The Third Prince regretted not trying out more when he had the chance because he found that the other dishes made by Zhou Ying were more delicious and more suitable for his palate.

It seemed he had to help her open her restaurant as soon as possible.

After the meal, they chatted for a while. When King Rui found out everything was going well for Gu Chengrui at the government offices, he got up and returned home.

The next morning, Zhou Ying was about to go to the woodworking shop to get the door sign when the old butler walked in. He said, “Madam Gu, if you need any help, feel free to ask. His Highness has already instructed that 1 prepare you a carriage and manpower.”

“Thank you, Uncle Feng.” Zhou Ying thanked him and didn’t stand on ceremony. She went straight back to pack up her things and then first transported their luggage to their new residence.

“Uncle Feng, does His Highness have a teahouse under his name?” Zhou Ying asked on the way.”

“No. We’re mainly in the silver-making and wedding-related business.” Uncle Feng then asked, “Madam Gu, what’s the matter?”

“There’s something I might need help on. I want someone to teach my brother-in-law how to do business, especially running a restaurant.”

The old butler nodded and replied, “Well then, 1’11 go ask Feng Chun later and see if he can help arrange it.”

“Alright, thank you.”

“You’re welcome. It’s a small matter.” Uncle Feng waved his hand.

When they arrived at the residence, Zhou Ying asked Zhou Dasheng to give each helper a tael of silver as tea money before sending them away.

After that, Zhou Ying gave Zhou Dong 20 taels of silver and asked him to retrieve the door sign.

She and the others, along with Qiu Niang, moved their luggage and goods to the storeroom south of the central courtyard.

After she was done, Zhou Ying carried out three batches of relatively good cloth and handed them to Qiu Niang. “Mother Qiu, please take these. You can use them to make winter clothes.”

“That won’t do, or else the clothes we wear as servants will be too eye-catching. You guys should keep them for yourselves.

“Besides, these cloths were given by the Emperor; it’s not suitable if we take them.” Qiu Niang immediately pushed it back.

“There’s nothing inappropriate about it. There’s no mark that says otherwise. Please take it; I won’t have the chance to offer you such great cloth in the future.”

Ultimately, Qiu Niang shook her head and took three batches of the lowest-quality silk. “I’ll take these. It’s decent but not too eye-catching.”

“Alright then.” Zhou Ying had no choice but to put her arms back and ask, “Mother Qiu, tomorrow morning 1 will buy some servants for our residence. I want you to be in charge of the inner courtyard.”

Qiu Niang wanted to say something but hesitated. “I haven’t managed people before. I’m afraid I can’t do it well.”

“No one is born with management skills. Just try it out. If you can do it, then it’s all good. If you feel that you can’t do it, I’ll find someone else.”

“Alright, I’ll try it out then.”

Zhou Ying nodded and let Zhou Dasheng take care of the household chores.

She knew that with his personality, he would not be able to take on more of the heavier responsibilities.

Finally, she looked at Haitang and her husband. “You two can stay in the kitchen. Remember, being in the kitchen isn’t just for you to cook for us. It’s for you to improve your skills as much as possible.

“If possible, you two should be going to the restaurant to work after it opens.”

“Understood. We will definitely work hard.” The couple nodded repeatedly.

After that, only Haitang was left to help her tidy up the house. By noon, everything was ready.

Apart from the smell of the new furniture, everything was in line with her standards.

Haitang returned after washing her face and asked, “Madam, what do you want to eat for lunch?”

“Just cook whatever we have. I’m not picky.” Zhou Ying replied.

“Alright, do take a rest while you wait. I will be back soon.” After Haitang finished speaking, she turned around and ran out..
