"Humph! Stinky girl, hiding the baby and not knowing how to take it out, her eyelids are so shallow, she deserves to be thrown into the countryside! Where? No, where did you put it? ”

Lin Xiaojiu frowned, her ears filled with a sharp and eager whisper, accompanied by the sound of a woman rummaging through boxes and cabinets, she opened her eyes and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

Meng Shi was digging out a small box with a lock from the dilapidated wardrobe, and when he turned around, he met a pair of inexplicable eyes with emotion, and the wooden box in his hand fell to the ground in fright.

She stroked her chest and rolled her eyes secretly, "I'm scared to death, what are you trying to do this dead girl?" ”

Lin Xiaojiu frowned lightly and did not speak.

Meng Shi picked up the box on the ground, his eyes flashed, and he squeezed out two smiles and sat in front of Lin Xiaojiu's couch, "Xiaojiu, did you pick up something outside a few days ago?" Take it out and let your aunt see it, okay? ”

Lin Xiaojiu blinked his eyes and put on a hesitant and tangled look.

Today, in his previous life, Meng Shi was not so good-tempered.

When she went to the mountains to pick wild vegetables, she inadvertently picked up a small piece of gold ore that was not much bigger than peanuts, which was remembered by Meng Shi, who wanted to get that thing, and made a little incense for her and secretly turned over her house.

In her previous life, she was in the house of the Marquis of Jingzhong, she was a delicate and stubborn concubine, even if she was driven to the home of a distant relative Meng in the countryside, she did not want to be at the mercy of Meng......

She didn't think that she could be reborn, but she also understood now that having something that she couldn't protect was the source of her misfortune in her previous life, and she didn't want to follow the same path in her previous life.

Lin Xiaojiu suddenly realized, as if he knew what Meng Shi was talking about, took out a small stone shining with golden light from the dark cabinet on the inside of the bed, and handed it over obediently.

"Auntie, are you talking about this little stone I picked up? I look pretty good, but I don't know what it is, is this thing very valuable? ”

Meng Shi looked at her ignorant eyes and quietly took a sip.

The young lady who was raised in the backyard of the capital doesn't even know the gold ore, except for the dough, there is no place to use it!

But it also cheapened her.

She smiled and took the ore, hurriedly stuffed it in her sleeve, but her face was plain, "It's nothing, it's just that I heard someone say before that this thing is worth a few copper plates in the jewelry store in the town, I'll take it and ask to see if they want such a small one." ”

Lin Xiaojiu smiled well-behaved, "Okay." ”

Meng Shi pinched the small stone in his sleeve, rolled his eyes, and came to Lin Xiaojiu's side with a shy smile, "Xiaojiu, you tell your aunt, where did you pick up this stone?" I'll look for it again, and maybe I can sell it for a few more bucks. ”

Lin Xiaojiu chuckled, the one in the Marquis Mansion in Beijing wanted to ruin her and found her such a "nurturing grandmother", but he forgot that this kind of villain who is best at pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages is actually the best to handle.

She pursed her lips and thought about it, then shook her head with a light smile, "Auntie, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I can't tell you where it is, I can only remember the general direction, after all, I've only been in the village for a few months, and I'm not very familiar with the mountains." ”

As soon as Meng Shi heard that there was a play, he lifted Lin Xiaojiu's quilt and pulled her down, "Then you will go with me, and if you find it then, my aunt will buy you a beautiful silk flower!" ”

Lin Xiaojiu's eyes sneered, but he didn't refuse, he got up and changed into light clothes, and entered the mountain with Meng Shi against the red glow in the sky.

According to the memory of the previous life, the place where the gold ore was picked up was on the stone mill mountain at the east end of the stone mill village, and the two did not dare to light the torches, and when they entered the mountain, the sky was almost dark, and there were a few beast cries from time to time in the deep mountains.

Lin Xiaojiu couldn't remember the specific location very well, but she didn't think about taking Meng Shi to find it, so she only took her to climb up and down the steep slope.

"Xiaojiu, where did you find this stone? Why did you walk so much in a circle, as if you were still going around in one place? Meng Shi sat on the root of the tree, his slightly chubby body was too tired to move, and his clothes were already soaked with sweat.

She asked, wiped the beads of sweat, but saw that the person who had been walking steadily in front suddenly disappeared, and she seemed to be the only one left in the entire mountain forest!

"Small, small wine?" Meng Shi shrunk back, a little scared in his heart, "Lin Xiaojiu? Don't scare me! I can tell you, if you dare to play any tricks on me, don't blame me for withholding your rations! You—You're going to get me out quickly......"

After shouting for a long time, Meng Shi couldn't take a break, staggered around looking for someone, and looked at the surrounding woods in a panic, for fear that something would suddenly pop out.

Lin Xiaojiu hid behind a tree, shook the clod of soil in his hand, and saw Meng's voice appear on a steep slope, and suddenly smashed heavily at her.

"Ahh

As soon as Meng Shi turned around, he saw a black thing flying towards him, and one of his feet lost his square inch, and he slammed into the steep slope, and the whole person fell heavily on the steep slope, rolling all the way down the steep slope.

Lin Xiaojiu walked out from behind the tree, a hint of coldness in his eyes.

In her previous life, if it weren't for the Meng family who sold her to the rich man's house as a concubine for a little silver, she would not have been bullied by a few concubines in the rich man's backyard, living a miserable life all day long, and boiling herself to death!

Someone must be responsible for the grievances and sufferings she suffered in her previous life, but this level is still not enough, since she has lived another life, she must let those people in the Meng family and the rich family, as well as those in the capital, know that they don't think about tormenting her like they did to her mother!

Lin Xiaojiu smiled coldly, distinguished the direction in the mountains and forests, found a road that picked wild vegetables the most on weekdays, walked back quietly, and walked around to the foot of Shimo Mountain with a light car, to find the place where the gold ore was found.

Yellow and white things seem vulgar, but they are good things that can make her free and easy in this world, if she can find a gold mine, why should she share it with those evil wolves? Only by holding something in her hands can she have some confidence in this world.

It was almost dark, Lin Xiaojiu followed the location in his memory, and found nothing, but found a black thing in the long grass, and the strong smell of blood was a little pungent.

Lin Xiaojiu picked up a branch and poked it, and saw that it looked like a person, so he cautiously leaned over and dragged out with his clothes at will.

"Hey, you—are you still alive? ......"She thought that after shedding so much blood, it should be impossible to do anything to her, so she had the audacity to turn the person upside down and remove the broken hair that blocked her face.

Only taking a closer look at it by the moonlight, Lin Xiaojiu was suddenly startled and almost fell to the ground.

This is a man, or someone she met once when she was in the capital!

Luo Xuanze, the regent of the dynasty, was powerful and ruthless, and even her black-hearted and black-lung father stayed away.

It's just that such a person, how can he be here? Still so badly injured?

She reached out and probed under Luo Xuanze's nose, quietly breathed a sigh of relief, stood in place and groaned for a moment, bent down to put his arm on her shoulder, and helped him move towards Meng's courtyard little by little.

This is a rare big man, if he owes her Lin Xiaojiu a life-saving grace, will he be embarrassed to pay it back?
