She didn't care, she just wanted to get married. She knew very well that the prince liked that one, but Zhou Rongrong was busy all day long, and the prince was also busy. The two of them could not see each other unless they met regularly.

The prince is so busy and what he needs is a gentle and virtuous woman like her, not someone like Zhou Rongrong.

Obviously she likes it too.

Mrs. Hong felt a little regretful that she had encouraged her daughter to fight for it. Now that the situation had come to light, she was probably really concerned about it.

"Then, what do you think we should do?"

Hong Qiuxue wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, "Mother, please promise me that you will go to distribute porridge tomorrow. The prince will always go to the porridge stall to take a look. When he sees his daughter distributing porridge there, he will definitely think that he is kind. It is also a good opportunity for me to have a few words with the prince."

Mrs. Hong had no choice but to agree.

The next day, Zhou Rongrong brought his men to the fixed location and saw Miss Hong, who was accompanied by several maids and nannies. But Zhou Rongrong brought enough people with her this time.

As soon as the Zhou family flag was pulled out, everyone came forward to ask questions when they saw it was the Zhou family flag.

"Brother, is that young lady from the north named Zhou?"

"Yes, my master's surname is Zhou."

"Ah, really? But did Madam Zhou find the hidden river? And she brought food with her?"

Xie Wuyou had already given Zhou Rongrong the natural salary of these people, and Zhou Rongrong was the main one. Zhou Rongrong had already explained everything to everyone, such as seeing the gods in the dream, finding the secret river with the guidance of the gods, and the fact that this time it was not grain but seeds that were distributed to everyone.

Now everyone became even more excited and bolder when they heard this. Seeing that Zhou Rongrong was dressed simply and looked like a neighbor, she gently asked loudly.

"Madam Zhou, Madam Zhou, is what they said true? Is this potato really high-yielding?"

Zhou Rongrong smiled and said, "Of course, this aunt has heard of the high-yield rice. It was also planted by my family first. It's just that we don't have enough rice seeds now. Lord Hong ordered the seeds for next year from me. Next year, you can plant it."

No one was very clear about the popularity of potatoes, but they knew about rice. It had spread everywhere in the Great Zhou, and they were all surprised.

"That's great, that's great. If this thing can produce high yields, we can plant it in the next few days and catch up with the next crop. We won't be afraid of going hungry after harvesting it. Everyone, hurry up and line up."

Zhou Rongrong didn't care who it was and gave ten kilograms of potatoes to each person. If she met a woman, she would secretly give her a menstrual bag and ask her to take it. After the person took it, he would take a quick look, his eyes would turn red, and he would express his gratitude profusely.

Zhou Rongrong was busy here, but Hong Qiuxue over there was not so lucky.

When a few thugs saw that Hong Qiuxue was beautiful and surrounded by women, they approached her with lewd smiles and teased her.

"Girl, you are so pretty, what are you still doing here? Come with me, I will take you out to play."

Bai Shao immediately stepped forward to protect Hong Qiuxue behind her and shouted, "How dare you! My young lady is the daughter of the prefect. Where do you get the courage from?"

The bucktoothed man laughed, and his bad breath could make people dizzy from a distance. He looked Bai Shao up and down and said in a filthy tone, pointing his hand.

"Hey, this girl is not bad, let's go together."

As he was about to step forward and pull Bai Shao's sleeve, he said, "What do you mean by the daughter of the prefect? ​​Are you kidding me? If the housekeeper doesn't want to stay at home, what are you doing here?"

Seeing that this was not a good situation, several maids put down their spoons and rushed over to stop them. However, these people were no match for this group of people and immediately a scene broke out.

Hong Qiuxue was almost scared to tears. She looked around, hoping to see the prince. But there was no prince there. Everyone was there to watch the show. No one came to help her. She could only shout and scream.

"I am really the daughter of Lord Hong. If you leave, I will not pursue the matter."

There was no way those people would listen to her. They were a group of restless people to begin with, and now in this year of disaster, they were even more unscrupulous because no one was watching over them. They thought they were the overlords of Yuzhou.

Just when the pitch-black hand was about to touch her, someone pulled her to the front and protected her behind him. When she looked up, she saw Zhou Rongrong with a smile on her face.

Zhou Rongrong glanced at Hong Qiuxue and said softly, "Don't be afraid, close your eyes."

I don’t know why Hong Qiuxue closed her eyes obediently. I saw the little beauty closed her eyes.

She drew the sword and chopped off the hand in one go. The bucktoothed man's hand was actually chopped off by her. She even raised her sleeves to block the splattering blood.

Only blood splattered on the two people's skirts. It took the man a while to realize that the bleeding severed hand was actually his own.

He began to howl in pain. Seeing that something was wrong, the others wanted to slip away in the chaos, but when they turned around, they were caught by Zhou Rongrong.

"Okay, open your eyes."

Hong Qiuxue opened her eyes obediently and saw that the hand of the man who was trying to catch her had been chopped off. She looked at the bloodstains on her clothes and understood something.

"You, why did you save me?"

She didn't believe that she didn't know that he was competing with her for the prince, so why did she save her.

In Zhou Rongrong's eyes, this girl was just a child. How could she care about a willful child? Besides, she lived in their house. If this young lady had a vicious mind, she would have found an opportunity to do it long ago. She didn't do it yet, and she was still a kind child.

Besides, Lord Hong is really a good official, Zhou Rongrong patted the little girl on the head and said with some helplessness in her tone.

"Of course I have to save you. You are still so young. You must bring guards with you when you go out in this year. There will be more of them, not less. I will be leaving in a few days, so you don't have to bother me."

After all, Hong Qiuxue was only fifteen years old. Seeing the blood on the ground, she was terrified and quickly ran into Zhou Rongrong's arms, as if she was safer in Zhou Rongrong's arms.

Zhou Rongrong smiled and shielded her view with her sleeves, comforting her in a very motherly way.

"Don't be afraid. I didn't kill him. I've already saved his life. It's not necessary. It's not necessary."

Hong Qiuxue retorted sullenly in her arms: "Have you ever killed anyone?"

"I guess so. Why are you scared?"

Now Hong Qiuxue had long forgotten about the prince. She came out of Zhou Rongrong's arms proudly, with her hands on her hips.

"I, I, I'm not afraid."

Zhou Rongrong joked, "Really? Look, the blood is flowing to your feet."

Hong Qiuxue screamed and hid in Zhou Rongrong's arms again. Zhou Rongrong laughed like a lecher with a soft jade in his arms.

Lin Qiong and Xie Wuyou, who arrived late, were looking at this place on horseback.

There is something Lin Qiong wants to say.

"Your Majesty, why do I think Miss Zhou is very, well, how should I put it?"

Xie Wuyou's face darkened: "If you don't know how to speak, don't speak. What a rude person. I came to see her after finishing my work with kindness, and she was hugging other people there. Let's go back."

The two went back dejectedly.
