Chapter 66: Little Mouse
Chu Yunxi was going to prepare for the meal, so he took the two maids, Manhe and Shui Cui, to the warehouse where the materials were parked in the courtyard to count the amount of grain, and then he could start planning the question of how much grain to give up.
It was still raining outside, Manhe and Shui Cui held an umbrella for Chu Yunxi, and they didn't go far from the room when they saw a figure running over, and they hurriedly crowded under the umbrella, and they didn't recognize anyone at all.
When Manhe saw it, he said, "You kid doesn't know the rules, how can you squeeze under my lady's umbrella?"
The little boy ran out with them, and said to Chu Yunxi, "You said that I can stay and work and eat, is it true?"
Chu Yunxi said, "What did I lie to you about a child?"
The little boy nodded and said, "Okay, I want to stay, my name is Chengfei, you can call me whatever you want." ”
"Chengfei" Chu Yunxi read the name again, and said with a smile, "It's a good name." ”
Shui Cui asked curiously, "Then what's your last name?"
Cheng Fei said: "I don't have a surname. ”
Shui Cui was even more strange, and said, "How can there be a name without a surname, it's really weird." ”
Manhe said, "Isn't he just a strange person, and he doesn't know how to count etiquette." ”
Cheng Fei glanced at Manhe, raised his head and said, "Why don't I know how to count, you are not much better"
"I" Manhe's eyes widened when he heard this, and he said, "Miss, look, this kid actually said that slaves and maids don't know how to count. ”
Manhe grew up in Chu Mansion since he was a child, and grew up with the upbringing grandmother from the palace. Although Miss Pingli is not strict, she can be regarded as knowledgeable and knowledgeable.
Chengfei said: "I'm telling the truth. Since she is a princess, she must be married, why do you always call her Miss This is not the right name, where do you know what etiquette is"
Manhe has always called Chu Yunxi Miss, naturally he is used to it, although Chu Yunxi has married Li Mu, the king of Yingchuan, but Manhe never thought of changing his name, and he really asked this kid to pick out the reason for a while.
Chu Yunxi said, "Okay, I'm going to get some food, if you want to talk about it, just stay here and talk about it." ”
Chengfei was the first to say, "I'll go with me, I have a lot of strength and can help carry food." ”
The first batch of grain was brought with the convoy, and by this time it had all been transported into the warehouse of the government and piled up into a small mountain.
Although the grain was counted when it came, it should have been clear that there was no need to count it again. However, along the way, they also encountered many refugees from Chongfeng, so they went all the way to relief and distributed some food.
In this way, the amount of grain is not the same as the amount when leaving the capital, and how much is missing has to be counted again. If the number from the capital is followed, then half of the food will definitely be short of food and insufficient supply.
Chu Yunxi said, "Manhe, you go and call some guards to help move the grain, so that you can count it quickly." ”
Chu Yunxi only took two maids and a little boy, so naturally he couldn't do these jobs, and he had to get some labor.
Manhe listened to the young lady's instructions and immediately went to call the guards.
Some of the guards followed Li Mu to inspect, and the rest were in the mansion, and the first priority was naturally to protect the safety of the princess.
Soon, the guards began to count while carrying the food, and Chengfei also rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to help.
Manhe stood next to Chu Yunxi to help count, and said with a smile, "Miss, look, just now Cheng Fei looked like something, and I thought he was really as powerful as a cow." ”
Cheng Fei is not very old, he is old-fashioned, he seems to have a lot of little Jiujiu in his heart, he just said that he wanted to help, and he will help this time, but who expected that the grain was too heavy, he couldn't lift a bag by himself, and now he was dragging a belt of grain to compete, and he couldn't drag it anymore.
Chu Yunxi looked at it, and also amused him, and said, "How do you look at it, it's like a little mouse stealing grain"
Cheng Fei worked hard to carry a bag of grain, he was already sweating profusely, snorting and panting tiredly, and it seemed that he almost couldn't get up from sitting on the ground.
Chu Yunxi said, "Forget it, call Chengfei over and let him count here." ”
Manhe said: "Let Chengfei count the slaves, I'm afraid he will remember it." ”
While everyone was talking, they heard someone come in.
Zhou Shuhan walked into the warehouse, and seeing that everyone was busy, he found Chu Yunxi with sharp eyes and immediately walked over.
Zhou Shuhan said, "Princess, what are you doing?"
There was no need for Chu Yunxi to speak, Cheng Fei, who had just been called over there, had already spoken, and said, "Tsk, there is another guy here who doesn't know how to be polite." What kind of character are you calling the princess in your mouth, but you don't know how to salute, and your tone is quite arrogant. ”
Zhou Shuhan didn't think that there was a child here, and he was choked by a child, but he really lost it, so he had to kneel down and salute first, and said, "I've seen the princess." ”
"Guards Zhou were sent by the emperor to the prince, I'm just a little princess, how can I ask Guards Zhou to salute," Chu Yunxi said with a smile.
She said that she didn't dare, but Zhou Shuhan could hear that she was squeezing herself, so she hurriedly kowtowed and confessed.
The marriage between Chu Yunxi and Li Mu was appointed by the emperor. Besides, Chu Yunxi is Li Mu's concubine, and she is of a high grade, no matter how you say it, it is not something that a little guard of Zhou Shuhan can offend.
Zhou Shuhan didn't dare to compete with Chu Yunxi head-on, but secretly glanced at the little boy. Thinking that the child who came from nowhere, he dared to argue with himself.
Cheng Fei is naturally the child that Chu Yunxi rescued from the rain before, but now that his face has been washed and his clothes have changed, he is very clever and white, and Zhou Shuhan can't recognize him for a while.
Chu Yunxi said, "The prince ordered me to deal with the matter of the house, but it disturbed the Zhou guards, is it really mine." ”
"This matter of giving up food," Zhou Shuhan said, "It's heavy and rough work, how dare you bother you, princess." ”
Chu Yunxi narrowed his eyes, this week Shuhan didn't know what calculation he was making in his heart, and suddenly stopped himself from preparing the meal. But no matter what, Chu Yunxi felt that he had bad intentions and was uneasy.
Chu Yunxi said, "This is what the prince ordered, even if it is dirty work, tiring and rough work, then I am willing to do it." If Zhou guards have any objections, wait for the prince to come back, and then go to the prince and talk to him. ”
"This" Zhou Shuhan was blocked by Chu Yunxi, and seemed to be a little unwilling, but he didn't say anything more.
Chu Yunxi said, "I still have work here, so I'm so busy, so guard Zhou will go down first." "The chapter content is being restored in an effort to be restored, so please visit it later.
