"Servant Qin An greets Lin Changzai and the Second Prince."
"No need for formalities, Eunuch Qin. What brings you here?"
Qin An smiled at Lin Wanyi and then looked at the Second Prince sitting beside her, his eyes deepening.
"His Majesty ordered me to see what needs to be added to the backyard. Since the Second Prince will be staying at Huifang Courtyard, it can't be done carelessly."
Lin Wanyi nodded.
"Indeed. Yesterday, His Majesty and the Second Prince arrived in a hurry, and the backyard wasn't properly tidied up. Today, we should arrange it carefully to make it comfortable for the Second Prince and Du Momo."
Du Momo?
Qin An frowned. Wasn't Chai Momo the one taking care of the Second Prince? Has she been replaced?
Just then, Du Momo returned from the backyard and bumped into Eunuch Qin.
Eunuch Qin was surprised to see her.
"What are you doing here?"
"Don't speak nonsense. In front of Lin Changzai and the Second Prince, how can a mere servant like me be addressed as 'you'?"
"Oh, I misspoke. Please forgive me, Lin Changzai and Second Prince."
Lin Wanyi smiled, realizing that Du Momo was indeed a stickler for rules.
She wouldn't let any small mistake slip by.
On the positive side, the Second Prince would surely learn proper etiquette in the future.
There would be no more instances of unruly servants bullying their masters.
However, it also meant that the Second Prince wouldn't be able to slack off.
With such a strict nanny by his side, he would have many days of sitting upright.
Thinking this, Lin Wanyi still showed respect towards Du Momo.
"Nanny, what do you think? What needs to be added?"
"Lin Changzai, the backyard is small, and the Second Prince will only stay here for a few months. Everything should be kept simple. I think we just need to add the necessary daily items."
Then Du Momo turned to the Second Prince, her tone becoming gentler.
"What does the Second Prince think? If there's anything else you want to add, just let me know."
The Second Prince, with a stern little face, had only known this Du Momo for less than half an hour.
Who knew what kind of person she was?
When Lan Fei sent Chai Momo, she was praised to the skies too.
So, he wouldn't say much easily.
He simply replied, "Momo can decide."
This response was as good as saying nothing. Du Momo gave the Second Prince a deep look.
Then she nodded.
She said to Lin Wanyi, "In that case, I'll take Eunuch Qin to have a look and make a list. We'll get the items ready soon so the Second Prince can take a nap."
"Momo is right. Go ahead."
"Yes, your servant takes leave."
"Your servant also takes leave."
After everyone had left, the Second Prince, who had been sitting upright on the bench, finally relaxed.
His eyes appeared calm and unruffled, but they were actually filled with confusion.
