Hearing this, the little maid pouted, looking unhappy: “Madam, saying this will really hurt Shui’er’s feelings!”
“Huh?”
I was stunned and asked in confusion: “Why would you be hurt?”
The little maid looked aggrieved: “Why can Zi’er and Drunk’er do things, but not Shui’er? Does madam not trust Shui’er, or not like Shui’er?”
I put on a smile to comfort her: “No, no! I just think they’re more suitable for this task. I didn’t mean anything else, don’t overthink it!”
The little maid’s eyes turned red, almost crying: “No, madam definitely thinks Shui’er is too stupid and doesn’t want to entrust her with anything. Since madam doesn’t trust Shui’er, Shui’er will go find the housekeeper and be assigned other tasks…”
She was about to leave…
Sweating, I could only sigh and quickly call her back: “Okay, okay, I’ll let you go, alright?”
“Really?”
The girl immediately turned around, her face lighting up with joy and eagerness: “Madam, quickly tell me what it is! Shui’er promises to handle it perfectly!”
I couldn’t help but click my tongue, then instructed: “Actually, it’s nothing special. Go and keep an eye on the Prince’s movements. If he’s going to the palace or leaving the residence, make sure to tell me immediately!”
The little girl first blinked in confusion, then said mysteriously with a smile: “I know, madam must be afraid that the Crown Prince will go find other women, right?”
Although I wanted to know if Qi Chenxuan had met other women, it was completely different from what she thought.
I couldn’t help but roll my eyes and scolded her: “You ask too many questions. Just go when I tell you to, what’s with all this nonsense?”
“Got it!”
The little girl pouted reluctantly and then moved towards the door…
“Wait a moment!”
I remembered something and called her back, instructing her with concern: “Remember to be clever when you go, act carefully, and don’t let the Crown Prince discover you!”
The little girl immediately patted her chest confidently and guaranteed: “Don’t worry, madam! I know what to do!”
But what else could I do?
I couldn’t possibly follow her myself, could I?
