The next day, Hou Qi slowly opened his eyes. After sitting up, his head still hurt. Touching his head, Hou Qi murmured, "What happened last night? Why did I faint?"
He only remembered that he had to close the windows last night because of the strong wind. As a result, a white light flashed past him and he knew nothing. Go to the bedroom, pick up the mirror and look at it. The thin face is slightly pale, but there are no wounds. As if thinking of something, Hou Qi looked up at his watch. It was already past 10 o'clock.
"Oops, today is my birthday, and it's also the day when the family divides their territories. What a tragedy." Without even bothering to wash up, Hou Qi immediately ran towards the front yard hall.
Along the way, I heard the servants talking.
"Isn't this that bastard young master? Running so fast to die?"
"Today is the day to divide the territory for him, as well as the eldest lady's. Did you hear?"
"Yes, the eldest lady has been assigned several mines with rich production, more than Master Cai had at the time!"
"What about the one that just passed by?"
"What did you say?"
Hou Qi's heart sank as he listened to the servant's words. When Hou Qi arrived in the hall, the housekeeper was the only one left in the hall, and the others had already left. Hou Qi knew this was the result.
The housekeeper's surname is Li, and he is an old man who follows Hou Hengfei. When Hou Qi met the housekeeper, he quickly saluted and said, "Grandpa Li, I'm sorry I'm late."
Butler Li quickly stood up and said, "Master Qi, please kill me. I am planning to send you this land deed." As he said this, he handed a chip-like object in his hand to Hou Qi. After Hou Qi took it over, he heard Butler Li say, "This territory was won for you by the eldest young lady. Originally, the eldest young master wanted Master Qi to go out and establish his own business, but after the young lady asked the master, he got this territory." Territory, I hope Master Qi will not forget the friendship with the young lady." The eldest young master is Hou Qi's cheap dad - Hou Chuanjiang. The young lady is Hou Qingfang, the daughter of Wang Wenxiu, who is the same age as Hou Qi.
Hou Qi hurriedly said, "I remember, thank you Grandpa Li!"
Butler Li seemed to be very satisfied with Hou Qi Qiangong and said, "Young Master Qi is already 18 years old and will take the college entrance examination this year. What the eldest young master means is that since he has his own territory, Young Master Qi should manage it well. After the college entrance examination, he will Go to your own territory!" After saying that, Hou Qi walked out without waiting for anything else.
Hou Qi took the chip of the land deed and thought about the butler's words, thinking, "I didn't expect that it was Hou Qingfang who interceded for him." If Hou Qi has a good impression of anyone in the Hou family, it is Hou Qingfang. Before the age of 12, Hou Qingfang often went to his small courtyard. You must know that except for Butler Li who occasionally goes to see if he is still alive, almost no one goes to the small courtyard for fear of being resented by the eldest lady. Because Hou Qi was a thorn in the eldest lady's heart. The wound healed over time, but as long as the thorn was still there, it would hurt whenever she touched it.
Especially after the second lady Chu Jiang entered the Hou family, the eldest lady Wang Wenxiu's temper became even worse. But Hou Qingfang is an exception. I still remember when Hou Qi, who was 6 years old, came back from school and just wanted to eat in the cafeteria. He heard a sweet-looking little girl enter his yard. Hou Qi was surprised that ordinary people would not come to his place. Just as he was about to speak, the little girl asked, "Who are you and why do you live here?"
Hou Qi saw a little girl alone and said, "This is my home, who are you? Why did you come here?" The little girl looked at Hou Qi in front of him and said, "I am Hou Qingfang, and you?" Of course Hou Qi He knew who Hou Qingfang was, she was his sister, but she was the apple of her eye. It was said that even the head of the family, Hou Hengfei, liked this granddaughter very much. As for me, I have never even seen the face of the head of the family. There is no Spring Festival here, but there is a big festival like "Victory Day". Every time during the festival, no one has ever called me.
When Hou Qi thought of this, he just said, "I'm Hou Qi. Hello!" After that, he walked out. He had to go to dinner, but he was late and there was no leftover food.
When Hou Qingfang saw Hou Qi was about to leave while talking to her, she finally found a playmate of similar age to her, but she couldn't let him go like that, so she opened her hands, blocked Hou Qi's path, and said, "What are you doing? No way." Let's go." When Hou Qi saw that he couldn't leave, he said, "I have to go to the cafeteria to eat. If it's late, there won't be any. Get out of the way."
Hou Qingfang saw that Hou Qi was not afraid of him at all, which was different from his usual school classmates. She was the bully in the school, so she said, "You have to play with me, otherwise, I will tell my grandpa that you bully me." She looked cute and sassy after saying this. When Hou Qi heard this, he thought that if Hou Qingfang really complained, what would the Hou family do to him? At least Wang Wenxiu will not let herself go. So he said, "I really want to eat. How about I play with you after eating and tell you stories?" Hou Qi thought that children should be easy to coax, so it was important to go to eat first anyway.
