The thin and dark old man's behavior was too abnormal. The national teacher chased after him with his short legs. The prince and the black boy also followed. Several of them ran quickly towards the backyard.
Mrs. Du was about to shout when she saw this, but Prime Minister Du pulled her back and said, "Madam! My husband is hungry. Let's go to the kitchen and make some food! Now that we have some money, it's time to have a meal."
Seeing her husband's greedy face when he talked about rice, Mrs. Du's eyes were red. He was the prime minister, but because of Du Fuchun's greed, their family had to eat porridge every day.
But it's good, I finally see the true face of some people. It's easy for people to add icing on the cake, but it's hard to help people in need. For her, it's easy to share wealth, but it's harder to keep poverty.
In the past, the maids who were slightly pretty in wealthy families wanted to become their masters' concubines. But when their families became poorer, they didn't even want to be maids and left crying to buy their freedom.
Even when all the concubines had left, the husband was not discouraged at all. Instead, he said that this was a good thing as he no longer had to deal with those women's flattery and vying for his favor all the time.
The thin and dark old man arrived at the warehouse and with a wave of his hand, he released all the things he had taken away.
In a short time, Prime Minister Du's storehouse was full, the kitchen was full, the rice jars were full, and the wine jars were full. All the valuable furniture, calligraphy and paintings, writing brushes, gold and silver treasures in the house were sent back.
Mrs. Du walked into the kitchen and looked at the meat on the stove, the prepared dishes, and the steaming rice. She was completely stunned.
"Master! What happened? Did all the things in the house come back?"
Prime Minister Du nodded, picked up a bowl, filled it with rice, and handed it to Madam Du: "Sit down and eat first, and then go back after you finish eating. They are busy now."
Madam Du looked like she was in a dream. She looked at the hot rice in her hands and the hot dishes on the table and said in a daze, "Master! Do you know what's going on? Why do I feel like I've seen a ghost?"
Prime Minister Du filled a bowl of rice for himself and called his wife, "Eat first and talk while you eat. Our things were taken away by that skinny old man, and he came to our house to return the things.
He dared not not return the favor as the Imperial Master had asked him to. Madam! You must be respectful to the Imperial Master in the future. Don’t underestimate her because she is young. She is very powerful.”
"Ah! So that's how it is." Madam Du seemed to have just woken up from a dream and lowered her head to eat. "Then let's eat quickly so that we can go and thank the Imperial Master after we're done."
Then I thought, no, they didn't eat, and the three children didn't eat either. I can't just focus on filling my own stomach, I have to prepare some food for the three children.
"Husband, you eat first. I'll prepare something for the children."
Prime Minister Du grabbed her again and said, "Don't panic, Madam, eat first. I am hungry. Only when I am full can I have the strength to cook for the children."
Mrs. Du thought about it and realized that she was indeed very hungry, so she decided to eat something first.
Just as they sat down and picked up the bowl, Li Sizu came with Chu Xiaoxiao and the charcoal-haired man. Mrs. Du and Prime Minister Du felt embarrassed, put down their bowls and chopsticks, stood up to salute, but were stopped by Li Sizu.
Seeing that the kitchen was equipped with everything, he was very happy. He knew that his grandparents would no longer be poor.
Milk ball walked to the dining table and kept sniffing: "Fish, eat, eat."
[Wow! West Lake Vinegar Fish, I like it, I want to eat it. ]
Mrs. Du put down her bowl and chopsticks, served her some rice, picked out some boneless fish meat and put it in her bowl. Milk ball ate it with a grunt, looking very happy.
Prime Minister Du also served food to Li Sizu and Heitantou, and they all sat down to eat together.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Milk Ball patted his belly, happy and satisfied, and kept praising: "Fish! Delicious!"
Mrs. Du sighed: "The chef who made this fish ran away a long time ago. I didn't expect to be able to eat the food he made today. It's really rare."
The charcoal-haired man replied halfheartedly, "They were all taken away by the yellow-skinned guy and then taken out again."
"Yellow-skinned man?" Prime Minister Du looked at the dark-haired man in astonishment, then looked around, "Is that skinny old man a yellow-skinned man?"
"Yes!" Having said that, he couldn't pick it up, so the black-haired guy simply continued, "That old man is the yellow-skinned guy, don't be afraid, he doesn't hurt anyone, he just teases people.
He took your things so that you could help him deal with the hateful chief. The daughter born to the chief's wife was the reincarnation of his granddaughter, who was abandoned by the chief and eaten by wild beasts.
Huangpizi's granddaughter's life span was not yet complete, and the underworld refused to accept her soul, so she disappeared into thin air. In order to seek revenge, he went to the clan leader's house.
The great revenge was achieved. The master asked him to return all the things, and he dared not disobey. All the things that disappeared from your house were returned."
Mrs. Du was stunned by what she heard. She felt like she was listening to a story, but she also knew about the yellow-skinned creature. It was said that if you offended it, it would take revenge.
No wonder the clan leader was beaten to death, it turned out that the yellow-skinned guy was plotting against him.
You deserve it.
He couldn't even tolerate his own daughter and had to throw her out to be eaten by wild beasts. Now, he got killed too.
Prime Minister Du asked in surprise: "Then, then, where is that dark and thin old man?"
Li Sizu replied: "He left. He doesn't belong here. He went back to where he belongs."
It wasn't him who said this, it was the yellow-skinned man who said this. After returning all the things, he came to Chu Xiaoxiao and bowed deeply to him.
"I have finished my business here, and it is time for me to go back to where I belong."
Chu Xiaoxiao nodded at him: "Go ahead!"
The man walked outside. Although he looked old, he walked very fast and disappeared in a short while.
Prime Minister Du bowed to Chu Xiaoxiao and saluted: "I thank the Imperial Master for his help. If it weren't for the Imperial Master, I'm afraid my family would not be at peace."
[Okay, okay. If you really want to thank me, give me something tangible.]
Li Sizu took out a towel and wiped her face and hands, then looked up at Prime Minister Du: "Grandfather! Sister Xiaoxiao likes things made of gold."
The black-haired man frowned and smiled slyly, thinking, "How dare you say that! You are not polite at all!" Knowing that my master likes golden things, I kept trying to get them for him.
"Yes, I understand." Prime Minister Du showed a gentle smile on his face and called Chu Xiaoxiao, "I happen to have a three-foot-tall golden fortune tree in my private storehouse. Why not present it to the Imperial Master!"
[A fortune tree? Made of gold? Three feet tall? I have to take it. It must be beautiful. I like it.]
Several people went to Prime Minister Du's private vault and brought back everything inside, not a single thing was missing. The three-foot-tall fortune tree stood in a cabinet in the corner. When they opened the cabinet door and took it out, it blinded Chu Xiaoxiao's eyes.
The trunk and branches of this tree are made entirely of gold, and the fruits it bears are various kinds of gems, hanging in a colorful array, which is truly stunning.
The little girl was stunned, then smiled with her eyes curved.
