377 Happy or Pitiful
At night, Little Ah Yu was already asleep, but the others could not sleep.
Liu Shi was worried that Little Ah Yu’s identity would be exposed. Qin Huai was not a commoner like them. When his mother came to visit, she said that she had to give them a betrothal gift.
She had heard that rich families were particular about their status. Would they investigate Ah Yu?
Although her mother-in-law had asked Lord Zhang to help cover things up, her husband said that Lord Zhang was especially polite to that Madam. It could be seen that the Madam’s status was higher than the county magistrate.
!!
It was also because she knew this that she could not sit still. She endured the pain in her waist and wanted to pick Ah Yu up.
Old man Wang could not figure out why that Madam had come.
Was it a marriage proposal?
Although their family was improving, they were only an ordinary family. In the eyes of the rich and powerful, they were nothing.
“Old woman, do you think it’s got to do with Ah Yu’s identity…” Old man Wang said in a low voice, his tone filled with indescribable worry.
In response, Old Madam Wang deliberately increased the volume of her snoring.
Old man Wang: “…”
After holding it in, Old man Wang still could not hold it in.
“Old woman, I’m afraid your biological mother won’t even recognize you if she stands in front of you like this—Ow!!”
Feeling the flesh at his waist being twisted ruthlessly, Old man Wang’s face was ferocious in the night as he bared his teeth.
“A good man doesn’t fight with women. Hmph.” Old man Wang rubbed his waist and decided to ignore this old woman for the entire day tomorrow.
There was a gust of wind in the night, and a crack appeared in the window. A cold draft poured in from outside.
Old Madam Wang stood up and wanted to close the window. Suddenly, a hand stretched out and pressed down on Old Madam Wang’s arm.
“Lie down.”
After Old man Wang closed the window, Old Madam Wang’s voice sounded leisurely. “Didn’t you decide that you don’t intend to talk to me?”
“How did you—” Know?
Old man Wang closed his eyes and groped his way onto the bed. “I’m sleepwalking—”
Old Madam Wang: “…”
Old man Wang, who this round, could finally sleep in peace.
The two of them had been husband and wife for decades and had long formed a tacit understanding.
As long as Old Madam Wang did not do anything, it meant that the matter in front of her was not a big deal.
At least, they were all under Old Madam Wang’s control.
In that case, what was there to worry about?
He would eat and sleep. At most, if the sky collapsed, he would hold it up first.
Little Ah Yu did not sleep because Zhang Zhan had given her a new letter during the day.
This time, Qin Huai had deliberated before sending the letter.
Because he had used up everything Little Ah Yu had given him, he felt guilty.
That was why it had dragged on until now.
He apologized to Little Ah Yu in a very sincere tone, indicating that he should not have used so much at once.
But he did not explain his actions.
Firstly, he thought that Little Ah Yu might not understand. Secondly, he did not want this matter to be discovered by people halfway.
However, even though Little Ah Yu did not understand, Meatball did.
In the dead of the night, Meatball broke the matter into pieces for Little Ah Yu and told her about this.
[Previously, when I went back to upgrade the shop, I forgot to tell you that it’s best not to tell so many people that you have these things.]
Meatball was also a little helpless. It did not know that Ah Yu had actually shown all her belongings to Qin Huai.
If not for Qin Huai’s late letter, Meatball would probably only find out after a long time.
Little Ah Yu squatted by the soil and poked around with her little fingers. “But Big Brother Ah You is leaving. I don’t have anything else to give him.”
[You’re still young. It doesn’t matter even if you don’t give anything.]
“But we have to be husband and wife in the future!” Little Ah Yu said. “Every time Father wants to go out, Mother has to prepare something for him. Then don’t I have to prepare something for Big Brother Ah You too?”
[…This is different. You’re still young now. Even if you want to get married in the future, it will be a long, long time later.]
Little Ah Yu still wanted to ask, but Meatball hurriedly interrupted her.
If it really let Ah Yu continue, it did not know what twisted logic she would come up with.
[In short, you just have to pay attention in the future. At most, we’ll exchange for some amnesia spray and use it on the people who know. Everything will be resolved.]
However, there were also drawbacks to the amnesia spray.
If they sprayed too little, it might not work. If they sprayed too much, the other party might turn stupid or forget everything about himself.
Most importantly, that thing cost 100 points.
Fortunately, the quantity was very large, and it was not a problem to use it on 1,000 people.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Meatball would never let Ah Yu exchange for it.
To the merchant shop, the current Ah Yu was a poor existence.
Meatball liked those tutorials items in the mall. They were mainly cheap and especially practical.
...
The planting manual that they had given Old Madam Wang last time had played a huge role in the past few months.
Old Madam Wang was also very good at using public opinion to let the people of Hu Family Village truly feel the benefits of those planting methods.
For example, the sugarcane they planted was now big and sweet and full of juice.
After the Flower Festival, Old Madam Wang would return to Hu Family Village and start working on the sugar production.
As long as there were no twists and turns in the matter of the cane sugar, the Hu Family Village would rise visibly.
Old Madam Wang did this mainly to let Zhang Zhan become their backer. This way, they would not have to be afraid that others would come and cause trouble because of jealousy.
After all, Zhang Zhan was not an ordinary county magistrate. He was involved in Wanning City.
With the rise of the Hu Family Village, the Wang Family would naturally be at the front, and Little Ah Yu would gradually become known to more people.
Meatball did not want Ah Yu to be found out by others in the past mainly for her safety.
However, if Ah Yu wanted the mall in the spatial pocket to be useful, she had to stand out in front of people and let more people like her and accept her. The efficiency of her affecting the world alone was too low. Only by doing earth-shattering things could she achieve twice the results with half the effort.
In the beginning, Ah Yu’s mission system had missions related to the prosperity of the country and the strength of the people.
...
[Kid, what do you think if your mother is not your mother but someone else?]
Meatball did not know who Little Ah Yu’s real mother was. Even in the System world, some information was obscured.
It could only speculate from the established information. In any case, it should be someone with a higher status, and it might not be from the Great Chang. It was very likely that she was from the West Wind Nation.
However, Ah Yu did not have a good childhood. Her nominal mother seemed to be doing everything for Ah Yu’s good, and she even lost her life because of Ah Yu.
However, in Meatball’s opinion, that “mother” did not use all her strength to protect Ah Yu.
Otherwise, Ah Yu would not have led such a miserable life.
Little Ah Yu said, “I know. I have two mothers!”
[You remember everything?!]
Meatball was a little nervous. Ah Yu’s intelligence had already returned to normal. If she recalled those things in the past, would it affect her current personality?
“I remember.” Little Ah Yu’s eyes lit up. “Other people only have one mother, but I have two. I’m a fortunate child.”
At the same time, Ouyang Pei and the others in Puji Temple had already received the latest information. They learned that the little girl who looked like Ruan Ruan was the third daughter of the Xie family in Dongling County and was the child of their aunt.
Moreover, there was a midwife to witness her birth.
Holding the thin piece of paper in front of him, Ouyang Changjing almost lost his balance. “It means that Ruan Ruan has already—”
“Poor child!” Ouyang Pei thought of the little girl with a smile in her eyes. He did not expect her to grow up in such an environment.
Even though she had gone through such torment, she still had a pair of clear eyes.
