379 Training

In the Source World, even if the guardians realized the existence of the target, they would definitely not descend when they were young.

They preferred to talk to those already mature souls.

Only Meatball could not wait to come because it was tired of staying in the Origin Space.

As soon as it arrived, it realized that not only was the target of its protection a little kid, but her intelligence had also been damaged.

Now, many things were involved.

Meatball researched several books like: “Child Raising Tome”, “The Nurturing of Universe-Grade Quality Children”, “On the Formation of Children’s Independent Personalities”, and “Healing a Life with a Beautiful Childhood”—

In the end, it decided that it should treat Ah Yu as an independent person.

Just because Ah Yu was too young, it doesn’t mean that she could not be taught the ways of the world.

What if something happened in the future and it could not accompany Ah Yu?

“But you already know what I’m thinking.” Little Ah Yu did not understand why the elf insisted on letting her practice blocking her thoughts.

Didn’t she always talk to the elf in her heart?

[…These are two different things.]

[You’re the one who spoke to me in your heart. You were the one who took the initiative to tell me, but your thoughts and the desire in your heart can be blocked.]

Seeing that Little Ah Yu still did not understand, Meatball told her: [Just give it a try. Think about what you like the most now, but don’t let me know.]

In the next second, the other things in the spatial pocket disappeared, leaving behind all kinds of furry white meatballs. They were all squeezed together, and even Meatball could not find itself.

It realized that Ah Yu’s imagination seemed to be getting stronger and stronger. The products of these fantasies in the spatial pocket could even touch the subtle sense of existence.

[??]

Little Ah Yu: “But I’m thinking about you now.”

Meatball: […]

It really could not ask for too much from a five-year-old child.

Especially this child, who thought that she was only three years old.

Meatball still wanted to teach her more, but Little Ah Yu rubbed her eyes and said sleepily, “Elf, I’m a little sleepy. Tell me a story. I don’t want to hear the story of the vicious supporting actress—”

[…] That’s not a story. That was a warning for you!

Ah Yu was really going too far now.

Forget it, it was her guardian after all.

Didn’t it transmigrate billions of light-years to make her happy?

[Go over there and lie down. I’ll tell you the story of an interstellar princess today—]

Little Ah Yu closed her eyes and fell into a sweet dream.

After the festival, Wang Chuanman was about to officially set off again.

He was a little uncertain and tried to stay a few times.

“Mother, why don’t I stay at home for the next few days? I’m really worried.” Worried about what? Of course, he was worried about Qin Huai’s mother.

What if she kidnapped his precious daughter to be a child bride when he was not paying attention?

It was obvious that their family was rich.

If they took a few thousand taels of silver, would his mother sell Ah Yu?

Wang Chuanman was suspicious. This was really something his mother could do.

“You’ve been out for so long, but your brain is still like a tofu carving.” Old Madam Wang threw a steamed bun at Wang Chuanman and it hit his face. She said expressionlessly, “Pick it up and eat it. Get lost after eating.”

Wang Chuanman: “Didn’t we agree that I would leave later? Mother, you can’t despise me so much because I have so many sons!”

“You also know that I despise you? If you know that, stay away!” Old Madam Wang rolled her eyes and handed the small steamed bun beside her to Little Ah Yu. She then used the serving chopsticks to pick up some meat for Wang Aibao and raised her chin to call out to the women. “There’s nothing to do this morning. Rest at the steamed bun shop for the day. Take the new monthly money from yesterday to buy something.”

Her sons’ hearts ached when they heard this.

Not long ago, everyone in the Wang Family had their monthly salary increased.

After all, the masters’ monthly allowance was much less than the only servant at home, Tang Yuan.

Now, every adult in Old man Wang’s family had 500 copper coins a month. The children did not get much increase in their allowance, only 10 copper coins.

The women had the most money. Each of them had 800 coins.

Wang Dalang was also taking the adult’s monthly salary now. He had already thought about it. He had to be serious about his search for a wife this month.

It would be best if she could marry into the family this month. This way, Grandma would hand out a month of allowance to her as well.

Wouldn’t he have another portion?

After being rebuked by Old Madam Wang, Wang Chuanman felt aggrieved. He turned around three times with every step and left in the end.

However, he was now considered a popular person with Shopkeeper Zhou.

Although Wang Chuanman had never specially learned it, he was born to run businesses. As long as he sent Wang Chuanman to help him, not only could he save a lot of materials, but he could also earn a lot of money.

The young people from Hu Family Village who followed him had all earned a lot now. A month’s profits was equivalent to a year of work outside.

“Dear, if that Madam Qin comes again, you have to listen at the side no matter what. We only have this one daughter. You have to take good care of her.” Not to mention that Madam Qin would give them a few thousand taels, even if she gave them tens of thousands of taels, they could not sell Ah Yu.

Even if they agreed, the people from Hu Family Village would not agree.

After all, they were all planning to make a little golden statue of Little Ah Yu.

Of course, they were stopped by Old Madam Wang.

...

Liu Shi said, “Don’t worry. Even if I have to risk my life, I’ll make Ah Yu stay.”

Wang Wulang, who happened to pass by, could not help but say, “Fourth Uncle, Fourth Aunt, aren’t you thinking too much?”

Grandma did not look like a greedy person.

Otherwise, their family would have long been like the other landlords who ate gold and silver. How could they still be eating steamed buns?

Wang Chuanman turned his head and was about to speak to Wang Wulang when he saw Old Madam Wang standing silently behind him.

Old Madam Wang was holding a large broom above Wang Chuanman’s head.

“Wang—Chuan—Man—” Old Madam Wang narrowed her eyes and tightened her grip on the broom.

“Mother, I’ll leave immediately!” Wang Chuanman ran away and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Old Madam Wang looked at Liu Shi. “Why? You wanted to risk your life and fight me to the death?”

Liu Shi : “…”

“I remember that I still have to make two sets of clothes for Ah Yu. The cloth shop is probably going to close now. I have to go early,” Liu Shi said to herself and turned to leave.

...

Wang Wulang had long run away, and only his voice could be heard from afar. “Grandma, I’m going to be late for school. I’ll leave first!”

Not long after, the other children of the Wang Family also went out to school one after another.

After the Flower Festival on March 3, classes officially began again.

Only Wang Chuangui did not have to go to Qingmu Academy after becoming a county scholar. Instead, he had to go to the county city to seek Zhang Chuangui’s recommendation letter and go to the prefecture capital of the North County to study at the big schools.

The academy could nurture county scholars, but it was very difficult to nurture civil service scholars.

Little Ah Yu guarded Wang Chuangui and asked eagerly, “Second Uncle, you don’t have to study after becoming a county scholar?”

She also wanted to become a county scholar.

“Of course not. There’s still the imperial provincial examination after the county level imperial examination. After the imperial provincial examination, there’s the imperial civil service examination…” Before he could finish speaking, he heard movement outside.

Someone was at the door.
