Together with Wang Pozi, Ye Jiu came to the kitchen where another old lady, surnamed Li, had already started to get busy.
In this courtyard, the meals for more than thirty girls needed to be prepared, and both Ye Jiu and Wang Pozi quickly got the hang of it.
Although in this life Ye Jiu had never cooked before, he had practiced a lot in his previous life. Apart from some initial unfamiliarity, he soon became extremely proficient in chopping vegetables and cooking.
Half a month flew by, and during this time, Ye Jiu had bonded with a few old maids in the courtyard, and he had also escaped the fate of being sold, successfully staying on as a servant girl.
After all the girls in the courtyard were sold off—some were fortunate enough to be auctioned into wealthy households as concubines, while the less fortunate ones were left to be sold off to Fireworks Willow Alley and various Dance Workshops.
After the girls had been sold, the courtyard suddenly became quiet.
