Thanks for the invitation: In ancient times, people shared children

Chapter 303

Yundou said Lianli was doing this for her own good.

"Don't you think about it? You keep asking for your master and the others every day, and if you finally find them, you run back without even looking. What will Eunuch Chen think? Will he think you're an ungrateful, white-eyed wolf? Will he think he worried about you for nothing? And brought you here for nothing? Don't even mention that they raised other children. Even if they had other children, wouldn't they still be your masters?

If I were you, I would go in with my things and look at them openly. Even if I just sat for a while and then left, it would still be the same intention. Why do you turn around and run away? You are so old now, not a child. Who can still pamper you and coax you?

Didn't you say it yourself? Your master and the others treat you very well, so what else do you want? You can't let them revolve around you all their lives, right? You are their apprentice, not their daughter. Besides, are you really that good? "

Yundou spread her hands, obviously she felt that she didn't have any, but it was fair. The child also always felt that she was not as good as Waiya, but she just didn't say it out loud.

Before Yundou finished speaking, she rolled her eyes and said, "Don't always feel wronged. You are lucky. You know how many people in our family have difficulty seeing their families?"

"I don't know," the child shook his head, "but that's none of my business."

Yundou was choked by her words, took a deep breath, and said, "If you don't want to hear it, forget it. I'm too lazy to tell you. Anyway, if they were my close elders, I wouldn't just walk to the door and run away. They would be so sad if they knew. It's really a waste of their love for you."

Yundou always thought that the Liu family’s adoptive parents were very good. If nothing else, at least they were rich. If the child was well-behaved, there would be no need for her to be a maid.

She had no choice, she was born to be a slave, and what about the child? It was purely her own fault.

If she were a child, she would never live her life like this.

Sometimes Yundou would agree with the children, but occasionally, like today, when she was in a bad mood, she would look disdainful and her words would sound harsh.

But they are still good friends.

The two ignored each other. In the evening, Yundou said, "Hey, do you want to go eat?"

The upset child lying in bed got up and said, "Go."

You have to eat after all.

When he came back, he saw Gou Wa with Lian Li. He brought a jar for the child.

"The nuns gave it to you. They said you like it."

The child took it, held it in his arms and opened it. It was a jar of candied fruit.

This opened up her long-forgotten memories. Every August and September, when the fruits on the mountain were ripe, they would be picked. Most of them would be given to donors and believers on the mountain, and a small part would be made into dried fruits and candied fruits. If there were not many left, they would be eaten up before the New Year. She would then roll on the ground and cry, and would only feel better after being beaten.

However, she rarely cried about this, because the masters would always leave some for her. They didn't eat much of the candied fruit because it was very troublesome and required a lot of sugar.

When they were done, they would put the jar of preserves on a shelf in the cellar and give her a little at a time. When she was little more sensible, she always thought that there was no end to the sweet fruit in the jar.

After all, the jar was so big, even bigger than her head...

Later, the older she got, the smaller the jar became.

Until this moment, the jar in my hand is just a small round jar, like the fermented bean curd sold in jars in a grocery store.

The candied fruit was only half full.

Gou Wa scratched his head embarrassedly and said, “Originally there was a whole jar, which the nuns made especially for you, but your brothers and sisters were too greedy and kept eating it secretly, so when we found out, there were only this much left.

They don't have bad intentions, they're just ignorant and can't control their mouths. This is their gift to you as an apology."

He pulled out a bunch of strange things from his pocket: a chicken feather shuttlecock, small stones, leaves, a walnut, and a small peach wood sword tied with a faded red rope...

Suddenly, a loud shout came from inside the room: "Don't bring that thing in!"

It was Qiu Xin who was speaking.

Gou Wa couldn't hear him, so he vowed, "I didn't make it in time today, I'll buy you another jar tomorrow to make it up to you."

"No, just give these back to them. I know they didn't mean to. I also loved to steal food when I was a kid."

So the jars of preserved fruit had to be kept in the cellar.

The masters never expected a little child to be able to control her desires. One look and you'll know that she can't. When she sees something delicious, her saliva flows so much that her eyes are almost green.

It can follow people around and in a blink of an eye, its claws will be in the jar.

It was covered in candy and looked like a little bear, holding the jar and licking its paws.

The child didn’t know what he felt like at that time, but he would laugh out loud every time the masters talked about it.

She had always believed that she was very cute as a child, but... later on she realized the difference between beauty and ugliness, and looking at her own appearance, she thought that maybe she was just funny at that time.

And then now, she realized that she was no different, just doing what all children do.

They meant well, so she should have been more enthusiastic, or at least smiled. But the child didn't like Gou Wa or those other children, so she couldn't smile. She just went back to the house with the candied fruit jar in an almost indifferent manner.

Yundou knew he was with Lianli, and fearing she might offend him, she quickly smiled and said, "Don't mind her. She's just like that. She never smiles. Would you like to go in for a cup of tea, Grandpa?"

Gou Wa shook his head, put his things away, and left without saying a word.

Yundou: "Come and sit here often when you have time."

She waved, went back into the house and sighed.

But he didn't say anything.

What is there to say? No matter how much others say, it’s useless.

She tidied herself up and went to sleep. When she woke up the next morning, the child was gone. He had left her a note: "I'm going to see my master and the others. I'll be back later. Don't leave me breakfast."

"Huh! She finally figured it out." Yundou breathed a sigh of relief. If the child kept making trouble, she was really afraid that it would upset Eunuch Chen and the others.

Yundou threw the note away, picked up a big broom and started sweeping the yard. He cleaned up everywhere with great care and served tea and water to Chen Dianshen.

I didn't hear him look unhappy at all, so I felt completely relieved.

She is now counting on Eunuch Chen. Zhiyuan gave her and her child a handful of seeds. She plans to plant them well when she returns, sell half and keep half for seeds. She will repeat this cycle over and over again, and she will definitely make a fortune!

This is the important thing, she can't let the child hold her back.

Yundou was in a good mood and hummed a cheerful tune in his heart while working.

On the other hand, the child's melody is an unspeakable sadness.

She felt a little out of place here.

Anyone could greet her like a master, with impeccable enthusiasm, which was precisely the source of her sorrow.
