Chapter 1 The seriously ill young master

A smoky light rain fell on a slightly quaint street. Rows of brick attics rise on both sides of the street, adding a touch of history to this wide street.

Or because of the light rain that covered the whole street, and there were only a few people scattered on the wide street. Most of these people are guys who are running for life, walking. Ragged, coarse linen.

Contrary to the surrounding scene, there is a young man in fine clothes who is walking slowly, and when viewed from the side or back of this young man, he is completely a handsome boy. If the camera slowly turns to the boy's face, the stupidity revealed by the empty eyes completely destroys the boy's overall temperament.

"Look, the stupid son of the Snow family is out again!" said the middle-aged woman who was hiding under the eaves to avoid the rain, laughed, as if she had discovered some gossip topic, and began to introduce the details of the young man in fancy clothes to the people around her.

On the side, there were outsiders who had come to the city to do business, and they didn't know the situation, so they asked the middle-aged woman about it.

As soon as the woman saw that her topic had attracted more and more attention, as if she had accomplished something terrible, the more she talked, the more energetic she became.

"This stupid boy belongs to Snow...... Yes, yes, yes, it's the richest man in the city, who does the textile and cloth business, and I heard that there are several mines and casinos, and the money is a mess."

"Is this fool the son of old Snow, or is he an only son! Old Snow, although he is rich and has married several aunts, he still hasn't even seen a shadow of a baby when he is nearly forty. ”

After that, the woman covered her mouth and laughed a few times, and then continued.

"Tut-tut, other people's property...... If you give it to me, I will spend it for a lifetime, no, I won't be able to spend it in ten lifetimes, you say that you are not angry, and it is better to live than a fool!"

"Hahaha......" The crowd laughed again.

The woman cleared her throat and continued

"Finally, when I was forty-two, I had this baby, maybe I was old, and I didn't have a lot of energy, and I gave birth to a fool. This fool ......."

The woman's mouth began to mumble and her voice became quieter, and the crowd could not hear what she was saying. Voices of discontent began to shout.

"Sister-in-law of the Nick family, why didn't you say it, and then?"

The woman's face changed when she heard the dissatisfaction of the passer-by, and she looked at the man nervously. Only then did everyone see that two young men dressed in domestic servant clothes appeared next to the young man in Chinese costumes. Locals know that it was the domestic servant costume of the Snow family......

The passers-by who had been sheltering from the rain under the eaves began to leave as if nothing had happened, and even the woman left in a hurry, and no one cared about the light rain in the sky.

The two young men standing next to the young man in Chinese clothes stared at the backs of everyone leaving with some resentment, as if they were unwilling, but looking at the young master who was only thirteen years old and was already about the same height as himself, that trace of unwillingness turned into a trace of helplessness. The two glanced at each other, and one walked up to the young man in Chinese clothes, bent down and said respectfully.

"Young master, why did you sneak out again, your subordinates will carry you back"

After speaking, the man sighed, after all, it was a very humiliating thing to have such a young master. The young man didn't care if the boy agreed to carry him directly, and the other person opened the umbrella and stood directly above the boy to protect him from the rain, but most of his body was exposed to the rain curtain, and he didn't care.

This scene was all seen by the young man, but the young man still looked sluggish and smirked. The figures of the three of them also disappeared into the haze of smoke and rain......

Snow Mansion......

An attic in the middle of the mansion, where most of the people in the mansion gathered, walking back and forth in a panic. Those who fetch water, serve medicine, and change towels......

A plump middle-aged man sat slumped on the Taishi's chair, his expression a little lonely. Several beautiful young women beside him were sobbing quietly.

This fat middle-aged man is the current patriarch of the Snow family, and a stomp of Rylock Snow can cause an eight-magnitude earthquake in Mangala City, one of the top three cities in the principality.

Only one woman, who was the most luxuriously dressed among all the beautiful women, was already on her knees and weeping bitterly, her whole face already pressed to the ground, which made people worry about whether she would faint suddenly.

An old man in sackcloth slowly walked out of the room with a tired face, and when he saw the fat middle-aged man slumped in a chair, his eyes flashed with a hint of disdain. After pondering for a moment, he still said flatly: "This situation is really rare for your son, and the old man has never seen his body burned like this for more than 50 years, and there have been no other adverse reactions."

At this time, the old Lei Luo was trembling and stood up from the Taishi's chair, staring at the old man in Mai, with tears in his eyes.

He knew that the old man in front of him was the most famous divine doctor in the entire city of Mangala, and he also had an ancestral secret technique, and he had paid a great price to invite the latter to come.

The old man's name was Oliver Nandey, and he was a weirdo. In the face of the poor, he could cure the sick for nothing, and the only price was that the man had to cook medicine for him for a day, and he would pay for a day's wages. But in the face of the rich, this consultation fee is not a small amount. A well-to-do businessman once said, "If I want to see Master Oliver, I may have to take my family to the vegetable market tomorrow to ask for food."

This is a joke, but it also shows that Oliver's diagnosis is expensive.

Oliver looked at Reynolds quietly, he could feel that Reynolds had regarded him as the last straw after drowning, and sighed in his heart: "Pity the hearts of parents in the world"

But he thought of Reynold's son's strange state, and closed his eyes to wonder if there was a record of the corresponding symptoms in the books in the house.

Reynold's ladies did not dare to cry out loud for fear of interrupting Oliver's thoughts. Reynolds clenched his hands into fists, sweat covering his fat round face, and the fine clothes behind him were already soaked with sweat.

After a long time, Oliver opened his eyes and looked up at the people who regarded him as his savior, and couldn't help but sigh.

The lavishly dressed woman fainted instantly, and Reynolds sat directly on the floor, his eyes hollow. This is his only son, and he still belongs to the old man. Although he is a fool, his son has a lot of money, and he once imagined that his son would give him many, many grandchildren, and when he was old, he would be able to enjoy the blessings of having children and grandchildren. For the sake of his grandson, he has no problem working for more than ten years. But now... Now it has become completely empty talk, what is he fighting for so much family property for!

Oliver quietly watched everything that was happening in front of him, as a doctor he had seen too much, slowly walked to the luxury lady, squatted down, took out a silver needle from his sleeve, pierced the back of the woman's hand, turned it slightly, and the woman slowly woke up. When I woke up, I saw that my son was still lying motionless on the bed in the back room, and I couldn't help crying. There are few sisters around who don't cry. When they are old, who will take care of them.

Reynolds slowly came to his senses, and instead of comforting several ladies, he sent Oliver out of the door very politely, and promised to donate a large sum of money to Oliver, hoping to add cotton clothes and food to the poor families hundreds of miles around, and to survive the coming harsh winter, it should be regarded as a blessing for his son.

At night, the bright moon is shining, and it is a busy time for this Snow family mansion, which covers an area of several hundred acres, and hundreds of servants go back and forth in and out of the gate, because everyone is arranging the funeral for the little young master in Snow's family who is about to die. I am also worried about the future of this family, which has been loyal for years and even decades.
