Congrats to the boss and his brother

The young man seemed unwilling to even take another look at the little thing on the bed, so he turned around and walked towards the main room.

When he reached the door, he heard the sound of arguing in the room, the sound came from Rong Niang and a man.

"It's not that I'm cruel. Now all the money in the family has been given to the boss to treat his illness. It's very urgent to raise another girl." The man said, "I don't think that girl is a child of a farmer's family. You won't get used to eating bran swallowing vegetables with us."

"With such a big child, it's hard for me to see that doll left unattended outside." Rong Niang said: "I'll ask when she wakes up, maybe someone lost it and sent it back. .”

"What if it's a child that no one wants? Are you willing to send it away after raising it for two days?" The man said again: "This doll looks very delicate. If there is a headache in the back, why don't we treat it? There is a baby at home. Boss takes medicine every day, we are already struggling..."

A trace of hesitation flashed across Rong Niang's face when she heard the words. She didn't know that her compassion should not be moved, but she really couldn't do it if she saw such a child left on the side of the road and left alone.Let alone her, even the man in his family who said he didn't care, if he really met on the side of the road, he would have to take care of him.

That is a human life after all.

Just when the two were in a stalemate, the boy entered the main room.

As soon as the husband and wife saw the boy, they tacitly stopped talking and did not continue to quarrel.

The two said it was a quarrel, but their attitudes were not considered bad. It could be seen that their relationship should be good on weekdays, and even if they encountered disagreements, they argued very well.Especially that man, when he looked at Rong Niang, he was still vaguely guilty, as if he was afraid that Rong Niang would be unhappy.

"Mother." The young man looked at Rong Niang and said, "I know you are worried about your elder brother's illness, but it's really nonsense to say it to Chongxi."

The young man heard about the "little sister-in-law" from the old Qian's wife, and when he returned home, he saw a small thing in his house. Where did he find a little girl to celebrate his elder brother?

The man at the side was startled when he heard the words, looked at Rong Niang, and said, "Congratulations? So you brought that doll back to congratulate the boss?"

Rong Niang was startled when she heard the words, she hadn't thought about the joy, after all, she wasn't sure if the little girl was really homeless, if there was a place to go, she would naturally send her back.Even if there is nowhere to go, you have to ask the other person what they mean first.

She wanted to deny it, but the man's expression softened a lot.

"Forget it." The man seemed to have figured something out, and said, "If you had said earlier, I wouldn't have argued with you for a long time. Hey... If that's the case, wait for her to wake up and ask, if it's really useless Home is home, let her stay for the time being."

"Father?" The boy was obviously dissatisfied with this arrangement.

The man raised his hand, indicating that there is no need to say any more.

Rong Niang didn't expect the man to respond, she was a little surprised immediately.

What she wanted to explain, she immediately swallowed it back.

She thought that if the other party was homeless, she could use this as an excuse to let someone live in, lest the man would not want to take in the other party.

"Father, why did you agree to let that little girl stay?" After leaving the main room, the boy asked the man, "All the porridge and meals that the little girl will eat in the future will have to be deducted from the elder brother's medicine money."

The man glanced at the young man and said, "How can it be so exaggerated? How much food can a six or seven-year-old baby eat?"

"But you just didn't want to." The boy said.

"Can't you see it?" The man sighed and said, "Your mother is rushing to the doctor in a hurry. If you don't follow her, in the future, if your elder brother... I'm afraid that your mother will feel uncomfortable. If this is the case, why don't you just stop now?" If it meets your mother's wishes, it can be regarded as reassuring her."

The eldest in the family has been ill for so long, the father has already prepared in his heart.

He knew that his wife was sensitive, and if she didn't do what she should do, she might regret it for the rest of her life.

The boy frowned, noncommittal.

"In ten days and a half months, if your eldest brother's illness doesn't improve, your mother should know that the joy is useless. Then we can find another reason and find a place for the girl who can afford her. Yes." The man said again: "Fortunately, your mother didn't mention anything else, there is always room for change in this matter."

If the family is serious about picking up a "child bride" to congratulate, there must be a ceremony more or less, and even naturalization is more serious. Only after the ceremony is naturalized, the girl can officially be regarded as a member of their family.But Rong Niang didn't mention this from the beginning to the end, it seems that she just wanted to bring the girl into the house, and didn't pay attention to anything else, so naturally the man wouldn't take the initiative to mention it.

