Chapter 9: Joy and Sorrow

Just when Yuan Congcong was looking forward to the future with hope, an unbelievable word came.

"Go over there and change into miscellaneous clothes, and then do laundry, boil water, cook and sweep the floor, all your tasks."

It was the housekeeper here who spoke, and everyone called her Sister Bai.

"I want to see Uncle Pei!"

Yuan Congcong said angrily.

"To practice under the master's door, you must abide by the rules here, and the newcomer will hone his mind for five years of miscellaneous labor."

Speaking of this, she thought of what Pei Yong said during the dinner last night.

So, Yuan Congcong reluctantly changed into miscellaneous clothes.

However, it didn't take long for her to realize that it all seemed to be aimed at herself.

I can't finish the work every day, even if I am sick, I still can't rest.

Are they going to put me to death?

Yuan Congcong thought in his heart, but quickly ruled out this idea, and many people here could easily take his own life.

She couldn't figure out why that was the case.

Finally, on this day, she threw away all the washed clothes and asked Sister Bai loudly, "Why did you do this to me?" ”

Sister Bai said impatiently.

"I don't know if I told you that newcomers hone their hearts?"

Yuan Congcong said with a glare.

"You are obviously torturing me, and I won't study anymore."

"The day you finish your studies is when you leave, it's still early, but seeing that you are clumsy, I'm afraid you'll have to stay here for the rest of your life."

Yuan Congcong glanced at her contemptuously and said.

"My father is an old friend of Wu Yangjun and Uncle Pei."

"Hahaha~"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately caused a smile around them.

"Your father is so powerful, why didn't he teach you himself?"

Sister Bai asked rhetorically.

"You listen to me, I don't know what the relationship between your father and the master is, but the master has told me to take good care of you."

She continued.

"I don't believe it."

"If you can't wash your clothes, you won't be allowed to eat or sleep!"

Sister Bai dropped this sentence and turned her head and left.

Yuan Congcong had tears in her eyes, picked up the clothes one by one and threw them together, she didn't wash them but sat on the side and looked at the sky.

At this moment, she misses Wang Ran and the sixth child very much.

"By the way, the sixth is so powerful, find a way to ask it to take us away."

Yuan Congcong thought to himself.

On this day, Wang Ran finished copying the scriptures and prepared to go back to rest.

But when he passed by, he found a drunk man in the distance, and his back was very familiar.

When he walked in, it turned out to be Pei Yong, he looked up at the night sky with tears in his eyes, and from time to time raised the wine jar in his arms and poured it violently.

It seems that he is too forgetful, so that Wang Ran approached him without noticing.

"Master?"

Wang Ran called in a low voice.

The wine jar that Pei Yong had just raised paused slightly, and then poured it again.

Then he took out a jar of wine and threw it out, and was caught by Wang Ran.

"Drink with me."

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Ran asked in a low voice.

Pei Yong waved his hand, and after pouring a few sips of wine, he said drunkenly and dazedly.

"Drink."

"Master, if you have any difficulties, you can tell your disciple, maybe I can help you."

Wang Ran roughly knew in his heart at this time that most of it was the matter of the restaurant that day.

If he knew that Cong Cong was in distress and couldn't save her in time, I am afraid that he would not be much better than him.

At this time, Pei Yong was already drunk, and he just muttered a name.

"Xue Qing, Xue Qing..."

After a while, Pei Tai heard the news.

He smiled embarrassedly when he saw this.

"Let the junior brother see the smile and don't hide it from you, my mother is far away in the northern region, and it is said that when I cultivate, I will go mad and die, and it is impossible to rush to my father's cultivation in a short time, so I can only wait for the bad news of my mother."

As he spoke, tears rained down.

Wang Ran pondered for a moment, as if he had made a decision.

"I have a way."

"What?" Pei Tai couldn't believe his ears.

Wang Ran threw him an affirmative look and continued.

"I have a mount, and I can travel 100,000 miles a day."

The next day, Pei Yong and Pei Tai looked at the sixth child like a little piglet, and then looked at Wang Ran who was bamboo-chested.

"Brother Wang, this is your so-called mount that travels 100,000 miles a day?"

Pei Tai couldn't help but ask.

"Sixth, show them."

I saw that after a roar, the sixth child became the size of a cow and a horse.

"It's... This is... Divine beast unicorn! ”

Pei Yong couldn't help but say excitedly.

Wang Ran nodded.

Then, he touched the head of the sixth child and said.

"Sixth, it's up to you whether the senior lady can be safe or not."

The sixth did not show an attitude.

looked at Pei Yong from beginning to end.

Pei Tai wanted to touch it, but was frightened away by the white gas spewing from its nostrils.

"It's so temperamental, I'm afraid I can't control it."

Seeing this, Pei Yong said.

"Sixth, is it good to be obedient."

The sixth man rolled his eyes, and seemed to have some idea.

It began to become docile and courted Pei Yong and Pei Tai.

Pei Yong was very happy to see this.

So, he pulled down his old face and saluted Wang Ran.

Then he said with a worried face: "I don't know how Xue Qing is now." ”

When Wang Ran heard this, he hurriedly said, "Master, you better go and save your master." ”

After a while, a man and a beast flew away, causing a commotion in Shangyu City.

At noon, Yuan Congcong was very weak and washing his clothes, and the night's sleepless and uneaten water and rice made her tired.

She tried all kinds of methods last night, but she didn't get in touch with the outside world, and even Sister Bai didn't stop her when she looked at her.

At this time, Yuan Congcong's tears had dried up, thinking of the beautiful memories in his heart, and his arms were mechanically lifted and released.

Finally, the thin body went limp, and he passed out.

It was as if she had had a long dream, and in the dream there was a staircase that stretched out into the darkness.

She could hear Wang Ran's laughter and the howl of the sixth child, but she couldn't see each other.

She was terrified in the darkness, the endless steps, the light that she could not see.

I don't know how long she walked, she was tired, hungry and thirsty, and she wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound.

Suddenly, something grabbed her in the darkness, and she woke up with a scream.

"Miss, you're lazy, and you've slept for a day and a night."

Sister Bai said in a weird way.

"I'm so obedient, can you not torture me."

Yuan Congcong's tears fell big drops, and she looked at Sister Bai with helpless and desperate eyes.

In response to her, a bowl of green vegetable porridge and a word.

"Hurry up and eat, there's a lot of unwashed clothes in the backyard."

She couldn't hold back her crying anymore, and drank the tears and porridge with a dead heart.

While drinking, she wondered if Wang Ran had also been wronged, and whether he would be beaten as a man, so the more she thought about it, the more sad she became.

And Wang Ran's side, since he lent his mount, his status in Pei's Mansion can be said to be unmanageable, except for the female dependents' cultivation area, where he wants to go.

In the entire Shangyu City, he could buy whatever he wanted, and no one even cared about his daily cultivation and copying scriptures.

Wang Ran couldn't help but sigh, this is the treatment that only the protagonist has.

This made the people in Pei Mansion laugh in their eyes, especially Pei Tai would praise him every time he saw him, but behind it was a sneer and contempt.
