"When we brought Jinxia back, what did you, as her father, say? You even didn't want Jinxia to come back, feeling that you couldn't hold your head up in the village. Now that we hear Jinxia is getting married, you're already scheming about her dowry. I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as you."
Old Liu looked at Liang Shuyan, remained silent for a while, and said, "You, how dare you say such things? Old Wang's daughter is missing, and it's all your fault. Now Old Wang is all alone. Why doesn't God take you away? You're still stirring up trouble for our brainless son."
Liang Shuyan suddenly thought of Xuehua and felt a pang of guilt. Old Liu was right. If Xuehua wasn't redeemed now, it was likely that not only Old Liu would say that, but many more people in the village would say that she was a heartless person!
Seeing this, Aunt Liu grabbed her husband and pulled him over, putting her hands on her hips: "Weren't you living a good life with Old Wang? Why are you coming back now?"
"Old Wang is sick, and I have no money, but I still want to help Old Wang get better and find Xuehua. Xuehua is the one who is causing Old Wang's heartache!"
After hearing Old Liu's words, Liang Shuyan seemed to suddenly remember something and casually said, "Auntie, you're all family, you should discuss it properly. I have to go back, I have something to do."
Liang Shuyan turned around and ran back, then jumped over the low wall with a bang.
I picked a few apricots under the apricot tree and ate them as I walked back to my house.
She opened the system and asked, "I want to ask, how much money do I still need to redeem Snowflake?"
The system's response was slow: "You'll probably need another 500 taels of silver. Adding that to the silver you earned from selling jelly last time, you'll only have 800 taels in total. The items in the warehouse, when converted into gold coins, will barely give you 2,000 taels."
Liang Shuyan stood up and rubbed her hands together. Thinking back on this period of time, she hadn't used the system much. Why was she being so stingy when it came to saving someone?
"Come on, this is about saving people! What kind of system is this? It even calculates saving lives with such precision?"
A voice immediately rang out: "I'm sorry, host, because the system has been infected. If you don't find a way to clean the system quickly, it may be exploited by someone with malicious intent. You don't know what Snowflake is planning yet, do you?"
"Plans? What plans?"
The system's voice seemed to pause: "Replying to the host, Snowflake plans to operate a demonic sect within the system, recruiting disciples and accumulating everyone's blood, then waiting for the right opportunity to save her master. At that time, we will all be finished!"
Liang Shuyan was scheming about how to save Xuehua, never expecting that Xuehua would have such a plan!
"Doesn't the store sell forgetfulness pills? Why don't we give one to Xuehua and make her forget everything!"
"Host, there's no time! Snowflake has used the system's upgrade function and has now reached the point where it can control the system's physical abilities. You need to find a way to raise the money. Only a system update can bring Snowflake back to its original form!"
Liang Shuyan slapped her forehead: "Oh no, how could I forget such an important thing? I had no idea what was going on at Stone Mountain lately."
Jin Sanwang's voice came from the courtyard: "Mother, I'm back. This is the money we got from exchanging those three buckets of cold noodles today, a total of 260 coins!"
That means we need another 260 coins to raise the money, but tomorrow will be another day and night. Who knows what will happen during that time? The system must be saved, otherwise Snowflake will use the system to do things that harm everyone.
Although this matter is a bit tricky, she now has to find a way to raise the money.
"If we can dig up some rare Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain, maybe this problem can be solved. Even if we can't find Ganoderma lucidum, we can find some valuable fungi!"
She didn't want anyone to know about this, so when her family wasn't looking, she took a basket and led Big Black up the mountain.
Big Black followed behind Liang Shuyan the whole way, occasionally barking a few times.
"What's this?" Liang Shuyan walked over and rummaged through the haystack with her hands.
She stared in surprise, "So many monkey head mushrooms, this one piece could fetch a lot of money!"
As Liang Shuyan picked mushrooms, she looked at Dahei and said with a smile, "I never expected our Dahei to be so smart. He can actually tell where the good stuff is. If I had known this earlier, I should have brought you up the mountain sooner."
In no time at all, Liang Shuyan had picked all the monkey head mushrooms in front of her and put them all into the system!
After walking for a while, Dahei kept scratching at a tree with its claws, and Liang Shuyan happily followed it.
Yes, it is a Ganoderma lucidum. It looks quite large, but I don't know what kind it is!
Previously, Liang Shuyan would use the system to distinguish between different types of Ganoderma lucidum. Now, fearing something might go wrong, she simply ordered the best Ganoderma lucidum to be put into the system's warehouse.
jingle!
With a click, the system displayed a string of text: "Congratulations, host, your gold coins have reached two thousand."
Liang Shuyan said angrily, "Say something! Can Xuehua come out now?"
At this moment, the system's cheerful voice popped up: "Congratulations, host! Snowflake's body is weak. She will come out to meet you in a little while. However, from now on, Snowflake will be an ordinary girl. She can be your follower."
Liang Shuyan didn't think that way at all. As soon as she thought of what Old Liu had said yesterday, she said firmly, "I'm just an old woman from the countryside. Why would I need any attendants? If word got out, wouldn't people laugh at me?"
"Host, so you plan to rescue Xuehua?"
“Go back to his original father and take good care of him.”
At this moment, Xuehua was already standing beside him, wearing a pink dress.
"Snowflake greets its master."
Liang Shuyan excitedly helped Xuehua up with both hands: "Remember this, I am not your master. You only have one father in this world. Go to your father's side now."
Snowflake had no memory of anything; she had no idea she had a father.
"Father?"
Liang Shuyan took Xuehua's hand and walked towards Wang Daikui's house.
In a dilapidated little house, simply furnished, lay the weak Wang Dai Kui on a wooden bed.
Hearing a creak, Wang Daikui struggled to get up from the bed.
"Yes, is it Uncle Liu?"
Presumably, the Uncle Liu that Wang Daikui is talking about is Aunt Liu's husband. It's clear that Old Liu has been taking care of Wang Daikui all this time!
"Old Wang, look who's back?"
