The Mystic Wind Parrot was a relatively common parrot, but this one looked relatively special. There was actually a tuft of golden bird feathers on its head.
Xiaohu was attracted by the raised feathers. He wanted to touch them, but he was afraid, so he continued to grab Dahu’s fingers to touch the bird. Dahu wanted to hammer this troublesome brother to death.
“Mother, is it dead?” Erhu asked.
Su Xiaoxiao touched its small chest and said, “No, it’s still breathing. It might have fainted. It can fly when it wakes up later.”
Xiaohu ruthlessly shook off Dahu’s finger and poked it with his index finger.
At this moment, a few fierce servants came ashore.
“The few of you, search that ship! Ah Feng and the others, follow me!
Remember, we have to catch that little bastard!”
“Yes!”
The servants divided into two groups. One group boarded the pleasure boat next door, and the other came to Pearl Pavilion.
As expected, the group of people who came to Pearl Pavilion saw the parrot on
Da Hu ts stomach.
One of the servants shouted, “Brother, look! It’s over there!”
The leader of the servants looked over and saw the Mystic Wind Parrot with a tuft of golden fur.
He strode over. The boss of the pleasure boat was worried about causing a
scene and went forward to ask what they were doing. He was scolded coldly by the head servant. “Go away!”
The boss of the pleasure boat trembled in fear.
The few of them came to Su Xiaoxiao and the three children. The leader of the servants snorted. “Little bastard, so you’re here!”
He rolled up his sleeves and was about to go forward to grab it.
Nothing good was going to come out of this. It was as if he was going to skin the little thing alive.
Xiaohu blocked them with his small hand. “What are you doing?”
This was the first time they had seen triplets. They were curious, but it was only for a moment. It was more important to get down to business. The head servant said disdainfully, “Little thing, return the bird to me!
Otherwise, I’ll catch you too!”
Dahu turned around and shouted at the room, “Dad! Someone wants to nab
Xiaohu ! ”
If he couldn’t deal with it when faced with trouble, he could let his father do it!
Wei Ting walked out with a cold expression.
Ling Yun also came out. He heard that someone wanted to capture his rascal disciple, but he did not agree.
Wei Ting was the number one profligate son in the capital. The moment he came out, his aura as the number one in the world immediately stunned the servants.
Although Ling Yun looked thin and weak, his temperament was elegant and noble. He clearly had a powerful background.
Wei Ting looked at the servants coldly and frowned slightly, as if to say, “Is this all
He came to the servants and said arrogantly, “What’s the matter?”
The servants’ legs went weak.
The leader of the servants mustered his courage and said, “That, that parrot pecked my master’s little… ahem, in short, it pecked my master. My master asked us to capture it and kill it!”
The three little ones acted cute towards their biological father.
“Isn’t he already dead?” Wei Ting said.
“Huh?” The servants were stunned.
Wei Ting flicked his wide sleeve and swept the little thing off Dahu’s stomach.
“There, he’s deader than dead.”
The little parrot’s limbs were stiff, and it did indeed look like a carcass.
The head servant did not say anything else. He coughed lightly and left with his subordinates.
“Brother, are you leaving just like that?”
“What do you want if you don’t leave?”
“They killed that bird. We have to get some…”
“Yes, yes, yes! You only know how to want it! You don’t even know how you died one day. You ignorant thing!”
He had seen the palace token on that young master’s waist just now. The other party was a noble who could enter and leave the palace freely. How could they, as small fries, provoke him?
Moreover, the bird was already dead. They could be considered to have completed their mission.
After the few of them left, Erhu asked Wei Ting, “Dad, is it really dead?”
Wei Ting said calmly, “That’s right. We can eat roasted parrot later.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the “dead” parrot slowly moved and spread its wings bit by bit.
It already had beautiful feathers. When it spread its wings, it was even more charming.
“Wow.” The three little ones were amazed. They squatted down around it and began to watch.
The Mystic Wind Parrot’s temperament was considered gentle among parrots, but this was an exception.
It was an irritable parrot that liked to bite.
Xiaohu went to touch it.
It flapped its wings and planned to bite. Suddenly, Dahu grabbed its neck and picked it up. “Eh? Why can’t it fly?”
The Mystic Wind Parrot rolled its eyes.
“Show me,” Erhu said.
Dahu handed it to Erhu.
The Mystic Wind Parrot finally caught its breath. Before it could take a breath, Erhu grabbed its neck again. Erhu asked, “Has it not completely woken up?”
