When Tian Er and his wife appeared in front of Qin Liuxi again, it was already the second day, and they knelt in front of her.
"This is a choice to leave." Qin Liuxi looked at the faces of the two of them, and there was a bright future, and their fortunes were no longer as bleak and bleak as they were before yesterday.
Tian Er smiled bitterly and said: "Master is right, I am indeed not a biological child of the Tian family."
"I'm not a parent, but I've been kind to you in raising you. It's also a matter of cause and effect. This cause and effect is over. From now on, you will no longer owe each other. Whether you are rich or poor is everyone's destiny." Qin Liuxi said calmly.
.
Mrs. Tian said: "Master, the money we paid for selling ourselves was given to the Tian family. Is this considered a settlement?"
"nature."
When Mrs. Tian heard this, she looked at Tian Er and said, "You have heard it. If you give them this money, you and the Tian family will no longer owe each other."
Although it was all staged and staged, the Tian family was ruthless and cruel. Not only did they refuse to give money to save people, they even wanted to steal the money from selling themselves. It was a lie that they didn't care.
But now that I hear that we can settle the cause and effect with money, and we don't owe anything to each other, that care seems to have been brushed away.
"We don't owe each other, okay." Tian Er wiped his nose and pursed his lips.
Yu Changkong clasped his hands and said, "Uncle Qian, please return the body deed to them."
The couple was stunned for a moment, then blushed and said, "Master, this contract has been signed, and we are willing to serve him as our master and work for him."
Mrs. Tian could see that a god like Yu Changkong was not qualified to be a slave or a maid, they just followed him with a shy face.
Yu Changkong said: "There is no shortage of servants around me."
Tian Er's face turned even redder and he said, "But, but, we don't have any money to return to the Young Master."
The thirty taels for selling oneself were paid by Uncle Qian in real money. Even the deed was witnessed and signed by a middle-aged person, so it can be said to be real. Now that Yu Changkong doesn't want them, they can't afford to pay back the money for selling oneself.
When they left Tian's house, they just packed up two small bags and left. It could be said that they left the house clean and didn't take any more threads. Tian's family wouldn't let them take it.
"Consider the silver as something I lent to you, and I'll give you another twenty taels." Yu Changkong signaled to Uncle Qian, who took the deed, an ingot of gold, and ten taels of broken silver, put it in a cloth bag and handed it over.
passed.
"Thirty taels will pull you out of the mud. Twenty taels will give you the capital to live and settle down. Whether you can stand up depends on you." Yu Changkong's tone was cool and he said calmly: "When you walk out of this door, remember, if
If you fail, don't blame the master for giving you advice yesterday, because it is all your own choice. In the same way, whether your life will be miserable or difficult in the future is your own problem, no more so than that of others."
Qin Liuxi is a Taoist man with an open-minded nature, so he may not care about these things, but he knows that human nature is selfish, and these words are just ugly words.
Qin Liuxi raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yu Changkong.
"Young master and master, don't worry. Although we are from farmers, we still know what's good and what's wrong, and we know that we shouldn't be ungrateful. We won't dare to blame you two for what happens in the future." The two of them knelt down tremblingly and said, "Sir,
You don't want us to return these thirty taels now, we are already very grateful, how dare we ask for the young master's money again?"
Twenty taels, even the Tian family could not save these twenty taels in a year, but this noble young master lent it to them.
He said it was a loan, but in fact it was almost the same as a gift. After all, he didn't even ask for an IOU, and the other party didn't care whether they would return it or not.
"You have to leave your home, and you have to be far away from your homeland. You are penniless and it is difficult to move. Moreover, winter is coming soon." Yu Changkong continued: "These are fifty taels in total. If you succeed in the future, I will ask you to do it ten times.
We will even give you a hundred times the amount to make sesame oil for Qingping Temple. Of course, this is not mandatory, it all depends on your wishes."
He took into account what Qin Liuxi said that they would have a son, and if he raised that child, he would be a blessing to the country.
Whatever she wanted, he was willing to help.
Twenty taels, if you save a little more, a family of three can always survive. No matter how much you give, it's not impossible, but he also knows that people's hearts are hard to fill. No matter how much you give, it will only make the other party feel that it is too easy, and they will not know how to cherish it.
He doesn't want to try this kind of human nature.
Madam Tian immediately said: "I, Chen Fang, dare to make great ambitions. If I succeed in the future and have the confidence, I will repay the sesame oil a hundred times, otherwise I will not..."
"Hey, hey, it doesn't have to be like this." Qin Liuxi stopped what she was about to say with a smile, and said: "It's not necessarily because of Qing Ping's view. If you do good deeds from now on, it will be a great good deed. Of course, if you treat me as Qing Ping's
In the name of being a believer in Guan, it also invisibly accumulates merit for me in Qingping Guan."
Lady Tian and Tian Er looked at each other and said, "We must follow what the master said."
"Luck lies in the east. If you go east, the sun will rise in the east and your wishes will come true."
Madam Tian's heart moved: "Does Master mean that the two of us can..."
"The secrets of heaven must not be leaked." Qin Liuxi smiled lightly and gave you this sentence: "But do good things and don't ask about the future."
She sent two more peace charms over: "Master Patriarch will bless you with success, let's set off now."
The two of them took it, kowtowed to several people, and said: "The kindness of the master and the young master will be kept in our hearts. In the future, when we take root, we will set up longevity tablets for the two of us."
After saying this, they turned around and left.
After leaving Li City, the two of them walked eastward. Ten days later, when they passed by a mountain forest called Wanlipo, they suddenly heard a faint sound of babies crying. They followed the sound and saw a baby lying under a tree.
A newborn baby boy whose umbilical cord had not even been cut was wearing a pair of women's trousers that were too tight and haphazardly draped over his body. His whole body was turning purple from the cold, and he was crying almost silently.
Next to him was a woman in ragged clothes, unkempt hair, and a pool of blood on her naked lower body. She had been dead for a long time.
She must have died after giving birth to the child.
"Oh my God, this poor thing." Mrs. Tian hugged the baby, glanced at the woman, and felt great grief. She bit off the umbilical cord without thinking, took out warm clothes from the bag and wrapped the baby.
He let Tian Er hold him, then took out his own clothes and put them on for the woman.
"Erlang, dig a hole to bury her." Mrs. Tian asked Tian Er to dig a hole, bury her on the spot, and set up a monument without words.
"Although I don't know your surname, please don't worry, we will treat him as our own son and educate him with all our heart." Mrs. Tian and Tian Er held the child and kowtowed in front of the monument.
The sun rises in the east, and the morning light shines softly into the forest.
The two looked at each other, then looked at the frail and thin child in their arms. Madam Tian put the peace charm given by Qin Liuxi on the child's chest and said: "Master is really amazing, Erlang, we call him Donglin
How? Tian Donglin."
"good."
When the sun rises in the east, a son comes, born to moisten the soil and water.
