Raiders of Abuse Scum

Bai Lian took the box.

Seeing Jiujiu taking the gift she sent, Li Xiuwan breathed a sigh of relief, "I felt friendly when I met Miss Nan yesterday. I wonder if I can make friends with Miss Nan."

Jiujiu glanced at Li Xiuwan's eyes that she thought were sincere, but were actually full of calculations, and nodded slightly. She wanted to see what kind of medicine Li Xiuwan was selling in her gourd.

Seeing Jiujiu nodding, Li Xiuwan immediately said, "Since we are already friends, I will definitely come to bother the girl more in the future. I hope she doesn't get bored."

Jiujiu smiled slightly, "Since we are already friends, why would I feel bored? It's true that I came to the capital just a few years ago. I have to ask Miss Li for advice on matters in the capital."

Li Xiuwan responded naturally, "This is natural."

Seeing Li Xiuwan agree, Jiujiu's smile became even brighter, and the pear dimple at the corner of her mouth became even deeper, making her face even more beautiful.

Even though Li Xiuwan was very fed up with Jiujiu, she couldn't help being dazzled by Jiujiu's smile. She thought to herself that if she had looked like Nanxiang in her previous life, her cousin would not have taken such a concubine.

Li Xiuwan came this time to apologize to Jiujiu. Now that Jiujiu had accepted her apology, she didn't stay long and stood up to leave.

After Li Xiuwan left, Jiujiu asked Bai Lian to take the blood bird's nest to the warehouse.

Li Xiuwan wanted to marry Xiao Rong, so she naturally hated her so much that she wished she could be sent to the west with poison to see if he could give her something good.

Jiujiu talked to Li Xiuwan for half an hour, then came back to listen to the opera singers singing.

Without Li Xiuwan's interruption, Jiujiu finally listened to the entire song.

Another song about an infatuated temptress and a heartless man.

It's a pity that the fox demon was so affectionate and paid the wrong price in the end. He lost his money and his life, and benefited the sanctimonious and hypocritical scholar in vain.

Jiujiu felt sorry for a while, then asked Bailian to reward the opera singer with some silver coins, and then had someone send him out.

The Spring Festival is coming soon, Xiao Rong has to go to the palace every day, so naturally he has no time to look for Jiujiu. Jiujiu is either reading or listening to music every day, and her life is extremely comfortable.

On the day of the Spring Festival, Jiujiu and Li Guiqin were not qualified to attend the palace banquet, but they did not expect Princess Jiarong to speak up and forcefully take them to the palace banquet.

During this period, the emperor, queen and queen mother kept calling Jiujiu to come forward and reply.

Jiujiu was very generous and answered fluently no matter what they asked. The three of them couldn't help but nod. If Xiao Rong hadn't told them not to use their power to intimidate, they would have wished to marry them immediately.

This girl is so lovable that I wish I could marry her to Xiao Rong right now.

However, when the three of them came to the palace banquet, even if they were not given a marriage, their intention to betroth Jiujiu to Xiao Rong was already very obvious.

Naturally, no one dared to take advantage of Jiujiu.

The three of them had no relatives or friends in the capital, so they naturally didn't need to visit relatives. But what they didn't expect was that on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the eldest princess and her family took the initiative to come to pay New Year's greetings.

During the meal, Princess Jiarong looked very satisfied with Jiujiu in her words. In such a manner, as long as Nan Dongbei nodded, she would go to the palace to ask for a marriage.

The emperor and the queen mother stood behind Princess Jiarong. She was not comparable to Nan Dongbei, who only had marquises but no rights. Princess Jiarong said this, even if Nan Dongbei was unwilling in every way, she also knew that, Jiujiu and Xiao Rong's marriage is basically decided.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, Xiao Rong came to pick up Jiujiu early in the morning.

Jiujiu originally thought that Xiao Rong was going to take her to see the lanterns, but she didn't expect that Xiao Rong would take her to a medical center. When she opened the door, there was a faint smell of paint on her nose.

Xiao Rong pointed to the medicine cabinet filled with small compartments, "I have purchased all the medicinal materials. If you are willing, you can open a store tomorrow. How about it? Do you like it?"

Xiao Rong was like a pampered little puppy, looking at Jiujiu with bright eyes. If Xiao Rong had a tail, it would have been wagging crazily at this moment.

Looking at Xiao Rong's little appearance, Jiujiu couldn't help but reach out and wipe Xiao Rong's head, and said with a smile, "I like it very much, thank you."

After receiving Jiujiu's words of liking, Xiao Rong grinned with a silly smile, "As long as you like it, that's fine. By the way, I'm going to Hancheng in a few days."

Hancheng is a border town of Dasheng Kingdom, where Huns looting occurs every winter.

Previously, the unified country was too weak to launch a war, and the Xiongnu only plundered food every year without causing many casualties. Therefore, in winter, the Hancheng County magistrate would have people prepare food and then leave.

The Xiongnu also knew the current affairs and only took away food without harming anyone. The two countries have coexisted in seemingly "peaceful" ways for more than ten years.

This has become the default rule.

Who would have thought that in winter, the Huns not only robbed food, but also robbed women and massacred the people of Hancheng wantonly, causing a large number of casualties.

Before, when the country's power was weak, the emperor was willing to send some food to calm the situation, but now the Huns took the lead in tearing up the treaty of 'peaceful coexistence'.

Now that the country is prosperous, it is no longer the time when food was needed to maintain peace.

The Xiongnu robbed women and killed unarmed ordinary people, so the emperor naturally prepared to send troops to attack the Xiongnu.

After Xiao Rong knew about this, he was ready to take the initiative to ask for help.

Xiao Rong didn't want to rely on his status as a parent to marry Jiujiu. He wanted to rely on his own ability to work hard in his career so that Jiujiu could marry with glory and become his wife.

After hearing Xiao Rong's plan, Jiujiu said congratulations very sincerely.

After receiving Jiujiu's blessing, Xiao Rong hugged Jiujiu and asked, "If I come back safely, can you marry me?"

Xiao Rong's face lost its usual frivolity and turned red, filled with embarrassment and uneasiness.

Jiujiu nodded with a smile in her eyes, "Okay."

Here, I will eventually get married.

Rather than marrying a man you don't know, it's better to marry a man you know.

Such as Xiao Rong.

Although he wears the shell of the second generation ancestor, Xiao Rong is a very, very good man in his heart.

With Jiujiu's consent, Xiao Rong had a silly smile on his face for the next time. When the lanterns were put on, Xiao Rong even wrote in front of Jiujiu, "I, Xiao Rong, want to marry Nan Xiang." The word "wife".

However, because I was too excited, the word "smile" was written crookedly and very ugly.

soon.

Xiao Rong's imperial edict to lead the army to Hancheng was issued.

The day before Xiao Rong left, Jiujiu went to see Xiao Rong. Jiujiu gave Xiao Rong the medicines she had prepared in the past few days.

"I write down the disease and how to take it on a piece of paper and stick it on the bottle. If you feel uncomfortable, you can find medicine and take it by yourself. This is Jinchuang medicine, so I am more prepared."

Xiao Rong was extremely happy that Jiujiu could come to see him, and Jiujiu not only came to visit him, but also brought him so many medicines.

It can be seen that Jiujiu has her own feelings in her heart.
