"Second Madam, you have to stand up for my Laosi! Can't you see how badly his face is beaten up? That idiot is too vicious! " The next day, at dawn, Li Laosi, led by his wife, came to the second madam's room to complain about Ye Kong's "cruel" behavior.
"Beaten by a fool?" The second madam burst into laughter, pointed at Li Laosi, who was kneeling on the ground, and scolded, "You are too useless. What's there to talk about with a fool? He hit you, so you hit him back. Why are you crying to me?"
"No, Second Madam." Li Laosi hurriedly explained, "That kid isn't stupid anymore. He speaks fluently and doesn't hesitate to hit people. He doesn't look like the idiot who liked to smile foolishly in the past at all. I heard from his mother that after he woke up, he suddenly recovered."
"That can't be." When the second madam heard that Ye Kong's brain worked, she still did not believe it. She asked, "He has been a fool for more than ten years. How can he recover just like that?"
"Yes, but he really is not stupid anymore." Li Laosi held his head and wailed, "Second Madam, you have to stand up for this old servant. This old servant went to stop them from making noise in the middle of the night and got beaten up like this. This kid is too lawless!"
Of course, Li Laosi was not stupid enough to say that he had asked Chen Jiuniang for money. On the contrary, in order to provoke the second wife's anger, he said, "That ugly woman didn't stop her son from doing this. She clearly knows that I work for the second wife. She is obviously looking down on you. They beat a dog without looking at its owner. This is a disgrace to you."
The second madam was very proud. When she heard this, she was a little angry.
However, she was not a stupid person. Chen Jiuniang had always been honest and did not dare to do anything out of line. This was very clear to the second madam.
And she still did not believe it. How could that fool say that he was fine?
"This matter is my decision. You can go back first. Oh, go to the cabinet and get two taels of silver for treatment." The second madam thought for a while and said.
Li Laosi's wife was happy to hear that there was money, but it was exchanged with a man's blood.
Fool, just wait to be kicked out of the Ye Mansion! She thought bitterly and kowtowed to Second Madam. "Thank you, Second Madam."
"Thank you, Second Madam." Li Laosi kowtowed and followed his wife out of the door.
"The fool isn't a fool anymore. He even knows how to hit people." The Second Madam thought for a moment, then called out in a low voice, "Little Red."
"Second Madam, this servant is here." Little Red was her head maid. She was only fifteen years old, but she was already graceful and charming. More importantly, she was smart and quick-witted, and very good at handling matters.
"Did you hear what Li Laosi said just now? What do you think? "the second wife asked.
"This servant doesn't really believe that idiot will recover. He usually smiles foolishly when he sees people. When people throw stones at him, he doesn't even know how to dodge. It's most likely that Li Laosi wanted to extort Chen Jiuniang but failed. He accidentally fell and injured himself, so he came here to make a fuss." This Little Red was a smart girl. She could analyze the situation in the blink of an eye.
"En." Second Madam obviously believed in Little Red's analysis. However, she felt that Li Laosi wouldn't dare to lie to her, so she ordered, "Go to that ugly woman's courtyard and see for yourself if that idiot has recovered."
"Yes." Little Red took the order and walked out with graceful steps.
When Little Red went out, Second Madam snorted coldly. "Whether it's true or not, it's a good opportunity to kick that ugly woman out of the mansion. She's so ugly, yet she wants to live in the Ye Mansion. She's a disgrace to the Ye Mansion!"
At this moment, Ye Kong was lying on Chen Jiuniang's bed in a daze. He was still a little tired last night. He actually fell asleep while chatting with his cheap mother.
However, those conversations were still very rewarding for Ye Kong. He learned that the An Kingdom, or Cangnan Continent, valued martial arts more than literature. If he wanted to stand out, he had to be like his father, Ye Haoran. He had to practice martial arts well. Only then could he join the army and become a respectable person.
Ye Kong also asked about the population of the Cangnan Continent, what was outside the Cangnan Continent, and whether there were immortals and so on.
Chen Jiuniang couldn't answer. After all, she didn't know much. Staying in the General's Mansion and embroidering had already taken up most of her time. How could she know these gossips? She didn't know much about the An Kingdom, let alone the news outside the country.
However, she did hear about immortals from others. She heard that some people saw immortals flying on swords above the Southern City.
However, she didn't see it with her own eyes. According to the legends, there were still immortals. As for how many? Where were they? These were not things she could know.
As soon as he woke up in the morning, Ye Kong lay on the bed and pondered. Right now, the most important thing was to survive. This was a world that advocated strength. If one wanted to settle down in this world, then one must have valiant strength. Only with strength could one stand out. Otherwise, one would only be bullied and humiliated by others.
Although his father was a General, it seemed unreliable. Moreover, Ye Kong didn't want to put his fate in the hands of others, nor did he want to rely on others to survive.
