After picking the chives and peeling the green peas, Mu Run left the kitchen yard and went to the front yard.
She kept her head down and appeared obedient throughout the journey, but her eyes were actually scanning her surroundings.
As she passed through the hanging flower gate, the guards stopped her. "Who are you? Where are you going?"
"I am Jiuge, a kitchen helper. I go to the outer garden to help tidy up the weeds in the lotus pond."
"Go."
Mu Run passed through the hanging flower gate and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The flowers in the garden are vibrant and fragrant. Clumps of green bamboo, with many bamboo shoots sprouting from their roots, also create a beautiful scene.
As we passed a patch of low shrubs and flowers, a soft, rustling sound arose.
Mu Run stopped and looked in the direction of the sound...
But before she could see what was making the sound, she felt a 'whoosh' as a fluffy gray ball flew into her arms.
She was startled, and then instinctively wanted to throw it away.
"Meow~" the fluffy ball meowed.
Mu Run, who was about to throw it away, immediately hugged it tightly again.
Staring in utter shock at the dull gray ball of fur in his hand, he exclaimed, "Tea Treasure?"
"Meow~" the fluffy ball meowed happily.
Mu Run laughed too, "Really? How did you get here?"
Cha Bao rubbed against her, only getting her clothes dirty, before meowing a few times.
Mu Run: "..." I don't understand.
"You're filthy, let me give you a bath first." Mu Run immediately put everything else aside, his eyes only on Cha Bao.
Cha Bao seemed very tired and fell asleep in Mu Run's arms in no time.
I stroked its big, round ears. "Never mind, you should go to sleep first. You can take a bath after you wake up."
The tea bag wasn't big, so Mu Run wrapped it in a handkerchief and tucked it into her pocket, making it barely noticeable.
“Third-class maid over there, come here.” A maid dressed in light green called out to Mu Run.
Mu Run replied, "Yes. May I ask what your instructions are, elder sister?"
Those dressed in light green were first-class maids, who mostly served their masters.
"The young master is going to hold a banquet in the garden, and the pavilion needs to be cleaned. Go and wipe it inside and out. If you dare to slack off, you'll be in big trouble."
Her skin? Her skin is perfectly fine! These people, why are they all the same? They threaten people when they ask them to do work, can't they just talk properly?
Mu Run rolled her eyes inwardly and replied, "I'm from the kitchen. I'm here to clean the lotus pond, so I'm afraid I can't take care of the pavilion."
"Work has stopped at the lotus pond. Go and clean the pavilion first. I'll tell Granny Su later."
The subtext was that if she didn't do her job well, she would complain to Granny Su about her.
Mu Run: "...Yes."
When you're under someone's roof, it's better to mind your own business.
Mu Run entered the pavilion, glanced around, and then looked frustrated again, "How can we do it without tools?"
Since she was tired from walking, Mu Run sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion to rest her legs and, while doing so, rubbed her fingers on the stone table...
It was spotless, without a speck of dust.
After examining it carefully again, I couldn't see anything dirty, and there wasn't even a single cobweb on the roof beam of the pavilion.
"There's absolutely no need to clean."
Mu Run ignored the first-class maid's instructions.
He pulled the tea baby, wrapped in a handkerchief, from his sleeve. The little thing was fast asleep. "Tea baby, you didn't come all the way here, did you?"
From Bianyun Village to the capital, it's nearly three thousand li.
