248, Take Them All (1 Update)
What is Xiaoyue’s real na? Where does she co from?
In the days to co, I must be extrely cautious and careful, not to let her discover my secret or fall into any traps she has set.
Before I can expose her backer, I need to play along with this act well.
Whether I’ll be a leading actor or a terrible one depends on whether I want to survive or not.
As Zhinuan thought this, she tidied up the room properly and then went to help Yuanbao clean up Li Hengyi’s room. After all, there are differences between n and won, and Yuanbao, though ticulous, was still a man, and Li Hengyi disdained his service.
Especially since Zhinuan volunteered to help, Yuanbao was then sent to boil water and make tea.
“Yes!” Yuanbao ran off quickly.
Zhinuan watched, snorted softly, and began to tidy up Li Hengyi’s kang bed.
She lifted the mat, swept the kang carefully, and then took the bamboo mat out to wash and air dry.
Zhinuan was very nimble with her hands and feet, cleaning while humming a tune, and seed to be in a good mood.
“…” Li Hengyi watched, quite surprised.
She had been feeling unwell just before.
He didn’t say much and went to play with the three pets.
Throwing a cloth ball, the three animals scrambled for it, bringing it back to Li Hengyi and repeating the process.
Xiaoyue stood by, hesitating for a mont before approaching Li Hengyi, “Brother Li…”
“You should call Young Master Li from now on!” Li Hengyi said sternly.
Brother Li, it was simply too cloying.
It was uncomfortable to hear.
“…” Xiaoyue was stunned and her eyes reddened slightly as she replied softly, “Yes, Young Master Li!”
She stood aside, not daring to move recklessly.
Zhinuan cleaned the room a second ti, wiping it down before she left the room.
Seeing the two interacting awkwardly, she didn’t say much.
“Sister Zhinuan, can I help you?” Xiaoyue offered.
“No need, I’m done with everything!” Zhinuan laughed lightly, avoiding Xiaoyue.
When Yuanbao ca back, she handed him the basin, “Ask the kitchen if we can borrow it for a while, if possible, I want to cook sothing later!”
“Do you need to go out to buy groceries? There’s a temple fair nearby, and there are many vendors!” Yuanbao suggested.
“Sure!” Zhinuan agreed without hesitation and then asked Xiaoyue, “Xiaoyue, are you coming?”
To go or not to go? Xiaoyue thought for a while before saying, “I won’t go!”
Zhinuan patted her on the shoulder, “Then you stay at the inn, and I will bring you back sothing to eat!”
She didn’t say anything more to persuade her.
After cleaning the room, Zhinuan went to get a rope, placed a saddle on Dahuang, and hung baskets on both sides, one for Routuan and one for the gray wolf.
Fearing the crowd at the temple fair, that they might scare people or get trampled, it was safer and more convenient to watch over just one of them on Dahuang’s back.
Li Hengyi, Zhinuan, and Yuanbao left the house, followed by a few more people for protection.
Perhaps because of the temple fair, it was really bustling, with all kinds of stalls, hand-made clay figurines, colored beautifully, and very cute.
Zhinuan found them irresistibly adorable.
She stepped forward to pick one up for a closer look, and felt another, hesitating over which to buy.
Li Hengyi, standing behind her, said, “Get them all!”
“…” Zhinuan looked up at Li Hengyi.
Although these trinkets weren’t expensive, still, buying them all felt sowhat extravagant.
“You can buy them and use them as rewards for the children in the village if they study hard,” Li Hengyi suggested, cutting off any refusal from Zhinuan.
“…” A light bulb went off in Zhinuan’s head.
Right, she could buy them as a reward. That would encourage the children to study harder.
