Chapter 22 The Water Tank
Hearing Yi Shuihan's words of "seeing a good show", Su Jiu felt that his nose was going to be crooked.

Adhering to the principle that people have to bow their heads under the eaves, Su Jiu had no choice but to take a deep breath, "It's easy to say! Easy to say!"

It was agreed to work for three days in Half Life Dream, and one day missing would not count. Fortunately, although Yi Shuihan didn't provide her with dinner, the room he found for her was not bad.

Not to mention the luxury of the Princess Mansion, but it is not bad.

Su Jiu fell on the soft bed, his whole body seemed to be falling apart, and he didn't even have the strength to lift it up.

Unknowingly fell asleep, without noticing at all, after an hour, someone pushed open the door.

Su Jiu's room keeps a small dark candle all year round, the figures under the light are vague, and behind the ghost face, Yi Shuihan's eyes are soft and indelible.

Fingers covered the sleeping Su Jiu's nostrils, "Oh, what little girl thinks of you, sleeps like a little pig, and even snores!"

Su Jiu felt something on the wing of his nose, and frowned slightly. He stretched out his hand and slapped it. He still muttered, "The half-dreamed mosquito is so annoying! It's as annoying as their landlord!"

Yi Shuihan smiled helplessly, and resignedly touched the back of Su Jiu's neck, making her sleep even deeper.

Then cover the acupuncture points that are prone to soreness during work with both hands, and press slowly.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Yi Shuihan's back was covered with a fine layer of sweat, and then he stopped.

Looking at Su Jiu who had fallen into a deep sleep, Yi Shuihan's eyes were full of deep affection.

the next morning

Su Jiu woke up from her sleep. She thought that after yesterday's whole day of chopping firewood, she must have a backache today, but she stretched her arms and legs, not to mention the pain, she didn't feel any pain at all. No.

"I'm going! Is my physical strength so good! I've recovered after a night of sleep?" Su Jiu had an unbelievable expression on his face, and he was still jumping and jumping on the ground after putting on his shoes, feeling very satisfied.

It was still the two black-clothed brothers from yesterday who brought her breakfast. Su Jiu's eyes lit up when he saw the big steamed stuffed buns. Now she is so hungry that she could swallow a cow.

The buns were very fresh, and they were filled with pork. Su Jiu stuffed his cheeks to the brim, and he didn't forget to take a sip of porridge, "How do you know that this hall's favorite is pork and green onion buns."

"Princess Nine's meals are prepared by the landlord." The two brothers in black still gave a serious answer.

But Su Jiu, who was eating, paused: Yi Shuihan prepared it?How did Yi Shuihan know what she likes to eat the most?And why did he specifically order what to prepare for her breakfast?
In an instant, Su Jiu's head was spinning rapidly. She always felt that she had seen Yi Shuihan's speech and behavior somewhere, and he was someone she was very familiar with. Otherwise, she wouldn't be so clear about her preferences, but who is this person? ?

Su Jiu thought about it but didn't understand it.It seems that I have to find a chance to test it out.

After drinking and eating, Su Jiu patted her round belly, feeling satisfied for a while.

But before she could pay attention, the two men in black held her arms, one on the left and the other on the right, and carried her to the firewood room like a chicken.

Yesterday, the firewood on that wall was gone, replaced by [-] large water tanks one person deep.

The two brothers in black pointed to the water buckets on the ground, "The host said, today's task is to fill up these thirty water tanks!"

Su Jiu looked at those water tanks, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he almost fainted, "What? Say it again!"

"Today's task is to fill up these water tanks!" The man in black said generously, "The landlord only drinks the spring water on the mountain. Please trouble Princess Ninth for a few more trips. Of course, our two brothers will also supervise the whole process today."

Su wine "..."

Su Jiu just wants to ask now, is it still useful if she passes out!
Seeing Su Jiu's expression of wanting to cry, the two brothers in black did not forget to remind "Ninth Princess, the task is arduous. If you can't finish it, today's dinner will be gone!"

Su Jiu resigned himself to carrying the pole, and hung two buckets on both sides of the pole, his clumsy appearance was as ridiculous as it could be.

Fortunately, the two men in black had long been used to the strangeness, and they liked to obey orders. They didn't mean to mock Su Jiu. If it wasn't for a crack in the ground, Su Jiu would have easily slipped in.

It was the first time to fetch water from the mountains, and the two brothers in black led the way. Su Jiu stumbled along. When she returned to the woodshed, she poured the water from the two wooden barrels into the water tank, only to realize that it was just halfway there.

An hour and a half, a little half of water?

Su Jiu looked at the remaining 29 water tanks, wanting to cry but no tears, can she still have dinner tonight!If she had known this earlier, she would have stuffed two steamed buns in the morning.

Next, Su Jiu focused on speeding up, and involuntarily used lightness kung fu.

The pole on her shoulders allows her to maintain her balance while increasing her speed.

Su Jiu's focus now is on how to fill up the thirty water tanks quickly and well.

As the sun changed, Su Jiu couldn't remember how many times he went up the mountain and how many buckets of water he picked up. He just vaguely felt that his speed was getting faster and faster, and there were fewer and fewer tasks left.

From an angle that Su Jiu didn't see, the two brothers in black looked at each other, and they both saw a look of satisfaction in each other's eyes.

"Oh my god! The water is finally full!" Su Jiu poured the last bucket of water into the water tank, and he sat down on the ground without any image at all.

Although Su Jiu's body was extremely tired, he felt a sense of pride spontaneously when he looked at the water tanks in the room that were full.

In any case, she picked these thirty tanks of water herself, and she completed the task that she couldn't. She just thinks she is great!

It was also a coincidence that Yi Shuihan came, just as Su Jiu was about to lie down on the ground and relax, Yi Shuihan came to the firewood room with graceful steps.

Su Jiu's nose twitched, "The roasted chicken is the roasted chicken made by Chef Bai Cuilou!"

Su Jiu felt his mouth start to secrete saliva, looking at Yi Shuihan who was walking towards her holding a food box, stars began to appear in his eyes.

"Isn't the Ninth Princess born into a noble family? Why are you so disregarding her image!" Yi Shuihan put the food box on the table, looking at Su Jiu who hadn't gotten up from the ground yet.

Su Jiu got up, patted his dusty clothes, and washed his hands in the basin. And survival instincts probably don't count."

If Yi Shuihan waved the roast chicken from Bai Cuilou in front of her and took it away, he would be too inhuman. Su Jiu took it for granted that this must be her dinner today.

Su Jiu unceremoniously opened the food box, broke off a chicken leg and gnawed on it.

The moment Su Jiu ate the chicken legs of Bai Cui Lou, he instantly felt that she was the happiest person in the world.
