"This Dong Yong sold his body to bury his father.”
A middle-aged woman with a vegetable basket on her arm wiped her tears and said emotionally.
"Yeah, last year's flood destroyed a few of my cousin's houses, and now…he's still living in my house.”A burly young man sighed.
An old man with a clear face leaned on his walking stick and said with a sigh,"This Nian Yue, poor thing. She's everywhere.”
At this time, the onlookers were all bemoaning Dong Yong's tragic past, but no one stepped forward to help.
After all, it was enough for everyone to show sympathy. As for buying Dong Yong, it was no joke.
That would cost fifty taels of silver.
In this era, a well-to-do family of five would only spend ten to twenty taels a year.
Spending fifty taels to buy a mouth to eat, no one was a fool. Who would be willing to be such a sucker?
At this moment, Yu Qi was considering whether he should help Dong Yong tide over this crisis and increase his favorability towards the future son-in-law of the Heavenly Court.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the distance.
"Hey, what are you all gathered here for…Don't block my young master's path.”
A young manservant dressed in grey clothes was arrogantly driving the crowd away with a horsewhip in his hand.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a pale-faced youth wearing a plain white brocade robe. He had a gloomy expression on his face as he slowly walked over, surrounded by four to five young manservants.
This young man was eighteen or nineteen years old. He wore a white Confucian scarf on his head and a piece of bluish-white Lantian jade hung from his waist.
From a close distance, he had a nose that was like a hanging gallbladder, red lips, and white teeth. If it weren't for the faint greenish black aura between his eyebrows, he would definitely be a graceful and outstanding young master.
Fu Guanbao was in an extremely bad mood. No one would be in a good mood after being reprimanded by their father.
Fu Guanbao also felt wronged. It started half a month ago when he went hunting with a few friends at Bai Qingshan, which was twenty miles away from Xiangyang City.
On that rainy and foggy day, Fu Guanbao was drinking with a few familiar scholars at the Clear Tuber Pavilion.
One of the scholars, Liu Zhen, suggested that the group of people climb the cypress green mountain to enjoy the rain.
Although Fu Guanbao was ignorant and incompetent, walking chickens and dogs all day long, he still yearned for such elegant things like singing flowers and playing with the moon and searching for plum blossoms on a boat at night.
Therefore, when he heard this proposal, he generously agreed.
After a round of sightseeing on Mount Baiqing, everyone recited poems, drank wine, and made merry. It could be said that they were very happy.
However, on the way back, Fu Guanbao and his companions were riding on the mountain road when they met a crying girl.
This woman was called Peach Blossom. She was gentle and graceful, bright and moving.
He claimed to be from Xinye County and came to Xiangyang to seek his family. However, he could not find his family. In his despair, he wanted to die in Bai Qingshan.
Fu Guanbao saw that this woman was beautiful and had long been tempted. Coupled with his companions 'urging, he took this woman back home and settled her down.
He didn't expect that this arrangement would cause unrest in the house.
This woman and Fu Guanbao spent their days and nights together. They were both young men and women. Naturally, some indescribable things happened.
However, this was nothing, but Fu Guanbao knew what was good for him. He indulged in the gentleness all day long and didn't even go to the academy where he had to fish for three days and dry his net for two days.
Fu Guanbao looked like he had been hollowed out by wine and sex all day, but he angered Master Fu. He secretly sent his servants to Xinye County to investigate. He just reported today that there was no woman in Xinye County.
Master Fu called Fu Guanbao over and scolded him. He scolded him until he was bleeding and ordered Fu Guanbao to chase away the peach blossoms as soon as possible.
Fu Guanbao returned to the backyard and listened to the sorrowful cries of the peach blossoms. After comforting them with kind words and warmth, he came out to relax.
At this moment, he saw people surrounding him and shouted,"Li Da, what's all the noise in front?”
When everyone saw that it was the young master of the Fu family, they all chuckled and made way.
Fu Guanbao walked up and saw Dong Yong kneeling on the ground and looking at the wooden token on the white birch bark. He suddenly had the thought of teasing him and said mockingly,"Is this…a big show?"
Fu Guanbao walked forward and grabbed the wooden token. He knocked on it and said,""Tsk tsk, selling your body to bury your father and you want fifty taels of silver? Pah…"
"Even if it's five taels, do you think it's worth it?”Fu Guanbao was used to being arrogant. In addition to being reprimanded by his father today, he was in a depressed mood and wanted to find some fun with Dong Yong.
Qiong-Hua Palace
In the Seven Immortals Pavilion, the Little Seventh Princess, who was wearing a long purple dress, was sitting on a swing woven from wisteria and thorny orchids. Her delicate nose was slightly wrinkled, and she was bored to death as she played with a strand of her beautiful hair.
At this moment, a tall figure in a green palace dress walked over from not far away. The fifth princess Qing `er smiled sweetly,"Seventh Sister, why are you so unhappy? Aren't you going to the Flower Cub with the other sisters?”
The Little Seventh Princess sighed and said,""I wonder how big sister is doing after descending to the mortal world. Before she left, she still had a mysterious look on her face.”
Princess Qing `er guessed with uncertainty,"Perhaps Mother told her something.”
The Little Seventh Princess asked excitedly,"Fifth sister, what do you think the mortal world is like? Isn't it even more fun than the celestial heavens?”
"How would I know? I've never been there before." Princess Qing `er smiled.”
Princess Qing `er seemed to have thought of something. Her eyes curved into crescents as she spoke,"Oh right, I just saw Fourth Sister secretly using the Water Mirror Technique to spy on the mortal world. Why don't we go and take a look?”
When the Little Seventh Princess heard this, she quickly jumped up from the swing and turned into a fragrant wind, running towards the Fourth Princess.
Fourth Princess Lu-er and Second Princess Cheng-er were currently seated beside a stone table. On the stone table, a pot of tea was boiling on top of a red clay stove.
The teapot mouth was surrounded by white gas, and the fragrance was lingering. It was the Misty Immortal Tea produced in the North of He Tongtian in the Qing Ming Dynasty.
In the void not far away from the two women, a transparent circular mirror was reflecting the scenes of the mortal world.
The two women's hands were as white as frost. They picked up a teacup, took a sip, and put down the teacup. The Fourth Princess clicked her tongue and sighed,"This Dong Yong is really filial."”
Princess Cheng 'er glared at him and said coldly,""This Young Master Fu is really despicable.”
The two women sipped tea and sighed at the water mirror. If Yu Qi was here, he would probably sigh with emotion. The origin of the bullet screen was not without traces.
When the two girls saw the Seventh Princess and Princess Qing `er walking over, they smiled and greeted,"Little sisters, come over quickly. There's something new here.”
"What is Young Master Fu trying to do?" Princess Qing `er frowned as she mumbled to herself.
