“Why did Zhou Kangqi frame my second brother like this? Is there any grudge between them?” Xiao Jingting asked.
“Your second brother was originally engaged to Sun Miaoyin. I heard that Zhou Kanqi’s brother Zhou Kanghe and Sun Miaoyin had a good relationship.” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jingting squinted his eyes. Xiao Jingting had seen Sun Miaoyin before. She was a dignified and noble looking woman, based on the original body owner’s memories. Although Xiao Jingfeng’s qualification was good, Sun Miaoyin didn’t have much of a crush on Xiao Jingfeng who didn’t have the wood attribute.
In the past, when the original body owner’s parents were still around, Sun Miaoyin might have reluctantly married Xiao Jingfeng. However, now that nobody knew if the original body owner’s parents were alive or not, Sun Miaoyin would naturally no longer spare any thought to Xiao Jingfeng whom she originally despised.
“After your brother was reported to have had an affair with Feng Xue’er, the Sun family broke off your brother’s engagement to Sun Miaoyin. I also think that the Sun family might have gotten involved with the matter between your brother and Feng Xue’er.” Xu Muan said.
“When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; (a Chinese saying, meaning: loss of a supporter; members run away when the family or situation falls) when a wall is about to collapse, everybody gives it a push! (a Chinese saying, meaning: Everyone hits a person who is down)” Xiao Jingting said.
Xu Muan lowered his head and thought secretly: Yes!
“By the way, you said you need Bixin pill to detoxify the poison in second brother, and it costs 1,000 taels of silver?” Xiao Jingting asked.
Xu Muan nodded somewhat hesitantly, “Yes! If the Xiao family were to buy it, a thousand taels of silver would be enough. However, if we were to buy it, I am afraid we have to pull some strings and it will be more expensive.” The smaller the place, the more expensive this kind of high-end stuff was.
Xiao Jingting nodded his head and said, “No matter what, let’s collect some silver first, shall we?”
“I think the grapes in the yard are ripe. If you sell them, you should be able to make some profit.” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes, but I don’t want to lower the price, so I have already agreed with the owner of the Yuehe restaurant to sell it all to him. The owner also said that the price could be a little higher.”
“Huh?” Xu Muan couldn’t help but feel a little strange: “Aren’t there many big families in the village who have started growing grapes? Won’t the boss lose money by raising the price at this time?”
Xiao Jingting shook his head and said, “No, the boss said it can be sold. Even if he can’t sell it himself, he can still sell it to other places.” How could the grapes he grew with the Spirit Spring water be the same as those grown by the landlords?
“That’s good.” Xu Muan said.
“By the way, the first batch of wine I made earlier is ready to drink.” When making the wine, Xiao Jingting added a lot of spiritual spring water to it, and the wine contained a lot of aura. “I have already prepared two jars of wine for sale to the owner of Yuehe Restaurant, and one jar can be sold for a hundred taels of silver.”
Xu Muan was a little surprised, “It can be sold for that much?”
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes!” Actually, a hundred silver isn’t even so expensive. This spiritual wine could improve spiritual power. Moreover, in the midst of battle, when spiritual energy was depleted, a sip of spirit wine could restore 30% of one’s spiritual energy, the effect was much better than two Qi recovery pills.”
“If we calculate like this, it shouldn’t take long before we get 1,000 taels of silver.” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes, originally, I was thinking that when I have the silver, I would buy a demonic beast that could fly and help with cultivation. However, it is more urgent to get enough silver to buy an antidote for Second Brother first.”
Xu Muan nodded and said, “Yes!”
“I remember that second brother likes to drink a lot, so you should take a jar of wine to him later.” Xiao Jingting said.
According to Xiao Jingting’s knowledge, being poisoned by colorful spiders was very tormenting. If he got drunk, he should feel better. The wine he brewed had a strong aura that should have a certain suppressive effect on the poison.
Xu Muan nodded and said, “Yes!”
“By the way, did you try contacting our eldest brother after the accident with second brother?” Xiao Jingting asked.
In the original body owner’s memories, Xiao Jingting’s big brother was a very capable person. The original body owner was very respectful to his eldest brother on the surface but hated him very much in heart, thinking that his parents were partial. He had the same attributes as his big brother Xiao Qingyan, yet his parents spent most of their family’s money on his eldest brother.
The original body owner thought if his parents spent the same amount of effort on him, he would have been a rank 4 Qi Practitioner already. There would be no reason for him to still be overpowered by his second oldest brother who only had some useless attributes.
“Yes, but it may be because of the heavy task of the Academy that I failed to contact him.” Xu Muan said.
Xiao Jingting’s heart flashed with a few sneers. Was it because his eldest brother was too busy, or was he just wouldn’t bother to get in touch?!
Even though the rules of the Bifeng Academy were strict, it didn’t mean one couldn’t even send out a letter.
Mu Shuyu took a jar of wine and walked in the room, saying, “Jinfeng, this is from your brother, he made it himself. He knows that you love to drink, so he specially asked me to bring it to you.”
Xiao Jingfeng looked at the wine in Mu Shuyu’s hand and said, “Jingting is considerate.”
As Xiao Jinfeng looked at the wine in Mu Shuyu’s hand, he only felt that this jar of wine became more precious. Back then when his situation was still good, he invited the whole mercenary team to drink. But now that he was down, those people, one by one, said that he had a poor character and acted as if they did not recognize him.
“Brother Jingfeng, relax. Xu Muan told me that when they got enough silver, they will buy an antidote for you.” Mu Shuyu comforted him.
Xiao Jinfeng nodded and said, “I know.”
Xiao Jinfeng opened the wine jar and took a sip of wine, his mind full of various thoughts. When his parents were alive, they valued the eldest brother, Xiao Qingyan, the most and were proud of him in every way.
When he was a teenager, Xiao Qingyan was sent by his parents to Bifeng Academy at a heavy price. The Bifeng Academy was full of aura and was a holy land for cultivation. The graduates of Bifeng Academy were at last sixth level Qi Practitioners.
His parents often praised Xiao Qingyan in front of Xiao Jinfeng, for being successful, saying that he only needed to be half as successful as Xiao Qingyan, his older brother.
Xiao Jinfeng always thought that if one day he was in trouble, his promising elder brother, Xiao Qingyan, would give him a hand. But he never thought that when he was really in trouble, the only person he could count on was his younger brother who was uneducated and only made troubles all day long.
