Volume 1 The Origin of the Wind and Cloud Chapter 134 VIP Visit
"Old Liangtou's family?"
Xiang Yun looked surprised. He had never heard that Old Liangtou had any family members in Yincheng.
"How many days has he been gone?"
"It's been a long time. Master, after you were bitten by a dog in Yangliu River a few days ago, Master Liang went back early the next morning."
"What... was bitten by a dog?"
Xiang Yun was stunned, and then he remembered that when he was assassinated in Yangliu River, he said he was bitten by a wild dog, but these guys actually believed him.
"By the way, Zhao Si, whose child is that child just now? I remember that there don't seem to be such young servants in the house."
"This..." When Zhao Si heard Xiang Yun ask about this matter, he suddenly became nervous and lowered his head and did not dare to speak.
"What, you can't say it yet?" Xiang Yun looked sideways at Zhao Si.
Zhao Si was suddenly frightened and quickly bowed and explained: "Your Highness, please forgive me, this... this child is a worker I recruited to help me."
"The workers you hired?" Xiang Yun looked at Zhao Si with confusion.
You know, Zhao Si is just a stable boy in the palace. The work he does is not too tiring, and the treatment in the prince's palace is good, but the salary of the stable boy is not too much. How could he hire a seven or eight-year-old?
Does the child help him with his work?
"Why are you looking for this child?" Xiang Yun knew that there must be another reason for this matter.
"Hey... Your Highness, you don't know something. I also saw that this kid came from a poor family, so I had the guts to bring him into the house and ask him to do some work like fetching water and feeding horses. I gave him a few copper coins and let him
You won’t starve to death.”
"Oh...where are the parents of this child? Is he an orphan?"
"That's not true, the child's parents are here."
"Well...since both parents are alive, how can he be so pitiful that he can't even eat?" Xiang Yun didn't understand.
"Hey..." Zhao Si sighed and said with some sympathy: "Your Highness, you don't know how miserable this child's life is."
"You should come and listen."
Xiang Yun saw the whole process of the child carrying water today, and he was already very curious about this child.
At that moment, Zhao Si began to tell the story of this young man. His surname was Qiao, and he was born in Niwa Alley in the south of the city, one of the poorest areas in the city.
Zhao Si also lived there for a period of time back then and knew this young man. The two were neighbors.
According to what Zhao Si said, although the boy has both parents, his mother is not his biological mother. It is said that his biological mother died in childbirth when giving birth to him, and then his father, a middle-aged potter, took care of him.
A grown man has to earn money and take care of children, so life is naturally a little inconvenient. Finally, after being introduced by someone, the man found a wife to help take care of the children, while he burned the kiln to earn money.
It seemed that life was finally settled and getting better and better, but one day, when the young man's father was burning the kiln, he accidentally broke his legs by a collapsed stone pillar.
The kiln worker who lost his legs and could not walk, although his life was saved, could no longer continue to burn the kiln. Without the breadwinner, the family suddenly lost hope.
The only support in the family is his daughter-in-law Huang, a woman in her thirties with pretty good looks.
When this woman first came to the man's house, she was considered a virtuous person. She did housework diligently and took good care of the young people. She was considered a good wife and mother.
But since the kiln worker broke his leg and had no way to earn money, the woman seemed to have changed. Her original virtuous, kind, gentle and hard-working character had all disappeared.
The latter spends the whole day either yelling at the kiln worker who is lying in bed, getting thinner and worse day by day, or he changes his target and vents his anger on the young man at home, either scolding or beating him. Although the man feels sorry for his child, but
After all, the entire family has to be run by a woman, and since he cannot share in the household expenses, he naturally has no right to speak.
As the days passed, the man's health became worse and worse, and Huang became more and more mean. He did not cook or buy vegetables all day long, and the rice in the rice vat had already bottomed out.
The latter would often go out and not go home for three to five days, and he didn't know what he was doing outside.
In order to prevent his father from starving to death, the boy took to the streets at a young age, trying to find a job to make money to support his family.
However, who would hire a seven or eight-year-old boy? In the end, in order to give his father, who had not eaten for three days, some food, the boy went to steal buns from a bun shop, and was eventually caught and beaten.
Had a meal.
Later, the young man was rescued by Zhao Si who was passing by, and then he was asked to go to the stables of the house and feed the horses with water. Two buckets of water and one copper coin. Although it was not much, it would not starve the father and son to death.
After listening to Zhao Si's narration, Xiang Yun was also very moved, and sympathized with this young man's life experience and experiences. In his previous life, he was an orphan and was raised only by his grandfather. He had experienced the feeling of powerlessness without the protection of his relatives.
At that moment, Xiang Yun ordered: "Okay, from now on, the wages paid to this child will be deducted from the accounting office of the house. Instead of two copper coins for a bucket of water, just one copper coin for a bucket of water."
"This..." Upon hearing Xiang Yun's words, Zhao Si was stunned for a moment. He looked at Xiang Yun as if he was seeing the Crown Prince for the first time.
"Why, isn't this bad?"
"No, no, no...that's great. His Royal Highness, you are so kind-hearted. You are the reincarnation of a Bodhisattva. I want to thank you on behalf of that child!"
Zhao Si bowed to Xiang Yun sincerely.
He couldn't help but secretly thought: "It is said that His Highness the Crown Prince has changed, but it seems that he is really different now. He actually has such kind deeds. Could it be that the Crown Prince put down his butcher knife and became a Buddha immediately as the book said?"