“Give it to me, give it to me!”
Xiaohu said.
Xiaohu was the weakest among the children and looked easy to bite.
Xiaohu hugged the Mystic Wind Parrot with both hands. This time, it was not strangled.
The Mystic Wind Parrot opened its beak fiercely.
“It has water on its wings.”
Xiaohu imitated Su Xiaoxiao and dusted the little parrot.
The Mystic Wind Parrot, whose brain was about to be scattered, was speechless.
Ling Yun asked Deng An to buy a birdcage.
This parrot did not look like it was easy to tame. It might be a little troublesome to get it to enter the birdcage later.
Deng An thought so.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the bird cage, the Mystic Wind Parrot flew in as if it was fleeing for its life.
Deng An was speechless.
Ling Yun returned to Pear Blossom Lane with his three evil disciples and a new parrot.
Wei Ting said seriously, “It’s very troublesome to raise birds. We have to buy bird food.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh.”
When the boss learned that they were leaving, he specially sent over a jar of pickled vegetables.
Su Xiaoxiao declined.
The boss smiled and said, “Bring it along. I think that young master just now likes it.”
He was talking about Ling Yun.
Ling Yun’s stomach was not good, so he had to eat less pickled vegetables. However, it was difficult to refuse the boss’s kindness, so Su Xiaoxiao still accepted it.
The two of them left the pleasure boat and walked towards the carriage parked by the road.
Just as she was about to sit up, a man and a woman walked over.
Who else could it be but Guo Lingxi?
Guo Lingxi had cried at home, but her eyes were still red.
She didn’t expect to meet Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting here. She was stunned.
“Cousin?”
She greeted Wei Ting.
As for Su Xiaoxiao, she chose to ignore her.
“Cousin.” Guo Huan also smiled and greeted him. Then, he looked at Su
Xiaoxiao beside Wei Ting. “This is…”
Wei Ting said, “Fiancée, Madam Su.”
Guo Huan looked at Su Xiaoxiao deeply and smiled warmly. “I see that this is Miss Su. I’m Guo Huan, Wei Ting’s cousin.”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.
Wei Ting said to Guo Huan, “When did Cousin return to the capital?”
Guo Huan smiled and said, “I just returned and was about to go to the Wei family to see you and Aunt. Have you eaten? Do you want to join me?” “I’ve eaten,” Wei Ting said. “If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first.”
“Cousin…”
Princess Lingxi wanted to call out, but she did not manage to stop the man.
The two of them got into the carriage.
Princess Lingxi stomped her feet in anger. “You’re not even married yet, and you’re already flirting all day! How improper!”
Guo Huan looked at the gradually disappearing carriage and revealed a thoughtful expression.
In the carriage, Su Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought.
“What are you thinking about?” Wei Ting asked.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “How many brothers does Princess Lingxi have?”
Wei Ting said, “Two. Guo Huan is the eldest brother of the first wife, and there’s also a second brother of the concubine.”
The brother Princess Hui An was talking about should be Guo Huan. Princess Hui An said that Guo Huan was very powerful, but Guo Huan clearly looked like a gentle young master.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Guo Huan is your cousin, but I don’t think the two of you are too close.”
Wei Ting said, “Guo Huan is closer to my sixth brother.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked curiously, “Why aren’t you close to him?”
“It’s not that we’re not close…” Wei Ting paused and said, “When I was young, Sixth Brother often brought me to the Guo family to play with Guo Huan. Strictly speaking, we were close. Later on, something happened.”
Su Xiaoxiao was curious. ‘What is it?”
Wei Ting recalled “He threw a cat tn itq death because that cat scratched my brother. He was ten years old that year. My uncle taught him a lesson. After that, he didn’t make similar mistakes again, but for some reason, I couldn’t get close to him anymore.”
“I see.” Su Xiaoxiao had an epiphany.
“Was that what you were thinking about just now?” Wei Ting asked.
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “No, I’m thinking about something else. But I want to understand your relationship with Guo Huan first.”
Wei Ting looked at her strangely.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Do you remember what I said about the fragrance I smelled in the cellar where the corpses were hidden?”
Wei Ting nodded. “I remember. The cellar that was filled with the corpses of rotten White Lotus believers. I was surprised. How could you smell the fragrance? Later on, you smelled it on a thief, but because you didn’t know where he stole the handkerchief, the clues were interrupted.” Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, ‘Guo Huan has the same smell..”
