Chapter 72: Jade Pendant and Blank Letters

Bi Tao and Xiao Xue listened to Luo Yao's words, and both raised their eyes to look at Li Xingchen at the same time.

Li Xingchen smiled awkwardly at them, patted his thigh and explained, "I'm really not a bad person, you don't have to look at me like this, right?" ”

"And what exactly do you want to do?" Luo Yao asked.

Glancing at them, Li Xingchen said with a serious face: "I have lived here for so long, and seeing that no one has come here, I plan to treat myself as my own home and live here for a long time. ”

"That's all?"

Li Xingchen raised his hand again, "I swear, I didn't lie to you." You can keep an eye on me in the future, and if I dare to do anything wrong, you will kill me. ”

Bi Tao and Xiao Xue pondered his words and walked back to Luo Yao.

"Princess, do you want to keep him?" Bi Tao asked.

They are new here, and they really need help.

For now, it seems that he did not do anything to hurt them, and he helped them clean up the house, and it was okay to leave him for the time being.

If it's really an enemy, it's better to keep them with you than to keep them in the shadows.

After thinking about this, Luo Yao looked at Li Xingchen again, "I believe you, you'd better say what you say is true." ”

"Thank you, sister."

After a pause, Li Xingchen hurriedly said again: "The sky is about to dawn, you guys should rest first!" ”

"Hmm."

As if he was not worried about them, Li Xingchen gave a few more words before leaving their room.

Seeing Li Xingchen leave, Bi Tao and Xiao Xue retracted their gazes at Luo Yao at the same time.

Luo Yao: "Sleep!" ”

"What about you?" Xiaoxue asked.

"I'm not sleepy."

After all, when she first came here, she didn't dare to sleep.

Bi Tao hurriedly said, "You and Xiaoxue sleep!" The slave and maid are guarding the house, and if anything happens, they will wake you up immediately. ”

"No need."

She didn't worry about Bi Tao guarding it, so she decided to keep it herself.

At her insistence, Bi Tao and Xiaoxue went back to the room to rest.

The room was quiet again, and she took out the letter and jade pendant that Xiao Yan handed her.

She looked at the jade pendant back and forth, and in addition to some special totems, there seemed to be a word engraved on it - Yu.

What does the word "Yu" mean?

Before she had time to think about it, her eyes fell on the letter.

She carefully opened the letter, and inside it was a blank piece of paper!

I changed different corners, looked back and forth for a long time, and it was still a blank piece of paper.

Jade pendant with words, blank paper.

Why did my mother keep these two things?

She was so dizzy from her thoughts in the house that she simply got up and left the room and walked around the house.

This house is much smaller than the palace, but fortunately, there is nothing lacking in it, and it will not have a great impact on their future lives.

In order to prevent her from leaving the house, Xiao Yan locked the front and back doors of the house, and there were still guards.

Yours is it!

She wants to get out, but this house can't stop her.

After thinking about it, she went to Li Xingchen's yard.

The yard is empty, where did the others go?

She searched the entire house, and finally found Li Xingchen in the backyard kitchen.

Li Xingchen was chopping vegetables in the kitchen, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly greeted her with a smile, "Sister, why are you here?" ”

"I couldn't sleep in a different place, so I just walked around." She stared at Li Xingchen's skillful chopping of vegetables, "You can also cook?" ”

It's rare to see a man who can cook these days.

Li Xingchen scratched his head embarrassedly, "I live here alone, if I can't cook, then I can only starve to death." ”

That's right.

Luo Yao didn't refute him, and went into the kitchen to see what he had done.

He prepared a lot of light side dishes, as well as vegetable and meat porridge, and it seemed that he had prepared even their portions.

He took out an empty bowl and spoon and handed it to Luo Yao, "Try the vegetable and meat porridge I made." ”

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Living in your house, I should always do something." Li Xingchen said with a smile.

Luo Yao didn't reply, and after carefully tasting the vegetable and meat porridge he made, she gave him a thumbs up.

"It tastes good."

Li Xingchen seemed to have received great encouragement, and he was as happy as a child.

Such a simple child really doesn't look like a bad person.

"How old are you?" Luo Yao asked.

"I'm 17 years old."

A few years younger than her.

She put down the bowl and spoon and asked, "Do you have men's clothes over there that I can wear?" ”

"What do you want men's clothing for?"

"Nature is useful."

Li Xingchen wiped his hands clean and turned back to his yard.

Back in the kitchen, he handed her a brand new men's suit, "This is my new purchase, I haven't had time to wear it yet, so I'll give it to you." ”

"Thank you."

Putting away her clothes, she left the kitchen.

Li Xingchen sent breakfast to their yard, and when the three of them had breakfast, Bi Tao and Xiaoxue kept praising Li Xingchen, and seemed to have regarded Li Xingchen as their own.

She just laughed and didn't say anything.

After breakfast, she changed into men's clothes and appeared in front of Bi Tao and Xiao Xue.

The two looked at her in surprise at the same time, and Bi Tao asked first: "Princess, what are you going to do here?" ”

"I have something to do, I need to go out."

They don't have any money, so they can't rely on Li Xingchen everywhere!

She had to plan for the future.

When Bi Tao heard this, she hurriedly reminded her, "The prince said that you are not allowed to leave here for half a step, if the prince knows......"

"He's not here, how do you know?"

"But ......"

She interrupted Bi Tao, "You don't have to worry about me, don't worry about me, rest assured that you can wait here for me to come back!" ”

"Princess......

Before Bi Tao's words were finished, Luo Yao had already walked away.

The two glanced at each other, and could only shrug helplessly.

Luo Yao came to a secluded corner of the backyard, jumped on the high wall, avoided the people guarding the front and back doors, and quietly left the house.

When she came to the bazaar, she happened to meet a small stall selling masks, and she bought a golden half-face mask from the stall.

If you wear a mask, you won't be afraid of being recognized by acquaintances.

She plans to go to the Shu family's shop, and she wants to find out if the Shu family's shop is something left by her mother.

As soon as he took a few steps, he was bumped by an oncoming man.

She frowned and glared at the man, "How did you walk?" ”

The man lowered his head and apologized, "I'm sorry! ”

The man smiled and hurriedly walked away.

Ignoring the episode, she continued on her way.

Her hand fell on her waist, and she suddenly stopped, her waist empty.

Her purse is gone!

She was already so poor that a damn thief would dare to steal her purse.

Thinking about it carefully, she quickly set her sights on the man who had just hit her.

She immediately walked back and chased after the man just now.

chased all the way to a gambling house, and finally saw a man wandering outside the door.

She stepped forward and grabbed the man, "Okay, you thief, you dare to steal my money bag, you see that I don't ......"

Seeing the man's face clearly, she swallowed back the words that followed.

How is he!
