How to answer?
Mo Yi hesitated...

Having said all that, why didn't she respond? Madam Wang immediately became anxious; normally, she would have started scolding her right away.

"Moyi! Your grandmother is talking to you! What are you thinking about over there?"

“Mother, I dare not tell Zhao Mama these things. Why don’t you go and tell her?” Mo Yi pushed her away.

Grandma Wang looked at Wang Xiujuan and said, "Then you go and tell them!"

Thinking of Zhao Mama's appearance, Wang Shi felt a little scared...

"That's fine... but I feel like it's better if Yi-ya says so! After all, Granny Zhao came to teach her on her own initiative, so she has more influence! Besides, it's just two more people listening to the lesson, it won't cause any problems... whether you're herding one sheep or three sheep, it's still the same!"

Everyone turned to look at Mo Yi again.

"Yes, Yi Yi, why don't you talk to Granny Zhao about it!"

Having no other choice, she could only agree: "Then tomorrow, I'll find an opportunity to ask Granny Zhao. But whether she agrees or not is beyond our control. If it doesn't work out, please don't blame us, elders and sisters."

Everyone was a little disappointed by her attitude, and they looked at each other.

Mo Wen suddenly chuckled twice, then turned her head away with a mocking expression. It seemed she was angry again!
Mo Yi's anger reached his head, and he lowered his eyelids, no longer speaking.

It took Wang a long time to suppress her habit of immediately cursing Mo Yi.

Just then, the gatekeeper came in.

"Madam, a carriage has arrived outside. They say it's Zhao Mama's men!"

Everyone's attention immediately shifted again, and Mrs. Zhuang stood up: "Please sit down, Grandma, I'll go take a look!"

Wang's eyes lit up. "Mother, I'll go take a look too!" she said, and quickly followed. Liu, of course, was not to be outdone.

Then one by one, everyone quietly slipped into the front yard, ready to see what was going on.

Two cars were parked at the entrance.

Standing under the carriage were four maids and several male servants.

What was unusual was that the four girls, all of similar height and build, were dressed in bright blue cross-collar, narrow-sleeved blouses and dark blue wide-legged trousers. They were probably dressed rather lightly for ease of work.

As soon as Zhuang came out, the first girl stepped forward to greet her.

"Excuse me, are you Mrs. Mo?!"

Zhuang smiled broadly, "Yes! This is Mo Yi's mother, Second Madam Mo!"

The woman bowed to Wang again, saying, "This servant, Hongyan, has come to tidy up the house on the orders of Granny Zhao."

Zhuang quickly said, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss! The courtyard is all ready! We've also prepared staff. If you need anything, just let them do it."

Hongyan smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Madam Mo! We've been with Granny for a long time and know her habits, which makes things easier for us. Time is short, so we'd better get to work!"

"This way, please, young lady."

"Please lead the way, madam. Greenery, come with me!"

As soon as Hongyan entered the courtyard, she saw a group of women standing there.

She wasn't surprised, smiled, and gave a slight bow. Without lingering, she walked straight inside.

Looking at that girl's expression, demeanor, and gait, she was even more impressive than my own daughter!
Everyone got excited again.

Wang Xiujuan, in particular, lived a good life and had many servants around her. In order to pursue the quality of life of wealthy families, she also specially bought maids who had been trained in etiquette.

However, none of them can compare to the girl in front of them.

Following behind, Wang was also moved: Mo Wen had two head maids by her side. She had originally planned to buy two more after the New Year, and then consider whether to prepare a concubine as well. But looking at Hongyan, she thought of Granny Xu sent by the Xu family, whose manners were also impeccable... If the servants around the Xu family masters were all like this... not only would Mo Wen's current maids be inadequate, but any more she wanted to buy would be different from her previous plans.

It seems that to marry into a wealthy family, the dowry needs to be of high quality, not only in terms of the physical items but also in the skill of the people involved!
Luckily, we encountered Granny Zhao, who discovered the problem early on. We need to solve it quickly...

The room that Zhuang had prepared originally belonged to her two daughters. After they got married, she cleaned it out to use as a wedding room for Mo Fan. So it was quite tidy, and the walls were white.

The room was emptied; there were tables and chairs in the outer room, and two beds and a cabinet were placed in the inner room.

It was cleaned up, and a charcoal fire was lit. It wasn't damp or cold, and there was no strange smell.

Zhuang said, "What do you think of this place, young lady? If it doesn't work, we'll think of another way."

Hongyan glanced at them briefly, then nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mrs. Mo. This is much better. We'll carry our things inside now."

"Should I call a few people to help?"

“We also brought people, but it will be faster if Madam Mo asks someone to help.”

After Lvyi went out and gave an order, her people began carrying things into the courtyard. Zhuang Shi had also asked two people to help, but worried that the items might be valuable and break, so she only told them to take some simple things.

All the members of the Mo family stood aside and watched silently.

The items were packed in wooden boxes and bamboo boxes, totaling seven or eight boxes. Some were light and some were heavy, but the servants were quick and strong, and in no time they had all entered the courtyard.

The four maids first brought clean water and wiped the room again.

Then, they started unpacking, taking things out and tidying up as they went.

Wang was very shrewd; she secretly summoned several girls from the Mo family and had them learn something from her.

Holding Mowen tightly, she whispered in her ear, "Wenwen, look, look... these maids. These are the maids of a wealthy family! Look at their manners, how they work..."

Only now has Mowen truly broadened his horizons.

These past two days have been quite a shock to her, with many things she had never seen or expected before.

She had been full of confidence, preparing to marry into the Xu family, but now she realized she was quite lacking in many areas. If all the girls in the Xu family were like this…

Putting everything else aside, the way the items are organized makes a clear difference.

Several boxes were placed in the order they were packed.

Open it up, and you'll find everything neatly stacked. There's a specific order to what's on top and bottom, so you can take something out and use it immediately instead of leaving it piled up!
Looking at these girls, they were working silently with their heads down. But whenever they did speak, it was with a smile and their voices were soft.

They moved swiftly and lightly, each doing their own thing. When coordination was needed, there was no need for discussion; it was as if they had practiced countless times.

The order of tasks was meticulously planned, with no waste or duplication.

Soon, the bed curtains were hung up and the bedding was laid out. Clothes were taken out and neatly folded in the closet, set by set, clearly visible at a glance.

In the outer room, a carpet was laid on the floor.

Some books and utensils were placed on the table. A bronze incense burner was taken out, and incense was burned...

First, Wang whispered to Mo Wen, "Did you see that? This work is done so meticulously!" Then, seeing that her sister-in-law had only prepared a desk and chair for one person to attend class, she quickly turned to Mo Yi and whispered, "Tomorrow morning, as soon as you see Granny Zhao, tell her about the sisters' class! Do you hear me?"

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Mo Yi nodded: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely tell her."

Before long, the room was all cleaned up, and the girls did a final check without chatting with the Mo family.

Liu, carrying a teapot and snacks, approached them, trying to get information out of them.

The lead girl smiled and chatted, but said nothing...
