Chapter 129 Stick to Her

Chu He, who became famous in one battle, has now become the most popular person in Yajuli.

Especially... she is very popular among the maids who are close to her.

In the past, everyone kept their distance from this handsome but serious man. After all, they all served others, so who had the time to warm up an iceberg?

But now, things are very different!

He's a serious man because he's incredibly talented! His archery skills are so impressive that even the Right Governor-General was impressed. I heard he even wants to enlist.

Who knows, one day he might become very successful.

So, these days, the road outside Chu He's door was particularly bumpy. Every now and then, a maid would fall, then raise her profile, which she considered the most beautiful, and say with tears in her eyes, "Guardian Chu, can you help me up?"

Chu He, who never tires of it: "..."

He simply hid in Xu Rongrong's yard.

Xu Rongrong teased him, "You're hiding out here, but you've earned me so many cold stares for nothing."

Chu He didn't know how to answer.

The development of the matter was indeed beyond his expectations. He originally disdained the stigma that the Right Governor had put on him, and he also did not want to implicate her.

But now, I have been involved in these messy peach blossoms for no reason.

Those maids looked so weak and frail, too artificial. Not to mention that he, who had two lifetimes of experience, looked down on them. Even if they were from his previous life, they would not be able to shake him in the slightest.

After all, in his eyes, the woman who remained stubborn in the face of adversity would truly make him feel pity. Just like...

Xu Rongrong raised her hand and waved it in front of his eyes twice: "Why are you looking at me? It's not me who caused you to fall into this state."

Chu He hurriedly withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to fiddle with the bow and arrow in his hand.

Xu Rongrong saw it and said: "This bow is too old. I will make you a new one after returning to the capital, so that it will be worthy of your status."

Chu He raised his head and said, "Miss, aren't you surprised that I can shoot arrows?"

"..." Xu Rongrong was stunned, but soon smiled and said, "Your knife throwing skills were so good earlier, I think it is inherited from the archery."

As he finished speaking, he thought to himself, this is a close call. I hope Chu He won't see through me.

But for Yu Chuhe, he already knew it clearly.

But... he also cherished the opportunity that Xu Rongrong allowed him to stay by her side. If he had the chance, he really wanted to ask her:

Why did you forgive yourself like this?

But he hoped that such an opportunity would never come.

So he nodded: "That's what the young lady said."

Someone outside the courtyard called out, "Is the maidservant of Lady Ping'an here? A woman is looking for you outside the elegant residence."

Woman? Xu Rongrong paused for a moment before responding, "I'll be right there."

After saying that, she was about to go out, and Chu He followed closely behind her.

Xu Rongrong smiled and said, "It must be Luo Xiao who came to look for me. You are very popular now, so don't show off."

Chu He looked at her: "I'm worried."

Xu Rongrong: "..."

……

As expected, her prediction was correct. Outside the elegant residence, beside the green pines, Luo Xiao was pacing back and forth with a food box in her hand. Chu He saw this and went to the intersection to guard it.

Xu Rongrong quickly stepped forward and asked, "Why are you here?"

Luo Xiao smiled and handed over the food box in her hand: "You haven't come back to my place for a while. I wonder how the county lady and Miss Wen Yao are doing. I found an excuse to come and see."

"We are fine here." Xu Rongrong took the lunch box.

"The Marquis's injuries have fully healed. Doctor Shu just said that starting tomorrow, the Marquis will no longer need to take medicine." Luo Xiao took the opportunity to say, "The previous internal injuries have also been eradicated and will not recur in the future."

Xu Rongrong lowered her head, kicked the stones under her feet, and did not comment.

Seeing her like this, Luo Xiao smiled.

The fact that the county lady was willing to listen to her was enough to show that she was not without affection for the marquis.

"I came here today because I want to trouble the county lady with something else." Luo Xiao continued.

Xu Rongrong looked up when she heard this: "What do you need help with?"

"I believe that once the Marquis recovers, the county lady will set off to return to the capital...I wonder if she can take Yuqi and me with her?"

"You...you still want to leave Yuzhou City?" Xu Rongrong was a little surprised.

Indeed, she met Luo Xiaoshi in Puyang County, not far from the capital. At that time, she was anxious to come to Jiangnan to deal with the impending epidemic, and Luo Yuqi was seriously ill and could not leave Shu Qing, so the mother and daughter of the Luo family accompanied her back to Yuzhou City.

But at that time, Yuzhou City was in ruins, there were many patients, and everyone was in danger.

But now, the threat of the epidemic has been eliminated, and the people have begun to rebuild their homes. Even the Luo family courtyard has become lush and green because of the popularity of the people. Are they willing to leave their hometown again at this time?

She continued, "This is your hometown after all, and the capital isn't where you're used to. If you go there, even with the help of relatives and friends, you'll have to start all over again."

Luo Xiao nodded. "I understand your concerns, but... starting over isn't such a bad thing. Yuzhou is our homeland, but when my husband was alive, we had no one to rely on. Now that he's gone, staying here is no different from moving to a completely new environment."

"Besides, Yuqi is grown up now. I hope she can see more of the world instead of being trapped here like a frog in a well."

"I will entrust the mansion in Yuzhou City to a broker to rent it out. If the capital city is really not suitable for us, we will not be left without a place to stay."

Seeing that she spoke carefully and thoughtfully, Xu Rongrong stopped trying to persuade her. She replied, "Since you have thought it through, then come with us to the capital. We will have someone to take care of you on the way."

……

Back in the main courtyard, Xu Rongrong and Wen Yao were eating the snacks sent by Luo Xiao, while Xu Rongrong told Wen Yao about the other party's plan.

Wen Yao said, "It's rare that the lady of the Luo family is willing to leave her hometown for her daughter."

Xu Rongrong nodded. Parents are naturally willing to give everything for their children.

If my mother were still alive, no matter in the past life or this life, I would always have someone to rely on.

now……

You can only rely on yourself.

Wen Yao asked, "When do you plan to return to Beijing, Miss?"

Xu Rongrong looked at the already faded scar on Wen Yao's neck and thought for a moment: "Let's wait another five days. We have to give Luo Xiaoshi enough time to settle down."

"Miss, do you want to give Mrs. Luo some time, or do you want to wait for the Marquis to fully recover?" Wen Yao joked.

Xu Rongrong rolled her eyes at her. "Who said we were going back to the capital with him? With Chu He here, are you still afraid someone will kidnap you again?" Wen Yao covered her mouth with her hands and smiled. "Yes, yes, Miss doesn't have to go back to the capital with the Marquis, but the Marquis will definitely follow you! I'm a timid servant, and how can one guard like Chu compare to the reassurance of so many experts around the Marquis?"
