Chapter 85: Jian He spent the whole day washing clothes, and Gu Zengxing felt distressed
You silly girl, if I don’t make you submit, I’m not called Wang Huifen!
After Wang Huifen finished speaking, she took the females away again.
"Where are you going?" Why do you let her do all the work alone?
Isn't this clearly bullying?
"Let's go buy the ingredients for lunch. If you can make breakfast for one or two hundred people in an hour, then this amount of clothes shouldn't be a problem."
"Aunt Wang, are you making things difficult for me?"
Aunt Wang was stunned. She didn't expect Jianhe to say it so directly.
"No, washing clothes is such a simple job, how can you say it's difficult?"
"What about breakfast just now? I was alone, and there were 100 or 200 people having breakfast, and you locked the door and wouldn't let them in to help me. What were you thinking?"
"I..." Wang Huifen started to speak but was interrupted by Jianhe's harsh voice.
"If I delayed their meal, you would blame me. How did I offend you to make it so difficult for you?"
"You! You are slandering me!"
"You know best whether I'm slandering you or not. The princess asked me to come here, and I can go back and tell her how you've made things difficult for me. Do you think she'll believe you or me?"
Wang Huifen was anxious: "Why did you tell the princess?!"
"Just based on what you just did"
"Aunt Wang, Shangguan Jianhe is from the Shangguan family after all, we..."
"Don't I know that she is from the Shangguan family?" Wang Huifen scolded the female who came up to persuade her and sent her away.
"Since you like to butt in so much, then why don't you stay and help her wash these clothes. Oh, there seems to be some left over from yesterday. You're not a newbie anymore, so you should know where they are, right?"
The little female was stunned and nodded silently.
Wang Huifen led everyone away, and Jianhe said to the little female, "Thank you."
"Ah?" The little female was stunned. "You're welcome."
"Aunt Wang took away the key to the laundry room. We may really have to wash it by hand." Not knowing how long it would take, the little female frowned.
The little female is called Luna, she is younger than Zhenhe. There is no one else in her family except her brother who is a soldier, so she chose to come here, thinking that she could help her brother a little.
The two men carried the clothes to the edge of the pool, and Jianhe found a few wooden barrels, added water and soap powder.
Just as Luna was about to roll up her sleeves and rub it, Zhenhe stopped her.
"You're like me"
I saw Jianhe take out a wooden stick, twist the rope onto the stick with his hands, and then put the stick into the bucket.
The moment the hand left, the wooden stick was pulled by the deformed rope, moving the clothes in the bucket and turning it into a simple washing machine.
"You are so smart!" Luna looked at Zhenhe in surprise.
Zhi He couldn't help but feel proud: "How could that be~"
Lunch was prepared by Wang Huifen. Looking at the bland soup and stewed meat, the soldiers looked at each other in confusion.
Liu Hao took a bite and frowned. After just one meal, Jianhe had spoiled them.
"Aunt Wang, where is Miss Shangguan?"
"What's wrong with the laundry? Do you have something to do with her?"
"Next time, ask her if she has any other recipes. She cooks delicious meat."
Upon hearing this, Wang Huifen's face darkened.
After lunch, the soldiers rested and then started patrolling again.
"Why didn't Miss Shangguan make lunch? I was on patrol this morning, and all I could think about was the meat she made that morning. It smelled so good~"
"Didn't I say she was washing clothes? But why didn't I hear the washing machine?"
"It's broken."
"How is that possible? I just saw Aunt Wang taking her apron in to wash."
"You mean Aunt Wang is making things difficult for Miss Shangguan?"
“I didn’t say that.”
Liu Hao, who was standing behind them, heard every word the two men said.
He also discovered that Aunt Wang seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for Shangguan Jianhe, but any one of the things Shangguan Jianhe had done was enough to earn her 100 lashes.
This little punishment is nothing surprising, but... her craftsmanship is indeed good.
Jianhe washed clothes until dark and finally had a chance to take a breath, but she didn't leave any of the rice in the pot for them.
Luna was almost crying with anger.
Shangguan Zhenhe comforted her: "It's okay, we can eat better."
"Better?" Luna wiped her tears.
Shangguan Qianhe took Luna to the small flat building for rest, and the door was indeed locked. What a ruthless move.
"I'm sorry for getting you into trouble," Zhihe apologized to Luna. Luna pouted and said, "Then make me something delicious. The breakfast you made today was really delicious."
"good!"
Zhenhe and Luna left together.
Wang Huifen, who had been pretending to be asleep, got up and said, "I have something to go out for. You... no one should open the door for them."
"Aunt Wang, it's really cold at night. It's okay for Shangguan Zhenhe, but what if Nana gets sick?"
"Who let that little bitch follow her all the time?" Wang Huifen said, but she was still worried and locked the door directly.
The other females in the room were stunned, "Why is she like this? What should we do if we need to go to the bathroom?"
"that is!"
Wang Huifen came outside the camp, where a man in a black robe had been waiting for a long time.
"How's it going? Did you do as I asked?"
"Don't worry, Madam. I made her wash clothes all day and didn't let her go into the house to rest. She definitely couldn't stand it."
Wang Ran turned around, her plump red lips curled up slightly, "Well done"
“That money…”
“It will be delivered to your home.”
"Crack!" The sound of a branch breaking was heard. Luna looked at Zhihe in horror. Zhihe hugged her waist and suddenly fell down.
A bird flew by, and Wang Ran and Wang Huifen both breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, go back quickly. As long as you can make her complain bitterly and cry that she can't do it anymore, you can go to Shangguan's house and get whatever you want."
"Thank you, Madam!"
After Wang Huifen and Wang Ran left, Luna and Jianhe stood up.
"That's yours..."
"stepmother"
Luna sighed, "I thought you embarrassed Aunt Wang this morning by cooking and she was angry, but I didn't expect..."
"Wang Huifen and I are strangers. She must have been instructed by someone else to do this to me. I have already guessed it."
"bass!"
A sharp sword suddenly appeared and was placed between Zhenhe and Luna.
The two were stunned and turned around to see that it was Gu Zengxing.
"Why are you here?" Zhenhe breathed a sigh of relief. She was almost scared to death by him.
Luna was also startled, but she finally recovered after hearing what Zhenhe and Gu Zengxing were saying. "Do you know each other?"
"Gu Zengxing, her beastly husband"
"Her beastly husband?" Luna's eyes widened, and her eyes moved back and forth between the two of them. "Oh, right, you are the one from the Far East... the one..."
She can't remember.
Gu Zengxing touched Zhenhe's cold hand, a flash of heartache in his eyes that he himself didn't even notice, "Have you been washing clothes all day?"
"Not really. She wouldn't let me use the washing machine, so I made a simple one myself."
The man folded his hands and placed them on his lips. When he breathed out, Jianhe's heart skipped a beat.
"What are you doing?" Zhen He wanted to pull his hand back, but Gu Zengxing held it tightly. "Nuan Nuan"
