Chapter 184 - 183 Central Plains People Cannot Get Used to the Food
Jiang Yifan, in front of everyone, had been very effective with the pretentious Q&A with Ye Xinyan. After the county government office delegation left, the people in the village, regardless of their status, not only treated the members of the second branch of the Qi family warmly but also showed them a great deal of respectful flattery within that warmth.
The village women who used to look at Ye Xinyan with slanted eyes had also toned down the harshness which used to be so unpleasant to see, replacing it with an even more detestable sycophancy, making Ye Xinyan’s back chill with irritation.
Regardless of how those around her were behaving, there were still things that had to be done.
Once many matters were settled, it was time to start working on them.
The day after Jiang Yifan’s inspection of Clear Water Village, around the Si Hour, the people Jinrong had found who were skilled in dairy processing arrived. Along with them came two stewards who had managed food workshops before, and a cart filled with what appeared to be equipment for setting up simple military tents.
Ye Xinyan could no longer interact with people however she wished, alone, as she had done before. Under Nanny Liu’s tight arrangements, a young maid and an old woman servant were always by her side.
Although this was somewhat inconvenient, it certainly lent an air of authority.
Now, with a cattle farm and a foundation of Yellow butter and Cheese Powder, as well as dedicated servants from Wang’s household following Ye Xinyan, her dealings with the two managers became much simpler.
