Description
Suxi, who had been well cared for since childhood and had achieved excellent results, was a good girl everyone liked.
Lu Xun was exiled from his childhood and suffered humiliation before he became an emperor.
One day, Suxi downloaded a love cultivation Game App, and found that the game protagonist's eyes were dark and beautiful. He was drawn completely according to her taste, and she immediately opened the mode of baby raising mode.
"Why is there no fire in the cub's house? Do you want gold to buy it for him?"
"The pup looks better in snow white. Ouch, buy, buy, bought it!"
"Why was there a trace of footprints on the cub when he came out of the door? Is it a side mission to deal with the bully ?!"
Suxi enjoyed playing the cultivation game.
Lu Huan had lived in mud and blood since he was a child. He thought that living was just a matter of getting through one day then another.
Until he made a complicated discovery-
A warm charcoal fire was smuggled into his room.
His torn old clothes were quietly replaced with new ones.
Those who bullied him and ridiculed him, who knows who taught them a lesson, but their faces were swollen and they dared not go out.
On his long lonely journey, he had a female bodhisattva walking his path with him.
For some reason, Su Xi has been very unlucky lately.
1
She almost got hit by a car when she was walking, and she choked on her water.
4
That's nothing.
Three days ago, she was participating in a long-distance running event at a sports meet, and she was almost at the finish line for her first-place finish when all of a sudden she strangely tripped over a small rock and landed in a pile of crap in front of the entire school in the stands.
4
Not only that, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle when she stood up and was helped by her classmates to limp to the infirmary in a cold sweat, only to find out that her right ankle was broken just like that.
1
Su Xi had to be in the hospital for one hundred days after her injury.
1
It was the second year of high school, and although Su Xi had two good friends in her class, it was not possible for them to drop their schoolwork to visit her often.
Not to mention Su Xi's father and mother, who were so busy with company business at the end of the year that they couldn't take care of her, and had to leave Su Xi alone in the hospital and come back after work to visit.
Su Xi was lying alone in the hospital bed, swiping through all the social media apps, painting her cast black with a gel pen, and sighing with boredom.
She opened the app store, intending to download two games to play, and then suddenly was attracted by an ancient style screen game called "The Road to the King: The Sick and Lovely Prince Spoils You".
Fuck, the name of this game is a bit shameful, it looks so crude and unrefined.
18
But what caught Su Xi's attention was the game's introduction-
"Want to transit? Want to get koi? Do you want to be the luckiest person in life? Then come play this game! A one-of-a-kind experience that will show you what it means to be a prince's favorite! The special experience rebate makes you a good luck koi!"
13
Su Xi's eyes lit up.
It's not that she was superstitious, it's just that she did have bad luck since she was a child.
Although she had been well fed and clothed since childhood, her grades were excellent, and her family's life was stable, accidents, big and small, came and went.
It could be as big as a broken bone to a cut hand from spinning a pencil, they would come and go every few days. Su Xi simply had to question his life.
5
And recently, even more so, she was hospitalized.
Su Xi couldn't help but click on the game to download it, idly.
The game was downloaded quickly and took up only a few megabytes of phone memory, but when it finished loading quickly, it left Su Xi stunned.
How can a game of a few megabytes be so well made? The roof - you can even count the number of tiles, it looks just like the real thing, how many artists had to have worked to death?
14
The first game interface to appear is a house with a snow-covered eave, looking like a cold winter's day, and a hole in the eave that is leaking a bit of cold wind.
Su Xi turned her viewpoint to the inside of the house and realized that it was actually very shabby and only the size of a palm. There was only a wooden plank bed with some straw on it and a thin blanket that made people shiver at the sight of it.
1
Other than that, there was only one cupboard, which was closed, and there was no idea what was in it.
There were no tables or chairs in the entire room, and the wooden door was ajar on such a cold day, making creaking noises.
Su Xi put on her headphones and thought to herself, "The sound of the wooden door being scraped by the heavy snow is too realistic.
1
She didn't know where to start with the game, and poked left and right at the interface, trying to find the button that had something to do with the task.
Just then, the wood door was flung open and a small man in thin, coarse clothing returned, dripping wet, carrying a few chopped firewood.
It was a simple drawing, but you could tell he seemed tired.
1
As he put down the firewood, he lifted his sleeve to reveal a small, pale, frail arm, with a few whiplash wounds or something like that.
1
Su Xi couldn't see very well and tried to click on the big picture, but the game interface immediately popped up-
"If you want to see the prince's face clearly, you need to spend 20 gold coins, your current account balance is only 10 gold coins, please replenish and spend."
Su Xi: "..."
Traitor! The main character of the game doesn't even show his face! Still, need to replenish?
It's just a little game guy. How amazing can he be?
I'm not looking!
After putting down the firewood, the small boy immediately dragged his tired body out of the house and went out into the yard to chop wood.
His jet-black hair was still dripping with water, leaving traces of water on the ground as he walked forward.
Why did this small boy make such a mess in the middle of winter?
Su Xi tried to poke the top of the little boy's head, thinking that according to the general game, you should be able to click on the little boy and give him a name, but who knew that a box would pop up again-
"To get the Prince's real name, you need to spend 2 gold coins. Of course, you can also change your nickname, and the system will suggest several powerful names for you, such as Long Aotian, Ye Liangchen, Xuanyuan ...".
5
Su Xi: "... No no no, the real name is fine."
Just as she said she would, her gold coins were deducted by 2 in the top right corner, and an extra character profile came up in the top left corner.
Su Xi stayed for a second:...
Is this game voice-controlled? Is there an AI system inside? Something like Siri?
Su Xi soon focused her attention back on the little boy.
The main character of the game is a little boy named Lu Huan, with two lines at the bottom, a lifeline at the top, and a stamina line at the bottom.
2
Obviously, the game character has very little stamina left, and that line has become a measly ten percent.
1
And, as the little boy kept working busily, his stamina continued to drop.
Su Xi was terrified at first, afraid that his stamina would drop to zero in the next second and he would die, but she didn't realize that he had only so much stamina left, he held on for a long time.
He continued to climb up to the eaves to repair the roof.
Then Lu Huan went out again, but Su Xi couldn't unlock any other maps, so the only thing she could see was this hut. When he returned, the clothes on his back seemed to be torn, and he had two bloodstains similar to those on his arms and he was staggering more, and he looked like a mess in general.
Su Xi can roughly guess from the game's introduction that Lu Huan is a bastard son of the Ning Palace who is not treated well and is despised by others and that her main mission is to achieve imperial dominance with him.
But what was happening to him at this moment, and how the game is played, is still beyond Su Xi's comprehension.
The time flow in the game seems to be faster than in reality, and in the blink of an eye, it was dark in the game.
Su Xi saw that the game guy was still busy, and the game interface couldn't be poked anywhere, so she felt a little bored, and then the nurse called her for lunch, so she threw her phone away and limped to the hospital cafeteria.
The hospital's food smelled delicious, so Cebu ate two bowls of rice, came back for a nap, and when she woke up, her phone was still on, which reminded her of the game.
