C4 Relying on Power to Oppress Others
"Xiao, your injury is just right. Why don't you rest more? How can you move around?" Meng Xiyun complained. She knew that her son had never stopped cultivating since his martial arts was crippled two years ago. However, his cultivation was always ineffective. However, her son did not want to face reality. As a mother, her heart ached and she felt helpless.
"Mother, I'm fine now. It's good for my body to get up and exercise." Ling Xiao stopped moving.
Meng Xiyun walked to Ling Xiao and took out her handkerchief to wipe his face.
Ling Xiao looked at the dignified and pretty face that was inches away from him. The lines of fish that could not be hidden from the corners of her eyes were all visible. Her hair had already grown a few strands of white hair. A sad feeling suddenly rose in his heart.
"Mother, I made you worry." Ling Xiao remembered his mother's care for him and could not help but blurt out.
"Silly child, I am your mother." Meng Xiyun was very pleased. She sighed in her heart. Her son's injury this time was not necessarily a bad thing. He had grown up now and was sensible.
"Hey, quickly come over and get your monthly salary." A disgusted voice came from outside the door.
At the door were two servants dressed like servants. They were both around twenty years old. One had a face full of Freckles and the other had an ugly nose. Both of their eyes were constantly darting around, making people feel like thieves. One look was enough to make people feel disgusted.
One of them was called Freckles, and the other was called Dog Noses. They were the servants beside Ling Rui.
The one who spoke just now was precisely the Freckle. He held a small bag in his hand and kept spinning it. He looked at Ling Xiao and his mother with disdain.
The Ling family's finances were controlled by the Fifth Elder, and as the direct descendant of the Ling family, Ling Zhan's family should have been given a monthly salary by the butler. But now, it was the two servants by Fifth Elder's grandson's side. It could be seen that Ling Zhan's family was not liked by the Ling Family.
"I'm coming to get it now." Meng Xiyun hurriedly walked towards the two of them.
Meng Xiyun did not get close, but the Freckle casually threw the money bag over.
This Freckle actually wanted to make Meng Xiyun lose face. Because the strength he threw the money pouch was not strong enough, he only threw it one meter in front of Meng Xiyun. It looked like the money pouch was about to fall to the ground.
Meng Xiyun's face showed a hint of displeasure and she quickened her steps. She could still barely hold the money pouch in her hand.
The Freckle and Dog Nose were both somewhat stunned. They did not expect that this woman could still hold the money pouch.
Meng Xiyun smiled and said, "Thank you two for making a trip." Then, she weighed the money pouch and quickly opened it to take a look. Then, she said to the two of them, "Isn't our family's monthly salary thirty gold coins per month? Why is it only ten gold coins?
"Madam, do you think that the two of us have stolen your gold coins? This was personally issued by the financial Deacon. Why don't you go and ask him yourself?" The Dog Nose raised its head and said with a strange tone through its nostrils. His attitude really did not seem like a servant, but rather like a high and mighty noble.
The financial Deacon that Dog Nose spoke of was the son of Fifth Elder, and also Ling Jian's father, Ling Chong. Everyone in the Ling family knew that Ling Chong and Ling Zhan had been sworn enemies since young. The reason why Dog Nose asked Meng Xiyun to look for Ling Chong was clearly to use Ling Chong to suppress Meng Xiyun.
"Forget it. You guys can leave now." Meng Xiyun said angrily. She held the ten gold coins in her hand and was unhappy. She still wanted to buy some tonics for her son to replenish his health this month. Now, her monthly salary was 20 gold coins less. This life was really not easy, because she still had to leave some for her husband, Ling Zhan, to buy wine and drink.
The medicinal Freckles and medicinal Dog Noses were slightly pleased with themselves, and were just about to turn around and leave.
"Wait!" At this time, Ling Xiao walked over and shouted.
"May I know what orders you have?" Freckle turned around and looked at Ling Xiao with contempt. He actually did not address Young Master Ling Xiao but called him "you." It could be seen that these servants were the same as their master and wanted to ridicule Ling Zhan's family.
"Take out 20 gold coins, or else you won't be able to leave this place." Ling Xiao said coldly. He was a dignified Young Master, but he was being ridiculed by two servants. It seemed like he didn't have great strength in this continent, but he was even more lowly than the lowly servants.
"Didn't the Dog Nose just say that? If you want those 20 gold coins, you can ask for them from the financial Deacon or the Young Master Rui. " I just don't know if you dare to ask for it. " The Freckle said with a playful expression.
A few days ago, Ling Xiao was beaten half to death. It was completely because Ling Rui insulted his parents that Ling Xiao fought with Ling Rui to the death. At that time, the Freckle and the Dog Nose were the audience. The two of them acted arrogantly because they were Ling Rui's servants. They looked down on Ling Xiao even more.
"Looks like you two don't know how to repent." Ling Xiao said with a gloomy face.
Freckle and Dog Nose showed no fear. Although they were servants, they were still Fourth Grade Martial Disciples. They were facing the disabled Ling Xiao. He could be considered an expert. How could they be afraid of Ling Xiao?
"Forget it. Xiao, let them be." Meng Xiyun pulled Ling Xiao's hand. She was afraid that her son would be impulsive. If he got hurt again, she did not want to see this happen.
"Mom, don't worry. Just watch me teach these two servants a lesson and avenge you." Ling Xiao freed himself from Meng Xiyun's hand and slowly walked towards the Freckle and Dog Nose.
"What do you want?" The Freckle took a step back. Although they could look down on Ling Zhan's family, they were not qualified to offend them. They didn't dare to show any disrespect to Ling Xiao. The Ling family's rules were strict. If any servant dared to disrespect the Ling family, they would be kicked out of the house. If it was serious, they would be killed.
"I'll count to three. Give me twenty gold coins and get lost." Ling Xiao shouted.
"I told you that we don't have any gold coins. If you have the ability, go get the Head Steward." The Dog Nose said.
"Three."
"Let's go. Ignore him." The Freckle tugged at the Dog Nose and said.
"Two."
The two of them ignored Ling Xiao and turned around to leave. Although they didn't dare to offend their superiors, with their skills, Ling Xiao couldn't stop them.
"Forget it. Xiao, let's go back." Meng Xiyun called out.
"One. I've already counted to three. You guys want to die!!" Ling Xiao shouted and suddenly moved his feet, catching up to Freckle and Dog Nose in an instant.
Both of them were Fourth Grade Martial Disciples. Ling Xiao attacked from behind. The two of them immediately noticed and immediately separated.
"Flowing Water Cloud!" Ling Xiao used the first style of the Cloud Pushing Palm and slapped it towards the Freckle.
The Freckle was shocked. He did not expect Ling Xiao to attack so quickly. He wanted to dodge quickly.
Unfortunately, Ling Xiao was extremely fast while stepping on the Cloud Trace Phantom, so how could the Freckle dodge so easily?
Ling Xiao's palm heavily hit the bridge of the Freckle's nose.
