Qing'er placed the dishes and chopsticks for her as before and wiped the table for her, "I went to the capital first, but Aunt Wanchun said you were in Cheng'an County, so I rushed over immediately."
Mianmian raised her head slightly and asked, "Are you here specifically to find me?"
Qing'er nodded seriously, "That's right."
His appearance has changed a lot. His handsome face is not like his mother or his father. His cold and noble face is full of oppression that makes people unable to look up when facing outsiders. But here in Mianmian, He is still the same Xiao Qing'er as before, with gentleness between his brows.
Mianmian was very happy to see that he came specifically to look for her, "I saw that you didn't reply to me for a long time, I thought you had forgotten me a long time ago."
Qing'er lowered her head slightly, with a hint of guilt in her eyes, "I didn't mean not to reply to your letter." ?.?????.???
Mianmian asked in confusion: "Why is that?"
Qing'er took out her right hand, and three or four scars were clearly revealed on it, "In the past few years, I have been training in the Han Mountains of Beidi. The cold mountains are steep and the weather is cold, plus the enemy sneak attacks all year round, so I can't send out the letter. I originally I kept asking someone to send a message to Miss Qiao, but that person only collected money and did nothing."
Mianmian looked at the scars on his palms, and the grievances she had felt over the past few years suddenly dissipated. She quickly took out the ointment from her arms and applied ointment to Qing'er's palms. "Are these wounds caused by military training?"
Qing'er said slowly: "Some are, some are not."
Most of these injuries were caused when Nanyi was conquered.
Mianmian roughly guessed it, and while applying the ointment to him, she warned: "I personally prepared this ointment. It is very effective in removing scars. If you apply it every day, it should be effective in three months."
After she finished speaking, she closed the box of ointment and placed it in his hand.
Qing'er held the box tightly in her hands and smiled silly.
Mianmian saw him giggling and asked, "Brother Qing'er, what are you laughing at?"
Qing'er smiled and replied: "I'm laughing because the injury is so good."
Mianmian was confused when he heard what he said, "Fool, with such a terrifying scar, the hand should have almost been broken off when it was injured."
Qing'er raised her eyes and looked at her deeply, "Yes, it's true that my hand was almost severed, but the injury was still good. If it hadn't been for this injury, I'm afraid you would still stay far away from me, and you wouldn't be willing to give me any medicine."
Mianmian was suddenly startled and looked at him blankly with her eyes wide open.
She is no longer the little girl who knew nothing in the past.
Qing'er's words made her cheeks flush. She quickly lowered her head and said, "You are talking nonsense again. You are my brother. How can I stay away from you?"
Qing'er's original smile froze when she heard the word brother.
"Mianmian...I..."
At this time, someone suddenly came from outside the house and said, "Princess, someone from the Luo family is here."
Upon hearing this, Mianmian immediately became interested, stood up and said, "The Luo family is really brave enough to dare to come here to ask for someone."
She immediately walked out.
"Mianmian, wait a minute." Qing'er wanted to stop her.
But she had already strode to the front yard.
Aunt Zhou was calling the Third Prince and Zhouzhou to have dinner in the front yard. When she heard the sound outside the house, she had already arrived at the door.
Mrs. Luo got off the carriage with Matchmaker Li.
They came to Cheng'an County four years ago. They only knew that the Zhou family was a merchant who moved from the capital. They did not know that they were the third prince and the princess.
When Zhou Ruiyuan became the crown prince, their identities were mentioned in Cheng'an County. However, as time passed and Zhou Ruiyuan deliberately sent people to seal Yinzi's mouth, so no one among the new people nearby knew their true identities. .
Zhang Qiuhe and Wang Qiu have also remained tight-lipped.
Mrs. Luo came to the door in a swaggering manner and said arrogantly to Aunt Zhou: "I'm here to look for someone. My daughter-in-law came to your house."
Aunt Zhou was not polite, stopped them outside the door, and called the guards in the mansion.
The guards were all old men who had followed the Third Prince in the past. They were all tall and mighty, standing in a row, which shocked Mrs. Luo.
Matchmaker Li grabbed Mrs. Luo's hand and whispered: "Madam, I just told you that you can't mess with the Zhou family this time. You should leave quickly. I will find a little girl for you in the future."
Mrs. Luo immediately scolded: "That's not okay. My son likes her. He was making trouble in front of me before he came. If he doesn't find this little girl, he's afraid he will tear down the roof of the house."
Matchmaker Li rolled her eyes and said, "Your silly son is a fool to begin with. Just a few words of coaxing will be enough."
She wanted to reveal Zhouzhou's identity several times, but was stopped by Mrs. Luo.
Mrs. Luo really doted on her son too much and didn't care about that much.
She relied on the fact that she was an official from the capital and never took the people of Cheng'an County seriously.
"No, they have to hand over the girl."
Aunt Zhou said slowly: "The person you are looking for is my daughter."
Mrs. Luo looked her over, without showing much surprise, and said slowly: "That's just right. Our two families will decide on the marriage today, and I will have someone come to deliver the betrothal gift tomorrow."
Aunt Zhou sneered and said: "Let's not mention that my daughter has not yet reached the age of hair, she is still a little girl. You Luo family don't look in the mirror to see who you are. Wanting to marry my daughter is just wishful thinking!"
As she spoke, she continued in a higher tone: "Besides, I haven't come to you to settle the accounts for kidnapping my daughter, but you came to my door yourself!"
