Become a god in the world of Cthulhu

Chapter 180
After all, it was the first time in her life that the little girl admitted her mistake, so she was inevitably a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and twisted her clothes, and said softly, "Grandma, Jin'er has figured it out. Tomorrow, Jin'er will personally go to Hua Shu to apologize!"

Grandma Song was shocked. How determined must the little girl be to say such words as personally apologizing!
Thinking about these thoughts, Grandma Song smiled gratifiedly and said, "It's good that the girl can figure it out!"

"But it's not necessary to make amends in person." Grandma Song changed her voice, looked at the little girl with pity and said slowly, "Girl, with your grandmother around, you will never have to suffer. I, an old woman, will take good care of you." ! "Grandma Song said, and her tone gradually became a little desolate.

A girl shouldn't have lived such a life. She should have been pampered in the boudoir, like other official ladies, who grew up with rich clothes and fine food, accompanied by piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or followed her mother to dance with guns and swords, wandering in the rivers and lakes, Happy Enmity.No matter what, it shouldn't be hiding in this remote village with her old woman and living carefully.

It's a pity that good fortune tricks people! She, an old woman, can't do anything else but protect Jin'er in peace and happiness during her lifetime.

Jin'er looked at her grandmother half-understood, but she couldn't understand what she meant.

Grandma Song pinched the little girl's dirty face, and urged with a smile, "You don't need to understand, just be happy, girl. But, don't be so reckless next time. Look at your dirty little face, you've become a girl today My favorite dish is fried pork with mushrooms, Xiaohuamao, hurry up and wash your face, and get ready for dinner!"

When she heard that she wanted to eat fried meat with mushrooms, the little girl's eyes instantly lit up, and she happily agreed to wash her hands.

Grandma Song looked at the back of the little girl happily bouncing away, smiled helplessly and shook her head, the little girl has a soft spot for this dish, even three meals a day might not be enough.However, eating the same dish all day is also afraid that the little girl's diet will not be adjusted. Finally, after negotiation, it will be three meals a day, and one meal must be fried pork with mushrooms.

Fortunately, as long as you take good care of it, oyster mushrooms can be grown all year round, so she planted some in the yard.Pork is even better. There is a butcher Zhang in the village, just a few steps away from their home. Whenever the pork at home is finished, they can go to butcher Zhang at any time to sell it.Therefore, it is not difficult to satisfy this little hobby of the girl.

The next day, Grandma Song went to the village chief's house with two chickens.

Li Xiuzhu was sitting in the yard drying the quilt when she saw Grandma Song coming in carrying something, she casually put the quilt on the rope, clapped her hands and came over, "Aunt Hua is here! I told you it was just a kid's fight, don't worry about it." Take it to heart, besides, the girl didn't do it on purpose!"

"Xiuzhu, don't be polite to me. The child is hurt anyway. This is for the child to mend his body. It's shocking! You? No," Grandma Song explained while shaking the things in her hand .

"Hey!" Seeing this, Li Xiuzhu readily took the things, and said with a smile, "Then I will thank Aunt Hua for Shu'er. If Aunt Hua is not busy, come in and sit down!"

Grandma Song shook her head with a smile, "No, I have to go back and embroider a few handkerchiefs, and ask Chang Hong to send them to the market to sell tomorrow!"

"Okay, then go get busy!" Li Xiuzhu nodded understandingly and said.

Li Xiuzhu watched Grandma Song leave, and then took all the things back into the house, and the complaints that were not deep in her heart gradually faded away.

It is not easy to talk about Aunt Hua. There was a flood in her hometown, and she was separated from her family in the chaos. She fled to Bixi Village alone with her infant granddaughter.But fortunately, the old lady still has a good handicraft, and can still rely on embroidering some handkerchiefs to survive.In the past eight years, a lonely old woman and her little granddaughter have lived a decent life.

Aunt Hua is also extremely kind, but the little granddaughter she brought up with one hand is really too naughty.Either scaring someone's dog into the river all day, or jumping out from behind the wall at night to scare passers-by, or rushing into the ducks by the river, scaring the ducks to run around, or just three or two In a word, someone's little doll cried angrily for a long while.And so on, too many to enumerate.

But fortunately, they were all small things, and no major disasters were caused.Hurt Shu'er this time, it should be the biggest disaster that the little girl has ever encountered.Fortunately, the child has little strength and did not cause any serious problems.However, judging by Aunt Hua's attitude, she should have taken it to heart, and hoped that after the little girl was trained, she would be able to calm down a bit.

