Chapter 25: Becoming the Boss
Hearing this, Mu Anle couldn't wait to roll his eyes at Qi Junyi, and told him if he could not meddle in his affairs, the shopkeeper of Chun Xilou was her and not Qi Junyi, why was he so anxious?
But after all, the thing she cares about the most now is in Qi Junyi's hands, so she can only smile doggedly, "Your Royal Highness, of course the Spring Regret Building is still under construction, we are already in a hurry, but we can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." β
"In other words, how long will it take to be built?" Qi Junyi's eyes suddenly became fierce, and he looked at Mu Anle without any emotion, "You'd better give me an accurate deadline." β
Mu Anle secretly scolded him countless times in his heart, but his face was still cowardly.
It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.
Let Qi Junyi bully herself first, one day she will retaliate back, and then she will definitely let Qi Junyi cry and beg herself to let him go.
"It's going to take about a month and a half." Mu Anle smiled and narrowed her eyes slightly, at this time, where did she look like a shopkeeper, she was simply a dog's leg, "This is definitely the fastest time, if it is fast, I am afraid that the building built will also cut corners, and it will not last long." β
"I see."
Hearing this, Qi Junyi's eyes eased a little, and before Mu Anle could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly heard footsteps and conversations coming from outside.
Just listening to the voice, it seems that there is more than one person.
Knowing that someone was coming, Mu Anle couldn't help but be a little flustered, if she let others see her in the same room with Qi Junyi, she didn't know how to explain it.
"World ...... His Royal Highness, did you hear someone coming, you should hide quickly, if you let others know that the two of us are together, I don't know what kind of rumors will circulate in the capital! β
"Prince An has promised you and my family affairs, you are now my fiancΓ©e, what are you afraid of?"
Of course, Qi Junyi heard it before her, but he didn't care.
But Mu Anle was different, her face was full of sadness, and she was about to cry when she saw that she was in a hurry, "This is not the same, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World should hide first, I promise that I will compensate you well in the future, okay?" β
God, she didn't say that she had to marry this damn Qi Junyi, so Mu Anle didn't want to ruin her reputation at all, but she couldn't say these words directly.
Just when she was struggling and scared, a voice suddenly sounded outside the house, "Lord Anle, the housekeeper has transferred us over, thank you so much." β
"It's coming!"
Mu Anle's expression was awe-inspiring, she couldn't care about it so much, so she had to turn around and walk out of the room immediately, turn around and close the door tightly.
When he turned again, he saw two men and two women standing in the courtyard.
She knew these two guards, and it was the two who talked to her when she came to King An's mansion, and Prince An did transfer the two here according to her request, but she was extremely angry with the two maids.
"You are ......"
Mu Anle looked at the two maids and couldn't help frowning, but before she could finish speaking, the girls had already knelt on the ground.
"Back to the county lord of Anle, the slave maid's name is Leng Yue, and she is the maid selected by the housekeeper to serve you."
"Back to the county lord of Anle, the slave's name is Leng Xiang, just like Sister Leng Yue, she is the maid selected by the housekeeper to serve you."
Mu Anle nodded lightly, and at the same time remembered the arrogance of the girl before, since she did not appear here now, presumably the people in Anwangfu already knew what she had done.
"You two get up first, I looked at your faces, I don't seem to have seen you before, could it be that you just came here?"
"Yes, the county lord, both of us are housekeepers who just bought into the mansion, Leng Xiang is my cousin, we have depended on each other since childhood, and being able to come to King An's Mansion to serve you is a blessing that we have cultivated for several lifetimes."
Leng Yue bowed slightly to Mu Anle, she kept her head down from beginning to end, but her speech was neither humble nor arrogant, she was very organized, and she felt very comfortable.
And Leng Xiang beside her raised her head from time to time and looked at Mu Anle curiously, she always had a smile on her face, but she didn't seem to have malicious intentions, maybe she was just curious.
At least from the current point of view, Mu Anle still likes these two people.
"Since you live here in the future, you don't have to be too restrained with me, but there are some things that need to be said and done, I don't think I need to remind you, you should also know."
"Yes."
The two replied in unison, and Mu Anle nodded.
Then she turned her gaze back to the two guards, who were smiling happily.
"Since I've transferred you here as agreed, shouldn't you introduce you to me?"
"Back to the county lord, the subordinate is named Zhang Qi."
"The subordinate is named Zhang Ji."
"From now on, my subordinates should protect the county lord thoroughly, and please rest assured."
Hearing this, Mu Anle couldn't help but squint his eyes and nodded at them with satisfaction. She didn't know why, she was always a little dark in her heart, as if now she suddenly became the boss.
This feeling is a little different from being a shopkeeper in Chun Xilou, after all, the shopkeeper has to provide salaries to his subordinates, and now she is the lord of a country, this is an insurmountable class in status!
"You don't have to be so restrained in the future, since you are here with me, it is your home, so you can do it yourself."
She waved her hand at them, remembering that Qi Junyi was still in the house, so she quickly pushed the door and walked in.
Seeing this, Leng Xiang Leng Yue, who was behind her, also hurriedly followed her.
"County Lord, I heard that this courtyard is your first time staying today, there must be many places that need to be cleaned, you just sit, and the two of us will clean it!"
Leng Xiang rushed forward with a smile, she followed Mu Anle's footsteps in a hurry, seeing that she was about to walk into the door with her, Mu Anle's heart almost rose to her throat.
Mom, if she finds out that there is a man in this house, then what is it?
"No, no, the house is very clean and doesn't need to be cleaned."
Mu Anle hurriedly waved at her, but she couldn't bear that Leng Xiang was impatient, she actually broke in directly, and at the same time, Mu Anle almost didn't scream.
However, when Leng Xiang looked around and looked at Mu Anle again, he showed a sweet smile.
"The county lord is right, this house is indeed very clean, it seems that it really doesn't need to be cleaned."
Mu Anle was slightly stunned, and then looked stiffly at the place where Qi Junyi was standing just now, only to realize that it was empty now, leaving almost no traces.
Only the silver token was placed on the small table beside it, and it looked so inconspicuous that it seemed like it would never be discovered without careful inspection.
At this moment, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
