Gan Yu, Do You Like Such a Mother?

"Good... so amazing!" Xiao Ningguang couldn't care less about saving her life. She touched her feet and saw that the wound had completely disappeared, not even leaving a shallow scar. She couldn't help asking: "It's completely healed, you... who the hell are you?"

"I... I'm just a passing guest." Qi Lin stretched out a hand behind his back, pulled out a glass lily as if by magic, and said with a smile, "Take it without asking, it's a thief. I wanted to buy this glazed lily in your cargo load, so I came here. However, how did you get this glazed lily? If it was picked at Yujing Terrace, it would be stolen goods."

"That's not it!" Ning Guang shook his head quickly, and said: "I found those goods with great difficulty. I picked this glazed lily on a peak in Tianheng Mountain, but... there is no People trust me."

No wonder, although the laws of Liyue Port only protect the glazed lilies in Yujingtai, in the minds of the people of Liyue, this kind of flower has long been extinct outside of Yujingtai, and no one will buy it behind their backs. Risk of stolen goods, go buy this glazed lily.

"I believe you," but Qi Lin nodded and said, "Since it was picked on Tianheng, it is not considered stolen goods. Tell me, how much is it?"

Xiao Ningguang thought for a while, then cautiously stretched out a finger, and asked, "One... a thousand moras?"

This price is actually very cheap. After all, a table of slightly more expensive meals costs tens of thousands of moras. Even if inflation is counted, a thousand moras is not too much.

Unexpectedly, Qi Lin shook his head and said, "This price is wrong."

"Sure enough, do you also think it's too expensive?" Xiao Ningguang sighed and said, "Then...five hundred moras?"

"The price is still not right." Qi Lin continued to shake his head.

"Then you say how much is appropriate!" Xiao Ningguang's cheeks puffed up slightly, and said, "Why don't I send you off, and treat it as a reward for my treatment." Qi Lin's face suddenly showed With a smirk, he said: "Miss Ningguang, you can't be a businessman like this..."

"Wait..." Xiao Ningguang suddenly showed a suspicious expression on his face: "How do you know my name?"

"I... I heard you talking to yourself just now," Qi Lin turned his head and immediately reacted, changing the subject: "It's not important, what's important is that if you don't even believe in the product value, how can it be sold at a good price?"

"Then what do you think, this glazed lily..." Xiao Ningguang asked tentatively, "How much can it sell for?"

Qi Lin stretched out a finger and said with a smile, "One Mora."

"Isn't that cheaper?" Xiao Ningguang said angrily, "You're not here to tease me, are you?"

"I mean, with your current appearance, not to mention this glazed lily, even if it is a real treasure, it can't be sold at a good price," Qi Lin stretched out a hand towards Xiao Ningguang, with a slightly smug expression on his face. Unfathomable expression: "Come with me, I will teach you how to become a real businessman."

Xiao Ningguang hesitated for a moment. Years of experience in the field made her never trust anyone casually, but the phrase "a real businessman" moved her heart like a mysterious magic spell. Incomparable.

After struggling for about a minute, Xiao Ningguang finally made up her mind and squeezed Qi Lin's hand tightly.

…………

After half an hour.

Eh……

When Xiao Ningguang realized it, she found that she was already sitting in a room in an inn.

Wait, didn't you agree to teach me how to be a businessman?

Why did you suddenly come to this inn to open a room?

And why did he follow up in such a strange way?

Sweat couldn't help running down the little girl's cheeks.

She naturally knew that even in Liyue Port, where the law and order was very good, some sensational cases would inevitably occur.

It is said... There are even some bad guys who pretend to be good guys, trick those little girls, and then do some unconscionable things.

Ningguang, don't be afraid, be calm!

This is the second floor, and it's very close to the street. If that guy really wants to do something wrong, I'll shout for help. If it doesn't work, I'll just jump out of the window.

hateful!Why is he interested in a dirty, ugly girl like me?

Xiao Ningguang is not humble. Although she is 12 years old now, she has a thin body due to long-term malnutrition, and her face is covered with stains and black mud. Not to mention beautiful, she is simply an ugly little girl. beggar.

Who would have guessed that this "ugly girl" would become a peerless star in the sky in a few years' time?

"By the way, let's dirty your face a little more!" Thinking of this, Mandrill Ningguang hastily stretched out his two little hands, dipped some water in the teacup, and smeared it on his little face indiscriminately. That cheek, which was already dirty, was even darker now, as if ink had been splashed all over his face.

