One day, cyber worker Tu Hua woke up to find herself, along with her room, stuck between ancient and modern timelines by a system. She had inexplicably become the family deity worshipped for genera...
Chapter 232: The Family God’s Thoughts Are So Heartwarming
Ginseng?
Hearing the question from the household god, Xie Yuchuan was slightly startled.
After the Xie family offered their sacrifices, everyone went about their business. Some people, exhausted as they were, soon fell asleep.
But more people are so excited that they find it difficult to fall asleep.
Zhang Dayi, who saw with his own eyes that the Xie family offered all the precious gifts given by outsiders to the gods, except for a straw-woven mantis, came to Xie Yuchuan with excitement.
"To be honest, General, nothing I've seen or heard in my life can compare to what I saw with my own eyes this evening."
There were a few laughs beside him. Xie Yuchuan frowned and said in a deep voice: "Don't be rude to Master Zhang."
Zhang Dayi waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Wu Ying, Wen Jie and the others have no ill intentions."
"Sir, you can't always take care of them. They're not little anymore." Xie Yuchuan reached out and made a clean seat for Zhang Dayi. "Sir, please sit down."
Zhang Dayi had just sat down when the voice of the household god rang in Xie Yuchuan's ears.
Since there were no outsiders around him, Xie Yuchuan could talk to the family god with peace of mind.
"Xie Yuchuan: Is the family god asking about that thousand-year-old ginseng?"
After getting a positive answer, Xie Yuchuan patiently explained it to Tu Huan in detail.
"Xie Yuchuan: That thousand-year-old ginseng was indeed not originally owned by the Xie family. It was given to someone from the Xu family when they were exiled to Gaojia Village. This ginseng must have come from the Xu family."
Xu family?
Tu Huan thought of someone, "Xu Su? Your friend?"
"Xie Yuchuan: Exactly. Xu Su was born into the Xu family in Beijing. Old Master Xu was in charge of the Xu family, and the civil and military officials in the court were all descendants of the Xu family. The family had quite a bit of wealth."
Xie Yuchuan paused for a moment and continued.
"Xie Yuchuan: Songjiang Town was attacked, and the family spirit appeared and saved Xu Su's life. The Xu family sent a large gift, many of which were probably expressions of gratitude."
Tu Huan frowned slightly, "Many of your Xie family's elders are on the road to exile. This thousand-year-old ginseng is so precious. It would be great to keep it with you to protect your life. Wouldn't it be a pity to give it to me?"
"Xie Yuchuan: The family deity is wrong. It's precisely because this ginseng is so hard to come by that the Xie family wants to give this rare item to the family deity. I just don't know if the family deity would like it."
Tu Huan looked at the label of the thousand-year-old ginseng. Given its incredible value in this world, she said she would be punished by heaven if she didn't like it.
The Xu family is willing to do so.
Get one free, get two free.
The Xie family was very kind and only had two ginseng roots, which they offered to her as the "family god".
There are many elderly and weak people in the Xie family. Tu Huan thought about it and gave one of the sticks back to Xie Yuchuan. The latter felt a strange sensation in his arms and realized that the family god had actually returned one to him.
"Xie Yuchuan: Family God, this..."
"I'll just leave one for you. If you have an emergency on the road, you can use it."
Although, she felt that with the system's current enthusiasm for completing tasks and accumulating energy, even if Xie Yuchuan really encountered something life-threatening, the system would probably find a way to lure her over no matter what.
But, it's better to be safe than sorry.
No matter how smart the system is, it cannot be guaranteed to be foolproof.
It is better to rely on yourself than on others.
Even with her as the "goddess of the house", Xie Yuchuan still had to face all the "unexpected" things along the way.
There is no permanent way, there are always unexpected things.
She felt that this principle did not need her to explain at all, as Xie Yuchuan himself understood it clearly.
Sure enough, Xie Yuchuan did not send any more questioning messages.
The two people were separated by countless light years of time and space, but they formed similar cognitions without any prior agreement.
Xie Yuchuan took out the valuable thank-you gift that the old man of the Xu family had specially sent from his arms. After a moment of contemplation, he handed the gift to Xie Wenjie and said, "Go tell grandma that it was given by the family deity."
"good."
Old Madam Xie was gently awakened by her daughter-in-law. She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Xie Wenjie.
Xie Wenjie handed the thousand-year-old ginseng that he had previously offered to the family god and then sent back out of thin air to Mrs. Xie.
Madam Xie's eyes widened instantly. She lowered her head to look at her palms, then raised her head again, not quite understanding, "What's going on with this ginseng?"
Xie Wenjie repeated what his sixth brother had told him.
Old Madam Xie looked at the heavy tonic in her palm, her eyes moistened.
[The system has collected over 100 gratitude points from Xie Clan's Cui Yueru. Congratulations to the host! The Purple Star Medal has been sent to the personal achievement column. Please keep up the good work!]
[Notice: Three achievement medals can summon an achievement gift pack!]
Tu Huan had already turned off the lights, when she suddenly heard the system jumping up and down like a monkey in the dark, reporting to her.
She felt sleepy and only looked at half of the offerings in detail. She fell asleep before she could see the exquisite straw-woven mantis by Hanlin Zhang Dayi.
The old man was so worried that he stared with his eyes wide open and couldn't sleep all night.
The dew in the early morning is very heavy, especially near the mountains and forests.
When the fog is thick, you can't see the road ahead at all. It is very unsafe to travel in such foggy weather.
When Xiong Jiushan woke up, someone from downstairs came to report that it was almost dawn and the fog around him had not yet dissipated. Could he still travel in such weather?
It's been delayed for so long, and you're still asking if it's possible?
Even if you move forward slowly in small steps, you cannot just stop where you are and waste time.
So, facing the heavy fog, the exile team stumbled forward in the damp and cold mist.
The Xie family was in good spirits today. Even though the conditions for the journey were difficult, the Xie family, who had just finished offering sacrifices to the family gods, inexplicably felt a power in their bodies that was different from that of others.
The fog was so thick that people behind couldn't see clearly what was ahead if the distance was too far.
Under such escort conditions, the most troublesome ones are the escorts, who dare not relax at all, and have to watch over the prisoners one by one from beginning to end, provided that the escorts can see them.
In order to avoid a shortage of manpower to guard the fugitives during the march, the officers automatically and consciously kept a close eye on the fugitives from both sides at a staggered distance. Anyone in the team who had any evil thoughts would be severely beaten.
However, even so.
The officials were still not reassured.
An old yamen runner went to ask Xiong Jiushan's opinion. After returning, he offered a reward of dry food to anyone in the team who could provide the bailiff with information about a fugitive with the intention of escaping.
Unexpectedly.
This move is a bit damaging.
But the effect is very good.
Being exiled thousands of miles away is the worst option unless you really can't survive.
But this applies to prisoners who have relatives and families. As for those prisoners who are alone and living in the city and don’t even know where their relatives have died, why would they care about whether their relatives are implicated or not?
All nine clans are under his control. Once he finds a chance to escape, all nine clans will be liberated!
Experienced old yamen runners, when faced with such escort conditions, would single out these "key elements" separately.
They were detained together and the custody was extremely violent.
Tie Niu, who has always been with Pang Jiming's family, unfortunately meets this condition.
The guard grabbed him and took him to the back.
Pang Jiming looked reluctant and reached out to grab the Tie Niu brothers.
