The next day, all the maids and ladies in Shen Xingwan's courtyard were sent out. Zhou Sheng made a special trip and selected a group of innocent people to come in.
The small kitchen was built with great fanfare. The other ladies of the Shen family have not yet built a small kitchen in the yard alone. Although Shen Xingwan won this right, the money cannot be taken out of the public account.
The eldest lady means that this is her personal behavior and she is responsible for it.
Shen Xingwan waved his hand to indicate that there was no shortage of money and asked the craftsmen to work quickly.
Satisfied, Shen Xingwan patrolled the yard with Pinellia holly. All the flowers had been dug up and a lot of medicinal herbs had been planted according to Chanyi's instructions.
Fu Jingchao, who was watering medicine and watering at the side, saw her coming, put down the water bottle in his hand, took a few steps forward and saluted her, "Hello, lady."
With a yellow and black face, he used his eyes crazily to hint to her that he had something to say to her.
Shen Xingwan also happened to come to him for something, "That platycodon, right? Come and tell me about your past experiences in the mountains to relieve your boredom."
Fu Jingchao breathed a sigh of relief, his old waist was finally relieved. Shen Xingwan was busy with manuscripts these two days and had no time to pay attention to him.
By accident, he was caught doing hard work by his mother who was in charge. He was pulling flowers and digging the ground to plant medicine. He was so tired that he could hardly stand upright.
In order not to reveal my identity, I can only endure it.
Fu Jingchao followed Shen Xingwan into the study, and Qinghong took the initiative to take people outside to guard him from a distance.
Fu Jingchao sat down on the chair unceremoniously, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it.
Shen Xingwan leaned on the desk and supported his chin with his hand, watching him blink his eyes innocently a few times, "You look very tired."
Fu Jingchao lazily leaned on the chair, "You upgraded me to your personal maid, cough cough cough, my body can't bear it."
Fu Jingchao covered his chest and tried to pretend to be weak, but it was a pity that the beauty was sick and pitiful. With his face like this, it would only make people look irritated.
"Stop pretending. I see that you are haunted every day, especially at night. You are very happy, and you don't know what bad things you are doing outside." Shen Xingwan exposed it ruthlessly.
Fortunately, he lived with Banxia, who silently protected him every time.
"Anyway, I don't want to be ordered around anymore." Fu Jingchao lied. He had been targeted by the housekeeper for no reason these days, and he had become a lazy girl who was always lazy and did not work well.
Shen Xingwan shook her finger at him, "No, your current position is the safest. Who would pay attention to an inconspicuous maid?"
Fu Jingchao's already darkened face turned even darker in an instant.
Shen Xingwan rolled his eyes, showed a sly smile, and said in a bewitching voice, "It's not non-negotiable."
Fu Jingchao looked at her with disbelief, "What bad idea are you planning?"
Although he went out to do things at night and slept lazily during the day these days, it was an eye-opener for Shen Xingwan to work hard.
He has never seen a little girl who can jump and do things better than her.
Shen Xingwan jumped up to him in a few steps, put his hand on the chair domineeringly, and smiled sweetly at him, "Did I save you, help you enter the house, and help you hide your identity all the time?"
Fu Jingchao inexplicably felt that her smile was murderous, so he pulled the lapel of his clothes and nodded obediently.
Just admit it, Shen Xingwan smiled more and more gently, and said with crooked eyebrows, "Now is the time for you to repay me."
Shen Xingwan's eyes glanced at his waist. If he remembered correctly, there was a top-quality soft sword hidden there.
Under her warm gaze, Fu Jingchao leaned back uncomfortably, "Then you don't want me to commit myself to you, do you?"
Shen Xingwan slapped his hand, "You have a beautiful idea."
"Ahem, what do you want to do?" Fu Jingchao was a little confused.
"You are good at kung fu, right? And the person who accompanies you to do things every day shouldn't be bad either."
After all, her yard is so closely watched, and this guy comes and goes freely every night and has never been caught.
Fu Jingchao glanced at Dongqing, who was standing in the corner without saying a word and having no presence, and chuckled, "Don't try to trick me, your maid is not bad at all, she looks like she walked out of a dead man's house."
Dongqing's eyes instantly flashed with murderous intent, and she quickly lowered her head as if nothing had happened.
Shen Xingwan sighed and looked at him pitifully, "You also know that I am a virgin now. I might be killed one day. One person is not enough."
"You want to borrow someone from me?" Fu Jingchao looked at her helplessly, and her thoughts were always unexpected.
Shen Xingwan smiled slightly. What he borrowed was useless to him.
"There should be some kind of secret guard around you. Lend me your secret leader."
Although she comes from modern times, she is not doing this in modern times.
Over the years in Jiangling, there have been a group of subordinates who have been trained by paying money to others.
Unfortunately, it's probably because they don't have the aura of a heroine, and they haven't met any hidden masters or bosses at all, so the level of that group of people is no problem compared to ordinary people.
It would definitely not be enough to face the killer secret guards. As for Dongqing, it was a surprise to her. The group of people she brought out were Shen Xingwan's last trump card. They must not be exposed easily. They were not in Yangzhou at all.
Fu Jingchao's eyes darkened, and he didn't refute or speak for a while.
"Hey, do you really want to watch your savior die miserably? You are heartless. If I had known, I wouldn't have saved you..." Shen Xingwan pretended to cry while sobbing.
Fu Jingchao raised his forehead and said, "Stop pretending, I'm afraid, can you do it?"
"Then will you help or not?"
Fu Jingchao suspected that if he dared to say that he would not help, Shen Xingwan would definitely start wailing in the next second, and he would not know how to torment him in the future.
In order to keep my ears clean, I also didn’t want to see her die tragically...
Fu Jingchao nodded sadly, "I've fallen into your hands. I've never seen you so good at taking advantage of others."
The expression on Shen Xingwan's face instantly brightened, "There is no need to use ready-made resources in vain. Who told me that my father does not love my mother and I can only rely on myself."
Fu Jingchao thought for a moment and said, "It's impossible to lend people to you. You can pick out a few people and throw them to me, and I'll throw them to you for training."
As a once-prominent existence, the Zhennan Palace naturally had its own complete training system, and the secret guards under its name were even called famous.
Although I look lonely now, my foundation is still there.
Shen Xingwan nodded with satisfaction and immediately reciprocated, "From today on, you will be promoted from a rough maid to a second-class maid, specializing in taking care of fat cats. It will be easy enough for you to be lazy."
Fu Jingchao raised his eyebrows and said cooperatively, "Thank you, lady, for your kindness."
It is indeed a good job that is unobtrusive, easy and free.
Fu Jingchao went back to his room to catch up on his sleep with satisfaction. Dongqing said, "Can he be trusted? Otherwise, I will let my people enter Jiangnan."
Shen Xingwan shook his head, "It's not the right time. It doesn't matter whether he is trustworthy or not. We are just using each other."
She looks at the scenery now, but in fact it is in crisis every step of the way, and she doesn't have much choice.
