Otherwise, even if he practices in this plane for hundreds of years, I am afraid that the peak he can reach will only be the peak of human beings.
You can never take that step.
With this first strand of spiritual energy, there will be the second and third strands of spiritual energy...
Of course, this does not mean that the aura generated later is not important, but the symbolic meaning of the first aura is even greater.
Fang Xiaoyue didn't even visit the old house that was sold to pay respects, but went directly to her sister Fang Xiuyun's house.
This is a wooden house located on an alley, with dilapidated and decayed wooden walls and broken tiles, giving it a shaky look.
Fang Xiaoyue recalled her memories.
As a wealthy family in Donglin County, the Fang family would definitely not choose to settle down in a poor place when marrying off their daughter.
Brother-in-law Li Zaixing said that he used to live in a wealthy family in Donglin County. His father was also a businessman, and he and Fang Datong were rare friends.
Therefore, when they were just a few years old, Fang Datong and his father Li arranged a baby marriage for the little children.
The baby kisses here are not like the baby kisses in Fang Xiaoyue's original world in the 21st century, which were just a joke.
Here, the bride-to-be is also married by a matchmaker, and she has to issue a marriage certificate, go through six rites, and give a betrothal gift.
To put it simply, except for the last two steps, asking for a date to welcome the bride, everything else was done.
To put it bluntly, Fang Xiuyun has been Li Zaixing's fiancée since she was a few years old, and she waited until she reached the age to take the last two steps.
But by the time Fang Xiuyun got married at the age of sixteen, the Li family had already declined.
Fang Datong was still very kind and righteous, even though he was heartbroken for his daughter, he still married his daughter.
Unfortunately, as far as Fang Xiaoyue knew, Li Zaixing was really not a business person. Even though Fang Xiuyun brought a lot of dowry, Li Zaixing still failed to revive the family business.
So that we ended up in this situation now.
I moved to such a shabby place to live.
Fang Xiaoyue stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Not long after, the door opened, and a child of about seven or eight years old stuck his head out. He looked at the beggar in front of him curiously and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
This should be my sister’s second son?
Fang Xiaoyue has some impressions in her memory. She remembers that when the child was born, the Fang family had not been ruined by him, so he went to accept the gift.
"Are you Li Cunmang? I am your uncle."
Fang Xiaoyue smiled and took out a few pieces of maltose from her pocket and handed them to Li Cunmang.
It could be seen that Li Cunmang had a good tutor. Although there was a kind of desire in his eyes, he did not take the maltose. Instead, he turned towards the yard and shouted: "Mother! Mother! There is a beggar who claims to be my uncle."
!”
Fang Xiaoyue couldn't help but rub his ears. This kid was really good at practicing the Buddhist lion's roar. His voice was so loud that it made his ears buzz.
Kick, kick, kick, a series of trotting sounds came, and then, a pretty face in her late twenties, smiling and crying appeared in front of Fang Xiaoyue.
Well, she's my sister, that's right.
Although she is over thirty years old and her life is difficult, none of this has diminished Fang Xiuyun's beauty.
Just by looking at her face, everyone would believe her if she was said to be in her twenties.
Of course, this also caused Fang Xiuyun's bad luck.
When she saw the beggar in front of her, Fang Xiuyun recognized her younger brother at the first sight, and cried loudly while holding Fang Xiaoyue who was covered in stinky body.
The reason is very simple, she only has such a younger brother. Even though this younger brother has lost all his family business and moved away from home, ignoring her sister, he is still connected by blood. He is still her younger brother.
It’s about family ties, needless to say.
"Look at you, why are you like this?!"
After some emotional venting, Fang Xiuyun brought Fang Xiaoyue into her home and started nagging her.
After Fang Xiuyun heated up hot water, Fang Xiaoyue took a quick bath and borrowed her brother-in-law's razor to trim her overgrown hair.
Looking at the energetic Fang Xiaoyue, Fang Xiuyun couldn't help but smile.
This is my younger brother who is handsome, charming, and highly talented in literature.
Near noon, the elder sister was busy in the kitchen. Fang Xiaoyue came to the yard refreshed and saw Li Cunmang hiding in the corner of the yard crying.
Li Cunmang was beaten up by his mother for calling his uncle a beggar.
I am feeling sad at this time.
Fang Xiaoyue stepped forward with a smile, took out the maltose, and made him laugh.
Later, he learned about the situation of his sister's family from Li Cunmang.
My brother-in-law, Li Zaixing, comes from a merchant family. He is literate and numerate, and is working as an accountant in a certain business firm.
In addition to taking care of the housework and cooking, my sister also takes on some laundry work.
The eldest son of the family, Li Chizhang, is eleven years old and studying in a private school.
He is the hope of the whole family. Everyone hopes that he can be admitted to the scholar examination before the age of eighteen, and then to be admitted to the imperial examination and Jinshi, just like his uncle, so that the whole family can get rid of the current situation.
As for the second son Li Cunmang in front of him, when talking about himself, he hesitated and was very vague.
But Fang Xiaoyue also understands that no one is perfect and no flower is completely red.
This Li Cunmang is eight years old and has not yet gone to private school. Either his family has no money to support another scholar, or he is not good at studying and is not the material.
Children also know shame.
Especially in front of his uncle Wenquxing, who had won the top prize and entered the Hanlin Academy, Li Cunmang felt like he wanted to burrow underground when he talked about his studies.
Fang Xiaoyue did not catch the child.
He finally figured it out. This child liked to dance with guns and sticks. There were many children's toys, wooden sticks and knives lying in the corner of the yard.
As far as the current situation is concerned, the Li family seems to be barely able to support itself.
But in fact, Fang Xiaoyue only knew some scattered information from Li Cunmang's mouth, and knew that the Li family was really having a hard time.
By noon, Li Zaixing came back with his eldest son Li Chizhang, who was in private school.
In front of his brother-in-law Fang Xiaoyue, Li Zaixing could not act like a brother-in-law at all.
Although this brother-in-law had previously accomplished a feat of ruining the family fortune and was much more powerful than him, Li Zaixing also knew that he was a prodigy, Wenquxing, and a master of the Hanlin Academy!
Therefore, Li Zaixing, who is quite handsome and pretty, is quite reserved in front of Fang Xiaoyue.
As for his eldest son Li Chizhang, I don't know if it was because his family had given him too many expectations or something, but he looked quite young and mature.
Even when he saluted his uncle, he was polite and precise, like an old scholar, which made Fang Xiaoyue feel dumbfounded.
During lunch, Fang Xiuyun took some food to the backyard.
Only then did Fang Xiaoyue learn that although Li Zaixing's old mother was still alive, she had been paralyzed for many years and suffered from serious illnesses. She spent a lot of money on medical treatment and medication every year.
This also brought a heavy burden to the family.
But these were all fine in Fang Xiaoyue's eyes, but he didn't understand why the Li family ended up in that situation.
