August 22nd.
A good mood for the day starts with accepting a task.
Today's tasks are as follows:
[1. The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Is this the downfall of humanity, or someone's redemption? Please pay close attention to the Wu family in the compound and understand the relationship between the mantis and the oriole. The more people participate in this event, the greater the reward.]
[2. You haven't chatted with Xiong Cuihua about gossip in a few days. Your gossip partner is feeling lonely. Hurry up and comfort her and unlock the latest news from Tianwenxiang.]
[3. Your good husband feels that life has been a bit dull lately, so why not give him something exciting?]
These three tasks...each one is more crazy than the last!
The task of checking in with Aunt Cuihua can be completed.
Compared to the first task which was completely confusing, she wanted to know more about her husband. What happened recently?
It was not yet time for Jiang Baizhou to go to work. He was hanging clothes and Song Jiayu was staring at him. He was eating steamed buns and Song Jiayu was still staring at him. He... changed his hand to eat the steamed bun and Song Jiayu was still staring at him.
I'm staring! I'm staring! I'm staring, staring, staring!
It’s nothing. It’s the same as yesterday, the day before yesterday, and many other days.
"Hey, have you been lonely lately? I'm with you every day, isn't that enough? Stop being so unreasonable!"
Jiang Baizhou was suddenly told off. He stopped eating breakfast and had a lot of inner thoughts. Should he admit his mistake or try to save himself? "I was wrong."
But this time it was like stirring up a hornet's nest. Song Jiayu couldn't believe it, so she took out her handkerchief and started her performance, "Do you not love me anymore, or do you dislike my old age and fading beauty?"
At once, many question marks appeared in Jiang Baizhou's mind. This was a disaster for him. If he couldn't get through it, he would probably have to sleep alone next door tonight.
"Of course, I'm sure, I'm sure I don't dislike you. I love you very much, my wife."
"You pass."
Why didn’t the system show any rewards?
Yes, she has done this several times, so it's not surprising.
Staring at Jiang Baizhou's back as he walked out of the compound, she snorted and said, "Just wait, I'm going to do something surprising for you today."
Jiang Baizhou washed the breakfast bowl today, and moved the potted plants back and forth in the house, watering them, and inputting wood-type supernatural powers into them, hoping that they would grow healthily.
After taking three handfuls of melon seeds from the system warehouse, Song Jiayu waited until Aunt Cuihua was free, moved a small chair, and sat down together in the shade of the courtyard.
"Aunt Cuihua, we haven't chatted for a long time, come, eat some melon seeds, let's have a good chat today."
"Okay, your melon seeds are still delicious. Let me tell you about what happened in Tianwen Lane."
The two of them sat on small chairs with their thighs stretched out, making their legs look very long. There was a higher stool on the side, on which were placed their melon seeds and an enamel cup of water if they were thirsty.
Seeing this leisurely posture, the serious old ladies, Mrs. Qian and Mrs. Wang, wanted to curse.
Xiong Cuihua started by talking about the compound next door.
"Do you still remember Li Pingping who was pushed away on a cart?"
"I remember, what's wrong?"
"She went back to her parents' home. I heard it was because Xiao Zhou had been having an affair with a widow from the factory and even gave her his monthly salary."
"Oh my god, this is so exciting? Why didn't Li Pingping's brothers come to make trouble?"
"There was a huge commotion. Li Cheng said the four brothers went to the factory gate and blocked people off. They saw Xiao Zhou walking with the widow and beat him up on the spot. Later, Lao Zhou and the others came and tried to persuade him and beat him up, but Xiao Zhou was still bewitched by the widow's ghost and refused to give up. So Li Pingping returned to her parents' home with her two-month-old son."
"When I was in the hospital, I saw that Zhou Jie really cherished Li Pingping~"
"That kid Xiao Zhou is nice to everyone. When he was little, he always treated his sisters like sisters."
"I understand."
This is not proper central air conditioning.
She asked why she did a good deed but the person involved didn't even say thank you.
The gossip duo reunited and talked about how Jay Chou abandoned his wife and children for a widow, and what lengths the old workers would go to get a share of the house.
[Complete the task of chatting with Xiong Cuihua about gossip and unlocking new news, and successfully check in with Xiong Cuihua to receive a reward of ten kilograms of sunflower seeds.]
I’ve accumulated a lot of melon seeds recently!
Song Jiayu was cracking melon seeds while Aunt Cuihua was preparing to make lunch. There were five children in the family and the food Li Cheng brought from the factory was not enough.
She would just wait for Jiang Baizhou to bring back the aluminum lunch box when she didn't want to cook.
A pair of eyes coming from the poolside were always staring at her quietly.
When she looked over, Chen Juan seemed to be frightened and shrank back. According to today's mission, someone must be trying to cause trouble.
If anyone dares to mess with her, we'll all turn the table over and stop playing.
Perhaps because she knew how ruthless she was, Chen Juan never looked at her again. She went out for a while and came back, and never left the compound since then.
I followed it secretly until the evening, and completed one task during that time.
After eating, washing dishes, taking a shower, and changing into clean pajamas, Jiang Baizhou half-lay on the kang, looking at his wife sitting by the window with a small gap open, not knowing what she was doing.
"Sleep?"
"Wait a little longer."
"What are you waiting for?"
"I'll bring you something new and exciting."
I responded casually, the moonlight was quite bright tonight, and I could see the courtyard a little clearly, it looked like a still picture, and there was finally movement coming from the middle room diagonally opposite.
The door was opened, and Wu Li, the protagonist of "Night Walks Always", appeared.
Song Jiayu quickly lowered her head and turned off the kerosene lamp in the room.
Jiang Baizhou, who had been waiting for his wife to sleep, said: ...
Groping in the dark, she came to the kang and hushed him, "Don't talk. I'm taking you out to see a big show."
Jiang Baizhou understood his wife immediately and drew a horizontal line on the palm of her hand to show that he understood.
[Complete the quest "Do Something Strange for Jiang Baizhou" and successfully check in with Jiang Baizhou to receive a Wood Energy Leaf as a reward.]
She was speechless for three seconds, and the mood of watching a show came to her mind again. She took Jiang Baizhou to the window. Wu Li had checked several houses in the compound and had already climbed over the wall.
Not long after, the door of the Wu family was opened again, and this time it was Chen Juan who came out.
Because it was also dark, I couldn't see Chen Juan's expression.
People go directly out through the small door at the back of the compound that leads to the toilet.
Song Jiayu held Jiang Baizhou's hand and followed Chen Juan. She felt that there would be more interesting things to see if she followed Chen Juan.
It was difficult to walk in the dim night, so Song Jiayu took out a flashlight, but she didn't turn it on because the exciting part hadn't come yet.
Chen Juan in front was not walking very fast. She knew that her husband was going out late at night, but she was not in a hurry at all?
Between Wu Li and Chen Juan, who is the mantis and who is the oriole?
Watching a play late at night is really exciting.
Chen Juan slowed down her pace, probably because they were really approaching their destination. Song Jiayu, who was gradually becoming familiar with Tianwen Lane, probably knew where the incident had taken place.
Four chapters have been updated today.
