Traveling through time and space to become a concubine's daughter, leading the whole village to

The servant trotted to the backyard and saw Xu Miao, saying to her, "Miss Xu, the Duke asked you to go to the study in the front yard. He said a friend of the Duke wants to see you."

After saying this, the servant hurried back to the front yard.

Xu Miao was busy making new shoes for Zhou Jiyuan in the backyard with Yang Po and others.

Zhou Jiyuan's feet have been growing very fast recently. After wearing his new shoes for only a few days, he started complaining that they were too tight and wanted to buy new ones.

Mrs. Yang said that this was a sign that the young master was about to grow taller. Before the second young master grew taller, his feet also grew first, and he kept asking for new shoes every day.

Hearing that Zhou Chenli was looking for her, Xu Miao hurriedly put down the work in her hands, said something to Mrs. Yang, and rushed to the front yard.

Xu Miao thought as she walked, but after thinking carefully for a long time, she still couldn't figure out who wanted to see her.

She and the Duke have no common friends; they are not from the same class.

Xu Miao arrived at the door of the study in the front yard and nervously reached out and knocked on the door.

"Come in," a young man's voice came from the study, which made Xu Miao even more confused. She didn't seem to know the man.

When Xu Miao pushed the door open and entered the room, he saw a man in his twenties sitting behind the desk, holding a teacup in his hand and staring at the door.

The man had dark hair tied up high on his head, tan skin, and a sturdy, well-built body. He wore a black robe and had a handsome face, sharp eyebrows, and bright eyes. He looked very righteous.

Xu Miao stood at the door, not knowing how to address the man properly. He asked awkwardly, "Excuse me, are you looking for me?"

Zhou Jicheng had been carefully examining Xu Miao since she entered the room. This was the first time he had seen Xu Miao like this.

The girl was wearing a light purple dress, she was tall and slender, she stood there gracefully, although her skin was slightly dark, it could not hide her beautiful appearance.

He stood at the door with confidence, and at first glance he exuded a sense of vigor.

Zhou Jicheng stood up and walked to Xu Miao, whispering, "I am the Sixth Prince Zhou Jicheng. Do you still recognize me?"

When Xu Miao heard the word "Sixth Prince", he was stunned.

Isn't this a typical bourgeois rich second generation? Where could she know him?

She quickly raised her head and looked at Zhou Jicheng, who was a head taller than her, and asked, "Um, Sixth Prince, do I need to kneel down and kowtow to you?"

Xu Miao really hated this ritual of kneeling. When he first entered the Duke of Dingguo's mansion, he knelt several times before Zhou Chenli and his wife.

After getting to know each other, Xu Miao found that he hadn't knelt down or kowtowed to anyone for a long time.

When Zhou Jicheng heard Xu Miao ask him this, he suddenly burst out laughing: "No, no, it seems you really don't remember me."

Xu Miao suddenly realized, "I remember you sent me a gift when Yuan and I got married."

Xu Miao recalled that when she first entered the Duke's Mansion, the Sixth Prince presented A Yuan with a gift on behalf of the Emperor. She even kowtowed to him behind his wife to express her gratitude.

At that time, she curiously glanced at Zhou Jicheng secretly, but she was scared and didn't dare to look closely.

Zhou Jicheng smiled even more after hearing this: "It wasn't when A Yuan got married. I saw you before that."

"Do you still remember when you crawled out of the dog hole in the backyard of the Xu Mansion, squatted at the foot of the wall, holding a little puppy in your arms and crying?"

"Later, you gave me five black life-saving pills and said you wanted to give two of them to the puppy."

Zhou Jicheng smiled as he helped Xu Miao recall the scene of their first meeting.

When Xu Miao heard this, he stared at the tall and handsome Zhou Jicheng in front of him with wide eyes and exclaimed, "Who is the little brother who took the puppy away for me?"

Zhou Jicheng looked at Xu Miao with a smile in his eyes: "It's me, I remember now."

Of course Xu Miao remembered this incident.

The little puppy crawled into the Xu Mansion through the dog hole in the backyard and was seen by Xu Miao.

The puppy must have just opened its eyes at that time, whimpering and looking around for its mother. It turned to Xu Miao's feet and began to paw at Xu Miao with its little paws.

Xu Miao leaned over and picked it up. The dog hummed and nudged into Xu Miao's arms, shivering in Xu Miao's arms.

Xu Miao was so touched by the little puppy that she brought it to the house where she and her mother lived.

Xu Miao saved some food from his own rations for the puppy. At that time, Xu Miao and his mother were not having a good time. The little food they got every day was barely enough to keep them from starving to death.

She used her blood to mix the food every day and fed it to the puppy for more than a month. Xu Miao raised the puppy until it was plump and round, and it followed Xu Miao around like a little tail all day long.

Later, Xu Mingzhu went to the backyard and saw the puppy. She reported it to Zhao and insisted on beating the puppy to death.

Xu Miao had no choice but to crawl out of the Xu Mansion through the dog hole, hoping to meet a kind person who could adopt the puppy.

Those five pills were the first time Xu Miao took the initiative to give someone something with her blood in it.

Mainly because she had nothing and was worried that no one would be willing to adopt the puppy, she made up her mind and made five large pills as a thank you gift.

With the topic of puppies, Xu Miao and Zhou Jicheng didn't feel so unfamiliar anymore, and the two of them sat at the desk and started talking.

"Later, I was asked to bring the puppy back to the palace. I even secretly went to your backyard to see you twice."

Zhou Jicheng said with a smile.

When Xu Miao heard that Zhou Jicheng had secretly looked at her twice, she was surprised and asked, "Why did you look at me twice? How come I didn't know?"

"I secretly climbed up the wall in your backyard and watched you."

Not long after Zhou Jicheng held the puppy in his arms, the accompanying guards found him. Zhou Jicheng asked the guards to find out who lived in the mansion.

Later, the guard returned and reported, "Sixth Prince, that mansion is the home of Master Xu Jingyi. Master Xu was recently transferred to the capital from out of town and has lived in that mansion for about a year."

"The girl who gave you the puppy is Xu Miao, the concubine of Lord Xu. She lives with her mother in a house in the corner of the backyard of the Xu Mansion."

Later, Zhou Jicheng secretly climbed over the wall of Xu's mansion at night.

The first time I saw Xu Mingzhu was in Xu Miao's room, asking Xu Miao for a puppy.

The second time I went to see Xu Miao, he was holding a black pen and drawing something in the dim candlelight in the room.

At that time, there were very few guards in the backyard of the Xu Mansion. The few guards who were there were all guarding Zhao's yard.

"Later, my father sent me to the Northern Frontier. I was away for many years. I also brought the puppy to the Northern Frontier."

"He has grown into a majestic black dog. I call him Dahei. In fact, he and you are my saviors."

"I was separated from my team on a battlefield. It was Dahei who brought his brothers to find me. I ate all the five black pills you gave me. I didn't leave any for Dahei."

At this point, Zhou Jicheng looked at Xu Miao with a guilty look, feeling quite sorry for him. He had only given him a small amount of food as a thank you gift, and he had eaten it all.

"Don't worry, Xu Miao. Dahei never got sick once in Northern Xinjiang. He lived a more comfortable life than my father, with many wives and concubines."

"If you see it in northern Xinjiang, you can become a great grandmother."

Zhou Jicheng thought Xu Miao was the mother of the big black dog, which had given birth to a large group of puppies in the northern border.

Xu Miao was overjoyed after hearing this. How could he compare his own father to a dog, especially when the Sixth Prince's father was the Emperor.
