The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 56: Saving People (Seeking monthly ticket)

As everyone was thinking about it, Li Jingxi's voice suddenly came from the bedroom, "Daddy is awake, Daddy is awake."

The three eunuchs hurriedly followed Li Jingxiao's footsteps and entered the bedroom. They saw Li Huaili, who had been unconscious before, now opened his eyes and looked at them.

But when he saw Li Jingxiao in a bright red bullfighting suit, Li Huaili opened his mouth and murmured, "Brother, are you still alive?"

Li Jingxiao was stunned for a moment, then he understood.

It seems that I look very similar to that cheap, dead dad.

Fortunately, Li Huaili himself reacted and realized that the young man in front of him was not Li Huaiyi, the eldest brother of the first wife.

But it was the child who was sent to Zhenwu Temple by him that year.

A look of shame suddenly appeared on his face.

When I think about the fact that I have been childless for many years and only have three daughters, I can't help but feel a little regretful.

If he had argued with his biological father back then, perhaps the child in front of him would have been adopted by him long ago.

After looking at Li Jingxiao for a while, he sighed and said, "Looks like him, really looks like him. When my elder brother went to the army to fight, I went to see him off.

More than ten years have passed in a flash, but it seems like just yesterday."

After saying that, he looked at Li Jingxiao and said, "Back then, you were just a little kid over one year old, and the woman who brought you to the capital didn't have any tokens to prove her or your identities.

Your grandfather passed away only half a year ago, leaving behind a lot of money and a two-story house.

Also, although your father died of illness in Siam, the imperial court still provided him with a pension and gave him a hereditary position as the commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Because of this matter, my relatives from my hometown in Jiangzhou often came to bother my father.

In this situation, my father and I were afraid that the woman was a liar, so how could we dare to recognize you?
As for the hereditary position of Jinyiwei General Flag, my father never handed it over to his nephews in Jiangzhou until his death, let alone let me take the position."

Hearing this, not only Li Jingxiao breathed a sigh of relief, but even the three eunuchs, the second aunt, and Jingxi all breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that he and his great-uncle didn't acknowledge him because they were worried that scammers would come to their house to defraud their money and the hereditary position of General Flag of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Of course, Li Jingxiao only believed half of this.

Everyone has selfish desires. Li Jingxiao didn't believe that his uncle and great-uncle had never been tempted by the inheritance and official position.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

My cheap cousin cannot die before I get married.

Li Jingxiao sighed, took out a Nine Flower Jade Dew Pill, handed it to Jingxi and said, "This is a top-notch healing medicine, mix it with water and give it to your father.

It should relieve his thirst."

Li Jingxi still has a high level of trust in his cousin at this time.

If you want to harm your father, you don't have to do anything.

Now that Daddy has woken up after the exorcism, there is really no need to harm others at this time.

Seeing this, Dai Quan and Eunuch Zhou on the side couldn't help but follow the Nine Flowers Jade Dew Pill with their eyes.

Xia Shouzhong was secretly happy in his heart, thinking that not only did our family get this magic medicine before yours, but we also got four pills at once.

Plus 3 Sanhua Yulu pills and 1 Liuhua Yulu pill.

When Jingxi was feeding the medicine to his second uncle, Li Jingxiao simply took out two small porcelain bottles and handed them to Dai Quan and eunuch Zhou.

The two eunuchs were overjoyed, but when they saw that Li Jingxiao had no intention of giving Xia Shouzhong a bottle, they could not help but guess that Xia Shouzhong had already received it.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart.

When he saw Li Huaifu taking the pill, his face turned red in just a few dozen breaths.

Even the ulcerated toes began to heal. The two eunuchs knew very well that this thing was a miracle drug.

The slight dissatisfaction he felt towards Li Jingxiao for giving the medicine to Xia Shouzhong first instead of to himself disappeared without a trace in an instant.

After more than ten seconds, Li Huaili suddenly coughed violently and spat out several clumps of black blood.

It seems that the injuries to his internal organs have recovered a lot and his breathing has become smoother.

Dai Quan hurriedly asked an imperial physician who was waiting outside to come in, which made Li Jingxiao roll his eyes. Unfortunately, Dai Quan and the other two had no time to pay attention to his expression at that moment.

After a while, the imperial physician said excitedly, "Although there are still signs of diabetes in the pulse, the master's health has at least recovered to the state it was three or four years ago."

Second Aunt, Li Jingxi and her two sisters were ecstatic.

Does this mean that my husband and father can live for at least another three or four years?
This is much better than what Li Jingxiao said before, that after the curse is removed, he can live for a year or two.

Li Jingxi was so excited that his face was full of tears. He pulled his two sisters and knelt on the ground in front of Li Jingxiao.

"Thank you, big brother, for being so magnanimous and saving the father of my two younger sisters."

Li Jingxiao felt at ease with this kneeling.

I was about to reach out to help her, but then I thought that 11-year-old Jingxi would be a grown-up girl in a few years in this era.

Even if he is your cousin, it is not good to get too close to him.

Otherwise, if it gets out, it will bring bad reputation.

With a wave of his sleeves, he used his inner strength to lift the three little girls to their feet.

The three of them were suddenly filled with surprise.

Li Jingrong, who was only three years old, looked at Li Jingxiao with a silly and cute face.

Li Jingxiao was amused by the little girl and laughed out loud.

"Okay, you three sisters, just focus on taking care of your second uncle. As for the Xing'an Marquis's Mansion, your eldest brother won't be living there anymore.

However, this title was personally decreed by the Saint and His Majesty for my eldest brother to inherit."

Having said that, Li Jingxiao sighed and looked at his second uncle who was staring at him.

After thinking for a moment, he bowed and said, "When I have time, I will come to see my second uncle."

After saying that, he shook his head, turned and walked out of the bedroom.

Then I heard my second uncle's voice calling from the bedroom, "Jingyou, Jingyou."

Li Jingxiao paused, but since he was not his previous incarnation, he had no emotions to speak of, so there was naturally no reason for him to linger.

Dai Quan and the other two looked at each other. It seemed that Li Jingxiao did not intend to have too many disputes with his second uncle's family.

But think about it, although Li Huaili was not so bad as to be festering, he still left Li Jingxiao, who was only a little over one year old, in Zhenwu Temple and ignored him.

If it were me, it would be considered open-minded to be able to let go of all grudges, and it would be normal for me to be unwilling to pay attention to this second uncle.

But if someone really bullied this family, they probably wouldn't sit idly by.

People of this generation actually have a very strong sense of family.

Even in modern Chinese society, the older generation's ideas about sibling relationships and family are completely different from those of the younger generation.

In ancient society, food was difficult to obtain and people had to resist wild beasts, so they had no choice but to stick together.

In the agricultural society, most people were restricted to the land, transportation was extremely underdeveloped, and they could not go out to work and earn money, so clan concepts gradually formed.

The difficulty in modern society is how to live a better life.

As long as you have enough food and clothes, you won't starve to death even if you move bricks or pick up trash.

This makes the necessity for clan members to stick together much weaker, and the relationships between them will naturally become less close.

Exit the backyard and go all the way to the front yard.

Li Jingxiao sat on a throne, looking at the hundreds of servants in the Xing'an Earl's Mansion who were guarded by the Embroidered Uniform Guards.

I couldn't help but sigh inwardly that an earl's mansion actually needs so many people to serve it. Just think about how much the annual expenses are.

However, if you think about it carefully, the powerful and wealthy in modern society are still the same.
