At the end of the family competition, Xiao Yi regained the first place, although the second uncle Wang Tianyu had a black face throughout the whole process, he could not change the facts. Wang Dihu was second, and Feng'er defeated Wang Dijun to finish third.

Wang Dijun fled into his room ashamed and ashamed, and a few little guys with good grades happily looked at the reward in their hands and touched it around, as for the high-grade spar that everyone coveted, it naturally belonged to Xiao Yi. Grandpa also rewarded many additional treasures, and announced in public that Xiao Yi would enjoy the top treatment of the third generation of the family in the future, and everyone was eyed by it for a while.

Early in the morning, Xiao Yi walked out of his hut as usual, walked through the hall, and walked outside the Wang family's mansion. But this morning was destined to be different.

The servants lowered their heads and dodged, their eyes full of fear, and they no longer had the arrogance they used to have. Some of the servants who bullied Xiao Yi in the past even prepared gifts and came to apologize after the big competition yesterday, hoping that Xiao Yi could open up the net, but Xiao Yi neither refused nor accepted this.

And the Wang family no longer had contempt for Xiao Yi's eyes, and the elders would greet Xiao Yi with a smile from afar. Even the second uncle Wang Tianyu, although his face had been black because of Wang Dihu's defeat, he saw Xiao Yi also bowed slightly, and he no longer chose to ignore it like before. The old man was even more happy to see Xiao Yi.

The third-generation children of the Wang family, yesterday generally had a feeling that their faces were swollen, and Xiao Yi's expression was very complicated. Seeing Xiao Yi, he no longer had the swagger he used to have, he all lowered his head and respectfully called out "Brother Xiao Yi".

In this regard, Xiao Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Strength, only strength can find human dignity." I want to get stronger. ”

For his own brother, Xiao Yi didn't seem so stingy, nodded and passed like this. After all, in Xiao Yi's heart, these clan brothers are his relatives, unlike those servants, after all, they are young and ignorant, they can be forgiven, and they are the boss, so why bother with them.

"Brother Xiao Yi went out to practice again, no wonder he is so powerful, he doesn't take a break on the first day of the Lunar New Year. ”

"Even if you go out to cultivate on Chinese New Year's Eve, you can't compare to Brother Xiao Yi, haven't you heard what Grandpa said, Brother Xiao Yi is a peerless genius, rare to see in a thousand years." ”

"Shhh, be quiet, aren't you afraid of the family law? Grandpa said that everything yesterday must not be passed on, otherwise it will ......" Several children of the Wang family were talking in a whisper, and one of them happened to show a look that you understand.

Xiao Yi, who was walking in front, couldn't help but laugh secretly when he heard it. Out of the Wang family's mansion, he walked straight to the back mountain.

Although the heavy snow has stopped, the entire back mountain is a world of ice and snow. The animals seem to have gone for the winter, and the back mountain is quiet, and occasionally one or two hares will run out to play, leaving a row of small footprints on the snow, and quickly burrow into the hole when they see the living people coming.

Xiao Yi walked into the quiet valley and came to the resting place of his grandmother. Take out paper money, incense candles, fruits and other offerings from the ring and place them in front of grandma's tomb, light incense candles and paper money, kneel on both knees, and say sadly and proudly: "Grandma, Xiao Yi has come to see you." Do you see, I'm stronger now, and I'll be stronger in the future. I swear, I must get back the Flying Dragon Jade Pendant, and let the Zhang family repay a hundred times what they did before. ”

For the flying dragon jade pendant, Xiao Yi talked to his grandfather alone, and he didn't want to use the power of the family. If you lose something, you have to get it back with your own hands. Grandpa was also more supportive of his idea, so he didn't mention it again.

The wind blew quietly, but Xiao Yi didn't feel the cold at all. On the contrary, I was very intoxicated, the wind was like a kind touch of grandma, and the kind smile of grandma in my memory appeared in front of me again......

An hour later, a thin young man by the lake began to practice boxing with his bare body, and the frozen lake water was splashed with ice from time to time.

At noon, Feng'er came to the lake as promised, and the boss began to shout from afar: "Brother Xiao Yi, Brother Xiao Yi." ”

Make an appointment to take Feng'er to the business house for a visit, after all, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it is appropriate to accompany Feng'er to buy her some gifts. I used to be shy in my pocket, but now I have a little money, and the family is rewarded with a lot of good things compared to the first grandfather, so it's no problem to buy some little girl's things.

Xiao Yi saw Feng'er flying to him like a butterfly with light steps, smiled slightly, and quickly closed his fist and turned around. After packing up her clothes and turning around, Feng'er took a sweat towel and gently wiped it on Xiao Yi's forehead, and said distressedly: "Brother Xiao Yi, you see that you are sweating profusely on the first day of the new year, and you will rest." ”

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "Okay, let's go shopping with our family Feng'er today, just say what you want, Brother Xiao Yi will give it to you." ”

The two walked hand in hand and walked to business in a comfortable mood. On the street, firecrackers are continuous, and children play to their heart's content. Feng'er was playful for a while, and she also lit a few firecrackers behind her, and suddenly the snowflakes splashed and slowly fell on her body.

Looking at Feng'er's happy smile and the flying snowflakes, Xiao Yi couldn't help but sigh: "Ordinary people also have the happiness of ordinary people, but this happiness is often too fragile." Like this snowflake, it may disappear before it has time to bloom. I must protect my loved ones and make them smile happily at all times. ”

A belief that I want to be stronger has already taken root in Xiao Yi's heart, and a few years later, when Xiao Yi took Feng'er's hand and revisited the old place, the two recalled today's events, and couldn't help but ask each other at the same time: "What were you thinking at the time?"

