The world is broken, the cubs mend it
Chapter 98: Palm Seal: My Dad is a Good Man
"I told you there are no more. Where can I find your pills?"
007 pushed the aluminum foil plate in front of him with his claws, and only a green capsule was left inside.
It can only exchange for a few medicines, and according to the rules, the items exchanged with points can only be used on the host.
If it wasn't for the fear that something might happen to the target and affect the progress, it wouldn't have given the medicine to Pei Zhiyan.
"Can't you exchange a little more?"
Yuanyuan pouted and asked unwillingly, she didn't know where the points the rabbit was talking about were.
"cannot…"
Completing a mission in a world only gives her 100 points, and she has to redeem them for the qualification to obtain a perfect next life, so she can't spend them casually like this.
"Bunny, please help!"
"No help, Lululu..."
007 suddenly turned his head and stuck out his tongue at her, making her scream in a childish tone.
It feels that after following its little host for so long, it has become a little childish.
The entire spring was spent in the small world of Wangyue Tower. Many people in the capital were infected with the disease, but fortunately some of them survived.
Yuanyuan got her wish and left the palace in a carriage. She followed her father to the suburbs to fly kites and then went to the temple to pray for amulets.
"Daddy, why are you wearing a hat? Don't you feel stuffy?"
“Not boring…”
Pei Zhiyan held her hand and slowly walked down the stairs. Children like lively and crowded places.
But wherever he appeared, no one could laugh. She covered her face and hair with a veil, and only then did the children want to play with her.
"Daddy, it doesn't matter if no one talks to me, just don't keep yourself down."
Rather than whether there are children willing to play with her, Yuanyuan cares more about whether her daddy is happy or sad.
She knew that everyone was afraid of her father, but she would not dislike her father less because of this.
"Yeah, not boring."
Pei Zhiyan looked down through the gap in the veil that was blown open by the wind. In the distance, there were mountains all around, and the golden sunset was falling between the mountains, which was more beautiful than any painting.
He thought that if he could get away with his revenge, it would be nice to take his children to a rural area and live a leisurely life.
"Dad, have you taken your revenge?"
Yuanyuan jumped down the stairs one step at a time, occasionally kicking the pebbles on the stairs.
"almost…"
Pei Zhiyan calculated that there were not many homes left. If it weren't for the plague, according to his original plan, he should have taken revenge and committed suicide to be with his family.
He had always been thinking about how to escape with his child after taking revenge, and he came up with several plans, but none of them were comprehensive enough.
"Once Daddy has avenged himself, don't do anything dangerous again."
Yuanyuan was also very happy to hear this. This way, the next time her father went out, she wouldn't have to worry about him not coming back.
The summer wind blowing on the ridges of the fields felt cool on my body. In front of me, an old man who looked frail was carrying two large bundles of rice. He lost his balance and fell headfirst into the rice field beside him.
The little guy ran over with his short legs and tried to help the old man up, but he couldn't.
"Daddy!"
"..."
Pei Zhiyan looked at her pleading eyes, reached out and easily pulled the old man out of the field.
"Thank you!"
The old man patted the dirt off his body. Half of his calf was stuck in the mud, leaving several cuts on it from the rice stubble.
Seeing that he was still struggling to carry the rice, Pei Zhiyan stepped forward to help him.
The child is kind-hearted, and even if he doesn't take the initiative to help, the little ones will ask him for help.
"Thank you, young man!"
The old man couldn't see his face through the gauze, so he kept thanking him excitedly and led the way with his feet tiptoed.
"Grandpa, why are you carrying so much rice at once? You won't fall if you carry less."
Yuanyuan followed him happily, grabbing a handful of flowers picked from the edge of the field. The roots of one of the flowers tasted sweet in her mouth.
"Alas..." The old man sighed and said, "Taxes are getting heavier every year. If we don't do more, we might not even have enough to eat."
"I'll give you food!"
Yuanyuan took out a piece of cake wrapped in oil paper from her small purse and gave it to him. This was what she brought with her when she went out in the morning, and there was still one piece left that she hadn't finished.
The cute and generous appearance of the little guy made the old man's frown relax a little, and he recalled things from his youth.
He served as a soldier when he was young and later returned to his hometown after being injured. Now his wife and son have passed away one after another, and he is the only one left at home.
"General Pei was a wise and brave man, but unfortunately he was framed. Fortunately, he was cleared of the charges, but his son... that's all... let's not talk about it."
When talking about General Pei's son, he shook his head repeatedly. Having lived for most of his life, there are some things that he can see clearly but cannot explain clearly.
"..."
Pei Zhiyan's gaze stayed on him for a moment and then moved away. When he heard his father's name, he felt a different mood.
If my father were still alive, he would probably think that he was vicious and cruel, and brought disgrace to the Pei family.
"What happened to his son?"
Yuanyuan knew that he was talking about her grandfather. Her father had explained many things to her very clearly.
My grandfather died on the battlefield fighting for his country. He was a great hero.
My great aunt was also a heroine, but unfortunately she died miserably. She and my great-grandfather, as well as the entire Pei family, died on a snowy winter day.
Just as my father said, "Thick ice cannot bury the bones of a loyal general, and deep snow cannot expose the injustice of a loyal minister."
"His son is the eunuch who is now the regent. If General Pei knew that his son was like this, he would probably feel ashamed in his grave."
The old man spoke with a hunched back and coughed a few times. If General Pei were still alive, he would definitely hope for peace in the world.
"No, parents won't dislike their children, just like children won't dislike their parents."
Yuanyuan retorted seriously that Dad was doing this to avenge his family and Grandpa would definitely not hate him.
"Little kid, you are still young. When you experience more, you won't feel that way anymore!"
The old man didn't think much about it and just laughed hoarsely for a while. Let's not talk about this matter for now. There are many cases in this world where fathers and sons become enemies.
"..."
Pei Zhiyan couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips as he looked at the child's tiny figure. Although it was just words of comfort, he felt happy from the bottom of his heart.
Around the curved ridge is the old man's residence, a house made of adobe and thatch, with two native chickens, one male and one female, raised in the yard.
Pei Zhiyan took off the burden on his shoulders and piled the rice together with what he had carried before.
Before leaving, the old man gave them a small fish, which was a rice fish from his own rice field. It was not big but the meat was tender.
"Thank you, young man. Thanks to you. There are not many kind-hearted people these days."
He stood in the yard and thanked the two again. The little kid suddenly turned his head and smiled at him, saying, "My dad is a very good man."
After walking for a while, Pei Zhiyan smiled helplessly at her and said, "Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue when you say this?"
"I'm telling the truth. Dad just helped others."
When Yuanyuan was tired of walking, she opened her arms and asked him to hold her. Now she is four years old, has grown a lot taller, and has become more and more lovely with her fair and tender skin.
