She didn't know if it was because Jiujiu's quest was longer this time, but not only did Jiujiu's Appearance increase by 2 points, her Charm also increased by 3 points. She also had 3 more usable stat points. Overall, she had gained a lot.

Looking at her stats, Jiujiu didn't immediately go to the quest. Instead, she turned around and told Xiao Bai and Steamed Bun to take good care of Little Cutie.
Xiao Bai and Steamed Bun quickly nodded in agreement. Although Jiujiu would sometimes bring them to the quest world, most of the time, there were only the two of them in the space.
Xiao Bai and Steamed Bun had been together for so many years and had played with everything that they could. They were so bored that they were about to rot. Now that there was a Little Cutie, they would take good care of him even without Jiujiu telling them to.
Seeing Xiao Bai and Steamed Bun nod in agreement, Jiujiu felt relieved and continued with the quest.
If you asked who was the most famous person in the capital, it would definitely be Zhennan King's son, Yan Sui.
Yan Sui wasn't famous because of his outstanding literary talent. On the contrary, Yan Sui was famous because of his reputation as a hedonistic son.
Yan Sui was the eldest grandson of the current dynasty's emperor. When he was born, he was bestowed the title of Prince and enjoyed the love of countless people. Since he was young, he was spoiled to the point of lawlessness. As long as he didn't commit murder or arson, there would be someone to cover for him. Because of this, his personality became more and more arrogant and eccentric.
Because Yan Sui's temperament was too arrogant and eccentric, he actually didn't get married at the age of twenty. Not to mention getting married, he didn't even have a servant girl.
Gao Zong had worried a lot about Yan Sui's marriage. However, due to Yan Sui's reputation, any girl he fancied would have news of their engagement the next day. Over time, even if Gao Zong wanted to speak for Yan Sui, Yan Sui was unwilling.
There was another woman who was as famous as Yan Sui in the capital. Her name was Ouyang Pinting.
Ouyang Pinting's name spread far and wide when she was only twenty-eight years old. Especially after she composed that Shuidiao Getou during the mid-autumn festival, it attracted Gao Zong's praise. After that Shuidiao Getou spread to the public, it was worshipped by countless scholars as a classic, and she became a goddess from then on.
Since then, the threshold of the Ouyang residence was almost flattened by people who came to ask for her hand in marriage. However, from the nobles to the outstanding scholars, Ouyang Pinting didn't take a fancy to anyone. Just like that, Ouyang Pinting went from twenty-eight years old to eighteen years old.
And the target of Jiujiu's mission this time was called Xiao Jiu. He was a little trickster who relied on divination to make a living. Logically speaking, it was impossible for Xiao Jiu to be related to Yan Sui and Ouyang Pinting, but the problem was that she was related to him.
If you read for a long time, please pay attention to the rest of your eyes. Nibbling Book Network recommended reading:
When Madam Ouyang was nine months pregnant, her mother happened to be ill. Because she was worried about her mother's safety, Madam Ouyang didn't care about dissuasion and went to visit her with a big belly. However, she didn't expect that there would be a sudden heavy rain on the way. Madam Ouyang and the servants could only go to the nearest abandoned temple to take shelter from the rain.
Things were so coincidental. There was also a madam who was nine months pregnant in the temple taking shelter from the rain. Because both of them were pregnant, they quickly talked about it.
In the latter half of the night, that madam was the first to move. Following the madam's heart-wrenching cries of pain, Madam Ouyang also felt abdominal pain and also started to move.
The two of them gave birth at almost the same time and both of them were daughters.
Because the temple was dilapidated and the wind was leaking everywhere, it wasn't good for the mother and the baby. Therefore, when the two of them gave birth, they each carried their child and hurriedly left. And because of the carelessness of the two nannies, the two children were swapped.
The child that was supposed to be Madam Ouyang's was taken away by that madam and that madam's child became the eldest daughter of the Ouyang family, Ouyang Pinting.
As for Xiao Jiu, he was supposed to be Madam Ouyang's child and the famous Ouyang Pinting should be that madam's child.
Moreover, that madam's husband's family was originally merchants and their family also had some assets. However, unexpected events happen and people's fortunes are uncertain. When Xiao Jiu was five years old, the man was also robbed and killed by bandits on the way to transport goods. And that madam didn't take good care of the child after giving birth. She was so anxious that she lost her life in a few days.
In one night, both of her parents died. Xiao Jiu's relatives and friends were like wild wolves who swallowed the Xiao family's assets. And at this time, Xiao Jiu was only five years old.
In one night, without her father and mother, Xiao Jiu instantly became an orphan.
The relatives who divided Xiao Jiu's assets despised Xiao Jiu for being a girl and weren't willing to adopt her. From then on, Xiao Jiu became a little beggar.
Every day, she would beg outside during the day and sleep in the dilapidated temple at night. Just like that, three years passed.
Three years later, Xiao Jiu met her master, the old trickster, Old Man Xiao.
Old Man Xiao saw that Xiao Jiu was pitiful and was moved by compassion. He adopted Xiao Jiu and taught her some rough techniques. From then on, the old and the young started their journey as tricksters.
When Xiao Jiu was young, she started to make a living outside. Her mouth was naturally very sweet. In addition, she inherited Madam Ouyang's beautiful face. Although she was young, people thought that she knew how to pretend. So, there were many people who came to her for fortune-telling.
However, although Old Man Xiao was a swindler, he had a good heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken in the little beggar Xiao Jiu. The two of them earned a lot, but Old Man Xiao didn't use the money to improve their lives. Instead, he only kept the money that the two of them needed for their daily necessities. The rest of the money was used to help those in need. Over time, the two of them even gained the title of living immortals.
Spring went and autumn came. In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed.
When Old Man Xiao took in Xiao Jiu, he was already over sixty years old. In these ten years, Old Man Xiao's health deteriorated day by day. In the end, he breathed his last on the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Before he died, Old Man Xiao took out the blood red fish pattern jade pendant from his neck and stuffed it into Xiao Jiu's hand. He said his assertion to Xiao Jiu: "Jiu 'er, you don't have the affinity with parents. You are destined to be alone for the rest of your life. Listen to your master's words. If you want to live, don't set foot in the capital. If you want to …"
Old Man Xiao didn't finish his words and breathed his last.
After Xiao Jiu buried Old Man Xiao, she wanted to follow Old Man Xiao's wishes and not go to the capital. However, by chance, she found out from other people that the jade pendant in Old Man Xiao's hand was a keepsake of the Xiao family in the capital. She respected and loved Old Man Xiao and prepared to go to the capital to visit Old Man Xiao's relatives.
