Chapter 1704 Big Eyes Comes Back Crying

Big Eyes grinned and said, "I like bright colors. Can I have a butterfly kite?"

Chen Qingsheng angrily cursed Da Yan: "You ungrateful wretch, you beggar and you complain that the food is rotten."

Lotus Leaf smiled and agreed, "Why not! Here you go!"

Upon receiving the butterfly kite, his big eyes and small face lit up with a smile. He had already ignored Chen Qingsheng's disdainful look and harsh words; his eyes were only on the butterfly kite he held in his hands.

Cheng Feng was trying to get rid of Da Yan, who was like a little shadow, extremely stubborn and always trying to stick around him. Cheng Feng would try to get rid of him whenever he had the chance. "Da Yan, you're allowed to rest for half a day. Go out and fly a kite!"

Big Eyes' eyes lit up, and he said what he was thinking: "Your Highness, you are so good to me, granting me leave every few days."

Cheng Feng was half-smiling, half-crying. Big Eyes was too young; besides running errands and repeating what others said, he was useless. Otherwise, he would have sent him out to do chores long ago. "Go ahead. If you do well, I'll give you leave again in the future!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Big Eyes grabbed the kite and ran off towards the city outskirts. If he wanted to have as much fun as possible, he had to leave the city.

In front of his former comrades, Big Eyes was the one who could finally hold his head high. As soon as he left the city, he was surrounded by a group of children, big and small.

Big Eyes distributed the candy he received from Chen Qingsheng's wedding to everyone, one piece for each person. He didn't eat any of the candy himself, saving it to give to his friends someday. At such a young age, he was already serving the heir of the Prince's mansion, drawing envy and jealousy from some.

As the saying goes, even a big dog has to consider its master. With Prince Cheng Feng around, no one dares to do anything to his servants. Although Da Yan doesn't dare to go out and act arrogantly, he feels extremely honored whenever he mentions serving by the prince's side, almost as if he's bringing glory to his ancestors.

So when Da Yan visited his former comrades outside the north city, he not only showed off his kite but also boasted about how good the prince was to him, how he was often given leave to go out and play. These were minor matters; what truly infuriated people was his life in the prince's mansion. He bragged that the mansion was as luxurious as a palace, and most importantly, there was an endless supply of delicious food. If he behaved well, the prince would take him out for lavish meals. Just as he was gushing about this, his blood relatives, his uncles, came knocking.

As dusk fell, Cheng Feng returned to his courtyard with several items he had acquired from Boss Ding on the antique street.

"Honey, take a look at this!"

Shang Xi took a look and said, "These are just two wine vessels! You can find them everywhere on the street. Why did you bring these back? Who uses these to drink wine anymore? Everyone uses glass cups now. Glass cups are the most popular drinking vessels these days."

"Honey, I don't drink this. This is for Boss Qian!"

"That's fine, I reckon he'll like it."

"Wife, take another look at this."

Upon closer inspection, Shang Xi noticed that the elephant was carrying a bronze monkey on its back. "This monkey is so ugly! I doubt anyone would even pick it up if it were thrown on the street!"

"Nonsense, I spent a lot of money!"

"You got this from Boss Ding, didn't you?" Shang Xi said with absolute certainty.

"Yes, Mr. Ding gave me a pretty good discount!"

"What good stuff can you buy from Boss Ding? This stuff is obviously worthless!"

Cheng Feng looked at the little monkey in his hand. "Wife, this thing is a bit ugly, but it has a good meaning!"

"Hahaha, what meaning could this thing possibly have!"

"To be granted a title and appointed prime minister! This is the one I chose for Cang Man! Cang Man is sure to take a liking to it."

"Ha! Cang Man is just a martial artist. Do you think he would want this? I'll be proud if you can give it away."

"He doesn't want it; I'll keep it for myself! But I don't believe he doesn't want it. Someone come here!"

At that moment, a servant entered. "What are your orders, Your Highness?"

"Give these two things to Big Eyes, and have him go to the Qian residence and then to Cang Man's place."

The servant said, "Young Master, Big Eyes went out with you this morning, and he hasn't returned yet!"

"They haven't come back yet?"

The servant shook his head. "Everyone hasn't seen Big Eyes all day. At dinner, everyone was wondering why Big Eyes, who loves food so much, didn't go to eat. Later, everyone discussed it and found out that he went out with the young master this morning."

“He went out with me, but it’s not right that he hasn’t come back yet! He gave him a kite this morning, and I told him to rest for half a day and go out to fly a kite.”

“Your Highness, if it’s only a half-day leave, then the person should be back by now.”

Big Eyes was an unremarkable child. No one would bother looking for him if they didn't see him at home, but he would always appear at mealtimes. He ate enough for two people, and wouldn't put down his chopsticks until his belly was bulging. He treated food like his life, and everyone was used to it.

If Da Zhongzhong does his job properly, Cheng Feng will at least give him a second glance. But if he causes trouble, Cheng Feng is ready to kick him out of the palace. "This kid, I didn't need to bring him back to the palace to do things. I knew he was unreliable. Look, he's disappeared!"

The servant asked Cheng Feng, "Young Master, why don't we send a few people out to search?"

Cheng Feng said decisively, "There's no need. If he doesn't come back, I'll be completely at ease."

Shang Xi disagreed, "Cheng Feng, wouldn't such a young child encounter any danger outside? Do you know where he flew the kite? Let's send a few people to look for him."

“Why would I look for him? I’m the master, and he’s the servant. If he runs away, do I have to send someone to look for him? It’s better if he doesn’t come back. He’s always following me around like a monkey, and I can’t get rid of him. If he doesn’t come back, I can finally have some peace and quiet.”

Shang Xi said, "Why are you saying such angry things? This kid has been running errands for you a lot lately. Why don't you send someone out to look for him?"

"What a headache!" Despite his anger, Cheng Feng still sent someone to find Da Yan.

In the blink of an eye, the man he sent out returned. "Young Master, there's no need to go out and look anymore. Big Eyes is back, and he came back crying."

Shang Xi asked, "Did something happen?"

Cheng Feng said dismissively, "If he doesn't cause trouble, he won't run into trouble!"

"Cheng Feng, let's go see Da Yan and ask what happened. This child is all alone and pitiful!"

"Don't go!"

The servant said, "Your Highness and Your Highness's Princess, Da Yan is already looking this way."

As soon as she finished speaking, the people inside the room heard Big Eyes crying.

Yu Hua came with Da Yan. Yu Hua, who was about to go home, met the crying Da Yan at the door. After finding out what happened, she, who liked to stand up for the weak, came with Da Yan in high spirits.
