Chapter 72 The Untamed 15
Ling Xi brought Xue Yang to the second floor of the inn, gave the waiter a piece of silver, and asked him to help buy two sets of clothes for Xue Yang.
I didn’t think so much when I came here, but now I can only buy ready-made ones.
The waiter was naturally happy to receive a considerable amount of errand fee just for one trip.
After the waiter left, Ling Xi looked at the thin and emaciated Xue Yang, who was covered in wounds, and asked softly, "What's your name? How old are you?"
Xue Yang lowered his head and did not speak for a long time. Ling Xi and Wei Ying did not urge him. After a long time, he raised his head and whispered, "My name is Xue Yang, and I am seven years old."
Ling Xi touched his head and said with a smile: "Then can I call you Ah Yang? If you have nowhere to go, can you just follow me?"
Xue Yang looked at Ling Xi with trepidation in his eyes. He asked, "Do you have any candy?"
The man promised to give him candy, but he lied to him. He didn't keep his word. What a bad guy.
Ling Xi smiled. It turned out that he was addicted to sweets.
"Yes, there is plenty of candy."
Ling Xi took out a small purse from the storage space, filled it with candies, tied the small purse around Xue Yang's body, and stuffed a piece of candy into his mouth.
Feeling the sweetness in his mouth, Xue Yang squinted his eyes happily, revealing his pointed little fangs, looking extremely cute.
Xue Yang looked at Ling Xi and gently held one of her fingers to express his agreement.
He didn't dare hold her hand for too long, fearing that she would think he was dirty.
The child's hands were covered with wounds, and Ling Xi felt a little distressed.
She gently took Xue Yang's hand and smiled tenderly: "Ayang, my last name is Wei, Wei Yu, and this is my younger brother Wei Ying. He is nine years old, two years older than you. You can call me sister and him brother. We are a family from now on, don't be afraid."
Xue Yang was held by Ling Xi, and he felt that she was so gentle, and there was a faint fragrance on her body, which smelled very good.
Ling Xi had the dishes on the table reheated, and ordered a bowl of sweet porridge and a bowl of egg custard for Xue Yang. She was afraid that he hadn't eaten for a long time and would have diarrhea if he ate something too spicy, so she gave him something light.
Xue Yang hasn't had a full meal for a long time. Ever since something happened in his family, he became an orphan and a beggar. The thing he experienced most every day was hunger.
However, drinking the sweet millet porridge, Xue Yang felt that it was the most delicious thing in the world.
After dinner, Ling Xi had two rooms arranged and hot water provided. Then he looked at his brother and said, "Aying, take Ayang to wash up, and then help him take care of his wounds and apply medicine to him. Do you hear me?"
Wei Ying was very happy. He held Xue Yang's hand and smiled at him, "My name is Wei Ying. From now on, I will be your brother."
From now on, he will also have a younger brother.
Xue Yang called out softly, "Brother."
He is also a very good-looking child. Like Ling Xi, Wei Ying is a bit obsessed with looks and likes pretty girls. And when he hears Xue Yang calling him brother, who is so obedient and gentle, Wei Ying's favorability towards Xue Yang increases rapidly.
Wei Ying pulled Xue Yang to their room, his expression full of joy, "Brother, let's go."
Ling Xi took this opportunity to go out and write a letter to the Nie family in Qinghe, informing them of everything that happened to the Chang family in Liyang. The Nie family should send someone to find out the truth and deal with the matter.
Although she beat Chang Ci'an today, the Chang family of Liyang is still standing strong in Liyang. This is the territory of the Nie family of Qinghe, so it is better to leave it to them to deal with it themselves.
I heard that the new leader of the Nie family who took office in recent years is upright and should pay attention to the affairs of the Chang family of Liyang.
After returning to the inn, Ling Xi saw Xue Yang, who had just washed himself clean and was wearing the clothes that Ling Xi had someone buy for him. His face was fair, and he looked well-behaved and cute, like a soft and obedient little rabbit.
The wounds on his face and hands had been treated, and they were wrapped with gauze after being treated with medicine. Wei Ying said to Ling Xi happily: "Sister, look at Ayang wearing new clothes. Doesn't he look good? They are white and soft."
"Yes." Ling Xi went over and picked up Xue Yang. While putting her hand on Xue Yang's wrist to check his pulse, she praised him, "Our Ah Yang is so handsome, and he is also strong and brave."
Xue Yang was young after all, and after being praised so directly, a blush appeared on his fair face, and he felt extremely shy.
Ling Xi felt relieved after checking his pulse and found that apart from some malnutrition, he had no other health problems.
That's good. As for malnutrition, he can be cured by taking good care of himself. She has many treasures. If you feed him more, he will be plump and white soon.
At night, Xue Yang and Wei Ying slept in the same room, mainly because they were both young, so Ling Xi was worried about them sleeping in a separate room. Also, Xue Yang had just arrived, so he must be feeling uneasy, so sleeping in the same room with A Ying would make him feel more secure.
Lying on the warm and soft bed covered with a quilt, Xue Yang felt as if he was dreaming.
Even though he was starving in the morning, he had food to eat and new clothes to wear in the evening, and he could sleep in a comfortable bed instead of in a shabby, dilapidated temple.
The most important thing is that he has a sister and a brother, and he can feel that they truly love and accept him.
He wrapped himself in a quilt and slowly fell asleep in the warm temperature.
This was the first time he felt warmth since the incident at his family’s home. He no longer had to suffer from hunger, cold, or being bullied.
The Nie family of Qinghe.
Nie Mingjue received a letter for no reason, and the envelope was addressed to Nie Mingjue.
He couldn't help but feel strange, and when he was about to open the letter to read it, his good friend Lan Xichen walked in from outside.
Nie Mingjue took a few steps and handed the letter to Lan Xichen: "Xichen, you came at the right time. I received a letter and I don't know who sent it. Let's take a look together."
Lan Xichen smiled gently: "Brother Mingjue, is this inappropriate?"
Nie Mingjue patted his shoulder and smiled cheerfully, "What's inappropriate about that? This letter came in a strange way, maybe there's some conspiracy behind it?"
Lan Xichen: “Brother Mingjue, don’t worry. Someone might be looking for you for something.”
Nie Mingjue opened the letter, and Lan Xichen's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the handwriting on the letter.
What beautiful handwriting, fresh and elegant, flowing smoothly, the free and easy character of the writer is revealed between the lines.
Nie Mingjue finished reading the contents of the letter and was shocked by what was written in it. He immediately became furious.
He handed the letter to Lan Xichen and said angrily, “This is outrageous. How dare the Liyang Chang family act like this! They deserve to die.”
Lan Xichen unfolded the letter and read it carefully, only then did he understand why Nie Mingjue was so angry.
"It's indeed too much." He nodded and said, "Then how do you plan to deal with the Chang family, Brother Mingjue?"
"Of course, we want them to pay for the lives of those they killed. I will personally lead people to Liyang to find out the facts, and then give an explanation to the people of Liyang."
Lan Xichen: “Then I will go with Brother Mingjue. Since this is a matter concerning the Immortal Sect, it is better for our two families to handle it together.”
Nie Mingjue nodded in agreement, “Xichen is absolutely right.”
Lan Xichen lowered his eyes and looked at the words on the paper, and couldn't help but want to know the owner of the handwriting.