4
She was already bored and was going to delete this trash game, but she suddenly got distracted.
It was already late at night in the game, and the little guy, who had been busy during the day, was lying on the hard bed without moving, the thin blanket could not stop the cold wind, and the door was whistling.
Why didn't he move-?
Su Xi poked him, then he turned over, and his skin was a little paler than it had been during the day, and he looked like he had no blood at all.
What happened?
Come on, what kind of garbage game has the main character sleeps through the night for players to watch?
But Su Xi soon found out why and saw that the life bar in the upper left corner was only 30% blood red, while the stamina bar had fallen from 10% during the day to 1%, close to nothing.
Su Xi panicked.
The game character was sick? A fever?
During the daytime, you are so tired and exhausted, you are dripping wet and you are doing so much work, how can you not collapse?
Su Xi suddenly felt that this garbage game is actually quite logical, she watched the life bar in the upper left corner diminish little by little, anxiously, She hasn't even started to play yet and the main character is going to die, this little prince is too delicate!
2
She couldn't help but poke and prod, trying to see if there was any hidden cold medicine or something, but after rummaging around the house, she found nothing but instead saw two old, white-washed, thin robes in the closet.
This prince is too - poor.
Su Xi silently clicked on the map and tried to look elsewhere, but like in the morning, the map was not yet unlocked, but there was a lighted courtyard, which should be unlocked for now.
She quickly clicked on it and found that it was a very chic and rich courtyard with small bridges and flowing water, rocky hills, and winding corridors, very different from the woodshed where the protagonist lived. In the courtyard, the candles and lanterns were very bright, and there was a conversation between the two servants.
"That dog, the second young master has taught him a lesson during the day! He is a sick man, isn't he? Then let him go into the cold, piercing pool to soak more, and let him die sooner.
1
"I say, you can take it easy, although this concubine son is just a bastard, look at his fierce resistance to the housekeeper's whip today, I'm afraid he will only turn over a new leaf in the future."
"Turned over, just him? Yuck, I don't think he'll ever turn over a new leaf in his life!"
A large paragraph of text appeared on the interface, and Su Xi twitched as she read it, "What the hell, which two backstabbing servants are these? It turns out that the main character was dripping wet today and almost had typhoid fever because of them.
Blame them if their own game fails!
Su Xi was filled with righteous indignation and wanted to poke at them to see who they were, but the map was not unlocked yet, so she couldn't see them, so she returned to the woodshed.
After hearing the two people's teasing and belittling of the protagonist, Cebu went back and saw the little game man lying on the bed with his face as white as a sheet of paper, curled up in the corner because of the cold, seemingly unconscious, and she couldn't help but feel a little pity and guilt for her game man.
3
By all rights, she should have taken good care of him during the day, she should have had some hidden way to stop him from working hard so that he wouldn't be sick and feverish now.
Out of guilt, Cebu continued to search the house for the medicine.
But she still couldn't find it.
She couldn't resist poking the little man again.
Just then, a white bubble appeared on top of her little man's head.
"Water."
Lu Huan opened his dry, pale lips, his throat burning with fever.
He barely opened his eyes and pressed the backs of his hands to his eyes, and after a few moments, he tried his best to sit up and rolled off the bed, exhausted.
Su Xi tried to help, but her fingers poked into the little man's back, and instead knocked the Lu Call to the ground all at once.
1
Su Xi: "..."
Su Xi didn't dare to poke again, and the protagonist obviously didn't know it was an external force but thought he was sick and weak.
He climbed up and stumbled over to the windowsill.
The interface popped up: "Do you want to exchange 3 gold coins for a place to store water?"
Exchange gold - Su Xi is simply furious and exited out this interface, she can find it herself.
Water water water water! Pour the water now! She knew it was a mission and hurried around the house looking for water. Fortunately, she remembered that Lu Huan had fetched water during the day, and sure enough, there was a bucket in the corner and an empty teapot by the windowsill.
Fuck, it's dragging!
Su Xi was delighted, feeling that she was close to finding out how to play the game, so she laboriously dragged the bucket over to the teapot and filled it with water.
3
The moment the water was poured into it, the system popped up the message.
"Congratulations on receiving 5 gold coins as a reward. Please continue to work hard to help the main character achieve the path to the emperor in five aspects: skills, relationships, external, physical qualities, and the main storyline, and every 10 bonus points earned can be exchanged for a good luck koi."
2
What reward?
Koi?
Su Xi didn't take it seriously at this point, thinking it was just a game of make-believe.
She was still thinking about the water.
Although it was cold water, it should have been spring water fetched by Lu Huan in the daytime and it was drinkable.
But to make a sick little person drink cold water, no matter how you look at it, it's so pitiful.
While Su Xi was wondering how to boil hot water in this game, Lu Huan was stunned. He picked up the teapot and took two sips to ease the burning in his throat before slowly putting the teapot back in its original position.
What was going on?
Lu Huan stared at his teapot with suspicion.
2
He clearly remembered that after he returned from fetching water from the mountain three miles away because of Lu Wenxiu's trouble, he was exhausted and lay down to rest for a while, but did not fill the teapot with water.
But now, how could there be water in the teapot?
Not knowing what came to his mind, Lu Huan's face turned pale for a moment, and he picked up the teapot and pushed open the firewood door to go outside.
The crumbling firewood door already couldn't hold back the cold wind, so the snow suddenly poured into the house and blew the straw from the bed in the shabby house in all directions.
But he couldn't care less and managed to get out, stopping at a spot on the courtyard wall with his teapot.
The cold wind blew his thin clothes wildly.
Su Xi watched the game man's reaction with wonder.
Isn't it cold?
Can we go back now? You're going to ruin my stamina bar, which I've worked so hard to build up for you!
The little game character reached into the snow and searched for them, and suddenly found a few small insects that looked like stink bugs.
He poured the water from the teapot on the ground and threw the worms in.
Then he went to see how the insects reacted.
The insects struggled desperately in the water, but soon they swam out, shook off the water, and hid underground, not dying.
1
Although the little game man did not move much, Cebu could clearly feel his relief.
3
He exhaled a frosted breath into the air, then wiped his face with a tired look and turned back to the woodshed.
Su Xi: ...
Su Xi understood that the game character was afraid that the water in the teapot had been put down by someone, and he drank it directly from the teapot when his brain was dizzy, and only after he drank it did he come to his senses and turn pale, and he threw a few bugs into the water, only after seeing that the bugs didn't die, did he put his mind at ease.
-Fuck, how smart do you want to be?
Su Xi was momentarily shocked to the point of numbness, when she downloaded the game she thought the game was crude, but never thought the characters would react so vividly, not at all like paper people!
And I saw the little game man return to the woodshed and close the door tightly.
He stood by the windowsill, put the teapot back, and looked at it for a moment.
Lu Huan was still light-headed, and his head was heavy as if it were on fire.
He did wonder why there was water in the teapot when he had never poured water into it - could it be that he had forgotten to empty it yesterday?
It's probably just a case of burning oneself out.
