Her tone was calm, but there was an undeniable meaning in it.
Bai Yu was stunned for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully.
Bai Yu's home cannot be called a home. In fact, it is just a ruined temple. Apart from a place to shelter from the wind and rain, there is no furniture around, not even a place to sit.
The white jade boy was a little embarrassed. He held the corner of his clothes and hesitated: "My dear friend, this is my home..."
Ying Zhuyue nodded, looked around, and said, "Take me to see your mother." She didn't look down on Bai Yu because her family was in ruins. In her previous life, she and the beggar even snatched food together.
A rag was opened, and there was a small bed inside, with thatched grass underneath. Lying on it was a middle-aged woman, her face was sallow, and her eyes were dull.
The first time Ying Zhuyue saw her, his heart sank.
"Mom! I'm rich!" Bai Yu half-knelt in front of the woman's bed, opened the package, her face was filled with white money.
The middle-aged woman took a breath, looked a little anxious, and asked: "Yu'er, where did you get the money?"
Bai Yu hesitated for a moment and didn't know what to say. His mother had warned him not to gamble. He wanted to say that he got the money from gambling, but he didn't dare to say it.
Ying Zhuyue walked silently to the woman's bed and said with a smile: "Madam, this money belongs to me. Don't worry, I got all this money legitimately. It was not stolen or robbed."
"Yes, mother, these money belong to my benefactor." Bai Yu glanced at Ying Zhuyue gratefully and said.
The woman looked at Ying Zhuyue, and saw that her skin was as white as snow, her starry eyes were bright, and her body was extraordinary, which gave people an inexplicable sense of trust. She coughed and said gratefully: "How does this happen?"
I tried to stand up and say thank you, but I couldn't sit up after several attempts.
Ying Zhuyue hurriedly supported her and said: "I think Mr. Ling is smart and wants him to be my book boy. This money is my deposit."
But the middle-aged woman shook her head, with tears in her eyes, and said: "My health is no longer good. No matter how good you are, you can't cure my disease. It's just that I can't worry about Yu'er. After I leave, he will
There is no one to support her."
Ying Zhuyue remained silent, as the woman's words were all true. She had become ill due to overwork, and her body had already given out. If she hadn't been able to hold on with strength, she might have died a long time ago. Even though she was pregnant with a rare treasure, there was nothing she could do.
When Bai Yu heard this, she said anxiously: "Mom, what nonsense are you talking about? My benefactor has great supernatural powers and he will definitely be able to cure your illness."
Ying Zhuyue was silent for a while and said softly: "I'm sorry..."
Although Ying Zhuyue's words were soft, Bai Yu could hear them clearly. He looked at Ying Zhuyue in disbelief, shook his head desperately, and said with tears: "My dear friend, you lied to me, you lied to me!"
Ying Zhuyue stood aside without saying a word. If she had the tenth level of acquired cultivation now, she would definitely be able to save this woman's life. However, she is no more than a Xuan Gang Mirror now, so even if she had the will, she would be powerless.
The woman gave a wry smile and said weakly: "Yu'er, don't blame your benefactor, I know my illness. Come here, mother has something to say to you."
Bai Yu's face was covered with tears, and he knelt beside the woman's bed. The woman held his hand and said, "Yu'er, mother is dying. If I hadn't been unable to let go of you, she might have passed away long ago.
Mom is worthless and can't give you a good life. You have suffered all these years. You are too straight-tempered. You must learn to be flexible in the future. Don't always be stubborn and suffer losses easily. Your benefactor accepted you as a book boy, and now Mom is also
I can feel at ease now. From now on, if I follow my benefactor, I must serve him wholeheartedly.
Live well, and my mother will be able to rest in peace even if she watches you under the Nine Springs."
