After staying in the rescue house for 15 minutes, Xiaoqi took the initiative to get up and leave with Wu Lanshan.

After leaving the house, Xiaoqi clearly saw the other person take a few deep breaths.

Xiaoqi couldn't help but laugh and said, "You are a good person."

"Why do you say that?" Wu Lanshan took a few deep breaths and felt more comfortable after his breath adjusted to the outside air.

“Many people are unwilling to approach the relief houses, let alone sit inside. Even the guys from Wanfuji who came to deliver supplies were like that, even though they weren’t much more noble than us. But you could chat with us inside for so long without showing any disgust or contempt for us.”

Xiao Qi and the others were used to seeing other people's gazes, so Wu Lanshan's performance was all the more precious.

"There should be other people who won't mind if you don't mind, right?"

Xiao Qi laughed heartily, "Yes, Wan Xin, the young master of Wanfuji, doesn't look down on us. Every time he comes to help with the houses, he asks us in detail what else we need, and he's very patient. There's also Tang Liu from Qihuai County, who is also in charge of the project and often treats everyone to drinks. Besides, the workers from Qihuai County don't look at us strangely."

"Only when we are around them can we feel that we are actually normal people, just like everyone else."

Wu Lanshan couldn't help but think of Tang Huan, and he asked, "What about Tang Huan?"

"You mean the Poet Immortal?" For some reason, Wu Lanshan felt that Xiao Qi's smile was even brighter.

Xiao Qi pointed ahead and led Wu Lanshan forward.

"The Poet Immortal is a very special person. He cares less about these things than everyone else, and he even eats with us. You probably wouldn't believe it if I told you that?"

"Back then, I was a real beggar, dirty and smelly, but the great poet sat down next to me and talked to me in such a natural way, and even offered me his wine."

"Later he took me out to eat, let me take a shower, and let me stay at the inn for one night."

Xiao Qi pointed to a corner in front of her, "It was right here that Lord Tang and I sat together."

It was a corner of a famine zone right next to a garbage dump; you could smell the stench even from a distance, not even near Wulan Mountain.

Old and dirty.

Wu Lanshan was even reluctant to approach; he found it hard to imagine that Tang Huan could chat and talk with a beggar here.

The two continued walking forward and suddenly saw a large group of people gathered together ahead.

Xiao Qi peeked out and exclaimed in delight, "It looks like Young Master Cui is distributing porridge!"

"Master Cui?"

"It's Cui Yuanzhao, the son of the Prime Minister. He's the sworn brother of the Poet Immortal. He comes over every few days after winter starts to distribute porridge. Now everyone likes this young master very much, and there are far fewer bad things said about Cui Renshi behind his back."

"That lawless little tyrant?" Wu Lanshan thought of someone.

Xiao Qi smiled and walked forward, "That was before. Young Master Cui is a very nice person now."

As the two approached, they saw that it was indeed Cui Yuanzhao leading his servants to distribute porridge.

Because the amount of food prepared was not much, it was all distributed in less than half an hour.

While the servants were packing up, Wu Lanshan took Xiao Qi and walked over.

"Cui Yuanzhao".

Cui Yuanzhao was resting in a chair when he heard someone call his name and immediately turned his head.

He looked at Xiao Qi as she approached, and the man beside her, observing her with a puzzled expression.

"What, don't you recognize me?" Wu Lanshan laughed. "A few years ago, you were following me around for a long time."

Cui Yuanzhao's eyes widened in astonishment as he exclaimed, "It's Wu Lanshan? You're Wu Lanshan!"

Upon recognizing the other person, Cui Yuanzhao jumped up abruptly, walked up to Wu Lanshan, and looked him up and down. "Are you alright?"

Upon hearing this question, Wu Lanshan's regret vanished in an instant.

It seems that the father's method was very effective; almost everyone believed that he was seriously ill and bedridden at the time, and few people doubted this.

"Um."

Wang Jingze and Lei Yan were also brought along by Cui Yuanzhao to distribute porridge. They also saw Wu Lanshan in front of them, and the two had different expressions.

But soon they greeted him in unison, "Greetings, Your Highness."

Wu Lanshan waved his hand, "No need to be so polite, just call me by my name like Yuan Zhao does."

"Why are you in the South District? You've just recovered from your illness. Shouldn't you be enjoying yourself in the capital, eating and drinking to your heart's content?" Cui Yuanzhao asked this friend from his memories.

Calling him a friend might not be accurate; he could even be called an older brother.

Back then, Wu Lanshan was exceptionally talented, so Cui Renshi kept pressuring Cui Yuanzhao to stay by his side so that he could learn from his strengths.

Unfortunately, this approach does not seem to be effective.

"And you? What brings you to the South District?"

Cui Yuanzhao curled his lips, "Isn't this the place to distribute porridge? Old Tang is so good, he just patted his butt and left, leaving so many people in the South District with their mouths open waiting to be fed. If I didn't come over to deliver porridge every few days, I would be worried that these people would starve to death."

"I also came to the South District to check on the situation and to ask around about Tang Huan."

Cui Yuanzhao said in surprise, "You've heard of Lao Tang too? He's really good, just like you. Many people give him a thumbs up after talking about others. But I'm even better. I'm buddies with both of you, and Lao Tang is my sworn brother."

"Really? I've heard a lot about Tang Huan from everyone, but it's a pity I haven't met him in person yet. Actually, I'm quite interested in him."

Cui Yuanzhao rolled his eyes and suddenly asked, "You've just recovered from your illness, are you able to go out?"

"Going out? Where to?"

"Staying in the capital is so boring. I've been thinking about going back to Qihuai County these past few days. It's a lot of fun there, especially that entertainment center. It's full of dazzling things. You can ask Wang Jingze if you don't believe me."

Wang Jingze nodded, agreeing with Cui Yuanzhao's statement.

"Are you planning to go back to Qihuai County to find Tang Huan?" Wu Lanshan asked, his mind racing.

“Yes, and you also want to get to know Old Tang, right? It’s perfect that we go back to Qihuai County together for the winter. There’s nothing else to do in the capital, is there? It’s just that I’m worried that your illness has only just started to improve these past few years, and that coming with us on this trip might cause some problems again…”

Wu Lanshan fell into deep thought. He thought for a moment and said, "It should be fine. I'll go back and tell my father. When do you plan to leave?"

"How about tomorrow then?" Cui Yuanzhao said eagerly. "I'll also invite some people to come along. Everyone will definitely be interested in Lao Tang's business."

Cui Yuanzhao approached Wulan Mountain mysteriously, saying, "You probably won't believe it, but I made quite a bit of money in the past month or so from the business I did with Lao Tang. I want to go back and see what other businesses I can do so that I won't have to ask my dad for money anymore."

Wu Lanshan nodded, "Hearing you say that, I feel it's really necessary for me to go there myself."
