Chapter Twelve Hidden Danger

  ♂?,,

  After washing up, Ding Rou poured out the foot-washing water and happened to see that there was a faint candlelight in Lian Xins room. Ding Rou knocked on the window, "Lian Xin is not allowed to stay up late, go to sleep quickly."

  "Understood, Sixth Miss." Ting Ruo didnt head back to her own room until the candle had gone out. As she stepped across the threshold, she pulled her foot back and said: "Lan Xin, Im telling you, no staying up late cutting paper, if youre not spirited tomorrow, dont come crying to me, do you understand about being efficient?"

  Lan Xin secretly stuck out her tongue, Sixth Miss became cleverer, Lan Xin put down the plan to cut paper under the moonlight, "Slave remembers." Crawled onto the bed, able to get Sixth Misss concern, Lan Xin who had been a slave and servant for a long time was tearfully grateful, willing to die for Sixth Miss.

  Ding Ruo returned to the house, and tomorrow she would have to tell Lan Xin about the harm of staying up late. The body is the capital, and silver can be earned at any time, but a ruined body cannot be bought with silver. When she saw a smile on Liu Shis lips as she embroidered by the candlelight, Ding Ruo felt helpless. It seemed that Liu Shi also needed to be educated. Ding Ruo took the needle and thread from Liu Shis hand in an overbearing manner and casually threw them into the needlework basket.

  Mrs. Liu looked at a loss, "Has your mother gotten angry?" Although her daughter did not object to her selling embroidery, Ding Ruo climbed onto the bed. When it came to bad people, she dared to scold them back, but Mrs. Liu was a kind-hearted mother, and Ding Ruo felt very helpless. She had to change her approach and tell her that it would harm her body. However, with Mrs. Lius temperament, she wouldnt listen. Ding Ruo said in a stifled tone: "Mother is working so hard, making me feel useless. If mother ruins her health, who will I rely on in the future?"

  Ding Ruos nose was slightly sour, and it would be best to squeeze out a few tears, but Ding Ruo hadnt cried since she understood things. She had been through great winds and waves, how could she pretend to cry? In order to achieve the desired effect, Ding Ruo, who wouldnt shed tears, was turned over, and Liu Shi felt extremely guilty and heartbroken. From behind, she hugged her daughter and promised: "Mother will endure the embroidery, Xiao Ruo is fine, Mother will accompany Xiao Ruo."

  It turns out that being occasionally soft and weak can also achieve the goal, in the past, Ding Rou would never have used this method. In Lius arms, Ding Rou reflected, was she lacking femininity before? Was she too strong?

  "Uh-huh."

  Ding Ruos mind stirred, and she took the opportunity to tell Liu Shi that she was no longer the same as before. From time to time, strange thoughts would pop up in her mind, and as someone close to Liu Shi, he would surely notice the change if he wasnt foolish. Later, when Liu Shi asked a Taoist priest or Buddhist monk to exorcise ghosts, Ding Ruo wouldnt believe it, but Liu Shi really did it, which hurt her feelings. When Ding Ruo was clear-headed, she attributed some changes to the ghosts influence, thinking that since ancient people believed in spirits and ghosts, they would see many legendary figures when their souls left their bodies. She thought it was fitting to push the blame onto them, and even if she died, she could still come back to life.

  Language is very particular, Ding Rou raised her head and her eyes were filled with hesitation and fear, this performance is absolutely Oscar-winning level. Liu Xi hugged her daughter tightly, "Xiao Rou, do you have something to tell Mom?"

  "Will you despise me?"

  "Xiao Rou doesnt mind that Mother cant give her the status of a legitimate child, Mother...Mother feels sorry for Xiao Rou." Liu Shi was about to cry again, but Ding Rou suppressed her previous weakness and hesitation, saying firmly: "Dont cry, Mother, dont cry anymore."

  Although Lius crying was quite good-looking, Liu was only twenty-five or six years old and could be promoted to aunt by Ding Rou. Her appearance and facial features were not bad, but Ding Rou didnt like to see women cry. Obviously feeling Lius body stiffen, Ding Rou turned around and hugged Liu, and for her, Ding Rou could only softly comfort, "Mother, I dont mean to blame you, whats wrong with the concubine? Were doing well now."

