Rise From the Humble

When the demon girl Ruonan giggled and said she was absolutely right, all the girls and ladies present glared at her angrily.

This female bandit deceived Hua'er and kidnapped her uncle with the intention of seeking wealth and killing her, yet she was so shameless. If my uncle hadn't been blessed with great fortune and great abilities, wouldn't he have been murdered by this female bandit a long time ago?

Hate value +100

Contempt value +100

Alienation value +100

The maids present felt a strong hatred and contempt for the demon Ruonan almost at the same time, and decided to distance themselves from the demon Ruonan and put the demon Ruonan on their blacklist.

The reaction of everyone, the demon girl Ruonan felt it instantly. Because as soon as she finished speaking, she felt that the temperature around her instantly dropped several degrees, as if she was in an ice cellar, and goosebumps all over her body.

She discovered the reason as soon as she glanced out of the corner of her eye. Everyone present looked at her coldly and glared at her.

It's weird if it's not cold.

Not everyone, though.

When the demon girl Ruonan glanced at Hua'er from the corner of her eyes, she couldn't help but smile. Hua'er was the only exception.

Indeed, all the maids and women present were rude to the witch Ruonan, with the only exception being Hua'er.

Because Hua'er had known these inside stories for a long time, she reacted more fiercely than everyone else at first. However, after several months of getting along day and night and experiencing so many things together, the relationship got better and warmed up.

"I also heard that the boy and girl had known my husband before Jingnan?" Li Shu asked curiously.

"That's right." The demon Ruonan did not deny it.

ah? This female bandit actually knew my uncle before? Then why do you kidnap your uncle when you see him again, with the intention of seeking wealth and killing him? He has no mercy at all. This female thief is really cold-blooded!

The negative emotions of everyone present towards the demon Ruonan soared again.

"I heard from the villagers who went to Huaining County for the county examination with my husband that a boy or girl led someone to rob them on the way. I don't know if it is true or not." Li Shu smiled and asked with interest.

What?

It turned out that we had known each other before. It was a female bandit who robbed my uncle once? ! ! !

Everyone present was stunned.

"Yes, and no." The demon girl Ruonan couldn't help but frowned when she mentioned the past.

"Oh, why." Li Shu asked with interest, but still added very considerately, "If the boy and girl are in trouble, then forget it."

"It's nothing embarrassing. We did rob them at the beginning. To be precise, we robbed everyone else except Zhu Pingan, but in the end we were robbed by Zhu Pingan." The demon Ruonan gritted her teeth slightly.

"Nonsense. I am a scholar, and besides, I am still alone. How could I rob you bandits?" The girls and women present all questioned, thinking that the witch Ruonan was confusing right and wrong.

"Although I don't want to admit it, it's the truth. Believe it or not." The demon Ruonan didn't bother to explain.

"I also heard that my husband-in-law saved your life. I wonder if it is true?" Li Shu asked again.

"There was such a thing. During the Anqing Mansion Examination, I was injured and drowned, but he rescued me ashore."

The enchantress Ruonan nodded, said something simple, gritted his teeth slightly, during which Zhu Ping'an even took advantage of him.

Hearing this, the girls and women present became even more angry. My uncle helped you by saving his life, but you repaid your kindness with a grudge. You didn't even know how to express your gratitude, and you even kidnapped your uncle to seek wealth and murder! !

"Ruonan, it turns out that my uncle was robbed by you when he participated in the county examination. It turns out that my uncle really saved your life, so why don't you return it in Jingnan?" Hua'er, the little maid of Baozi, puffed up her mouth.

After the kidnapping incident in Jingnan, Hua'er knew that Ruonan and his uncle had met twice before Jingnan. Every time they met, Ruonan yelled at his uncle to kill him, but he didn't know the specific situation. Unexpectedly, the truth turned out to be like this. The first time they met, it was Ruonan who robbed his uncle who came to the city to take the exam. The second time they met, it turned out that his uncle had really saved Ruonan. Back in Jingnan, when Ruonan kidnapped her and her uncle, her uncle said that he had a favor for saving Ruonan's life. Ruonan retorted and said he didn't know whether he was saving his life or taking advantage of others. Hua'er thought there was a misunderstanding. I didn’t expect that my uncle really saved Ruonan and was a life-saving grace. Ruonan even kidnapped my uncle.

