Xue Yao's eight year old body was light, soft and resilient, and it was natural that he could not fall out of this fall.
It was just that the old woman's ass was pressed against his leg and foot, and she didn't have time to get into a defensive stance, and her ankle got a little twisted from the pressure.
Of course, the injury wasn't serious, but it was an injury that was suffered to save his grandmother, and Xue Yao himself didn't know how much good this filial reputation would bring.
Immediately by the old lady "heart meat" to carry back to the temple forecourt, greetings to the maids and maids-in-law, whip horseback speed back to the house to ask the bone-setter to go.
The old lady was even more distressed when Mr. Bone-setter, in order to show off his skill, described the child's sprain as more serious, as if the slightest delay would result in a crippling disability.
Xue Yao is an adult mentally, before crossing the basketball accidentally can be injured more serious than this, the injury is clear in their own hearts, for fear that the old lady cried out a problem, since this whitewash point in case of discount is not good, so make a face and say jokes, want to coax the old lady happy.
The sixty-something year old lady, who was easy to soften her heart towards children, now saw that this child was almost crippled in order to protect her, but still bent on amusing her, the touching in her heart was even turned into endless tears, which caused the whole house to treat this as a big event, and the house was full of people standing outside the house.
Even the Xue family's grand master, Xue Qi, who was the official Minister of the Household, respectfully stood by Mother Xue's side.
Some of the outer courtyard rushed to the boy's mother-in-law do not know, standing in the inner courtyard whispering, all thought it was the old master's headache disease is serious, to be out of something big.
Until Xue Yao fell asleep in the old lady's room, the masters of the Xue family followed the old lady and left the room together.
It was only then that the matter was spread outward from the maids in the inner courtyard.
It turns out that it was that third house family's Yao Ershi who started the storm.
This is strange, this little brother is usually a master with no presence.
Even the servants of the Xue Family compound know that the third house is a house of no talent, and no matter what work they are instructed to do by the third house, they will not be able to get a penny of reward, so the subordinates are all a bit perfunctory to the third house master and wife, not to mention the youngest son of the concubine.
I really did not expect, this child actually hit the mark, in front of the old lady made such a big splash, the old lady in the future to the third house of the reward may have to be more up, the old master may also be active relationship, for the third master of the official mobilization of the force.
In short, the sky may be changing in this Xue residence.
Even Mrs. Chen of the third house noticed that the subordinates in the outer courtyard had changed their attitude towards themselves.
Think of this is dipped in the light of the concubine pup, Mrs. Chen heart is not happy, but jealous of the sour, back to the yard to call their son to the room severely reprimanded, blaming him for no eyesight, will not come to things.
Xue Qiong is only ten years old this year, because the memory is good, memorize poetry not to mention, even the four books are learned very quickly, is very much loved by parents, there is not much competitive environment, and naturally there is no early wisdom of the heart.
He was ignorantly lectured by his mother and excused himself with a puzzled look on his face, still happy in his heart about Xue Yao's stupid fall and limp.
Although these two brothers have the same father and mother, but by the mother's attitude, Xue Qiong was very young to know, Xue Yao is not a brother, but a rival, usually the old master old lady rewarded things down, he had to share equally with Xue Yao.
Because of his status as the first-born, Xue Qiong naturally had the ambition to be superior to Xue Yao, so he didn't rarely bully Xue Yao, who was two years younger than him, in the past.
After going back to his house and pondering for a few moments, slightly understanding his mother's meaning, Xue Qiong felt that he too had to think of a way to please the old lady, but not like the foolish Xue Yao who broke his own leg.
*
When Xue Yao woke up, he opened his eyes and saw the gorgeous and piercing furnishings around him and guessed that he was not in his room.
He is currently sleeping in the old lady's side room warmer, I do not know how long he has slept.
It was light outside, and the maid sleeping on the side of the collapse was still awake, probably at four or five in the morning.
As soon as I woke up, I remembered the system prompting for those 75 whitewash points, enough to open the redemption interface.
Xue Yao couldn't think of anything else, and without hesitation, he closed his eyes and entered the mental space to see what treasures were in this exchange interface.
He went in and tinkered for a long time before finding a glowing square in the bottom layer of the Rubik's Cube according to the system prompts.
He could see the item in the illuminated square, but instead of fixing the same thing, it shifted from time to time, sometimes it was a cabbage, sometimes an egg, and sometimes it would turn into an un-sliced salmon.
Look at the color, it's all fresh.
This compartment can be exchanged for ingredients?
Xue Yao is a little excited, although the food can t make Long Ao Tianning King not dig his tail, but at least it can quench his appetite.