"Hey, what are you doing?" At this moment, Qi Lin came in from outside the house, and saw that he was holding the food in his hand, watching the little Ningguang kitten rubbing his face like washing his face, he couldn't help but Puzzled, "How did you get yourself so dirty?"

"I...I'm fine." Xiao Ningguang quickly put down her hand, because of the uneasiness in her heart, she didn't even know where to put her hand for a while, and asked with some confusion: "I...can I ask a little bit?" ? Why... bring me to this kind of place?"

"Of course it's for you to take a shower first," Qi Lin pointed to the direction of the bathroom, and said, "The hot water has been placed, so go quickly. Throw away the rags on your body by the way. You got a new suit and it's hanging on a hanger in the bathroom."

"Wash... take a bath?" Xiao Ningguang's voice couldn't help raising a few decibels.

This man really plotted against me!

Tricking a homeless little girl into an inn is not something a decent person would do.

It's all because of his harmless face, I was really deceived!

"Why are you so surprised?" Qi Lin put the food on the table and said, "Go and wash it quickly. After washing, eat something again. If you linger, the food will be cold."

Smelling the aroma of the food on the table, Xiao Ningguang couldn't help sniffling.

In fact, she hasn't eaten a good meal for several days. The things she uses to fill her stomach are either hard cold steamed buns or leftovers from other people's charity. For her now, a table of delicious meals , is an irresistible temptation.

Hmph... what's there to be afraid of!

Xiao Ningguang cheered herself up in her heart. Anyway, if she wanted to run or call for help, she could do the same after taking a bath.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ningguang glanced at the dishes on the table again, and felt even more strange in her heart, why did the meals prepared by this man be the ones she likes to eat?

It is naturally impossible for Qi Lin not to know what Ningguang likes to eat, after all, he is Ningguang's godson in the future.

Walking into the bathroom, looking at the steaming bathtub, she felt some complicated feelings in her heart. She couldn't even eat a hot meal, let alone take a bath.

However, she is a girl after all, so who doesn't like clean and beautiful girls?

Now, she has basically given it all up, even if the young man outside really wants to harm her, she has to take a bath and eat, and be a clean and full ghost!

Thinking of this, Xiao Ningguang seemed to have relieved the burden in her heart, and she no longer had any worries, and began to take a bath generously.

"call……"

Ningguang, who was soaking in the bathtub, looked at her smooth and white arms, but couldn't help but feel mixed feelings. She was also an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, and other people's daughters were all studying at school and embroidering thrushes. Riyou walked the streets and alleys of Liyue Port, working hard to get a full meal.

Even she herself forgot how long it had been since no one cared so much for her like that young man.

Perhaps because she was thinking about the food, Xiao Ningguang didn't take a long bath.

Soon, the door of the bathroom opened, and amidst a puff of smoke, he walked out a little timidly after putting on new clothes and new shoes and socks.

At this time, she is not the dirty little girl just now, she is wearing a light yellow long dress, her silver hair falls down her shoulders, although her face is a little childish, it can still be seen that, She will definitely be a great beauty in the future.

"I... I finished washing."

Xiao Ningguang stood in front of Qi Lin somewhat awkwardly, raised her long wet hair by her temples with her fingers uneasily, and asked cautiously, "You...what do you think?"

"Very...very good." Looking at the girl in front of him, Qi Lin replied as calmly as possible.

Although there was no expression on his face, Qi Lin's heart had already set off a huge wave.

Really... so cute!

On weekdays, she always appeared in front of Qi Lin as a godmother, but the imposing Ning Guang has now turned into a timid little lolita. This kind of strange contrast makes Qi Lin inevitably feel a sense of innocence. strange feeling.

"That, that..." Xiao Ningguang looked anxiously at the food that was still warm on the table, licked her lips, and said, "Can I eat?"

"Pfft..." Qi Lin couldn't help laughing amused by Xiao Ningguang's eyes, and said, "Eat quickly."

When Xiao Ningguang heard it, she didn't care about her shyness, and climbed up the stool directly, grabbed a bun, and clenched the chopsticks with the other hand, and began to eat.

Seeing her eating like the reincarnation of an evil ghost, Qi Lin suddenly felt a little sad.

Although this is just a dream, it reflects Ningguang's real past. Such a little girl who can't even afford to eat has become one of the richest people in Liyue Port. You don't need to think about it. Ningguang has suffered so much along the way.

"Eat slowly, don't choke." Qi Lin handed over the tea gently, and asked, "Why are you selling things outside at such a young age, where is your family?"

There have always been many mysteries about Ningguang. It is true that it is normal for a woman like this to have a few mysteries. For example, Ningguang has never talked about her family with others.

