192 Huang Family Gifts
Qi Wei had been paying attention to this matter. As soon as Sun Sicheng brought the children back to Huainan Prefecture, his subordinates immediately told him.
Qi Wei was impressed that the child was found in such a short time after being lost. No matter what, it was always a good thing to find the child.
He had been planning to visit the house the next day, but when he saw the prefect and his men entering the Sun residence from afar, he remembered that the prefect had already mobilized a large number of yamen runners for such a big matter, and he would definitely visit the house when the child returned.
Well, let’s do it one day later.
Looking at his sick father, he was afraid that Sun Sicheng would leave without saying goodbye. After all, such a thing had happened and it had been a lot of trouble, and he couldn't say anything wrong.
A day later, Qi Wei came to the door with a lot of bags.
Sun Sicheng had a plan in mind when it came to Qi Wei's visit. When he arrived at Huainan Prefecture, the child was fine now. Before leaving, he had planned to see his cousin Qi. Apart from other things, his mother still had affection for this cousin. Apart from the fact that he doted on his daughter without any bottom line, he was normal in other aspects.
"Sicheng, my father heard that you brought the children back, so he urged me to come over yesterday. When I arrived at the door, I saw adults coming from afar, so I went back. I wonder if the children were frightened? Bring these supplements to the children."
Sun Sicheng said, "We had a close call this time. The children were rescued that night. They were delayed on the road for a few days. Cousin, thank you and your uncle for your concern. The children are doing well."
"Sicheng, when do you plan to return to Yong'an Prefecture?"
Sun Sicheng sighed, "I will go to see my cousin tomorrow. If there is nothing else, I can just spend the next two days. There are a lot of things going on over there."
Qi Wei stood up and said, "Sicheng, I won't bother you any more. You must be tired these days. Take a good rest. I'll wait for you at home tomorrow."
Sun Sicheng did not try to keep him, but stood up and saw him out of the house.
Yesterday, the prefect asked him to help diagnose his parents' pulse today, so he had to give him this favor.
The second brother's illness has not been recovered yet, and Baicaotang has been very busy these days. Several of Awu's maids are also there. After leaving Ma's house, he has to go to Baicaotang, and Ping'an stayed in the mansion to rest.
Ping'an, who stayed in the room, took the opportunity when Huo Zhi went to Huashou Hall to take out the package in the backpack. This was the package that Uncle Ming helped him bring up and put into a backpack.
I was worried that if the government took the carriage back, it would be difficult to take out the things in the cabinet. Two days passed, and it seemed that the government either forgot about the two horses or did not take them seriously at all, or they might just give face to the master.
Ping'an bolted the door and opened the package. There were banknotes, silver bars, and gold nuggets. After counting carefully, it was found that this amount of money was not much for the kidnappers. It was also possible that the valuables were already in their base camp and this was just a temporary place to stay.
Converted into silver, it was almost 600 taels. The light was not bright at the time, so he didn't even take some ordinary jewelry, including some heavy copper coins.
Several jade pendants. Hey, what's going on? One of the jade pendants has a green bamboo on the front and the word "Huo" on the back. Could it be Brother Huo's? I have to return it to him and say that I accidentally wrapped it in the quilt before going out.
There was no girl's thing, it must be with Xiaowu's wife. He didn't search her things, which was not a good thing. He just muttered a few pitiful words, but wasn't he helping to do bad things?
The four girls including Awu came from well-off families, so how could they not wear any jewelry? Anyway, after he rescued the people, they were as clean as plain noodles in soup.
Six hundred taels is not bad either. His eleven, no, twelve subordinates should be rewarded occasionally. The profit from the shop and the pill shop is paid once a year, but he doesn't have any now. The three hundred taels he had before were also given to Uncle Fang to buy food. Now he has nothing.
Xiaohu can now be said to have passed the master's clear path and officially become his man, and the deed is in his hands.
