Chapter 19 Tang Yue and Daniu Three days later. on the street. Yu Xiao sat in an eight-person sedan chair, parading through the streets surrounded by four maids, twenty followers, and several masters. The townspeople all showed courtesy and saluted. Awe from the bottom of your heart. The town is not big, with only one street, where all the shops are concentrated. A quarter of them belong to Yu Xiao, and more than 3,500 acres of land in the surrounding area belong to him alone. It can be said. The livelihood and lifeline of the entire town. They were all controlled by Yu Xiao.
With just one word from him, countless people could lose their jobs. A single thought of his could affect the livelihoods of thousands of people. With just a wave of his finger, young girls from all over the country would line up to come to him, and with just a command from him, a large number of people would work hard for him. In this one-third of an acre of land. He was more influential than the imperial court. County Magistrate Ye didn't dare to do anything to him. What is a local emperor? This is a local emperor! However, Yu Xiao never abused his power. Instead, he did charity, reduced rent for tenants, and gave generously, as if he regarded money as dirt. Because of this, his reputation grew day by day. Current reputation value: 349/400. It's about to hit 350 and continues to grow. However, the growth rate is slowing down and is expected to stagnate at around 370-380. There is still a gap. But it's not a big problem. Wait and use Shihuzhai for another wave. Breaking through the levels will be a piece of cake. The higher the reputation level. The more luck you gain. This is of vital importance to Yu Xiao! Maid Xiaomei: "Master, we're here!"
Yu Xiao came to the Yujia Charity House which he founded. Twenty attendants and porters began to carry large and small packages of supplies. The charity house currently has nearly 300 adopted children, most of whom are infants bought from human traffickers, and some are parentless or poor and helpless children from Yujia Village. It has been one month since the establishment of the charity center. It is now completely on the right track. In the academy, these children have food to eat, books to read, and can also practice martial arts. Although they are not very old, they have all experienced hardships and know how difficult life is outside. They cherish their current life and are full of admiration and gratitude for their adoptive father. "The foster father is here!" "Everyone come out to greet them!" "Greetings to godfather! Greetings to godfather!" The child came running over upon hearing the noise, his face full of joy. Yu Xiao came to visit every few days in the past month, and each time he came he would bring small gifts for the children. In addition, the gratitude-oriented education given by several gentlemen also made his image and prestige in the children's minds grow day by day. "Ah Xiao!" A 70-year-old man with gray beard and reading glasses came out. This person is one of the elders of the Yu family. He is the cousin of the old patriarch, Yu Guozhong, who is also a scholar and is currently one of the persons in charge of the Yu family charity hall. Yu Xiao said: "I came to see you all. The children are growing up, and I am worried that they will not get enough nutrition, so I bought 50 chickens from the countryside and arranged for the kitchen to prepare them as soon as possible." All the children's eyes lit up and they were drooling. "Ah Xiao, you are so thoughtful!" Yu Guozhong's face was full of relief. The Yu family is so fortunate to have such a person! Yu Xiao: "I also bought some paper and pens for the children to share. If they study hard in the future, as long as they perform well, they can go to the provincial capital's university or study abroad in the West in the future!" Except for pen and paper. Of course, small gifts such as candies that children like are also indispensable. All of a sudden, all the children lined up and received their gifts with joy on their faces. Yu Xiao was very satisfied with this. Then he noticed a child who was different from the others. The little girl, about eight or nine years old, had fair skin, a delicate face, and big eyes. She looked very cute. She didn't look like she was born in a poor family, so she seemed a little different. "This child is..." "Master Yu, this is our little girl Yue'er!"
