Chapter 480 - 459 First Update
Fu Dong cautiously carried the water; its temperature had been tested and was just right, with hot water on standby to be added as needed. At this shichen, the Commandery Princess should have been awake, but there was no movement at all from the bed. Fu Dong could not help but glance again at the bothersome man lying on the footstool.
He slept like a dead pig. She had deliberately made so much noise, yet he didn’t wake?
Nanny Yun had awakened early in the morning. She had inspected the flowers and plants in the courtyard, scolded the house servants for their lack of care, and then went to check on Xing Yu, who had caught a cold after being imprudent in the cool weather. Nian Xia had replaced her for several nights, and now that she was better, she naturally received a tongue-lashing about behaving like the mistress herself and not rising early.
Nanny Yun hadn’t yet had a chance to check the preparation of the morning meal. Over the past couple of days, the Commandery Princess had been in a good mood and wasn’t too picky. Serving her could be difficult, but the atmosphere in the courtyard was pleasant.
Nanny Yun then saw the young maids still standing outside the room. What shichen was it already? In the future, if they were in the Crown Prince’s Mansion and someone saw them still not up at this time, couldn’t they just wait inside the house?
"Have you no brains? Standing here brightly for everyone to see that the Commandery Princess hasn’t risen yet?" Nanny Yun hurriedly scolded them. It wouldn’t do, just wouldn’t do; without her, nothing in this courtyard would work.
"Each of you like blocks of wood, standing here, can’t you use your brains a little..." Nanny Yun pushed the door open and walked toward the inside. The Commandery Princess too, at this shichen, if she didn’t wake soon, wouldn’t it be...
These lazy girls, Fu Dong and Nian Xia, if they don’t start learning some rules now, they’d become a laughingstock in the future. Even if the Commandery Princess was displeased, she had to say something.
"Fu Dong, Nian Xia, it must be you two maids slacking off... Aiyo..." Nanny Yun immediately spotted the man in black lying there, slipped, and crashed down sprawled on the floor. The maids following behind tried to help her, but were carrying mouthwash, never mind, the Commandery Princess’s nanny was more important. They instinctively tried to help her, spilling what they carried, and one of the maids slipped on it, resulting in a big fall, tumbling a mess of things across the floor.
