'What are you doing? What are you doing?'
998 was sleeping soundly when it was suddenly woken up to do chores. It's bound to be a bit grumpy.
So for a moment, the tone of voice became less friendly.
Lu Huaijiao clicked her tongue.
'998, you've got some nerve! How dare you talk to your landlord like that? Believe me or not, I'll kick you out right now!'
Even after all these years, she still habitually uses this tactic to threaten 998.
Of course, she couldn't kick it out on her own, but she could sever her connection with 998 and keep it locked in the dark room, so it couldn't move freely and wouldn't be able to go to its world even if its consciousness wanted to.
Therefore, locking someone in a dark room is still a very effective deterrent.
998 cursed inwardly, but the system, under the eaves, had no choice but to lower its fat and noble head, which it had painstakingly condensed.
"Oh, it's you, host? I was just dreaming, thinking you were some bad guy, that's why I was a little rude. Please don't mind."
998 has become much sweeter with words.
It's probably something I've honed over the years by outwitting and outmaneuvering Lu Huaijiao.
Lu Huaijiao scoffed, deciding not to pay any attention to its blatant lying.
He then turned to ask about the things he cared about most.
'How far has Miao Yuan and Zhang Qiang's relationship progressed?'
'Miao Yuan? Who is that?'
998 has really become complacent.
They didn't even know who Miao Yuan was.
Lu Huaijiao explained it to him with a look of exasperation, and 998 finally let out a soft "ah," then slumped its chubby head back down to continue sleeping.
He muttered something like, "Gu Changqing and Xu Honglian are destined to be a couple."
Lu Huaijiao: ? ? ?
Does this mean that Miao Yuan betrayed Gu Changqing and ran away?
How did Xu Honglian end up with Gu Changqing? Could it be that Xu Honglian will also divorce her husband?
Lu Huaijiao was puzzled, her mind a complete blank. Before she could ask for clarification, 998 had already fallen into a deep sleep.
Lu Huaijiao: ? ? ?
Lately, I seem to be feeling quite sleepy. Is it because I need sleep to maintain my physical state? Or is it because I've gained weight and can't seem to muster any energy?
Lu Huaijiao had many guesses, but none of them could be confirmed.
We can only let 998 go to sleep for now.
Once it regains consciousness, we should suggest letting 998's consciousness leave and go to its original world to inquire about the reason why it suddenly solidified into a physical form and became so sleepy.
Forgive Lu Huaijiao. Although she was reborn, she only lived to be 85 years old in her previous life and was not very experienced.
This was the first time she had ever encountered something like 998, so naturally she had no clue what to do.
Although Lu Huaijiao usually mocks or criticizes 998, she is actually quite worried about him in private.
What if it keeps getting bigger and bigger? Will it explode inside her head someday? If that day really comes, will her head be blown to pieces? Will her brains splatter everywhere?
Lu Huaijiao felt utterly horrified at the thought of that scene.
No, we need to find the cause of 998's problems as soon as possible; we can't let this continue.
Once 998 falls asleep, it enters a long period of deep sleep, and Lu Huaijiao cannot wake it up for a while. She can only say that this will have to wait for today.
They strolled around the streets for a while, bought some things at the supply and marketing cooperative, and then took a bus from the county back to their village.
Three adults were with four children, and the children had no intention of walking.
There wasn't much to see in the town. We strolled around the supply and marketing cooperative and then went back to the village.
After they returned to the village, Zhang Qiang made an excuse to send Gu Yanping back to the village first, while he and Miao Yuan boarded the bus to the county one after the other...
More than ten days passed like this.
With the winter month over, the twelfth month is just around the corner.
Gu Changzheng, who went out to earn money, has been gone for almost a month.
Over the past month, he has called Lu Huaijiao several times to let her know he is safe. The most recent call was last night, when he dialed the only phone in the village.
Lu Huaijiao answered the phone and heard the man's hoarse and tired voice on the other end, and her heart tightened for no reason.
When Lu Huaijiao heard Gu Changzheng say that he wouldn't be back so soon and was planning to go to a coastal city in the south before returning, she pouted unhappily.
Fortunately, since it was over the phone, Gu Changzheng could only hear her muffled voice and couldn't see her pouting expression.
Even so, the other party did a lot of reassurance to her, telling her not to worry, that he had made money and was planning to buy some more things to resell, and once he sold them all, he would go home and have a peaceful New Year.
I'll accompany her to university in Shanghai next year.
Lu Huaijiao, who was already unhappy, couldn't help but curse him as a big idiot when she heard the man's somewhat hoarse but still carefully coaxing voice.
Is he really that sure he'll pass the exam?
To everyone's surprise, Gu Changzheng's incredibly hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone.
"My wife is the smartest person in the world, it would be strange if she didn't get into university. Our family is about to have a college student, our smart and kind little darling..."
Lu Huaijiao: ...
Well, although Gu Changzheng's tone was quite exaggerated, no one dislikes hearing nice things.
His words made her feel disgusted, but also warmed her heart.
He reminded him to be careful while he was out, and Gu Changzheng agreed. The two chatted for a while longer before hanging up.