But the two of them have done a lot of things like putting poison in the water and laxatives to tease Lu Huan.
(T/N: the two of them refers to Lu Huan's brothers that are favored, they'll be introduced later.)
Lu Huan's eyes crossed a trace of imperceptible coldness, he frowned and held the walls returning to the bed.
As long as he was lying down, the stamina bar would not drop and would rise again.
But as Su Xi stared at the young man curled up in a ball with a thin blanket on the screen, she was curious and slightly saddened by what he was going through and how he could be so vigilant.
She originally opened the game just to pass the time and skipped the opening animation, which was the character's early childhood experience.
But now she had some desire to explore and was idle anyway, so Su Xi couldn't help but go back and turn on the opening animation while the game character was sleeping.
In the beginning, there is no information about the origins of the little game man, and his origins are supposed to be deciphered later, but since the system says that the real identity of the game man is a prince, then he must be the missing prince. I just don't know how he became the concubine son of the Ning Palace.
The animated scenes switch quickly, but Su Xi still sees the thin boy's young age full of misery in the few scenes that remain.
The walls of the Ning Palace are deep, and the main wife doesn't say anything, but she treats Lu Huan harshly, he lacked food and clothing all year round.
The half-grown boy, who was still growing up, did not have enough to eat or sleep and hid in the dark as if he were hiding in a ditch.
Lu Wenxiu, the second youngest son of the Ning royal family, was the most arrogant and vicious and often ordered his servants to tease and humiliate Lu Huan, who would receive more than a dozen lashes if he offended him even a little, which resulted in countless marks on his body over the years.
2
Lu Yu'an, the eldest young master of the Ning royal family, is a hypocrite and a liar, just like the Emperor of Ning, who turns a blind eye to these events.
1
In addition, there is also an aunt in the Ning royal residence, who is weak and incompetent with a daughter, and is also bullied, but needs Lu Huan's help.
1
Several images fly by, and Su Xi's game man is either covered in blood or clenching his teeth to survive.
Perhaps the game is so realistic that it makes her feel as if there really exists a game protagonist who lives in the Ning Palace and is tortured, waiting for the day when his wings will flourish and he will ascend to the throne of supremacy.
But fortunately, it's only a game, Su Xi looked at the protagonist again - the wind was bitterly cold outside the firewood door, and fortunately, it's only a game, otherwise, a real person in such a harsh place would surely freeze to death.
But what else could she do?
When Su Xi had a chance to look at it, combined with the rewards from the party, she still had 13 gold coins.
The system immediately popped up: "The main character is currently extremely lacking in material resources, so I suggest that you start by changing his material conditions.
Su Xi: "Okay, okay, it's okay for the poor little guy to improve his condition a little bit."
After saying that, the store immediately popped up.
The first one is made of fox fur, and the gold threads and dark patterns look extremely luxurious at first glance, with a price of 13,000 gold coins.
The system said: "The conversion to RMB is only 130 yuan."
(T/N: 130 yuan is 19.77 USD and RMB is Chinese currency)
1
Su Xi:...
"Goodbye, just forget I ever said that earlier, and let the poor little thing continue to freeze."
3
"... "The system seemed to be a bit speechless and panned back the page to show it to Su Xi.
On the last page, the price of a warm robe with no holes is 30 gold coins.
"It's only 30 gold coins, which is only 30 yuan in Chinese currency, and a cup of milk tea costs 15 yuan these days.
1
(T/N: 30 yuan is 4.56 USD and 15 yuan is 2.28 USD)
While the system desperately hinted at it, Su Xi seemed to be completely blind to its hints and ruthlessly pushed the store straight down.
4
Joking aside, it's not like her pocket money came from a gust of wind, so how can she casually invest in the game's gold coins? It's just a game, okay, and she's not going to lose her mind!
In the end, Su Xi finally drew the line and chose from the store...
"Using straw to fix the leaky wood door" and "replacing the thinnest and useless quilt with a very thin one that can barely keep you warm" cost 8 gold coins for the former and 5 gold coins for the latter, adding up to 13, which is just enough to spend all the gold coins given by the system during registration and the bonus coins she just got from pouring water.
It seemed that the system had nothing to say about Su Xi's stinginess, and when she made her choice, it closed the store.
The in-game character was still sleeping, ignorant of the world outside the game.
Su Xi was bored and watched him sleep for a while, a little curious about the little man's reaction when he woke up, after all, the game is so realistic, his reaction will be very interesting.
However, when the little man didn't wake from his sleep, Su Xi turned off her cell phone and got up to go with the nurse to do a leg rehab.
After the rehab, Su Xi's classmates also came to visit her after school, bringing their homework with them.
...
On the Su Xi's side, air conditioners were blowing, she was swaying to the music being played from her airpod and gossiping with her classmates, but in the shabby wood hut, it was freezing cold from dark to dawn.
He slept heavily because of typhoid fever, and when he woke up, his back was covered in cold, sticky sweat.
He closed his eyes and raised his hand to wipe his forehead, feeling relieved that his fever was gone. His bones were always weak, and any remaining soreness would just be a matter of getting some sleep.
His mouth was still dry, though.
He managed to sit up on the hard bed with great difficulty at the door.
A few people outside the door seemed to see that Lu Huan hadn't shown up yet, and was rudely talking loudly outside the door: "He really thinks he's the young master.
1
Another person said: "It's a pity that the young master's heart is in the right place but not his life."
Lu Huan's eyes showed boredom and indifference, and he didn't pay attention. He lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed, but when his fingers touched the blanket, he was stunned and his eyes crossed with disbelief...
The blanket was clearly thicker as if someone had filled it in the night while he was asleep.
Could it be his illusion?
The pot of tea from last night, for instance, was the same.
Lu Huan also felt something wrong. It seemed to be less cold today, and less cold wind seeped in, so he subconsciously looked towards the doors and windows and saw that the worn-out wood door was wrapped tightly with straw at some point, so that there were fewer gaps for the wind to enter.
Did someone really break into his room last night? Lu Huan was alerted and jumped off the bed onto the ground.
Naturally, he did not think that anyone in the Ning Palace would show kindness to him.
His head was still dizzy, and his lips were white, but he managed to stand firm, lifted the blanket from the bed, and shook it out.
He had a cold, stern look on his face, trying to shake out some kind of needle or something.
1
But after shaking for a few moments, nothing fell off. Instead, the obviously stuffed blanket fell down with a few pieces of cotton wool, which was not soft and comfortable, but clean and, indeed, much warmer than before.
How could this be?
Lu Huan was startled for a moment.
He had a serious look on his face, and first looked around the house, but he saw that it was empty, and there was not a single footprint, neither by the door nor by the window.
Moreover, he is always vigilant, and even if he is feverishly drowsy, he couldn't completely sleep through the night and let someone in without noticing.
In addition, it is also the case that the door is filled with straw, which is strong and fine and looks perfectly normal, and there is no evidence of any deliberate mischief. On the contrary, it was able to block the cold wind for a few moments.
This is unbelievable!
Lu Huan wondered for a moment if he was still feverish and hallucinating, but when he lifted his hand and touched his forehead, it was cold and clammy.
