Become a god in the world of Cthulhu

Chapter 185
When Ye Sijin returned to her grandmother, the table was already full of people, and only the seat next to her grandmother was empty, which was reserved for her.

Grandma Ye didn't ask anything, she just pulled the chair a little further so that the little girl could sit down.

Ye Sijin likes this kind of banquet very much. She can eat a little of each dish and feels very satisfied.The only thing that made her feel a little regretful was that there was no fried meat with mushrooms at this banquet!

The banquet lasted for nearly two hours before it was truly over. The guests dispersed, and Village Chief Tao's house gradually became quiet.

Village head Tao and his wife sat in front of the bed, taking stock of the family's belongings. Now that Shu'er has passed the Juren exam, she will naturally continue to take the exam.When a child travels far away to study alone, the parents are always worried, and they need to bring him some money.

Village head Tao recalled what county head Tan told him during the day, "Your son is full of talent, both ability and political integrity. If you continue your studies, you will definitely be able to make great achievements!"

"Duohong Confucianism in the capital is a good place to study!" These were the last words that County Magistrate Tan said before leaving.

Village Chief Tao hesitated, the capital city is still too far away!

In the end, it was Tao Shu who expressed his stance, "Dad, children are not afraid of distance. You should not be afraid of hardships when studying. The edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum leaves comes from the bitter cold. Parents, please rest assured and wait for the child to come back!" Tao Shu thought. Ah, returning home in rich clothes, this is probably a dream that every scholar has had, and he wants to make this dream come true.

Village Chief Tao doesn't understand Baojian Meiye, but he respects his son's wishes and lets him go if he wants to go. A good man has ambitions in all directions, so how can he be limited to one world.His son is so good that he should be thinking about getting some fame. This is a good thing!Village Chief Tao told himself this in his heart.

"Little Taoshu, go ahead, you must work hard!" Ye Sijin thought for a long time, but he was really not very good at saying goodbye, so he said this after a long time.

She knew that little Taoshu was leaving and no one would play with her in the future. Thinking of this, Ye Sijin felt a little sad in her heart.However, little Taoshu went to further her studies. Although she didn't quite understand the meaning of this word, she knew that it was a good thing.

"Okay! You have to be good!" Little Tao Shu stretched out his hand for the first time, rubbed the top of her hair, waved his hand, and left Bixi Village with his book bag on his back.

The weather is gradually getting cooler, but it's almost the beginning of winter in a blink of an eye, and Ye Sijin's birthday has arrived.

"What birthday gift does Jin'er want this year?" Grandma Ye asked her a month in advance.

"I want a big table of food!" Ye Sijin blinked and replied quickly.

"Okay! I got it!" Grandma Ye sighed softly. The little girl's birthday gift every year requires a big table of food. I don't know, I thought she was always hungry for the little girl and wouldn't give her food.But there was none at all, Jin'er had three meals a day, and never missed a single meal, and every meal was extraordinarily sweet.

On the day of Ye Sijin's birthday, Grandma Ye really cooked a big table of dishes according to her instructions, a table full of six dishes in total, taking the auspicious meaning of Liuliu Dashun.

"Bazhen chicken, sweet and sour fish, roasted duck with bamboo shoots, vegetable jade rolls, meatball soup, and... fried meat with mushrooms!" Ye Sijin stood in front of the table, counting the dishes on the table.

"Wonderful!" Ye Sijin looked at the dishes on the table, his eyes bright, and he suddenly put his hands in his hands and laughed.

Grandma Ye heard the movement in the kitchen and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm telling you, grandma's table has a really wonderful combination of meat and vegetables. There's meatball soup to warm you up, and there's also my favorite mushroom stir-fried pork!" Ye Sijin walked to the door with a smile. , talk freely.

Hearing the compliment, Grandma Ye's eyebrows widened, and she felt very grateful. She smiled and said, "You're just a poor girl!"

"I'll call the two little guys over!" Ye Sijin ran towards the door.

"Come back quickly, don't wait for the food to get cold!" Grandma Ye warned in the yard.

"I know!" Ye Sijin shouted from a distance.

"Aqing, Ake, eat more!" During the meal, Ye Sijin gave the two little guys a piece of duck each and said with a smile.

The little guys said in unison, "Thank you sister Jin'er!"

Ye Sijin looked at the little guy's cute and obedient appearance, smiled and rolled his eyes, and said repeatedly, "No thank you, no thank you, don't be polite to sister Jin'er!"