Li Xiuzhu thought about it, shook her head and sighed, she caught a glimpse of the quilt she hadn't aired just now from the corner of her eye.

"Yo! I almost forgot!" Li Xiuzhu patted her head, then ran to the yard to dry the quilt with small steps.

Such an ordinary and stable life is the fastest. With a flick of a finger, Song Xiao also changed from the naughty and childish little girl who accidentally smashed other people's foreheads with throwing stones, into a, uh...throwing leaves Play the 'mature and stable' big girl.

Coincidentally, she hit the same person.

"Huh! I remember it clearly. Before you went home, you clearly promised me that you would not tell me that it was mine. Then, as soon as you went back, your mother brought you here in a fierce manner. Fortunately, I was witty. , and hid in time!" Song Xiao got angry when he mentioned this matter, pulled another leaf, and threw it at the boy under the tree bitterly.

The leaves whirled lightly in the air, and slowly landed at Tao Shu's feet.

"I, Song Xiao, dare to act and act. I did it. I admit to whatever punishment I receive. But I didn't expect you to be so despicable and shameless. I didn't say anything, it was obviously you. You insisted on assuring me that you would not tell me out, but you betrayed me in a blink of an eye, it's just...it's a villain's behavior!" Song Xiao got stuck at the end of the talk, and found out after thinking for a while A word she thinks fits well.

Tao Shu complained: What kind of punishment! Grandma Song is so precious to you that she wouldn't even be willing to touch a hair of your hair, so how could she be willing to punish you!However, what happened back then was indeed his fault.

Tao Shu showed embarrassment, "It was indeed my fault for that matter, I broke my promise. However, there is indeed a reason for what happened."

As Tao Shu said, his brows gradually tightened, "You don't even know! A few days ago, my father just got a piece of cowhide, which was not too big or too small. He thought it might be just right to make a whip, but it turned out to be true." I made it for him. When I came home, my mother was asking me what was going on, but I refused to say it. When my father saw it, he got anxious and pulled out the newly twisted rope from his waist, which was thicker than hemp rope. The whip asked me if I would say anything.

Song Xiao's eyes widened in surprise: "Isn't it true that your father is so cruel? You are even willing to beat you even when you are injured?"

After Tao Shu spoke for a long time, he took a breath, with an exaggerated expression on his face, "Isn't that right? I was so scared to death! You didn't even see that leather whip dangling in front of my eyes, shining with oil. , majestic..."

Song Xiao sat lazily on the tree, leaning half of his body on the tree trunk, rolled his eyes, and interrupted Tao Shu, "Okay, okay! Don't pretend to be miserable, it's not like I haven't seen that whip before. , it’s hanging on the wall of your main house, you can see it as soon as you enter your house, and it looks very ordinary, it’s not as scary as you said!”

"That's because it's old!" Tao Shu curled her lips and argued unconvinced.

On New Year's Eve, the weather was very cold, and the village was silent. Except for the playful children who were willing to come out and run around at this time, there was almost no one in the streets and alleys.

"Aunt Song, you have to give me an explanation today!"

In the room, Grandma Hua was sitting on the bed by the window, embroidering a peony handkerchief.

Just as the rushing voice outside fell, there were chaotic footsteps in the yard.Grandma Song paused for a moment, gently folded the half-embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and put it in the basket beside her.

"Alas!" Grandma Song sighed softly and shook her head helplessly.I was thinking in my heart, wondering what kind of trouble the little girl had gotten into this time.Grandma Song walked to the door and saw a woman dragging a little boy in. The boy was still bleeding from his forehead.

Grandma Song was shocked, why did she still hurt someone!

The boy seemed to be unwilling to come, struggling to run out, but being dragged by his mother and unable to escape, his little face was flushed red.

These two people are Li Xiuzhu, wife of the head of Bixi Village, and her son, Tao Shu.

Grandma Song suppressed the surprise in her heart, and looked at Tao Shu kindly: "Shu'er, don't be afraid, what did my bastard girl do, you tell Grandma Song, Grandma Song will make the decision for you!"

Li Xiuzhu's tone subconsciously softened when she heard the words, and sighed, "I know Aunt Song is a sensible person. Even if someone is randomly pulled out from the village, there is no one who does not say good things about Aunt Song. If it is some other trivial matter , I won’t come to you anymore.”

As Li Xiuzhu said, her emotions gradually became a little excited, and her tone raised a little unconsciously, "It's just that this time, the little girl is too much! Look, she smashed my Shu'er! Shu'er is from our family. His only son, he has never suffered any crimes since he was a child, and this is the first time he has been hurt like this, I am a mother, it really hurts me to see it!"

