Chapter 503: Little Bodhisattva
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Gu Qingluan wasnât naive or sheltered. She knew that most people in the world were the same. These individuals werenât necessarily bad, but her good intentions had caused the current situation, which would have upset anyone in her position.
She wasnât a saint and had her share of feelings, but she didnât bear any grudges either.
She turned to Feng Yuanxi and waved her hand, saying, âYuanxi, come here.â
Feng Tianlan, seeing that there was no danger at the moment, gently placed Feng Yuanxi on the ground.
Feng Yuanxi ran over to Gu Qingluan with quick steps, tightly gripping her hand.
In Gu Qingluanâs eyes, there were subtle ripples, and she softly asked, âTheyâre apologizing to you. Will you forgive them?â
The hearts of those commoners instantly hung in the balance as they stared closely at Feng Yuanxi.
Feng Yuanxi, with his clear and distinct black and white eyes, looked at everyone and finally landed on Gu Qingluanâs face. âMother, do you want to forgive them?â
Gu Qingluan smiled and patted his head. âIf little Yuanxi forgives them, then 1 forgive them too. If you donât forgive them, mother wonât forgive them either.â
Upon hearing this, the people became even more nervous, unable to help licking their dry lips.
âYoung Master Yuanxi, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time, and I wonât wrongly accuse anyone again in the future.â
âYoung Master Yuanxi, I almost hit you earlier. It was my mistake, and 1 apologize to you!â As he spoke, he gave himself a couple of hard slaps.
Feng Yuanxi puffed up his cheeks and said angrily, âYou guys were scolding my mother earlier.â
Those who were clever enough to understand Feng Yuanxiâs meaning quickly gave themselves a few slaps on the face. âItâs all my fault for having a foul mouth and talking nonsense! The Guardian Princess is kind-hearted and not someone who seeks fame and reputation! Itâs my own fault for being blind and impulsive, unable to distinguish right from wrong!â
After saying that, they also gave themselves a few slaps.
Others followed suit.
Feng Yuanxi, seeing their sincere apologies and the genuine remorse in their eyes, felt his anger dissipate.
He looked up at Gu Qingluan.
Gu Qingluan smiled and encouraged him, âWhatever choice you make, mother will support you.â
Feng Yuanxi nodded. âMother, they already know they were wrong, and Yuanxi can forgive them.â
Upon hearing this, the people were grateful and knelt down to express their gratitude.
âThank you, Young Master! You have a heart as kind as a bodhisattva!â
Hearing everyone calling Feng Yuanxi âYoung Master,â Gu Qingluan pinched Feng Yuanxiâs little hand and winked at him teasingly. âLittle Bodhisattva, will you continue to help others in the future by giving alms?â
Feng Yuanxi nodded without hesitation, âYes!â
Gu Qingluan was surprised by how affirmative and quick his response was. âArenât you afraid of encountering a situation like today again?â
Feng Yuanxi shook his head, âToday was an accident, but even if such situations happen again in the future, Iâm not afraid. Most common people are inherently good; they just lack experience and can be easily influenced by others. Through this incident, Iâve gained some experience, and if 1 continue to do good deeds in the future, Iâll be more cautious. This time, if it werenât for our kitchen staff being less careful, we wouldnât have missed the fact that old grain was mixed with new grain or that good rice was contaminated by bad rice. As long as we are more careful in the future, we can avoid many troubles.â
The amusement in Gu Qingluanâs eyes deepened. âLittle Yuanxi, youâre so clever. Youâve already learned so much from this. But even if we stay vigilant, there will always be opportunities for others to stir trouble, and we will also have moments of oversight. Why go through all this trouble? If you donât do these things, no one will blame you.â
Feng Yuanxiâs eyes seemed to shine. âBut if I donât do it, many people will go hungry. Although 1 know that my actions can only help a small number of people, like a drop in the ocean for the poor people in the world. But helping one person means one less person going hungry, which is better than doing nothing at all..â
