Chapter 655: The Future Mansion

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the past, Madame Zheng would have not been that happy hearing what Mrs. Duke North said, but today, things were different.

With a smile on her face, she kept observing the mansion as she said critically, “Duke North’s Mansion is poor, but you need to keep it clean, right? It looks so shabby and bleak, I don’t want my Yunfan to suffer when he lives here.”

She kept making criticism about what was around the mansion as if she were already the owner.

Mrs. Duke North would have driven her out in the past, but hearing what Madame Zheng said, she almost fell.

She looked at her with disbelief. So Zheng Yunfan was going to inherit the rank? That was impossible!

However, soon Mrs. Duke North started to feel convinced. Madame Zheng had been drooling for this position for a long while, but she never dared to bring it up on the surface. However, she did today.

Then Mrs. Duke North was reminded of how Chenyi unwillingly told her about the postponed announcement. Was he lying to her?

Mrs. Duke North felt that she almost passed out.

She held her hands against her chest and the aunt next to her supported her.

Madame Zheng got startled too. She was just here trying to brag about something, but Mrs. Duke North, who was always so intimidating, just could not even stand any threats.

She got so frightened that she decided to leave. She did not want to cause any trouble before Yunfan formally got granted the rank, otherwise the Zheng Family would blame her for any trouble that was caused.

She showed a timid smile. “You should not behave like this. Even when Yunfan gets the rank, he is still part of the family, and we will still take care of you.”

Having said these words, she left.

Mrs. Duke North looked so miserable.

“I must talk with Lady Chaoyan. I am going to make it up to her. It was my fault to have humiliated her!” Mrs. Duke North suddenly jerked up. Aunt followed and exchanged a look with the housekeeper, telling him to get Young Duke.

At Gu Chaoyan’s mansion.

Gu Chaoyan was sunbathing in the yard, drinking tea in the sunlight.

It was almost the end of the year, and they had a lot to do. Xiu Jie was available today, so he came to ask her. “Elder Miss, we should make some preparations for the New Year.”

Gu Chaoyan nodded.

That was true. She did not care much about festivals, but there were more than a dozen people in the mansion and those employees should have a good New Year. So she should pay attention to the preparations after all.

“Xiu Jie, you and Qing can be in charge of the preparations for the New Year. We have plenty of money, so don’t be too frugal about buying stuff. Just buy what is necessary, prepare huge and precious presents for everyone, including the cleaners and chefs, for the New Year, and every employee should get 10 more yuan each month so that they will work for us devotedly. Tell them that as long as they work hard and well, they will be granted with presents,” Gu Chaoyan said.

Xiu Jie nodded and smiled. “I will do that well.”

Lady Chaoyan treated the servants well, so Xiu Jie found it a great honor to have such a Miss to serve.

Xiu Jie was about to get down to business, when Qing suddenly rushed in. “Elder Miss, Mrs.. Duke North is here asking to see you.”
