Chapter 134: Ch. 61 Part 2

Xiao Ling: "Please give me a castle" 🥺🥺🥺

Yanzhi: "Give little wife a castle!!! Preferably a spaceship!!!!" ⚔️⚔️⚔️

After leaving magistrate Huang’s office, under the terrified and repelling eyes of the people, Yanzhi accompanied Xiao Ling and the children to play wildly. They roamed around everywhere in the county, ate from all big restaurants and pastry shops. It wasn’t until beginning of Yin shi before Xiao Ling felt like he had played enough and wanted to go back to their mountain.

Once arriving back to the village, most of the village families seeing their horses and cart strode in avoided them like plagues, while others watched with more envious eyes and admirations. Since the talk about the dead bodies on the cart spread like a joke in the morning, fear of Yanzhi and his family took root in the hearts of most. And when news of the events that took place in the county was brought back, the fears of Yanzhi and his family bloomed like wild flower. Yanzhi and Xiao Ling ignored their gazes which were as if they were trying to avoid something abominable.

"Little wife you guys go ahead, I’ll take care of something before coming up." Yanzhi said to Xiao Ling bringing his horse to a stop. Xiao Ling also stopped the horse his eyes on Yanzhi who got down from his horse. "Where are you going?" he asked. "To Wu Dahu’s house, I’ll leave him with some gifts." he explained. "You’re repaying him for his help all this while?" It occured to Xiao Ling that they were yet to thank Wu Dahu for his help. "En." Yanzhi hummed. "Let me come with you, I’d like to thank him too and also grandma Shen." Xiao Ling quickly got off the horse whiles saying. "Let’s stop by the Jun family and take care of Chuntao’s matter too." he added. Turning to Shadow and the others Yanzhi instructed "you go back first, we’ll come later after dealing with things here. It’s better to get things dealt with sooner and wash our hands off the matters concerning the mortal world." "We understand." they cupped respectfully. Yanzhi hit the horse on the back ordering it to go by itself before he left walking with Xiao Ling.

....

Getting to Wu Dahu’s house Yanzhi knocked lightly on the door. "Come in, it’s not locked." Soon Wu Dahu’s voice came through. The two walked in as Yanzhi pushed the door opened. Wu Dahu who was squatting down and tinkering with something turned to them, seeing that it was the two of them he had a surprised look. He quickly discarding the things in hands and stood up. "Yanzhi, Xiao Ling how come you’re here?" he asked surprised. Zhao Shi come out from the room with a bad look, seeing them she quickly swapped her expression from bad to enthusiasm. "Brother Yanzhi, sister-in-law Lin!" She greeted enthusiastically. Xiao Ling’s face cracked from her address. "Muhan come here, greet uncle Yan and aunt Lin!" she dragged Wu Muhan playing in the yard. "Uncle Yan, aunt Lin." he greeted in an immature voice. Xiao Ling’s face blackened like the under of a pot.

"Come in, come in!" Zhao Shi urged "I’ll bring you water." she turned around about to go back into the room. "Sister-in-law Zhao we won’t sit, we have somewhere else to go." Xiao Ling quickly stopped her. "Yanzhi is looking for me for something?" Wu Dahu asked seeing that Zhao Shi had changed her face when they refused to sit. He wasn’t the only who saw it, it was obviously to not escape Xiao Ling and Yanzhi’s sharp eyes. Although they both had bad impressions of Zhao Shi and if not for Wu Dahu they would never have any dealings with Zhao Shi. Xiao Ling thought it was really a pity for a very good man to be betrothed to such a vicious woman. It can be seen on both Yanzhi and Xiao Ling’s faces that they didn’t want to stay around Zhao Shi, they made no effort to hide it. Wu Dahu was very embarrassed not knowing what to say. Yanzhi didn’t care about his embarrassment and took out a heavy pouch from his sleeves. "Although it came late, thank you for all this while." Yanzhi thanked in a sincere tone, to this human who continued to help him when he actually didn’t need it, Yanzhi had a very favorable impression of him. It was just that he didn’t like getting involved with people and had always cut a clear line. "Yanzhi, what is this?" Wu Dahu questioned doubtfully. "Take it first and see, this is what Xiang gong and I sincerely want to give you." Xiao Ling urged.

