"It's nothing, girl, don't be afraid. We just want to thank you. These things are just a small token of our appreciation."

The village chief's wife brought the things on the ground to Mengyue. There was a lively hen and a basket of fresh melons and vegetables from the field.

Before saving the man, Mengyue had never thought about asking for any reward. She just thought that the boy was a small life and she had the ability to save him, so she would not be stingy. Unexpectedly, her unintentional act would yield great results and she would receive gratitude from others.

Seeing that Mengyue was refusing to take it, the old lady didn't care that she had just scolded the village head's wife, and directly snatched the hen and vegetable basket from the village head's wife.

"My granddaughter saved your grandson, that was a life, and you are just taking these little things, Zhou Juan, how can you have the nerve to do that?"

The village chief's wife knew what kind of person the old lady was, and she didn't take her sarcasm to heart. She just wanted the little girl who saved her grandson to accept her family's gratitude.

Mengyue didn't care about these things in the first place, but she couldn't bear to see the old lady being so proud, so she took the hen and vegetable stew from the old lady and handed them back to the village head's wife.

"Grandma, I saved Zebao unintentionally. Don't worry about it. Take these things away and use them to nourish Zebao."

"Oh, no, no, these are thank you gifts, how can I take them back?"

Seeing that Mengyue really didn't seem to be joking, the village chief's wife didn't force him and just handed the things to Mengyue.

When Mrs. Gui learned that her daughter had saved Zebao, she felt both scared and relieved, and at the same time proud to have such an outstanding daughter.

After the village chief and his family left, Mengyue asked the twins to pour all the snails they had found from the river into a wooden basin, rinse them several times with water, and prepare to eat them in a few days.

Just want to make the spicy snail dish, spicy seasoning is indispensable, but according to the original owner's memory and what she has seen and heard in more than a month, she has never seen any seasoning related to spicy.

It seems that she needs to take some time to go deep into the mountains again to see if she can find a seasoning to replace the chili pepper.

If you are lucky enough to find it, you will never have to worry about not having spicy food again.

[Ding! Gratitude value +2]

Just as Mengyue was thinking about when to go back to town and sell some of the medicinal herbs in the space, the sound of gratitude points being credited suddenly rang in her mind.

[Host, host, we have received gratitude points.]

The system's cheering voice made Mengyue's head buzz.

Shut up, I know.

[Uh, I'm just too excited. I finally waited until the host was willing to help others. This is not very exciting, I really can't help it.]

Mengyue ignored the system's ecstasy; she found her connection with it had grown even stronger. She hadn't felt the system's presence before, only being able to sense it when it appeared.

Sometimes she almost forgot that she was indeed bound to a system that claimed to be one of the top three in the world, and that their lives were connected.

According to the system, if they fail to complete the task of collecting 100 million gratitude points, they will be wiped out.

She had never taken this matter to heart before, nor had she thought about completing tasks and helping others.

But at the moment when the gratitude value was credited to her account, she clearly saw the appearance of the system in her consciousness. It was a cute little ball with big round eyes and a bulging belly.

At just one glance, she determined that this was the foodie system that kept asking for delicious food.

【System, it turns out you still have a body.】

【Ah! Host, can you see me? 】

When the system heard what the host said, it danced with joy. Mengyue saw in her sea of ​​consciousness that the little ball was jumping up and down with joy, not knowing where to put its hands and feet.

【System, what's so exciting about this?】

[Host, ever since I was framed by Xiao Jiantong and had my system restored to factory settings, I've been alone in a dark place. I don't know how long it took, but with the help of the Lord God, I was able to successfully bind to you and now have hope for revenge. You don't know how long I've waited for this day, woo...]

In the past, when little Tuanzi cried, Mengyue would just feel annoyed and couldn't help but yell at the system to stop crying.

But now she can see the system clearly, and it's such a cute little ball. Who can resist this? So when she scolded him, her tone became gentle.

[System, stop crying. Master will help you seek revenge on that little bastard, okay?]

[Hickey, really.]

Little Dumpling rubbed his eyes with his little hands, and looked at her innocently with his big round eyes.

As soon as Mengyue said this, she felt a little regretful, but seeing the eager look in Xiaotuanzi's eyes, she really couldn't say no.

On second thought, it's not good for retirement life to be too dull. Completing tasks and helping the system to avenge itself can be used as a way to adjust life.

[Really? It's more real than real gold. Have you ever seen me lie to you?]

The little dumpling tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded.

[Host, I haven't eaten yet. I'm hungry and want to eat some delicious food.]

Mengyue saw that the system had transformed into a little foodie again, and suddenly had a headache and said helplessly.

[Don't think I don't know that you drank a lot of mushroom soup during dinner.]

When the little dumpling heard the host say this, he immediately covered his face with his two little hands, and a suspicious blush appeared on his face.

[System, you're blushing.]

[No, host, you are seeing things wrong.]

The system denied it, stuck its little butt out, and put its head on the ground, trying to prevent Mengyue from seeing its embarrassment.

Originally, Mengyue was just joking with it, but when she saw the system confessing its mistake, she started laughing. The little dumpling was really too cute.
