Chapter 498: Long-lasting Malice (2)
Lin Yuzan looked at his cousin who was pestering his wife, and a flash of displeasure passed through his eyes, but he couldn't chase her away, so he could only helplessly turn into a resentful husband again.
At this moment, Wang Cheng gently opened the food box, took a look, frowned, and said to Pei Yi with some concern: "Ayi, the tonic soup that Shi girl carefully prepared today is somewhat conflicting with the taste of breakfast, and it is not good for your body. You should wait an hour before drinking it, which is more appropriate."
Pei Yi: ...
The boy glanced at the tonic soup in the food box, only to see a thick layer of oil floating on top, making it impossible to tell what ingredients were used to make it.
Then, he listened to Wang Cheng's methodical arrangements: "Wanniang, ask Mrs. Zheng to warm up this tonic soup so that it will be ready for Ayi to drink."
After saying this, Wan Niang hesitated and said, "Ah... then wouldn't Ayi have missed the time to go out and play?"
Lin Yuzan arranged Pei Yi's destination without even thinking about it: "Wanniang, draw the pattern later and let Ashi take Ayi to go and play with Shannai."
When Lin Yishi heard this, she was immediately delighted and quickly agreed: "Okay, Brother Gouzi has been talking about Uncle Yi these days, and even the herbs in the tonic soup were found by him in the mountains for me."
At the same time, Wan Niang also hurriedly got up to draw the pattern, for fear of delaying the boy's time to play.
Pei Yi's speechless gaze lightly swept across the two men who were plotting against him, and he knew exactly what they were going to do today.
He also had no intention of going to the theater and being taught a lesson, so he nodded in agreement.
At this moment, he felt a warmth on his hand.
Xiao Yining, who felt sorry for his fellow villager who couldn't join him to eat melons, consoled him, "Uncle, I will tell you what I saw and heard today when I come back."
Pei Yi nodded with a smile, and then he warned like an old father: "When your cousin is not here, Qingjie must not quarrel with Gungun. Stay with Brother Chengzi. Although he has the smell of herbs, he doesn't attract bugs."
"Don't worry, uncle."
After saying this, the adult and the child looked at each other and smiled as if no one was around.
Wang, Lin: …
Lin Yuzan: →_→, this brat seems to know you quite well.
Wang Cheng: ←_←, Qingjie no longer sees you as her father.
Then, the two of them stood up at the same time, each reached out and grabbed one of them, and ruthlessly separated the two little ones.
Little Yining was forcibly carried away by Wang Cheng, and she waved goodbye to her fellow villager reluctantly: "Uncle, Qingjie is leaving!"
This scene made Lin Yuzan even more furious. He glared at the boy unhappily and said, "Come with me."
Pei Yi looked at the old man's sour back, smiled indifferently, and followed him to the west room of his temporary residence. However, his mind was always on the bowl of tonic soup that Lin Yishi brought him.
Zheng's wife carefully brought the bowl of nourishing soup to the kitchen, and poured it into the jar with ease, while Zhao Ya was making nourishing soup for him.
One hour is not the time to wait for digestion, but the time to wait for this bowl of nourishing soup.
In this house, except for the two old men and the two maids, no one knew that the tonic soup that Lin Yishi brought was not drinkable at all.
As for the person who wanted to harm him...
Pei Yi lowered his eyes slightly, and the solemn warning Wang Cheng gave him a few days ago echoed in his mind.
At this moment, Lin Yuzan took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to the young man, saying, "Wait a minute, take one before you leave with Ah Shi. This medicine..."
However, before he could tell him the effect of the medicine, the young man opposite him took the medicine without hesitation and asked calmly: "I just want to ask one question, can I take Jiang Shannai's life?"
Lin Yuzan: ...
A trace of surprise and approval flashed across the man's eyes, but he returned to his normal expression in an instant, and continued with what he had just said: "This medicine will not harm your body, it will only make your face pale. As for Jiang Shannai, he has no one behind him. You don't need to ask me about his life. You should make your own decision."
