Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses Chapter 37 - 36: Where Are the Women’s Clothes at Home
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Early the next morning, the family sat together for breakfast.
Wei Yuan stood behind Yuchi, wearing the clothing of a Wei family woman. Her dainty figure appeared sowhat shy on her face.
It was clear that Wei Yuan was previously Qi Yuan’Er, and she had chosen this na for herself.
Normally, she would be with the Qi Family, but today she was with the Wei Family.
Life is truly like a dream!
Earlier, Yuchi had already introduced her to the other mbers of the Wei Family, and they all accepted her.
Finally, everything was alright!
She could finally stay behind her beloved.
The feeling was imnsely comforting.
For a woman like Wei Yuan, not only did she not find anything feudal about this, she found it delightful.
At least she had kept her promise, and all her years of hard work and study had proven their worth.
This was recognition from her beloved.
It felt as though her value was confird, bringing joy and happiness.
With a smile on her oval face, she tilted her head slightly, and the warmth of standing behind her beloved was overwhelming!
As for Yuchi?
He did not force his values onto Wei Yuan, nor did he persuade her to join the table for breakfast.
For Wei Yuan, she preferred to adhere to societal constraints, which was a common ntality among won of that ti.
It spared her from ntal burdens.
Yuchi would not judge with worldly eyes, nor criticize her for any perceived feudalism.
"But you..."
"You’re certainly not shy." Yuchi teased, watching Xun Xian devour her food voraciously.
He glanced at his elder brother, "Brother, make sure to record everything Xun Xian eats, so we can bill the governnt later."
"She sure can eat."
Xun Xian, with a stead bun in her left hand and a fried dough stick in her right, was stuffing her mouth ravenously.
Her cheeks bulged as if she were a mixer.
Ferocious.
"Such a penny-pincher, acting like it’s costing you your life," Xun Xian retorted indifferently.
The Wei Family was affluent; she was just having over thirty buns. Is that a lot?
Not really, right?
She even snatched the bun right in front of Yuchi.
"That’s mine!" Yuchi glared.
"Woof!"
Xun Xian bared her teeth fiercely.
Yuchi’s body trembled, and he retracted his hand, finding that the bun before him had been entirely consud.
Damn!
Is this what the energy consumption at the Foundation Establishnt Stage is like?
This could drive an entire three-mber household out of house and ho.
"Haha," Wei Xubing laughed, "Third brother, are you heading to the Comrce Mansion later?"
"Yes, there are two matters to attend to at the Comrce Mansion."
"Don’t overwork yourself. Let us know if sothing’s up; even if we don’t understand, we can at least cheer for you."
"Haha, alright," Yuchi said as he peeled an egg.
Then he stuffed the whole egg into little Ximo’s mouth.
"Uncle, I can’t fit it all!" little Ximo’s face was now round.
"Sure you can," Yuchi smiled, "Young girls need to eat more nutritious food as they grow."
"I’m not hungry anymore."
"You’re hungry."
Little Ximo looked at Yuchi pitifully.
There is such a hunger.
It’s called "your uncle thinks you’re hungry."
...
During the hour of Chen, at the Comrce Mansion across from the governnt office, people from the six major families had already arrived.
"What do you think Yuchi has called us to discuss?"
"No idea, but it surely has sothing to do with the Comrce Mansion’s developnt."
"Are you still getting involved with the smaller families?"
"Not anymore."
"Forget it, let’s prioritize the Comrce Mansion, we need to make choices."
"Haha, were you scared by what happened with the Qi Family yesterday?"
"Hehe, weren’t you scared by Yuchi?"
"How could I not be..."
"The guy makes decisions swiftly, and I wonder if he’s really just a young man."
"Could he be like the Celestial Mountain Granny?"
"Haha, why don’t you ask him?"
"Don’t dare."
The families had already arrived at the Comrce Mansion.
They were now touring inside.
One must say, the governnt office’s arrangents were quite reliable.
All the furniture in the Comrce Mansion had been prepared, and it was fully operational now.
"Master Wei!" Changsun i greeted with a fan in her hand, bowing.
"Hmm, where’s your grandfather?" Yuchi inquired, looking past her.
"Grandfather sent to learn, hoping Master Wei could provide so guidance," Changsun i said, dressed in n’s attire.
Her clothing was neat and tasteful.
Yuchi nodded slowly, recognizing Changsun i’s intelligence; this would work as long as she was the spokesperson.
"You’re too kind, I just know a little," Yuchi said, stepping aside, "Let’s go inside."
"Master Wei is indeed modest!" Changsun i bead.
She was more convinced that her assessnt of Yuchi was correct. He was intelligent, no doubt.
But not a villainous type.
Very amiable.
And easy to converse with.
Not at all like her grandfather described, who spoke of him as so ferocious being, clearly due to her grandfather’s age-induced fear.
...
The morning passed in discussions, centering on the security of the Comrce Mansion.
Previously, each family needed to hire a sect for protection.
It cost ten thousand silver a year, but now that wasn’t necessary, as they began employing officials.
Not patrols.
But people from the Celestial Capital Departnt.
The Celestial Capital Departnt was responsible for the safety of governnt and civil personnel and not family security.
Yet, the unique standing of the Comrce Mansion made it possible.
When the County Magistrate learned of the Comrce Mansion’s interest, he almost imdiately agreed.
The Comrce Mansion paid.
Only at a cost of ten thousand silver a year, mbers of the Celestial Capital Departnt would be stationed in Xufu Town!
Ten thousand silver a year to protect six great families.
This was an extrely cost-effective choice and having people from the Celestial Capital Departnt was quite excellent.
The governnt office was naturally pleased.
The Comrce Mansion was clearly making nice; one couldn’t ignore goodwill, especially since they were paying for protection.
This was practically a perfect model of governnt-business harmony.
Great!
The contract was signed at this ti.
By afternoon.
The afternoon involved another two hours of discussions, focusing on clothing standards.
Yuchi wanted to propose a standard.
A standard grading for clothing.
Once applied, this would an earning money effortlessly.
The discussions with the seamstresses took quite a while, ultimately categorizing quality into four classes: A, B, C, and D.
A being the best, D being the worst, yet still qualifying.
Clothing quality assessnt was done by six seasoned seamstresses.
The detailed requirents spanned ten pages.
For the Comrce Mansion, all quality-tiered clothing would have a base price and a maximum price.
Linking clothing quality with money, and further with the Comrce Mansion.
In the future, people could determine the garnt’s quality class by a small tag inside.
With the Comrce Mansion as guarantor, the credibility of A, B, C, and D classifications would be easy for people to trust.
The sun set.
Yuchi stretched lazily, exhausted from the day.
But everything was in order now.
The security issue was resolved, with the Celestial Capital Departnt sending people soon.
The clothing classification was here, next cos gradual promotion.
As long as the initial push succeeded, the Comrce Mansion could set various standards later.
This is the Comrce Mansion’s most powerful weapon!
...
On the bustling streets of Xufu Town.
Changsun i, unable to contain her excitent, practically flew back to the Zhangsun Family ho.
Upon seeing her grandfather, Changsun Hao,
with a flushed face, she blurted out, "Grandfather! Where are the family’s won’s clothes? I want to marry Yuchi!"
