Chapter 48 Zhao Jingxing Shows Off, Stepmother Sets Her Mind on Killing Him
The raincoat, held high in Zhao Jingxing's hand, was as tall as a person.
Everyone who saw this couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
Wow! It's clothing that you can't see!
"Mom, look, this dress is glowing!"
The day after Jiang Ling gave Zhao Jingxing the raincoat, a torrential downpour indeed began.
The scheduled time for returning to Beijing to report on my work cannot be changed.
He had no choice but to take out the raincoat that Jiang Ling had given him and put it on.
He got home late that night and was busy packing his bags, so he didn't have time to open the item called a raincoat.
I thought it was probably woven from something like a straw raincoat.
I didn't realize how amazing it was until I opened it!
This raincoat is completely transparent and very thin, so you can see at a glance what's inside, like a transparent packaging bag for some pastries.
It is thicker and more durable than the packaging bag, and it won't tear no matter how you pull it.
The waterproof and windproof performance is simply perfect!
Wearing these won't affect your horseback riding or walking at all!
Zhao Jingxing walked in the rain wearing a straw hat and a raincoat, yet his clothes remained completely dry.
Until the rain stopped, he was completely dry except for his shoes.
The craftsmanship of this raincoat is unparalleled in the entire city; it can be described as priceless!
Zhao Wuzhou hadn't had high hopes to begin with, but he was still shocked to see this!
The old butler, who was standing guard with an umbrella, spoke up.
"This old servant has seen this thing in the young master's courtyard, and even dared to touch it. In all my years, I have never seen such a material. It looks thin and transparent, but it is very tough and cannot be torn no matter how you try to pull it."
At the time, this old servant also wondered to himself, "Can such a thin layer really keep out the rain?" But the young master said that this item was specially made to protect against rain and wind, and its effect was extraordinary. This old servant's knowledge is limited, and he dared not make a rash judgment, but since it is something the young master cherishes, there must be a reason for it."
Hearing what the butler said, Zhao Wuzhou's face broke into a smile.
"Then put it on, Jingxing, help me put it on."
"yes."
The raincoat has a zipper and buttons, making it very convenient to wear.
Simply slip it on, zip it up, and fasten the waterproof buckle.
In an instant, Zhao Wuzhou seemed to be surrounded by a halo.
“Wow, Father’s body is glowing!” Zhao Jinghui, the half-brother, couldn’t help but exclaim.
"Father is glowing! Father is so handsome!" The youngest half-sister, Zhao Jingxiu, couldn't help but jump up and clap her hands.
Zhao Wuzhou was surprised to find that the raincoat was made of such a thin material that it felt like he wasn't wearing anything at all.
It feels smooth and cool to the touch.
He tentatively stretched his arm towards the dripping eaves outside the door. Large raindrops pounded on his raincoat sleeves, but the water droplets gathered and rolled off as if hitting lotus leaves, without penetrating at all! His court robes remained completely dry on his arm!
It's actually waterproof!
That's amazing!
Even Zhao Wuzhou, who rarely showed his emotions, couldn't help but show surprise.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Zhan could no longer maintain her composure.
She had seen the shimmering brocade in the city; a single piece was worth a fortune. This thing not only looked extraordinary but also had a waterproof effect, making its price comparable to the shimmering brocade!
Where did Zhao Jingxing get such a wealthy friend?
Before Zhao Wuzhou could finish his surprise, Zhao Jingxing picked up the black spotlight again.
"Thud—"
With a soft click, he pressed the switch.
A beam of bright light shot out from the lamp, illuminating the dark, rainy night. It immediately carved a path of light.
The stone path and the outlines of the flowers and trees in the courtyard were clearly visible, and even the raindrops falling from the sky were revealed in the light.
Zhao Jinghui couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Mom, look! The sun has fallen down!"
The mistress, concubines, sisters-in-law, maids, and servants present were all amazed by the scene!
My God! What kind of magical treasure is this?!
How can it be like capturing the sun, illuminating wherever it wants?!
"With this, my father is no longer afraid of not being able to see clearly on a wet and slippery night."
Zhao Jingxing handed the flashlight to his surprised father.
Zhao Wuzhou took the heavy little cylinder and was once again shocked.
He leaned closer to look at the glass, and saw that it contained neither candlelight nor oil lamp.
The light was so bright!
He tried to move the spotlight, and the beam of light followed him like a shadow, revealing everything wherever it pointed.
Even though he was used to seeing treasures, he couldn't help but be shocked!
"If I don't use it, how will I blow it out?"
This was the first time Zhao Wuzhou had ever asked his son a question.
Zhao Jingxing stepped forward and gently pressed the switch, and the beam of light went out immediately.
Press it again, and the light returns.
"Father, just take this in. If you need it again, just put it away."
Zhao Wuzhou tried pressing the button a few times, turning it on and off repeatedly. His mouth never closed.
His eyes were filled with unbelievable astonishment!
It took Zhao Jingtao a long time to recover from his surprise, and jealousy instantly ignited in his eyes!
He was already speechless with amazement from that crystal-like waterproof raincoat, but this spotlight that could instantly cleave through the darkness was even more miraculous!
Where did Zhao Jingxing get so many treasures?
The old butler reminded him, "Master, it's getting late, we should set off."
Zhao Wuzhou snapped back to reality and said seriously, "Yes, yes, yes! We can't be late."
He looked at Zhao Jingxing with a look of satisfaction on his face and patted his eldest son's shoulder forcefully.
"Jingxing, it's truly admirable that you have such a kind heart, and even more so that you're willing to give such a precious treasure to your father. Your father was right about you!"
"This is what I should do."
After Zhao Wuzhou left, his two younger siblings also gathered around him.
"Big brother is amazing!"
"Big brother's things glow!"
His two concubines also praised him highly.
Liu looked at him with tears in her eyes.
Suddenly I realized her son has grown up!
Zhao Jingxing shared the few remaining White Rabbit milk candies he had with his younger siblings.
When the legitimate daughter, Zhao Jingrong, saw the White Rabbit milk candy in her younger brother and sister-in-law's hands, her mouth watered.
But she dared not go forward, for her mother would scold her.
A few days ago, my older brother brought back a lot of snacks and shared them with the family.
The mother accepted them outwardly, but secretly ordered them to be thrown away.
It was only because her younger sister shared a piece of candy with her that she was able to taste such a delicious flavor.
Zhan and Zhao Jingtao stood to the side, their faces pale and their chests tight with tension.
Mr. Zhan was filled with remorse!
Despite all the precautions, Zhao Jingxing unexpectedly stole the spotlight this time!
They originally thought that by persuading the master to send him to the military camp, they could take the opportunity to kill this brat!
As the little brat grew up, he even made a name for himself. Seeing that the master's attitude towards him had become better and better over the past two years, she became more and more resentful!
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have let him be born in the first place!
after......
Mr. Zhan made a silent vow: there would be no future for him!
Although Zhao Jingtao was furious, he quickly came to his senses.
Now that these things belong to my father, and he loves me the most, I only need to ask, and it won't be long before these two treasures are mine!
After all, he was the legitimate son!
