  Early morning warm sunshine, Ding Rou quietly got up from the bed, not wanting to disturb her mother sleeping beside her. Ding Rou remembered that her mothers surname was Liu, she was kidnapped at the age of three and served as a maid for the young lady of the Liu family at the age of five, now she is the mistress of the Ding family. Ding Rou quietly got out of bed, put on her long skirt, in the countryside, clothes were not too complicated to wear. She tidied up her hair, casually tied a ponytail, as she didnt know how to do complex hairstyles. After finishing, Ding Rou walked back to the bed and covered her mother with the quilt again.

  She had not closed her eyes for several days to take care of her sick daughter, and she wanted to take good care of herself. From the sleeping posture, Lius body was curled up, and Ding Rou slept in her arms last night. When Ding Rou walked out after opening the door, Liu opened her eyes, rubbed her cheek against the quilt, and knew that her daughter had forgiven her and was filial. Liu got up with her clothes on, stretched her arm to open the cabinet next to her, took out a needlework basket, and inside were beautifully arranged jewelry, embroidered silk handkerchiefs, and pouches. For several days, Liu hadnt done any needlework to take care of her daughter. Soon, Wang Ruijia would come to pick up the pouches, and Liu was going to sell them for some copper coins to support her daughter.

  Rushing to the Zhuangzis daughter, the Dingfu will not ask about it. The housekeeper of the Zhuangzi has a pair of powerful eyes, and it is common for them to flatter and bully others. If they hadnt been slandering, Ting Rou wouldnt have fallen ill so severely. Liu Shi didnt read books and couldnt recognize characters, she was quite surprised by her daughters changes before and after, thinking that her daughter had gone through life and death and opened up.

  Ding Ruo feared that Liu Shi would think too much and stir up more trouble, so she took the opportunity to tell Liu Shi while they were sleeping together. She originally had three souls and seven spirits captured by a little ghost, but because Liu Shi had accumulated virtue in her previous life and had once been kind to the ghostly messenger, the little ghost said that it was afraid Ding Ruo would die and Liu Shi would have no one to take care of her, so it spared Ding Ruos soul. If Ding Ruo did not treat Liu Shi well, she would be taken away again. Upon hearing this, Liu Shi had no more doubts. It was because of the good deeds and virtues accumulated in her previous life that she had a daughter like Ding Ruo. The kind-hearted Liu Shi was very satisfied.

  Lius family was busy with needlework, calculating that after selling these, they could get one or two silver coins to add a pair of earrings for Ding Rou. In a few days, it would be Ding Rous birthday, and her daughter would be eleven years old. High-quality update

  "Ah." Mrs. Liu pricked her finger with the needle, and a drop of blood appeared. Luckily it didnt stain the silk handkerchief. Mrs. Liu dared not to be distracted again and focused on sewing.

  Ding Ruo walked out of the bedroom and surveyed the courtyard based on her memory. It seemed that the lady of the house had given up on Ding Ruo. The villa was desolate, and it would be more accurate to call it a few small courtyards surrounded by walls rather than a villa. The courtyard where Ding Ruo lived was not large, with only one bright room and two dark ones. The kitchen was set aside, and except for the clean stone road surface in the courtyard, all other places were overgrown with weeds. The courtyard wall was dilapidated and mottled, and there was a gap on the east side of the wall, where the grass at the foot of the wall was as high as her knees. Ding Ruo thoroughly understood how far she and her mother had fallen out of favor.

  Ding Ruo remembered that each young lady in the Ding Mansion had a personal maid, and the four legitimate daughters had big maids. In the past, Ding Ruo was good at pleasing her stepmother, and the big maids were one more than those of the illegitimate daughters, but they wouldnt surpass the legitimate daughters. Those three big maids didnt seem to have followed her, and in the past, Ding Ruo had mixed with people who were quite inferior, without ability or talent, yet she still wanted to be superior to other illegitimate daughters, and even dared to compete with the legitimate daughter for favor. No wonder she ended up like this now, she never understood the principle of "the bird that sticks its head out gets shot".

  Ding Rou took a deep breath, and in this regard, ancient times were indeed better - the air was fresh, and the blue sky seemed to have been washed clean, sparkling with clarity. However, as soon as she thought about living in ancient times, Ding Rous head began to ache. She didnt even want to mention food, clothing, and daily necessities, let alone luxurious attire and fine cuisine, which were now out of reach. Ding Rou wasnt unfamiliar with hardship, nor was she unaccustomed to it - as long as she put her mind to it, she wouldnt struggle to make a living. But how would she deal with the relatives who came to visit every month? And what about personal hygiene? Even someone as cleanliness-obsessed as Ding Rou couldnt avoid taking baths. She looked up at the sky and sighed - ancient times werent all good after all.