"Let's do this for today. It's not good to drive people away in the middle of the night, right? It's a pity if you starve to death." The man said again: "Besides, maybe someone got lost. It's the best way, tomorrow Send people back."

The young man didn't say anything after hearing the words, he just glanced meaningfully in the direction of the side room.

Chi Jingyao didn't sleep for too long.

But what he didn't expect was that when he woke up, he somehow became the "child bride" of the eldest son of the family.

Perhaps this world is really chaotic, and it is not uncommon to pick up a child on the side of the road and go home.

It wasn't until he figured out the whole story that it was a complete misunderstanding.

After Rong Niang told him what happened, Chi Jingyao was in a daze for a while.

It can be seen that Rong Niang likes him very much, and she greets him with kindness and distress, as if she treats him like her own daughter.

Chi Jingyao told Rongniang the life experience he made up earlier, and Rongniang had no doubts at all.Rong Niang originally thought that when Chi Jingyao woke up, she had to ask about the child's life experience first. If there was a place to go, she would naturally send him home, but she didn't expect that Chi Jingyao really had nowhere to go.

However, Chi Jingyao didn't mention Ruan Baozi's matter to Rongniang, he wanted to clarify his situation first.

Anyway, that elder sister had agreed to take Ruan Baozi in temporarily today, and now that Chi Jingyao hadn't gone back, the other party would definitely not drive Ruan Baozi away easily.After Chi Jingyao figured out what was going on in front of him, it wouldn't be too late to go find Baozi Ruan tomorrow.

"Don't worry, the rejoicing is just a pretext, and I didn't believe in such things." Rong Niang said to Chi Jingyao, "It's just that you are too young now, and if no one takes you in, you may not be able to survive... Now let you go Such an excuse is only a stopgap measure."

Chi Jingyao looked at Rong Niang in surprise, and couldn't help being a little surprised.

He didn't expect that Rong Niang took him in only out of sympathy, without any other intentions.

This made Chi Jingyao think of the little stray cat he brought home back then. He told the adults in the same way at that time, saying that it was temporarily taken in, and he would find a home for the kitten to adopt in the future.After raising it, the kitten became his family's "son", and his status in his parents' hearts even "crushed" Chi Jingyao.

"In the future, if you want to go somewhere else when you grow up, no one will stop you." Rong Niang said again.

Chi Jingyao couldn't help being moved when he heard the words, secretly thinking that although he was on the worst cannon fodder, he was really lucky.

Combining the original owner's memory and Rongniang's attitude, Chi Jingyao deduced that although this place is ancient, it is the world in the book after all, and the requirements for women are not as "crazy" as some dynasties, even if the women had "frenzy" when they were young. Marriage contract" and the like, in the future, as long as the two parties negotiate to terminate it, the woman will not be criticized too much afterwards.

It's easier to deal with a situation like his, but just saying it verbally doesn't even count as a marriage contract.

but……

Chi Jingyao suddenly thought of a crucial question - he is a man!

Even if it is an expedient measure, he is a big man, no, he is a little boy, so it is not easy to be a "child bride" for others, right?

"Auntie." Chi Jingyao said awkwardly, "Actually, I'm not..."

Before he could say a word, he suddenly felt a real gaze coming from the door.

That gaze fell on him, giving Chi Jingyao the illusion that the temperature around him suddenly dropped.

Chi Jingyao turned his head subconsciously and saw a strange boy standing at the door.

Although the boy is only eleven or twelve years old, his facial features have gradually become clear, especially those eyes are as deep as a cold pool, as if there is a chill in him, no wonder the other side feels that way!

"Since my mother has taken you in, you'd better not cause trouble for her." The boy's tone was a little warning.

Although his tone was cold and hard, he was only an eleven or twelve-year-old child. Chi Jingyao was not very afraid of him, and even thought the boy with a face made of ice was a bit cute.

"Pei Ye, don't scare my sister." Rong Niang scolded.

The boy restrained his coldness a bit, but there was still no smile on his face.

Chi Jingyao blinked, thinking that this young man is called Pei Ye?

Why do you think the name sounds so familiar...

