Chapter 353 You kid, you are a talent! Li Liu patted Qin Nai...
Li Liu patted Grandma Qin's hand and soothed her, "What's the problem? The young master is very powerful. Who dares to mess with him? It's Master Qin who has someone pick a date. July is a good time to move the grave. They'll be back then."
"Well, that's fine, then we'll clean up Xiao Qin's house and wait for them to come back."
"Whose grave is being moved?"
On the South Mountain, the Xiao Qin family has two graves, one is for Grandma Qin, and the other is for Qin Feiyu's "daughter-in-law".
Even though the two are not Qin Feiyu's biological mother, it is undeniable that the love this mother and daughter have for Qin Run is comparable to that of their own grandson and son.
Before Grandma Qin died, she was not worried about dying in a foreign land and not being able to return home. What she was most worried about was her two young grandsons.
Perhaps because she knew her end was near, during that period, Grandma Qin went from house to house in the Qin family, and personally asked everyone in the Qin family to take good care of her two grandsons.
When Qin Run was unable to support the Qin family, it was the Qin family who helped take care of Grandma Qin's descendants. Qin An was looked after by the village chief's wife for more than half a month, and the men of the Qin family took turns delivering firewood to him. For the Qin family, these were just things they could do, but they were such a heartwarming gesture to Qin Run.
It was for this reason that Qin Run, who was now in the capital, learned that Li Liu would pass through Qingling County, and specially prepared a gift for him to visit the village on his way.
Li Liu thought of the longing in Ange'er and the others' eyes when they learned he was going back to the village, then looked at the Qin family's children and took a breath. "It's to move grandma's grave. The master said that that day is only suitable for moving grandma's grave. But the young master told me to come back to the village when I return and take the children to Beijing to play. When he comes back, he can bring them back with him. Are you willing?"
"What?" Aunt Qin glanced at her grandchildren, whose expressions had clearly turned from sadness to joy. "Isn't this too much trouble?"
"That's right. With so many children, if they go there, can Run Ge'er take care of them all? Besides, they are still young and don't understand many things. Yun Fan is different now. It would be bad if they cause trouble for Yun Fan."
"Since the young master said so, he must be able to take good care of the child. You can discuss it with the child. I won't be back for another month."
Li Liuyi had been gone for more than a month. When he returned to Dali Village, he was shocked. He had thought that it would be good enough to have more than a dozen children who could go to Beijing. After all, the oldest of these children were only nine or ten years old. Those older than them could not go. There was a lot of work to do at home, and the Qin family did not dare to let all the children go to trouble Xu Yunfan. But if every household sent one child, there would be at least twenty children.
Li Liu arranged two large carriages for more than twenty children and returned to the capital on time. He placed the children on the other side, and Xu Yunfan would definitely be surprised when he arrived.
How could he not see the disappointment that flashed across the young master's eyes when he saw him and Jing Mingze beside him just now?
Our young master is popular with children. Children like him and he also likes children.
When they were in the village, the Qin family had no shortage of wild fruits to eat in the summer. They could not even finish eating all the chestnuts at home. This was because the Qin children knew that Xu Yunfan liked these, so they sent them to him every day.
Xu Yunfan felt a little lost. It seemed that Dadan and the others didn't come. He had been waiting for so long, but in the end it was all in vain. It would be a lie to say that he was not disappointed.
Sudden……
"Brother Xu!"
"Brother Xu!"
"Xu Guo!"
"Brother Xu!"
"Brother Xu, look here, we are here."
"Wow... Xu Guo, we miss you~"
A group of childish voices were heard, and several warriors were standing beside the children to take care of them.
Xu Yunfan was startled and turned his head to look. The disappointment in his eyes was replaced by surprise. He was happy, and a bright smile appeared on his cheeks. He waved to someone, and soon, a warrior dressed in black brocade clothes came over with a big bag.
When the top scholar was paraded through the streets, outsiders were not allowed to approach. There were guards on both sides of the street to maintain order, so no one dared to make a fuss.
Wu Shi handed the package to the yamen runner beside Xu Yunfan, who then handed the package to Xu Yunfan.
Xu Yunfan opened the package and found red toffee inside.
Since cooperating with Demonno, Qin Run has opened several factories in Dongwu Kingdom, including a milk powder factory, a milk candy factory, and a wool processing factory... The initial investment in these factories was a bit large, but a few days ago, the first batch of milk candy and milk powder has been shipped back to Beijing.
