Liu Xiang was crying her heart out, but when she heard Xi Jiu Er's disbelieving voice, she raised her head and said in surprise: "Miss, you, you're awake?"
"Yeah." Xi Jiu Er sat up, the blood and Qi on his face was very abundant, how could she be a dying person like the doctor said? When the sunlight shone onto her jade-like face, Liu Xiang felt that the Miss in front of him had become even more beautiful than before! For a moment, he could not help but stare blankly, and said pitifully: "Miss … You didn't know that the doctor just said you... Speak of you... Liu Xiang had thought that Miss was going to abandon him … "Sob, sob, sob …"
"Silly girl, you must remember that I will never abandon you." Xi Jiu Er said in a solemn voice, "You must remember this."
There was no reason for her to not believe it. She firmly nodded her head, "Yes, Liu Xiang will remember this, no matter what happens, Miss will not abandon Liu Xiang."
"That's right." Xi Jiu Er smiled, and started to size up the house in front of her. Although the arrangement was simple, but it was very clean, and in the end, she shifted her gaze towards the shocked ex-sister-in-law at the door, and smiled: "You are ex-sister-in-law?" She seemed to be in a coma, but her mind was very clear, and she could clearly hear everyone's voices.
"Miss, are you alright?" ex-sister-in-law stepped forward happily and bowed: "My late husband's surname is Qian, he is known as ex-sister-in-law."
"Hehe, ex-sister-in-law doesn't need to be so courteous. These are all empty courtesies, I will need your care in the future and will have to trouble ex-sister-in-law further." Xi Jiu Er removed the bracelet from her wrist and handed it over to ex-sister-in-law: "ex-sister-in-law, I liked you the first time. I don't have anything for you, so I'll give you the bracelet on me."
ex-sister-in-law shook her head. "Taking care of Miss is my duty, I don't dare to take his bracelet. Please take it back, Miss."
"ex-sister-in-law, just guard it. There is nothing to be afraid of." Xi Jiu Er gave the bracelet to ex-sister-in-law, but ex-sister-in-law was unable to take it off and could barely put it away.
When this ex-sister-in-law saw the high grade bracelet, her eyebrows didn't even twitch. Either she didn't know what was good, or she had seen many of these things already! Her words and actions were dignified and dignified, she did not try to please others, but she was deliberately making things difficult for them. Her smiling face gave people a feeling that she was a thousand miles away … This ex-sister-in-law probably had some background.
"Liu Xiang, let's go. Let's take a look at our new residence."
The yard was not big, but it was large enough that it could fit in at any size. It was slightly bigger than an ordinary yard. Elder Xi's Madame's courtyard was much bigger than this one … Xi Jiu Er looked at Liu Xiang who was beside her with a gloomy face, she knew what she was worried about, how could the conditions here compare to that of Xi Family? [I have to reflect on this for a month, for a year and a half?]
"Don't worry. We won't be staying for long. Have you forgotten that I still have a grandfather?" Xi Jiu Er said indifferently. Even if she didn't have her grandfather, she could still think of a way to leave this place. Since First Lady brought her here, it probably wasn't that simple … She reckoned that she still had other tricks up her sleeves.
In a short while, ex-sister-in-law had prepared a few small dishes. Although she did not feel hungry after drinking the spring water, but looking at the porridge, which had a rich fragrance, the smell spread throughout the room made Xi Jiu Er's appetite rise.
"Miss, these are the only things in this remote place." ex-sister-in-law said: "Tell me what Miss wants to eat. If I can buy it, I will definitely make it for you."
This ex-sister-in-law is truly a wonderful person, she talks a lot, whoever can buy it will buy it for her. This was indirectly telling her that other than these, there was nothing else in this countryside. If you wanted to eat delicacies, there was nothing else. Liu Xiang was a stubborn girl, sometimes her head would not turn but instead, think things through. She needed a quiver at her side, and this ex-sister-in-law probably had not married again, so she did not know if she would be willing to follow him.
Xi Jiu Er thought for a while, then smiled: "ex-sister-in-law, don't call me Miss, just call me Jiu Er. If Jiu Er doesn't care about food, Jiu Er will eat whatever ex-sister-in-law does." While speaking, she started to eat heartily as if the porridge in front of him was even more delicious than the delicacies of the sea and mountains.
ex-sister-in-law revealed a smile, "It's good that Miss doesn't mind."
After eating, the sky gradually darkened and the ex-sister-in-law began to prepare a bed. Xi Jiu Er realized that she had done it very carefully, and it was obvious that she was a person whose life was very particular. She didn't know why, but she was probably born into a big family. This kind of temperament that came from her bones wasn't something that could be developed the day after tomorrow.
