Although Situ Rong returned to Jinsha Country, Situ Zhuo was still in Cen Kingdom, and today he came out for a walk with nothing to do, walking on the streets of the slums, Situ Zhuo felt that the backwardness here was not as decent as the vendors in the commercial street, and he looked depressed.

The streets here are narrower, the storefronts are poorly decorated, some of the shops are even covered with dust, and the women who set up stalls on the side of the road are not interested in shouting loudly, just sitting and waiting for people to buy goods, and a little girl caught Situ Zhuo's attention.

It is a girl who has just grown into a slim girl, although the little girl does not have the appearance of a country and a city, but she will like it at a glance, wearing a pale pink coarse cloth dress, and her long black hair without any hair accessories, it is also eye-catching, but the thick sorrow in her eyes, Situ Zhuo saw it from afar, what kind of girl is it?

Situ Zhuo walked up to the girl and saw that there was a basket of eggs and the only jade hairpin on the floor on her floor, and no one passing by at such a stall would not glance at it, because there was no need to look at it.

The girl raised her eyes and saw the tall and swarthy Situ Zhuo, and said weakly, "Boss, do you want to buy eggs?" The slight tone and weak eyes made Situ Zhuo feel pity.

"How do you sell this jade hairpin and eggs?" He pretended to be very normal, but for some reason his heart was already in chaos.

"One egg for one penny, as for the jade hairpin, boss, you can watch and buy it." The little girl may be selling on the street for the first time, and she doesn't understand that buying and selling is inevitably jerky, and the more she talks, the weaker her voice becomes.

"You're selling something for the first time? There are many street vendors and merchants on the street, who will come over with you like this? He asked, feeling that she was a little pitiful.

The little girl lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Situ Zhuo anymore, as if she had done something wrong, "My father used to come out to set up a stall, but now my father is critically ill and my mother is taking care of me, so I came out and sold the rest of the things that could be sold." As he spoke, he unconsciously tugged at the corner of his clothes.

Situ Zhuo saw everything in his eyes, saw that she was pitiful, and didn't say anything, and gave him two ingots of silver, "You take these, it should be enough to treat your father." He spread out her hand, stuffed her money, and went away.

The girl was stunned for a long time before she called out to him, "Wait a minute." Then he held the egg in one hand and the jade hairpin in the other, and caught up with him in small steps, "You forgot to take something." She mustered up the courage to dare to look at Situ Zhuo, stuffed the thing into Situ Zhuo's arms, and ran away with a twist.

Situ Zhuo looked at the figure farther and farther away, and he didn't know what it was like, but he felt that it was getting more and more empty, but the figure in the distance stopped again, "Thank you!" He bowed again before he really disappeared around the corner.

Hearing that thank you, Situ Zhuocai felt very warm in his heart, this feeling was not there before, even if it was a princess, she only felt blushing and heartbeat, and she would not feel satisfied or lost in her heart.

Situ Zhuo, who returned to his residence, played with the jade hairpin in his hand, as if there was still the temperature and taste of the other party on it, and he remembered her appearance in his mind, simple and indifferent, as if she was also a little cute and cute, and after thinking about it for a long time, he came back to his senses and found that he was actually fascinated by a woman, and he suddenly felt ashamed in his heart.

In the days that followed, Situ Zhuo would go to that street if he had anything to do, he didn't know what was going on with him, it was a road he would never pass, but he seemed to hope that a figure would appear and let him satisfy a trace of thirst in his heart, but every time he wandered for a long time but didn't see the person he wanted to see, it made him feel lonely in his heart.

Today, Mu Lingyun felt that the weather was exceptionally good and she didn't go out to breathe and waste, after going out, she didn't take the big road she used to walk before, but went to the slum where she hadn't been before, where there were all kinds of people, and Mu Lingyun wouldn't go normally, but today she felt as if something was going to happen.

Sure enough, when she was walking blindly on the path, she saw a big strong man shirtless in front of a shop on the side of the road, pushing a little girl's house, attracting a group of onlookers, of course Mu Lingyun couldn't bear it, she walked up, protected the little girl behind her, and shouted loudly, "In broad daylight, robbing the women of good families, there is no royal law." She stared at the big man who was a head taller opposite, and there was no stage fright at all.

The troublemaker looked Ling Yun up and down, and saw that she was dressed well, "Little lady, don't be nosy, the girl behind you is a thief, and I am about to ask her for the silver that Fang took away from me." Looking like a prosperous person, the crowd pointing and pointing, the little girl could only say timidly, "I don't, I don't..." She grabbed the sleeve of Ling Yun's coat, and her body trembled.

Let Mu Lingyun arouse her desire to protect, she stopped the strong man, and said arrogantly, "You said she stole your silver, but you saw it with your own eyes?" Mu Lingyun decided in her heart that she was in charge of this idle matter.

"How can she have so much silver on her body in a cloth coat with four walls, isn't it stolen?" The strong man was full of words, and his hands were on his hips and he wanted to win the curtain with momentum.