Or perhaps he was so feverish last night that he crawled out of bed half-asleep and mended the door? He had long planned to mend the ventilated crack in the wood door before it was too late, but he had been too tired lately, so he delayed for a while.
No matter how much he thought about it, it still didn't make sense.
Lu Huan stared at the mattress, then stared at the obviously mended door, and his eyes were alert and on guard, but he didn't find anything suspicious for the time being, so he had to give up for now.
He just went to the closet, and from the bottom of the tattered clothes, he pulled out a dagger in the shape of a sharp stone and placed it secretly in the crack of the wall under the bed.
The sound of the two servants' urging sounded outside the door again.
Today was the day when the Ning royal family went to the ancestral shrine to pay respects to their ancestors, so Lu Huan, who lived in a shabby courtyard, was surrounded by servants, and all he heard in the early morning was the noises of killing chickens and slaughtering sheep.
Although he was the son of a concubine, he was forced to go to the ancestral rituals so as to avoid leaving behind another scandal.
Lu Huan washed his face with cold water to make the aftereffects of his typhoid fever fade from his head a little before turning to go out.
He was used to the stares of the servants along the way, so he did not avoid them.
The water in the Ning Palace's ancestral hall froze, making it bitterly cold.
The son of a concubine was not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, so he had to kneel outside the main gate. He was only able to wear a few pieces of clothing, all of which were very thin, not only patched, but also much smaller because of the youth's long and slender bones, and the cuffs and ankles showed off a section of his pale skin, which was wet with mud and snow on the ground, and froze white in the cold wind.
Half an hour later, two sedan chairs with vermilion lacquer and silver roofs arrived late and stopped at the main hall of the ancestral hall.
Two young men a few years older than Lu Huan, dressed in expensive clothes, stepped on the backs of their servants and came down.
The shorter one was Lu Wenxiu, who looked at Lu Huan and snorted a little.
Yesterday, he found an excuse to teach Lu Huan a lesson, thinking that he would lie in bed today and not be able to get up, but he was so hard-boned that he managed to get up anyway.
As soon as he got out of the sedan chair and saw the straight back of Lu Huan, he was very displeased.
When he stared at Lu Huan, he saw that the young man, though thinly dressed and with pale cheeks, was looking back at him with his head held high, not dodging, and he immediately became even angrier.
Before he could roll up his sleeves and walk over, his elder brother Lu Yu'an held him down by the shoulder.
"Wenxiu, this is the ancestral hall." Lu Yu'an shook his head, scolding in a low voice: "Don't do anything foolish, go back, and do what you have to do."
Lu Wenxiu shook his sleeve and glared at Lu Huan, "He was let back in yesterday, and it was really convenient for him."
Then a peony phoenix sedan chair followed, and a noblewoman came down from it, tightened her golden hairpin and fox fur, and said to Lu Yu'an and his brothers, "Why don't you go in quickly?"
After the two brothers went in, Lady Ning glanced at Lu Huan, who was outside the ancestral hall, before turning around and entering the hall.
Lu Huan had no expression on his face but looked up at her indifferently.
If it were possible to remove this thorn in her side, she would have done so long ago, but this teenage boy was so tough and stubborn that he had survived until now.
Two servants came with food boxes to distribute food to some guards outside the ancestral hall.
When it was Lu Huan's turn, Lady Ning raised her hand to stop them.
She said, "It's freezing cold outside, and I'm worried you'll starve if you don't eat and drink on the day of the ancestral hall ceremony.
"You two, take the third young master's food to his quarters."
The two servants nodded in succession and dropped their heads.
"I'll have the kitchen make some that you like." Lady Ning maintained the false appearance of the main wife in front of outsiders, but the thin young man in front of her clearly had no patience for her.
Although Lu Huan was famished, his back was straight, his cold face was expressionless, and he didn't even bother to respond.
What do you like? It was nothing more than steamed bread and vegetables.
Lady Ning went a little pale, smiled, and was helped by a maid into the side hall, and only after entering did irritation immediately appear on her face.
The snow swirled and fell, burying in the blink of an eye the deep alley outside the ancestral hall, and Lu Huan kneeled outside the vermilion walls and green tiles, his body, and shoulders covered with snow, becoming a miniature snowman.
From time to time, laughter could be heard inside the ancestral hall.
Outside the ancestral hall, however, the alley was deadly quiet and cold.
The young man knelt motionless on the spot, his eyes hanging down, listening to the harsh wind whistling in his ears, feeling the unending piercing cold, day after day, for fourteen long days, his heart crawling with gloom and hatred.
...
Su Xi and her classmates finished their homework together, and after sending them off, Su Xi's father and mother also came.
As soon as they entered the hospital room, the aroma of black chicken soup from the thermos in her mother's hand spread throughout the room.
1
Su Xi was instantly greedy, and exclaimed in surprise, "Mom, how did you know I wanted to drink your soup!"
2
Su Xi's mother put the thermos on the bedside table, picked up the two snack bags that had fallen next to the trash can, and threw them into the trash, saying angrily, "I told you not to eat snacks if you do, how can you still drink my soup?"
With her leg in a cast, Su Xi cheerfully moved to the edge of the bed, eagerly staring at the thermos: " I have a big enough stomach that I can still eat it!"
While Su Xi's father cleaned up the hospital room, Su XI's mother pulled up a chair, ladled the chicken soup into a bowl, and handed it to Su Xi.
She also carefully took a small table and put it on the bed, so that Su Xi could put the bowl of chicken soup on it so that it wouldn't be hot: "Then finish the whole bowl for me."
1
After finishing the chicken soup and eating some rice, Su Xi burped and felt warm in her stomach.
Su Xi's father and mother chattered with her for a while longer and tidied up after her.
They watched her lay down to sleep and tucked her in before the couple gently left the room.
Su Xi is a night owl, of course, she couldn't sleep at this time, but suddenly she heard her phone ringing and pulled it out from under her pillow, then she remembered she almost forgot about the little man in the game.
She quickly went online, and as soon as she opened the game interface, several messages popped up.
It was the reward she had received a few hours ago for redeeming the "Mending The Firewood Door" and "A Thin Blanket".
Congrats on the successful initial improvement of the material base, with a gold coin reward of +8 and external environment improvement points of +1!
External environment improvement points?
Was that the system previously said that accumulating 10 points could be exchanged for a koi?
Su Xi turned off the message haphazardly and was about to study what it was when she heard a footstep.
She hadn't unlocked any of the other interfaces yet, and the screen was stuck in the game character's dilapidated woodshed, which was empty, with the bedding neatly folded.
The woodshed was empty, the bedding was neatly folded, and it was evening.
No - Su Xi noticed that there seemed to be an extra simple food box in the woodshed, on top of the closet.
She reached out and poked at it.
It was cold and unappetizing, and she wondered what kind of food was in it.
The sound of footsteps outside the wood door got closer and closer, and three seconds later, the door was pushed open.
It was not the game man who sneaked his head in, but two servants in coarse clothes, with a "Lu Jia" on the left side of their head and a "Lu Yi" on the right side.
