[X] Talk with your mother and Zhengui, select the best among your household for the first tour of the garden (Zhengui's cult trait leans toward exclusivity and tighter bonds. Alters LQ's choices for Power expression)
I prefer the idea of rewarding the best and motivating the rest. Plus, maybe this option will lead to the development of a handful of prominent and competent members of the household. Whether cultivator or mortal, I think subordinates are interesting characters to have in a story, and necessary to really drive home that Ling Qi is a noble with her own base of power outside cultivation and allies.