Grandma Song glanced at the corner of the wall outside the courtyard gate, and quickly looked away.

"Come in and tell me! The child is badly injured. I have some bruise medicine here. Let's rub it on him for now." Grandma Hua said softly with a gentle smile on her face.

Grandma Song was rubbing the medicine powder on little Tao Shu, while listening to Li Xiuzhu's story.

"This boy refused to tell me when I first asked him. His father had to scare him and beat him if he didn't tell me. Then he said that he was playing by the river. The little girl was throwing stones on the ice. It happened to be wrong. It hit him. Although it was not intentional, Aunt Song should still educate your girl to avoid causing any trouble again!"

Grandma Song laughed along, "That's right! This matter is indeed Jin'er's fault. I will definitely teach her a lesson when I come back, and I will go and make amends to Shu'er tomorrow!"

"Aunt Song, you're being polite. Children are playing around. You don't have to be so serious. Aunt Hua just talk about her. It's getting late, and we have to go home to cook, so we'll go back first."

"Okay! I'm really sorry for causing you trouble, let the child take this bottle of wound medicine first!" Grandma Song said apologetically as she stuffed the medicine powder that she had just rubbed on Hua Shu into Li Xiuzhu's hand.

"It's okay! Let's go first." The other party's attitude was so good, Li Xiuzhu couldn't hold on any longer, so she had to pretend to be generous and waved her hand, and led Tao Shu home.

On the other side, Song Xiao saw Aunt Li and Tao Shu at their home outside the door, and knew that Tao Shu had betrayed her by breaking his promise. She was so angry that she decided not to treat him to grilled fish to apologize.

At this time, she couldn't go back home, and she didn't know where to go at this moment, so she had to wander outside aimlessly, and as she walked, she came to the river again.

Song Xiao stood on a high place on the river bank, looking down from a distance.

A thin boy was squatting by the river, struggling to lift a stone the size of a watermelon and smashing it towards the ice.

Is this breaking the ice?Song Xiao couldn't help but be a little curious. It was so cold that it was hard to see anyone in the village. They were all hiding at home to keep warm. How could anyone come out to break the ice and fish at this time?

She approached with light steps, standing in a place where she could see the man's movements clearly without disturbing him.

Standing at this angle, Song Xiao could also see the other person's appearance clearly. The boy about seven or eight years old had a handsome and lovely appearance, but the clothes on his body seemed too thin, which made his complexion turn pale.

Where did the little guy come from? She hasn't seen it before. Could it be from another village?Song Xiao wondered in his heart.

The ice surface in the deep winter is thick, and the stone hit the ice surface, leaving only a small pit that can be ignored, and then slipped along the ice surface, so he had to pick it up and smash it again. This time, the stone fell down. , It's not the same location.

Song Xiao frowned while watching, thinking in his heart, this person is so stupid, how long will it take to smash it open like this.

The boy also seemed to realize that this was inappropriate, so he squatted down, holding the stone with both hands and smashing it down one by one.

Song Xiao stretched his brows, nodded in approval, and cast admiring glances at him. This is a fool who is quite flexible, knowing that this road is not accessible, so he will take a detour.

After all, such a big stone was too heavy for a seven or eight-year-old child. At this time, the boy's forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat, and his face was also rosy due to the effort.

Fortunately, your hard work paid off, and after counting like this, there was a "click", and the ice cracked, revealing a hole as thick as the arms of two adults. The boy heaved a sigh of relief, and wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve beads.

Song Xiao looked at it seriously, wondering what this idiot would do next.

The boy stood up, rolled up the sleeve of his right arm neatly, then knelt down on the ice, and suddenly stretched his arm into the newly opened ice hole. There was a slippery touch, and he grabbed it into his hand suddenly, and looked down at the palm of his hand. It was indeed a fish, but it was pitifully small, not as big as his palm.

Song Xiao was so shocked by his series of operations that he couldn't speak, so he watched him put the small fish, which was less than the size of a palm, into the wooden bucket beside him, and then put his hand into the frozen lake again.

Song Xiao finally couldn't stand it any longer.

"You can't do this!"

Xiao Yi was startled by the sudden appearance of the voice, and retracted her arm from the frozen lake, the frozen blue and purple arm looked a little shocking.

He looked sideways and saw a little girl standing on the river bank, wearing a brand-new red short jacket and a pair of black long cotton shoes, her eyes were black and shiny, her lips were like dyed fat, and she looked radiant.
