Chapter 325: A Broken Box
The head of the Su family:...
Annoying!
It’s so irritating!
I really don't know what's wrong with Yan Li's brain. She is so good at making people angry at such a young age!
"Grandpa, save me. I don't want to stay in bed for half a year." Gu Xin walked up to the head of the Gu family with pleading eyes.
"Xin'er, before you try to steal other people's things, you should know that you have to bear all the consequences yourself." The head of the Gu family looked at Gu Xin with a cold face.
"Why? Why? I am the blood of the Gu family, why do you only have eyes for Yan Li?" Upon hearing this, Gu Xin screamed madly.
"Li'er wouldn't be like you, who helped the Su family to plot against the Gu family before she even got married, and after she got married, she would even empty the Gu family out for the sake of the Su family." There was no warmth in Gu Shan's tone.
Although Gu Xin is a substitute, the Gu family has been very kind to her. Over the years, the Gu family has been raising an ungrateful person.
"Brother Gu Shan, how can you blame me for this? After all, I have married into the Su family. Although the Gu family is my roots, the Su family is where I want to stay in the future." Gu Xin still felt that she did nothing wrong.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Gu Xin speechlessly.
I guess no force can tolerate Gu Xin's behavior.
"Yan Li, I won't bother with you for hurting me, as long as you give me the spiritual spring water." Gu Xin looked at Yan Li.
The eyes of the head of the Su family lit up when he heard this.
Now that Gu Xin was seriously injured, she certainly couldn't use the spiritual spring water. After Gu Xin succeeded, she would coax it over to give to Su Hong to take.
"I hurt you? Is there anything wrong with your head? You were injured by the protective barrier of the display table. If you want compensation, go to City Lord Sun." Yan Li looked at Gu Xin with mockery in her eyes.
City Lord Sun: ...
What does this have to do with this city lord?
It is true that misfortune comes from the sky when one is at home.
Seeing that she couldn't gain any advantage over Yan Li, Gu Xin turned around angrily and went back to her seat.
Seeing this, everyone in the Su family returned to their seats.
When everyone at the banquet saw Gu Xin and the others leave, their eyes fell on the spiritual spring water in front of Yan Li and they became restless again.
Yan Li continued to eat her candied haws and meat buns in a very bored manner.
"Li'er, do you have this spiritual spring water?" Patriarch Gu looked at Yan Li.
"Grandpa wants it?" Yan Li raised her head and looked at the head of the Gu family.
"Grandpa doesn't need it. It's just that the grandson of grandpa's old friend is born a loser. So if Lier wants to exchange him, it's better to sell him to my old friend." The head of the Gu family said with a smile.
"Grandpa, here, we have enough spiritual spring water." Yan Li casually filled a large bottle from the Purple Spiritual Realm and gave it to the head of the Gu family.
"Lier, this, this is..." Patriarch Gu stuttered as he looked at the large bottle of spiritual spring water in his hand.
"These were all given to me by my master." Yan Li replied.
The Purple Spirit Heaven Realm was indeed left to him by his master before he left.
"Li'er, everything has been given away, what about you?" Patriarch Gu looked at Yan Li with some entanglement.
This child is too generous. Shouldn’t something as rare as the spiritual spring water be kept hidden?
She actually sent out bottle after bottle.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I still have a lot. I can't use it all. But you can't give this spiritual spring water to an ungrateful person like Gu Xin." Yan Li specifically ordered.
"Don't worry, Li'er. How could grandpa give such a good thing as the spiritual spring water to that ungrateful person? She doesn't deserve it." The head of the Gu family reached out and touched Yan Li's little head lovingly.
Yan Li smiled when she heard that.
The head of the Gu family put away the precious spiritual spring water in his hand.
At this moment, Yan Li discovered a pair of small hands appeared next to her table.
The target of these little hands was the candied haws on Yan Li's table.
Yan Li looked in the direction of the little hand and saw a little girl of three or four years old looking at her with horror on her face.
"Fei'er, why are you here?" At this time, a woman ran over in panic and hugged the little girl.
"Mom, candied haws, candied haws." The little girl pointed at the candied haws on Yan Li's table and said.
"Be good, Fei'er. After the meeting is over, mother will take you to buy it." The woman comforted her.
"Okay." The little girl nodded obediently, but her eyes were still reluctant to leave the candied haws on Yan Li's table.
"Ms. Yan, I'm really sorry. Fei'er is ignorant and disturbed you." The woman looked at Yan Li apologetically.
"It's okay, Fei'er, here you go." Yan Li picked up a string of candied haws and handed it to Mu Fei.
"Thank you, sister." Mu Fei took it, licked a piece of the candied haws, and then thanked her vaguely.
"Thank you, Miss Yan." The woman also thanked Yan Li.
"You're welcome." Yan Li smiled and shook her head. It was just a string of candied haws. She wouldn't bother with her.
"Madam, why are you here?" At this time, the head of the Mu family came over.
"Fei'er fell in love with Miss Yan's candied haws and came here by herself." Mrs. Mu said, pointing at her daughter in her arms.
Upon hearing this, the head of the Mu family panicked and quickly apologized to Yan Li.
"It's just a string of candied haws. There's no need to panic." Yan Li was speechless upon seeing this.
Upon hearing this, the Mu family head and his wife thanked Mu Fei repeatedly and took her back to their seats.
Yan Li smiled slightly when she saw the direction they were leaving.
"Miss Yan, I wonder what kind of treasure you would like to exchange for this spiritual spring water?" An old man walked up to Yan Li, his eyes full of hope as he looked at the spiritual spring water.
"It depends on what treasures you can come up with." Yan Li looked at the old man.
"Well, Miss Yan, these are all the treasures I have on me. Take a look and see if there is anything that you like." The old man said as he poured out a pile of treasures.
Yan Li looked towards his pile of treasures.
Finally, her attention was drawn to a broken box.
When Yan Li picked up the broken box, she could actually feel the broken box calling her.
Yan Li felt that this broken box was highly compatible with her soul.
"That's it. The spiritual spring water is for you." Yan Li picked up the spiritual spring water and handed it to the old man.
"Is it this?" The old man looked at the broken box in Yan Li's hand in disbelief.
"That's it." Yan Li shook her head affirmatively.
"Miss Yan, to tell you the truth, this broken box is not a treasure. It's because my grandson can't practice and is obsessed with adventure and treasure hunting. This broken box was picked up by him when I took him to the back mountain to hunt for treasure in order to fulfill his wish." The old man looked at Yan Li with a conflicted look on his face.
Yan Li: ...
It seems that although his grandson cannot practice cultivation, he is a genius in treasure hunting.
"I just like this broken box, so I'll take it." Yan Li replied.
"Miss Yan, I won't take advantage of you. Since you like that broken box, just keep it. You can also take these three treasures." The old man said as he picked up the three treasures and stuffed them into Yan Li's arms. Then he left with the spiritual spring water, eyes full of excitement.
When everyone saw that the spiritual spring water had been replaced again, they all wailed in their hearts.
Such a treasure, they missed it again!
