Chapter 317

Aunt Yu felt that she was worse than a donkey!

The donkey won't move unless it eats, but she can move even without eating.

"Oh, my girl, you just cooked such a precious thing. It would be great if you could keep it for planting..." She held the bowl, feeling extremely heartbroken.

"I saved some for seeds," the child thought cheerfully, "and they may not grow well. What if I get lazy later on? It will all be wasted. I might as well eat them. Besides, this is lotus root, which is everywhere. How rare can it be? It won't be too expensive.

The ones like the beauty grass are really valuable!"

When the child dug it up, he looked at it for a long time, but apart from it having some spiritual energy, he couldn't see anything else.

Besides, with their luck, it is impossible for such valuable things to fall into their hands.

So eat it with confidence.

Aunt Yu couldn't help but sigh: "Even if I sell it, it will make some money, which is good. It would be a pity to eat it. Don't do it next time. Let's see. If it doesn't sprout, just sell it quickly."

"Row!"

The child was already slurping up the food with pickles. She agreed very readily, but she felt a little greedy before she finished.

It’s so crispy and delicious, even the porridge seems to be stained with the fragrance of lotus flowers, the hot steam hits your face, and the fragrance also hits your face.

The little bit of sugar she had deliberately put in there seemed out of proportion, and the rice was also a little lacking.

Maybe she should grow some rice.

Selling lotus root porridge.

But when I think about the few remaining lotus roots, I know it's impossible. There are too few to make a business.

Besides, her spiritual power and the spiritual plants she planted all belonged to Eunuch Zhang. Even if Eunuch Zhang was not watching, it would not be easy for her to secretly plant her own. It was not right to give massages to others and secretly plant beauty grass. But she had to make a living first before she could repay her debt.

Aunt Yu's eyes lit up for a moment, as if she had thought of something, but the light soon went out.

The two of them drank their porridge silently without mentioning anything.

Let’s talk about this later.

The door, which had just been built, creaked open a crack. Sun Xiaowa from the fish stall poked his head in, sniffing the delicious smell and asking, "What are you eating?"

This is a girl with a dark and shiny face. She has colorful pigtails tied with colored ropes, wears a necklace made of clam shells, has lipstick on her lips, and has beautiful nails dyed with marigold pollen. When she has nothing to do, she sits in front of the stall and looks in the mirror. She is a bit obsessed with beauty.

But she also had strong arms, and she could kill fish quickly and skillfully with her sleeves rolled up. Once, a fish buyer said something dirty to tease her, and she grabbed the fish and threw it in his face, then chased him across the street with a sharp knife.

The child knew her from the day they moved, because they had come to buy fish there before. They heard her family also made stir-fried fish, which was quite famous, but they had stopped selling it recently because her mother was sick, and her and her father's cooking skills were terrible, so no one liked them...

The child noticed that her feet, wearing straw sandals, were also dyed with bright colors.

Very beautiful, but a little dirty.

It was inevitable as it was so muddy outside. When Aunt Yu saw her for the first time, she greeted her and advised her to wear thicker shoes to avoid catching a cold.

Sun Xiaowa doesn't wear it. She sells fish, and her clothes are easily dirty with water and blood, and it's not worth the trouble to clean them.

This is also why, although she loves beauty so much, she wears gray clothes, so that her dirtiness is not easily noticed.

The child is still thinking about her beautiful nails.

Aunt Yu greeted her warmly, "It's Little Frog. I didn't make anything delicious, so the kids cooked some porridge. Have you eaten yet? Do you want to join us?"

Aunt Yu was a strange person. She couldn't bear to eat the porridge herself, but in order to get along well with others, she was willing to give it to others. Sun Xiaowa refused at first, saying that he still had to watch the stall, but he didn't leave. He stood there and asked how the porridge was made, and it smelled so good.

Aunt Yu was afraid of attracting attention, so she spoke vaguely and just served her a large bowl and asked her to take a taste.

Sun Xiaowa refused for a long time before accepting it. After a while, she brought the bowl back with some fried fish made by her mother in it, and there was another round of arguing.

Aunt Yu asked her, "Is your mother's illness cured?"

Sun Xiaowa said, "Much better. She came to stay for a while this morning, but the wind was a little strong so I sent her back to prevent her from catching a cold."

"You have to be careful. Keep warm in spring and cool in autumn to avoid any diseases. She just happened to be..."

The two stood at the door and chatted for a long time.

The porridge we talked about is almost cold.

The child just tried to be quiet and drink her own wine, with no intention of chatting with her. Although they were about the same age, she always felt that Sun Xiaowa and she were not of the same age. And Zhang Erwa, the waiter in the wine shop, seemed very experienced in his words and deeds.

It's strange that he can easily say things that children are embarrassed to say or can't think of.

Children don’t eat fried fish offal, so Aunt Yu ate most of it and took the remaining some back for Pumpkin to try. The child then put it into his own bowl.

Aunt Yu felt a little distressed when she looked at the fish offal, because she thought the lotus root slices were more expensive and it was not worth exchanging them for this.

After a while, he praised Sun Xiaowa for being honest.

After all, she didn't know either.

Being able to trade a bowl of fish offal for a bowl of porridge was certainly a good deal. The child shrugged, still thinking Aunt Yu was a little unrealistic. She had seen that when Aunt Yu served the porridge, she had deliberately pushed the lotus root slices to the side. Although she had plenty of rice, she only had two slices of lotus root. One of the slices she hadn't cut properly was only half a slice...

Even if the spiritual plant is valuable, a bite of it is not worth much, and 80% of the time people will lose money.

Aunt Yu understood in her heart that she just liked to nag. People are always afraid that they will suffer losses and others will take advantage of them, so they tend to be petty.

She didn't talk about this when they met. She even praised Sun Xiaowa's mother's cooking skills.

Sun Xiaowa also praised the child's porridge highly, but she only ate a little, saying that she wanted to leave it for her parents to taste.

When Aunt Yu heard this, she felt a little regretful that she had not given her more.

She thought it was a spiritual plant and the patient might get better if he ate it.

However, this thought only flashed through my mind and then disappeared. I didn't recognize it after all.

Aunt Yu just saw how hard the child worked in the wind and sun every day, so she developed some good feelings towards her parents, whom she had never met but heard were equally hardworking and down-to-earth.

But when she turned around and saw the mess she had, she no longer had the heart to feel sorry for others. She just wanted to feel sorry for herself.

Perhaps it was the effect of the lotus root, she felt her mouth wasn't so painful anymore, her anger was subsiding, and she didn't seem so upset anymore.

Although my foot is not healed, I feel much better.

He chatted and laughed with the people around him for a while. In the evening, he looked at the repaired shed and felt more relieved. Without the children carrying it, he said eagerly, "Come by yourself tomorrow and see if there is anything missing. Finish the remaining work. Then we can pick a day to open the shop. I'll take a break. Once my foot is healed, it will be easier for me to work."

The children agreed very much, and the two of them went back happily. Pumpkin didn't go out either, but was basking in the moonlight on the roof. When he saw them, he jumped down, ran over with his tail raised, meowed, and rubbed against them. He was so well-behaved that he seemed like a different cat.

The child was also a little happy, but after playing for a while, the man and the cat fell asleep face to face.

When she woke up the next day, she saw a cat with a bitter and vengeful look sitting right next to her head. When it saw that she had woken up, it raised its claws, hit her a few times, and then ran away.

Child:?

I got up without knowing why, got dressed and cooked.

Aunt Yu said while eating, "Well, why don't I go? I don't think it's a big deal."

Child:?

Is there something happening that I don't know about?

How come everyone has changed after waking up?