Although Qi Lin is not extremely smart, he still has basic emotional intelligence, so when facing Godmother Ningguang, he never asked about her family.

However, this is a dreamland, and the Ningguang in front of him is just a child, so Qi Lin couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked this question.

At this time, Xiao Ningguang was already a little full, and she didn't gobble it up like before. When she heard Qi Lin's question, she couldn't help showing a bit of aggrieved expression, and said in a low voice, "It's all gone."

Next, Ningguang told her own story.

"My father was originally an antique merchant in Liyue Port. Although he is not considered a wealthy person, he has a high level of appreciating treasures and never makes eye contact. Therefore, he is quite famous in the circle of Liyue Port."

"Although my father has a good vision, he never discriminates between high and low in business. Even if the poor family brought the family's ancestral jewelry, jade, antique calligraphy and paintings, he would treat each other with courtesy and never perfunctory. I followed my father when I was young. I also learned some knowledge about appraising treasures."

"Gradually, my father's reputation in the circle of Liyue Antiques is getting higher and higher, and his business is getting better and better, but he has a straightforward personality. Even if it is some unspoken rules that are customary in the circle, he always scoffs and offends many people. .”

"The greatness must be reversed. My father's arrogance hurt the interests of many colleagues, and finally led to disaster. The seven antique dealers in Liyue Port each took out a treasure and jointly held a treasure appraisal conference. My father went to taste it. My father didn't expect that those 'friends' from the past would join forces to frame me, so naturally he went happily."

"My father went to the Treasure Appraisal Conference, and in front of countless people, he confirmed that all the treasures were genuine. Seven treasures were all sold on the same day. It became a counterfeit, and planted it on my father in front of everyone, and my father was ruined for a while, and his business naturally plummeted."

"The huge blow made my father overwhelmed for a while and committed suicide by taking poison. My mother also died of depression because of grief and anger in her heart. The family property was also divided up by those businessmen who framed my father. I was also kicked out and became an orphan. So far."

Speaking of this, in Xiao Ningguang's eyes, there was a trace of hatred that did not belong to her age, she gritted her teeth and said: "I have always kept those businessmen in my heart, the Li family, the Chai family, the Qian family , Jiang family, Mei family, Yu family, Shen family, never dare to forget... sooner or later, I will bring them all down and avenge my father!"

Qi Lin recited these surnames silently in his heart, but was suddenly surprised to find that these seven were originally well-known antique merchants in Liyue Port, but in recent years, several of them have closed down due to various reasons , and even several of the shopkeepers were imprisoned for being involved in crimes.

Now it seems that these things should be operated in the dark by Ningguang, but even Qi Lin, who often stays by Ningguang's side, has never discovered this matter. How horrible.

Fortunately, this terrible woman is not my enemy, but my godmother.

"Don't worry," Qi Lin comforted with some helplessness: "These villains will definitely suffer retribution."

"Well, so, I definitely want to become a stronger businessman than them, so that I can bring them down!" Ning Guang wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth with a towel, and said impatiently: "Please, please teach me, how can I become a businessman?" A qualified businessman!"

"I don't have anything to teach you anymore." Who knows, Qi Lin suddenly put a load on the table and said, "It's still the same thing. You raise the price tenfold and sell it. Let's see how it works."

"This...this is..."

Looking at the load on the table, there was an incredulous expression on his condensed face.

Different from my broken old cargo loader made of broken wood, the cargo loader in front of me is obviously made of precious wood, and the workmanship is also very exquisite, just like a work of art.

Although there were still the small things that I had sold in the cargo load, but the feeling was completely different.

"This is your load, take it." Qi Lin smiled and said, "Gold will naturally shine, but no one will look for gold in the trash can."

Xiao Ningguang has also learned some knowledge of treasure appraisal from her father, so she can tell at a glance that this load is worth a lot.

"Is this... is it going to be given to me?" Xiao Ningguang quickly shook her head and said, "No, this is too expensive!" "It doesn't matter," Qi Lin shrugged and smiled, "I'm not Have you been paid yet?"

"When did I pay you?" Xiao Ningguang wondered.

"That's it," Qi Lin picked up the glass lily and said, "Just now, this glass lily was worthless, but now, it is extremely precious, because the person who sold it just now is a dirty The little beggar, but the person who is selling it now is a lady with an extraordinary temperament."

"I'm not a young miss for a long time..." Xiao Ningguang blushed slightly, and asked with some doubts: "By the way, I still have a question to ask you."
