"Listen to me..."
Wu Weiwei signaled for everyone to quiet down.
She looked toward Qin Baihe, her tone pointed:
"I am not forcing any of you to stay. If there is anyone here who does not wish to remain, the door is right there—you are free to leave, and I will not see you out. Those willing to join our Wei Garden should go to Wanqiu to fill out the registration forms; training begins today."
The crowd looked toward Qin Baihe, only to see her face dark and sullen.
*Hmph, leave? Fine!*
Did they really think she was willing to wait on those noble ladies?
Since the Yihong Brothel had been ordered to dissolve by the Emperor, not only did she not need to redeem her own contract, but she could also walk away with the silver she had saved over the years to find a better future.
Thinking of the scholar waiting for her in Willow Alley, she gave the group a cold sneer. Just wait—once that scholar earned his title and she was granted an official rank, she would see if these people regretted treating her this way today.
Once Wu Weiwei finished explaining the rules, a swarm of people rushed toward Wanqiu, scrambling to register.
"Come, come, don't rush. One by one..."
Mammy Mei and Wanqiu took out their ledgers to sign them in. Chen Furong and Lingfu stood by to maintain order.
Watching the angry expression on Qin Baihe’s face as she departed, Wu Weiwei gave a cold, internal smile. Just because she couldn't deal with her now didn't mean she wouldn't be able to later.