Previously, Dongwu Kingdom also wanted to sell milk candies to Dayan Dynasty, but the sales were not ideal. Qin Run praised the milk candies brought by Zhali last time, but it was just a courtesy.
The white sugar of Dongwu Kingdom is even more precious than that of Dayan Dynasty. The milk candies they make are naturally not made with white sugar. Their milk candies are called sugar, but they are not very sweet when eaten.
One of the steps in Xu Yunfan's method of making milk candy is to add white sugar. The milk candy made in this way has a rich milky flavor and is sweet, making it the most popular.
This batch of milk candies has not been put on the shelves yet. Several families including the Xiao, Qin, Fang, Xie, and Qi families have finished eating them and still come to ask if there are any more. They don't let Xu Yunfan give them away and are willing to buy them with money.
Take advantage of today to do some publicity.
Xu Yunfan grabbed a handful of milk lollipops and threw them lightly towards the children of Dadan. "Little ones, catch them. Brother Xu will treat you to milk lollipops."
“Oh~”
"Wow~"
"Brother Xu is so handsome!"
"Brother Xu is awesome!"
"Brother Xu, we love you~~"
As the milk candies with red packaging bags fell from the sky, the children immediately picked them up. They were not in a hurry to eat them, but looked at Xu Yunfan again, screaming and shouting, their power was comparable to that of thousands of big white ducks.
Some children picked up four or five lollipops, but they did not keep them all to themselves. Instead, they glanced at other children and shared them with those who had nothing or only one lollipop. Even the warriors who were in charge of looking after them were "forced" to take a few lollipops from each of them.
Several warriors looked down at the lollipops in their palms, then at the children jumping for joy, and finally understood why their master was willing to bring these children to the capital to play.
In fact, Xu Yunfan asked Li Liu to bring them over. Firstly, he, Qin Run and the children really missed them. Secondly, when sending the Qin family back, Xu Yunfan promised to go back and visit them when he had time after the provincial examination. However, Xiao Hengzhi couldn't bear to see him wasting time all day, so he found him a job and made him work like a slave every day.
Xu Yunfan scattered a few handfuls of milk candies along the way, causing the children who came to join in the fun to scream and cry. It sounded like someone was slaughtering a New Year pig.
Everyone kept shouting "Mr. Xu" and "Xu the top scholar", but no one called out "second place" or "third place".
Shen Ruchun didn't care. After all, he was in his twenties and had long passed the age where these kids and boys and girls would like him.
On the contrary, Ji Ning appeared calm on the surface, but in his heart he cursed Xu Yunfan countless times. It was a good time to parade in the streets, but Xu Yunfan had to do this. He, the third place winner, became a green leaf to complement the flowers.
As they reached another spot, a broken voice broke through the clamor, "Father!"
Xu Yunfan didn't look over, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
Xiaobao was held in Qin Run's arms, calling out "Dad" again and again, hoping that Xu Yunfan would look over quickly.
Xiaobao screamed heartbreakingly, his face flushed and he was out of breath. Qin Run couldn't help but say, "Xiaobao, stop screaming. Be careful you might become mute tonight."
"Daddy, why didn't father look over here? Is it because Xiaobao's voice was too soft and he couldn't hear it?"
Qin An and Qin Mu also started shouting, but no matter how they shouted, Xu Yunfan pretended to be deaf and dumb and pretended not to hear.
Seeing that the champion was about to pass by, Qin Run didn't bother to comfort the three children and shouted, "Xu Zhuangyuan!"
Xu Yunfan couldn't hear and continued to sprinkle candy.
"Master Xu!"
Xu Yunfan still couldn't hear anything, and he looked left and right but couldn't see the right place.
"Yunfan!"
Xu Yunfan still couldn't hear anything. He smiled here and there, but he didn't smile at the anxious and anxious group of people, one adult and three children.
Qin Run became anxious and blurted out "husband".
The whole air seemed to be quiet. Xu Yunfan smiled widely, his eyes curved, unable to hide his pride. He answered loudly, "I'm here!"
After seeing this scene, Qin Run had nothing to understand. It was obvious that this person did it on purpose.
"Daddy, father is looking here, father~" Xiaobao stretched out his hand in the direction of Xu Yunfan: "Father, Xiaobao also wants candy."
"Brother, Brother An wants one too."
"Brother Mu wants one too, Brother Fu~"
Xu Yunfan smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you. I'll give it all to you. Then what about my dear husband? Do you want one?"
