Chapter 414: Chapter 414: The Method to Restore Space (3)_1

Wen’er blurted out, "Mother has been waiting to teach Older Sister to dance. She’s very anxious!"

Cai Wei twisted her mouth, knowing she couldn’t avoid it anymore, so she simply told her mother about her visit to the Zhang family and mentioned the future arrangement of the Zhangs managing the manor and their daughters making the dim sum.

Upon hearing this, Lady Du didn’t say much. She just took Cai Wei back to her room and started teaching her the basic steps and movements of the "Flying Sky Dance".

Cai Wei found the learning process painful and helpless. But after a while, seeing the serious and expectant look on her mother’s face, she could no longer bear to put on an act. Instead, she began to learn seriously from her mother...

Meanwhile...

Within the study room of the Huo Mansion, Huo Yuan was sitting behind his desk, holding a list, and listening to the shopkeeper from the ’Masterpiece Building’ report to him.

"Sir, the young master of Duke An’s Mansion has placed an order on credit for seven thousand taels’ worth of goods. I, a mere shopkeeper, am unable to make the decision. Furthermore, I don’t know what the relationship between their mansion and our boss is. Therefore, I had to say that we currently do not have as many diamonds in the shop and will need a few days to gather them before we can answer him. Right after sending him off, I hurriedly came to consult with Young Master."

Looking at the sketch of the ingeniously crafted jewelry on the list, Huo Yuan asked in surprise, "This jewelry is beautiful, but it attracts too much attention. I wonder which lady from their mansion will be wearing it?"

The shopkeeper replied, "According to Uncle Du, it is for his niece. Apparently, the empress has tasted the meat skewers they sell at home and greatly appreciates them, hence she extraordinarily sent her an invitation to the Shangsi Festival Feast. These items are to be worn by his niece when she enters the palace, and the diamonds will be embedded around the edge of her dance skirt. Look here—"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuan was shocked and instantly on high alert.

She is actually going to participate in the Shangsi Festival Feast!

The Shangsi Festival is naturally a time for young aristocrats to meet. If anyone dares to take a liking to Wei’er, and the Empress decides to be overzealous and gives Wei’er away to someone, what are they to do?

Thinking about this, even him, who is usually calm and elegant, couldn’t sit still anymore. He stood up and anxiously paced back and forth in the study.

"Sir, how should I reply to him?"

Seeing the boss in distress, the shopkeeper from the Masterpiece Building asked cautiously.

After pondering for a moment, Huo Yuan said, "Prepare the goods he wants. I will personally pay a visit to Duke An’s Mansion tomorrow!"

"Yes, sir!"

The shopkeeper of the Masterpiece Building gave a bow and took his leave.

After pacing around the room a few more times, Huo Yuan called out, "Sui Xi!"

Sui Xi quickly stepped forward, bowing and asking, "What is Young Master’s command?"

"Go to the Great General’s Mansion and tell the Young Master of Huai’an that I have something to do tomorrow, so I can’t keep my appointment in his mansion. Please let him understand." Huo Yuan said solemnly.

Sui Xi asked puzzledly, "What does the Young Master have to do? How come I don’t know?"

"Enter the palace to meet Virtuous Concubine and procure another invitation to the Shangsi Festival Feast."

"What? Didn’t Young Master reject the invitation because of illness? Why is Young Master regretting it now?"

Sui Xi asked quite stupidly.

This little boy had been with Huo Yuan for many years and was fully loyal. He was straightforward, saying whatever was on his mind, and occasionally spoke more than necessary.

Huo Yuan valued him for his simplicity and honesty. Unlike those false servants who only knew how to flatter and please, he was always by Huo Yuan’s side, serving him closely and earning his trust.
