Chapter 739 Tired but Happy

By the time everyone returned to the yard, it was already getting dark. Although they were all exhausted, they were still happy.

Although not all the work on the square was done, at least the trees had been planted.

After all, it was dozens of acres of land, and even if there were more people, it would be impossible to finish the work in one go.

What's more, some of the bluestone slabs and other things for paving the floor have not been made yet, so let's put them aside for the time being.

As soon as she returned to the yard, Qin Chuchu couldn't wait to go into the kitchen.

"Aunt Liu, what are we having for dinner?"

Without even washing his hands, he ran to Aunt Liu and looked at the sauced pork ribs she was holding, and immediately grinned.

“It smells so good!”

He quickly put his nose close to it and took a deep breath.

I didn’t have lunch and I’ve been busy all afternoon, so I’m really hungry now.

I really want to open my mouth and pick up a piece of pork ribs to fill my mouth.

Seeing the princess so greedy, Aunt Liu also smiled with her eyes curved.

"Princess, you must eat more later."

"Well, okay." Qin Chuchu nodded decisively.

Just as he was about to wash his hands by the sink, he saw Liu Qing busy at the stove and frowned again.

"Why is she there?"

She looked at Aunt Liu and said in a low voice.

I heard the Living King of Hell refuse before, so why is he still here now? Could it be that he really agreed to let this woman stay by his side?

The more I think about it, the angrier I get. I don’t even want to eat!

Seeing that the princess was unhappy, Aunt Liu glanced at Liu Qing and hurriedly explained.

"Oh, the prince asked her to work in the kitchen from now on."

When I got the news before, I was not very happy. After all, I didn't like this woman, not to mention that she had other intentions.

Working in the kitchen requires constant attention, and it's not as easy as before.

But this was the prince's order after all, and I think the prince must have his reasons.

"oh."

Qin Chuchu looked at Aunt Liu and nodded. So that's what happened.

Although the Living King of Hell did not keep her by his side, he still felt unhappy seeing her here every day.

The man who was sitting on the chair and looking at her had a smile on his face.

Looking at the way Chuchu looked at Liu Qing as if she were her love rival, it was obvious that she was jealous.

It seems that I hold a very important position in her heart, and I feel inexplicably good.

When Qin Chuchu came back after washing her hands, she saw the man's smug look and rolled her eyes at him.

“…………”

Look how proud he was of himself. He came up to me and sat down on me. I was just about to pull the chair away to get further away from him.

But as soon as the chair was lifted up, the man pulled it back to the front and stepped on it tightly with his big feet, making it impossible to move it.

“………………” She gritted her teeth.

I really wanted to slap this man, but I held back.

Don't look at him anymore! Just pick up your bowl and start eating.

Looking at Chuchu's puffed-up little face, the man suppressed a smile and started feeding her.

Although I was too lazy to look at the man's annoying look, I didn't refuse the food that was delivered to my door. There was no need to go against my stomach.

"Your Majesty, which one should we start working on first?"

Butler Liu looked at Han Muchen while eating the food in his mouth.

Now, some of the tools have been returned, and the rest will be shipped back one after another, so we can start work as appropriate.

"Hmm... Let's deal with the one on the border first!"

The man thought for a while before saying, after all, that place is far away, and the city gate over there is about to be built. After the moat and the road are completed, it will look nice too, so it is better to do the face-saving things first.

"Okay, then we'll open the border tomorrow. I'll notify them later."

Butler Liu nodded and continued to eat.

"Have the numbers for the other engineering teams been divided up?"

Han Muchen looked at Feng Yi in front of him again.

"It's been divided. It was finished this afternoon. We can start working as soon as the tools arrive."

Feng Yi was eating and talking at the same time. The number of people in each team had already been divided, and now they were just waiting for the tools to arrive.

"Well, that academy..."

Han Muchen nodded and was about to ask about the academy, but when he saw Tutor Sun fiddling with a large stack of papers, he swallowed the words that were about to come out.

After listening to the master's half-sentence, everyone looked up and followed his gaze to look at Tutor Sun.

I don't know what he was fiddling with, he was so meticulous that he didn't even hear what others said.

General Cheng on the side nudged Grand Tutor Sun.

"What about you?"

He stretched his neck again, wanting to see what was written on the papers.

"Hmm?" Tutor Sun came back to his senses.

Then he looked up at the crowd, his gaze falling on the man again.

"oh."

I am currently sorting out the list sent from Qingzhou Prefecture.

"What kind of list is this? Why are there so many people on it?"

General Cheng pointed at the densely packed names on the paper in front of him, wondering what they did.

Lord Zhao also stretched his neck to look over, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Oh, this is the list sent by the supervisors from various places in Qingzhou Prefecture. They are all educated and some have technical skills. I am currently screening them and plan to arrange an exam when I have time.

If possible, please finalize the list of teachers first, so that we won’t be caught off guard when the college starts classes.”

Although the college has not been built yet, it is better to settle the matter as long as possible, after all, there are still many things to do in the future.

Anyway, he has nothing to do now, and he is willing to do it.

Looking at the old man's smug look, Qin Chuchu started to flatter him very skillfully.

"You've been working so hard, Master. If you're too busy, I'll send you two more people."

Although he said this, looking at the old man's excited expression, you can tell that he will definitely refuse.

She actually guessed it right. After hearing what the princess said, Doctor Sun became even happier. He waved his hand and stroked his beard again.

"It's okay. I can still handle it. Besides, we have Dean Su to help. If we are short of manpower, it won't be too late to ask the princess to send someone else."

Although I have been very busy these two days, I am tired but happy. When I think about the fact that I have contributed to such a big project, it is worth it even if I am a little tired.

“…………”Everyone looked at each other.

From what Tutor Sun said, it seemed like he was the one in charge.

The princess had said in person that she wanted him to assist Dean Su, but from what she said just now, it seemed that she was treating him as a deputy.

Everyone looked at each other, trying to suppress the smile on their faces, and continued to eat with their heads down.

Qin Chuchu also tried to suppress the smile on her face. Seeing the old man so happy, she let him say whatever he wanted!

Tutor Sun was indeed very happy and wanted to skip meals just to sort out the lists.

I accidentally saw Xiaoshan sitting at the table next to me, and suddenly remembered that there was something important, so I quickly put down the list in my hand.

"By the way, Xiaoshan, how's the book I asked you to memorize going? You can't embarrass me this year!"

“…………”Everyone was stunned.

What does that mean? Xiaoshan is going to take the autumn exam this year!
