After breakfast, Jin Shuai had already made arrangements for the matters he needed to handle in the past few days, so he didn't have any further instructions. He was about to get up to go and learn the art of playing the zither from Xie Tianxiang when a servant rushed in to report that Qiu Shui, Cai Zhu, and Lü Zhu had returned and were waiting in the courtyard. Hearing this news, Jin Shuai's eyes lit up instantly, and a look of joy appeared on his face. Without hesitation, he led Xie Tianxiang towards his courtyard.

As they stepped into the courtyard, they saw Qiu Shui standing there gracefully. As soon as Jin Shuai entered the courtyard, Qiu Shui immediately led the two people beside her forward and respectfully bowed, saying, "This servant greets Your Excellency."

Seeing this, Jin Shuai quickly smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No need for formalities, please rise. Are you sisters all well? There was no need to rush here."

Qiu Shui nodded slightly and replied softly, "Reporting to Your Excellency, the sisters have all recovered completely. We originally intended to come together to thank Your Excellency for saving our lives, but I was worried that having so many people at once would disturb Your Excellency, so I came ahead to ask if it would be convenient for the sisters to come together to express our gratitude."

Okay, here is the expanded version based on your input:

“Alright, everyone come over tomorrow! I’d like to see your skills too,” Jin Shuai said with a smile and a relaxed tone. His handsome face was particularly dazzling in the sunlight, making him instantly likable.

"Yes, Your Excellency." Qiu Shui nodded slightly and answered respectfully. Her voice was clear and melodious, as sweet as a nightingale singing in a valley.

Looking at Qiu Shui before him, Jin Shuai suddenly had an idea and asked, "Qiu Shui! Do you and your sisters have any specific plans for the future?"

Qiu Shui sighed softly and answered truthfully, "Your Excellency, they have just recovered from a serious illness and are still weak. They don't have many plans at the moment. They only know some musical skills, so they will probably have to go to the theater to make a living."

Upon hearing this, Jin Shuai's eyes lit up, and he quickly said, "If you're going to a place like that, you might as well follow me. I'm thinking of having you lead the organization of a band. What do you think? Don't worry, I will never make you do any lowly things like serving drinks. You will only need to play music."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Shui was taken aback at first, then exchanged a glance with Cai Zhu and Lü Zhu beside her, all three of them beaming with joy. Immediately afterward, they knelt down without hesitation and said in unison, "Qiu Shui (Cai Zhu/Lü Zhu), on behalf of the sisters, thank you, Lord, for your great kindness in taking us in."

Seeing this, Jin Shuai quickly reached out to help them up, feigning displeasure as he said, "Alright, alright, don't go around with such grand gestures. Don't do this again, or I'll get angry! From now on, you are my employees, with room and board provided, and you'll even get paid. I'll have the butler arrange for someone to bring your sisters over." With that, Jin Shuai's face broke into a warm smile once more.

With a smile, Jin Shuai introduced Xie Tianxiang to another woman: "This is Miss Xie Tianxiang, she is a musical prodigy!" The two women greeted each other amicably, their eyes revealing curiosity and admiration for one another.