"Hua'er and Jingnan are all misunderstandings. Who asked him to raise the price of food so high after the flood when there was a food shortage? I thought he was a corrupt official who didn't care about the lives of the people and made money from the disaster."

The demon girl Ruonan explained helplessly that she didn't care if others misunderstood her, but she couldn't ignore Hua'er.

"Okay, everything is in the past. Ruonan and the others have changed their ways. Uncle Ruo and the others in the village are all working under the command of the husband. After careful calculation, Ruonan is also one of our own."

Li Shu said with a smile.

"We don't dare to be one of our own with a female thief."

"We regard her as one of our own, but does she regard us as her own? How can our own people rob our own people time and time again?"

All the girls and women murmured in low voices.

"What are you mumbling about?" Li Shu glanced at them, and everyone reluctantly stopped talking.

"Zhui'er, go to the warehouse and get two pieces of gold-woven brocade, and a box of hairpins, and give them to the boy and girl as a meeting gift."

Li Shu glanced at the demon Ruo Nan and ordered with a smile.

"Ah?" Upon hearing this, Zhui'er opened her mouth in disbelief and uttered doubts. This female thief had repeatedly robbed her uncle and brought her to the official court without tying her up. How could she be given such a generous meeting gift?

"Ah, what, go quickly." Li Shu laughed and scolded, "I'm usually just like a good-luck boy, but why did I change my mind today?"

"Slave, go now." Zhui'er turned around reluctantly, and before leaving, he gave the demon Ruo Nan a look.

"Miss Zhui'er, stay here." The demon girl Ruonan called to Zhui'er, and then thanked Li Shu with cupped fists, "Thank you very much, Miss Li. It's said that you don't get rewarded for your unworthy work. I haven't made a single contribution, so how can I accept Miss Li's meeting gift?"

"I don't know how to lift people." Zhui'er and the others muttered in a low voice, "I guess I'm used to snatching. I think it's too little."

"Giggle. Miss Li, I will be the mother of the child soon. It would be nice if boys and girls call me Young Madam." Li Shu covered her mouth and giggled, and her tone was slightly serious on the word 'young Madam' After a few minutes, he continued, "We are all from the same family. A little greeting ceremony, but the courtesy is light and the affection is heavy. If you are a boy or a girl, you don't need to see each other outside."

"Young Madam," the demon Ruonan paused for a moment, then smiled, "Thank you very much, Young Madam, just forget it as a greeting gift. It's really no reward, but if Young Madam insists on giving me a greeting gift, then I will make a request shamelessly. .”

"If you are a boy or girl, please tell me. As long as I do my best, I will not disappoint you." Li Shu said with a smile.

"I have been living with Hua'er during this period. When Hua'er returned to your mansion, I became homeless. I hope I can stay in your mansion for a while, and I hope the young lady will allow me." The demon girl Ruonan clasped her fists. road.

"Hua'er is back. This is the yard you lived in before. How could you be homeless?" A girl curled her lips.

"Huh, if she wants to stay here, she must have some bad intentions." Some people slandered.

"Gee, what am I talking about? Someone has already cleaned up the room for Ruo Nan and Miss Ruo. If the boy and girl are my husband's guests, they are naturally my guests. There is no reason to kick the guests out."

Li Shu replied with a smile.

"Ah, have you packed it up a long time ago?" The demon girl Ruonan couldn't help being surprised when she heard this. She was very surprised.

I thought it was a tough battle, so I tried my best, but ended up shaking my waist.

"Of course. I'll take the boy and girl to have a look later and see if there's anything missing. Just ask the housekeeper to add more."

Li Shu's smile remained unchanged.
