The butler immediately replied, "Alright, I'll give the instructions right away. If anyone wants to take time off during the Spring Festival, approve their leave."
Cecilia Gu smiled and nodded, saying, "Also, for those who choose to stay and work, make sure to take care of their families. Gifts and greetings are a must. Our Yin family can't keep someone's child here and neglect their mother back home."
The butler smiled, "Yes, young madam. I'll go carry out your orders now."
After Cecilia Gu gave a few more simple instructions, she adjourned the meeting.
Just as she took the warm milk from the maid and hadn't even had two sips, someone reported, "Young madam, Miss Yehe is here to see you."
Yehe?
She's here to see me?
Shouldn't she be looking for Jiang Yihai?
Cecilia Gu nodded, "Invite her in."
A moment later, Yehe arrived. She quickly scanned the room, didn't find the person she was looking for, then greeted Cecilia Gu, "Mrs. Yin, I'm so sorry to disturb you."
"Please, have a seat," Cecilia Gu nodded. "Is there something you need from me?"
"Ah... yes." Yehe sat down a bit nervously in front of Cecilia Gu. "I'm here on my father's orders to deliver the New Year's Eve gifts early."
As Yehe spoke, she took out a gift list and placed it on the table.
Cecilia Gu was a bit surprised. "There's usually someone assigned to this. Why come to me directly?"
Yehe bit her lip and said, "I... I have a small request."
"Go ahead," Cecilia Gu nodded.
"I'm about to turn twenty-four. I'd like to invite Miss Yun Morong to my birthday party." Yehe, a little shy, took out an invitation and placed it on the table. "I wouldn't dare trouble you, Mrs. Yin, and besides, Mr. Yin wouldn't agree to you going to such a lively place. Last time at the Jiang residence, I hit it off with Miss Yun Morong and wanted to be friends with her. I also know she's your assistant now, so I wanted to ask for your permission."
"So your birthday is coming up," Cecilia Gu smiled. "Let me wish you a happy birthday in advance! As for Morong, she's right here. You can give her the invitation yourself in a moment."
After saying this, Cecilia Gu immediately told the maid behind her, "Go ask Morong to come over."
Yun Morong soon arrived.