Su Xi: ...
Isn't the name of the game characters a bit, too random?
Lu Jia and Lu Yi are also cartoon paper people, but it is obvious that they are not very well built, their arms are stout like lotus roots, and their heads and legs are short.
(T/N: Paper people means people with only one purpose in a story, they don't have character depth.)
1
Are these two people here to steal something? What could have been stolen from the game little man's house when he was so poor?
When Su Xi was confused, she saw Lu Jia walk directly to the food box, reached out and carried it down, and said to Lu Yi, "Since it's the food for the ceremony, the lady specially asked the kitchen to send it over and that boy is expected to eat better than us," he said.
Lu Yi looked so hungry that his mouth was watering, and they opened the food container.
As soon as they opened it, the two paper men were dumbfounded.
Su Xi was also dumbfounded off-screen.
There was nothing good in the food box, just some leftovers, a few skinny green vegetables with no color, hanging from the top, and some dried up rice bran and steamed bread underneath.
Before Su Xi could feel sorry for her game character, he saw Lu Jia reach out and grab a green vegetable, put it in his mouth, and chewed it.
He had such a hard time eating it to the point of spitting it out: "It's so damn hard to eat."
Seeing him like that, Lu Yi didn't want to steal anymore, and angrily said, "I thought I could get some delicious food out of this guy, Who knew that his food could be so bad on the day of worship, it's worse than ours."
Lu Jia said: " let's carry to the kitchen to feed it to the pigs, who told that brat to ignore us this morning, he obviously despises us as servants, so this counts as teaching him a lesson."
Lu Yi immediately clapped his hands and agreed: "Done!"
Su Xi glared at them, furiously, it's not even good enough to eat, and not only do you leave her game character behind nothing? Want to dump it on purpose?
How big is the grudge?
These two idiots!
She was so furious that she wanted to slam the wood door in front of the two of them, but she was a beat too slow and they disappeared outside the house before she could close it.
Su Xi was in a hurry and tried to follow the spinning interface to catch up.
But the interface doesn't budge!
The system immediately popped up and disappeared: "Currently only unlocked Lu Huan's wood house, if you want to unlock the kitchen, you must accumulate more than 3 points."
Su Xi was so angry that she didn't hesitate: "Three points, right, deduct!"
System: "... No, points cannot be exchanged for RMB, they must be saved by doing quests."
"For example," Then the system popped up in the mall, selling Su Xi an item called "Repair the Roof" and said, "Yesterday, when the hero repaired the roof, he still had the last crack left, so if you help him finish it, you will be rewarded with points for improving the external fundamental environment.
"Taking money?" Su Xi glanced at the price.
20 gold coins! Two cents, rounded up to the nearest dollar, is enough to buy a piece of gum.
Su Xi is a bit hesitant.
The system: "... " Never seen such a stingy person before.
9
But the two men stole Su Xi's game character's food right under Su Xi's nose, which is the same as robbing Su Xi right in front of her face, and she is furious, unable to care about her "Never give money" vow.
Her eyes were closed and she declared: "Accept the transaction.".
The system immediately beamed with joy, gouged 20 gold coins from Su Xi, and quickly finished repairing the roof.
"Completing the roof repair task, congratulations on getting the gold coin reward +3 and external environment improvement points +2!"
The points accumulated in the upper right corner are 3.
"Click" sounded, and the kitchen was unlocked.
Su Xi couldn't wait to chase after them to the kitchen.
The two thief servants were leisurely walking around the kitchen, when the Ning royal family had probably gone to hold some large ritual ceremony, nobody was in the kitchen, and no noise could be heard outside, so the two were unscrupulous.
Lu Yi searched in the corner to see if there was anything to eat.
Lu Jia, on the other hand, opened the lid of the food container of Su Xi's game character on the counter and then turned to get the feed for the pigs, intending to mix it with the food.
As soon as he turned around, Su Xi smirked and ran her finger across the screen, then picked up the lid and put it back on the food container.
Lu Jia heard a noise, turned back, and froze.
The lid - he had just opened it, hadn't he?
He shook his head, feeling a little startled, walked over to open it again, and then turned to reach the feed.
But when he came staggering over, holding the feed from high up, he saw, saw, the lid fucking close again!
3
"The hell was that?!" Lu Jia almost hit his foot with the feed in his hand.
He approached incredulously and stretched out a heavy hand to lift the lid off.
Su Xi crossed her legs on the bed and fought him, slamming the lid shut hard with one finger.
"Snap!"
Lu Yi was stunned: "What's wrong? what's wrong?"
Lu Jia's face was already turning green and white.
He trembled and flicked the lid open once again.
However, in the next second, the lid rose up in the air in front of the two of them, turned in the air, almost clipping their necks, and jumped eight times, and finally, it snapped shut and covered the food box!
Both of them: ?
Open, close.
Open, close.
Moving away, the whole food box was picked up at once by invisible hands in the air and leaped back to its original position.
The two men: ...
The feed smashed to the ground, the two men's faces were ashen, their heads bumped together, and they were dazed.
The two men got up from the floor covered in mud and hurriedly ran towards the kitchen, crying out as they ran: " Holy shit! Damn it!"
Su Xi heard the two men's harsh screams and the butler outside yelling, "What's wrong with you!"
She was happy inside.
Hee hee hee, Who told you to steal my stuff.
Another message popped up from the system: "Congratulations on successfully assisting and handling the protagonist's interpersonal relationships, congratulations on gaining a Gold Coin Bonus +3 and Interpersonal Relationship Points +1!"
This can also earn gold coins?
Su Xi instantly saw the money.
She was on the map, saw those two people running around like headless chickens, and they actually ran to the Protagonist Lu Huan's firewood yard at once, she was so happy that the interface followed and transferred over.
The two were panting, propped up on their knees, their faces were paperwhite.
Lu Jia wept and said, "What the hell was that in the kitchen?"
Lu Yi gasped, his guts were about to fly out: "I, how would I know?"
And at that moment, they suddenly had a sense of foreboding. Su Xi curled her index finger and snapped it on her thumb, and gave a vicious kick to Lu Jia's buttocks with so much force that Lu Jia instantly flew out and smashed against the courtyard wall, a man-made crater.
Lu Yi was stunned, before he had time to think about what horror had happened, his face received a slap.
And after Su Xi finished kicking the two and slapping them, the sound of gold coins falling into her pockets rang out.
Gold coins +2, +2.
Su Xi: there really are gold coins to take?
She fist pumped and kicked two more times.
Only to see the screen flying pop up a non-stop +2 +2 +2 +2 +2 ...
Su Xi's two eyes were filled with $$$, and played with delight, saying to the system: "This part of the design is good, it's like Mario's mushroom, money keeps coming out."
23
System: ...
The screen flashed a line, "Please do not be greedy", then it stopped dropping gold coins.
Su Xi looked at the upper right corner and saw that the gold coins accumulated 23, points accumulated 4, the corners of her mouth twisted somewhat unsatisfied.
