Chapter 104 Incompetent Rulers



Then I remembered the promise I made to the little boy yesterday, to let him try this good stuff.

They filled two small wooden buckets to the brim.

"Da Ya, do me a favor, let's take this to the next room together."

"good"

Da Ya wouldn't let Su Muyao come, and instead had Er Ya carry the small wooden bucket that Su Muyao was carrying as well, and then they walked out.

Su Muyao followed behind. Da Ya and Er Ya put down their things next door and ran back, leaving Su Muyao standing there.

Long Yuan examined the two small buckets of things that Su Muyao had brought over.

"What is that dark thing of yours?"

"It's dessert, come and try it."

Long Yuan took a step back and said, "I won't try this dessert. It looks like something for kids like you."

He rolled his eyes, as if he wasn't a child.

Unwilling to accept that the food she had worked so hard to make was not eaten by the little brat, she specially brought it over to him.

Su Muyao directly scooped out a spoonful with her hand. When Long Yuan saw this, he tried to back away, but he was still forced to take a bite.

He never imagined that this little bundle of joy would grab his hair and shove the thing into his mouth.

Yingyi wanted to step forward but was stopped by the butler. Children should play with other children. He can't just keep a cold face all day and have no human touch.

Longyuan felt the icy coolness upon entering his mouth, and the taste was refreshingly sweet and icy.

He, who always ate with great manners, chewed gently a few times before swallowing.

Seeing him like this, Su Muyao burst out laughing and scooped up another spoonful to feed the little boy.

Long Yuan didn't care about her laughter and just kept eating until his ears turned red.

He coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment before asking, "What's this called?"

"This is called grass jelly, and it's made from a kind of grass grown on the mountain."

"Then why is it ice?" Long Yuan wasn't stupid. This didn't taste like any kind of grass that was slightly cool; it was clearly ice that had just melted.

After saying "secret," she skipped away and went back.

Thinking that he hadn't told his family about accepting a hundred taels of gold from him, he figured he'd have to go up the mountain to find him a wolf cub.

I woke up the little wolf cub that was still lying on the firewood, and saw its huge head slowly lift up.

It let out a pitiful howl.

"Alright, alright, let's go see your parents."

Upon hearing this, the little wolf instantly perked up and jumped down.

I leaned down so the little one could climb up.

And so, as Su Muyao rode the little wolf past Long Yuan's house, she even whistled.

His roguish appearance infuriated Long Yuan.

The thought of being easily swindled out of a hundred taels of gold by this little dumpling made him grit his teeth in anger.

I didn't take much with me when I left the palace, and this little guy is really asking for an exorbitant amount.

He has no idea that he offered the money himself, not that someone else asked for it.

Once on the mountain, Su Muyao quickly picked out a black wolf cub from the pack.

The little brat was extremely thin and looked malnourished. I took out a bowl of spiritual spring water from my spatial storage and gave it to the little guy.

The little guy was huffing and puffing, his whole head buried in the bowl.

The wolf cub's parents were overjoyed. They had always thought the wolf cub wouldn't survive, but unexpectedly, it was adopted by this human child.

They knew that this human child was feeding the wolf king and queen's cubs very well.

Especially when the divine water was taken out, their saliva dripped from their big mouths as soon as the water was taken out of the baby's mouth.

If it weren't for the wolf king and queen being there to keep watch, the entire pack of wolves might have fought over this bowl of magic water.

Before taking the little black wolf away, Su Muyao generously gave them a whole bucket of spiritual spring water.

When Su Muyao gave the little black wolf to Long Yuan, she saw that the little boy's entire face was black.

"I gave you a hundred taels of gold, and you gave me this ugly thing."

Long Yuan had originally imagined bringing back a majestic and powerful wolf.

Even if it was the worst, it would still be a wolf cub, but who would have thought it would be such a weak and ugly little thing.

"Wolf cubs, they're all like this when they're little, right?"

After saying that, as if afraid the little boy would regret it, she stuffed the little thing in her hand into Long Yuan's arms.

The wolf cub in Long Yuan's arms struggled desperately, and Su Muyao rubbed its head.

"Sweetie, I'll come to see you often from now on," she said, then turned and left.

Looking at the little wolf cub in his arms, whose aggrieved expression he could see, Long Yuan sighed softly.

"I didn't say anything, and you're already acting all wronged." After saying that, she threw the wolf cub on the ground, turned around, and angrily went back to her room.

"Yingyi will build him a temporary little nest first, and then build him a proper nest after the house over there is built."

"yes".

Back in his room, Long Yuan grew angrier the more he thought about it. Looking at the grass jelly on the table, he thought, "Then don't blame me for mooching your food every day from now on."

Unable to sleep at night, Su Muyao sat on the roof of her little house, gazing at the starry sky.

This is the starry sky I could only see when I was a child in my previous life, and I can no longer see it after I grow up a little.

He took out a bunch of food from his spatial storage, placed it on the roof, and lay down on it, holding a Coke in one hand and making a toasting gesture towards the moon.

Before long, a dark shadow suddenly flew in front of him.

"Damn it!"

She had struggled for ages to climb onto the roof late at night, after everyone in her family was asleep, and this guy just flew up there.

"Little one, this is not safe. Call me 'brother' and I'll carry you down."

"Tch, I finally made it up here and haven't even had enough of this beautiful view yet, why would I want to go down?"

As they were talking, Long Yuan noticed a pile of things he had never seen before, and the little dumpling was holding an object he had never seen before.

"What's this?"

"This is called 'fairy water,' would you like to try some? It costs one tael of gold per bottle."

"Are you obsessed with money?" Long Yuan didn't even know what she was holding. Did she think he was a sucker to spend a tael of silver to buy it?

"You can try it first," Su Muyao said haughtily, handing over a bottle of soda.

I can't even handle a little kid like you. The wool comes from the sheep's back. With such a big sheep right in front of me, why not take advantage of it?

"Open it like this," he said, opening it for him and then shoving it into Longyuan's hand.

The little boy in front of her hesitated for a moment, then his eyes widened instantly as he put the food in his mouth.

This was something he had never drunk before, and he felt the water explode the moment it entered his mouth.

He took a purse off his person and threw it to Su Muyao.

"Here, have it all. Now I can eat whatever I want, right?"

"Of course!" he joked. "This is a bag of gold from our sugar daddy, worth at least several dozen taels. We're going to make a fortune!"

This pile of snacks includes spicy strips, potato chips, chocolate, jelly, and some other small snacks.

After eating one, I wanted another; these were all snacks I had never tried before.

Long Yuan was very curious about the origin of these things. "Can you tell me about your master?"

“My master came from a very far place. There, grain, chickens, ducks, fish, and fruit are as plentiful as grass in the mountains behind us. No one ever goes hungry.”

Longyuan...

"Where is this place? Why have I never heard of it before?"

"On the other side of the sky."

Long Yuan suddenly burst out laughing: "Is your master just teasing you?"

"You're such a frog in a well. Do you think it's normal for people to starve to death?"

"Isn't that so? As long as there is a natural disaster and no harvest, even if the imperial court provides disaster relief, there will be places that it cannot reach."

Su Muyao snorted coldly: "It's just that the people in power are incompetent, always using this kind of excuse."

Longyuan...

court death!

Long Yuan's face darkened for a long while before he finally asked, "Is this how you view the current emperor?"
