Wanjin Lady

Chapter 368 Sofa
The reason is simple!

It’s just because Wen Wan promised that there will be commission for every position. The salary will be paid once a month, but the commission will be paid on the same day!
Somehow, Sister Zhu always felt that the smile on Zhang Chunhua's face was pale and pale, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, flashing with a hungry green light. This made her a little scared, and she subconsciously took a half step back. Her brain was like a paste, and she blurted out: "Then give me two cups!"

"Ah?!" Miss Cao was shocked and puzzled!

wrong.

Who was it that said she was extravagant in buying Swiss syrup?

Who said that entering the Red Mansion today is just to broaden your horizons and spending a penny is nothing but a dog?

Who else is so generous as to order two cups of milk tea at non-member price!
Sister Zhu felt her entire body relax like never before after spending the money. She patted Miss Cao on the shoulder and said, "Sister, I'll treat you too. Let's try this milk tea! Hey! It's the only one of its kind in the entire Chen Dynasty! Let's show it off to the neighbors when we get back!"

Miss Cao laughed, feeling complicated, thinking to herself that this Red Mansion was truly remarkable! It was even scarier than a brothel that extorted money from men!
Look, the usually stingy Sister Zhu has been driven insane and actually spent the money for a piece of pork to buy sweet soup for this fool!
Seeing that Sister Zhu had also placed an order, the ladies around her were all amused. Those who knew each other winked at each other and whispered, "Just now you said that anyone who bought milk tea was a fool! Look, I'm being a fool myself!"

Some people also saw through the trick and said, "You only saw this old lady paying for the milk tea, why didn't you see the amazing performance of the receptionist, Miss Zhang?"

Most of the ladies in the house have private property and run their own businesses. As outsiders, they watch the excitement while insiders watch the details. They start to have gentle and wonderful ideas from the moment they enter the winding lobby of the Red Mansion.

"Don't worry, I've finally come to my senses. You said there weren't many people on the second floor, but Shopkeeper Wen insisted on trapping us on the first floor and making us sit here and wait?"

Someone immediately asked, "Didn't they say we'd have one-on-one receptions? Maybe they're short-staffed for the opening?"

"Not really." The woman who had spoken earlier smiled and pointed at Miss Zhang's counter. "I think Miss Wen is trying to drain our wallets! The one-on-one reception for distinguished guests is all fake. In reality, she's just trying to keep us here, bored, and always buying her sweet soups!"

The man exclaimed, "Goddess! No wonder Miss Wen can make money! My shops have been losing money for years. I have to ask Miss Wen how to turn losses into profits."

A lady nearby came up and said with a smile, "Then you should buy a few more bottles of Ruiguo juice and spend more time in the Red Mansion. Who knows, Miss Wen might even show you a way to make money for the sake of money."

Some people were also curious, "You say... there are so many things in this hall, what exactly is going on on the second floor? I heard that Miss Wen invited a lot of people to rehearse some storybook. Could it be that they are going to perform "The Legend of Jiaojiao" again?"

"No way. I'm tired of reading 'The Story of Jiao Jiao'! Now many storytellers in teahouses are also telling this story. I'm so tired of hearing it!"

As they were talking, a young woman in the same work clothes came down the stairs. She walked quickly over and locked her eyes with the lady sitting at the front with an impeccable smile on her face. "Respected Madam Bai, please come this way--"

This is on the second floor.

Although I felt a little uncomfortable occasionally hearing the phrase "Dear Madam X", after watching and hearing it a few more times, I began to feel comfortable, walked with more energy, and even began to vaguely look forward to what the scenery on the second floor would be like.

Soon, it was Miss Cao and Sister Zhu's turn, and the two of them walked up the stairs hand in hand.

Since she spent the money for two cups of milk tea, Sister Zhu felt that her back was straighter, her breathing was smoother, and she became more elegant and confident.

Sister Zhu summarized it as: "Since I paid for it, I should be on equal footing with these ladies!" The stairs on the second floor were unremarkable, with no particularly special scenery, but once you got to the second floor, it was truly eye-opening!

The guardrails of the entire second-floor corridor had been removed, and huge steps were built along the corridor, directly connecting to the courtyard on the first floor. The space between the first and second floors was filled with huge wooden steps, occupying most of the courtyard.

Each step is one meter wide and can be used for standing or sitting. There are small round tables and chairs lined up on the steps, as well as open parasols. At this moment, quite a few people are already sitting there.

Miss Cao recognized several of the ladies and was sighing that the opening of the Red Mansion today looked inconspicuous from the outside, but there was something special inside.

Sister Zhu had never seen this before and asked curiously, "Why does the chair look like this?"

The leading Red Mansion employee led the two people to a seat on the fifth step, and after inviting them to sit, he smiled and explained, "This is a sofa. It's unique to our Red Mansion. Our owner specially commissioned a skilled craftsman in the city to make it using wood, cotton, and animal hides, tailored to the body structure and curves of women. Try sitting on it."

Sister Zhu and Miss Cao sat on the same sofa.

The young lady with the name badge gently reached out and pressed Sister Zhu's shoulders, pushing her back. "This sofa has a curved backrest and a waist cushion that fits the curve of your back. It allows your entire back to fit perfectly with the fabric, allowing you to find the most comfortable sitting position and reduce fatigue."

When the other ladies heard the young lady's explanation, they also looked over frequently.

Most of the ladies here have seen the world, and even though everything in the Red Mansion is indeed new, they are not used to asking questions in such occasions. Instead, they took the opportunity to listen to the explanation of this noisy Sister Zhu.

"Our backrest is made of high-elastic cotton. It's thick and elastic, and it provides good support and rebound. At the same time, the armrests have been revised several times by our employer. Ladies, please try putting your hands on them and you'll find that the armrests are at the right height, without any pressure on your shoulders or neck."

"Our boss also took great pains to design the angle of the backrest."

"This angle is closest to the body's natural relaxed angle and can infinitely improve comfort."

Sister Zhu sat on the sofa, rubbing her butt back and forth, patting her thighs and saying, "Don't say it! It's really comfortable! The back of my head and waist don't feel any strain at all!"

Miss Cao sighed sincerely, "This Shopkeeper Wen is truly remarkable! Look at all the tricks she's come up with!"

Sister Zhu grinned, "If we could sit here for a while every afternoon, order a cup of that damn milk tea... and let the two girls sing and dance on the stage, wouldn't this be a brothel for us women?"

Rough words are not rough.

These words made the ladies on the steps laugh with their hands covering their lips.

Some people also looked worried.

Miss Cao saw the young lady from the Sun family gathered in the middle and immediately grabbed Sister Zhu. "Sister, please keep your voice down! I see quite a few young ladies from official families are here today!"
