43. The Need for a Family 4
"Not from your family? Could it be that you are still a human trafficker?"
No wonder Yun Qingzhi thinks this way, the main reason is that Wang Zhaodi's attitude towards Gu Ancheng is really bad. These days, there are only two possibilities for raising children who are not his own. The first one is the human trafficker that Yun Qingzhi just mentioned.
Another option is adoption.
However, Wang Zhaodi has nothing to do with adoption.
This also caused Yun Qingzhi's first thought to be that Wang Zhaodi was a personal trafficker.
"No, I am not."
Wang Zhaodi saw that Yun Qingzhi was looking at her with increasingly unkind eyes, and hurriedly explained.
"This little brat, no, Gu Ancheng was abandoned by his parents and thrown into my house, not abducted by me."
"You have such good intentions?" Yun Qingzhi thought it was impossible.
Seeing that Yun Qingzhi didn't believe it, Wang Zhaodi hurriedly said: "We have a custom where if you have been married for a long time and have no children, you can raise a child by your side. This will attract children, so I will raise him."
"Yeah, yeah."
Little Fatty nodded repeatedly, indicating that what Wang Zhaodi said was true, "He is really not from my family, he is just an outsider who eats for free."
"I'm not----"
I don’t know why, but I usually feel that such an argument is not painful or itchy, it doesn’t mean anything at all.
Now that he heard Wang Zhaodi and Pang Dun say this, Gu Ancheng felt that such words were extremely harsh.
Gu Ancheng raised his eyes and glanced at Yun Qingzhi, who was wearing gorgeous brocade clothes, and then looked at the linen he was wearing. He even had a patch on his arm. Compared with Yun Qingzhi, they were just a comparison of clouds and mud.
She is a cloud, and he is mud.
He didn't want to show such a bad side in front of her.
"I'm not a freeloader. My parents give you money."
"Little, little bastard, what are you talking about? I didn't take any money."
Wang Zhaodi looked away guiltily for a moment, and then retorted loudly.
"I heard everything," Gu Ancheng said with a frown, "I heard what you said to that man. You said that the small box of money my parents gave you is almost gone. If I wait until all the money is spent, I
If my parents haven't picked me up yet, you will sell me to the palace in exchange for some money."
"A small box of silver, sold to the palace?"
Yun Qingzhi really didn't expect that the human heart could be so ugly.
Although she was born in a famous family and had been well-fed and well-fed since she was a child, this does not mean that she does not know how much wealth a small box of silver is to an ordinary family.
A small box of money will last more than three lifetimes if you live frugally. How much does it cost to raise a child? You don’t even need to spend half of the money.
And she saw that what Gu Ancheng was wearing was simply linen, which had been sewn and mended many times, and the clothes were even patched. On the other hand, Wang Zhaodi's own son's clothes cost at least five taels of silver.
You can imagine who exactly this money was spent on.
In this way, Wang Zhaodi spent other people's money on raising children, and also planned to send other people's children to the palace in exchange for a sum of money.
What could a boy be sent to the palace for?
It's not just sending him to the palace to be a eunuch, which means wiping out his descendants!!!
Even if you have lost your conscience to this extent, you are not afraid of being struck by lightning one day!!!
"Well, everything I said is true."
Gu Ancheng was worried that Yun Qingzhi wouldn't believe what he said, so he raised his finger and swore, "If I tell even half a lie, I will be unlucky for the rest of my life!!!"
"You don't have to say this, I believe you."
Yun Qingzhi pulled the person to her side, bent down and said, "Ancheng, are you willing to come with me? My home will be your home from now on?"
Yun Qingzhi felt that Gu Ancheng could not continue to follow Wang Zhaodi. If he continued like this, there was no chance that Gu Ancheng would really be sent to the palace by Wang Zhaodi that day. She did not want to see a familiar person in the palace who became a eunuch.
, that feels so strange.
"Can, is it okay?"
Gu Ancheng tweaked the corners of his clothes and asked anxiously.
Only he himself knows how much he wants to agree directly, but he doesn't dare, he is not qualified, and he is not worthy.
Although Wang Zhaodi is hateful, one thing has always been true. He was abandoned by his parents. Even his parents did not want him. How could a good person like her like him?
"Of course," Yun Qingzhi noticed Gu Ancheng's uneasiness, took his hand, and said softly, "I have two brothers, and I am the youngest in the family, so I have always expected myself
Maybe I can have a younger brother or younger sister."
"If you can come to my house, then I will have a brother in the future."
The fate between people is wonderful. Although she only spent less than a day with Gu Ancheng, she really liked the thin but very strong boy in front of her.
His life was full of ups and downs, but he was not knocked down by the suffering of reality. The world treated each other with pain, but he lived in the present by relying on his strength and resilience.
He always makes Yun Qingzhi think of her past life.
Obviously when she looked at her past life, she didn't have much emotion in her heart, but when she saw Gu Ancheng like this, Yun Qingzhi's heart couldn't help but tremble, and suddenly there was a bitterness that she felt in her heart.
She wanted to help Gu Ancheng, help him escape from the wolf den of Wang Zhaodi, and give Gu Ancheng a brand new future.
"Ding, please host adopt Gu Ancheng and cultivate him into a talent. The mission reward is a book of Wanxiangpu. If you adopt Gu Ancheng, you can get the reward. If you fail to cultivate him into a talent, you will take back the reward."
Perhaps sensing Yun Qingzhi's thoughts, the system came out and gave such a task.
"Wanxiangpu?"
Yun Qingzhi asked doubtfully in her heart, "What is this?"
This is the first time that the system has given out other things as rewards. Generally, the tasks awarded are rewards such as elixirs.
From before to now, she has only completed one task and obtained two antidote pills, but she can't use them yet, and she still lets the system keep them.
"Wanxiangpu covers the production process of all spices in the world, such as the fragrant powders you use daily for aromatherapy, to the spices used for meals, as well as the incense used in sacrifices, and the incense used by criminals.
As for incense, as long as it has something to do with incense, Wanxiangpu has a detailed production process."
Systematically and carefully explain the functions and benefits of Yunqingzhi and Wanxiangpu.
