Chapter 2221 Dragon Jade
"Now, the old man begs you to give Tongtong a place to live and settle down after I leave. You have a distinguished status and I think you are a noble son. I hope you can arrange Tongtong in your house, no matter what kind of job it is, even if it is a handyman. That’s fine, as long as there’s a bite to eat. Situ Reading.
М”
"Let him live to grow up, and then you can tell him all this. I wonder if you, sir... are you willing to do this favor for the old man?"
At this point, he was full of embarrassment: "I also know that this is a bit too much. After all, we are strangers to each other. You have helped us just now, but there is really no other way. The old man is also willing to give that jade pendant to you, sir, just treat it as It’s the cost of being raised by adults…”
He looked at Ye Feng. At this point, he had nothing to say.
At Tongtong's age, even if he had a jade pendant worth tens of thousands, it would not be of any use.
Maybe it will be remembered by someone who is interested and swallow up every bit of it.
My life will be lost.
The old man obviously understood this, so he entrusted the orphan to Ye Feng, hoping that Ye Feng could raise him up.
Looking at the expectant look in the old man's eyes, Ye Feng suddenly smiled: "You... just believe in me?"
"Ahem... You wouldn't believe me if I told you that I fully believed you. However, you did make the old man feel trustworthy. Moreover, if you say something inappropriate, we have no choice now but this."
The old man smiled bitterly.
These words made Ye Feng give him a high look. The old man still had some knowledge.
Then, tremblingly, he took out a bag wrapped in several layers from the inner wall of the straw bed.
After opening it layer by layer, a spotless jade pendant was finally revealed inside.
Over the years, he has really collected this jade pendant very well.
"This is……"
Ye Feng didn't do anything at first, but when he stirred up his mental power on the jade pendant, his eyes suddenly became focused.
He actually couldn't sense the material of this jade pendant.
It is not an ordinary spiritual jade at all.
Moreover, inside the jade pendant, a small blood-red swimming dragon can be vaguely seen, looming.
You can feel an extremely restrained but extremely powerful power from the jade pendant.
The level of power was very high, making him feel that it was vaguely like what he had felt from Lie Yun before.
"Fantasy?!"
Ye Feng's heart suddenly jumped and he was shocked.
This jade pendant... turned out to be a sacred object.
No wonder the old man said that it could be sold for at least tens of thousands of spirit stones.
Obviously, this is the price that the old man just guessed without having a clear understanding of the jade pendant.
A divine object is definitely worth more than tens of thousands of spirit stones.
This made Ye Feng admire the old man even more.
He has always kept such a precious thing well hidden. If he had sold it earlier and paid for it, he would definitely have lived a very prosperous life here.
But now, in order to give Yuetong a stable place to grow up, he chose to take risks and believe in himself.
"How is it? Sir, can you agree to the old man's request?"
The old man spoke again in a low voice.
Ye Feng withdrew his gaze and looked at him, not knowing what to say for a moment.
He spends generously, making people mistakenly think that he is a disciple of the aristocratic family here.
But Ye Feng knew very well what situation he was in.
If you really want to agree, it is a commitment.
Where can I go to find a place for Yuetong to settle down?
And at this moment when he was contemplating, Yuan Ling's voice suddenly sounded.
"Oh my god, this is Long Jade?!"
"Ye Feng, what are you still doing? You've made so much money, you're so lucky! Even dragon jade can fall into your hands from the sky?"
"Come on, what else are you thinking about?!"
"Long Yu? What is it?" Ye Feng was stunned.
Just because of this jade pendant, can you see the looming dragon?
"Don't worry about what it is, just agree to it first." Yuan Ling urged.
Afraid that Ye Feng would not agree, the jade pendant would be taken back.
Ye Feng scratched his head and said: "But... this jade pendant is the only token left by Xiao Yuetong's parents. I can't be greedy, right?"
"..."
Yuan Ling fell silent for a moment, and after a while he said dullly: "Forget it, it's up to you."
Obviously, he also knew Ye Feng's temperament and would not do anything against his will, so he did not continue to dissuade him.
The old man on the straw bed looked at Ye Feng who remained silent, coughed twice, and begged: "If it is really inconvenient for you, can you sell this thing to you? I just hope that you can give Yuetong some money."
"He has been very smart since he was a child. With some spiritual stones in his hand, he will definitely not be able to starve himself."
It would definitely not work if Xiao Yuetong was allowed to sell this thing by himself.
Seeing the old man looking at him with hope, Ye Feng sighed helplessly, nodded and said: "I am not a person who refuses to save someone. I actually... have my own difficulties."
"Let's do this. I'll take the jade pendant and keep it for safekeeping. I'll see what Yuetong's plan is later."
"Then...thank you for your kindness, sir. The old man can only repay you in the next life."
The old man breathed a sigh of relief.
It seemed that his heart was over, and not long after saying these words, he passed away quietly.
Seeing this, Ye Feng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"Grandpa, the potatoes are here. Get up and eat them."
At this time, Yuetong walked in carrying a wooden basin. Seeing this scene, his expression suddenly changed.
"Snapped."
The wooden basin filled with several palm-sized yam also slipped from his hand unconsciously.
"Grandpa! Grandpa!!"
The little guy threw himself to the bedside and burst into tears.
"Grandpa, why?! Why is it still like this even after taking medicine? No! No!"
Ye Feng couldn't bear to hear such sad cries.
When his crying subsided, Ye Feng slowly stepped forward, patted his shoulder and said softly: "Don't be too uncomfortable, did you see? Your grandfather still has a smile on his face, which means he left." By that time, I no longer had any regrets in my heart.”
"He left with a smile. Don't be sad anymore. I'm sure your grandpa, Jiuquanxia, wouldn't want to see you in such pain."
"Why, big brother, why did grandpa still die even though he took the medicine?"
The little guy's eyes were dull and he was mumbling to himself.
"Hey... that medicine is only two or three grades of elixirs. Your grandfather is running out of oil and gas, and new injuries and old illnesses are breaking out. There is no medicine or stone to cure it, and even I can't do anything."
Ye Feng shook his head and sighed.
"Actually, it's a relief for him to leave now. The only thing he can't worry about is you."
Speaking of this, Ye Feng looked at Yuetong and said seriously: "Before your grandfather left, he hoped that I could find a place for you to settle down, but... the situation here is a bit complicated."
"Little guy, what do you think? If you want to follow me, I will find a way to settle you down. If you are unwilling to follow me, I will also give you a sum of spiritual stones to provide you with food and clothing. Worry-free growth.”
"Can I bury grandpa first?" Yuetong wiped the corners of his eyes and whispered.
"Of course." Ye Feng nodded.
"Thank you, big brother."
Later, with the help of Ye Feng, Yuetong successfully laid the old man to rest.
He knelt in front of the tombstone all night again.
The next day, when the sky was slightly bright, the little guy kowtowed heavily at the tombstone, stood up with difficulty, and walked towards Ye Feng.