Wu Dahu nodded with a bit of confusion on his face, as soon as his hand touched the pouch he let go as if burned without taking it. His heart skipped a bit guessing what was in the pouch. "Yanzhi! Xiao Ling! I can’t accept this, this is too much!" Zhao Shi perked up her ears, seeing the reaction of her husband she had some expectations in her heart. If not for trying to look normal she would have ran and pushed Wu Dahu away and took the pouch. "It’s nothing much. Compare to your help to Xiang gong all this time, this is nothing but superficial." Xiao Ling said sounding more warmly, his impression of Wu Dahu soared higher. The man had no greed, or better yet he is able to keep his greed in check, he is really an honest man. "But..." Wu Dahu was in a complicated mood, although for the past days now he was with expectations of Yanzhi coming to him and assist with only a little, but it was only his thoughts when he was tired and Zhao Shi was nagging. The weight of the pouch was too much for him, he couldn’t bring himself to shameless take it even though he really wanted to. "Just take it." Yanzhi spoke again after long.

"Husband just take it, didn’t brother Yanzhi and sister-in-law Lin say that it is their sincerity to you. Don’t think too much and take it." Zhao Shi interjected with a polite smile, but behind the scene she was bitting on her handkerchief and cussing him to quickly take it. "Okay if you want to repay me for my help. Then I only ask that you take Muhan under your care and teach him, let him grow up and live with you." Wu Dahu said after taking in a deep breath. The place went quiet with no one speaking.

Zhao Shi: "What?!"

After coming back to her senses, she looked at him with anger threatening to break out of her. "Husband, but Muhan is our only child how can you bear to send him away?" she sounded heartbroken but in all honesty she was cussing Wu Dahu in heart for rejecting the heavy pouch. "He’s better off him Yanzhi, I know that." Wu Dahu was firmed in his decision. "I can’t accept him as my disciple." But Yanzhi refuted bluntly without mercy. Wu Dahu’s head dropped, he tried hiding the disappointment in his eyes. "I’ll have one of the elders accept him under them, but to be able to soar high will be of his own hard work." Yanzhi spoke again. Wu Dahu raised his eyes, tears pooled in his eyes. "Thank you! Yanzhi, thank you so much!" he thanked sincerely. "It’s no effort." Yanzhi was noncommittal. "But you still have to accept our sincerity." Xiao Ling said from the side. "But didn’t I just accept it?" he was unwilling to take the pouch. "If you don’t take the pouch, we will also not take Muhan with us." Xiao Ling threatened ruthlessly, Wu Dahu swallowed nervously at the cold look of him. He nodded his head like a chick pecking on rice and nervously took the pouch from Yanzhi, he felt that the pouch was too heavy for him to accept which made him uncomfortable and very careful. Zhao Shi watching wanted to go snatch the pouch so much, she was having a hard time holding it in in front of Xiao Ling and Yanzhi. "Okay then we’ll go first, we’ll have someone come pick up Muhan in a while." Xiao Ling and Yanzhi bid and went out of the house not intending to waste anymore time, just after they left Wu Dahu’s house became hell when Wu Dahu opened the pouch and was presented with 5 gold ingots instead of the silvers he had thought.

.....

They went to the second place which was grandma Shen’s home. She welcomed then enthusiastically and invited them to come into the house, like Dahu’s house they rejected her invitation too and stated their purpose. "Grandma Shen, Xiang gong and I wanted to come here and see you for the last time. Since our school will finally be opened in just a few days time we’ll be very busy and unable to attend to things down the mountain, so we came here to say our goodbyes. And also to give grandma Shen this." Xiao Ling said and passed a pouch to her. She took it feeling the heavy weight in hand she curiously and opened, her eyes were almost blinded by the silvers in it. "Xiao Ling! This....this..." she couldn’t find her voice with how shocked she was. "This is exactly 200 taels of silvers, even if grandma Shen doesn’t want to accept it you should think about Caicai. He’s still very young and has his life ahead of him, to live a good life he has to be very healthy and be able to grow up very well. Think of this as me taking Caicai as my godson, as a goddaddy I can do this much for my godson right?" Grandma Shen’s were filled with tears of gratitude, she didn’t even know where to begin thanking them. "Caicai, come on call goddaddy and say thank you to goddaddy." She urged Xiaocai. "Goddaddy, thank you." he called in a milky tooth and bowed. Xiao Ling chuckled "okay, okay, that’s it. Take care of yourself and grow well and when you’re strong enough you take care of grandma at her old age okay." Xiaocai nodded his head. "Grandma Shen, we have to go now." Xiao Ling informed. "Wait a moment, the rest of the clothes you asked me to make, let me bring them."
