Chapter 282 How can absorbing the wealth of the world be called stealing?
Yu Youning held these things, raised his head, and looked at Yu Tingwan helplessly, "Mother..."
Seeing Yu Youning like this, Yu Tingwan's eyes were full of smiles.
With so many keepsakes, most people can only get one or two and would be so happy.
But although Yu Youning had gained so much, her delicate little face was full of distress.
Seeing that Yu Tingwan was just smiling and had no intention of helping, Yu Youning could only urge her, "Mother, I can't get it!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Tingwan hurried over, took out a cloth bag from his wide sleeves, opened it, put all these things in it, tightened the drawstring, and handed it to Yu Youning.
Yu Youning didn't answer, but tilted her head and asked, "Mother, why are you giving it to me?"
"These are what those people just gave you, so naturally I have to give them to you!"
Yu Youning thought about it and took it.
But when he turned around, he looked at Teng Snake.
"Xiao Tengteng, please help me put it away!"
Tengshe opened his mouth and swallowed the bag directly into his stomach.
The thing is in Teng Snake's stomach. No one can take it away unless Teng Snake takes it out on his own initiative.
Yu Youning patted Teng Snake with satisfaction, "This way you don't have to worry about losing it!"
As for use?
Yu Youning never thought of using it again.
Seeing Yu Youning like this, everyone else laughed.
Only Yu Youning could have such a character.
If it were someone else, he might have already thought about taking these tokens and unifying the world.
Marshal Wen looked up at the sky. The sun was already setting and was about to go down.
"It's getting late, let's go back to the hot spring villa first." Marshal Wen suggested.
Everyone nodded when they heard this and walked down the mountain together.
After half an hour, it was completely dark and they returned to the hot spring villa.
They had a meal first and then took a hot spring bath.
After washing up, I changed into comfortable pajamas and lay down on the bed. After a while, I closed my eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, Yu Tingwan smelled something burning and woke up instantly, turning over and sitting up.
Why is there a burning smell in the middle of the night?
Looking out the window, you can still see the faint glow of fire.
Yu Tingwan was shocked and immediately called Yu Youning.
"Youning, get up quickly, there's a fire outside."
Hearing the words "fire", Yu Youning instantly woke up, jumped up, stood on the bed and looked around blankly, "Mom, where is the fire?"
His eyes were clearly wide open and he looked very awake, but in fact he was obviously not fully awake yet and it was just a subconscious reaction from being suddenly awakened.
Yu Tingwan had already put on her clothes and helped Yu Youning put on her coat before going outside with her.
The Teng Snake had already turned back into a bracelet and returned to Yu Youning's wrist. Now, as Yu Youning ran, it swayed gently on her wrist.
When the two of them got outside, they saw that the lights in other rooms were on and the yard was full of people. Everyone looked nervous and looked in the same direction.
Just then, Wen Shiyan came back.
"I just went over to check. There was a fire in an empty yard. Although it burned down several houses, there were no casualties. The people in the villa were fighting the fire, and it was almost out."
After hearing Wen Shiyan's explanation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the house.
But after being interrupted like this, I couldn't fall asleep.
There was a group of people sitting together, but no one spoke.
Except for Yu Youning and Huo Qingchen, everyone's expressions looked very heavy.
Huo Qingchen took off a bag from his waist as if he was offering a treasure.
The bag was filled to the brim and looked heavy, as if it would burst at any moment.
Huo Qingchen held the bag in both hands and handed it to Yu Youning with a smile on his face, as if he was presenting a treasure.
Yu Youning looked at Huo Qingchen strangely, "What is this?"
"Gold!" Huo Qingchen answered as if it was a matter of course. "This is all what the golden toad spit out tonight. I packed it up and give it to you!"
"Why should you give it to me?"
"The golden toad has recognized you as its master. Of course, the gold it spits out is yours!"
Huo Qingchen said it as a matter of course.
Yu Youning stared at it for a while, then suddenly revealed a brilliant smile, "Then send all this gold to Sister Fu Wan!"
Fu Wan followed them to the capital, but did not live in the Wen Mansion.
She went straight to the Charity Hall and lived there.
I've been very busy these days and haven't visited her.
After returning to the capital, I can go see her and give her some gold.
Huo Qingchen also thought Yu Youning's idea was good. "With this gold, Deshan Hall can not only be repaired, but also some tables, chairs and benches can be purchased to provide better food for the children and the elderly. We can also buy some pens, inkstones, paper, and inkstones..."
Yu Youning nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes! This golden toad is quite useful!"
Jin Chan had been standing obediently on the table. After hearing Yu Youning's words, his eyes widened instantly, and he jumped in front of Yu Youning, raised his head, and looked at Yu Youning without blinking.