"Thank you, ex-sister-in-law." Xi Jiu Er was making friends with the ex-sister-in-law sincerely, and didn't treat her as a servant at all. With the intelligence of the ex-sister-in-law, he should be able to understand this point.
"This is what I should do." The smile on the ex-sister-in-law's face became more sincere, and she left after bowing. It was truly beautiful to look at her back.
At night, Xi Jiu Er slept soundly in space, and on the second day, he was full of energy: "Liu Xiang, how about we go out for a stroll when we have time?"
Liu Xiang's hand paused for a moment, then raised her head and asked with doubt: "Miss, are we not going to look for Prince Fu? That way we can get out of here sooner. " What if she worried about staying here for a long time? Although it was a reflection, but when it came to reflecting, who knew how long it would take. Seeing that her master wasn't worried at all, she was truly worried.
"Don't worry, I'll make them obediently invite me back." Xi Jiu Er laughed with confidence. Just then, her gaze was attracted by ex-sister-in-law, who was carefully drying the seeds, and couldn't help but go over to ask curiously, "ex-sister-in-law, what seeds are these? Is it precious? "
ex-sister-in-law laughed: "Miss, this time, the seeds of Chinese vanilla herb are very rare, and very difficult to plant. If they are planted, a single one of them can be bought for a thousand silvers. It's a pity — I've never been able to grow it. " Her voice revealed a faint sense of loss, Xi Jiu Er's gaze moved to the small box at the side. The seeds inside the box were dry and shriveled, and she was not as full as the purpose in ex-sister-in-law's hands.
"Is this also the seed of a Chinese vanilla herb?" Xi Jiu Er pointed.
ex-sister-in-law nodded her head: "Yes, but those seeds have already been abandoned and cannot be planted."
Xi Jiu Er thought about how her personal space had spring water and how she heard Qiu Qiu said that it could nourish everything. She decided to give this seed a try to see how it would turn out. If the effect was good, then she would definitely be lucky! Xi Jiu Er calculated in her heart, and revealed a smile as she asked: "ex-sister-in-law, since this seed is useless, can you give it to me?"
"..." "Sure!" Although ex-sister-in-law was curious about what Xi Jiu Er was going to do with this, she did not ask.
"ex-sister-in-law, Liu Xiang and I are planning to go out for a walk in a few days, is that okay?" Xi Jiu Er laughed and asked, as though she did not know what she was about to face once she reached the villa, as though she did not care at all. However, based on her many years of experience viewing people, she could tell that the girl in front of him was not someone who was at ease with the current situation.
Originally, he did not plan to accompany Xi Jiu Er out. He was the only one taking care of the villa, what if something happened to her after he went out? Why don't I just take her around for a while to get my bearings? I don't need to follow her from now on. Then he said: "If Miss wishes to go, of course you can. At that time, this humble servant will bring Miss on a tour around the little town."
"Thank you, ex-sister-in-law."
In the space, Xi Jiu Er dipped the Chinese vanilla herb in a bit of spring water, and stared fixedly at the seed in her hand, hoping for a miracle to happen. Not long after, a change appeared as the seed was contaminated by the spring water, and under the nourishment of the spring water, the withered seed gradually became full, as if it had drank a lot of water.
Qiu Qiu bounced over, gathered around his head, with a serious look on his face.
Xi Jiu Er buried the seed in the ground, patting the soil in her hand and asked: "Qiu Qiu, when do you think the seed will sprout?"
Qiu Qiu shook his head: "I'm not sure, but I think it will be very soon."
Is that so? Xi Jiu Er couldn't help but feel sleepy. Unknowingly, she actually had a dream, and the dream was of a beautiful young man, the two of them being together … When she woke up, her cheeks were burning. She actually had a dream, a dream! Xi Jiu Er was completely stunned. Qiu Qiu ran over happily and said, "Master, master, the seed has sprouted. It has sprouted …"
"So fast!" Xi Jiu Er was shocked, she immediately ran over to take a look, and as expected, the seed had sprouted. The tender green leaves announced its arrival. Xi Jiu Er was both surprised and happy. With such a strong ability, how long would it take for him to grow up? This is worth thousands of gold. With these, she would have silver taels … These were all pure silver.
"Qiu Qiu, when you grow up, just tell me." Thinking that it was about time for him to return, he left a message for her.
Qiu Qiu nodded his head: "Rest assured Master, Qiu Qiu will immediately inform you when I grow up." Qiu Qiu promised as if he was a small adult, making Xi Jiu Er laugh.