At this moment, a mechanical voice sounded in his mind:

[Activate the copy task]

[Task content: Raid Pei Ye, gain the favor and trust of the target person]

[Current strategy progress: 0%]

When Chi Jingyao just fell into a coma, he activated a system called "Caring Cannon Fodder" in his mind.

This system is tailor-made for him, just because he is the worst cannon fodder in the original book!

Only by completing the main task set by the system and changing his fate in the original book can he completely have this hard-won second life.

At the same time, the system will also assign him dungeon tasks, as long as he completes the dungeon, he can get points.These points can be used to exchange items in the system mall, and can also provide him with "extra help" at critical moments.

In short: the system gave him a "golden finger" for the worst cannon fodder!

And the first dungeon mission he activated was to attack Pei Ye!

Chi Jingyao looked at the young man standing at the door again, and was shocked.

No wonder he thought Pei Ye's name was familiar, it was the name of the boss in the book!

It was the big boss who killed him after he tried to assassinate him in the original book——Pei Ye!

Chi Jingyao:! ! !

He not only met the boss, but also lived in the boss' house!

"I'll lend you my bed first." Pei Ye said coldly, "Remember, it's a loan."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left, temporarily accepting Chi Jingyao's existence.

At the same time, the mechanical voice in Chi Jingyao's mind sounded again:

[Congratulations on successfully staying with the target person]

[Current strategy progress: 1%]

[System Rewards 50 Points]

Chi Jingyao:! ! !

Is the dungeon reward so high?

1 points will be rewarded for 50% of the progress of the strategy, so wouldn't it be 100 points for the progress of 5000%!

Although he didn't know what the points could be exchanged for, Chi Jingyao had a hunch that he might be about to redeem them.

As long as you hold Pei Ye's thigh tightly, he will be able to start life in this world just around the corner.

But soon, Chi Jingyao realized that on the first day he met the boss, he occupied the boss's bed and squeezed the boss away.

And judging by the young man's attitude just now, it's obvious that he doesn't like him very much.

Chi Jingyao: ...

It seems that this strategy task is not easy.

Rong Niang comforted Chi Jingyao a few more words, then went to the kitchen to prepare dinner with Father Pei.

And Chi Jingyao was mixed up by Pei Ye's appearance, so he naturally forgot what he wanted to clarify to Rongniang.

Fortunately, Rong Niang didn't really want him to be her "daughter-in-law", so it didn't matter whether Chi Jingyao was a man or a woman.Chi Jingyao thought about it, and planned to find a suitable time to confess this to Rong Niang, so as not to alarm Pei Ye and cause unnecessary trouble.

Chi Jingyao calmed down for a while, and received the system prompt again.

Since he had just obtained 50 points, plus the 50 points previously given by the system, he now has a total of 100 points, so he activated the system mall.

Chi Jingyao summoned the system mall with his mind, which is a virtual light screen, a bit like the mall in the backstage of the game. It not only has a sales function, but also a storage function, but the storage function has not been unlocked yet.

The sales function of the mall only unlocks two categories, one is [food] and the other is [medicine].

Looking at these two categories, Chi Jingyao is quite satisfied, because living in a strange place, food and medicine are things that can be used to save life.

He carefully understood the contents of the mall, and learned that all the food in the mall is "pure natural and pollution-free" food, and all the medicines in it are guaranteed to have absolutely no side effects in addition to the names and effects listed in the introduction. .

Chi Jingyao couldn't help but feel that this system mall is quite "conscience".

He browsed through the drug classification for a while, and secretly made a plan in his mind.

Pei Ye is now not only his target, but also the person who took his life in the original book.If he can build a good relationship with Pei Ye, it means that he can not only get generous mission rewards, but also completely change his ending in the original book.

So the top priority is, first, Chi Jingyao must find a way to make Pei Ye accept that he stays in this family from the bottom of his heart, and second, he must find a way to gain Pei Ye's favor and trust.

How can Pei Ye be willing to accept that he stays?

Chi Jingyao thought for a long time, and felt that the key might be Pei Ye's elder brother——Pei Yuan.

After all, Rong Niang took him in as a pretext of "congratulations". As long as Pei Yuan's condition does not deteriorate in a short period of time, Chi Jingyao should be "safe".If Pei Yuan's condition improves, then Chi Jingyao can stay at Pei's house with "peace of mind".

At that time, it doesn't matter whether he is happy or not, or even whether he is a man or a woman.