Since wearing to this place, he was fed up with the poverty of Master Xue San's family, if this square could allow him to exchange ingredients at will, it would be the equivalent of carrying takeout ah!
Xue Yao gulped and couldn't wait to tap the illuminated square, which immediately projected a 3D projection option, "Is the Primary Ingredient Exchange Mall opened? Required Whitewash Points: 130."
"......" Xue Yao glanced at the whitewash point balance displayed in the lower left corner: 82.
What a shady system this is!
If he exchanged a chicken leg, he tolerated the expensive point, how to open the square also need so many whitewashing points!
He had saved the old lady's life, so he added 75 points, where was he going to earn another 50 points?
Thinking about it, he felt that it was not right, he had gotten 6 whitewash points before just by taking the blame for Auntie Zhou, why was it only 75 points for saving his grandmother's life?
Could it be that the whitewash point only counted his credit for avoiding the old lady's fall, and didn't connect the fall to the old lady's later loss of life, so it didn't count as a human life?
This system didn't have an AI that was ready to explain, and Xue Yao had no way to confirm his suspicions.
But the whitewash point is dead, you can't bargain for it, even if he bellyaches, he can't help this black hearted system.
Xue Yao dejectedly prepared to exit the mental space, when his afterglow suddenly noticed that there was a basketball-sized ball of light that had been circling around the Rubik's Cube, similar to the Earth circling around the sun.
Xue Yao tried to focus his spirit on that ball of light, which immediately stopped moving, and his own virtual body instantly shifted in front of it.
He tried to reach out and point the ball of light, as if the Transformers, the ball of light immediately "cackle squeak" into a ...... green lottery toy machine!
This machine has a total of five screens, above which there is a row of light curtains displaying the words [Turning the Tide Good Luck Machine].
With such an auspicious name, Xue Yao fell in love at first glance and hurriedly controlled his consciousness, raising his hand to grip the rocker on the left side of the machine.
A note immediately pops up above the joystick: [Costs Whitewash Points: 10 points per session]
Poverty caused Xue Yao to shrink his hand, eyeing his 82 whitewash points, thinking that if he fought for less than 50 more points, he would be able to eat, drink, and bring his own takeout, so he couldn't afford to spend 10 points on the lottery.
But he just opened the exchange interface, the heart itchy, hesitation for a long time, or can't quit, the heart secretly decided, only once to draw, if you can't draw something, in the future will never touch a "good luck machine".
So he consumed 10 whitewash points and pulled the rocker.
Different images began to change on the five screens at the same time, and after only about three seconds, they were fixed into one image in order from left to right.
On the screen were images that resembled colorful QR codes, and because the images were so complex, Xue Yao couldn't tell if the five images were the same.
But the machine soon rang out a cheerful little loli's beep: [Congratulations on winning the prize! Prize: one ingot of silver, size: five taels, happy spending!"]
Xue Yao used only a second to figure out that at the price of a roadside stall in Kyoto's bustling bazaar, five taels of silver would buy two thousand meat buns!
This wave of investment has definitely paid off!
According to this system's pettiness, with 130 points, only one compartment of the mall could be opened, and it was estimated that the items inside wouldn't be any cheaper, perhaps an egg would have to cost 1 point.
Now he only spent 10 points and got five taels of silver, which, when converted into eggs, could circle the globe!
Such good fortune made Xue Yao unable to resist the urge to continue, but he was a man of self-control and knew the truth of calling it quits when he saw it.
In the end, opening the mall was the long-term solution, and he couldn't waste too many points because of the uncertain benefits in front of him, so he called it quits.
The good luck machine took the prize he had won and projected it in front of him.
A brand new ingot of official silver.
There are two options below the silver: [Take Out] [Temporary Deposit (free for the first 3 days, renewal consumes 1 point/day)].
Xue Yao felt that he was an eight year old child, still sleeping in the old lady's room, and that carrying silver on his body would be easily discovered, so he chose to store it temporarily.
Early this morning, the old lady just got up to pick up the whole thing, came to the warm cabinet to visit the good grandson.
Seeing Xue Yao's rosy face and full of energy, the old lady was so happy that she let the maid call for a table of sumptuous breakfast and personally fed Xue Yao the food and soup.
Halfway through the meal, Mrs. Chen, the third householder, brought her son, Xue Qiong, to greet the old lady.
A roomful of underlings were a bit baffled.
The old lady is an easy-going mother-in-law, young, free of the daughter-in-laws of the cumbersome etiquette, but also do not like people to take the initiative to come to the door to bother, did not think that this Mrs. Chen suddenly came to the door to offer attentiveness.
Of course the old lady is not good to brush off her feelings and face, told Mrs. Chen and Xue Qiong to sit down together to eat, she also slightly converged, will give the dishes to the maid, let the maid feed Yao Ge'er to eat.
