Chapter 82 Xiao Yujing
"What is this?"
Seeing the gift that Uncle Zhao had thoughtfully prepared, Li Hao opened the gift box and took a look. It turned out to be an exquisite and compact dragon horn comb. In addition, there was a small bottle inside.
Li Hao picked up the small porcelain bottle and shook it. Uncle Zhao quickly said: "This contains the God-casting Pill, which can increase the power of the soul. I heard that Miss Wushuang has already reached the Fugue Realm, so she must be of use."
"Uncle Zhao is still considerate and considerate."
Li Hao couldn't help but praise.
He understood that the God-casting Pill could be taken in the realm of divine movement. Each pill could increase the distance of the divine movement by about one hundred meters. Taking ten pills per person would basically reach the upper limit, and no more could be absorbed.
If ten are accumulated, it will be one kilometer.
This is better than four or five years of hard work.
The only shortcoming is that the soul trained with the help of the elixir is slightly different from the soul trained by oneself. In ordinary battles, it is nothing and difficult to detect, but in the competition between top masters, it will be a flaw.
This is what Jianghu warriors often say, if you rely on elixirs to improve, your foundation will be unstable and your body will be frivolous.
Li Hao was unable to absorb the elixirs, and taking them was ineffective. However, even if he could eat them, he would not choose to eat them. After all, I heard that Er Ye and Feng Ye never relied on elixirs. At most, they only ate some energy-rich spiritual food treasures. Medicine, strengthen some muscles, bones, qi and blood.
Because Er Ye, Feng Lao and the others are not body refiners, and they don’t know how to put effort into body refinement.
Therefore, it is okay to rely on external objects to increase the physical strength. It only has benefits. However, in terms of one's own cultivation level, it is spotless and not a trace of medicine is mixed with it.
Uncle Zhao smiled slightly, and he knew that Li Hao did not take this matter to heart, and asked Yin Yin:
"Many years from now, if the young master still adapts to Miss Wushuang's temperament, he can spend more time with your cousin and get closer to her. After all, she is a student of Qianji Sect, so she will be well taken care of in the future."
"Easy to say."
Li Hao agreed with a smile.
Uncle Zhao sighed secretly and followed Li Hao like an old servant.
Not long after, Li Yuanzhao rushed to Shanhe Courtyard, calling Li Hao's name from afar as if he were entering his own courtyard.
"It's Master Yuan Zhao." Uncle Zhao looked over with a kind smile on his face.
In recent years, Li Hao has a laid-back temperament and has not shown any martial arts talent, so the other colleges have not had much contact with Shanhe College.
Including Li Yun's brother and sister's alienation from Li Hao, he also saw it right before his eyes.
There are only a few direct descendants of the same age as Li Hao, and now only Master Yuan Zhao is left, who will come to Shanhe Courtyard to accompany Master Li Hao.
It's no wonder that others are snobbish. As the steward of Shanhe Courtyard, Uncle Zhao has good news in all directions. He also has his acquaintances and confidants in other courtyards. He knows that the reason may not just be Li Hao.
It was because other colleges heard some rumors from the Yanbei battlefield that they acted like this.
After more than ten years of protracted war, many rumors have been spread.
You must know that although the Li family is the residence of a divine general and is rich and powerful, it is not without political enemies and other jealous people in the court.
In addition, Yanbei fought every year, and the Li family's soldiers had lost their lives. Naturally, they had nowhere to complain before the war was over.
However, it was a waste of people and money, but it required funding from the court and logistical reinforcements. These were all things that people had to talk about.
Don't think that if the soldiers are outside, no one in the court will dare to discuss it. On the contrary, you still have to look at the environment and people's hearts.
"Brother Hao, all the dishes you asked me to buy have been bought and delivered to the aunt's courtyard." Li Yuanzhao rushed over with a smile.
Uncle Zhao was surprised when he heard this and glanced at Li Hao. He didn't expect that he was already prepared, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a bit of relief.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Li Hao patted Yuan Zhao on the shoulder and said, "Then let's go there too."
"Um."
Uncle Zhao also followed the two young masters, and took Li Hao's personal maid Qingzhi with him to the banquet.
The carriage swayed out of Shanhe Courtyard, and Li Yuanzhao said he wanted to go to Linglong Courtyard first. This was the residence of Siniang, who was Li Yuanzhao's adoptive mother.
Li Hao naturally did not refuse and asked the Fuzhong guard who was driving to turn around and go to Linglong Courtyard.
When they arrived at Linglong Courtyard, Li Yuanzhao jumped out of the carriage, asked Li Hao and Uncle Zhao to wait, and then rushed into the courtyard.
Not long after, Li Hao saw Li Yuanzhao slowly walking out with a graceful and dignified lady.
The fourth mother is from the Xiao family, her name is Xiao Yujing, her ancestors have also produced extremely strong men in the Four Realms, and her husband is Silang of the Li family. I heard that it was the wedding night, but she was called up outside the Great Wall. During the night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, she was He can only abandon his bride and rush to the outside world.
Who would have expected that after leaving, he would never return.
From then on, this fourth mother could only live as a widow with no children.
Therefore, both of Li Yuanzhao's parents died, so under the old lady's initiative, Li Yuanzhao was adopted into the fourth room.
Seeing Li Hao and Uncle Zhao waiting in the carriage with the curtain raised, Xiao Yujing's frown deepened.
When Li Hao was a child, Li Hao remembered that Siniang hugged him and seemed kind and amiable.
But over the years, he has become increasingly lonely.
And every time he saw himself, he seemed a little angry, and Li Hao didn't know where he had offended her.