Xiang Yun was a little disappointed when he didn't find Lao Liangtou. He returned to his private room and sat cross-legged on the bed, preparing to use the merit creation formula.
Now that Xiang Yun has advanced to the rank of Wu Yun Yun warrior, the inner cloud power of the golden spiritual root in his body is obviously stronger, his body is stronger, and the speed of the operation of the merit creation formula has also been significantly improved.
Xiang Yun only needs to practice his skills for one night, and he can feel the improvement of his strength the next day. This makes him happy, but also feels a little nervous.
Calculating the time, there are still ten days before what he plans to plan. Then he will know whether everything is as he thought!
Xiang Yun closed his eyes and prepared to continue practicing.
"Dong dong..."
As soon as Xiang Yun closed his eyes, there was a knock on the door, and Lin Wan'er's voice came from outside the house.
"His Royal Highness, a visitor is here!"
"A guest is here?" Xiang Yun opened his eyes, got out of bed and opened the door to Lin Wan'er.
"Wan'er, what guest is here? Is it City Lord Lu?" Xiang Yun asked.
Lin Wan'er shook her head, looked at Xiang Yun with a strange expression and said, "Is it the prince and the princess who are here?"
"What, these two are here?" When Xiang Yun heard that it was these two people, he almost closed the door without reaching out. Xiang Yun was really afraid of Xiang Feier.
Xiang Yun was scratched by this woman that day. Thinking about it now, Xiang Yun's face was filled with burning pain. As the saying goes, a tiger's butt cannot be touched, but he slapped this woman's butt, fearing the consequences would be more serious.
"Your Majesty, let's go out to meet the guests."
"If you don't want to go, just tell me that your eldest son, I, is not well yet and is still bedridden." Xiang Yun waved his hand, intending to cherish his life and stay away from Xiang Feier.
"But... Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess said that she is here to deliver medicine to you, and she also said she wanted to check on your health."
"Ah... then... then you just say that I am infected with the cold and it is not convenient to see guests." Xiang Yun thought of another good excuse to thank guests behind closed doors.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a rather playful voice came from outside the hospital.
"His Royal Highness spoke with a strong voice. He didn't sound like he was bedridden or suffering from cold."
As soon as he finished speaking, two figures had already walked in from outside the hospital.
One of them is graceful, young and graceful as jade. The other is beautiful, beautiful and flawless.
Both of them are luxuriously dressed and have an extraordinary temperament. Who are they if they are not Xiang Feier and Xiang Changan, siblings?
As soon as he saw the two people appear, Xiang Yun, who was still thinking of some ideas to avoid Xiang Feier, suddenly stiffened with embarrassment. When he heard Xiang Feier's teasing words, his expression suddenly changed.
, said with a smile on his face.
"Oh, His Royal Highness the Prince and His Highness the Princess have arrived. It's really a rare visitor. Come on, please come inside, Wan'er, and let me serve tea to these two distinguished guests."
After greeting the two of them, they were invited into the room. The host and guest took their seats. Xiang Yun cursed in his mind why these two guys were here. He was still smiling and asked his servants to prepare for the banquet.
However, Xiang Feier waved her hand and said: "No need to bother, we are here to say goodbye to you."
"Farewell?" Xiang Yun was startled when he heard this and looked at the two of them.
"You two are going back to Dragon City now?"
"Well...we have been in Qinfeng City for more than ten days this time, and it's time to go back, so we came here to say goodbye to you. After all, there are only three of us named 'Xiang' in Qinfeng City, so I think we should come over and talk to you.
One sound.
Xiang Yun nodded and said, "I see. It's really rude of me to fail to show my friendship as a landlord these days."
Xiang Yun really didn't expect that Xiang Feier and the others would come to him to say goodbye. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Seemingly sensing Xiang Yun's embarrassment, Xiang Feier waved to the silent Xiang Changan.
"Chang'an, you go out first. I have something to say to your cousin alone."
Xiang Changan lowered his head and exited the room without saying a word. Lin Wan'er hesitated for a moment, then retreated and closed the door.
As soon as he saw that the door was closed and the beauty was in sight, Xiang Yun couldn't help but tense up and his little heart was beating wildly. He was not just imagining things, he was just bumping around like a deer, he was just worried that this woman would suddenly have a violent outburst to settle accounts after her fall.
After all, he was not polite to the woman on the hunting ground, and slapped the princess on the buttocks.
If this woman didn't figure it out and wanted to take revenge on herself, with Huang Yun's middle-level cultivation, she would really suffer a big loss.
The moment the door closed, Xiang Feier stood up. Xiang Yun also stood up subconsciously. Seeing Xiang Feier walking towards him, Xiang Yun couldn't help but wave his hands.
"Your Highness Princess, that...that day was completely forced by the critical situation. I'm really sorry for the offense, but you must never..."
Before Xiang Yun finished speaking, Xiang Feier had already stopped his momentum and stopped in front of Xiang Yun, staring at Xiang Yun's eyes with a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes.
"Xiang Yun, thank you!"
Five short words slipped out of Xiang Feier's red lips, leaving Xiang Yun stunned.
(PS: I moved yesterday and it was too late. I really didn’t have time to post. I’m really sorry. It’s already ten o’clock in the evening when everything is settled today. I quickly turned on the computer to code. I have to rush to work tomorrow morning. I hope everyone can understand.
Chapter completed!