"I thought it would be nice if time could freeze forever in that moment. What about you, Brother Yi. Feng'er looked at Xiao Yi shyly and smiled.

"Well, I think again, I want to make my Feng'er so beautiful and happy forever. The two whispered love words, holding hands and revisiting the footprints of the past.

......

"Brother Xiao Yi, come over and play too. Feng'er waved at Xiao Yi with a firecracker.

"Okay, I'm here. Xiao Yi also temporarily let go of his heavy heart, like a child, and played with Feng'er.

Yes, he was only fifteen years old, and he was carrying too many things, so he was so depressed that he only knew how to cultivate. A heart seems to be dozens of years old.

The two of them laughed all the way into the trading house, and the six big men at the door were still motionless like logs. At this time, the crowd of people shopping in the commercial house is also endless, after all, it is the time of the festival.

Feng'er happily took Xiao Yi's hand, looking at this and that. The girl's heart is undoubtedly revealed, Xiao Yi is also full of spoiling and running blindly with Feng'er, everything that Feng'er looks at has been bought, and there are big bags and small bags in her hands for a while.

Feng'er was obviously not having enough fun, running around the trading house like an elf. The delicate face is full of smiles, the cheeks are flushed, although he is young, but he has a clear complexion and elegant bearing, which is really better than the one in the painting. Xiao Yi who watched it was stunned.

Feng'er came to a place that sold jewelry, and when she saw the shiny pearls and gemstones, she couldn't help but stretch out her hand to play with it. It's girls, and they all like these things. When the boss saw the guests coming, he greeted him warmly: "Miss, these are the latest styles made of the best materials we have chosen, and there are many jewels that are not only beautiful to wear on the body, but also can go to the sick and recuperate, and there are many miracles." ”

Feng'er smiled slightly, but did not answer.

"Miss, look at this pearl necklace, this is a necklace made by collecting thousand-year-old pearls from the bottom of the East China Sea. It not only has a calming effect, but also prolongs life. The boss handed over a necklace.

Feng'er took it carefully, it was cold in her hand, but it was also elegant, and she played with it and asked crisply, "Boss, how to sell it?"

"Miss, if you want, it's enough to give you a high-grade spar. This pearl necklace is worn on you, it is both lively and noble. The boss winked slyly and complimented with a grin. This chain is worth at most a medium-grade spare, in his opinion, this is a rich lady who doesn't know which one came from, and there is no adult around to watch, of course he will slaughter this fat sheep.

Of course, Feng'er is not stupid, she understands the boss's intentions, smiles slightly, and is about to put down the necklace.

"Miss don't, this price is negotiable, I see that you have a fate with this necklace, you can take a look." The boss saw that Feng'er was going to let go of the anxious persuasion.

"Boss, although your pearl necklace looks bright, each pearl has a different luster. If it weren't for the delicate handwork of your pearl necklace, I don't think a medium-grade spar would be worth it. Xiao Yi stepped forward and said lightly, with their identity, there are many treasures in the family, and this bit of eyesight is still there.

"This, the young master is really an insider, if you don't want to add any more, how about two medium-grade spars, after all, it's a festival, and it's not easy for us to have a small business?"

"The two medium-grade spars are similar, as long as Feng'er likes even one of the top grades, it doesn't matter, but I just don't want to be wronged. Xiao Yi was about to pay the bill and take the necklace.

"Uncle, I want it, I will give out ten medium-grade spars. An unfamiliar voice came, with a hint of contempt.

Xiao Yi and Feng'er frowned in search of prestige, and a richly dressed rich man walked slowly towards Feng'er surrounded by a group of people.

The rich and noble son is about twenty years old, and his appearance is still delicate, but he has a pair of lustful eyes, staring at Feng'er as if no one was around.

"I'll give ten medium-grade spars to buy this necklace and give it to this young lady. The rich and noble prince chose to ignore Xiao Yi next to Feng'er, and swept Feng'er from top to bottom with a pair of fiery eyes.

The owner of the jewelry store smiled when he saw Kaizi coming, and hurriedly handed over the pearl necklace.

Xiao Yi's heart was gloomy, this product was completely looking for fault, destroying their rare play mood, the more angry he was, the more calm he became. Xiao Yi walked slowly to the rich and noble son: "Why, you want to rob me, I'll see it first." ”

"What if you see it first, Uncle will take money and smash you to death. The rich man turned around and looked at Xiao Yi with disdain, because he had just come out of martial arts, and Xiao Yi was relatively simple to wear.

"It's more than money, right, I'm twenty medium-grade spars. Xiao Yi took out a bunch of spars and shook them in front of the rich man.

"I'm not short of money, I'll give fifty yuan. ”

"Eighty pieces. ”

"I'll produce two high-grade spars. The rich man stuffed the spar to the jewelry store owner, snatched the pearl necklace, and looked at Xiao Yi triumphantly.

"Okay, congratulations, this pearl necklace is yours. Xiao Yi smiled, took Feng'er's hand and walked away calmly. Leaving a rich and noble man with a confused face.

Damn, it took two high-grade spars to buy a broken necklace that is worth a medium-grade spar, what a loser this must be, only the boss is stealing fun on the side.

You can't retreat, and no one dares to trample on the rules of the world's treasure firms. The rich man hated and said to his subordinates: "Damn, dare to play Lao Tzu." Follow Lao Tzu, go out and beat Lao Tzu to death. ”