Therefore, making himself stronger was the only way out!
On Earth, Ye Kong was a hooligan who avoided everyone. Although he had chopped people and hit people with bricks, he was just brave and fierce. He had never really learned martial arts. He couldn't beat an expert at all.
He thought about what other skills he had. However, after thinking about it, he suddenly realized that he had no skills at all. He didn't know how to make soap, nor did he know how to make guns. He couldn't remember two poems when talking about literature. In terms of martial arts, his mediocre hooligan skills couldn't even withstand a slap from Ye Haoran.
For the first time, he realized that he was so useless. He was almost no different from an idiot.
How could he make himself stronger?
Chen Jiuniang, who was sitting on the side, was busy with the embroidery in her hands. However, her eyes were observing her son without blinking.
She was a little worried that her son would recover the next day after recovering for one night.
It seemed that her worry was very likely. She saw her son stare at the mosquito net when he woke up. He stared at it for more than an hour without blinking. His gaze gradually became unfocused. Could it be that he was acting stupid again?
Her son was her only hope. She had just seen a glimmer of hope. She hoped that nothing bad would happen to him.
At that moment, Chen Jiuniang wanted to open her mouth to call for her son. However, she didn't expect that Ye Kong would suddenly straighten his body and sit up. He suddenly said, "Study. Only by studying and practicing hard can one become stronger!"
This voice startled Chen Jiuniang, who was about to open her mouth. Her hand trembled, and the embroidery needle pricked her finger. A drop of bright red blood seeped out.
"Aiya." Chen Jiuniang softly exclaimed.
She saw that Ye Kong quivered. He got off the bed barefooted and put his mother's finger in his mouth.
"Mother, it's fine now." When he spat out the finger, the blood had already stopped seeping out.
"Kong 'er is fine now. You've also become sensible." Chen Jiuniang had a smile on her face. Her eyes were a little moist as she looked at Ye Kong.
Ye Kong was an orphan on Earth. He had never experienced maternal love since he was young. He felt that his mother's gaze made his nose sour. This was a very unpleasant feeling.
"Stop looking. What's there to look at? I've been looking for a long time just now. "Ye Kong said unhappily.
"Mother won't look. Mother won't look." Chen Jiuniang was very happy, but her voice was nasal. However, she still looked at her son.
"I'm going to pee." Ye Kong escaped through the ground.
The toilet wasn't far away. He had already gone there once last night.
It was hard to change one's rogue habits. Ye Kong swaggered out, swaying left and right. When he met a few servants, they all secretly looked at him with a very strange expression.
"Look, this is that idiot Ye Kong. Don't think that he's the son of a general. He can't even be compared to a servant." A servant pointed at Ye Kong from behind.
Another newly promoted servant, who seemed to have just entered the household, asked in a low voice, "I don't think he looks like an idiot?"
"How is he not? He's an idiot. He's always smiling foolishly at people with a runny nose."
"Oh." The newly promoted servant looked at Ye Kong's back and nodded.
"The young masters in the residence even made up a jingle. Ye Kong, Ye Kong, has an empty head." That old servant seemed to be afraid that the newcomer wouldn't believe him. He continued, "Don't doubt me. Last time, they even threw stones at him. If you don't believe me, I'll show you!"
With regards to this kind of thing, Ye Kong originally didn't want to bother with it. If he heard it, he would pretend that he didn't hear it.
However, when he heard that the servant wanted to throw stones at him, he was furious. F * ck you. Did I offend you? Is there anything wrong with being an idiot? Don't you know how to protect the weak?
"Who wants to throw stones at me?" Ye Kong picked up a flower pot by the side of the road and turned around to walk over.
"You're the one who wants to throw stones at me?" Ye Kong held the flower pot in one hand and poked the servant's chest with the other.
The old servant was stunned. How did this idiot speak normally? However, he didn't have time to think too much about it. Compared to the flower pot, the pebble in his hand wasn't of the same weight class.
"It's not me who wants to throw stones at you." The old servant was very crafty. He quickly stuffed the pebble into the new servant's hand.
"Then it's you!" Ye Kong arrogantly glared at him. His hooligan aura exploded as he poked the new servant's chest with his finger.
"No, I didn't. It's him …"
The old servant knew that he was going to be exposed. He didn't wait for his comrade to finish speaking. He turned around and ran. As he ran, the new servant also ran.
"Damn it. You're so cowardly. You still want to throw stones at me?" Ye Kong snorted and threw the flower pot back.
But in the distance, the two servants' panicked shouts could be heard. "An idiot is hitting people. An idiot is hitting people!"
"Damn it. It's really hard to take off the hat of an idiot." Ye Kong helplessly smiled bitterly. He shook his head and walked towards the toilet.
