Zi Tong was stunned for a moment, not knowing what she meant by extending her hand.

Xue Rou'er suddenly realized that ancient people didn't know the etiquette of shaking hands, and immediately turned slightly red and said: "I just shake hands with you to show that we will be friends in the future."

Zi Tong smiled slightly, and it was clear that this smile came from his heart. The light pierced his eyes and reached his heart, making Xue Rouer's heart tremble.

His big jade hands wrapped around Xue Rou'er's small hand and held it tightly, saying: "My name is Zi Tong, it's nice to meet you."

Xue Rou'er stared at Zi Tong's big hand, then looked at her ugly carrot-like hand, immediately blushed, pulled it back and said, "Your method is wrong."

Zi Tong asked like a child: "What's wrong? Please teach me."

Xue Rou'er said: "Don't hold the entire handshake with a woman, otherwise you will be seen as a slut. Just hold the fingertips, three fingers will do."

Zi Tong immediately reached out and pinched Xue Rou'er's fingertips, causing Xue Rou'er to squat down in pain.

"How are you? I didn't mean it, I forgot you were injured." Zi Tong panicked.

Xue Rouer waited until the heartbreaking pain passed, and then she took a breath and said, "It's okay."

Zi Tong suddenly said seriously: "Come with me, my house is a hundred times better than here. Let me protect you, and you will never be wronged for the rest of your life." He was startled as soon as the words came out, this was not the case.

Asking for a hand in marriage?

Xue Rou'er raised her head and smiled brightly: "No, I won't go with you. I will fight on my battlefield."

Zi Tong was moved by her firm and unyielding expression, and said pitifully: "But you are just a weak woman, how can you protect yourself?"

Xue Rouer smiled and said: "I am not dead, this is the proof. If they fail to kill me, then I will live a more beautiful life than them!"

Purple Eyes couldn't speak for a long time. It was clear that the woman in front of him was not yet underage, and her face had not grown yet, but she was more beautiful than the morning sun and more charming than the sunset! He had thought that his appearance was unparalleled since he was a child, and that no woman in the world could catch his eye, but her face

To Xue Rou'er, he felt ashamed.

Xue Rou'er will continue to fight for her own world. She must not only restrain her enemies, but also live a more exciting life! This alone makes him ashamed. Maybe he should break out of his father's wings and find his own way.

Zi Tong held Xue Rou'er in her arms, but held her tightly for a moment before letting go, and said firmly: "Wait for me for one year, when you are fifteen and I can lift the sedan chair, Shili Hongzhuang will come to marry you." After that,

He took the knife from her body and stuffed a black dagger into her.

"Hey..." Xue Rou'er wanted to refuse but it was too late. It was the first time in her life that she had seen ancient Qing Kung. It really came and went without a trace!

She lowered her head and looked at the dagger in her hand. It was completely black and in the shape of a tube. After she pulled it out, the sharp blade only half a finger wide shone coldly. This one was a hundred times sharper than the one she held, and it was three inches long. It was a murder weapon.

The entire dagger was no bigger than a palm and could be easily concealed, which echoed her sentiments.

"Meow!" Garfield called from the bottom of her feet.

Xue Rou'er lowered her head and saw Garfield holding a black cloth bag in his mouth, and opened it curiously. Inside were two bottles of elixirs, a box of transparent paste and a note.

"Rou'er, I'm going to find my own path. I can no longer be a child protected by my father. Let's give each other a year to experience and grow. You must wait for my Shili Hongzhuang!

The two bottles of medicine are elixirs that can cure diseases and strengthen the body. The jade box contains muscle-building and scar-removing cream, which will ensure that you will not leave scars and become beautiful for me to marry.

I’ll leave you with Garfield. He is a civet that has been trained for three years in the dark night. He can understand human language. If he wants to do anything sneaky, just let him do it. If there is really nothing to do, then fatten him up and be at our wedding.

The big dishes are also available, wait for me!"

Xue Rou'er's eyes twitched after reading the note, and finally read the last paragraph to Garfield in a bad way. As expected, Garfield put its ears behind its head and looked at her with an innocent face.

"Don't worry, I won't let him eat you." Xue Rou'er didn't know whether it was because of Zi Tong's promise or having Garfield as a civet cat. She was in a very good mood and was so excited that she didn't want to sleep.

But God plays tricks on people, and the outcome of the two of them is destined to be a storm...

Xue Rou'er couldn't sleep, so she simply went to the small kitchen to wash the fish maw, cut it into pieces, add medicinal ingredients and boil it. While waiting, she applied the box of plaster on her fingers. It was cool and comfortable, but she didn't know if it could really remove scars.

.

The fish maw was cooked, and Xue Rouer made a charcoal fire to warm it so that the eldest lady could eat it tomorrow morning. It was already midnight after all this was done, so she yawned and went to sleep.

There was a lot of noise outside early the next morning, with the girls and women chattering non-stop.

After Yu Nu got up, she went out to fetch some washing water and said, "Miss, it seems we really need a few girls to come over. When I got up, the lady had already finished washing herself."

Xue Rou'er stretched out and said: "I will look for opportunities to ask for a few, but as you know the current situation, Jiu Yiniang is afraid that the person coming here will be her spy."

Yu Nu nodded and said: "This is also true."

When Xue Rouer went to wash her face, she was surprised to find that her red and swollen fingers had regained their slenderness. Although the fallen nails did not regenerate overnight, the pain had disappeared. The plaster was really miraculous.

After the two of them got dressed up, Xue Rouer put on her jewelry. At first glance, she looked very plain, but at second glance, she realized that the jewelry was luxurious, which perfectly complemented her status as a legitimate daughter.

Yunu looked at her and said: "Miss, I think this is too plain. Why don't you bring the set of hair and noodles given by the third lady?"

Xue Rou'er smiled and said, "Isn't it bad to be plain? Besides, these jewelry are worth a lot, and they suit my status as a legitimate daughter. Besides, today's protagonist is the third sister. She is a beauty now. We can't steal the spotlight from the royal family."

She looked in the mirror and was very satisfied with her outfit and said, "Let's go and see my mother."

Entering the eldest lady's bedroom, I saw the eldest lady in a daze.

"Mom, why don't you wear jewelry? Could it be that uncle didn't do it well?" Xue Rouer asked with a smile.

The eldest lady frowned and said, "I'm wondering whether to wear the hood given to me by Third Sister. If I don't wear it, wouldn't it be against her kindness?"

Xue Rou'er picked up the set of jade hairpins on the dressing table, looked at it, and said: "This set is not good..." She touched the jade, and something suddenly flashed in her mind, and her face suddenly changed, and she said: "Oops.

It’s terrible, it’s terrible, it’s terrible..." After saying that, she started to circle around in the room.

Both the eldest lady and Yu Nu were confused by her actions. Finally, the eldest lady couldn't stand it anymore and asked her, "Rou'er, what happened?"