After packing up the bag, he put the jade pendant in his arms and simply lay down on the kang, recalling the Taoist Master Hu in his dream the night before. Was it that he dreamed about what he thought about during the day, or did the Taoist Master really appear in his dream?
Didn't you dream about the Taoist priest leaving after you buried him? Leaving means he has entered reincarnation.
Ping An felt relieved. It must be that he used the formation this time, but he did not use it well enough. Didn’t the book say that the highest level of setting up a formation is to be able to set up the formation at will? Anything at hand, a tree or a stone can be the material for your formation.
Why is it necessary to use formation plates and the like?
His master sent someone to get him a good set of all the supplies for setting up the formation, and even bought a small suitcase to put them in. He basically never touched it after buying it, thinking that he would not need it for setting up the formation in his daily life. Who knew that he would be slapped in the face so soon.
If those people had entered the house quickly that night and found that they were not there, they would definitely chase them together with Alai and the other kidnappers. He could not run fast in the dark, and later he simply did not run. In this case, would he really be caught?
It seems that the formation still needs to be practiced.
All the dozen or so formations that have been practiced must be practiced well. Now it seems that the trap formation is the simplest and most important one.
Many large formations are never used in reality, but this kind of formation can save lives at critical moments.
Thinking back to the formations he had learned in his dream, he felt even more proficient with them. He closed his eyes and imagined that he was setting up formations one by one outside the city. The unprecedented sense of familiarity made him feel that this was not a dream at all.
"Master Ping'an, the second young master asked you to go to the living room. The Huang family has come to deliver gifts." Xiao Wu came over and said.
Ping'an's eyes lit up. After saving someone, it's okay to accept a gift that comes to your door, right?
"I see. Is it Master Huang?"
"Yes, and Mr. Huang, he specifically asked to see you. Mrs. Huang and two young ladies are also here, and they were taken to the backyard by the second young master's wife and young lady."
Ping An nodded and took small square steps with an elegant posture, neither too fast nor too slow.
Xiao Wu looked at him with pride. The nine-year-old master was already so noble. How handsome would he be in another nine years?
"Uncle Master, you called me?"
Mr. Huang stared at the child in front of him. Oh my god, how come this child is so handsome and noble? He has seen thousands of beautiful children, but not many are so good-looking. Not only is he good-looking, but he is also so smart at such a young age. He single-handedly rescued several children from six kidnappers, including his two granddaughters.
"Ping An, this is Mr. Huang. You have met him before. He is the eldest son of the Huang family. The Huang family is a well-known family of good deeds in Huainan City. They came here to see you today."
Ping An bowed and saluted: "Ping An greets Mr. Huang and Young Master Huang."
"Oh my, is this safety? My two granddaughters were saved because of you. I was going to pick them up myself that day, but I got so angry that I was bedridden. My old wife is still unable to get out of bed. Oh."
Ping An smiled lightly: "Master Huang, this is nothing. I just happened to meet him. How can I not save him? It's my duty, it's my duty."
"Our Huang family is also somewhat related to medicine. This is also fate. Second Young Master, my son and I brought some small gifts today. This one is for the Sun family, and this one is for Ping An. You must give me this face."
Sun Siyuan waved his hands again and again: "Master Huang, I will let the child accept the gift for Ping An. After all, I dare not refuse the gift from the elders. Our Sun family cannot accept your gift. How can we accept gifts for nothing?"
Ping An glanced at his uncle secretly. How could he be bad at socializing? He was obviously very good at it. He probably didn't want to steal the limelight from his elder brother. Was he actually a very smart person?
Young Master Huang said with a smile, "Second Master, you are being so polite. Although the two children were rescued safely, they have been well protected by the eldest master. Our Huang family will remember the Sun family's kindness for the rest of our lives. My second brother and his wife are still serving as officials outside. If we really can't find the children, how are we going to meet them?"
After saying this, Young Master Huang wiped away tears that might not even exist.
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills. Ping An has gained some experience today.