Pei Yi raised his eyes slightly, staring through the window at Lin Yishi's happy smile, a barely perceptible hint of contemplation quietly flashed across the depths of his eyes.
Xiao Yining didn't know that there was a big drama going on today about her fellow villager. She was thinking about what happened yesterday.
It was obvious that her father and uncle would take her with them whenever they went out, and they only went to a few places, so how could they know that someone wanted to harm Lin Yinhu?
She - Lin Yining may have a small body, but she is a big person inside!
Could it be that she wasn't observant enough?
Sheng Hongtong, who was following behind Wang Cheng, had already become impatient. He looked at the path he had walked before and shouted unhappily, "Hey, you're not going to take us to the mountains, are you? There are wild animals in the mountains. Are you crazy?"
Wang Cheng paused when he heard this, turned sideways, looked at the kid indifferently, and said expressionlessly: "If you are afraid, you don't have to follow me. There should be a shadow guard protecting you nearby, let him take you back."
Sheng Hongtong: ...
"Who said I was scared? You clearly said you were taking us out for a trip. Why are we running to the mountain? There's nothing fun in the mountain." The naughty kid asked relentlessly.
After he finished speaking, he looked at the other two kids, trying to pull them to his side, and continued: "The town is much more fun than the mountain. Ben... I'll pay, and you take us to the town to play. Lin Yining, Wang Gungun, don't you want to go to the town to watch the variety show? I'll buy you snacks."
However, the two little kids remained unmoved. As if they had discussed it beforehand, they both shook their heads firmly and held on to Wang Cheng's clothes tightly to make their position clear.
The naughty kid immediately exploded when he saw this. He widened his eyes, glared at the two people in front of him, and shouted at the top of his voice: "If you don't go, I will go to the town to play alone."
After saying that, he turned around angrily and pretended to leave alone.
At this moment, the sound of melodious bells came from behind them.
I saw an ox cart carrying people slowly approaching them. As the ox cart moved slowly, when it reached the side of the naughty kid, a huge pile of shit slid down from the ox's tail gracefully, and fell heavily on the ground with a "plop". In front of the naughty kid, it slowly spread out. In an instant, wisps of hot steam slowly rose from the pile of shit and filled the surrounding air.
Sheng Hongtong:......
Wang Cheng, who was watching coldly from the side, took the opportunity to say, "It's two cents to take the bus, you can go to the town with the bus!"
After saying that, the man didn't bother to look at him again. He turned around and left quickly with the other two kids.
After a while, the naughty kid finally came to his senses. With a look of astonishment and disgust on his face, he jumped up and down. He turned his head to look at the three people who were getting farther and farther away, and hurriedly chased after them, shouting, "Wait for me, I want to go up the mountain too."
Wang Cheng stopped again. This time he stretched out his free hand and said to the naughty kid who came over: "Yiliang, I'll take you up the mountain."
"Why do you take money from me? I'm your cousin." Sheng Hongtong said in disbelief.
"Ten taels, and I'll take you up the mountain." Wang Cheng raised the price again without further ado.
"You..." Sheng Hongtong was so angry that he was speechless. He couldn't believe that there was such a shameless adult.
Little Yining was speechless about the tug of war between the big and the small, so he reminded him, "Uncle, my uncle means that if you ask someone to do something for you, you have to pay."
"Yes, your uncle was willing to take you with him before, but you refused. Now you want to go again, just to ask him to do something for you." Wang Gungun also echoed.
Sheng Hongtong looked at his two friends, his face flushed, and he stiffened his neck and said stubbornly: "Of course I know, I don't need you to teach me."
Before he finished speaking, he had already pulled off the small purse from his waist and placed it in Wang Cheng's hand.
This time, he confidently ordered: "You, take me up the mountain."
