429. Chapter 429 Suspicion in the Liuli Court Eight
Magpie originally wanted to eat something with her hands and get over it. But how could Hua Xiaogu keep her idle? Naturally, she was dragged over to work as a coolie. Fruit snacks, tea and scented tablets, plus the decoration of the venue and the food for the banquet.
It was confirmed that although he didn’t have to do it himself, Hua Xiaogu just listened to people’s reports and ordered people to work, which took a lot of effort.
The weather was originally in early June, so it wasn't too hot, but after working hard all morning, Hua Xiaogu even felt that his back was a little damp.
The magpie carelessly fanned the wind with his hand and muttered: "The weather is getting better today, but suddenly it's very hot. I'm going to hide away and go to the small garden to cool off before anyone comes."
Hua Xiaogu also took a breath and stretched out his hand to pull the magpie: "I'll go with you and take a look at how they arranged it. Yesterday I thought it was a bit extravagant to put ice cubes in the cellar today, but now I think it's appropriate."
With that said, the two of them walked out from the kitchen to the small garden.
In the glazed courtyard, all the people coming and going at the moment were servants setting up tables and chairs. Across the pool, the troupe invited from the stage had already moved their belongings to the stage.
As soon as he entered the small garden, Hua Xiaogu felt a sense of coolness.
"Huh, it's really cool." Hua Xiaogu said, and walked towards Liuli Court. When the servants along the way saw Hua Xiaogu, they all stopped what they were doing and saluted her.
"The five tables set up in the glazed courtyard are all for guests with high status. We must not make any mistakes." Hua Xiaogu gave a few instructions, then looked up at the glazed roof, frowned and turned to the magpie.
Said: "This place is nice to look at, but it is too transparent and the sun can shine straight down. On the contrary, it seems that it is even hotter in the glazed courtyard than outside."
The magpie nodded: "Yes, it's much hotter inside than outside, but it's transparent from all sides, so there should be some wind coming in."
Hua Xiaogu shrugged and looked helpless as he looked at the people in the Liuli Courtyard sweating profusely and wiping the tables and chairs very carefully.
"Maybe there isn't enough ice underneath. How about moving a few more basins of ice and placing them in the four corners here?" Hua Xiaogu muttered, turned to the magpie and said, "I'll find someone to move here again."
Here are some basins of ice, please help me find the guy responsible for carrying the ice."
After that, the two of them separated and went to look for each other. After leaving Liuli Court, Hua Xiaogu walked to the side along the path she walked last night. Her feet slipped slightly and she almost stumbled.
Hua Xiaogu looked down and saw a lot of light yellow powder falling lightly on the cobblestone road.
"Come here!" Hua Xiaogu shouted loudly, and then a servant rushed over quickly, standing by and asking: "What are your orders, miss?"
Hua Xiaogu pointed to the ashes on the ground and said: "Sweep the ashes on the road carefully to prevent guests from slipping when they come. I almost slipped just now."
The servant looked down and squinted, then nodded immediately and simply turned to look for the broom.
Hua Xiaogu looked back, shook his head and said: "You can't sweep such fine powder with a broom. It might be better to sprinkle more water on the broom and sweep it into mud." After that,
Hua Xiaogu squatted down, stretched out his hand and wiped the pebbles.
The dust on the ground stuck to her fingertips. Hua Xiaogu rubbed it, and then shook her head. She really didn't know what these were, they were quite thin, and it was really difficult to take care of them.