Obviously, it understood what Yu Youning had just said and felt that Yu Youning was praising it, so it must like it.
After returning today, Huo Qingchen has been staying with the golden toad, and Huo Qingchen has gotten to know it a little bit.
"Youning, the golden toad wants you to touch it!"
Yu Youning looked hesitant, but finally reached out his hand and touched the golden toad's body with one finger.
The golden toad is golden all over, and feels slippery, cool, and hard, almost like gold.
Feeling the touch of his fingertips, Yu Youning's last bit of concern about the golden toad disappeared.
As long as it's not hot to the touch!
A finger turned into a palm and gently stroked the toad's back.
The golden toad was very happy.
Not only were his eyes wide open, but gold was also constantly spitting out of his mouth.
After a while, a small mountain of gold appeared on the table, similar to the one in the bag that Huo Qingchen had taken out before.
Huo Qingchen, "..."
When Yu Youning wasn't around, he would spit out a piece of it every once in a while.
Now that he saw Yu Youning, he vomited so much in a short time!
It’s really....awesome!
Huo Qingchen looked at Yu Youning and gave her some advice.
"Youning, look how much it likes you. If you keep touching it, won't the gold keep coming in?"
Yu Youning tilted his head, "But where does the gold it spits out come from?"
He had been watching the two people's ceremony, and after hearing this, he hurriedly said, "I've read about it in a book before. It says that the golden toad can swallow and spit out the wealth of the world. It absorbs the wealth of the world and spits it out to its owner."
Yu Youning listened attentively. After Wen Xiangli finished speaking, she asked, "So... does this count as stealing?"
Chu Huaixu shook his head. "Taking someone else's money with your own hands is called stealing. How can sucking up all the wealth in the world be called stealing?"
Yu Youning thought about it seriously and felt that what Chu Huaixu said made sense.
"Now that you mention it, it doesn't really seem like stealing!"
"Then you can let Sister Fu Wan and the others use it without any worries!"
Hearing Yu Youning's words, Chu Huaixu and others laughed.
Youning’s character is so pure!
He is quite energetic when talking, but once he becomes quiet, he starts to feel sleepy.
Although he was sitting there, Yu Youning's little head began to nod.
It seemed as if she would fall off the bench in the next moment.
Seeing Yu Youning so sleepy, Yu Tingwan walked over and said, "Youning, go to bed. We are all here. We will call you if there is anything."
Yu Youning rubbed his eyes, agreed, and staggered towards the bed.
Although I almost fainted many times on the way, I finally managed to lie down on the bed.
Almost as soon as he touched the bed, he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Yu Tingwan helped her cover herself with the quilt, and then said to Chu Huaixu and the others, "There's a warm couch over there, more than enough for you guys to lie down on. You guys can continue to sleep. After daybreak, we'll return to the capital."
Chu Huaixu, Huo Qingchen, Wen Xiangli and Jiang Lingzhou stood up together, thanked Yu Tingwan, and then hugged the quilt and lay down on the warm couch to sleep.
Seeing Nian Yi still sitting there, Yu Tingwan was a little surprised, "Buddha, why don't you go to sleep? Are you worried? With us watching over you, nothing will go wrong, don't worry."
He put his hands together and said, "Amitabha, the donor has misunderstood. I can sit here and rest."
He sat cross-legged on the mat, clasped his hands together and closed his eyes. His breathing gradually became even, as if he had really fallen asleep.
He is clearly a flesh-and-blood person, but now, sitting there with his eyes closed, he really gives people the feeling of a Buddha statue.
Yu Tingwan kept staring at it for a long time before looking away.
"Mr. Chu, father." Yu Tingwan looked at the two of them, "It's getting late, why don't you two take a rest?"
There are still more than two hours before dawn. We can't just wait until dawn, right?
Besides, they are both old.
But Marshal Wen and Chu Huaishan shook their heads at the same time. "We are both old, and we don't sleep much when we are old. We can't fall asleep even if we lie down. We are two old guys playing chess, don't worry about us."
The two of them went directly to the next room, which was a study. There was a low couch facing the window with a chessboard on it, which was perfect for playing chess.
Wen Shiyan followed the two of them over, set up a stove for them, made tea, and even took out some snacks from the cupboard.
After everything was ready, Wen Shiyan stopped disturbing the two and quietly retreated.
As soon as I walked out of the house, I saw Yu Tingwan waiting outside.
"Liuyun is guarding the house." Yu Tingwan said with a smile.
Wen Shiyan walked up, gently held Yu Tingwan's hand, and pulled her onto the roof.
The two sat down on the roof, the gentle moonlight shining on them.
Wen Shiyan put his arm around Yu Tingwan's shoulders and let her rest her head on them.
Although he didn't say anything, he stayed by her side, and every moment of his companionship was a silent comfort.