"Didn't I tell you today that your cousin Shuang'er is coming back and asked you to prepare gifts, and you are fooling around with him again, right?"
Xiao Yujing didn't even notice that Li Hao was right next to her, and turned around to scold Li Yuanzhao in person. Li Yuanzhao scratched his head and said naively: "Mom, Brother Hao and I went to prepare gifts and have already sent them to auntie's courtyard."
"What gifts have you prepared?" Xiao Yujing frowned.
"Crispy roast goose from Hongxianglou..." Li Yuanzhao said immediately.
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yujing couldn't listen anymore and said angrily:
"You are really stupid. You have been wandering outside for a long time, and you are still among the Qiankun List. You have never tasted any delicacies. What is missing from you? You only have a few silver coins. Doesn't it look shabby to give it to you? "
Li Yuanzhao glanced at Li Hao and became a little more confident. He said, "Mom, what does our Li family have? Weapons and exercises. My cousin can just pick them out. Do you still need us to prepare them? My cousin hasn't done much in recent years." I’ve definitely never tasted our authentic food when I’ve been back to Qingzhou.”
"I've never eaten it before, but do you think it's rare for others to eat it?"
Xiao Yujing rolled her eyes slightly, with a charming charm, and said angrily: "It's one thing whether people need it or not. You must not be shabby when you give something to me. It's not their business. At least you can say it out loud. Well, if people know about it, why don’t you give me some food and drink to make them laugh out loud?”
Having said this, she looked towards the carriage and immediately caught a glimpse of the gift box on the side of the curtain. She sneered: "Look, what is this?"
Seeing her misunderstanding, Uncle Zhao quickly said: "Mrs. Xiao, this is what I specially prepared for Master Hao'er because I was worried that he would be rude, and asked him to give it to Miss Shuang'er."
"snort."
Xiao Yujing turned to Li Yuanzhao and said, "Did you see that if you treat someone like Brother Hao, they may not treat you sincerely? It makes you stupid and wanders around, but you secretly prepare generous gifts."
"Now, you are empty-handed and have nothing. What can you bring to see your cousin?"
Li Yuanzhao opened his mouth slightly and said aggrievedly: "But this is what Uncle Zhao prepared for Brother Hao. I don't blame Brother Hao..."
"you!"
Xiao Yujing was so angry that she almost raised her hand to beat him. Was this guy fed some kind of ecstasy drug by Li Hao, and he just refused to listen?
She held back and snorted angrily. After all, she was still concerned that Li Hao and Uncle Zhao were nearby, so she held back her anger:
"Forget it, my mother has prepared a gift for you, Zhuxiang, bring it to Yuan Zhao." Xiao Yujing said.
A maid walked up from behind and respectfully handed Li Yuanzhao a gift box.
Li Yuanzhao was curious and wanted to open it to take a look, but Xiao Yujing glared at him, so he stopped angrily and followed his mother with his head hanging down.
"We have our own carriage, so we won't get together." Xiao Yujing said calmly to Li Hao and Uncle Zhao.
"mother……"
"Shut up."
Li Hao was a little helpless. Siniang always seemed to have an inexplicable hostility towards him, which made him a little confused.
"Yuan Zhao, let's go first, you and your mother." Li Hao didn't let the little fat man get in the middle and winked at him.
Li Yuanzhao nodded immediately: "Brother Hao, we'll be here right away."
At the same time, he turned sideways and secretly smiled at Li Hao behind his mother's back, showing two white teeth.
Li Hao smiled and left with Uncle Zhao first.
"Mom, why don't you always let me be with Brother Hao? Brother Hao actually..."
"Shut up."
Xiao Yujing glared at him angrily: "I asked you to have more contact with Piaoxueyuan. Why are you always with him? He could only do physical training before, but now his meridians are open, but he started practicing too late, so forget it. , I’m not a snobbish person, I just don’t want you to get angry, you know?”
"ah?"
Li Yuanzhao was confused, why did he get so angry?
"That doesn't make sense to you. Just listen to your mother and get closer to that little girl Zhining." Xiao Yujing said in a low voice.
Li Yuanzhao was confused. He had asked several times before, but his mother didn't say anything. He didn't ask this time either. He just pretended to be obedient and hummed.
…
…
"When Mrs. Xiao got married, the fourth master died on the battlefield. Mrs. Xiao has been somewhat prejudiced against the Li family in recent years."
In the carriage, Uncle Zhao whispered to Li Hao, speaking carefully.
This was the master's business, and servants like them could not discuss it, but he was worried that Li Hao would have a grudge against Xiao Yujing, and he was too young to know how to hide it, which would lead to trouble.
Li Hao nodded slightly. He also thought of this reason. After all, he could understand the widow's resentment.
He was not angry at Siniang. After all, the look she gave him was always shown to his face and she never did anything secretly behind her back.
On the contrary, the second lady in Shuihuayuan always smiled kindly and greeted him every time she saw him, which made him feel at ease.
And with Li Yuanzhao here, for his sake, Li Hao would not have any hostility towards Xiao. At least, she treated Li Yuanzhao really well.
Not long after, the carriage arrived outside Changchun Hospital.
There were several carriages parked outside the alley here. Apparently the ladies from other courtyards had arrived first.
Before entering the hospital, I heard lively voices coming from the outer courtyard, vaguely saying things like "My twins are so awesome". It must have been that several ladies were surrounding the proud daughter of heaven and praising her vigorously.
Li Hao held the gift box given by Uncle Zhao and walked slowly into the courtyard.
