"Good morning to you, miss Xu." Xu Jiaqi's room was entered by a woman donning simple maid clothes. She brought a tea pot with her, and moved over to the classic tea table on the floor. Pouring a cup of tea delicately, she invited the lady to enjoy the fragrant tea brewed not long ago.
This world was heavily invested in tea, even more than what Xu Jiaqi had ever seen in her whole life. It was surprising, since the technology was not as advanced as her previous worlds. Somehow, they were able to cultivate drinks that were significantly more refined and enjoyable, suitable to her tastes.
"Thank you as always, Lin." Xu Jiaqi put up a bright smile as she sipped the drink.
Lin was the maid's name. She was the servant she ended up choosing to attend to her out of the many Xie Yongrui ended up deploying to her. Clever and extraordinary, with qualities that you wouldn't expect for a normal servant.