  Gulu, Ting Ruo touched her belly, last night she was comforting Liu Shi. Ting Ruo is allergic to the rich and oily chicken soup, and under Liu Shis watery gaze, she could only drink it in. In fact, she would rather eat mantou, than have a mouthful of greasy chicken soup. Ting Ruo went to the kitchen, Liu Shis cooking skills are not great, although she is a servant girl, she has always been favored by her master and mistress, and wont do any heavy work in the kitchen. Thats why people say that even the servant girls from large families can compare to young ladies from small households.

  Ding Ruo didnt expect the mother-in-law from the Zhuangzi to serve her meals, so she decided to take matters into her own hands. Before she even reached the kitchen, thick smoke billowed out of the window gap, and Ding Ruo heard a faint coughing sound, "Save me, save me."

  Ding Ruo didnt rush in, but instead observed the situation carefully. She wasnt going to risk her own life to save others, not after barely surviving once before. Who knows if heaven would play another trick on her and throw her into the ancient beastman world again? Ding Ruo couldnt take that kind of risk. It was better to stay in relatively civilized ancient times. Seeing thick smoke but no flames, Ding Ruo judged that even if there was a fire, it shouldnt be too big. She carefully felt the wooden kitchen door and found it wasnt hot, proving that the fire hadnt spread yet.

  Ding Rou took a glance around, found a large water vat, and since it had rained a few days ago, the vat was half full of water. She took out a handkerchief from her waist, wet it with water, clenched it in her hand, then opened the kitchen window. Thick smoke poured out, Ding Rou coughed twice, the thick smoke stung her eyes, she pushed open the kitchen door, covering her mouth with the handkerchief. With the windows and doors all open, the thick smoke gradually dispersed. Ding Rou carefully distinguished a figure crouching on the ground, "Save me, save me."

  The dry grass burning under the stove jumped out of the fire pit, and if it ignited the nearby haystacks, it would be even more dangerous. Ding Rou turned around to fetch a basin of water from the water tank, then went in to pour it on the ignited dry grass. The kitchen also had a water tank, and Ding Rou didnt care how much water was in the tank, directly throwing the copper basin into the water tank. Sima Guang smashed the tank and reappeared in the world, and the water tank really burst open, with clear water flowing out, wetting the dry grass and firewood, eliminating the danger.

  Its easy to say, but Ting Rou was busy for a while before finally putting out the fire. Wiping the sweat from her forehead, she walked over to the person on the ground and squatted down: "Are you okay?"

  No wonder she couldnt run out, the cabinet fell and pressed her legs just right,"Its okay, its okay, thank you......thank you......"

  That person looked up and saw it was Ding Rou, his eyes widened in disbelief, his eyes were red, "Six... Miss Six?"

  Ding Rou looked clearly at her, she was only about ten years old, her skin tone couldnt be seen, all covered with dust and smoke, "What? Cant it be me?"

  "Sixth Miss, I dare not, I dare not."

  The little girl shrank back, seemingly very afraid of Ding Ruo, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Sixth Miss, for saving my life."

  Ding Ruos mind had memories, and the little girl in front of her had a very awkward name - Cui Hua. She was the only maid who was willing to follow Ding Ruo to the Zhuangzi, and at the main house of the Ding family, Ding Ruo didnt even notice her. Cui Hua was just a small maid who did chores like fetching water and sweeping the floor, which is why she had such a name. After arriving at the Zhuangzi, Ding Ruos temperament changed greatly, and she either beat or scolded Cui Hua. It made sense, considering that Ding Ruo even dared to scold her own birth mother, Liu Shi. Cui Huas days wouldnt be easy.

  Ding Ruo pushed open the cabinet, and helped Cui Hua up. She was a bit puzzled as to why Cui Hua wanted to come to the Zhuangzi with her. It was very ordinary for a maid like Cui Hua to be sent to sweep the floor, even if Ding Ruo was being sent to the Zhuangzi, Cui Hua could have been sent elsewhere to do chores. Why would she think of following Ding Ruo? She had no prospects of being promoted to become a senior maid, and besides, Ding Ruo wasnt very good to her. It wasnt that Ding Ruo was narrow-minded, but rather that she was accustomed to making everything clear, especially when it came to the people around her.

  The only one who didnt understand was Ding Min, the heaviest blow in her previous life. Meng Haoran is not good, but if Ding Min had done the right thing, would she have had an affair with him? Ding Rou should be more careful in this unfamiliar ancient era, and Cuihua needs to ask clearly.

  Ding Ruo had just entered the kitchen door when Lius mother rushed over like a flying arrow, without saying a word, she directly slapped Ding Ruo on the shoulder, then with tears in her eyes, she hugged Ding Ruo tightly, "......If something happens, what can I do? If another soul-stirring ghost messenger comes again, I wont recognize him......"

  Ding Rou closed her eyes, silently let out a sigh, and wrapped her arms around Liu Shis waist.