Tang Yang quickly stepped forward to explain: "I brought her from the provincial capital. Since she had no playmates and I didn't have much time to take care of her, I temporarily placed her here." Yu Xiao nodded. Master Tang’s family is full of loyal and brave people. The whole family was persecuted and killed by foreigners. Tang Yue was the only daughter left. And this is also the reason why Yu Xiao can use him with confidence. Master Tang has always been worried about his daughter's mental health. after all. Such a tragic thing. It's hard for adults to accept. What’s more, a child who is less than nine years old? I'm afraid it will be hard not to have an impact on your personality! At that time, there was a large group of children of similar age in Jianyi Hall, most of whom had miserable life experiences. Here, not only could they study and practice martial arts, but the atmosphere was also optimistic, so he sent his daughter here as well. He hopes his children can make some sisters and friends here. Had a normal and happy childhood. It's a good intention. Tang Yue bowed respectfully and said in a childish voice: "Yue'er greets the master!" This child seems to be much more mature than his peers. This is not only related to the fact that he was born in a wealthy family, but the more important reason is probably that he has experienced or even witnessed some cruel things. "Yue'er, from today on, this is your home." Yu Xiao asked Xiao Zhu to bring a piece of candy and a beautiful peep show. "This is a small gift for our first meeting. Feel free to accept it." "Thank you, sir!" Yu Xiao nodded slightly. At this time, a master came up. Liao Zhen, a fifth-rank master, is one of the eight masters in the Yu Family Compound. Master Liao’s personal strength is second only to Tang Yang and Wang Zhong. He comes from a large martial arts school in Focheng. He is proficient in many kinds of boxing and has rich teaching experience. He is currently the chief martial artist of Yiguan. "Master Yu!" Yu Xiao nodded slightly and asked, "Are there any talents suitable for martial arts training?" Liao Zhen immediately said: "There are quite a few good talents, especially one named Yu Daniu, who may be a rare martial arts genius." "Oh? Really? Call me over to have a look!"
Soon after. A ten-year-old child was called. This is a simple young man who is dark, thin and has an honest face. Although he is not very old, his hands are covered with scars and even calluses, which shows that he has experienced a lot of hardships in the past. “Yiyiyi…Godfather!” Yu Daniu never expected that he would be summoned alone by his most admired and grateful adoptive father. He was so excited that his eyes were wet and his face was flushed, but because he was not good at speaking, he could not utter a word for a long time. In the end, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times. "do not worry!" Yu Xiao personally reached out to feel the patient's pulse. Hey, there is actually a strong trace of blood flowing in the body of this dark and thin boy. "How long has he been practicing?" "About fourteen days." what? Can you achieve this in just two weeks?! It will probably take two months for the blood and energy to flow through the meridians and collaterals, thus enabling him to become an entry-level warrior! This kid is only in his early teens, his bones haven't fully developed yet, and he has no nutrition, no skills, no tonics or support. Even so, can he reach this level? What is a martial arts genius? This is the real martial arts genius! "Yes, but he looks a little too thin. Ask the kitchen to prepare an extra portion of meat for Daniu so that he can get his body back in shape as soon as possible." Yu Daniu was so excited that he was speechless. Yu Xiao patted his shoulder and said, "Practice well. When you reach a higher level, I will personally teach you a better boxing technique!" "Thank you stepfather!" "Daniu must work hard!" "Daniu will never let his godfather down!" Yu Daniu was an orphan as both his parents had passed away. He was also tortured by several human traffickers and suffered a lot until he met his adoptive father and came to this charity home. in fact. He practices martial arts and reads books. No interest at all. He just likes his current life. Yu Daniu has no ambitions or dreams, and has never thought about becoming a master. His biggest wish and luxury is to be able to stay in the charity house forever, and his greatest pursuit is to satisfy his adoptive father. This is an expression of gratitude to my adoptive father. It's also a sense of insecurity deep down in my heart. In the past, in order to avoid starving to death, he had to do a lot of work every day, even when he was sick with a high fever.
Once, he ate half a piece of moldy steamed bun and was beaten mercilessly by gangsters. He was paralyzed in bed for several days and almost died. He doesn't know why he deserves the life he has now. it's good now. Got a goal! Since my godfather likes me to practice martial arts! Since practicing martial arts can make my godfather happy! Then I will practice hard! Practice day and night! No matter how hard it is, I am not afraid! (End of this chapter)