The word "dear" can be said to have lit the fuse.
"ah!!!"
I don’t know which guy couldn’t stand Xu Yunfan’s doting smile and screamed with envy.
All of a sudden, Qin Run became the center of everyone's attention. His face was red as blood, and his breathing quickened. He didn't say anything, but just kept blushing. After a while, he moved his lips and said, "Yes!"
Xu Yunfan took out four palm-sized rainbow lollipops. Although these were not milk candies, they were made by him and were beautifully packaged. They were the most suitable gifts for his brothers. As for Xiaobao, he was just a little fat pig mixed in with his brothers. Don't worry about his identity as a man.
"Come on, take it. Brother Fu will give you some candy. Remember to brush your teeth after you finish eating. Remember?"
"I'll remember that. Thank you, Goff."
"So good." Xu Yunfan praised, and his eyes fell on Qin Run again. He put his fist to the corner of his lips and smiled meaningfully, and glanced at Qin Run secretly a few times as if he was shy and didn't dare to look.
Qin Run held Xiaobao in one hand and a lollipop in the other. His Adam's apple was inexplicably dry and he was stunned.
He was completely unaware of the envious glances from others, his mind and eyes filled with Xu Yunfan's shy and timid gaze.
"Brother Yunfan." Xiao Dangdang, who was carrying a broken basket with a few rotten vegetable leaves in one hand, was very excited to see Xu Yunfan. He didn't know how inappropriate it would be in the eyes of outsiders for him to greet Xu Yunfan in his current identity.
He only knew that Daddy Xiaoguo and the others had taught him that Brother Yunfan was a good man. Because of Brother Yunfan and Brother Run, they had warm clothes to wear, warm quilts to cover themselves with, and delicious meat to eat. Therefore, they must be polite and polite when they meet people. They must remember to call people and say thank you.
Sun Xiaoguo and his husband treated these children, who were discarded by others, as treasures. Even though they were poor, Li Yun still bought them pens, ink, paper and inkstone. Not much, just enough for him to write in, and then let the children write with him.
Li Yun used to be a rich boy. Later, in order to win over business partners, his father married him to a wealthy businessman in his thirties. The businessman was naturally very excited about the fact that he had just given birth to a seventeen-year-old boy. He stayed at Li Yun's house for a long time. Later, Li Yun was envied by other concubines, who thought he was a vixen. Li Yun was targeted in the backyard, left alone and helpless, and finally someone gave him a sterilizing drug.
Ten years passed. Except for the first two months, her husband still felt a little fresh about her. Later, after several beauties were brought into the house one after another, this man only saw the new ones smile and never saw the old ones cry.
Li Yun was a widow for ten years, and was later kicked out of the house because his wife called him a hen that didn't lay eggs.
Li Yun cannot return to the Li family. If the Li family is his home, why has no one cared about how he is doing over the years?
He was unable to have children and was alone and helpless back then, but now he has so many children. These children are as unfortunate as he is, so Li Yun wants to be better to them. Xiao Dangdang seems to like painting very much, so Li Yun made a special exception and let him use a brush once.
Xiao Dangdang held the brush for a long time. Li Yun was too busy and had forgotten about it by the evening. Therefore, he naturally didn't know that Xiao Dangdang had made a fake silver note.
He had seen this silver note being used by some gentlemen to pay bills when he was begging outside. He remembered it after just a few glances. He remembered deeply that with this note, he could eat delicious food and buy beautiful and warm clothes. He gave the silver note to Daddy Xiaoguo, but Daddy Xiaoguo told him that it was fake and could not be spent.
How is this possible?
Oh, by the way, there was a red mark on the other banknotes, but he only had a brush, and the ones he drew were also small black square shapes.
The young Dangdang didn’t know that a mistake of even a millimeter could lead to a huge difference between the two figures.
This was the first thing Xiao Dangdang had ever drawn. He couldn't bear to throw it away, so he kept it with him all the time. Today, when he suddenly saw Xu Yunfan, he was so happy that he felt around and couldn't find anything good as a gift. He took out the "silver note" for some reason and said, "Brother Yunfan, this is for you."
On the way, a short, ragged child appeared from nowhere. Several yamen runners wanted to scold and stop him, but Xu Yunfan stopped them with a wave of his hand.
Xu Yunfan dismounted and knelt on one knee in front of Xiao Dangdang. He looked at the child's palms, which were covered with calluses and scars. He carefully held a folded piece of paper in his hands and handed it to him. He was very curious, "What is this? Is it for your brother?"