The two men were howling on the ground for a while and were dragged away by a few other servants who thought they were crazy.
The Ning Royal Palace is huge and vast, and there is surely a larger capital outside of it, but the only two small corners that Su Xi can unlock right now are the protagonist's woodshed and the kitchen.
These two places soon became empty and no longer occupied, so she felt a little bored.
I wonder what the protagonist is doing and when he will be back.
Suddenly, Su Xi thought of his food box still left in the kitchen, so quickly switch the screen to the kitchen.
However, seeing the yellow and green skinny vegetables in the food box Su Xi wanted to vomit a little, she looked at her bedside fragrant chicken soup, thought deeply about how this vegetable rice bran can be something that people eat?
The system sensed her mind and jumped out in time cockily: "May I ask if you want to spend 5 gold coins to buy food from the mall?"
"No, no, no." Su Xi, still upholding the principle of " never kryptonite ", said: " I will look in the kitchen first to see if there is food."
The words fell, she found a fragrant hot plum vegetable with pork in the covered stove.
Su Xi: "See, doesn't that save money?"
System: ...
Calculated your ruthlessness.
Su Xi dumped the meal in the food box into the pigpen on the right side of the kitchen yard, then fished up the fragrant hot plum vegetable with meat that was hidden here by who knows who and put it in the food box instead, then took it back and put it back into her game character's house on top of the closet.
Clapping her hands, she was very satisfied.
Time flies in the game, On Su Xi's side it was only a day's time, However, it seems to have reached the third night in this game.
The frosty chill descends, the moon rises, and the game character only then returns.
Su Xi's first reaction is to look up to see the upper left corner of the life bar, only to see that the life bar is still thirty percent, the stamina bar is again on the verge of being five percent.
Su Xi frowned.
What has he been doing? How come his knees are dirty, the bottom of his robe is all wet, and his face is frozen pale.
Of course, because of the stinginess of Su Xi, there is no way to redeem the game character's looks, and now the game character is still a small Q version of the short-armed, short-legged paper figure in front of her.
However, despite his Q appearance, he walked with a very steady and heavy step, and his demeanor was also ice-cold, so much so that there was a kind of a trance-like contrast.
After he walked in, he seemed to smell that the air didn't smell quite right, his nose twitched, his eyebrows wrinkled, and he looked toward the closet.
Su Xi observed him and saw the subtle facial expressions of the game character, her heart was simply in a trance -
This game is also too vividly done, there are a few moments almost let her not take this game character as a paper man.
Lu Huan looked frigid, walked to the closet, and took the food box down.
Today's food box seems to smell a bit wrong, the weight is also heavier than usual, but he did not care.
He casually lifted the lid of the food box and intended to pour it outside into the grass, but his expression was immediately stunned.
In the food box, there was a hot plum vegetable with meat, glistening oil, and it had a pleasant aroma.
There is also white rice underneath, just smelling it makes the person's appetite tingle.
Lu Huan's pupils froze.
The unbelievable had happened again.
The back kitchen has always sent himself bland dishes and steamed buns, how could it be that today, at the woman's special authorization, a bowl of steaming hot rice was sent?
Is he, in fact, burnt out, or is he dreaming?
Since childhood, the situation in the Ning royal palace has been very difficult.
If only it was because he's a concubine's son, he's afraid it wouldn't be so so bad to be bullied. The most important thing is that the palace has a few aunts and a few sons, but those people can at least be fed and clothed, and are not targeted as much as he is.
When he was five years old, he learned from his subordinates that King Ning treated him harshly and did not allow him to leave the palace easily, and condoned Lady Ning and her two first sons to treat him badly, for another reason.
He heard that his birth date collides with the one in the East Palace today.
The first time we met, his mother was not aware of his birth, so he didn't know when he was born. He never thought that his birth date would be a problem for His Majesty and disturb the official luck of the King of Ning.
Lu Wenxiu is just a brainless fool, not enough to fear, what he is really wary of is the smiling Lady Ning.
The back kitchen is also full of Lady Ning's minions, who, over the years, deliberately treated him with scraps of food, and on New Year's Day tauntingly reduced the number of portions, deliberately starving him.
But today's meal suddenly changed, actually turning into a normal hot dish with rice!
In the eyes of Lu Huan, it was natural that something was wrong.
Su Xi lying on the bed, her palms resting on her cheeks staring at the screen, waiting for the game character to see the steaming hot delicious braised pork with preserved vegetables, and excitedly began to move chopsticks.
but even her mouth was watering at the sight of the plum vegetable buckle meat, but the game character was still standing in place frowning?
And his face was getting colder and colder?
What are you thinking about? Move your chopsticks!
Su Xi, wanting to poke him to force him to eat quickly, saw the game character pull out a thing from his sleeves, pinched between two of his fingers, and soft Q bun face is unusually serious.
Su Xi:?
No, what are you doing pulling out a needle without eating?
This game character is really very unorthodox.
In the next second, she saw the game character lean over slightly, the silver needle probed into the food box, piercing into the braised pork with preserved vegetables.
Then he picked it up, rinsed it twice with water, and watched the color change of the silver needle.
Seeing that the silver needle color actually did not turn black, his brow wrinkled into a 川 character, a little astonished.
2
Then, he carefully stabbed the silver needle into the rice and observed the silver needle.
But it still did not turn black, he was even more puzzled.
The game character still did not let down his guard, he repeatedly stabbed the silver needle into the food box several times, extremely cautious and vigilant.
Su Xi opened her mouth, confused.
The cub, suspects that the food is poisoned?
No way, his guard is actually so heavy? This game has become far too real, right?
What other games, travel frog or something, to the game of small frogs with good food and drink kryptonite, they are not happy to rush over to eat a meal, how to this game, so the –
T/N: I'm very confused about how this is translated but the original is "你说别的什么游戏,旅行青蛙什么的,给游戏小青蛙氪了好吃好喝的,它们不都兴高采烈冲过去大吃一顿吗,怎么到了这个游戏里,这么的—")
11
Su Xi was a little confused by the reaction of the game character.
Just when she thought it was merely rigorous game programming, after the game villain had tested with a silver needle that there was no poison, he would start eating.
However, she saw the game villain suddenly pick up the food box with a frosty face and walk towards the stables outside the wood gate, looking like he wanted to find a secluded place to dump it.
Su Xi: ?
She was struck by a lightning bolt.
I had such a hard fucking time getting it, and you just dumped it for me?
The food was not poisonous nor did it contain laxatives, and Lu Huan was indeed a bit surprised, but there must be something unusual about a steaming hot meal coming from the back kitchen.
It must be that woman or Lu Wenxiu had some other intention.
He preferred to be hungry rather than to lift his chopsticks.
He carried the food box to the door and wanted to pull open the wood door.
Su Xi seeing this hurried to use her finger to hold down on the wood door on the screen: Cub, It's a shameful waste of food.
The wood door issued a creaking uneven force sound, the door frame unexpectedly seems to be somehow stuck in the wall gap, Lu Huan actually did not pull at once.
A trace of incredulity passed through his eyes.
