They were not bored. They had been busy working and dared not slack off under Qian Jiyun and Yan Nuo’s watch.
“We’re not bored! We’re not bored.”
“You’re not bored?” An Jiuyue smiled and looked at them meaningfully.
“You must be bored if you have time to gossip about me. I think you’re not busy enough, right?”
“Uh…” An Gouzi took a step back instinctively.!!
I’m the one who gossiped about An Jiuyue. Did she hear me? But how can she overhear it if she was in the treehouse? Is she that capable?
“Jiuyue, you misunderstand us. We didn’t gossip about you. Not at all,” he denied it guiltily.
He did not want to be beaten up again since he had already experienced it twice.
An Jiuyue sneered and did not say anything.
Qian Jiyun flew down from the straw shed and shouted at Yan Nuo, “Yan Nuo!”
Yan Nuo turned around and immediately arranged a lot of work for the men. They had to work until nighttime if they wanted to leave.
Some looked tearful, but they dared not express it in front of Yan Nuo. It was simply… too much! If they had known, they would have kept their mouths shut! Why did they have to be such blabbermouths?
…
The construction of the straw shed was completed quickly.
There was no need for Qian Jiyun, Qian Yiyun, and Yan Nuo to work anymore. They could leave the chopping of firewood to An Gouzi and the others.
The men were dog-tired. An Gouzi was so tired he could not even stand straight after working hard for a few days. He wanted to rest for a day but did not dare to because he was afraid he would be beaten up.
They were wondering how much firewood they had to chop and how many days it would take to fill the straw shed when they suddenly realized it might take more than a month.
When they returned home that night, their families asked if they had to go up the mountain again tomorrow.
They wanted to reply that they did not need to.
However, given that the straw shed barely contained any firewood, nobody dared to say that. They could only continue climbing up the mountain to chop firewood the next day and slowly fill up the straw shed.
They were here under the Chief and the Junior Officer’s threat previously.
However, now that they had seen Qian Jiyun’s capability, they did not dare to play truant even if the Chief and the Junior Officer said nothing.
In the treehouse, Qian Jiyun held a piece of paper, deep in thought.
“Not enough medicine?”
An Jiuyue brought two dishes from the kitchen. She glanced at the letter in Qian Jiyun’s hand and understood what had happened.
“They actually wrote to you to ask you to settle something like this? Does the military have to care about these things now?”
Qian Jiyun squeezed the paper and remained silent.
Of course, he would not care about things happening in other places. However, this issue did not concern the commoners. Instead…
“Mistress, there’s an epidemic disease outbreak in the military camp,” Yan Nuo whispered to An Jiuyue.
Yan Nuo felt he could tell An Jiuyue everything—including military camp matters—since his master fancied her.
“What?!” An Jiuyue was shocked and turned to look at Qian Jiyun.
“Didn’t you say there are strict defense measures so there won’t be any loopholes in the military camp?”
Qian Jiyun pursed his lips and did not say anything. They had strict defense measures, but there would always be people who wanted to commit unfavorable acts. There were no loopholes, but it did not stop them from creating some.