"It's a silver note painted by Dangdang. It's for my brother."
"What the hell?" Xu Yunfan unfolded it and took a look. Oh wow, it was incredible. The stripes, characters, etc. on the banknote were not exactly the same as the fifty-liang banknotes he had seen before, but they were almost the same.
Immediately, Xu Yunfan's eyes lit up, "You kid, you are a talent."
God, if he hadn't looked carefully, he would have almost failed to realize that this was a fake banknote.
Did God really close one window for Xiao Dangdang and open another one for him? Look at his skills. If he were in Longguo, he might be a talent who could eat the country's food for free.
"Talent?"
Xu Yunfan scratched Dangdang's small nose. He was not going to give a perfunctory reply just because Dangdang was slow to react, but he really didn't have time today. "Yes, our Dangdang is very talented. His paintings are very beautiful. But this one is not good-looking. Our Dangdang should draw more interesting things. I'll come to you next time when I'm free!"
"Brother Yunfan will go find Dangdang?"
"Of course, didn't brother go there once last time? Did you forget, little Dangdang?"
Dangdang hurriedly shook his head, his hope mixed with cautious longing. "I haven't forgotten, but Daddy said that Brother Yunfan is very busy and can't visit us often. Brother, will you be free in the future? If not, it doesn't matter. Dangdang can come to see brother, can't you?"
Xu Yunfan: “…”
Suddenly, Xu Yunfan couldn't laugh anymore. His chest felt swollen as if something was about to burst out, and the pain made his eyes red.
He knew that most of the children in the orphanage were lacking love. Once they received warmth, even if this love was just a spur of the moment or intentional, they would remember it for a long time.
But Xu Yunfan has no regrets.
Since God has given him a heart that sympathizes with the suffering of all living beings and the ability to save people from suffering, why should he be afraid?
He sniffed and forced a smile. "Okay, I'll come visit you when I have time. Don't be afraid, I remember you. I remember each of your names and what you look like. You don't have to worry about forgetting you. Little Dangdang, come here, I'll give you some candy. Take these candies back and share them with your other brothers and sisters. Got it? I'm busy, so I'll come visit you another day, okay?"
Xu Yunfan grabbed a few handfuls of candies and put them into Dangdang's basket. He touched his face reluctantly, stood up and pressed it with his index finger. Soon, Dangdang was carried away by a martial servant.
Xu Yunfan was quiet for a moment after getting on the horse. Perhaps it was time for him to think carefully about the future of these children.
Brothers are no worse than men. Just look at the Qin An brothers and Dangdang. If these children can receive better education from childhood, they will surely achieve great things in the future.
"Oh, it's Dangdang, he's here too." Qin An asked.
Qin Run: "Dangdang should be out picking up vegetable leaves. Maybe he heard the commotion here and came over to take a look."
On this side, Xu Yunfan was still parading in the streets, and on the other side, Xiao Hengzhi and others had already taken the guests who came to congratulate him to Yunrun Restaurant, where everyone was eating and drinking.
Qin Run learned that Qin's child had arrived and had received candy. Xu Yunfan had already swam over, so it was really inconvenient for them to run over again. Holding the chubby Xiaobao and two half-grown brothers, it was really inconvenient. "Xiaobao, do you still want to go see your brother-in-law?"
"Daddy, don't you want to go?"
"Not really. There are too many people here. Besides, Dadan and the others have already arrived. Daddy has to take them home to rest. What about you? Do you want to go back with Big Brother or go see Brother Fu?"
Qin An and Qin Mu were in a dilemma when they heard that Dadan and the others were coming. They wanted to see their brother-in-law, but they also wanted to go find their friends right away. It was Xiaobao who made the final decision. "Let's go home and see Uncle Dadan. Dad has already seen him, so there's no need to see him again."
"Okay, let's go." When Qin Run found Li Liu holding Xiaobao, Li Liu and Jing Mingze had already taken Dadan and the others to an open area, waiting for Qin Run to come and make arrangements.
There is definitely not enough space for more than twenty children to live in Xiao Qin's house. Fortunately, there are rooms in the employee dormitory building near the Food City, which is just right for arranging the children.
They hadn't seen each other for nearly a year. As soon as they met, Qin An and Qin's child hugged each other, crying and laughing, chattering and jumping around every now and then, it was very lively.
