Three months later, there will be an election for the new city lord, and he is determined to win!
After Du Fan and Lu Yun got the key, they went to the lakeside cottage. They looked around inside and saw that everything was arranged properly, except for some maids and servants. So Du Fan said to Lu Yun, "The master hasn't arrived yet. How about we go to the slave market first and pick out a few servants?"
"Yes, sure." Lu Yun responded, and went to the slave market with him.
The lakeside cottage has always been closed, and there has been no news of anyone moving in. Now that the door has been opened and someone is tidying up inside, people from all sides have become curious.
Apart from seeing the two men arranging their movements, they did not see anyone else arriving until the evening of the next day, when a carriage slowly approached the gate of the small building in the middle of the lake, and a group of men and women went in. However, no one could see the faces of those people clearly.
"Master, what do you think of the environment here?" Du Fan asked while looking at Feng Jiu with a smile.
Feng Jiu nodded and said with a smile: "It's very quiet and peaceful, it's really nice."
"We went to the slave market yesterday and bought a few servants, as well as a cook for the kitchen. Everything has been arranged." Du Fan said, looking at Feng Jiu and said, "Master, you must be tired from the journey. I will take you to the main courtyard to rest first."
"Um."
Feng Jiu responded and followed Du Fan to the backyard. As she walked, she looked at the environment inside. The courtyard was shaded by green trees and blooming flowers, which was very beautiful. The terraces, pavilions, rockery and lakes were all beautiful everywhere.
Nightfall
"I heard that someone has moved into the small building on the lakeside in South City District?" The Lord of East City asked the housekeeper beside him.
"Yes, we were preparing yesterday, and someone moved in today. But no one knows who it is, and no one can find out."
The housekeeper was also surprised when he said this. Even when the city lord negotiated with the city lord of Nan City to buy the lakeside cottage, he still couldn't buy it. How could it suddenly be sold? Who on earth was so capable? How could he get the lakeside cottage
"Oh? No one knows who lives there?" East City Lord said in surprise, with a thoughtful look on his face, and then said: "The person who can live there must be no ordinary person. I think there will be some movement after a while, and then we will naturally know his origins."
At the same time, other people were also discussing this matter, but after hearing that they could not find out who it was, they ignored it. They all thought that even if they didn't know now, sooner or later there would be news, and by then, everyone who should know would know.
However, what they didn't expect was that after Fengjiu and the others moved in, they rarely went out and acted as low-key as possible. Gradually, everyone forgot that there were such people in the lakeside cottage...
A few months passed by, and Fengjiu's belly became bigger and bigger. Since it was her first child and she was pregnant with twins, she didn't dare to just lie still all the time. Instead, she would do some regular exercises every day and walk around in the lakeside cottage so that she could give birth more easily in the future.
On this day, Leng Hua came to Feng Jiu who was resting in the pavilion and said, "Master, the once-in-five-year City Lord election has started today. Qi Kang has also gone. He plans to take the position of City Lord of East City. Master, do you want to go and take a look?"
