Chapter 84: Pretend This Subordinate Still Has a Fee to Pay

In contrast to Madam née Li’s running around, Qiao Mu was cheerfully ordering people to carry the items inside, arranging each box by category and piling them up in an orderly manner.

“You are done now.” Qiao Mu’s bright eyes swept over the hundreds of boxes before turning toward Ao Ye, waving her hand at him like she was flicking away a fly. “Go back.”

“Little Lord, this subordinate already reported to you that from today onward, this subordinate will follow Little Lord closely.”

Qiao Mu pettishly rolled her eyes when she heard this, wildly gesturing with her hand. “Why do you need you to follow me so closely? Not only a waste of food but also have to find a room for you to live in. As you can see, my tiny home can’t accommodate you!”

How bothersome! Moreover, having someone next to her at all times also required her to waste her breath talking. Look at the present situation! Originally, after making these people leave, she could have taken inventory of these goods by herself, but with them present, how could she take the Heart of Paradise out to open the mystic realm?

So infuriating… She did not want to talk at all! The child sharply glanced at Ao Ye before gesturing toward the door with her chin. In other words, hurry and leave!

Ao Ye’s lips twitched. He swiftly dug out a money pouch embroidered with gold threads out of his chest fold and offered it with both hands. “This is this subordinate’s room and board fee for the next three years. Don’t worry, Little Lord, this subordinate doesn’t need a room for lodging and can live anywhere from a tree to the underside of the eaves and even from the corridor to the courtyards! And a bowl of rice is enough to feed me!”

Qiao Mu openly confiscated the money pouch that was surrendered by Ao Ye and pulled it open. There were a lot of small gold ingots and small round and shiny gold beans, as well as a lot of colorful jewels. It would add up to at least 10,000 taels of silver, which is sufficient for 30 years of expenditure, let alone 3 years.

Qiao Mu glanced at Ao Ye and sized him up before nodding and waving her hand again.

Ao Ye immediately cupped his hands in understanding. “Don’t worry, Little Lord, this subordinate will be nearby. If Little Lord needs anything, simply call this subordinate.”

After saying that, he leaped onto the eaves of the house and disappeared from sight.

As Qiao Hu stood in the entrance of the courtyard with his path blocked by the boxes, his jaw nearly popped off from how shocked he was. His elder younger sister was too amazing, wasn’t she! Demanding payment for room and board when she takes in a subordinate, this was simply too… excessive!

At this time, the little girl who had stayed next to Qiao Mu without speaking also ran forward and imitated Ao Ye’s action as she dug out a bag of gold ingots and gold beans from her chest fold. She offered it to Qiao Mu with both hands. “Dear Little Lord, this maid is called Shaoyao 1 . This servant is adept at clothes washing, cooking, hair brushing, and makeup. This servant can sleep in the corridor or the courtyards or the woodshed or even a pile of grass, and a bowl of rice is also enough for me!”

Qiao Mu’s lips twitched. She opened the money pouch and extracted two gold ingots to hand to the girl. “Go buy some vegetables.”

The rich Crown Prince truly went through quite the trouble. He even prepared the room and board fee for the two of them, temporarily rendering Qiao Mu speechless.

When her subordinates were so considerate, how could she ignore it as their mistress! She could not find it in her to kick them out! With her hands behind her back, Qiao Mu ambled to stand in front of the boxes. Then, she turned back and called out to the empty courtyard, “Ao Ye, do you know how to drive a carriage?”

“Yes, Little Lord!” Ao Ye had tears streaming down his face… Little Lord was planning to make him be a carriage driver for the rest of his life, wasn’t she!

“Brother Xiao Hu, help me stand guard outside the door and don’t let anyone enter. I will store these all into my inner world.” Qiaoqiao waved her hand toward Qiao Hu, who was standing at the entrance and unable to enter. Qiao Hu immediately responded in agreement and turned around to stand outside the residence, thoughtfully closing the door behind him.
