Chapter 236 - 235: Probably Going to Hunt Wild Rabbits Now
"Alright. If Lord Jiang says someone is trustworthy, then there must be no mistake. I’ll go back right now to discuss it with Ye Zi and give you an answer as soon as possible," Qi Younian readily agreed.
Qi Younian had always had a good impression of Jiang Yifan. According to what Ye Zi and Nanny Jin had said, Lord Jiang detested his ex-wife greatly and was eager to rid himself of her by granting a divorce. However, when they met earlier in the year, not only was he willing to lend his ex-wife some silver to alleviate her distress, but he also did not add insult to injury; his good character was evident. After further interactions, although Lord Jiang was not very approachable, he always treated people with decency and respect, which made it easy for others to trust and feel reassured by him.
Additionally, now that Jinrong was involved, Qi Younian was naturally inclined to trust him.
When Jiang Yifan heard Qi Younian’s agreement, he continued with his next point: "Furthermore, if the elder wishes to expand the family business, he’ll have to manage his household and properties as one manages a grand enterprise. If suitable servants are found, buy a few and bring them in. With the Sixth Master and the nannies from the Duke’s Mansion around, they can also help to train them properly. Having our own staff makes giving orders and getting things done much more convenient."
Qi Younian nodded repeatedly and sincerely thanked him: "You are right, my lord. I am grateful for your advice."
"It’s just a trivial matter; no thanks are necessary. I came here to say just this and apologize for disturbing the old master during the busy time," Jiang Yifan stated and then stood up to take his leave, "There are matters awaiting me at the Yamen, I must be going now."
After bidding farewell to Qi Younian, Jiang Yifan mounted his horse, turned back to salute once more, then released the reins, and the horse trotted away.
After moving a short distance from the construction site, he came upon an open area not far from the second branch of the Qi family, where several children were noisily busy with something, tossing it out and picking it back up, bustling to and fro.
