Chapter 64 A man appeared beside her.
"Don't be so alarmed, Mom just wants to have a chat with you."
Xiao slapped the rice off her face, her gentle demeanor finally breaking down, and angrily shouted.
"Okay, okay." Liu Jiao shrank her neck. "Oh."
The Xiao family is shrouded in mystery:
"He hasn't married for so many years, and his doorstep is practically worn out from all the footsteps. Who is he doing this for?"
"Huh?" Liu Jiao exclaimed in disbelief, "It couldn't be for me, could it?"
Xiao smiled knowingly.
Madam Xiao probed, "Well, who knows? Anyway, what do you think if I let you marry Chen Chi?"
Liu Jiao pondered aimlessly for a while, then casually said, "He's a good person, devoted and considerate to me, has a promising future, and is good-looking. If he really marries me, haha, I'd be happy to."
Liu Jiao didn't take this seriously, and chatted happily as if it were just casual conversation.
Xiao and Gu Su, who was hiding behind the water vat, exchanged a glance.
She told Liu Jiao to continue feeding the chickens, then ran up to Gu Su and whispered, "Then let's arrange a marriage for them."

Xiao and Gu Su mysteriously sent her to Yangzhou to make purchases.
The place was still Chen Chijia's.
Although Liu Jiao felt puzzled, she knew that if people didn't provoke her, she would still be a good daughter and listen to her parents. So she picked up her basket and set off.
until.
A long arrow whistled, piercing the dawn.
Liu Jiao instinctively turned her head to avoid it.
A familiar shiver made her turn her head sharply, and she started running uncontrollably.
Sure enough, hundreds of sharp arrows came straight for her vital points.
If she hadn't developed the skill to dodge her grandmother's sneak attacks for nearly twenty years, she would have been riddled with holes.
Liu Jiao's eyes widened.
She looked up at the sky as she ran.
Frog Fun, oh my god, are you serious?!
To carry out an assassination in broad daylight?
Isn't it daytime?
Don't they all say that assassinations only happen on dark and windy nights? Waaaaah!
An arrow whizzed past her ear at incredible speed, and she watched helplessly as the stray hairs that framed her face were swept away by the arrow.
Aaaaaah!!!
Her hair!
Liu Jiao fled frantically, just like a chicken that's hard to catch at home.
They traveled tirelessly from south to north, never returning to their village.
As she huddled in the bamboo basket in the restaurant, she trembled and held her breath, watching the black hem of the garment chasing her walk straight past her.
Through the gap, she covered her mouth and could clearly see the patterns on the black hem of the garment.
Liu Jiao's pupils contracted, and a great deal of confusion swept through her mind:
Eagle pattern?
It wasn't my grandmother chasing me.
Instead...
She discovered that the people chasing her were marked with an eagle emblem shared by the royal family and the Sang family army.

"Report—"
"My lord, there's been unusual activity in Grass Village—"
Sang Ji frowned. He had been sitting at his desk talking to Wangyou Jun, but he waved his hand to let his subordinate speak.
The subordinate knelt down: "An unmarried young man has appeared beside Miss Liu Jiao!"
Sang Ji clenched his fist slightly: "Who?"
The subordinate bowed and said, "Chen Chi!"
Wangyoujun looked at Sangji's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, and then at the dark circles under his subordinate's eyes.
After a while, he realized what was happening and laughed.
Wangyoujun lazily reclined on the chaise lounge, and chuckled, "Didn't you say you didn't care about Jiaojiao?"
"No wonder you're so nonchalant; you've got someone watching you all along?"
"Chen Chi, this young man is quite good. He seems to know Jiaojiao well. Jiaojiao and him..." He left the sentence unfinished.
Seeing Sang Ji unable to contain himself and slam his fist on the table, Wangyoujun withdrew his gaze, fanned his face with a folding fan, and laughed heartily.
"Now you know you're in a hurry, haha."
