Demon King's Repayment - chapter 235

“That’s not the case. The money and jewelry that you gave are well kept in the warehouse.” Shi Jun waved his hands repeatedly, “Brother said that it is really good here. If we want to get used to this place as soon as possible, we need to have more contact with people. We also need to learn a skill to stand up, and we can’t sit still. So he goes out early every day and returns at night.”

“My brother also said that he would find a master to teach me to read and recognize the characters here.” Shi Jun grimaced and pulled Yuan Xiang’s sleeves, “Ah Xiang, please help me tell my brother to find a master for me later, and let me be happy for a few days.”

Yuan Xiang shook off his hand, “I won’t help you with this, your brother is right.”

Shi Jun lowered his face and sighed for a while. He quickly forgot the worries that had not yet come, and asked Wu Yuan and Li Yu to go down to the pond to play.

“What’s there to play in the water? We don’t like to get wet all over,” Wu Yuan shook his head repeatedly, and Li Yu waved his hands.

“But there are small silverfish under the pond, as well as big lobsters and crabs. You can also pick sweet lotus seeds…”

“Don’t say it, stop it, let’s go.” 

The three little ones happily went, leaving Yuan Xiang aside.

She planned to go to the market by herself to see if she could meet a master who was working there. One of the two brothers could endure hardships, had perseverance, and knew the big picture. The other was a smart demon, well versed in the world. They suddenly came to a different world, and even if they wanted to, they had to adapt to life there smoothly.

Yuan Xiang was happy for them.

The sun was very strong in summer, and there were not many people walking in the market, but outside the Tongji Hall on the street, there was a huge crowd.

Tongji Hall was originally the pharmacy of Dr. Han Rui’s family. Dr. Han helped the world all his life, and the doctor’s benevolent heart made Tongji Hall’s signboard famous far and near. It was a pity that since the accidental death of the Han couple, that pharmacy had been occupied by criminals. She heard recently that it was out of business.

 What happened again? There were so many people watching.

Yuan Xiang curiously separated the crowd and squeezed in to take a look.

Outside the door of Tongji Hall, there was a young man in white, who was Han Youzhi, the young master of Han who disappeared for a year. At the age of ten years old, at that moment, he was not as thin as the previous year, when he was described as haggard. After living in a secluded place in the mountain for a year, he was raised by a demon to a handsome young man.

The two proprietresses, one fat and one thin, and their husbands blocked the door of the pharmacy in desperation.

The fat Zhu Shi twisted the handkerchief and pointed at Han Youzhi, scolding, and the spit was almost sprayed on his face, “The broom star who killed his father and mother, you still have the face to come back? Back then, you were raised well by us. You didn’t know how to be grateful, and ran away without a word. You wasted our money. To take care of your family’s funeral, I don’t know how much money I lost to your family. It’s not even counted with the amount we spent on you. You should be embarrassed. When you come back, you want to settle the family property with your elders?”

She was aggressive, but her heart was actually empty. She didn’t know what kind of bad luck they encountered that year. The family went bankrupt one after another. If Han Youzhi came back, these dead objects could not be moved left or right, which would mean that they belonged to this child. Naturally, she would absolutely refuse.

Facing the fat and fierce woman, Han Youzhi’s young back was straight. He looked at the signboard written by his grandfather on the top of his head, and every word was sonorous, “Originally, what is right and wrong in the mundane world, I planned to forget it. But you are using the signboard left by my grandfather and father, selling counterfeit medicines and murdering people, so I can’t stand it.” 

The crowd suddenly burst into an uproar.

“Selling counterfeit medicine?”

“No wonder I took the medicine but it didn’t work for several months.”

 “Is it really true?”

“Young Master Han is Dr. Han’s son, if it’s not the truth, how can he come out and ruin his family’s business?” The thin and dark Jiang Shi pushed her husband away and stood up, waving her hand in a gesture of wanting to fight, “You little brat with no conscience! We raised you for a few days for nothing, how dare you disobey your elders like this?”

Several Han clan members who had been attracted by them also pointed and helped to speak. In fact, they all know who was right. But who made Han Youzhi just a helpless teenager? So what if he was bullied?

When Yuan Xiang squeezed in from the crowd, the farce was being staged into a tense moment. She looked around in the crowd, and sure enough, she soon saw the figure of Hui Teng in an inconspicuous corner. At that moment, she clasped her hands together and bit her handkerchief. The old mother worried about the kid nervously.

Yuan Xiang squeezed to her side and patted her shoulder, startling her.

“Ah Xiang? Why are you here?”

“I happened to be passing by. Han Youzhi is doing well, I think he has a strong aura. What are you nervous about?”

“I-I’m afraid that Youzhi will be bullied.” Hui Teng took Yuan Xiang’s hand, “Ah Xiang, I’m so nervous.”
