Amidst their lighthearted conversation, something had inadvertently slipped out.
After a moment, Gu Qingli's expression relaxed, and she smiled. "Well, that's fine. You may all leave now. I'll call you if I need anything."
"Yes, Miss," the four of them replied respectfully, bowing.
After they left, Gu Qingli began to plan what to do next.
Xiao Yunjing returned half an hour later, followed by six young men in green robes. Judging by their gait, Gu Qingli guessed they were skilled martial artists and likely members of the Secret Sect.
"Madam!" the six of them greeted in unison, bowing.
As expected!
"Mm," Gu Qingli acknowledged with a nod.
Xiao Yunjing placed the items he had bought on the ground. "I brought them back to help with the work. What do you think?" he explained to Gu Qingli.
"Can they do it?"
She doubted these assassins could weed and till the land without turning it into a battlefield.
