Chapter 174: The Empress Dowager Makes Things Difficult

The next day, Ye Jiayao woke up with her whole body aching. 

Xia Chunyu gently patted her cheek and said, "Your performance yesterday wasn't that bad. Keep up the good work."

She threw a pillow at his head. 

He just laughed at her and walked out. 

Ye Jiayao was frustrated. Why was she always the one feeling battered and sore when he's the one doing all the work?

Qiao Xi came to the room and told her, "Housekeeper Zhong has brought the mason."

Ye Jiayao quickly got up and got dressed.

The three of them took a tour around the courtyard while the mason listened to Ye Jiayao's requests. Since the 'small kitchen' that they were planning to build wasn't small in dimensions at all, it was recommended for it to be built in the penthouse opposite the main room.

Ye Jiayao addressed the mason, "Please start work as soon as possible. If you do a good job, there will be rewards."
