Apart from Min Rou, some official wives had also arrived at the Imperial Grant Courtyard early to help.

Holding her daughter, Concubine Liu looked around and felt her hands were heavy.

Smelling the milky fragrance on her daughter, she clearly felt herself becoming smarter, handling things more efficiently.

"Qiu Li, you and Consort Min together, register everyone's expertise."

"Divide into three groups: spinning, weaving, and sewing."

[Wow, my mother is so amazing, she even knows about assembly line production!]

Xiao Chuchu couldn't help but praise.

Looking at the system prompt, she was even happier - her mother's original intelligence was 76, but now, with her blessing, it had doubled to 152.

[So, Mom is actually smarter than Grandpa himself.]

Concubine Liu was also stunned when she heard this. Was she smarter than her father?

But she didn't have time to think about it, or even time to catch up with Min Rou next to her. After delegating tasks, she had the people in the spinning group start operating the silk machines brought out from the palace.

Most of the people who came to this courtyard today were summoned by the emperor through Old Madam Liu two days ago.

The recruiting criteria didn't consider how influential their families were, only whether they had skilled labor.

So most of those who came were wives who had once come from humble backgrounds, skilled with needles and thread.

Not only did they participate themselves, but they also brought along their most diligent maids and servants, just like the Empress Dowager, to help out.

"Wow, this is a good thing!"

"The consort is really amazing, to be able to come up with this."

After doing the work for a while, they could see more clearly than the palace consorts the changes brought by this new machine!

"If this were to be taken to our hometown before, it would have been snatched up."

"Isn't that right? No wonder Old Master Liu catches thieves one after another. Everyone in the Liu family is so clever! They can even invent such good things."

The official wives in the spinning and weaving groups instantly fell in love with this machine.

Word spread quickly, and the entire courtyard's maids and servants came to see, all praising it endlessly.

With this thing, the speed would increase by more than a little bit, and it wouldn't require much effort!

Their gaze towards Concubine Liu changed instantly.

Originally, they had only paid attention to Concubine Liu because of Old Master Liu's recent achievements. But now, they truly admired this young and beautiful palace consort from the bottom of their hearts.

"Concubine Liu is even better than the Empress..."

"Shh! Are you daring to say that?"

"What's there not to dare? Just telling the truth... If the Empress also comes up with something helpful for us women, I'll praise her too."

The maids and servants gathered together, speaking without restraint.

The praise of common people is the most sincere.

Consort Min, upon hearing this, winked at Liu Chaniang, "Actually, I think so too."

Liu Chaniang chuckled and pushed her daughter out, "Go do your work, you're the head of the spinning group."