Except for festivals and birthdays, Xue Qiong had never eaten in the old lady's room, and at this moment, looking at a table of delicacies, his eyes went straight!
Seeing the girl continuously clip food into Xue Yao's bowl, Xue Qiong subconsciously and hurriedly went to hold the biggest piece of meat on the fish belly, and the sweet and sour pork also picked the tender pieces of meat with bones to grab.
The old lady did not seem to raise her eyes, but her afterglow saw it clearly, and her face more or less showed a bit of dislike.
Mrs. Chen was dying of anger, and under the table, her fingers twisted her son's leg.
Before she came, she taught her son how to get close to the old lady, how to say auspicious words, and how to sell out for favor.
In the house, mother and son are rehearsed once, I did not expect, a house, the son three sticks can not beat a boring fart, a pair of eyes only focus on the table dishes, really angry she could not wait to kick her son two feet!
And then look at the opposite side of Aunt Zhou born of the little beast, actually pick and choose, the good dishes are sent to the old lady bowl, that sincere expression is adults can not pretend.
What on earth is going on? Mrs. Chen became suspicious in her heart.
Why has this little beast suddenly changed? Once upon a time it was clearly a log!
Xue Yao wasn't clear about what Mrs. Chen was thinking, only because he had just gotten five taels of silver, he was happy in his heart and felt that thanks to the old lady's wrestling he had been given the opportunity, so he was sincerely grateful and didn't pretend to be flattered.
His foot injury was senseless after three days, but the House gave him five days' leave.
When you go to school in the palace again, you will find that the third prince as well as a few other readers are hanging their heads, without the previous arrogance of the flame, quail like in the Shangshu room to listen to lectures, not even exchanging pleasantries.
It must have been something big that had happened in the last few days while he was away.
Could it be that it was hit in the face by the Dragon Pride male lead?
No, the seventh prince is only three years old now, he has to step on stilts to reach the third prince's face, and he can't hit it.
After school, Xue Yao approached another attendant called "Qing He" to find out what had happened in the previous days.
This question, Qinghe full of grievances are leaking out, to Xue Yao complained: "You are good, something happened on vacation, the day before yesterday, His Majesty personally came to the study to ask for the crime, His Highness fell the seventh prince of the small wooden horse rocking car, His Majesty said that it was us urchins flirting with their brothers do not agree, to reward me with a good beating!"
Qing He stretched out his hands wrapped in gauze and looked at Xue Yao with tearful eyes, "After the beating, you're still punished for copying the books, I just got rid of the swelling on this hand today, but I went home after the beating that day and it was swollen to the point of turning purple. Brother Yao, I gritted my teeth and didn't confess, but you were the one who led the charge that day!"
Xue Yao was so scared that his legs and stomach twitched, and he hurriedly pulled Qing He to the corner of the palace wall, and persuaded him, "I accept my brother's love, and if you want to copy any books, just order me to do it, and if you are free today, I'll take you to the pavilion to have a meal to make up for it!"
Qinghe flung his arm: "I still have the heart to eat? Now the problem is not just copying books, His Majesty has asked us to coax the Seventh Prince into forgiveness within five days, or else we'll be kicked out of the palace! Your father works in the Ministry of Rites, so it's easy for him to find a chance to re-enter the palace, but my future is completely over!"
Xue Yao's eyes went black!
That being said, he did manage to get back to the Third Prince again through his old man, it was just a matter of making sure to fight all the way through.
Regarding Master Xue's poor family background, if he knew about this matter, he would not beat him half to death first!
Xue Yao's heart began to thump wildly.
Calming down and carefully recalling, there was no record of the events of his eighteen lines of cannon fodder in the novel at all!
That's a lot of hard work.
Coax the Seventh Prince in five days.
If you can really coax it, will you still be chipping his ears in twenty years!
King Ning is simply a vindictive ghost!
What should we do? If I can't coax him, not only will I be beaten up by Master Xue in five days, but I'll also be poked in the ass by King Ning's ears in twenty years.
No way!
Say what you have to coax!
Isn't he just a three year old? Chubby and definitely greedy, so maybe a bite of food will coax him into it!
"What's the daze? Scared silly?" Qinghe nudged him.
Xue Yao came back to his senses and righteously said, "Don't worry, I know what's in my heart, in the morning after this day, let's go to Empress Shih's palace and apologize to the Seventh Prince."
Qinghe was shocked, "Do you think I haven't had enough of the board or something? Send me to the door and ask Princess Shio to beat me!"
The author has something to say:
Real name report Xue Er Gongzi disliked remember a few old attack chubby.
A certain Dragon Pride pup's ears perked up and he turned his head warily to look over!
