Gaze

  Heavy rain, the air is clear and refreshing. The leaves are a deep green as if dripping with water, and the stone steps in the courtyard have been washed clean. Water droplets still cling to the eaves of the roof, transparent and sparkling with rhythm, proving that even the dust on the ridgepole has been washed away.

  Xiao Zongrong took a deep breath of fresh air, feeling very comfortable. This heavy rain helped Chunxiang a lot, she didn't have to work so hard sweeping the yard anymore.

  Thinking of Chunxiang, the corners of her mouth curled up with a hint of smile. The little girl was afraid of ghosts and insisted on not staying there, but after half a day of persuasion, she couldn't dispel her fear, so she pulled her hand and said: "From today onwards, Xiao Zongrong and Chunxiang will temporarily reside here, if there's any disturbance, it's all Xiao Zongrong's fault, you can blame me for everything... don't involve Chunxiang..."

  As soon as she said this, Chunxiang was furious, and she suddenly broke free from him, panting with anger: "How can you talk like that? Chunxiang and you agreed to leave Xiao Fu together, sharing the difficulties and joys, what is this?"

  Xiao Zongrong laughed: "Silly girl, I'm just teasing you! We haven't done anything wrong, what are we afraid of? Besides this one thing, don't you think it's great here? So many rooms are ours, even if we change bedrooms every day, it'll take a month to finish them all. I think no one in the Xiao Manor has a bigger layout than us! Just follow me and let's rule the roost!"

  Chunxiang burst out laughing: "Rongrong, you've become a mountain bandit, who will dare to marry you in the future?"

  Xiao Zongrong waved his hand nonchalantly: "Isn't it better if no one marries? We'll just live by ourselves! Don't worry, you followed me, I won't let you regret it!"

  The little girl was also persuaded, and she willingly stayed behind. She took the initiative to find a large house as a foothold for the two of them, and somehow found several large boxes of firecrackers to light up the big house brightly. After being busy and tired for half a day cleaning, they didn't sleep until midnight.

  Xiao Zongrong was used to waking up early and saw that she slept soundly without disturbing her, quietly moving the wheelchair out for exercise.

  Yu's big yard is very large, but due to the limitations of her wheelchair, there are some places she can't go. This made her think of making a pair of crutches, so that she wouldn't be confined by this wheelchair. Thinking of the crutches she had seen in the hospital in her past life, she drew out a design in her mind and waited for Chun Xiang to wake up so that she could find paper and pen to draw it out and ask a craftsman to make it.

  She didn't worry about how to live in the future, ancient life was simple, a few taels of silver were enough for her and Chunxiang to eat their fill, and it was easy for her to get a few taels of silver. What she wanted to think about was how to make more money to take Chunxiang away from here and seek medical treatment for herself.

  Being able to stand up is currently the biggest hope, as long as this hope does not shatter, she will not give up, and other things can be said slowly.

  Lowering her head in contemplation, she suddenly thought of Chu Qingkuang. The corners of her lips rose slightly with sarcasm. That person had been watching the commotion outside the Xiao estate's courtyard yesterday and saw her being chased away without even entering the door. Was he thinking that she was worthless now or just waiting to see what would happen?

  Let's just wait and see! She herself has given an answer, just like her current mood, she can't be sure if he is the best partner or not, so let's just take a look first!

  As for another person, the second prince Wu Ming Zheng, Xiao's intuition was that no matter what his purpose was, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, and it's best to stay away from royal affairs as much as possible.

  Unfortunately, things often don't go as one wishes. Just as the sunlight had just shone into the courtyard, loud shouts came from outside the compound: "Rong Rong, I've come to pick you up!"
