Chapter 28 Diary (Thanks to Min Mengmeng for being the leader)
"'Dantrian', it's time to get off work~"
In the jungle, 'Boutis' shook the sleeping maid to wake her up.
"Ah, sorry." Heshia suddenly looked up and hurriedly checked the time.
"It's okay, it's okay." Butis waved her hand, telling Heshia not to panic.
"Today's work has been completed well."
She walked to the side, checked the venom stored in the refrigerator, and then turned around.
"'Dantrian', do you know what these venoms are used for?"
"This... maybe it's for making medicine?" Heshia remembered Butis had briefly mentioned it.
"Partly yes, partly no." 'Boutis' asked Heshia to sit next to her.
"Part of the venom will be further extracted and then used to make some special potions, such as some spiritual medicines required for career advancement."
When the extraordinary sequence is practiced to sequence 4-5, some special resources will be needed, which may be some kind of fruit, some kind of metal, or some kind of potion, etc.
"Also, although some venoms cannot be used directly as medicine, they also have other uses, such as some rituals, etching, perfume, poison, and so on."
"It can really be made into poison." Although I heard Butis mention some of it before, I didn't go into such detail as today.
"Yes, poisons are strictly controlled, but they are indeed needed in some special occasions, such as when dealing with some difficult creatures. You will slowly learn about this in the future."
"Okay, let's not talk about this today. Are you free the day after tomorrow night? I have an extra job that I need your help with."
"What job?" Heshia was curious.
"One of my juniors or juniors is going to hold a small concert the day after tomorrow. She needs some help, such as checking tickets, selling peripherals, maintaining order, and so on." "
By the way, she is not too old, about 17-18 years old? She is also in high school, and the band members are all classmates from the same school."
"High school students?" Heshia was a little surprised. Generally, those who play in bands are basically adults. It is rare to see them among students, and it is even rarer to be able to hold a concert by themselves.
"The time is 8-10pm. Will Danterian come?"
"Not impossible." Heshia thought about it for a while. Although she was not used to the environment with too many strangers, if it was just work...
"Yeah, no problem." The girl nodded seriously.
"Then I'll trouble you." Butis responded with a smile. That smile made Heshia feel a little uneasy. She always felt that she had overlooked something.
But since she had agreed, it would not be good to regret it, and Sister Butis would not cheat her, right?
After work, because tomorrow was a day off, Heshia went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients and planned to try to cook at home. Grandma He would also teach her some experience.
Carrying the bag and walking carefully in the corridor, Heshia looked at the familiar tunnel, the pedestrians and children on the roadside, and had a lot of thoughts in her mind.
Although only half a month had passed, life seemed to have completely changed.
Back at Grandma He's house, Heshia took off her shoes, put on slippers, and put the bought vegetables in the refrigerator.
"Ahem..." She heard a cough coming from upstairs.
Heshia went upstairs, knocked on the door of Grandma He's bedroom, and then walked in.
The old lady was sitting on the bed, the night light at the head of the bed reflected her outline, and most of her body was in shadow.
"You are back, Heshia."
"I am back, is Grandma feeling well today?" Heshia knew that Grandma He's old illness had relapsed recently, and it was said that it would be more serious from May to June every year.
"Better." Her voice was slightly tired.
Seeing that Heshia's eyes were still full of worry, she waved again and asked Heshia to come over.
"Sit down for a while."
"Yeah."
"Did you just get off work today?"
"Yes."
"How is your work? I haven't been feeling well recently, so I haven't asked in detail."
"The work is good, and everyone treats me very well." The girl nodded.
Grandma He held Heshia's hand, and the girl felt the old man's wrist withered and the clear bones under the skin.
"That's good..." Grandma He nodded slowly.
"Actually, for the first job, you don't need to make money, as long as you can have enough food and clothing. The main thing is to adapt to the working environment."
"I did a lot of jobs when I was young, such as working in restaurants, doing sales for people, and helping to take care of other people's children."
"I was very anxious at that time. Why could I only get such little money? Why did the sisters around me look so relaxed? When would this kind of life end..." She sighed.
"Except for a small number of people who are born into a wealthy family, the lives of most ordinary people are not easy. They can occasionally save some money, but it is easy for them to spend it due to various accidents."
