Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

Chapter 244

This time it was Yundou's turn to roll his eyes: "You want to go? I want to go too. What's the point of just talking about it? I don't even know if I'll be selected."

"I must be selected, what should I do?" the child asked.

Kidney Bean shook his head and said:

"do not know."

"Ah..." The child was extremely disappointed.

Yundou looked around, secretly pulled her out and said: "You don't know, our prince is out of favor and has been away from home for decades.

I heard that he wasn't even allowed to go back for the funeral when his own mother died. At that time, the late emperor was still alive. Even though they weren't born of the same mother, they were still brothers. He still showed no regard for them. And what's more, the current emperor is his nephew whom he hasn't even met. How close of a relationship could they possibly be? Naturally, he was never asked to go back.

I don't know why they suddenly asked him to go back this time. This kind of thing has never happened in the mansion before, so I naturally don't know what the rules are, but everyone wants to go. I guess giving money to the manager would be useful, but it's not worth it.

Although the imperial capital is great, it is separated by thousands of mountains and rivers. We servants will inevitably suffer on the way. If we spend money just to see it, we will be so stupid.

In my opinion, we're not going to do anything. There will definitely be people who don't want to go, and then it will be our turn."

Kidney Bean looks cunning and seems very smart.

But the child didn't believe her. Everyone wanted to go to the big kitchen, so how could any other place be any better?

That’s the imperial capital.

Ordinary people would never go to such a far place in their lifetime unless something happened. Not to mention how much money it would cost along the way, if they encountered danger or took the wrong road, they might get lost or die before reaching their destination.

It is a rare opportunity to go with so many people, without having to spend any money, and with food and accommodation provided. Who would not want to go?

Anyway, the kids must go!

Lian Li never wrote back, and she had to know what happened to her master and the others!

She would go even if it cost money!

But...who should I give the money to? To Madam Chai?

The child asked Yundou for advice, but since money was a huge issue, Yundou didn't dare to say anything. "It's not impossible to give it to Madam Chai. After all, she's the head of the kitchen. She'll definitely write a list for this kind of thing. But whether it will work after we send it over is anyone's guess. In my opinion..."

Yundou rolled his eyes and said, "Instead of asking Madam Chai for help, you might as well ask An Changshi and Zhang Fengci. Their words are more effective than Madam Chai's. You know them, so maybe they can get things done without spending any money."

"Isn't that taking advantage?"

The older my child gets, the more I feel like I'm always taking advantage of others. It's okay if I don't think about it, but if I really have to ask for something that everyone wants, the feeling is different.

But this matter is really important to her.

The child scratched his head, looking very confused.

Yundou said, "So do you want to go or not?"

Hit the nail on the head.

Children naturally want to go, and they have to go.

She was restless thinking about this matter all day long.

So much so that Zhang Fengci realized something was wrong when he saw her at night: "Why do you have a horn on your head?"

The child touched the big bump on his head and said, "I didn't pay attention. I bumped into it accidentally."

First she bumped into the cabinet, then when she turned the corner she bumped into someone, and when she stepped back she tripped and fell to the ground. Yundou pulled her up, and her head hit the man's basket full of charcoal. She kept muttering that she was unlucky and walked towards the door while thinking about something, and then she happened to see someone slamming the door after a quarrel. Not only did she grow horns on her head, but her body was also covered with bruises.

It was all an unexpected disaster, especially the time when her head hit the basket. It was even more unlucky because she bumped into that person at that time.

She covered her head and stepped back, and the man covered his shoulder and stepped back, and both of them closed their eyes in pain.

He opened his eyes first and saw that there was no one in front of him, so he looked around with the charcoal on his back. When he turned around, the child on the ground was just being helped up by Yundou who had crouched down...

Zhang Fengci was stunned after hearing what she said: "My child, are you angry about something? How can a good person be so unlucky? If not, burn some paper to send it off."

The child also felt that her luck was a bit bad today. She was sad in the morning, but she heard good news in the afternoon and she had a different opinion.

"Eunuch Zhang, do you know what it means to be lucky after bad times? I think I'm going to have great luck."

Zhang Fengci: ...

"Are you crazy? You believe this nonsense. Go back and apply some medicine. Do you even know what this is?"

Zhang Fengci stretched out five fingers.

The child frowned subconsciously and said, "Keep the hand you're hitting away from me."

"Well, you're not stupid." Zhang Fengci retracted his hand and walked forward. "Come on, let's go. Are you waiting for me on purpose?"

The child followed shyly and said, "Yes, the road is slippery today. I thought I would wait for you to walk together so that you wouldn't fall."

"Are you that thoughtful?"

Zhang Fengci was asking her, but also asking himself - Am I really that good to her?

Can let her be like this.

Waiting for him specially, and returning it to you?

The child looked around and said something else: "What are you talking about? Master Zhang, do you know what I am missing from having great luck?"

Zhang Fengci's brows knitted into a frown: "I don't have any money to give you, so don't talk about anything above five taels."

He has never raised a child, but he has seen others raise children. But that ungrateful kid next door behaves just like that when asking for money or things.

But his words were much more tactful and pleasant than hers, and he would be attentive for a while before speaking, unlike this one who just said it straight away.

Zhang Fengci glared at the child when he thought of this.

The dissatisfaction is evident in words.

The child's heart was pounding, but he still said, "I don't want money. I just need someone who can help me realize my long-cherished wish. If you are that person, I will give you money."

Zhang Fengci looked her up and down just like he did the first day he met her.

The child's heart was beating fast, and Zhang Fengci felt very disappointed.

"What's your long-cherished wish? Do you want to go to heaven?"

"Why am I going to heaven? I think God is there," the child said expectantly. "Can you please speak to me and take me with you when you leave?"

"Oh, I thought..."

"Why?"

Zhang Fengci suddenly stopped talking midway, looked at her with a sidelong glance and smiled:

"Nothing, just keep those little things for yourself. Did Madam Chai say she won't take you with her?"

"That's not the case, but I'm afraid there will be too many people wanting to go and I won't be able to get a seat."

The child scratched his head embarrassedly.

Zhang Fengci rolled his eyes at her and said, "Stop overthinking. It's worth telling me about something like this. If you want to go, go ahead. Don't go with the people from the kitchen. I'll ask the people next door to take you along, and you'll even have a seat there."

The one next door refers to Chen Dianshen.

The child wondered, "Why should I go with Eunuch Chen? Aren't you going?"

"I'm not going," Zhang Fengci said very bluntly, "There are plenty of people over there who don't get along with me. Why would I go? Just invite myself to be bullied? You better hope for me. Don't tell anyone you know me when you get there, and don't blame me if anything happens."

Zhang Fengci said the ugly words in advance.

The child was startled, then changed his mind and said, "Haven't you been away from the capital for many years? How could anyone still recognize you?"

Zhang Fengci: ...