As for Pei Ye... My eldest brother's illness has improved, so he will naturally be grateful to Chi Jingyao.

With this in mind, Chi Jingyao took a closer look at the mall, and found that based on his current points, there were only two kinds of medicines he could afford. 】.

Chi Jingyao: ...

This name is really easy to understand!

Chi Jingyao hesitated for a moment, and exchanged 20 points for a [radiant pill].

According to the system instructions, this pill can make people "radiant" within 12 hours, in other words, it can make people look better.

At dinner, Chi Jingyao thought he could see Pei Ye's eldest brother, Pei Yuan, but the other party was probably seriously ill, so he never showed up.

Pei Ye took a bowl of rice and planned to send it to his elder brother. Seeing this, Chi Jingyao hurriedly volunteered to help bring a small bowl of gruel.Rong Niang was afraid that he would be burned, so she wanted to stop him, but seeing that he was very active, she let him go.

While no one was looking, Chi Jingyao secretly put the [radiant pill] he bought from the mall into the porridge bowl.

Although this pill can't cure Pei Yuan's illness, it can make him look better.

There is an elder in Chi Jingyao's family who is a doctor. He knows some simple medical principles. People like Pei Yuan who have been ill in bed for a long time will inevitably become depressed and decadent. Once their mental state deteriorates, their health will go from bad to worse.In this sense, it cannot be said that this [radiant] pill has no effect at all, at least it will have a positive impact on the patient's psychology.

As for people like Pei Yuan who have been ill for a long time, once they are in a good mood, it will have a positive impact on the body.

Chi Jingyao carefully followed Pei Ye into the house with a porridge bowl in his hand, and saw a thin boy lying on the bed from a distance.The other party looked at the age of sixteen or seventeen, and his appearance was quite upright, but the outline of the facial features looked softer than that of Pei Ye.

Perhaps due to years of illness, the young man's complexion was very pale, and his eyes were a little gray.

"Are you A Yao?" Pei Yuan smiled faintly and asked Chi Jingyao.

Today, he has already heard about the new little girl from Rong Niang and Pei Ye respectively.As soon as he saw Chi Jingyao like this, he knew why his mother kept the little girl by her side.

He has been sick all year round and has a sensitive mind. He knows that his mother has always wanted a little girl.

Originally, he had a chance to get a younger sister...

A few years ago, Rong Niang had a baby girl, but unfortunately because of worrying about Pei Yuan's body, she was overly worried and finally slipped the baby.Rong Niang never mentioned this matter again, and everyone in the family never mentioned it, but Pei Yuan kept feeling guilty.

Today when he saw this "little girl", he felt quite comforted, and even thought in his heart that if he died soon, it would be a comfort to have this girl by his mother's side.If that day really comes, let the mother raise the baby girl as a daughter, and make it a big deal.

Thinking of this, Pei Yuan immediately developed a good impression of Chi Jingyao, and said to Chi Jingyao in a warm voice: "From now on, Ayao will call me the eldest brother and Pei Ye the second brother, and treat this place as his own." home is."

He never mentioned the matter of "Chongxi", and deliberately emphasized the title of "Big Brother", which made the embarrassment in Chi Jingyao's heart disappear.

Chi Jingyao nodded, put the porridge bowl in his hand on the low cabinet next to the bed, and said obediently: "Brother, drink the porridge."

He was afraid that Pei Yuan would waste his 20 points by not drinking the bowl of porridge, so he stared at Pei Yuan eagerly.

Chi Jingyao was born to be good-looking, with a pair of dark and bright eyes, and when he looked at others, he had a natural innocence.Even though he has lived in modern society for 19 years, the clear and bright texture in his eyes has not changed at all.

Pei Yuan couldn't bear to brush off Chi Jingyao's kindness, so he really took the bowl of porridge and drank it slowly.

He has always been sick and listless, and his appetite is naturally bad, but today he drank the whole bowl of porridge for the first time.

Seeing this, Chi Jingyao had a relieved expression on his face.

Pei Ye on the side saw Chi Jingyao's expression, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Why is this little thing so easy to win the favor of mother and elder brother?

And... Pei Ye glanced at his elder brother, and found that his face looked a lot better after drinking the bowl of porridge that Xiaoxiong handed over.

Pei Ye: ...

He doesn't understand!

Is "Chongxi" really useful?
