Cultivating Immortality, Starts with Green Plum

Chapter 51 You have to keep it well
"Come, have some tea."

Back in Xiaochun Courtyard, Xu Ming poured a cup of tea for Zhu Cici.

"Thank you."

Zhu Cici sat obediently on the stone bench, picked up the tea that Xu Ming dropped for her, and drank it in small sips.

Those beautiful eyes would occasionally look up at Xu Ming.

There was a little tension in the girl's heart.

Zhu Cici didn't know why his heartbeat suddenly accelerated when he saw Xu Ming.

Xu Ming was clearly not like this when I saw him yesterday.

And Zhu Cici also discovered it.

Today's Xu Ming seems to be better looking than yesterday's Xu Ming.

This is a bit strange. It's only been one day. How could Xu Ming have changed?

"Cici, what's the matter with you coming to see me?"

Xu Ming noticed that the little girl was drinking tea and looking at him from time to time, as if there was something on his face.

"Yeah, there is."

Zhu Cici nodded seriously, put her legs together, and placed her hands on her legs. She looked calm and confident, but with a cute little nervousness.

"Miss Cici, just speak frankly."

Looking at Zhu Cici's serious look, Xu Ming also became serious.

However, Xu Ming really couldn't guess what important matter this little girl wanted to talk to him about.

"That." Zhu Cici's hands were between her thighs, caressing each other, looking very embarrassed, but in the end, Zhu Cici took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, "You saved my life, so I want to repay you."

"."

Listening to Zhu Cici's words, Xu Ming was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

"Ci Ci, you don't have to repay me for anything. I was not only protecting you at the time, I was also protecting myself. Besides, you are still young. Even if I want to repay a favor, it is not your turn as a little girl to do it."

Zhu Cici pouted: "I'm already nine years old, not young anymore, and you're even younger than me."

"." Xu Ming opened his mouth slightly, wanting to refute, but found that he really couldn't refute.

Because I am indeed one year younger than Zhu Cici.

"Well, you, don't be angry. When I said you were young, I didn't mean to scold you, yes, yes, yes." Seeing Xu Ming seemed silent, Zhu Cici organized his words, but didn't know how to explain for a moment.

"It's okay, I understand what you mean, I'm not angry." Xu Ming smiled.

And Xu Ming's smile made Zhu Cici's heart beat faster in her small chest.

Zhu Cici blushed slightly and slowly said, "As the sage said, a drop of water should be repaid with a spring. Although my mother said she would repay you, I think this is different. You saved my life, so I should repay you for your kindness."

"Okay." Seeing how persistent the little girl was, Xu Ming couldn't refuse. "Then how is Ci Ci going to repay me for this favor?"

In Xu Ming's opinion, the favor from this little girl should be nothing more than giving him some gift, or treating him to a meal, or taking him out to play.

After all, she is just a nine-year-old girl. Even if she is a natural literary talent and a little precocious, her thinking should still be within the scope of a child.

"I want to marry you! I will give you my body!"

Zhu Cici raised her head and looked into Xu Ming's eyes seriously.

Xu Ming: “???”

"Ci Ci, what did you just say?" Xu Ming wondered if he had heard it wrong.

"I've thought about this for a long time." Zhu Cici said seriously, "Since you saved me, my life is yours, and I am naturally yours too. Giving myself to you is the best way to repay you."

"No." Xu Ming rubbed his eyes, "Where did you hear this from?"

Zhu Cici tilted her head cutely: "I read it in a book. No matter if it's an ancient book or a novel written by a novelist, if a man saves a woman, the woman will pledge herself to him." "That depends on the situation. If she's good-looking, then she will pledge herself to him in this life. If she's not good-looking, then you'll have to work like a slave for him in the next life." Xu Ming said helplessly.

Listening to Xu Ming's words, Zhu Cici's big, watery eyes moved slightly, and then she looked at Xu Ming seriously for a few times: "But I think you are also very good-looking."

"That's not the problem." Xu Ming didn't know how to deal with this little girl for a moment.

Xu Ming had never thought that in his two lifetimes, he would be proposed to by a nine-year-old little girl, even though he was only eight years old now.

"What's the problem?"

Zhu Cici was puzzled.

"Don't worry, Xu Ming, I have already thought about it.

When we get married, I will definitely be a good wife. I want to have two children, but you can have more if you want. I will try my best.

I can also live in Wu State in the future.

If our parents don't agree with us being together, we will elope.

I will save more money over the years so that it will be convenient for us to elope in the future."

"."Xu Ming was stunned.

So you have thought about it so carefully?

"Ci Ci, I'm sorry. Actually, actually..." Xu Ming organized his words in his mind, "Actually, I already have a girl I like."

Zhu Cici clenched her hands slightly on her thighs, and pursed her tender lips slightly: "Is it the girl named Qingwan?"

"Ah? Well, yes." Xu Ming didn't know how she mentioned Qingwan, but he used Qingwan as an excuse.

"It's okay. It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines." Zhu Cici shook his head. "As the eldest wife, I won't object to you marrying other girls. I will also get along well with Qingwan and won't make things difficult for you."

"Fuck" Xu Ming couldn't help but curse in his heart, what kind of fairy girl is this.

"Is this not possible?" Zhu Cici looked at Xu Ming's silence. Her almond-shaped eyes were already misty and crystal tears kept dripping from the corners of the girl's eyes.

"You, please don't cry first." Since he was a child, Xu Ming was most afraid of girls crying. "Okay, okay, I promise you, isn't it enough to promise you?"

"Really?" Zhu Cici wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sniffed.

"real."

Xu Ming nodded. It was just a joke among children and he would forget it after a few years.

In my previous life, I said I wanted to marry the older sister next door.

"But I have one condition." Xu Ming added, "That is, you can't tell anyone else about this, otherwise it will be difficult for us to elope."

"Yeah." Zhu Cici affirmed.

"Secondly, if you don't like me anymore in the future, then our agreement will be invalid and you don't have to marry me."

"I won't change my mind!"

"Okay." Xu Ming smiled, "That's it."

"Then Xu Ming, let's sign a marriage contract." Zhu Cici said expectantly.

"Row."

Xu Ming brought Zhu Cici into his room. Zhu Cici sat at the desk, carefully writing a marriage contract like a child playing house.

"One for each person, please keep it well."

After writing and blowing dry, Zhu Cici carefully handed a marriage contract to Xu Ming.

"When you and I grow up, you will marry me."

"Okay." Xu Ming put away the "engagement contract" that had no binding force or format. "When you grow up, I will marry you."