When he heard that there were stories to listen to, Hou Qingfang said, "Really, you will play with me after dinner and tell me stories?"
Hou Qi immediately said, "Of course it's true, I never lie." Hou Qingfang took out a small box from her bag and handed it to Hou Qi and said, "Here you eat, tell me a story after eating." Hou Qi took it. When I came over, I saw that it was full of food, including dried meat, preserved fruits, snacks, etc. It smelled so good that Hou Qi drooled.
Hou Qingfang said, "It contains dried deer meat, preserved apricots, and snacks. It's enough for you! Eat quickly, and tell me a story after you finish."
"Okay," Hou Qi said immediately. He had never heard of these things, let alone eaten them. He immediately picked it up and ate it. After eating, he felt hot all over his body. Hou Qi immediately used the exercises taught in the school to guide the heat flow to wash away the skin to train the skin. Within a short period of time, my skin felt tight and red. At this moment, Hou Qingfang's dissatisfied voice came. "Why are you still practicing after you finish eating? Tell me a story quickly."
Hou Qi could only stop practicing and said, "What kind of story do you want to hear?" Hou Qingfang thought for a moment and said, "I want to hear a story about a princess."
Hou Qi had no choice but to think about it and said, "Then I will tell a story about the seven dwarfs and Snow White." Then Hou Qi transformed into a porter and told Hou Qingfang the famous story of Snow White in her previous life. Hou Qingfang listened with fascination, and soon Hou Qi finished speaking.
Seeing that Hou Qingfang was still immersed in the fantasy of the prince and princess, Hou Qi saw that it was time to go to school in the afternoon. So he said, "I'm going to school. Let's stop here today." Hou Qingfang came back to her senses and said, "I'm going to school too, let's go together! You tell me stories when we get to school."
Hou Qi said, "I go to a public school, which is not the same school as you."
"Ah, that's it. Okay, then I'll come find you after school." Hou Qingfang said persistently.
Hou Qi's face twitched slightly and he said, "Let's talk about it, but you'd better not tell others about the story I told you, otherwise you will never hear the story I tell you again."
Hou Qingfang agreed happily, "Okay, this is a secret between the two of us, and you are not allowed to tell it!" After saying that, he jumped away. Hou Qi looked at the food box in his hand and shouted, "You forgot something. Here’s your food box.”
"Give it to you!" the voice came from far away.
From then on, Hou Qingfang came to play with Hou Qi whenever she had time, and pestered Hou Qi to tell her stories. There are countless stories about the essence of China’s five thousand years of culture. Hou Qi is also looking forward to having a playmate. Although he is already over 30 years old mentally, he is still a child physically. Besides, he can know a lot about what happened in the Hou family from Hou Qingfang.
Gradually, as Hou Qingfang grew older, he came to know that Hou Qi was his brother. He also knew that his mother hated Hou Qi so much that she gradually stopped coming. Especially after I entered middle school, my cultivation became increasingly intensive. Hou Qingfang never came to her courtyard again. Hou Qi thought she had forgotten him long ago. Unexpectedly, she actually spoke for herself in the distribution of family territory this time.
Although Hou Qi gave up hope, when he returned to his room, he still took out the chip and put it into his personal terminal to see where his territory was! After opening it, it turned out that the territory assigned to me was more than 200 miles east of Houcheng, close to the sea. It is only 5 miles in radius, half of it is a swamp near the sea, and the other half is land that can be cultivated, but it is relatively barren and can only grow some brown rice.
Ordinarily, Hou Qi should be happy to be next to the sea, but he overthinks it. This is not the earth in his previous life. There are intelligent creatures living in the sea of Mu Yunxing. They are huge and are called the "sea beast clan". They are powerful, but they rarely go ashore, but they will not let people access the resources in the sea. The Federation tried to conquer them through several wars, but they all ended in failure. They had to sign a contract, "The sea beast family will not go ashore, but Humans are also not allowed to go into the sea to hunt for resources. Otherwise, they will be hunted down."
The king of the sea beast clan has the highest combat power that is not weaker than that of humans, so this can only be said. The ocean is a restricted area for humans on Muyun Star. From this point of view, the territory Hou Qi obtained was only a few hectares of land. No minerals, herbs, etc.
"It seems that they want me to starve to death and not have any resources to practice?" Hou Qi thought to himself. Although he had no hope, Hou Qi was still depressed after knowing the result. "Am I going to be like this for the rest of my life?" Coming to this world of high martial arts, Hou Qi also wanted to stand at the top and see it, and he also wanted to enjoy his grudges. I also want to see all the races in the universe. It's a pity that he was severely slapped in the face by reality. "I am probably the most miserable time traveler! I will definitely become a farmer. I will farm all my life." After saying this, his head hurt, and Hou Qi fainted again. If anyone saw it, they would find that there was a bright white light on Hou Qi's forehead.
