The Evil King of Poison Girl Play: Playful Little Demon Concubine

Chapter 20 Mascot

After looking in front of the mirror for a while, Mu Xi put the knife in her skirt and walked out of the room.

As soon as she walked out the door, she saw the woman coming out of the small kitchen.

When the woman saw Mu Xi, her eyes were slightly dull and confused.Soon, the woman's eyes fell on the delicate knife on Mu Xi's waist.When she saw the knife, the woman's eyes were obviously paused, and her expression was a little weird.

Finding that the other party looked at her in a daze, Mu Xi moved her lips in embarrassment: "Ma'am, is there—is there anything wrong?"

"No-no. Clothes are more beautiful." The woman quickly recovered.

"Auntie, you are joking. By the way, Auntie, do you live here alone?" Mu Xi asked curiously.

"No, I live with my son, but my son went to the town to do some business yesterday, and he probably won't come back in about three or four days. Miss, can you let me see your pocket knife?" The woman asked after hesitation .

Seeing the other party lift the knife at his waist, Mu Xi's mind immediately recalled that day when the young hunter fell on him by the pool, his cheeks were slightly flushed.

Looking at the rosy glow on Mu Xi's cheek, the woman was slightly taken aback, and a complicated expression flashed in her eyes.

Mu Xi quickly put aside the admiration in her mind, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes: "Ma'am, do you know this knife?"

"It looks familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere. Can you take a look at me?" the woman said seriously.

Seeing that the other party's expression didn't seem like a lie, and thinking that she was wearing someone else's clothes, Mu Xi finally untied the knife and handed it to the other party.

After receiving the knife, the woman's eyes quickly fell on the golden dragon on the back of the knife, but there was a trace of nostalgia in her eyes.

Looking at the woman's actions, a trace of shock flashed in Mu Xi's eyes. This knife was the betrothal thing between him and the little emperor uncle who had passed away. Why did the woman in front of him look at this knife with such an expression? ?

After a while, the woman came back to her senses: "That's right, it's this knife."

"Ma'am, have you ever seen this knife?"

"Well, I saw a boy carrying this knife some time ago, where did the girl get the knife?" The woman was a little curious.

"My father gave it to me. I wore it when I was very young." Mu Xi hesitated before answering.

I heard from my father that there are two such small knives, one is on the little emperor's uncle, and the other is on my own. It's just that the little emperor's uncle has passed away, and the former emperor's concubine also died in a civil strife in the palace. Now, the other knife is missing. Did anyone get that knife?
"Oh, so it's a family heirloom. I heard the boy say that this knife is a mascot. Girl, you have to keep it. Maybe one day this knife will bring you good luck and give you a good fortune." Marriage!" There was a faint smile on the woman's face, and then she returned the knife to Mu Xi, but there was an imperceptible regret flashing in her eyes.

Hearing what the woman said, Mu Xi was taken aback for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and didn't say much, but thought to himself: If it was really an auspicious object, that little uncle wouldn't have died shortly after birth!As for the marriage, she does have a relationship, but it's a pity——

"I won't talk to you anymore, I'll cook first." The woman smiled at the embarrassed Mu Xi, then turned and walked back to the small kitchen.

Not long after, a burst of aroma wafted from the kitchen.Mu Xi, who was wandering around, was also attracted by this fragrance, and walked back involuntarily.After staying in the space of the Star Monument for a month, she ate grilled fish every meal, and she was tired of eating it. Now that she smelled the aroma of other dishes, her stomach gurgled uncontrollably.
