3340: Have Good Intentions

Have Good Intentions

"I say, Little Jiu, why have you turned Hao'er into this little beggar?" Guan Xilin entered, sat in a chair, and watched. When he saw Hao'er's puzzled expression, he couldn't help but shake his head secretly.2

While Hao'er was indeed smart, sending a five or six-year-old child out dressed like that, he suspected Hao'er would not be able to endure it for long.

"Uncle," Hao'er called out, then looked towards his mother.

Feng Jiu patted Hao'er's messy hair, smiled, and said to Guan Xilin, "He can only see what he can't see from up high when he's at the bottom. Training should start from a young age. In the years that Hao'er has been with us, both Ze and I have never spoiled him. I believe he will adapt quickly."

She knelt down to look at Hao'er and told her, "Hao'er, your mother wants to see if you can survive on your own when you're by yourself. So, I am giving you ten days."

"In these ten days, you can't use anything from your space. The only thing you can use is the dagger tied to your leg. You have to figure out how to survive when you have nothing. But keep one thing in mind: always have kind thoughts and don't do evil."

"You have to live on your own in Cardinal Point City for the next ten days. You can't tell anyone that you're my son. You have no other choice but to be a little beggar. You can't go home until ten days have passed. Can you do it?" Feng Jiu asked softly at the stunned Hao'er. 

Hao'er thought about what she said for a while and then said, "Mm, Hao'er can do it." He thought ten days would be easy to handle.

One could only say that the little boy obviously hadn't tried living on his own and was oversimplifying things.

"Good, then Mother will have someone take you out." She smiled and patted his head before turning to call out to someone outside, "Leng Hua."

"Master." Leng Hua entered from outside.

"Take Hao'er out of the manor, drop him off somewhere, and then come back!" Feng Jiu gave the order.

"Yes." Leng Hua replied, then came over to take Hao'er in his arms and started to walk away.

At this time, Hao'er, who was being carried, seemed to just come to his senses and couldn't help but ask, "Mother, what should Hao'er do if he misses you?"

Feng Jiu smiled, "Then, just think of me in your heart. When you're back, Mother will prepare some delicious food for you."

"Alright." He smiled, letting Leng Hua carry him away, and quietly left Feng Manor.

Guan Xilin was shocked when he saw the child being sent out of the manor in this way. He then asked, "Little Jiu, are you sure you want to let a child stay outside like this for ten days? Will there be any problems?"

Feng Jiu stepped outside and stood in the courtyard. "I've already arranged for Luo Yu to secretly follow him. With him watching over Hao'er, there won't be any problems in these ten days."

She sighed softly as she spoke. "Big Brother, Hao'er's background is complicated; the dangers he will face in the future will be no less than those he faces with us now. He will eventually have to return to his biological parents. We won't be there to protect him when he returns, so the only thing we can do is teach him how to understand people and adapt to changes. This is the only way for him to survive future dangers."

Guan Xilin's eyes flickered when he heard what she said. He then looked at Feng Jiu with a reluctant face and said, "You do have good intentions."
