Chapter 97 You are Zhou Jiong
"Jong, Ming Ye, the bright sun shines brightly in Qishu. What a good name, I really know how to name it!" He Ran was overjoyed that she could come up with such a good name. Regardless of whether the children understood it or not, she was satisfied. He Ran stood in front of the child. If a child of this age was raised well, he could already reach He Ran's shoulders. But this child was still very short and looked younger than his actual age. He Ran could see the top of his hair. The white objects stuck on his hair must be lice eggs. When He Ran saw it for the first time in his previous life, I felt unwell all over, but later I saw more and didn't feel anything at all. She asked Xiaoli to take the child to bathe and change clothes. The child had not had a bath for an unknown amount of time. Kurotsuchi gave him a bath himself, changing the water twice. While taking a bath, I discovered that the ten-year-old child had calluses on his hands and feet, as well as old scars on his hands from being burned when delivering hot water to guests. There was a large scar on his arm. There was one time when he secretly ate pastries he bought for a guest, but his mother burned them with red-hot tongs. From then on, he never dared to eat secretly again. He Ran called the pedicure master over, carefully removed the calluses on the child's hands and feet bit by bit, applied ointment with animal fat, wrapped the hands and feet with fine cotton cloth, took them apart after an hour, and washed them with water. , and apply another balm. It's just that the scar has been there for a long time and is difficult to remove. However, the child is still young and as he grows older, the scar will become lighter and lighter. He Ran was worried that the lice medicine that cost ten cents a bottle was unsafe, so she asked the doctor in the drug store to prescribe the medicine. He washed the child's hair with medicinal soup, then wrapped it with a large piece of cotton cloth, and waited for half an hour. Rinse with clean water and use a fine-toothed comb to comb through the knotted hair inch by inch to remove any remaining insect eggs. It's just that the child's hair is withered and yellow. This is malnutrition and needs to be nursed back to health slowly.
Three days later, the child stood in front of He Ran again. His hair was neatly combed, and he did not have a hairpin for his young age. He tied his hair up with a jade button. There were still traces of windchill on his face, but it could be seen that Yes, the skin's foundation is very good. His fingernails were trimmed into a nice shape, and the silk skirt on his body was cut to fit. There was a jade button hanging from his waist, which had the same pattern as the one used to tie his hair. The shoes on my feet look ordinary, but those who know the goods will recognize at a glance that these shoes are from Guangfusheng in the capital, a newly opened branch of Shunde Prefecture this year, and they are expensive. After three days of precipitation, the child still seemed to be in a dream. "My surname is Zhou?" The child remembered, and his name was Zhou Jiong from now on. "Yes, your name is Zhou Jiong. Isn't this a good name?" He Ran asked with a smile. Zhou Jiong's heart was pounding. He remembered what Chaofeng said to him at the pawnshop, and he was a little unsure: "Am I really the son of King Zhao?" "No, of course you are not!" He Ran opened the folding fan and shook it, with a profound look on his face, "Did you see those bad old men I kicked out? The son of Prince Zhao should be that age, no, older than them Younger, they are overacting. You are the grandson of King Zhao." With that said, He Ran stood up, walked to Zhou Jiong, and bowed to the ground: "He Ran meets the emperor's grandson." Grandson? Is he the emperor's grandson?
Zhou Jiong was stunned for a moment, with a confused look on his face. After a while, he asked quietly: "My dad, he really doesn't mind that I am." He didn't know what to say. He grew up in Huajieliuxiang, and he knew from an early age that there were two worlds inside and outside the street. He knew who his mother was, and he also knew that a person of his origin would be ridiculed by the world. He Ran felt pity in her heart. She sighed and stroked his head: "Since you became Zhou Jiong, everything in the past has just been a training for you. Your grandfather and father have passed away, your mother has remarried, and you He is the bloodline of Taizu, a true dragon son and phoenix grandson." He Ran looked at Xiaoli: "The news that Queen Zhao's descendants have been found has spread throughout the world!" "Yes!" Xiaoli turned around and went out. He Ran lowered her head and saw Zhou Jiong looking up at her: "Where is my father? Are you from my father's family?" He Ran smiled: "I have a close relationship with your great-grandfather, and I can't bear to see his descendants living in poverty. I gave you your name. I will raise you, take care of you, and train you. You can call me aunt, too." You can call me sister, or by my first name." Zhou Jiong's heart that had been hanging around for three days finally settled at this moment: "Sister, I like to call you sister. You are the most beautiful sister I have ever seen." "Little clever guy, I will ask a few more masters to teach you." He Ran said. "Are you going to teach me how to read?" Zhou Jiong had seen the students in the school. They were wearing blue cloth robes, carrying book boxes on their backs, and looking at him sideways.
"Not just reading, but also teaching you how to ride a horse, shoot an arrow, and be a good person." He Ran said lightly. Zhou Jiong's eyes brightened and then dimmed again. Apart from not having to worry about eating and drinking, he didn't seem to be much better than before. The next day, He Ran met Xiaokui. Xiaokui quietly leaned into He Ran's ear and asked in a low voice: "Girl, do you want to support this child?" He Ran nodded: "Needless to say about the one in the palace, it's just that Zhou Yi is indecisive. He ignores the suffering of the people. For this reason alone, he is not worthy of sitting in that chair. I am too lazy to see the others with my own eyes. Over the years, you Should know better than me." Xiaokui sighed: "Old King Gui died in the wind on horseback. He was only in his thirties at the time. The current King Gui is his third son, who assassinated his two elder brothers to take the throne. I adopted a girl whose parents and family members are all As a result, the King of Gui died because of this. It is said that the King of Gui was cruel. There are rumors that he cannibalize human flesh. I don’t know whether it is true or not. As for the King of Qi who succeeded King Zhao, he was a business-minded person, both in the court and among the people. His reputation is good.” He Ran knew that King Qi had a good reputation, otherwise no one would have supported him to inherit the throne. But he was Zhou Laoer's son and Zhou Wen's grandson, so He Ran instinctively disliked him. "But that child. He is still so young. What will happen to him in the future? And will his biological mother come to see him?" Xiaokui was a little worried. She thought of Mrs. Di back then. When her son was young, Mrs. Di was unable to protect him. Even if he lost him, she did not dare to look for him. She could only hide under the wings of her enemies and eke out a living. After her son came back as an adult, she relied on his power to amass money to support her younger son in raising tigers. She even thought her son was cruel because he killed his father's enemy with his own hands. At that time, what Mrs. Di often said was: My son has a pure nature, but it was He Jinghong who taught me bad things. He Ran knew what Xiaokui was thinking from her concerned eyes. "Back then, I only thought about helping Xiaochizi conquer the world so that I could live freely, so except for fighting, I didn't pay attention to anything else. I didn't notice that Di was jealous, Zhou Chi was more affectionate to me than she was, and I didn't notice that Min Lan hated me for stealing her position as queen. Haha, I raised Zhou Chi as my son, but she was actually worried that I would become the queen of Nao Shizi. Of these two idiots, one is worried about me becoming the queen mother, and the other is worried about me becoming the queen. Min Lan was worthy of being the wife Di chose for Zhou Chi. Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were equally stupid. " (End of this chapter)
