Chapter 263
263 Meatball Tells a Story
Now that Meatball had eyes and a mouth, the expression on its face could be seen.
Seeing that Meatball did not speak for a long time, Little Ah Yu immediately added, “I was just asking. We’re not buying it.”
The number displayed in the shop was different from what Little Ah Yu usually learned, so Little Ah Yu did not know if it was expensive.
[Kid, if you eat too much candy, you’ll grow a worm. Let’s not buy this.]
Meatball could not bear to look at Little Ah Yu’s disappointed gaze. It quickly used the price search method and finally found a large bucket of malt candy.
50 catties of malt sugar candy only cost 0.5 points.
[Let’s buy this. It’s also very sweet!]
It was the Mid-Autumn Festival now, and the malt sugar candies on the streets of Great Chang Nation were also selling well.
She would definitely not be discovered by others if she brought this thing out.
Little Ah Yu looked at the large wooden bucket in the picture. It was filled with golden malt candy and looked very delicious.
“Yes, yes, I want this!”
Meatball taught Little Ah Yu how to make the purchase. After clicking on the purchase button, a package appeared out of thin air in the spatial pocket and was placed steadily by the merit pool.
When Little Ah Yu saw the package, she immediately thought of the gifts she had opened previously. The regret in her heart for not being able to buy the chocolate candy disappeared.
After opening it, it was the same wooden bucket in the picture.
There was also a small bowl, a small spoon, and a piece of paper in the package.
On the paper were the words of the Origin World: “Please buy again if it’s delicious. Remember to drop a five-star rating!”
Meatball: “…” These people are always making trash.
Little Ah Yu scooped some malt sugar into the bowl with a spoon and stuck out her tongue to lick it experimentally.
Wow, it was so sweet.
It was even sweeter than honey!
It was even sweeter than what they bought on the streets!
Little Ah Yu’s eyes curved up from the sweetness.
He held the bowl and brought it to Meatball. “Elf, it’s very delicious. You should try it too.”
The little fellow was still wearing a beautiful dress and holding a bowl with an especially obedient expression.
Meatball could not help but pick up the light screen and take a photo of Little Ah Yu.
Then, he sent it to the origin space.
[My kid is good-looking, right!]
The origin space that suddenly received the information: “…”
Before this fellow left, it made a fuss about opening a fast communication channel. In the end, it was just to show off the ward he was protecting?
Have you forgotten that you’re a kid yourself?
After Little Ah Yu received the malt candy, she obediently stopped eating after taking a few bites.
She even went to rinse her mouth.
“Elf, can I give it to my brothers?”
[Don’t bring so much.]
After going back to advance, Meatball had also studied this knowledge.
From now on, it had to strictly control the kid’s privacy.
It could not let more people know about Ah Yu’s spatial pocket.
It even had to consider if it needed to use its ability to erase the memories of the adults in Ah Yu’s family.
However, at the thought that Ah Yu was not completely safe now, Meatball put this matter aside for the time being.
Since they knew and had protected the kid well, it would leave them alone for now.
Meatball examined Little Ah Yu’s body seriously. Seeing that she was doing well, it heaved a sigh of relief.
The updated interface showed that Ah Yu’s health was only 98. That was not because there was something wrong with her body, but because she was relatively weak now.
Although she was already five years old, she looked to be only two or three years old,
The Wang Family also announced to the public that she was three years old.
However, she was no longer as sallow and thin as before. Her face was chubby, and her originally very bright facial features looked even more silly under the effect of her petiteness.
She was like an extremely cute infant.
This was because when it went to the System World, it suddenly felt that something was wrong with the kid.
At that time, Little Ah Yu happened to vomit blood.
At that time, the Wang family also asked the doctor to check Little Ah Yu a few times to ensure that there were no other problems with her.
“Elf, do you want to plant flowers?” Little Ah Yu ran to the flower field to look at the flowers.
While Meatball was not around, Little Ah Yu was not idle. She was taking care of the spatial pocket every day.
She did not know how to do anything else. She could only help see if any of the flowers had withered and put away the seeds.
It was the same for the farm vegetables.
Usually, it would grow lush in two to three days. Some perennial vegetables could even grow for more than ten days.
She had to collect seeds almost every day for the vegetables and flowers which usually took a year to grow.
[There’s no hurry. Let’s not work today. I’ll tell you a story, okay?]
In the past, Ah Yu would only work for a while in the first half of the night. In the second half, Meatball would let her rest. Before she rested, Meatball would tell her a bedtime story.
“Alright, what story are you going to tell today?” Little Ah Yu had not heard a story for a long time. She finally had another story to listen to.
Her eyes were bright as she waited for Meatball to speak.
Meatball originally wanted to tell a few interesting fairy tales like before.
On second thought, it told Little Ah Yu another story.
[Today, I’ll tell you a story about Baby Yu. Her name is the same as yours, and she has the word “Yu”…]
Meatball was talking about the life that Ah Yu originally was intended to live. This was the “story” it had obtained from the System host.
Little Ah Yu cupped her face and gradually became engrossed.
Meatball spoke very slowly. It had just mentioned that the little girl called Baby Yu had grown to 15 years old and met a young man from the West Wind Nation. When the little brother saw Baby Yu, he was shocked.
[The young man asked Baby Yu if her mother’s name was Murong…]
Meatball turned around and saw that Little Ah Yu had already fallen asleep. It stopped telling the story.
[Child, do you know that this is the life you should have?]
[Forget it. I’ll ask you how you want to live after we finish the story.]
If Meatball had just woken up and found out about this, it would definitely have thought of a way to let Ah Yu’s life return to its original path.
However, after staying in the Hu Family Village with the kid for so long, it saw the Wang Family treating her with all their heart.
Even though Meatball did not understand human emotions before, it still felt that the child’s thoughts were the most important.
It might not be able to give the so-called fame and fortune of mortals to the kid for the time being.
However, it could definitely give her better food and clothing that mortals pursued.
Whether that kid wanted to return to her original life was actually not so important anymore.
However, the kid had the right to know the truth.
Even if she was still young now, she had to understand this when she grew up in the future.
Meatball did not want to wait until then for her to find out.
Of course, Meatball did not intend to directly expose everything now. In any case, it would let the kid listen to the story for a few days and figure out the cause and effect.
What happened in the future could wait.
The next morning, Little Ah Yu got up in high spirits and ran out of the door like a butterfly.
Before Tang Yuan could come over to bring her water to wash her face, Little Ah Yu had already run to Liu Shi’s door.
“Mother, Mother!”
Wang Chuanman, who was just hugging Liu Shi, froze.
Why was Ah Yu up now?
Without hesitation, Liu Shi gently kicked Wang Chuanman to the side.
As she tidied her clothes, she raised her voice and replied, “Hey, Mother is here!”
“Where’s Father? Did he wake up?” Little Ah Yu looked at the sky and was a little embarrassed.
She was just too excited and wanted to share it with her mother. She had forgotten that she could not disturb her so early.
“Yes, yes. He just said that he wanted to buy pancakes for you on Nanhe Third Street,” Liu Shi replied with a smile.
Little Ah Yu was especially surprised. “Wow, thank you, Father. You still have to buy some for Grandma and Grandpa!”
Wang Chuanman: “…”
Not only did he not get to satisfy his desires, but he also had to satisfy other people’s desires.
He felt bitter.
But he couldn’t even say it.
