When Mu Chun came back, Yun Qianmeng had already washed up and was lying on the bed with her eyes closed to rest!
Seeing Yun Qianmeng's exhausted face, Mu Chun wanted to blow out the candle and leave quietly, but unexpectedly Yun Qianmeng asked, "How is it?"
Hearing Yun Qianmeng's question, Mu Chun came to the bedside holding a candlestick and whispered what he had heard!
"Miss, it seems that the master still loves Concubine Su very much in his heart!" Seeing that Yun Qianmeng said nothing after listening to her report, Mu Chun felt a little indignant!
It was obvious that the young lady was injured today and was humiliated by Concubine Su, but the master just blamed Concubine Su and then let her go. It seems that tonight's dinner was also instructed by Concubine Su!
"Mu Chun, don't say this in front of others!" Yun Qianmeng felt a warmth in her heart when she heard Mu Chun speaking up for her!
Although he had only been in contact with Mu Chun for half a day, in this prime minister's mansion controlled by Su Qing, there was no one else except Mu Chun who could be so loyal to him!
If Yunmeng came to the Western Chu Kingdom, the only person he could trust so far is Muchun!
Therefore, she must not let Mu Chun speak out of turn. After all, he is the only trustworthy person around her!
Mu Chun obviously hadn't expected Yun Qianmeng to care about her in return. A look of gratitude appeared on her face. She immediately nodded and said yes. Then she went to the dressing table and took out the remaining small change from the small wooden box on it. She counted the amount and said, "Miss, how about I go to the market to buy some fresh vegetables tomorrow and cook them for you!"
Yun Qianmeng looked at Mu Chun's lowered right hand, noticed the small silver coins on his palm, and asked, "How many days until the monthly salary is distributed?"
Mu Chun was slightly taken aback, then replied, "The third day of every month! Today is the twenty-eighth!"
Yun Qianmeng nodded slightly after hearing this, and after a moment's thought, she spoke, "Keep this silver for now! Eat with the kitchen staff for the next few days! You're tired today, so take Shui'er and Bing'er downstairs to rest!"
Mu Chun understood immediately after hearing what she said. She thought that the young lady must have made preparations in advance. After all, despite the master's words, it would be easy for Aunt Su to make things difficult for them. She then wrapped the silver coins in a handkerchief, put them back into the wooden box, and walked out of Yun Qianmeng's bedroom holding the candlestick!
Mu Chun's departure did not make Yun Qianmeng fall asleep immediately. At this moment, her thoughts were clearer than ever before!
However, the clearer the thoughts became, the heavier the worries in Yun Qianmeng's heart became!
As a modern person, she traveled to this time and space that did not exist in history. Because the predecessor of this body had never cared about worldly affairs, she knew almost nothing about the people of this era!
Now that she only has Mu Chun by her side, how can she escape from these mundane affairs and live a peaceful life...
Perhaps it was due to excessive blood loss, but Yun Qianmeng gradually fell into a dream while constantly pondering...
However, before dawn the next day, there were bursts of noisy footsteps outside...
Yun Qianmeng sat up with one hand supporting her forehead, squinted her eyes and glanced out the window, then called out to the door in a slightly hoarse voice, "Mu Chun!"
"Miss, you're awake!" Hearing the call, Mu Chun immediately pushed the door open and walked in, holding water for washing face and a silk handkerchief in her hands!
Yun Qianmeng rubbed her aching forehead and asked grumpily, "What time is it now? Why is there so much noise outside?"
"My lady, Butler Zhao led the craftsmen into Qiluo Garden at three quarters past three in the morning. He said that he was under the order of the Prime Minister and was specially repairing the house for you!" After saying that, Mu Chun helped Yun Qianmeng get out of bed and carefully helped her wash her face and dress!
However, Yun Qianmeng kept sneering in her heart. It seemed that Butler Zhao was a very narrow-minded person. He had suffered a loss at her hands yesterday, and today he was trying to get it back in any way he could!
He knew in his heart that the patient needed rest, but he ordered people to start working before dawn. It was obviously intentional!
But, does he really think that he is a soft persimmon that can be squeezed and twisted at will?
If she doesn't make him really afraid of her, her position as the captain of the drug enforcement team will be in vain!
Pushing open the wooden window, Yun Qianmeng stood on the second floor and through the dim light saw a dozen workers carrying some tools into Qiluo Garden. Butler Zhao stood nearby, loudly directing them, "Hurry up, hurry up! Being able to work in the Prime Minister's Residence is a blessing you earned in your past lives! Be careful! This is the eldest lady's courtyard. Don't wake her up!"
I don't know whether it was intentional or not, but Butler Zhao specifically mentioned "young lady" to the group of young craftsmen who were rushing to work, as if he had a hidden meaning!
Such obvious words, coupled with the fact that there were two servants standing at the entrance of the garden, made Mu Chun, who was standing behind Yun Qianmeng, frown. It seemed that this housekeeper Zhao really had bad intentions!
"Let's go downstairs and meet him!" Yun Qianmeng watched Butler Zhao finish his performance with a cold eye, then closed the wooden window and slowly walked towards the courtyard...
The appearance of Yun Qianmeng caused the group of young people who were working enthusiastically to stop what they were doing!
They had never seen a lady from a prominent family before, but today they had the opportunity to see the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She was even more beautiful than the one in the painting that year. Their young faces couldn't help but blush...
Seeing everyone like this, Butler Zhao's eyes flashed with venom. He then quickly stepped forward, bowed slightly to Yun Qianmeng, and said respectfully, "Young lady, why are you up so early? Did we wake you up?"
Yun Qianmeng waited until Butler Zhao had finished his tricks before speaking indifferently, "Butler Zhao is really hardworking. He's already busy before daybreak!"
Seeing that Yun Qianmeng had nothing else to say today, Butler Zhao couldn't help but look proud, but his words were very humble. "Miss, you are too kind! This is the order of the Prime Minister, and it is also what we servants should do. I am afraid that I disturbed your rest and made me feel bad!"
Having said that, Butler Zhao didn't think so in his heart. If Yun Qianmeng seized on this point to complain to the Prime Minister today, he would have a reason and evidence!
After hearing this, Yun Qianmeng nodded. Seeing that the dozen or so craftsmen were still staring at her, she couldn't help but feel impatient. Then she asked coldly, "That being said, is Butler Zhao still asleep? He actually ignored what my father said yesterday!"
Such a casual remark caused a huge uproar in Butler Zhao's heart. However, he was very cunning and immediately dug up what Yun Xuanzhi had said in front of him yesterday, but he could not find any handle!
Seeing that Butler Zhao didn't respond for a long time, Yun Qianmeng's expression suddenly became stern, and her eyes flashed with coldness. She shouted in a cold voice, "How dare you, Butler Zhao, bring a strange man into the courtyard of the Prime Minister's female relatives without permission? What is your crime?"
After being scolded by Yun Qianmeng, Butler Zhao was stunned for a moment. It took him a while to remember Yun Xuanzhi's instructions yesterday. His expression immediately relaxed and he said with a smile, "Miss, the Prime Minister did ask me to renovate Qiluo Garden. I was just doing what the master wanted! Why make such a fuss, young lady?"
