Chapter 1980 He really knew
Lu Zhaoling went to Qingyin and Qingbao and quickly cut out a set of children's clothes from paper, and also folded a pair of shoes.
Fortunately, these two maids were really skillful.
Having spent a long time with Lu Zhaoling, they would try to learn as much as possible what they might need to do.
After all, their talent for learning talismans is only so-so. Drawing peace talismans and warmth talismans is already quite difficult for them, but they are still good at handicrafts.
When the two maids heard that they needed to make a set of clothes and shoes for a four-year-old child, they worked together very quickly.
"Your Highness, everything is ready."
Aoki also brought over a brazier.
Xiao Cai stood in the pavilion watching them.
Upon first seeing these people, his instinct was to hide behind Madam Sheng.
Is this a prince's residence?
Sister Lu has become a princess.
Didn't he already know?
However, when Xiao Cai actually saw it with his own eyes, he was both shocked and apprehensive.
Even standing here, he felt he would dirty the grounds of the Prince's mansion.
He didn't know what Lu Zhaoling was going to do.
At this moment, Madam Sheng whispered to him, "Hey, kid, guess what the master is going to do? If you guess right, I'll buy you two more candied hawthorns later."
Xiao Cai looked up at her, then at the group of people who had set up braziers in the open space outside the pavilion, and he was bewildered.
Seeing that he hadn't expected this at all, Madam Sheng sighed.
The reason she brought this brat to the capital was because, although her cultivation level was now very high, she wasn't practicing properly, but rather cultivating step by step.
She only achieved such a high level of cultivation because she swallowed a second-class great demon.
Later, although she learned a lot from the ghost soldiers, it was all about fighting.
There are still many things she doesn't know how to do or can't do.
For example, give Xiao Cai a set of clothes and shoes.
She could buy ready-made clothes and funeral garments, and then burn them, but they wouldn't reach her or Xiao Cai's hands after being burned.
I heard that those unclaimed items that were burned went to some place in the underworld. She'll have to find the ghost official in charge of this matter again, which is too much trouble.
It's more convenient to find a master.
"Just wait, there will be a surprise," she said.
Lu Zhaoling threw the clothes and shoes made by Qingyin and Qingbao into the brazier, then took out a golden pen, quickly drew a talisman, and threw the talisman into the brazier as well.
She looked at Xiao Cai.
"Little talent."
"Huh?" Xiao Cai opened his mouth nervously.
"Collect the laundry."
what?
Before Xiao Cai could react, a brand new set of clothes and a pair of cotton shoes had fallen out of thin air in front of him.
He instinctively reached out and caught it.
The clothes fell into his hands.
The fabric is soft.
Although it's very plain, without any patterns, it's new, soft, thick, and warm.
Xiao Cai hasn't touched a piece of cloth with any warmth for many, many years.
He froze.
"You can change your clothes yourself, right? I know you can. You can change here, we'll come back later."
As soon as Lu Zhaoling finished speaking, Qingyu reached out and unfolded a cloak, draping it over the railing on one side of the pavilion.
Madam Sheng chuckled, patted Xiao Cai on the shoulder, and said, "Hurry up and change."
She slipped out too.
They all stepped back a little.
Lu Zhaoling quickly walked back to the front hall and told her master and the others about it.
"You mean, a kid I knew from the countryside?"
"Correct."
"Then ask him carefully, maybe he knows something about the Lu family." Yin Changxing sighed and said, "It's also a kind of fate between that child and you. After you've asked him, have your eldest brother send him to be reincarnated."
Lu Zhaoling nodded, "That's what I think too."
Of course, she wouldn't want to keep Xiao Cai by her side and raise him in Huaiyuan just because she knows him.
Xiao Cai is just a child. He has already suffered a lot in his life. He should be reborn into a better family and have a happier life in the next life.
“We won’t go over there, so he won’t be scared if he sees too many strangers,” Yin Changxing said.
"Okay, Master, I'll go now."
Lu Zhaoling came over to give some instructions and then quickly went to the pavilion.
Qingyin and Qingbao were standing on tiptoe, peeking over their shoulders.
"What are you doing?" Lu Zhaoling asked.
"Your Highness, you said it's a child who is only four or five years old. Can he change his own clothes?"
Qingbao felt sorry for Xiao Cai.
She died when she was four or five years old.
Although they didn't know anything about Xiao Cai's past, hadn't seen him, and didn't know what he looked like now, they still needed the Princess to burn him a set of clothes immediately, which meant he certainly didn't even have a decent set of clothes.
In ordinary families, if a child dies unexpectedly, they will dress him in nicer clothes before burying him.
Therefore, the two maids guessed that the child must have had a miserable life and a miserable death.
They are both soft-hearted girls, and they have already felt compassion for each other.
“He can dress up. Xiao Cai is a very capable child.” Lu Zhaoling said to them, “Alright, you all go about your business. You don’t need to crowd around here. He’ll be scared later.”
"Your Highness, does he want to eat?" Qingbao asked again.
Lu Zhaoling: "...Then go and prepare some food for the children."
"Yes!"
Qingbao and Qingyin quickly turned around and ran towards the kitchen.
Aoki said, "Your Highness, I'll be waiting over there."
"it is good."
They retreated to a distance.
Lu Zhaoling walked towards the pavilion.
"Xiao Cai, are you dressed?"
"I'm dressed, I'm dressed..."
Xiao Cai's voice was choked with sobs.
Lu Zhaoling pulled off her cloak and saw Xiao Cai wearing new clothes and shoes.
It really looks like...
I feel a bit more energetic.
Xiao Cai looked up at her, and Lu Zhaoling noticed that his eyes were full of tears as he tried to hold back his sobs.
"Don't kowtow anymore," she quickly added.
Madam Sheng also came in. Seeing Xiao Cai like this, she reached out and patted his head.
"See? I told you there was a surprise in store."
“My parents never prepared clothes for me; all my clothes were picked up from the ground,” Xiao Cai said. “When I was little, I would just wear my father’s old, tattered clothes and tie them up.”
Madam Sheng gasped.
She then looked at Lu Zhaoling, "However, it doesn't seem strange, Master. I went to your hometown and found that there are still many poor people in your village, and some families are really, really poor."
Despite poverty, many children were still born. Many children grew up to be several years old without ever wearing new clothes. They were simply wrapped in the tattered clothes of adults, or they would take turns wearing two different pieces of clothing.
It's perfectly normal for someone like Xiao Cai, who isn't cared for by his parents, to not have any clothes.
Lu Zhaoling nodded.
"The countryside is indeed very poor."
“But the Lu family seems to be doing quite well,” Sheng San Niangzi added.
She said to Xiao Cai, "Now you can speak. What did Zong Bie tell you to remember?"
Xiao Cai quickly said, "That ghost uncle chased after your grandfather and his men to Nanzhao. He didn't have time, but he happened to see me. He gave me an incense stick and said some things to me, telling me to remember them and tell them if anyone from the capital came looking for me."
Xiao Cai looked at Lu Zhaoling and asked, "But, Sister Lu, you're a human, how can you see me? Is the person Uncle Ghost was talking about you?"
"it's me."
Lu Zhaoling was somewhat surprised to hear that the Lu family had gone to Nanzhao.