"Some of them are for themselves, some are for their families, and some are for relatives and friends. They always have to use money due to some unexpected difficulties, and you happen to have some money in your hand. If you don’t lend it, you will inevitably feel
cold-hearted and easily gossiped about." "But if you lend it out, you will also feel bad. You know that there is a high probability that you will not get the money back, and you yourself know how much time you have spent, how much grievance and discomfort you have suffered in order to save this little money."
"Life is like this. Ordinary people have too many difficulties and cannot be as peaceful and relaxed as those upper-class people."
"When I was a teacher, I taught the children to be kind and loving at first, but then I gradually stopped saying it, just because I was afraid that they would suffer a lot and be hurt because of this..."
"Kindness is not just about doing good deeds, it also requires wisdom and strength to support it. This is actually a luxury. Later, I felt that just not doing bad things and following the lowest moral laws is enough to be a good person."
"You have just entered society, and it is inevitable that you will be hit by many shocks. Many things you encounter will shake your previous views, and you will also be subject to many temptations, cough cough--" She covered her mouth and her body trembled.
"Girls, especially pretty girls, receive a lot of preferential treatment when they are young. This kind of preferential treatment can easily make people have a certain illusion that the world is just like this, that they are surrounded by 'good people', and that it is natural for everyone to give in to them."
"But as time goes by, when the appearance and beauty fade, this kind of preferential treatment will slowly disappear, and they will become like those aunties and grandmas who once looked down upon them. If they still clamor to be loved and treated by everyone as they were when they were young and beautiful, they will be despised and look hateful."
"This gap is very torturous, making people feel resentful and dissatisfied, or even self-pitying."
"I have taught many children and seen too many similar things. Sometimes I would sigh how the lovely girl back then became what she was like later."
"Heshia, you are a very smart child. You may have realized what I said before, but you still have to keep it in mind at all times. When facing some temptations and choices, you must be particularly calm, don't be easily deceived by other people's sweet words, and don't have some kind of fluke, thinking that it won't be a big deal if you do it only once."
“Human wills are very weak. Once they have tasted something sweet, they will never forget it. Even if they know it is poisonous, they will unconsciously try it again because it is easy and convenient, and does not require any hard work or effort. Then you will no longer be able to concentrate on doing boring and time-consuming things, and will only hope to try again by chance and win again.” Grandma He leaned on the pillow, her eyes looking far ahead, and she seemed to be caught in some kind of sigh and regret.
"Are you curious about where He Cheng's parents went? He Cheng's father, my second son, got addicted to gambling and was gradually controlled by others. Not only did he spend all the family's money, he also borrowed money everywhere, making his other two brothers and sisters miserable and unable to work and live." "
Later, his brother and sister, my other two children, had to move to other cities. They suffered a lot in the process, so they got married very late. When I was young, I wanted to save his life. I didn't want him to be harmed by others or go to jail for life, so I used the family savings to fill a lot of holes. In the end, his sister, my third daughter, Xiaoli, had no money to go to college."
"Because of this incident, Xiaoli's relationship with my mother has become colder and colder. He hasn't visited me in 20 years." Grandma He shook her head.
"In the end, he passed away. He died in an underground death race. His whole body was blown into pieces on the spot. Not even his ashes came back."
"I had sold this house at that time. It was my eldest brother who came back and bought it back for me so that I could have a place to live. But he also said that this was the last time. Then we came less and less. Now he only comes to see me once a year."
"After that, I took He Cheng and his sister and brother and raised them slowly. Fortunately, they both grew up well and did not inherit their father's characteristics. This made me feel at ease."
"Gradually, my teaching level improved a lot. I gradually became famous in the residential area and gained some respect. As time passed, everyone slowly forgot about the past 20 years ago."
"But I will never forget such things." Grandma He fumbled, opened the drawer of the bedside table next to her, and turned out an old photo.
In this era of full popularization of electronic products, photos can also be regarded as some kind of rare things.
Although this photo is very old and even faded, it is still well sealed. In the photo, Grandma He is young, about 30 years old, squatting under a surfing slide in an amusement park. In front of her are three children of different sizes. The oldest is 7-8 years old, and the youngest has just learned to walk. The one in the middle is holding a toy in his hand and smiling happily.
