two

When Passing Water was seven years old, the master's family came to the village to choose smart and beautiful boys, saying that after a period of training, they would select the best and send them to the palace to serve as servants to the queen and princes.That is even more dignified than staying in the manor as a first-class servant. Not only can you get the rich moon silver rewarded by the palace, but the host will also give you additional rewards.

Uncle Qi works all day long, and his health is getting worse day by day. Passing water thinks that if he can be selected, pass the examination and enter the palace as a servant, he can have more money to see a doctor for Uncle Qi.Uncle Qi knew that the palace was no better than a farm in the countryside. The masters were fighting each other and the servants were in danger.Passing Water is also stubborn, he was very assertive at the age of seven, he lied to Uncle Qi, made up lies, and went to the capital with the steward who came to pick someone.

Passing water has been there for five years, only at the end of the year was he free for two or three days, and was sent back to the village to reunite with Uncle Qi.Uncle Qi only thought that he was selected and transferred to a house in the city to be a servant, but he didn't know that Shaoshui had actually gone through a series of very special training.

In the past five years, in addition to learning needlework, cooking, cooking tea and wine, etc., which should be learned by high-end servants, there are also special staff to teach them to read and write, and according to their innate temperament and aptitude, they will develop additional specialties.Among the boys who studied art with him, some of them have practiced the excellent kung fu of flying over eaves and walls, some can kill people invisible with a raise of their hands, some can seduce people with the sound of the piano and dance, and he specializes in the art of seduction.

The coach hopes that he can become a qualified eyeliner of the Gui family, and in the future, he will be a servant in the palace. While serving the nobles well, he can perform some special tasks for the Gui family by performing seductive charms with his beauty.

Baishui is talented and intelligent, he learns faster and more than others in the same time.The more he learns, the more he understands, and the more he doesn't understand and wants to know.Gradually, he was no longer the simple child who was only satisfied with food and clothing. He forgot his original wish to leave the village and began to have greater ambitions.

At the age of 12, the coach told Passing Water that he would be sent to the palace as a personal servant of a certain princess.I am afraid that there will be no chance to leave the palace freely after this trip, so the master specially gave him a few days of vacation and sent him back to the village to be with his relatives.

Uncle Qi was ill and knew that time was running out. Seeing Passing Water came back to see him, he secretly took out the 12 taels of silver that had been hidden for 20 years and solemnly handed it to Passing Water.

"Qilang, after I die, my master's family will bury me. You don't need to worry about it. These 20 taels of silver are left by your mother's family, and I will hand them over to you today. If they are really cruel and don't come looking for you, what do you use?" These silver coins can also be used as a decent dowry. You are free, you can go or stay as you like. You are supposed to be the son of everyone, so you don’t have to be wronged to be a slave. If you meet a lover, just let her go. "

Passing water cried bitterly, choked up and said: "Uncle Qi, why don't you use this money to see a doctor and buy medicine? This is what you said, my natal family paid you, right? I don't want it, I will take it and invite a good doctor .If you had taken out the money and spent it earlier, your illness would not have been delayed like this."

Uncle Qi said comfortingly: "Qilang, you don't need to be sad. I didn't leave you anything, and it makes you feel uneasy to suffer and work hard. To be honest, the money is not enough for my redemption money. I have enough for food and clothing. The master is in charge, and it’s useless to ask for the money. The money should belong to you. My current illness is hopeless, so don’t waste it on me. If you don’t accept it, I will have regrets when I die. You don’t want to I have been ignoring my conscience because of this matter, right?"

"Uncle Qi, I don't want to get married. I..." Passing Shui hesitated for a moment before telling the truth, "I have passed the master's exam, and I will be sent to the palace soon to be the servant of the princess. Those princesses There must be one who will inherit the throne in the future. If I try my best to climb up a high branch, I can also live a life of wealth and glory. Uncle Qi, you must not die. In less than a year, I can get more money. For you Redeem yourself and buy you a big house so that you don't have to work anymore."

Uncle Qi sighed: "Qilang, why are you so stupid? I am also living in the big house of the master's family. Although I am a slave, my food and clothing expenses are much better than those of the tenant refugees. I am already very content, why bother to spend money to redeem myself?" Asking for guilt?"

"Then what do you want, I have made money and gained power, I will definitely buy it for you and do it for you." Passing Water wiped his tears and swore.

"What I want is to see you happy and happy. You can spend more time with me, chat with me, and play by my side when you are free. That's when I'm happiest." Uncle Qi's eyes were a little blurred, He murmured, "You are like my own son. If I hadn't adopted you back then, I would have committed suicide a long time ago. Watching you grow up safely, no matter how hard or tired I feel, because raising you, I live It makes sense. Why don’t you understand? Since you have decided to enter the palace, I can’t stop you. But you must remember that happiness is not bought by money and power. Were you unhappy when you were a child? Are you happy?"

As Uncle Qi said this, his voice gradually became low and blurred, and finally he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep forever.

Passing Water was in a daze, with confusion and regret mixed in his heart.Did he do something wrong?Isn't happiness bought by money and power?He was indeed very happy when he was a child, but now he rarely feels happy anymore.What should he do right?Why is what Uncle Qi said different from what the coaches taught?

He hesitated and was taken to meet the head of the GUI family.

It was a majestic middle-aged woman, and Pai Shui was sure that he had never seen her before, but the first time he saw her, he felt a special feeling of intimacy.

The head of the family asked: "What's your name? Who else is in the family?"

Passing water said sadly: "The slave's name is Qilang, and he was abandoned since he was a child. He was raised by the Qi Lin family in the suburban village."

"It turns out that your life experience is so pitiful." The Patriarch's eyes wandered for a moment before he continued, "I heard that Qi Lin has passed away. Now you have nothing to worry about, and you can enter the palace with peace of mind. But you are free , I will give you one last chance, if you don’t want to go, tell me now, and I will ask someone to arrange another way out for you.”

Passing Water observes Patriarch's expression, and thinks that she definitely wants him to enter the palace.Among the same batch of children, he is the most outstanding one. The master has spent so much energy training him, so naturally he will not let him go easily, right?He is just a helpless boy, if he disobeys the Patriarch, he will end up in a terrible end, wouldn't that be a waste of Uncle Qi's hard work?After Uncle Qi died, he was lonely and helpless, and he failed to fulfill his filial piety during his lifetime. If there is a chance in the future, he will visit Uncle Qi's grave to burn paper and chat with him.He also wants to find his relatives.If you die now, all your wishes will not come true.How can he be willing?

"Master Patriarch, although this slave is free, how can I live up to my master's favor after so many years?" Passing Water said calmly, "I am willing to enter the palace and be at the mercy of Master Patriarch. It's just that I have a small Please, I hope that the Patriarch, for the sake of this slave's loyalty, can help to realize it."

The head of the family did not expect a 12-year-old boy to judge the situation so accurately, correctly judge her state of mind, and make reasonable demands with appropriate words.It seems that the past five years of upbringing have not been wasted at all, and this child is indeed a prodigy.At this age, her daughters may not have such scheming and courage.
