Be a matchmaker in an otome game

Chapter 232 Hidden danger
Under the struggle of the maids, the man gave them part of the good ingredients reluctantly. The maids burst into cheers, holding the spoils they got from "battle", and walked towards the warehouse in a mighty way .

The warehouse was not as bad as it looked when they first arrived. Under the leadership of Karona, the maids cleaned up the ashes in the warehouse and blocked all the holes that might enter the mouse. The house, but at least it looks much tidier.

"How to solve the problem of sleeping at night?" Felisa asked. Although the environment looks better, the problem of sleeping is still not solved. Even if people sleep on the ground, they must have a quilt.

"It's been resolved." Karona smiled, but Felisa didn't ignore the gloomy look in her eyes.

In fact, Felisa shouldn't ask, but she couldn't hold back after all, she frowned: "How did you solve it? Do you have any money left?"

Even if you know magic, it is impossible to conjure up so many beds all of a sudden. It must have been some kind of deal with the villagers. According to the village chief's money-grabbing virtue, I am afraid that he has opened his mouth to these maid lions.

Karona's expression froze slightly, and she quickly returned to normal: "There is no way to do this. If you want to survive, you must pay a corresponding price. Just money is the slightest price."

Felisa frowned and went to the village chief.

"Isn't it a little too much?" Felisa asked the village head who was squatting by the river smoking a cigarette, "Can't you leave some money for them for emergencies?"

Money is useful no matter where it goes. There was a saying in the previous life that money is not everything, but without money is absolutely impossible, but the purpose of the village chief is obviously to force these maids to have nothing to pay.

The village chief slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and looked at Felisa as if he were looking at an innocent child.

"Do you really think they are pitiful?" The village head Youyou asked back.

Otherwise... Isn't it pitiful enough for them to suffer so much torture and suffering?
Felisa didn't answer the village chief's question, but the expression on her face already showed her inner thoughts.

The village head smiled, not knowing what he was laughing at.

"You are really, innocent and cute."

Felisa knew that this was not a compliment, so she frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Have you ever thought about what would happen if they used magic on the villagers when they were fighting for ingredients?" the village chief asked.

Felisa was stunned. She really hadn't thought about this question, but when the village chief mentioned it, she thought about this topic for a while and broke out in a cold sweat.

Under the circumstances at that time, if someone secretly used magic to attack the middle-aged male villager, it would be impossible for the villager to avoid it.

Felisa said with a sigh of relief: "But...but they won't do this..."

When it came to the latter, she herself was a bit lacking in confidence, because she didn't have a full guarantee that the group of maids would not do anything.

She thinks that the maids are weak because they are in the environment of the city lord's mansion. Kress left a few people in the city lord's mansion, and if the maids act rashly, they will punish their relatives in the barracks. In addition, resisting them would result in more cruel insults, the maids had no choice but to accept their fate, but no matter how pitiful they were, they all held sharp weapons capable of killing people.

But here, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. It is impossible for Kress to know what the maids have done, and even if Kress knows, she may not be willing to punish the maids for such a trivial matter.

"Have you figured it out?" said the village chief, "Confiscating their belongings is just a means. There is no money enough to restrict some of their actions. Of course, the premise is that they have no bad intentions."

For some reason, Felisa heard the heart-pounding chill from the village chief's last words.

But this feeling was only for a moment, and then the village chief laughed again, as if he was just an ordinary country old man: "Go back quickly, you haven't eaten dinner yet."

That's right, she hasn't eaten her dinner yet. Felisa, who was frightened by the village chief, turned around subconsciously. After walking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and asked, "Who the hell are you?"

The village chief just laughed and didn't answer.

Felisa knew she wouldn't have an answer.

When she returned to the warehouse, she saw that the maids used bricks and wooden boards to pad the bed boards, then spread straw on the bed boards, and then spread sheets and quilts on the straw.

In the previous years, they may have never slept in such a simple bed, they were all soft beds with high pillows, but they quickly accepted such a simple condition.

"Let's have something to eat first." Carona handed Felisa a bowl of soup, with a few pieces of meat and vegetables in it.

The soup was not good, it was a bit salty, and the meat was not cooked through, so it was hard to chew. Felisa chewed and swallowed the meat with great difficulty.

"What are your plans for the future?" Felisa asked Carona to a secluded place and asked softly.

Karona didn't hesitate much, and seemed to be very familiar with their current situation, she said: "Calm down first, after all, we also need a place to take a breather temporarily."

What she said was temporarily, and Felisa's eyebrows sank: "Are you planning to leave here?"

"Let's talk about it later," Karona said perfunctorily, "Always plan for the future."

It is true to say so, but I don't know if it is because of the village chief's words, Felisa felt uneasy for no reason.

"After arriving here, everyone seems to be in a good mood." Felisa shook off the anxiety and focused on the purpose of her visit this time.

Because there are fewer monitors of abandoned avenues who are lingering and may appear at any time, and the countryside has a wide view, such a vast environment has a certain sense of security for these maids, and they can easily detect whether there is something wrong. The acquaintances approached, unlike when they were in the City Lord's Mansion, someone would drag them into the shadows without knowing when.

Moreover, they are in a busy state for most of the day. The village chief squeezed their labor as much as possible and assigned them a lot of farm work. They have no time to let themselves think wildly and fall into negative emotions.

Carona also seemed a lot more relaxed, and her happy emotions would also be contagious. The worries between her brows these days have dissipated a lot.

"It's still far away." Karona counted the things to do tomorrow, "The wheat field has not been harvested, and the meat will not be provided tomorrow. We need to arrange people to go hunting in the mountains, and there is a piece of land in the east that needs to be turned over again. soil, and all the fields must be watered."

Karona adapted very quickly. After only half a day, she quickly entered the state and knew what she should do. Felicia felt that it was because Karona had always flattered other nobles in exchange for resources in the past. She was very good at Judge the situation.
