On the street, the faces of the people coming and going were smiling.
Shui Linglong raised her head and said to Li Zhige in confusion, "Uncle, we can help those two people, why do you say we can't help them?"
Li Zhige's eyes were calm and he replied meaningfully, "Shui Linglong, you are not experienced in the world, and you still don't understand the complexity of people's hearts. We can indeed help them this time, but what about the next time? If we help them this time, will we be able to help them in the future?" Will they not be bullied?"
Shui Linglong tilted her head, bit her finger and thought for a moment, then asked again, "Uncle, how can we help them so that they will not be bullied by others?"
Li Zhige shook his head and smiled, "We can't help. If they want to avoid being bullied by others, they can only rely on themselves. If they have no intention of resisting, they will only be bullied by others for the rest of their lives."
"Shui Linglong, remember. Poor people must have their reasons for being pitiful."
Shui Linglong sighed with innocence on her face, "Uncle, people are really complicated."
Li Zhige didn't answer Shui Linglong and looked sideways.
Wang Jili held a worn-out long flag in his hand and a worn-out gong and drum hanging on his waist. He was breathing heavily, fearful of being hit in the chest, "I almost got caught! If I was really caught, I wouldn't give Zhang Mazi ten taels." Not even money."
"Who would have thought that Zhang Mazi was so strong that he could really smash the iron stone I specially found."
Wang Mingzhu was holding a money bag, her face was rosy, and she said excitedly, "Dad, fortunately we ran fast. This time we made more than ten taels of silver, enough for me to buy several new clothes."
Wang Jili looked at Wang Mingzhu, rolled his eyes, smiled and said flatteringly, "Mingzhu, do you think you can give the money to dad, and dad will save it for you as a dowry."
Wang Mingzhu immediately tightened her purse and looked at Wang Jili with alert eyes, "Dad, you are not allowed to think about this money. If this money falls into your hands, you will definitely take it to the casino and lose it all."
"This money was earned by Jade's life. You should keep it to buy me new clothes and rouge and gouache. Dad, think about it carefully. If you dress me up more beautifully, can I marry a rich man? Or even Marrying those dignitaries? If I marry a rich man, won’t you also enjoy the blessings?”
"Dad, you need to take a longer view. Whether it is for your daughter's happiness or for your future happiness, all this money should be used for me to buy new clothes and rouge and gouache."
The teenage Yuanbao looked angrily at Wang Jili, Wang Mingzhu and his daughter. He was short and said angrily, "Silver! Silver! For this little silver, you just cheated and kidnapped me, and you even left Sister Jade!"
"Sister Feicui earned this money at the risk of her life, and now you are leaving Sister Jade! Do you know that Sister Jade may be beaten to death by those people!"
"Do you still have a conscience?"
Faced with Yuan Bao's questioning, Wang Jili knocked Yuan Bao on the head and cursed with a straight face, "You little bastard, have you rebelled against me? If I hadn't adopted you and Jade out of mercy, you would have starved to death on the roadside!" "
"Talk to my conscience?"
"Do you have any conscience when you speak like this to the father who adopted you?"
Yuan Bao blushed angrily and pointed at Wang Jili, "How can there be a father like you? You adopted me and Sister Jade just so that we can make money for you. You don't regard me and Sister Jade as your own children at all, you just If you want me to make money for you, you just treat Sister Jade as your father and daughter's maid!"
Wang Jili sneered, "Yuanbao, I'll send you to the school to study. Has the teacher in the school ever taught you the principle of repaying a drop of kindness by a spring of water?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Wang Mingzhu twisted her waist and touched Yuanbao's head, squinted her eyes and smiled, "Okay, don't argue. Yuanbao, sister Mingzhu knows that you are worried about Jade, but don't worry, those people will only attack Jade at most." After all, they won’t do anything to Jade. After all, if they really beat Jade to death, the government will also convict them, right?”
"Why do you and Jade have been raised by my father since childhood? My father and I regard you and Jade as relatives. How can we only regard you as a tool to make money?"