Mu Lingyun did make some sense when he heard it: "The girl has silver taels?" Where did it come from? Mu Lingyun still believed in this weak woman who seemed to be isolated and helpless.

The little girl said, "That's the money I used to sell the eggs and hairpins at home, not to steal from you." Said and cried again, sobbing and hooking up, causing everyone to point fingers at the strong man, the strong man couldn't hold back his face, and scolded, "You can have so much money selling an egg jade hairpin, do you think we are all three-year-old children?" After speaking, regardless of Mu Lingyun, he had to step forward and rob someone.

Seeing this, Mu Lingyun grabbed his wrist, turned around, and immediately buckled him behind him, causing the strong man to scream and everyone laughed.

"People say it's serious money, you just look at other people's money, and dare to quibble, be careful that I tear your mouth." Mu Lingyun clasped his hand with one hand and pinched his neck with the other, so that he could not move.

The girl saw that the strong man had also been punished, and was afraid that he would dislocate, so she persuaded her to stop, and she explained that there was a noble man who took pity on her so much money to give her so much money to her father, who was critically ill at home.

Under the mandatory request of Mu Lingyun, the strong man screamed and apologized to the girl, and the farce was over, and after everyone dispersed, the little girl shyly grabbed Mu Lingyun's hand, "Benefactor, thank you for helping me solve the siege today, the villain has nothing to reciprocate." ”

Mu Lingyun looked at her pitiful appearance, and her heart was also entangled, if she was left alone here, she would not necessarily be bullied again in the future, and she was also very worried.

"I see that you and I are destined, are you willing to go back to my house with me, and be my personal maid in the future?" Mu Lingyun held her hand and looked at her with sincere eyes.

When the little girl heard this, she hurriedly refused, "I'm rude, I can't do things well, and I'll make trouble for you." She actually wanted to go in her heart, but she felt that she had climbed others, so she could only refuse ruthlessly, and her heart became heavier.

Mu Lingyun saw the eagerness in her eyes, and persuaded her again, "You come to my house, and you can still have silver to subsidize your family, what is there to refuse?" I wanted to keep you because you were very fateful. Hearing her say this, the girl's heart was also moved, it was indeed her father who was critically ill and needed money, which was the only concern in her heart.

Reluctantly, he said, "Then I'll thank you in advance, but I still need to discuss it with my family before I can decide." ”

Mu Lingyun looked at her and said with a smile, "Yes, how good is this, I haven't asked your name yet?" ”

The little girl thought that she hadn't reported her name to each other yet, "My name is Chu Jingyue, just call me Xiaoyue." She lowered her head and smiled, finally letting go of a matter in her heart.

"My name is Mu Lingyun, hello" She shook hands with Chu Jingyue and said happily

"After you think clearly, go to the Mingwang Mansion to find the doorman and tell him that I asked you to come." She said proudly.

After the two left each other's names, they became more intimate, and Chu Jingyue gradually became less angry with her.

Mu Lingyun was very happy in her heart, if Chu Jingyue could come to the door, then she would have an extra companion in the future, so she would not be lonely, she wanted to go home quickly and tell Jin Shaoming about this matter and share it with him.

When she arrived at the Ming Palace, she saw Situ Zhuo wandering there, still holding something in her hand, she secretly ran behind Situ Zhuo, and then patted him on the shoulder hard, "Situ Zhuo!" A loud scream.

Situ Zhuo suddenly turned around and saw that it was Mu Lingyun, and he was a little cramped and boldly said, "Princess Ming, it's you." ”

Mu Lingyun saw that he was so flustered, and felt strange, "Why didn't you go in at the door, did you want to find Shaoming for something?" Mu Lingyun looked at him, his simple eyes made him feel red again.

Situ Zhuo twisted and pinched before spreading out the things in his hand to Mu Lingyun to see, it was a jade hairpin, although it was not much decorated, but it was a simple one, and the workmanship was also meticulous.

"Are you going to give me this?" Mu Lingyun took it in his hand and looked at it, it looked quite good-looking, although he usually didn't like to bring these troublesome objects, but thinking of Chu Jingyue who he met today, if she entered the mansion, she would give her this jade hairpin as a meeting gift, thinking beautifully in her heart, and her face also smiled.

Situ Zhuo looked at Mu Lingyun and smiled, then nodded with a red face, and held back for a long time before holding back a sentence, "Then the princess likes it, so I will leave first." After finishing speaking, he left in a hurry, every time he saw Mu Lingyun like this, he would blush and heartbeat unconsciously, which made Situ Zhuo a big man a little irritable.

Situ Zhuo didn't know why he was in such a mood, he felt cute and kind when he looked at Ling Yun, but it seemed that something was missing, and he kind of realized that it was like.

And Chu Jingyue, after going home and discussing with her parents at home, felt that she should go to the mansion to repay the princess's kindness, so the next day Chu Jingyue became a member of the Ming Palace.