The wind embedded the door in the wall?
Lu Huan stood firm, clasping the door frame with a violent force, he obviously hasn't fully healed from the typhoid fever, but the force is surprisingly great, and Su Xi actually failed to hold down on the screen!
The wood door was about to be broken by the two of them, one inside and one outside!
Su Xi had no choice but to remove her fingers, Lu Huan then opened the door, carrying the food box, and walked out.
He didn't forget to turn around and look at the door puzzling, but this wood door is in a state of disrepair, some abnormalities are not strange.
"..."
So, Su Xi watched as Lu Huan carried the food box, walked to the stable, and dug a hole with a shovel.
She is too vigilant of her own game villain, doesn't eat and drink themselves, how can she raise him well, they heard a few chaotic and fierce footsteps far away, interspersed with the sound of screaming "find the thief for me".
She heard it, Lu Huan naturally also heard it.
He changed his expression and seemed to realize something abruptly, his dark eyes crossed a trace of gloom, and his hands moved even faster.
But before he had time to pour the food out, the people rushed in aggressively.
He had only time to hastily put the lid on the food box and throw it in the corner of the stable before those people rushed in. Turning around with a cold expression, he looked over at them.
Lu Wenxiu was in the lead, followed by Lu Jia and Lu Yi, the chief of the back kitchen and a whole bunch of people.
The screen suddenly buzzed with a gathering of people.
The screen is as follows.
Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone
1
Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone
Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone Everyone
Only to see Lu Wenxiu, a short, Pig-like sketchy villain wearing a red cloak, arrogantly walking up to Lu Huan.
Originally it was a very overbearing walking posture, but because the sketch was too ugly, it was set off by the game character who was standing there as calm as water, with a long and distinguished figure, not moving at all, looking like a badly drawn draft.
"This young master ordered the kitchen this morning to eat braised pork with preserved vegetables, the back kitchen specially prepared, but I do not know which greedy thief dared to steal it!" Lu Wenxiu squinted and shouted: "As far as it goes, it's a hungry ghost, to steal even a dish, if we find out who that person is, wait until you're laughed at by the whole Ning Royal Palace!"
Su Xi's eyes widened in shock.
Bullshit! The dead pig's eyes and the ability to tell lies is great!
braised pork with preserved vegetables is your ghost!
She clearly saw that the food in the kitchen had been eaten, only the braised pork with preserved vegetables was not wanted and thought it was leftover, so she got it for her child.
Now Lu Wenxiu brought a group of people to come, it is clear that they are looking for trouble, taking advantage of the opportunity to find a reason to retaliate for what happened before!
In any case, Su Xi also realized that her good intentions had done a bad thing.
Just seeing how overbearing Lu Wenxiu, the group of people was, and her game villain alone.
His dirty robe still had undried snow on it, swept up by the cold wind, as if it would be torn apart at any time, his dark eyes had a few faint moments of anger, and the fist at his side was unnoticeably clenched, but he still held back from moving.
Su Xi was suddenly stabbed at the tip of her heart, and surprisingly, she felt guilty about a game character.
Lu Jia covered his ass, followed by the help: "Yes, and at that time, the two of us left the food box in the back kitchen, how come it now comes to you? You must have fetched it yourself, saw the second young master's dishes and stole it."
Lu Yi also rubbed his bruised and swollen face, and said through his teeth, "Second Young Master, your delicious food may have already gone into his stomach by now."
Lu Huan said coldly, "You all know what's going on yourselves."
As he expected, there must be a demon when things go abnormal, why else would the back kitchen suddenly send a steaming meal, it turned out that Lu Wenxiu wanted to make an issue on this matter.
A few days ago, the court examiner came to investigate, although he is a concubine son, he was also called to participate in the process, resulting in victory over the Lu Wenxiu and Lu Yu'an duo, and Lu Wenxiu lost face, after this, he always tried to find a way to pick a fight.
The day before yesterday was not enough, but today he even came up with a trick to plant the blame!
Su Xi saw the game character's stoic face, but also at the same time thought to herself, just now if not for her own blocking the door to prevent the game character from pouring out the rice, the braised pork with preserved vegetables would have been poured into the next stable, Lu Wenxiu and his foolish batch could not find any evidence, then how will they blame people?
1
Just because she-
But this game is really changing, who can think ah?
Which hot chicken programmer made it up?
(T/N: Hot chicken is Chinese internet slang for garbage)
Su Xi is a little anxious, her elbows are a little sore on the bed, but she doesn't dare to look away, in the morning she said she wouldn't be addicted to the game, but now she's like an Internet-addicted girl!
3
"Hmph, do you dare to open the food box behind you for our second young master to see?" The head chef said, "If we find it here, you will have to admit that you are a thief!"
The head chef was sure that the dish must have been stolen by Lu Yi because it was found in the kitchen that the braised pork with preserved vegetables was missing, and the bran vegetable steamed buns were scattered all over the floor, who could it be if Lu Yi had not switched them?
And even if Lu Huan did not steal, which servant stole, braised pork with preserved vegetables went missing, he could push the pot to him, and say he ate it.
Anyway, Lu Yi is only looking for a reason to kick the thorn in his side and does not care where the braised pork with preserved vegetables really went.
Lu Wenxiu glanced appreciatively at the head chef, who had found a good excuse for himself.
And Lu Huan's face sunk, a few traces of indifference floated in his dark pupils.
He had been alert enough but did not know how unthinkable things happened frequently lately, today he was burnt out and moved a step slower? Or let down his guard and actually fell into Lu Wenxiu's trap.
Seeing this look on his face, Lu Wenxiu felt more and more that the braised pork with preserved vegetables was in the food box behind him.
Now he only needs to go over and lift the box himself, he will be able to make Lu Huan, the son of a concubine who refuses to kneel down, into a thief, ruining his reputation!
Lu Wenxiu is very happy, proudly hooked his finger and asked Lu Jia to call Lu Yu'an and the other servants of the Ning Wang Mansion over.
The more people watching, the more fun it is.
...
Not long after, Lu Yu'an was invited, followed by a large number of subordinates, almost the entire Ning Royal Palace's subordinates ran over to see the action. They usually don't dare to watch the hilarity openly, but this time the second young master specially instructed them to come over.
Lu Yu'an, who is a few years older than Lu Wenxiu looked much calmer, wrinkled his brow, and spoke on stage: "What is going on? Theft in Ning royal palace is not a trivial matter, do you have any real evidence, Wenxiu?"
A group of subordinates behind whispered, pointing at Lu Huan.
3
A servant came over and whispered in Lu Wenxiu's ear, "Young master, that braised pork with preserved vegetables must be in the food box behind him, we smell it, you just expose it."
Lu Wenxiu was so proud that he said to Lu Yu'an, "I naturally have proof."
Then, he said to the people behind him, "Open your eyes wide and see who is the person in Ning Royal Palace who would steal even one of your young master's dishes! Such food-stealing behavior, even worse than beggars! If you are really hungry, you can beg this young master, why steal?"
He spoke maliciously, glancing at Lu Huan.