"Look, wasn't he very cute when he was a child..." Grandma He stroked the child in the photo, her cloudy eyes full of nostalgia and reluctance.
"If I could have educated him well at that time, it would have been great."
Heshia looked at the photo, and seemed to hear the sounds of play in the distant time, the hustle and bustle in the amusement park, the children chasing each other, and the child holding the toy man high in his mouth chanting "Fly, fly, I want to be a federal pilot in the future, a big star and a hero~"
The silhouette of time passed in a flash, and when Heshia blinked, the photo was so plain and unpretentious, without any abnormality.
"I'll remember it, grandma." Heshia nodded slowly.
"Well, just be careful. Actually, I'm afraid that saying these things will make you unhappy. After all, it's very disappointing, but I can't help it. Alas..."
"Okay, let's go eat something now. Tomorrow is your day off. It's a rare holiday. Go out and have some fun. Don't stay at home."
"I know." Heshia helped Grandma He to press the corners of the quilt again, then poured water on it before leaving the room.
Heshia returned to the kitchen downstairs and began to prepare for today's dinner. She was also thinking about the past events at home.
Because the two sisters were quite different in age, she didn't play much with her sister when she was a child. It was usually her mother who accompanied her. Her mother didn't seem to be in good health and was often sick. Perhaps it was for this reason that she didn't give birth to her and her sister at the same time.
As for life, now that I think about it, my mother's character is really simple. It seems that she rarely enters the society. She is like a young lady in the boudoir. She almost never quarrels with others, nor does she bargain, and she doesn't have much sense of the amount of money.
It's a pity that my father is missing now, otherwise I could ask him how he chased my mother. Compared with my beautiful mother, my father is too ordinary.
Heshia prepared the meal and sent one portion upstairs. She ate part of it herself and put the rest in the refrigerator. Uncle He Cheng would not come back for dinner until about 9-10 pm. He was probably still delivering goods for someone else.
After cleaning up, Heshia went into the bathroom to take a bath before returning to her room.
Seeing the flashing light of the personal charging terminal, Heshia walked over and turned it on.
[Heshia, you are taking a day off tomorrow. Do you want to go out and play? - Lina]
In fact, Lina also asked her to go out and play some time ago, but she was working and had no time, so she refused.
Do you want to go back? Heshia thought about it. Grandma He had just suggested that she go out for a walk. It seemed too dark to stay at home all the time, and she didn't know where to go for fun if she went out. It would be better to go out with her classmates...
Although she thought so, Heshia didn't really want to go out with her former classmates. It was inevitable that she would be teased by everyone, and she couldn't talk to them. But if she went out alone, she would feel a little lonely... It was
really contradictory. Heshia shook her head and started typing
[Well, tomorrow is a day off, where are you going?]
Let's ask first, and she
received a reply soon.
[Isn't there a new immersive movie recently? Let's go watch it together, and also go shopping in the pedestrian street, and then go to sing]
Watching a movie, Heshia didn't reject it. As for the singing at the end, she automatically ignored it. She would find a chance to leave early. It would be too embarrassing for her to sing in front of everyone, and she didn't learn to sing much, but her sister was good at it.
[Okay, what time do you guys meet?]
[Meet at Xuanjing Street at 1:30 pm, go to the movies first, then go shopping and eat, and go to sing in the evening]
[Okay]
After Heshia made an appointment, she put down her personal terminal, lay on the bed, closed her eyes and took a nap, she suddenly sat up, opened the personal terminal beside her, and found the official website of the academy for enrollment.
Irene Academy, the list of students for the retest...hasn't been announced yet? Heshia was a little disappointed. Logically, it should be announced in the next few days.
At Edes Academy, the blue and black rose flower pattern rotated. After the gorgeous interface was opened, it showed that Heshia had insufficient permissions and could not enter and browse. She could only see a small amount of external announcements and publicity. It only introduced the regulations for this year's enrollment, and did not give the admission list.
There is no result yet...
I still have to work hard, Heshia, the girl said to herself secretly.
Although I have awakened my talent, I still have a long way to go in life.
...
The girl wrote down today's experience and thoughts in the diary, and then slowly closed it.