  "If I cant go back to the Dings house, how can I get married?" If having a thick skin could make Madam turn her heart around and take Ding Yu back, Liu Shi would have done it already. "Ill say it again, the mother-in-law from the Zhuangzi village seems rough and overbearing, but she is actually the niece of Li Mama, who is the most capable person by Madams side. Why not pull her to talk to Li Mama? If Li Mama is willing to say a word in front of Madam, it will be enough to make Madam remember Xiao Yu. The Li Mama from Zhuangzi village is greedy for money, Ill go find her after selling the paper cutouts."

  "No, dont."

  Ding Ruo gave up her original plan, the most important thing was to get rid of the idea of going back to the Ding Mansion. It wasnt that she couldnt bear to part with her silver or didnt know how to bribe people, but rather that she was very satisfied with her current situation. She had never thought about returning to the Ding Mansion again. The fate of a concubines daughter was mostly in the hands of her stepmother, whether it was being pinched or kneaded, the concubines daughter could only obey. However, Ding Ruo didnt have the habit of handing over her fate to others. Although her current life was simple and bitter, she had the advantage of being free and easy-going. If she returned to the Ding Mansion, not only would she have to take care of Liu Shi, but also contend with her stepmother, which was too difficult and not worth it.

  Ding Rou, who always has a plan for everything, had a clear idea of what she wanted to do next. First, she would get familiar with the situation in Daqin, and make some money on the side. Then, she would persuade Liu Shi to elope with her, and they could live a carefree life together. Why bother going back to the Ding Manor to fight? Ding Rou knew that having a plan was crucial, so she wouldnt rashly take Liu Shi away without one. Now, all she hoped for was that Madam Ding would never think of her again.

  "What? Little Rong doesnt want to go back?" Mrs. Liu said in puzzlement, her daughter had always been eager to return to the Ding Manor before, how did she change now? Thinking about it, Mrs. Liu felt that Rong had changed a lot, "Little Rong, what did Gu Yanchang say to you?"

  Good opportunity, lets solve it together. Ding Rou said: "Mother, although I fainted for a while, I saw many things. The ghostly messenger was grateful for your kindness and good deeds in your past life, and let me come back to take care of you and make you live a good life. But I also know that in the Ding family, I didnt learn anything except music, chess, books, and painting. Before I returned to my body, the ghostly messenger taught me many things, and now I have come back to understand them myself."

  Ding Ruo looked at Mrs. Lius expression, seemingly half-believing and half-doubting. Ding Ruo said in a low voice: "Regardless of whether you believe it or not, the ghost messenger has spoken. As long as you are comfortable, I can survive. If you tell others about this, and the gods, Buddha, or Bodhisattva find out, the ghost messenger will be destroyed, and I...I will never reincarnate, forever falling into the sea of fire..."

  Its not like shell be burned to death in a sea of fire, right? If she was really possessed by a ghost, Ting Ruo would have been burned to death. Her mouth was covered by Liu Shi, and Ting Ruo looked at her with wide eyes, did she believe or not? Liu Shi carefully examined Ting Ruo, who was indeed her own daughter. Being kind to others is the right thing to do, having done good deeds in the previous life, thats why there are ghostly helpers, and thats why there are obedient and filial daughters like hers.

  Liu hugged Ding Rou tightly and whispered: "Mother wont tell others, how can Mother bear to part with Little Rou? In two days, Mother will go to the temple to pray for the ghostly matchmaker."

  Go to the temple to worship the ghost, only Liu Shi can think of it. Ding Rou rolled her eyes and said okay, she believed it, but going to the temple is too far away. "The ghost said that giving him some paper money during the Chinese New Year would be fine, going to the temple is not good."

  Liu nodded, her daughter thought more thoroughly than she did, "Really dont want to go back to the Ding residence?"

  "I wont leave you." Ting Ruo leaned into Lius arms, and Liu sighed: "Then well just live in the village. Mother will try her best to find a good family for you, Xiao Ruo. To be honest, mother thinks that being wealthy and noble isnt necessarily a blessing. Mother sees how hard it is for the mistress of the house."

  "Ah, Ill listen to Mother." Ding Rou smiled contentedly and hooked the corner of her mouth, the bomb was eliminated, and she could run towards a happy life without any worries.
