Forced love, an inescapable fate

Chapter 38 Little Secret

The next morning, Mu Qingli took Wanyue to the newly rented shop and started working.

The entire shop is divided into a front hall and a back hall, and the area is quite large. Mu Qingli already had an idea in her mind about what business to do with this shop. At first, she thought of opening a flower shop, but after getting a general understanding of the town, she quickly rejected this idea.

When she and Jiang Ci went out yesterday morning, she found that although the town was not big, there were quite a few people. Later, when chatting with passers-by, she learned that this place was very close to the border between Qi and Jing, so this town also gathered many merchants coming and going. As more and more people came to exchange goods, gradually more and more people lived in the town, so the area of ​​the entire town looked small, but in fact there were quite a few people living there.

She also discovered a problem. The climate here was very humid and hot, much hotter than when they were in the Qi Palace before. She felt sticky after just going out for a while. In addition, the clothes worn by the people here were thick and complicated, unlike modern times where people could just wear shorts and a vest to go out. So she planned to make and sell modern milk tea and fruit tea here.

Mu Qingli took Wanyue to clean the shop. After a while, their clothes were soaked with sweat.

The air was humid and hot, and Mu Qingli really wanted to have a sip of ice-cold drink at this time. This made her more determined to replicate milk tea and cold drinks.

Wanyue was better off. After all, she had some experience in martial arts and had a solid foundation. Besides, it was just some cleaning work, which was not difficult for her.

On the other hand, Mu Qingli had collapsed on the stool and didn't want to move.

Her hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her face because it was too hot.

She kept fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, and asked enviously to Wanyue, who was dry and clean.

"Wanyue, why aren't you sweating? Aren't you hot?"

Wanyue was standing on a stool wiping the dust off the windows and answered with a smile.

"Miss, I've been helping my family with work since I was little, and I'm used to it. Besides, these are the simplest things for me, so I don't feel tired doing them. Miss, you can take a rest, and leave the rest to me. Besides, I can't eat and live for free, so if you have anything in the future, just tell me directly."

Mu Qingli felt embarrassed at first, but when she saw Wanyue swiftly finishing the task that had taken her half a day to complete in just a few moves, she had no choice but to help Wanyue. However, the room was almost cleaned up.

Wanyue was quite curious about Mu Qingli. She really wanted to know how this Qingli County Lord, who had lived in the Qi Palace for a long time and was bullied everywhere, made a living with this shop.

Although she is a secret guard, she has a lively personality and is quite talkative. From the first moment she saw Mu Qingli, she inexplicably felt a little fondness for this princess who was described as useless by Bai Yu. In her opinion, Mu Qingli's performance was completely different from what she had imagined, so she was very curious about how the princess would perform next.

She didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.

"I wonder what the girl plans to do with this shop?"

Hearing her words, Mu Qingli smiled mysteriously.

"Well, you'll find out tonight. I guarantee you've never seen anything like it before, and I also guarantee you'll absolutely love it. But we have to go out a while later and need to buy some things."

Her words aroused Wanyue's curiosity even more, but no matter how she asked, Mu Qingli always smiled mysteriously and asked her to wait patiently.

In fact, Mu Qingli was also worried. If she really made this milk tea, how would she explain it to Jiang Ci? You know, her original body had been staying in the Qi Palace for the past few years. How could she explain clearly that she could make these things? Besides, Jiang Ci was not stupid. He could fool him with amnesia before, but this time it would be difficult to fool him, so she had to come up with a reasonable excuse.

She glanced at Wanyue who was still busy, and a plan came to her mind.

But Wanyue needs to cooperate with me on this matter. Can she agree?

Mu Qingli was a little unsure, but thought it would be better to discuss it with Wanyue first.

She came close to Wanyue, smiling in a flattering manner, her eyes narrowed into slits.

"Wanyue, I want to discuss something with you."

"Miss, if you have something to say, just tell me directly," Wanyue stopped what she was doing and looked at her in confusion.

"Regarding the question you just asked me about what I plan to do with this shop, I'm really not sure right now. I still need to conduct experiments tonight, so to be honest, I have no idea whether it will succeed. If by any chance it succeeds, I want you to help me keep it a secret from my brother. Just say that you did all this and I'm just helping you. Is that okay, Wanyue?"

Wan Yue: Hey, Princess Qingli still has a secret that she can't tell the young prince. What should I do? I'm getting more and more curious, and inexplicably a little excited.

Although her gossipy heart was a little excited, she appeared calm on the surface.