"Open the food box behind him for me!"
The wind was bitterly cold, and the bottom of Lu Huan's dark eyes looked like a layer of frost, he was staring at Lu Wenxiu, pursing his lips without saying a word.
The atmosphere was tense to a breaking point.
Lu Wenxiu hummed and laughed, pushed away from the head chef, personally walked to the food box, picked up the food box in front of the crowd and waved it around, deliberately slow, and then pressed his hand on it.
And at the same time -
Su Xi moved the screen.
"Wow-" Lu Wenxiu faked it so much, enough to whet the appetite of Lu Yu'an and all the underlings, before steeply lifting the lid of the food box.
He looked smug and said in a vicious voice: "Caught on the spot!"
But, the air was dead silent.
Inside the food box, where did the delicious food he said come from, it was clearly -
Cold rice steamed buns!
The servants, who swore to Lu Wenxiu that there was braised pork with preserved vegetables in the food box, were horrified - what happened? What the hell?
Why was it suddenly replaced with rice steamed buns when it was clearly there just now?
The people who were called over to see the fun were not only the servants of the Ning Royal Palace, but also some patrons and temporary residents of the Civil Court, although they all knew that there was a difference in respect between a concubine's son and the first son and that the concubine son in the Ning Royal Palace would not be doing too well, but now this situation ...
It's too bad, right?
The second young master falsely accused him for no reason?
In addition, the second young master, Lu Wenxiu, who falsely accused him seems to be a fool.
What an embarrassment. They all wanted to find a hole in the ground for Lu Wenxiu.
1
It was extremely silent for a while.
1
The staff in front of Lu Wenxiu and the head chef stared at each other with wide eyes and silence.
Lu Yu'an's expression gradually became ugly, staring at Lu Wenxiu, as if he was looking at a retard, scolded: "Wenxiu, why are you fooling around again?"
Lu Wenxiu was baffled, and only then did he realize what was going on. He put down the food box and took a look, and instantly his face turned red.
No, no, what happened, just now his own subordinates clearly said that there is the aroma of braised pork with preserved vegetables inside, but now how to turn into dry rice steamed buns inside?
In front of so many people, they jumped up and down and swore that Lu had stolen their own dishes, and now, it wasn't stolen at all?
And the audience saw that the back kitchen had so harshly treated Lu Huan?
Lu Wenxiu felt that he had become a clown all of a sudden.
1
He became angry, his neck turned red, his face turned blue and white, and he couldn't help but kick the back kitchen manager and the servant who told him that he confirmed that the braised pork with preserved vegetables was in Lu's food box twice.
"Are you idiots? Why tell this young master about something that has not been verified?"
The cook and the servant were dumbfounded and argued, "We obviously-"
"Obviously, my ass!" Lu Wenxiu's face was disgraced and he was so angry that he kicked one of them again.
The servants were embarrassed and did not dare to speak.
For a while, the scene could make one's toes curl.
Lu Huan after seeing the rice buns in the food box, his pupils fiercely shrank silently, extremely surprised, however, he did not display any change in his expression in the slightest.
And at this time, a shuffling movement came from the kitchen, a subordinate came out with the plate of braised pork with preserved vegetables, sarcastically ran over and said to the chief of the back kitchen: "Chief, look, I found it, it's in the closet where you put the materials."
The head chef was shocked: "How is that possible?"
He had just searched the back kitchen and found nothing, so he was sure it had been stolen.
What the hell!
Could it be that he was blinded by his old eyes? He didn't see it just now?
Before the words even fell, Lu Wenxiu angrily gave him a slap: "Get lost!"
The surrounding patrons who were called over to watch the fun looked at Lu Wenxiu with an indefinable gaze, the gaze through the embarrassment of wanting to laugh and not daring to laugh.
Lu Wenxiu can naturally sense that his face is like being slapped, and he felt his face burning hot.
Lu Yu An's face turned increasingly green: "Okay, stop fooling around, in the end, it' s not decent!"
"All of you disperse!" Lu Yu'an flung his sleeves and left.
Lu Wenxiu was so angry that his face was red and his neck was coarse, he turned around and pointed viciously at Lu Huan, then kicked the chief steward and intended to withdraw.
"Go!"
But just then, he didn't know what he tripped over, he screamed, the bottom of his feet rushed out, and then, in front of everyone, he fell on his face.
"Ahhhhh" his whole face smashed into the mud at the entrance of the courtyard, and when he raised his head, his nostrils were full of mud!
Finally, some subordinates could not resist covering their mouths.
Lu Wenxiu's nose was bruised and swollen, and he was so furious that he clambered up and slapped the back kitchen manager and his own subordinates several times.
"Don't you have eyes? How dare you trip me?"
His henchmen, whose faces were swollen by his slaps, were outraged and dared not speak.
...
While off-screen, Su Xi gleefully withdrew her fingers, rubbed them, smoothly brought a packet of potato chips from the bed to tear open.
This is where bad people have their own bad people grinding.
1
Su Xi completely just wanted to take a bite out of revenge for the game character, but never expected the system to fly out a message.
"Congratulations for assisting the protagonist on interpersonal relationships, gold +8, +2, +2+, 2, interpersonal relationship points +3 ..."
"Points have reached 7 points, you can choose a new corner within the Ning Royal Palace to unlock."
Damn yeah, 7 points in one go!
Then, the map appeared in front of Su Xi.
The reward message on the screen kept popping up, and Su Xi couldn't even see the game villain, so she hurriedly crossed the message away and said, "There's no rush to unlock the board first, I need to think about where to unlock it."
System: "Good."
After the message was cleared, the only thing that could be seen on the screen was that the huddle of subordinates had all dispersed. The last two young girls in rough clothes to go even turned back and gave her game villain a sympathetic look, with the words written in their eyes-
The second young master is actually stupid to unsuccessfully plant blame, and he also made trouble for the third young master.
After the crowd dispersed, the woodshed was empty, with only a cold wind whistling.
This farce ended in an extremely bizarre way.
Lu Huan walked over, bent down, picked up the food box smashed on the ground, and examined it, his brow wrinkled into a 川 character.
"..."
Not to mention the shock of Lu Wenxiu and others, even he was also incredulous, he clearly saw with his own eyes the steaming braised pork with preserved vegetables in the food box, but how did it suddenly change back to cold rice steamed buns in an instant?
If the matter of the teapot is he burnt out?
1
(T/N: it originally says 如果说茶壶一事是他烧糊涂了。)
2
The matter of the firewood door and bedding is what he did in his dream.
So it's hard not to say that such a bizarre thing is also his eyesight?
This has simply exceeded the scope of ordinary people can understand, one can not help but suspect that they are mentally insane.
Lu Huan suddenly remembered something, calmed his mind, slowly walked to the eaves, looked towards the leaking roof piece, the party did not look closely after entering the house, but saw that the remaining small piece of the roof was also somehow repaired and completed.
"..."
Lu Huan's face turned more ugly and weird.
Su Xi only saw the white bubble on top of the game character's head, a string of omitted marks ...
He tilted his head as if he was thinking about life.