Smiling at people was an idiot. Hitting people was still an idiot. One was a literary madman and the other was a martial madman. No matter what, they were both madmen.
Being treated as an idiot, Ye Kong was very unhappy. He thought that since he was a madman, then he would be crazy to the end.
Going to the toilet during the day wasn't as peaceful as at night. Along the way, he saw many servants passing by. To those servants, Ye Kong didn't care if he knew them or not. He rolled his eyes at all of them. For those who didn't have good eyesight, he directly picked up the flower pot by the side of the road and threatened them.
Needless to say, it was quite effective. When those servants saw him coming, they all scattered like birds and beasts.
But there were also some who weren't afraid. As a matter of fact, another beautiful servant girl walked over from the opposite side. She secretly raised her eyes, only to discover that Ye Kong was staring at her, and their gazes met.
Whoosh! This servant girl actually didn't dodge! Ye Kong was even more unhappy. In the past, when he was on Hanzheng Street, those passersby didn't dare to provoke him when he glared at them. They just lowered their heads and walked past.
Ye Kong suddenly glared and walked towards the servant girl. Perhaps because his roguish aura was too domineering, the servant girl was scared and quickly ran away in fear.
She then heard Ye Kong cheekily shouting behind her, "Beautiful sister, don't be in such a hurry to leave. How old are you? Do you have a husband? How many sweethearts do you have? Spring is warm and flowers are blooming. Everything is coming back to life. Why don't we discuss the important matters of life together … … "
… …
"Bastard! Idiot! "
A woman's angry scolding came from a window in the backyard of the General's Residence that was embroidered with dragons and phoenixes.
They were both Ye Haoran's women, but in comparison, they were like heaven and earth. This was a woman's room that was exquisitely decorated and luxuriously used. It was many times better than Chen Jiuniang's room in the corner of the front yard.
Even so, some people still felt that it wasn't enough. They wanted to chase Chen Jiuniang out of that dilapidated little yard and didn't even want to give her a place to stay.
The only reason was that Chen Jiuniang was ugly and made her feel uncomfortable.
The Second Madam, who was scolding, was dressed in gaudy silk and satins. Her entire body exuded the aura of a noblewoman. At this moment, she was slamming the table and shouting angrily.
"This ugly woman really doesn't put me in her eyes! And that bastard son of hers! His dog eyes must be blind, he even dares to take liberties with me, this big lass! "
The beautiful servant girl who was scared away by Ye Kong was standing in front of her. This servant girl was Xiao Hong, who went to find information for the Second Madam. She dared to look Ye Kong in the eye because she had the backing of the Second Madam.
"Second Madam, please calm down. It's not worth it to be angry with this kind of person." Xiao Hong was favored by the Second Madam not just because she was beautiful.
"That's right, Mother. Why are you angry with an idiot? Drink a cup of water." The Second Madam's son, Ye Wen, also chimed in.
This Ye Wen was sixteen years old. He was handsome and strong, but one shouldn't think that he was a brute. In fact, he was very cunning. Of course, he had practiced martial arts under the guidance of a master since he was young. He had already achieved some success in the Nancang Arm Boxing. He was one of the best among the Ye Family's descendants.
"Mhm." The Second Madam took the ginseng tea that Ye Wen handed over and took a sip.
After using the ginseng tea to suppress her anger, the Second Madam calmed down a lot. She said lightly, "Since this brat can tease the servant girl, it seems that this idiot really isn't an idiot."
"Yes, he isn't an idiot at all. He speaks fluently." Xiao Hong nodded.
Ye Wen, who was standing at the side, was actually very unhappy. I didn't even get a chance to tease the servant girl in my room. Damn it, I was teased by an idiot like you.
"Mother, we must teach that idiot a lesson this time. Regardless of whether he's an idiot or not, we must make him suffer!" An ominous glint flashed in Ye Wen's eyes.
"Mhm, but I need to think of a better excuse for this matter." The Second Madam pondered and said, "I just called Old Li Si over to ask. His wife wasn't here, so he told me the truth. The truth is that he wanted to extort money, so he was beaten up by that brat. If we use this reason to question him again, and the general asks about it in the future, we won't be able to hold our ground …"
"Why bother reasoning with an idiot? In my opinion, we should just beat him up and make him stop!" Ye Wen crossed his arms and snorted. "It's not like I haven't beaten him up before."
The Second Madam shook her head. "Don't be rash. According to Old Li Si, not only is this idiot not stupid, but he's also cunning and shrewd. His words are watertight. Don't let him find a loophole and cause a lot of trouble."
Ye Wen laughed. "That child also has a way to beat him up! I'll beat him until he can't say anything. Even if it's in front of Father, it's fine. "
The Second Madam's eyes lit up. "Tell me about it."
Ye Wen moved closer to the Second Madam's ear and whispered. The Second Madam beamed with joy and nodded repeatedly.
