"Oh, why is that creek called Five Creeks?"
"I heard from the young master that the Five Streams were named because they were divided into five tributaries from Hexiu Lake in Zaifu's mansion at that time. Zaifu's mansion was built on the lake, which is very spectacular. The stream where the young master found you is the largest tributary - Panliu River."
Xiaoru couldn't help but tease her, "Does Xiaorou want to marry into Zaifu's family? I think, I think our Xiaorou is really beautiful, there must be hope."
"Sister Xiaoru, what are you talking about? How dare a servant like me have such thoughts. Besides, the prime minister's only son, Li Yuanhe, has already been engaged to Liu Yu'er, the daughter of the richest family in the country. Liu Yu'er is a first-class Here’s the beauty.”
The sun was setting, and Xiaorou had already put away her embroidery work to prepare dinner. Xiaoru was also hungry, so she followed Xiaorou to the kitchen, hoping to take the opportunity to eat secretly.
The two of them happily ate dinner and went to bed separately. But Xiaoru had thought about it. After coming here for so long, she definitely had to go out and see what the ancient world was like. She couldn't come here in vain.
She got up early the next morning, "Xiaorou, just go out and play with me, please."
Xiaoru tried her best to persuade Xiaorou not to move. Why is this damn girl so stubborn
"Xiaorou, good sister, just obey me." Xiaoru was really at her wits end and resorted to all these tricks.
Just when Xiaoru was trying to persuade Xiaorou, the person who had just entered the courtyard from the front door stared at the pair of people in front of him with black lines on his face. What on earth were they doing? !
When Xiaoru was about to wrap around Xiaorou's body like a water snake, the man finally couldn't help but cough a few times to remind them that someone else was there.
"Young Master? Why are you here?" Xiaorou asked this question hesitantly, and then realized that asking about the master's private matters seemed a bit transgressive, so she lowered her head in embarrassment.
However, one person had no shame at all and kept shouting, "Why are you barging into my daughter's house? You are not a gentleman at all." This time, there were more black lines on the man's face.
"I just stopped by to see if the girl is recovering." Thinking that he might be able to take her out to play, someone temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart and put on a smile.
"Sir, you see, I have been harassing your house for so long, and I still don't know your name."
"My humble name is not worthy of recognition among girls." The young man waved his sleeves and brushed away the branches blocking his eyes, and smiled at Xiaoru gently.
"Then I have to know your last name, right?" Someone was still determined to break the casserole and ask the question.
"My surname is Murong. Since the girl is fine, I'll take my leave first. Please feel free to stay here, girl." Murong Hua cupped his hands to leave.
Xiaoru grabbed his sleeve in desperation and asked, "Can you take me out and have a look."
Murong Hua looked back at Xiaoru and was a little reluctant to see the tears in her eyes. "Why does the girl want to go out? If you need anything, just tell Xiaorou and she will buy it for you."
After all, you still have to be cautious. Murong Hua is not an idiot. Xiao Ru's origin is unknown. It is better to do less than to do more.
"Mr. Murong!" There must be no bottom line this time. Xiaoru changed her usual careless style and acted like a weak woman.
Murong Hua, a grown man, really couldn't see the tears in her eyes, so he would just let her go. This way you can also see what's going on outside.
Murong Hua was right, there was indeed a lot of rumors outside.
