How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 20 Did you offend the White Impermanence?
The puppy raised its hand and pinched its nose.

Just as the middle-aged handsome uncle was about to say, "Why are you pinching your nose?", the little dog Sheng started blowing his nose.

The middle-aged handsome man was instantly displeased.

The middle-aged handsome man quickly released the puppy's mouth.

As soon as he let go, the little dog Sheng started laughing. "Hahahaha...hahahaha..." You're pretending to be a kidnapper to scare me, at least change your voice!

The middle-aged handsome man, while checking his hands for snot, said, "Aren't you afraid? You dirty kid."

"Hahahaha..." She's a complete idiot now; how could an idiot understand what he's saying? Besides, this is a security escort agency; who would come to a security escort agency to steal a child? Running a security escort agency requires not only fighting skills but also knowledge of both the legitimate and criminal worlds. "Hahahaha..."

Qian Laifu was helping the stableman tidy up when he suddenly heard his granddaughter laughing like a little madwoman. Qian Laifu quickly ran over. As soon as he arrived, he saw Gou Sheng pointing at a middle-aged man and laughing. The middle-aged man was wiping his hands.

Qian Laifu quickly pulled his granddaughter behind him. His granddaughter was getting more and more mischievous. "I'm sorry. She's just a child and doesn't know any better. If she offended you, I apologize."

"It's nothing. I just wanted to scare him, but I didn't expect her to blow her nose on my hand as soon as she came up."

Qian Laifu was stunned when the middle-aged handsome man spoke. "You...you...you are...you are..."

"Ahem!" The handsome middle-aged man cleared his throat. "What? I took a shower, changed my clothes, shaved, and combed my hair, and you don't recognize me?"

Qian Laifu nodded blankly. "You're so handsome, how could your wife run off with your brother?" He quickly snapped out of his daze. "Look at my mouth, I just... I just..."

Qian Laifu hadn't figured out how to make amends yet, but Xie Zhenyun said, "It's okay, it's all in the past. My brother and I are siblings, I'm handsome, and my brother is no less so. I'm away from home most of the time, so things got out of hand."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Laifu quickly changed the subject. "You're so young, I can't let Gousheng call you grandpa. Gousheng, call me uncle."

Gou Sheng pointed at Xie Zhenyun's hand and shouted, "No way! He's a dirty kid!" So young, yet she'd been calling him "Grandpa" for over two months! Humph! Liar!
Xie Zhenyun pulled a chicken leg from his pocket. "Uncle has a chicken leg here. Do you want some? Just call me if you do."

Little Dog Sheng: "..." You have no sportsmanship. "Uncle."

"Good boy." Xie Zhenyun gave the chicken leg to Gou Sheng. Gou Sheng took a big bite. So delicious!
Qian Laifu felt embarrassed. "Thank you, sir. You don't need to give her a chicken leg. She never got to eat chicken legs back home."

"It's alright." Although this little guy often annoys him, he's also quite fun. Besides, if it weren't for these two, he wouldn't have cheered up. If he had continued drinking, he might have already drunk himself to death.

Xie Zhenyun rubbed Gou Sheng's little head. "Why are you calling me 'Master' again? If you don't want to call me Brother Xie, just call me nephew."

Then just call me bro.

His father said that they didn't know what would happen when they went to the capital. Xie Zhenyun was not related to them, so they couldn't involve him.

When they were almost in the capital, they had to part ways with Xie Zhenyun.

Xie Zhenyun has helped them so much; they cannot repay kindness with enmity.

"Thanks, brother."

"Hey."

"Then I'll go help the stableman tidy up the stables."

"Go."

"Gousheng, don't make your Grandpa Xie angry."

Well, I'm back to being subservient.

The puppy didn't want to talk.

The puppy took a big bite of the chicken leg.

Xie Zhenyun felt sorry for Qian Laifu when Gou Sheng ignored his grandfather. He hoped that the doctors in Beijing could cure the child, otherwise his grandfather's efforts would have been in vain.

When they set off again, Xiao Gou Sheng finally didn't have to walk to the capital on her short legs. Sitting in the carriage, Xiao Gou Sheng squinted in the sun and thought: If the Tang family didn't have any other motives, she would definitely slap herself twice.

Xie Zhenyun smiled at Gou Sheng like a little kitten. This kid has had it tough; he's been following them for so long and he's even developed some muscles.

The caravan was much faster than Qian Laifu and his men.

In less than a month, the caravan was only a hundred li away from the capital.

In the morning, Xie Zhenyun was about to wash up when Qian Laifu came over with his dog, Sheng. Xie Zhenyun thought Qian Laifu wanted to ask him when he was leaving. Unexpectedly, Qian Laifu closed the door as soon as he came in. After closing the door, he said that he and his grandson were leaving.

Xie Zhenyun was taken aback. "Brother Tian, ​​what do you mean by that?"

Qian Laifu felt embarrassed. "Brother Xie, I have other business to attend to in the capital besides getting my grandson medical treatment. I'm afraid of troubling you, so let's part ways here. Thank you for your care; I'll repay you if I have the chance in the future."

Xie Zhenyun: "..." So these two, grandfather and grandson, are really not innocent? "You're not going to file a complaint with the emperor, are you?"

"No, no. We're leaving now. Take care."

After saying that, Qian Laifu was about to leave.

"Wait a minute." Xie Zhenyun took out a silver ingot from his pocket. "Since you put it that way, then I won't keep you any longer. Here's five taels of silver, take it and buy some chicken legs for Gousheng."

"No need, no need, I have money."

"How much silver do you have?" Xie Zhenyun stuffed a silver ingot into Qian Laifu's hand. "See you again someday, take care."

Qian Laifu was very embarrassed. "I lied to you, and you still gave me money. I... I'm too ashamed to accept it."

Xie Zhenyun smiled. "You lied to me, but you also enlightened me. Alright, we've been together for so long, I can still see what kind of person you are. You're just an honest and simple person. Since you want to separate from me, it must be for my own good. Take care, and see you again someday."

Qian Laifu's eyes welled up with tears. "Take care of yourself too. Work hard to make money, and then settle down and start a family."

"Okay. Take care."

"Take care." Qian Laifu wiped his eyes and led Gou Sheng away.

Xie Zhenyun smiled as he watched their retreating figures. He never imagined he'd been fooled by an old farmer.

However, his decision to part ways with him when they were almost in the capital, so as not to implicate him, shows that he made the right choice.

Hopefully, he can find a miracle doctor to cure his grandson's illness, and hopefully he can also accomplish another thing he wants to do.

Xie Zhenyun sat for a while before starting to wash up.

On the other side, Qian Laifu and his grandson took out the dog-beating stick and the broken bowl.

Qian Laifu and his grandson heard news of Chunhua before they even reached the capital. And it was all good news.

It is said that Madam Tang not only took Chunhua to the banquet, but also hired a female tutor for Chunhua and gave her a small shop to learn how to manage.

People say the Tang family is grateful and that Chunhua is blessed.

Qian Laifu couldn't help but wonder if his father had been tricked by the White Impermanence.

That evening, Qian Laifu asked Gousheng to invite his father up.

As soon as his father arrived, Qian Laifu told him what he had heard and his guesses. "Dad, have you offended the White Impermanence?"

Gou Sheng glared at Qian Laifu. "Don't believe everything you hear. Didn't you just say that on the fifth of next month, Madam Tang is taking her daughter and Chunhua to Longhua Temple outside the city to burn incense? When the time comes, you can observe from afar whether Chunhua has gained or lost weight, whether she's genuinely happy or just pretending, and then come and ask me if I've offended the White Impermanence?"
