuan Bai was a scholar, he was also a chief assistant. Some people became an official for the common people while some people became an official for their ambition. Jiang Yuan Bai had fulfilled his ambition, which was equivalent to having an enjoyable life.

When Tong'er came in the morning to wait upon Jiang Lisa, her smile was much more brilliant compared to previous days. She chattered while giggling about how much softer and more comfortable her bed was last night. The room she resided in was also brighter and more spacious.

Yun Shuang and Xiang Qiao stood at one side. Yun Shuang was totally unwilling to do her task of serving Jiang Lisa while Xiang Qiao pretended to wipe the table while accompanying Jiang Lisa to chat. Yet she didn't raise her hand to do heavy manual labor at all.

In the entire Pranpriya Garden, apart from Tong'er, there were only Yun Shuang and Xiang Qiao, these servants. Yun Shuang and Xiang Qiao were unlikely to do the heavy work. As a result, Tong'er had to handle all the matters inside and outside the courtyard. Perhaps Ji Shuran had intentionally not given Jiang Lisa some servants to do the rough work. In a way, that was bullying Jiang Lisa not knowing the current standard. If Jiang Lisa understood, Ji Shuran was giving her a reason to be unhappy. Then she would turn her head to Jiang Yuan Bai and shed a few tears, saying that Jiang Lisa had a big temper and what not. From there, things would naturally take its course and she got her way.

Yet Jiang Lisa didn't care in the slightest. When Yun Shuang went outside, Jiang Lisa pulled the corner of Xiang Qiao shirt and spoke: "There's something I need to trouble Xiang Qiao jiejie."

Xiang Qiao was stunned and replied with a smile: "This servant is here to listen to second miss's instructions."

"I'm afraid there's not enough manpower in this courtyard. Mother didn't arrange some rough servants here for me. You and Yun Shuang jiejie are my personal servants, Tong'er also has her hands full already. Xiang Qiao jiejie has stayed in the house for many years, so you should be very familiar with the person who buys and sells servant girls. Could Xiang Qiao jiejie please help me to arrange for a few people for sweeping and watering."

After Xiang Qiao heard, she knitted her brows: "Second miss, to get more servants in the courtyards need Madam's permission."

"Mother is affectionate to me, but unfortunately forgot to arrange manpower for me. She could be busy with daily affairs so she forgot this side here. How can I disturb here? It's just buying a few servant girls, I wish to personally bear it. Xiang Qiao jiejie please arrange it." Then Jiang Lisa conveniently picked up a gold bracelet from the small box and slipped it into Xiang Qiao's hand, speaking and smiling: "Is it possible?"

Is it possible?

The gold bracelet gleamed brightly on Xiang Qiao's hand. The weight felt different from her gold bracelet. This one was slim and elaborate, giving her hand an extravagant impression. Xiang Qiao knew that this kind of workmanship and pattern was more valuable compared to the one worn on her hand.

"Of course it's possible!" Xiang Qiao nodded firmly. Her sight stuck to the bracelet and couldn't move away from it. She had followed Ji Shuran for a few years, but Ji Shuran was not as generous in rewards as this second miss who came from the mountain. Xiang Qiao felt puzzled in her heart. Perhaps this second miss didn't know the worth of these jewelry, that's why she gave them to her so easily?

Before she could think more, Jiang Lisa smilingly spoke from the side: "Then I will now trouble Xiang Qiao jiejie."

Xiang Qiao had received the gold bracelet, her heart felt both nervous and excited. She at once said: "This servantt will definitely settle this matter for second miss. Second miss just needs to wait." While talking, she withdrew outside.