Yuanbao lowered his head and said nothing. Looking at the father and daughter in front of him, Yuanbao had very complicated feelings for them.
On the one hand, it is undeniable that Dad Wang Jili adopted him and Sister Jade and was kind to them. On the other hand, Wang Jili and Wang Mingzhu's father and daughter only regarded him and Jade as servants and tools to make money.
Li Zhige stood aside and looked at Wang Jili and his daughter who had escaped, and couldn't help but lament the selfishness and ugliness of human nature.
Shui Linglong looked at Wang Jili and Wang Mingzhu with angry eyes, and said to Li Zhige, "Uncle, these two people are so bad. Shui Linglong wants to teach them a lesson."
"Who's to blame?"
"Little girl, who do you think is bad?"
Shui Linglong's undisguised voice reached the ears of Wang Jili and Wang Mingzhu. Immediately, Wang Mingzhu walked towards Li Zhige and Shui Linglong with her hands on her hips. She glared at Shui Linglong fiercely, looking like a scolding shrew.
Although Shui Linglong belongs to the dragon clan, she is a young dragon who has never seen the world. Facing such a vicious and aggressive Wang Mingzhu, she was actually frightened.
Li Zhige looked at Wang Mingzhu with cold eyes.
Touching Li Zhige's cold gaze, Wang Mingzhu stiffened, her soul seemed to be frozen, and even her thoughts and consciousness slowed down a bit.
Looking at Li Zhige's tall and high-spirited body, Wang Jili was a little scared. He stepped forward and grabbed Wang Mingzhu's wrist. He smiled apologetically at Li Zhige and said, "This noble man, my little daughter Mingzhu is ignorant and bumped into you. I hope you don't want to." Just like a little girl."
Although Wang Jili wanders around the market, is ignorant and cheats, the most important thing about cheating and kidnapping is his eyesight. He must learn to distinguish what kind of people can be provoked and what kind of people cannot be provoked.
Wang Jili could tell at a glance that Li Zhige was the kind of person who should never be messed with.
Wang Mingzhu came back to her senses. She was a little scared and shrank her neck, but she still said firmly, "Dad, why do you have to apologize to them? They scolded us first, why are they still being reasonable?"
"Dad, don't be afraid of him."
"I don't believe it. A grown man dares to hit a weak woman like me..."
Under Li Zhige's cold gaze, Wang Mingzhu's tone became weaker and weaker, her voice became smaller and smaller, and she became more and more guilty.
Wang Jili smiled apologetically at Li Zhige, dragged Wang Mingzhu away, and whispered to Wang Mingzhu, "Silly daughter, please stop saying a few words. He is a great big shot, and we cannot mess with him."
Wang Mingzhu was a little scared, patted her soft and magnificent chest, and said with lingering fear, "Dad, luckily you held me back. That person was so scary, I felt like I was going to die just now."
The father and daughter lowered their heads and whispered to each other as they moved forward.
boom!
Because she lowered her head, Wang Mingzhu suddenly fell into a broad embrace.
Wang Mingzhu suddenly raised her head and was about to curse, but when she saw the handsome man in front of her who was wearing brocade, with a jade belt around his waist, and a jade ring on his thumb, her eyes suddenly glowed with greed and obsession.
Wang Jili also saw this handsome man with golden clothes and jade belt. He looked at his daughter and then at the handsome man, his eyes rolling around.
Li Zhige did not leave, but observed Wang Jili and his daughter from a distance, observing the handsome man in rich clothes and jade belt, with a strange look in his eyes.
Shui Linglong wrinkled her small nose, looked at the handsome man in rich clothes and jade belt in the distance, and whispered, "Uncle, the smell of that man is so pungent, and it is very fishy, which makes Shui Linglong uncomfortable."
Li Zhige held Shui Linglong's hand, his eyes were deep and he said in a calm tone, "People have popularity, dragons have dragon aura, monsters have evil aura, what you see is not a human being."