The two little guys are two children from the neighbor's house. Ake is the elder brother, five years old, and Aqing is the younger sister, three years old this year. The two little guys are very good.I always like to chase Ye Sijin and ask, Sister Jiner, what are you doing?At this time, Ye Sijin would answer them with a smile, and then take them to play together.

"Happy birthday to Sister Jin'er!" After the meal, little Ah Qing took out a bracelet woven with red string from her bosom, on which was hung a crystal-clear amber pendant in the shape of a plump, round drop.

Ye Sijin took it and touched the small pendant carefully. It felt like jade but not jade. After pondering for a while, Ye Sijin's eyes lit up: "This is herring stone!"

"Sister Jin'er is really smart!" Ah Qing said with a smile.

"This is the herring that my father caught, my brother dried and polished it, and I wove the rope. By the way, sister Jin'er, I heard that this can exorcise evil spirits!" Ah Qing introduced in a rambling manner.

Ye Sijin rubbed Ah Qing's little face lovingly, looked at the bracelet in her hand carefully, and said with a smile, "It's so beautiful! Thank you! Sister Jin'er likes this gift very much."

Ah Qing and A Ke blushed happily, "It's good that sister Jin'er likes it!"

At night, Ye Sijin took out the bracelet from her arms, tied it on her left wrist, and fell asleep peacefully.

"Ajin, is your Grandma Ye at home?" Ye Sijin was watering mushrooms in the yard when he heard a voice above his head. Ye Sijin looked up and said, "Brother Changhong!"

"A Jin!" The young man called Brother Changhong smiled softly, with a pair of faint dimples on his cheeks, which looked a little cute.

"Grandma is out, but if anything happens, just tell me the same thing." Ye Sijin replied.

"Oh! This is the money I got from helping Grandma Ye sell handkerchiefs at the market last time. Remember to give it to Grandma Ye!" Changhong smiled and took out a half-old handkerchief with money wrapped in it.
"Excuse!" Song Xiao glanced at him and said in disbelief. "No matter what, I did break my promise!" Tao Shu bent down and picked up a stone from the ground, made a gesture of swearing, looked up at Song Xiao and said, "If Sijin still has complaints, why don't you do it again?" Hit me once, and I promise I will never tell anyone this time. Really! This time, even if...even if my father comes out with a whip thicker than this tree, I will never say it again!"

Tao Shu said seriously while pointing seriously at the willow tree where Ye Sijin was sitting, which was as thick as a person's arms.

"Call Sister Ah Xiao!" Ye Sijin corrected.

"Don't! I'm not short-sighted. The last time was enough!" Song Xiao leisurely took off a willow leaf and threw it down. Watching it stumble to the ground, she replied coolly.

"However, I'm not such a stingy person. For the time being, I'll forgive you!" In fact, she had already forgotten about it. It was mentioned from time to time, and she probably couldn't remember it now.

"Then thank you Sijin Kuanhong!" Tao Shu smiled and rolled up his sleeves, and expressed his thanks in a decent manner.

Song Xiao curled her lips and once again took the trouble to correct her: "There are no rules, call me Sister Ah Xiao!"

Tao Shu blinked, smiled and replied, "Okay, Ah Xiao!"

"Hey! I'm three years older than you, and I've always taken care of you like an eldest sister all these years. Why can't I call you a sister in exchange? What a heartlessness!" Song Xiao looked at Tao Shu and said angrily.

Tao Shu tilted his head and looked at her, as if he was recalling something, and slightly elongated his voice, "Take care of her like a elder sister... Huh? Why didn't I know about it!"

Song Xiao looked at him in disbelief, "How could you not know this!"

Song Xiao clapped her fingers and counted in detail, "When I catch fish in the water, I will always give you one. I will also give you one if I fold a beautiful leaf. Even my favorite mushrooms grown by my grandmother, I will also give you one." I give it to you from time to time, and I will give you a few roasted sweet potatoes in winter, but you don’t remember these?”

"That's right! I don't know who it is, I don't know where I went to play, and I came home late, so I was afraid of being nagged by Grandma Song, so I just said that I insisted on pulling you to play and refused to let you go home. Grandma Song called you the next day. I went to my house and told my mother that in order to help someone, I had to acquiesce that it was my fault, but I was reprimanded in the middle of the night!"

