Chapter 399: Chapter 400 Promoting Embroidery Products_1 Chapter 399: Chapter 400 Promoting Embroidery Products_1 Following the incident where Qian Yuan caused trouble and made threats, almost everyone thought that Mei Garden was heading for disaster, and it would probably not last long. The Qian Family would certainly not let them off easily.

But who would have known that Qian Yuan would come to apologize the very next day? Though his reluctant demeanor left some questioning the sincerity, at least he admitted defeat, didn’t he? Suddenly, nobody dared to underestimate the Mei Team anymore, and those who had harbored some wild thoughts about the actors of the Mei Team also reined in their fantasies after this incident. It was clear the Mei Team was not to be trifled with.

However, some people in the know still guessed why the Qian Family had suddenly come forward to apologize. In a single day, half of the Qian Family’s assets had been taken over. Who else could have such power to pull off such a feat? It reeked of conspiracy and confirmed that the Mei Team had a powerful backer. Anyone who dared to provoke them further would indeed be a fool.

Although Muniang knew that this “kill the chicken to warn the monkeys” approach would put everyone on notice that the Mei Team was not to be trifled with, she still couldn’t fully relax. As a result, the Mei Team employed a group of robust bouncers, ready to throw out anyone who dared to cause trouble.

That day, Guo Yuehua’s facial injuries had mostly healed, and only then did Muniang take her to the Yuyang Embroidery House to select fabrics.

Madam Liu had been waiting there for some time and greeted them with a smile upon their arrival, “You’ve finally come. Please, come inside.”

Muniang said with a smile, “Auntie, why did you personally come out? Aren’t you busy with the embroidery room?”

“I’m just not at ease, so I came personally. After all, the fabrics Lady Guo selects today will set the trend for Chatu Town! I deliberately asked Xiangcai to help look after the embroidery room,” Madam Liu said, clearly flattering Guo Yuehua and greatly satisfying her pride.

Guo Yuehua smiled, “Auntie, you flatter me.”

“Just have a look at these. They are all high-quality fabrics from our Embroidery House. Feel free to pick some, and I’ll have our embroiderers make them into clothes and send them directly to you,” Madam Liu said with a smile.

Guo Yuehua was delighted. She too came from a prominent family and knew how to recognize quality. They were indeed top-notch goods, and Qiao Muniang was not about to shortchange her. She selected a few light-colored fabrics, including a light purple and a lake blue one, with two additional pink and plain white ones.

“These will do.”

Madam Liu took out the selections Guo Yuehua had made, “If you just want to pick these for now, Lady Guo, feel free to come and choose more from our Embroidery House whenever you want.”

“Thank you, Auntie.”

Muniang gestured for a maid to take Guo Yuehua to the inner room for some tea, while she herself talked business with Madam Liu.

“Auntie, take these fabrics back to the embroidery room and start making clothes. I don’t trust the craftsmanship of others. Since they are to become the trademark crafts of our embroidery room, it’s better for you to handle it personally,” Muniang said.

“Of course, be at ease. This matter is very important, how could I leave it to others?”

Muniang smiled, “I know you are always capable, Auntie. You just need to put your efforts into making this one set for Guo Yuehua. But we need to prepare these fabrics promptly, as well as the sachets, handkerchiefs, and accessories she selected last time. Once we promote Guo Yuehua, our Yuyang Embroidery House’s products will surely be in high demand.”

“Mm, I’ll instruct my people to rush the orders as soon as I get back. We mustn’t run out of stock by then.”

“Well, Auntie might have a tough time in these days.”

“What’s that to mind,” Madam Liu laughed, but then, as if something suddenly occurred to her, she looked around furtively before speaking, “Who exactly is this Guo Yuehua anyway?”

Muniang was startled and, not knowing why Madam Liu would suddenly ask this, answered truthfully, “Her family was originally distinguished, but it seems her father got into trouble later on. Their home was ransacked, and she was sold to a brothel. Coincidentally, Qian Yuan was looking for a suitable Ren Yingying in the brothel and brought her back after encountering her.”

“I see, so she has such a background.”

“What’s wrong, Auntie?”

“I notice that girl seems carefree at heart, with a certain pride in her bones. Not that it’s a bad thing, but from an old woman’s point of view, I always fear she might not be able to rein in her arrogance. It could get out of control. Previously, she was down on her luck, so naturally, there wasn’t any issue, but now, you’re lifting her up, and very soon she’ll realize she’s the most glorious woman in Chatu Town, let alone the Daqian Dynasty. When that happens, will she start to put on airs?”

Muniang could understand what Madam Liu was saying. After all, isn’t it the same with some celebrities? Once they become famous and are chased after, they can’t resist getting a swollen ego and then they start acting all high and mighty.

“Initially, I didn’t think much when I used her; I just wanted to quickly find someone suitable to play Ren Yingying to save the show. As for the issue Auntie is worried about, I hadn’t really considered it.”

“The advice I’m giving you is to still be cautious when promoting her. After all, she has taken back her Servant’s Certificate now. Otherwise, if you lift her too high and she no longer regards even you, you’ll be the one bullied in the end,” Madam Liu said with heartfelt concern.

Muniang smiled with a curl of her lips, “Auntie, don’t worry. Who dares to bully me? If she’s brave enough to disregard me, I’ll let her fall just as fast as I lifted her up.”

Madam Liu chided with a smile, “I’m probably worrying too much. You’ve always been a resourceful child, never been suppressed by anyone before. Well, there are still things to take care of at Mei Garden, so I won’t hold you up any longer. It wouldn’t be good to keep Lady Guo waiting too long.”

“Alright, then I’ll be off.” Muniang smiled and went to call Guo Yuehua, and the two of them returned to the theater together.

Madam Liu’s costumes arrived quite quickly, with two sets ready within five days, and were delivered early in the morning. Guo Yuehua lit up at the sight of them, overjoyed by their beauty, and she immediately changed into one.

The young serving girl helped Guo Yuehua dress neatly and styled her hair beautifully, while her waist was adorned with accessories from Yuyang Embroidery House, including a purse and handkerchief, and even her clothes were made from Yuyang Embroidery House’s fine fabrics.

After the serving girl had Guo Yuehua all dolled up, she presented her to Muniang, who laughed openly, “You were already a beauty, and this outfit has made you even more attractive.”

Guo Yuehua bashfully lowered her head, feeling as sweet as honey inside.

“Alright, go out for a stroll later. Just enjoy shopping on the main street at ease. There’s no need to promote anything specifically. Be natural, for you are the best advertisement,” Muniang instructed.

“Understood,” she replied.
