Chapter 51

Early the next morning, Princess Duan took Zhuzhu into the car.

It was too early, Zhuzhu didn't get enough sleep, and she was dozed off by Princess Duan all the way.

When they arrived at the place, Sheng Minglin said directly to Princess Duan: "Mother, my son is reading in the carriage, waiting for mother and Zhuzhu to come back."

Princess Duan nodded, very satisfied with his knowledge, and said to the seventh prince: "Qi Lang, don't run around, just wait at the foot of the mountain."

The seventh prince responded, and Princess Duan personally carried Zhuzhu and walked up the mountain.

Called a mountain, it was just a small slope. As I climbed up, I saw a large fenced yard, where a thin old woman was bending down to pick vegetables from the ground.

Princess Duan hurriedly shook her daughter again, and waited until she regained her energy before taking a step forward and greeting her with a smile: "Sister Liu."

A smile appeared on the old woman's face, and she took two steps towards her, "An Ning is here, and Zhuzhu is here too."

The old woman smiled very kindly, but her face was full of ridges and age spots, and her mouth was toothless. Zhuzhu was very afraid of her, and her voice was weak. She said hello in a soft voice: "Godmother."

The old woman smiled and nodded.

Generally, a person who recognizes a godmother is someone who has two sons and daughters living under the same roof for four generations, or someone who is from a Buddhist or Taoist family. However, Zhuzhu was in a critical situation at that time, and Princess Duan wanted to find someone who would be determined. Finally, she recognized a godmother. "Ren Rui".

In the Dasheng Dynasty, all elderly people over the age of 60 were exempted from all taxes and servitude. After the age of 80, the court also provided money and food. After the age of [-], not only money and food were given, but also servants. Such old people were called "Ren Rui".

This person, Rui, survived many disasters throughout his life. Although he was never married and had no children, he lived to be over a hundred years old. He was truly blessed with a long life.

Her real name was Liu Xiaocao. After she turned [-], Emperor Mingxi personally gave her the name Changshou, so people near and far called her Changshou Po. Many people wanted to recognize her as their godmother.

But when people get old, they will always have some nagging thoughts, and so does this old woman. When someone comes to ask for help, she rubs her head and always says it's inappropriate. No one dares to force Rui, a living person raised by the imperial court, to do something like this.

So in the end, I only recognized three godfathers, and Zhuzhu was one of them.

The two children are older, the younger one is over 12 years old, and Zhuzhu is the youngest. When they met, Changshou Po was already [-] years old. Now three years later, the old man still looks energetic. He is so strong that he can even pick vegetables and cook for himself.

Princess Duan asked her servants to bring the gifts in, and then asked them to wait outside. She took Zhuzhu into the main room and sat down to talk to the old man.

Because she didn't see Master Zibai last time, Princess Duan always felt uneasy, so she came a little early today, just to enjoy the blessing of the longevity woman.

The old woman liked Zhuzhu very much. As soon as she sat down, she hugged her and rubbed her from head to toe.

The old man's hands were dry and wrinkled, and his nails were long and cold. Zhuzhu was most afraid of being touched by her, but while the princess was willing to rely on her in other matters, she absolutely refused to do so in this matter, so Tuanzi didn't dare to make a fuss. Like a little rabbit with its ears held up, it cowered in the old man's arms, letting her rub her from head to toe, pinching her arms and legs countless times, and from time to time, she would lower her face and kiss her with her dry mouth. On the cheek, because there are no teeth, a kiss would feel like being wrapped in a fish's mouth.

Zhuzhu was so scared that her big eyes were filled with tears.

Princess Duan couldn't bear to watch and kept interrupting.

The longevity woman was neither deaf nor confused, and she talked to her with a smile.

It wasn't until 10 o'clock that Changshou Po came over with the copper coins, then she came over, slowly untied the red rope around Zhuzhu's neck, put the money on a string for her, tied the red rope tightly, and said with a smile: "alright!"

As soon as Zhuzhu heard this, she spread her legs and ran out of the house.

Princess Duan said quickly: "Zhuzhu is naughty, sister, don't be offended."

Changshou Po said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, I like such a smart girl... An Ning," she called Princess Duan by her maiden name: "Did this child suffer some disaster recently..." Princess Duan said Shocked, her eyes widened, and she was about to say how do you know, when she saw her mouth tightening: "It seems like it happened more than once."

"Yes!" Princess Duan said, "That's right, I'm very worried! I even went to Baoguo Temple to burn incense two days ago!"

"There's no need to go to such trouble," Changshou Po said slowly, "This child is blessed too much and has a weak life, so she can't bear it. Just ask her to come to my place and stay with me for three months, and nothing will happen to her!"

Princess Duan hesitated.

Outside, Zhuzhu ran out of the yard in one breath, only to find that her mother had not come out.

I didn't dare to go back to find my mother, so I went out by myself, the firewood door was still closed.

Zhuzhu stood there, walking here and there, her mouth flattening because of the rare occasion, she wanted to cry but didn't dare to cry.

At this moment, I suddenly heard the voice of the Seventh Prince not far away: "No need to follow! I'll just sit here!"

Zhuzhu perked up and ran back as fast as she could. Her little face almost squeezed into the fence, and she saw the Seventh Prince sitting on a stone not far away.

Zhuzhu was overjoyed and shouted softly: "Qi Guo Guo! Qi Guo Guo!"

He called several times and changed several gaps in the fence, but the seventh prince didn't hear him. He had his back crossed and didn't know what he was doing.

Zhuzhu didn't dare to shout loudly for fear of being heard by the old woman, and she was so anxious that she almost burst into tears. She went from one fence to another, and then accidentally squeezed her little head out.

Zhuzhu was stunned. She wanted to go back, but couldn't. She squeezed out again, but couldn't. She couldn't help but shout louder: "Qi Guo Guo!"

The seventh prince was startled and turned around. Zhuzhu stretched out her short hand towards him in vain: "Qi Guo Guo, help."

The seventh prince obviously hesitated for a moment, and Zhuzhu's little hands weakly pushed the branch: "Zhuzhu can't breathe, Zhuzhu is going to die, wuwu, Zhuzhu doesn't want to die..."

The seventh prince was so excited that he rushed forward like flying, then inserted his hands into the fence, grabbed her under the armpits, and pulled her out forcefully.

Zhuzhu screamed loudly and felt pain everywhere in her body. Tears finally fell down: "Qi Guo Guo, Zhu Zhu hurts."

She felt wronged by Bala and wanted to hug his neck.

As for the seventh prince, his hands were faster than his brain. After pulling her out in one go, he was stunned.

He couldn't bring himself to kill her, but now that she was seeking death, he still wanted to save her?This is the second time! !

The Seventh Prince immediately threw her to the ground. Zhuzhu was stunned and looked up at him with tears on her face: "Qi Guo Guo?"

"Don't call me!" The seventh prince gave himself a hard blow and gritted his teeth: "Don't call me, ignore me, don't follow me! Come here again and I'll beat you to death!" He waved his hand and walked away, striding like lightning.

Zhuzhu was shocked.

When she came back to her senses, she was furious and shouted at her back: "You are the big bad guy! Zhuzhu will never be with you again, never be with you again!!"

She got up angrily and walked in the opposite direction with her short legs, crying as she walked.

As I was walking, my foot suddenly slipped, and I missed my foot and rolled down.