"And a few days ago, in order to chase a yellow butterfly, someone stepped on the half-acre rapeseed field of Aunt Wang's house without even looking at the road under his feet. You yourself were in a hurry to chase the butterfly. I see you I was walking the wrong way, so I didn’t follow inside, and while calling you to come back, I was standing outside the vegetable garden, but Aunt Wang happened to see me, and I stood there and endured a long time of scolding for you!”

"Also, uh..." Before Tao Shu could continue, his mouth was covered by a pair of white and soft hands.Tao Shu was stunned, and his ears were slightly red.

Song Xiao smiled shyly and looked at Tao Shu's wide-eyed Tao Shu, "Okay, okay! Don't be so stingy to turn over the old score. If you don't want to yell, just don't yell!"

Tao Shu's mouth was covered, and he wanted to struggle to escape, but the girl was so strong that he couldn't break free at all, which made him feel even more ashamed and annoyed.

"Let go of me!" Tao Shu shouted vaguely with his mouth covered.

Song Xiao thought for a while, "Then you have to promise me that you will stop talking about this!"

Tao Shu couldn't speak, so he blinked vigorously to express his agreement.

Seeing this, Song Xiao let go of his hand in relief.

Someone in the distance shouted "Ah Xiao!"

Song Xiao glanced into the distance, and said to Tao Shu, "My grandmother told me to go back, little Tao Shu, I won't play with you today!"

After speaking, the girl ran home.

Tao Shu stood there in a daze, running so fast!In a blink of an eye, the person disappeared again.He seems to never be able to keep up with Song Xiao's rhythm. Ordinary people will at least bring their companions along the way when they go home, or say goodbye to each other before leaving separately. There are very few people like her who made a hasty confession without waiting for others to react. It's gone.

Tao Shu shook his head amusedly, what was he thinking!Isn't Song Xiao like this all the time, she acts with pure motives, doesn't hold back her own thoughts, and does whatever she wants.She is obviously a 15-year-old girl, but she is still as innocent and stubborn as a child, making it difficult for people to really get angry with her.

"Girl! Why are you running in such a hurry!" Song Xiao looked at the little girl's face that had become extremely rosy due to strenuous exercise with a smile, took out a handkerchief from her arms, and wiped the sweat from her forehead. Full of pity.

Song Xiao replied solemnly, "Grandmother asked me to call me. If I come back earlier, grandma can naturally worry less!"

Grandma Song said with a smile, "Little girl is really amazing, she is more and more able to please grandma!" There was no trace of blame in her tone, only pampering that could be easily seen at a glance.

"Grandma, is it time to have fried meat with mushrooms for dinner?" Ye Sijin asked quickly with a bright smile.

"Don't worry, grandma will never forget your fried pork with mushrooms!" Grandma Song sighed helplessly.

The same dish, one meal a day, after eating these years, the little girl did not feel bored in the slightest, but it was very similar to her mother's love for taro cakes, which has not changed for decades.

Grandma Song was cleaning the mushrooms, which had just been picked from the garden. They were plump and firm, fluffy and soft, with a slight smell of earth in the garden.Grandma Ye first cleaned them roughly, then tore the large pieces of oyster mushrooms into small pieces, and then put them in clean water and washed them gently.

Looking up, she accidentally saw a little girl sitting on a small bench in the yard weaving leaf rings outside the window. Grandma Song looked at her carefree eyes, and for some reason, she suddenly remembered the words of the Taoist priest who once traveled here: This boy is very talented and has an exquisite mind. If he is well cultivated, he will be of great use in the future.But now, the three souls and seven souls are missing one main soul. If the main soul does not return, her mind will not be able to grow. Although she will always be as pure as a child, she will not be able to show her talent and live a mediocre life.

At that time, she was lucky enough to scold the Taoist priest, her silky child was obviously just playful, and it would be fine when she grew up, but he made it up to be a mess.

However, as Xiao'er grew up, it seemed that she was gradually confirming the words of the Taoist priest back then, her mind was clear, and her talent was not obvious.

She took out the poems and songs and recited them to her. Obviously she was watching, the little girl sat quietly for a whole morning and memorized, but she couldn't even recite a short poem with only twenty characters. She took out her mother's legacy I gave her the martial arts cheats that I gave her, and she learned it for a full month, but she didn't learn a single move.

It's just not obvious!
Grandma Song sighed melancholy, looked away, drained the water in the basin and started cooking.
