CHAPTER 65: CHAPTER 065: SERVE ME FOR 5 DAYS
The Princess Consort Luling said to the Princely Heir, "Eldest, quickly go and see your sister!"
The Princely Heir dropped the bamboo he was carrying and strode over.
Li Yuzhu went to see as well.
"What’s the matter?" The Princely Heir asked with concern.
"Got a splinter, it hurts." The Great Princess lifted her hand to show him, tears brimming.
Li Yuzhu was speechless, just a splinter.
The Princely Heir held her hand, "Don’t cry, I’ll find a way to help you remove it."
But he worked for a long time and still didn’t manage to remove it.
"Move aside, let me try." Li Yuzhu said.
The Great Princess snorted coldly, "You think you can? Don’t squeeze my hand too hard."
Li Yuzhu’s eyes gleamed, "If I remove this splinter, you have to listen to me for five days, do whatever I say."
The Great Princess shouted angrily, "Li Yuzhu, you’re being too much!"
Li Yuzhu raised her eyebrow slightly, "I remember last year before New Year, I asked you for a favor, and you also made me listen to you for five days, even made me secretly get something for you..."
Back then, the confused original main character listened to the Great Princess, secretly went to the Little Emperor, and pinched something out for her.
It was a stone ink slab.
"You..." The Great Princess gritted her teeth angrily, "You promised to keep it a secret!"
Damn Li Yuzhu, how could she still remember this?
If this comes out, she’ll be in trouble!
"Yes, I promised to keep it a secret, that’s in the past, let’s talk about now, I’ll help you remove the splinter, you listen to me for five days, how about it?" Li Yuzhu said, smiling.
"What are you talking about?" The Princely Heir was bewildered.
The Great Princess didn’t dare to tell the truth.
Li Yuzhu smiled and said, "Nothing, bro, just girl talk."
The Princely Heir just "oh" and didn’t ask further, then said, "This splinter needs to be removed quickly, or it’ll get inflamed and hurt more."
The Great Princess feared pain the most and quickly urged Li Yuzhu, "Li Yuzhu, don’t you have a way to remove the splinter? Hurry up then!"
Li Yuzhu continued smiling, "It’s agreed, remove the splinter and listen to me for five days, brother as witness."
The Great Princess glared at her, "Five days, then five days."
"Alright." Li Yuzhu nodded with a smile, she extracted a small tweezer from her space, clamped the Great Princess’s hand, and removed it in one go, "Done."
The Great Princess looked at her fingertip, the splinter was indeed gone, and it didn’t hurt anymore.
She turned her head reluctantly, planning to walk away.
But Li Yuzhu grabbed her, "Promise kept!"
"You—" The Great Princess was angry, but had no choice.
Li Yuzhu took out two pieces of cloth from her sleeve and handed them to her, "Wrap your hand with these old cloths and you won’t get stabbed by bamboo again."
The Great Princess’s eyes lit up, this was a good idea, why hadn’t she thought of it before?
It caused her to be Li Yuzhu’s maid for five days.
With Li Yuzhu around, the Great Princess couldn’t slack off, the sisters worked together to move the split bamboo pieces to the foundation pit.
The Second Young Master and the Third Young Master formed a group, the Princely Heir took the Second Princess, Li Yuzhu and the Great Princess formed another group.
With helpers, they worked much more efficiently.
Liu the bricklayer laughed, "At this speed, it’ll be done in five days."
Upon hearing this, everyone worked even harder.
While they were busy, Xue Family shouted, "Where’s Jingjing? Jingjing?"
Everyone turned to look, Li Jing was indeed missing.
The Princess Consort Luling ran over from the foundation pit, yelling at the Xue Family from afar, "Can’t you even keep watch on a child?"
