C4 Second Elder (2/2)
This was also the Xiao family's income as the number one family in Wu He County. The combined income of the other few family clans might not be much higher than the Xiao family.
”Thank you, Patriarch.”
If a single person wanted to dig up 10,000 spirit stones, even a hundred years wouldn't be enough to do so. In that case, no matter how talented Xiao Qi was, he would still be crippled. His status was even inferior to a servant girl of the Xiao family when he went to the Fire Cave to find spirit stones.
Xiao Changsheng snorted: ”Second Elder, if you feel dissatisfied and think that this punishment is too heavy, you can bring it up. I am very good at listening to other people's opinions, don't you think so, Second Uncle?”
As he spoke, Xiao Changsheng's gaze landed on Xiao Kun's body. The muscles on Xiao Kun's face twitched, and did not respond. Ever since his nephew came back, not only had his strength increased, even his personality had changed.
He suddenly realized that the entire matter had been in Xiao Changsheng's hands from the very beginning. The crippled Xiao Qi had caused the Second Elder to appear, and his subsequent exchange with the Second Elder had attracted his and the other elders' attention.
With the incident this time, even if others had any objections towards Xiao Changsheng, they would probably not dare to say it out loud. This kind of method and strategy simply wasn't something that a sixteen year old child could come up with.
From the very beginning, he didn't even have a chance to react. If Xiao Changsheng's ”Second Uncle” didn't wake him up and remind him, he probably would have suspected that he was being too suspicious. This was a provocation!
”I don't dare.” The Second Elder replied.
”It's good that you know that I don't dare. Otherwise, this young master wouldn't mind if there was one less elder and one less trash in the Xiao family!” Xiao Changsheng coldly replied, and without looking at everyone else, he directly headed towards his own room, with small bamboo following him immediately.
At this moment, Xiao Changsheng's previous words still echoed in small bamboo's heart. It was as if he had eaten honey, and her heart was so sweet that it almost melted.
”Young Master's woman is so shy!” small bamboo chanted in his heart as his face flushed red.
”Great Elder, you will arrange for Xiao Qi to head to the Fire Cave. I will send Second Elder there.” Seeing Xiao Changsheng leave, Xiao Kun took the initiative to speak.
Even if Xiao Kun was not the Patriarch, the Great Elder would not dare to doubt a person like the Xiao Family who could cover the sky with one hand.
Inside the room, small bamboo looked at Xiao Changsheng with curiosity, like a curious baby, he continuously sized him up.
”Little girl, what are you looking at?” Xiao Changsheng coldly asked with a straight face. Although small bamboo was older than Xiao Changsheng by two years, in Xiao Changsheng's eyes, small bamboo was just a little girl.
The small bamboo didn't care about this, she was just a servant girl serving the Young Master, it wasn't wrong for the Young Master to call him a little girl.
”I only feel that young master is a different person, he is different from the young master I knew in the past.” small bamboo replied.
”Oh, where's the difference?” was startled, then looked at small bamboo and asked. Indeed, the current him was not the old Xiao Changsheng, so his personality was naturally different from the old Xiao Changsheng, even though he had restrained himself to do what he had done according to the old Xiao Changsheng's behavior, to small bamboo who had been serving Xiao Changsheng since he was young, such a cover couldn't escape the eyes of the small bamboo.
”Well, the small bamboo can't say where it's different, it's just that it's different.” small bamboo pouted.
”Then do you like the former young master, or the current young master?” Xiao Changsheng asked with a smile that was not a smile.
”No matter if it's the old young master, or the current young master, as long as it's a young master, small bamboo likes all of them.” small bamboo answered without hesitation.
Xiao Changsheng's face revealed a smile, and asked: ”You aren't curious at all how I am able to suddenly cultivate?”
”Why should I be curious? In the eyes of the small bamboo, young master has always been the best, even being born with a blocked meridian won't be difficult for young master, as long as young master wants to do it, young master does not have anything you cannot!” small bamboo said firmly, her eyes did not show any signs of hesitation, this kind of expression could not be feigned.
”Alright, you can leave first.”
said indifferently to the small bamboo after a moment of silence. Towards this kind of innocent little girl, who was almost as clean as water, even he, who had lived for several thousand years, had never seen her before. This made him jealous of the old Xiao Changsheng.
