Jiang Xiaoxiao told the two people to stand up and asked them to notify the others to hold a meeting here as she had something to instruct.
In just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the courtyard was gradually filled with thirty to forty people.
They were all dressed like ordinary people and would go unnoticed in a crowd.
However, it was clear that each one of them was clever, capable, and articulate, maintaining their composure as they entered the courtyard. Some were people Jiang Xiaoxiao had seen before, while others were completely unfamiliar to her.
Yet they all shared one common trait: the moment they entered, they would immediately kneel and express their gratitude to Jiang Xiaoxiao, their eyes filled with appreciation and excitement, as if meeting a notable figure. Jiang Xiaoxiao was somewhat moved by their actions.
These ancient people were so honest and sincere; even the smallest favor seemed monumental to them.
