Chapter 432 If you don’t want him to die, then you must keep him alive
It was a rare opportunity to have a half-day off, and Xu Yu didn't want Sang Zhixia to always be thinking about the Qi family's father and daughter, so he simply stayed at home and dragged Sang Zhixia around the streets for the entire afternoon, buying a bunch of miscellaneous trivial things.
By the time Xu Yu was finally willing to go back, dusk was falling.
Sang Zhixia had just walked in and hadn't even sat down when Bai Ziqing's voice rang out faintly, "You guys are having a great time, but it's a pity that some people can't even cry right now."
Bai Ziqing didn't know when he came back. After saying this, he leaned against the door frame with his arms folded, and glared at Xu Yu: "Is it fun?"
"You bought so many things, don't you feel tired carrying them?"
Xu Yu bought all kinds of junk on his own, but he didn't even look at them or bother to talk to them.
Bai Ziqing grumbled, unwilling to be left out. Just as he was about to continue provoking, he heard Sang Zhixia say, "I've been looking around for half a day and haven't found anything good. I heard from Xu Yu that you like to write in your spare time, so I bought you an inkstone and a piece of ink. Why don't you use it to play with it?"
With Bai Ziqing's identity, he has everything he likes.
But no matter how valuable the item is, if you are grateful to someone, you should still show some gratitude, which shows that they are thinking of you.
Sang Zhixia handed the inkstone she had bought to Bai Ziqing, and asked curiously at Bai Ziqing's surprised look, "Who's crying?"
"It's only one afternoon. What happened?"
Bai Ziqing hadn't expected to get a share of the purchase. Surprised, he refrained from stabbing Xu Yu. He sighed and said, "The news from the Governor's Office is that Bai Chengren seems to have had a stroke. He seems to be dying."
When Bai Chengren was carried back to the Governor's Mansion, he was covered in blood and looked very intimidating.
But at that time everyone thought it was just a momentary anger, and that it would be fine after taking a few doses of medicine. But they never expected that there would be another surprise.
Bai Chengren is the backbone of the Shu parasites and the key to the chaos in Shu.
Now, before they could even take action, the backbone of the team collapsed, and the rest of the useless people, big and small, were in a panic. They didn't care about anything and only wanted to rush to the Governor's Mansion.
These people relaxed, which made things much easier for them.
After Bai Ziqing finished sighing, he opened the box and touched the inkstone, which felt warm to the touch. He smiled and said, "Sister, why are you being so polite to me?"
Sang Zhixia was actually younger than Bai Ziqing, but she initially called her "elder sister" as if it was natural. Now that there were no outsiders to hide from, she was too lazy to change her words, and each time she called her, it became more and more natural.
Sang Zhixia put the clay figurines she bought for the little ones in a box and said with a smile, "You already call me sister. I bought gifts for my brothers and sisters, so why did I leave you out?"
"It's not a very good thing. You can keep it for fun first. When we return to the northwest, if we find something good, we will send it to you."
Bai Ziqing couldn't help laughing at Sang Zhixia's unconsciously coaxing tone. Then he looked at Xu Yu who was looking at him coldly, and couldn't help but curl his lips: "Look at my sister, then look at you."
"How on earth did you deserve that?"
Bai Ziqing clicked his tongue and stopped talking to Xu Yu.
Xu Yu chuckled with a forced smile, "Are you done?"
"Is it okay to leave now that we're done?"
Bai Ziqing had no intention of understanding at all. He walked to Sang Zhixia with the inkstone in his hand and sat down next to her, then poured her a cup of tea with a smile.
"You've been walking around for half a day, so you must be thirsty. These are some excellent scented tea leaves. Would you like to try them, sister?"
Sang Zhixia suppressed her laughter and said, "Is there anything else?"
Bai Ziqing cleared his throat, remembering something important, and placed the small box he had brought on the table. He said, "I'm here to run some errands for someone."
"Shunlai Winery delivered some wine here today. This thing came along with the wine, and it's specifically for you."
Bai Ziqing is the owner of this house, but he never drinks and did not send anyone to buy wine today.
Shunlai Winery is Mr. Qi's property, so anything sent there must be Mr. Qi's intention.
Sang Zhixia's eyes moved slightly. Seeing that there was no key to the small lock on the box, she asked curiously, "You only gave me the box?"
Bai Ziqing wasn't quite sure either. He hummed and stroked his chin, saying, "According to the person who brought it here, the old man said you could open it, so he left the box behind and left."
Sang Zhixia couldn't help but think of the scene when she unlocked the door for Old Qi. She was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Old man has a good memory."
"but……"
Qi Yan'er had just passed away, why would Mr. Qi think of sending her something?
Sang Zhixia found a piece of wire with suspicion and tried to poke it into the keyhole of the small lock.
Bai Ziqing was surprised when he saw this and said, "Sister, you know this too?"
"I know a little bit, but I don't have much chance to use it."
As Sang Zhixia spoke, he removed the small lock, opened the box and looked clearly at the things inside, then suddenly stopped.
The first thing you see in the seemingly small box is a gold note worth 100,000 taels.
A thick stack of gold notes was removed, and underneath was a land deed of astonishing thickness.
The tea garden, orchard, bank, wine shop and teahouse of all sizes are all filled with the properties that Mr. Qi has acquired over the years.
Bai Ziqing stopped teasing at the moment and found an excuse to leave with his inkstone.
Xu Yu looked at the things on the table with mixed feelings. For the first time, he felt uncomfortable even though he had received other people's money.
There was a letter at the bottom of the box, but when the envelope was opened, the first thing that fell out was a seal the size of a finger.
Sang Zhixia put the seal aside and quickly read the few words on the letter, feeling a heavy heart.
There are still many remnants of Qianyuan Villa, but these people did some head-loose things in their early years. Old Qi didn't want to cause trouble for Sang Zhixia, so he gave them real money.
But perhaps considering that Sang Zhixia might encounter trouble when he came to Japan, Mr. Qi also gave Sang Zhixia an extra seal that could represent his identity.
As long as they hold this seal, the remaining members of Qianyuan Villa will be able to see the owner in person, and no matter what request Sang Zhixia makes, it will be met to the best of their ability.
Apart from that, there was only one line of words left on the huge piece of letter paper: Take care, girl.
Sang Zhixia's throat suddenly became blocked, and she subconsciously turned to look at Xu Yu: "These things... I..."
"I don't want it."
It's not that I don't like money, nor am I being too noble, I just simply feel that this thing is too hot to handle.
Mr. Qi had only one daughter, Qi Yan'er. After his beloved daughter died, he no longer had any worries. From then on, he was free from all worries and was not bothered by life or death. Money and property were just external things and he could hardly think about them anymore.
But Sang Zhixia had no right to accept such things.
Xu Yu squatted down and held Sang Zhixia's shaking hand. Although he had a smile on his face, his words were snarky: "I told you this old guy was troublesome, but you insisted I wouldn't let you talk nonsense."
"Look, he's not happy with his own life, and he's always finding ways to make things difficult for others. If he really commits suicide, wouldn't that be too easy for him?"
Sang Zhixia sniffed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and said in a muffled voice, "Can you keep it?"
"Whether he can keep her or not is not up to him."
Xu Yu raised his head and nuzzled Sang Zhixia's nose, saying softly, "Wait until I catch him. If he doesn't obey, I'll give him some medicine so he doesn't have the strength to commit suicide."
"What do you mean by leaving it to fate?"
"If you don't want him to die, then he must live for me."
