EBE Chapter 264 Crying Like a Dog
Chapter 264 Crying Like a Dog
"I smell like fish..."
Song Anning sniffed her clothes with disgust and quickly went into the bathroom to take a shower. The miscellaneous fish and shrimps she had caught just now added more than 30 species to the system's atlas. With this net, she made more than 3,000 taels of profit, which was simply perfect.
After drying her hair, Song Anning returned to the bedroom, took two pillows and leaned against them, then impatiently opened her backpack, which contained a black package.
"Master, are you ready? Xiangxiang is going to explain it to you, but don't cry."
"Why are you crying? I'm so happy to receive a five-fold reward."
"Tsk, you're still too young..."
Xiangxiang imitated Song Anning's tone and said something, then maximized the system screen and said happily:
"Ding ding ding ding... This is a package from another time and space. Because of the five-fold drop rate, there will be four more packages to be distributed at irregular intervals."
"Another time and space? Where did it come from?"
Song Anning thought of her parents first, but her intuition told her that it was impossible. They didn't have a system and couldn't prepare anything in such a short time.
But the next second, Mom and Dad's faces appeared on the screen. They were sitting on the sofa a little awkwardly, staring at the screen in front of them intently.
"Has it started recording already? There's no notification. How do I turn this thing on?"
Before getting to the point, Song Anning's nose felt very sore and her eyes were slightly red.
"Haha, Xiangxiang, do you know? In my previous life, whenever I showed up in the village, a group of elders would be waiting for me at their doorsteps with their phones. Some didn't know how to transfer money, and some didn't know how to shop online. Every time I helped them solve their problems, I felt a sense of accomplishment."
"Xiangxiang feels warm just imagining it. I guess those elders must be very grateful to the master?"
"Of course, sometimes they would bring me some roasted corn, roasted sweet potatoes, etc. It was just a small favor, but they thought I was amazing."
Thinking back to my past life, looking at my parents who had lost weight in front of the screen, tears welled up in my eyes unconsciously.
"Hey, Master, don't cry. Look at the screen. Mommy is starting to speak."
Song Anning sniffed, bought a pack of tissues from the mall and opened it. She had already anticipated that she would cry for a long time tonight, so she quickly got ready.
On the big screen, Liu Yan has already started speaking:
"Aning, are you doing well over there? Are you tired? Are you eating well? Are your family members there treating you well?
I heard from that system that you have been upgraded again. Don't be anxious, just work slowly.
Don't worry, everything is fine at home. Your dad and I are in good health, and our Mimi has given birth to a litter of kittens.
No matter what time it is, your health is the most important thing. You must eat breakfast on time and eat three meals a day well, including meat, eggs, milk, vegetables and fruits..."
As Liu Yan spoke, tears began to fall, and her voice was filled with tears:
"You will always be your parents' sweetheart. As long as you are alive, we will always be together..."
At the end of her speech, she covered her face with her hands and burst into tears.
A mother worries about her child even when he is far away. How could she not worry when the little baby she took such good care of suddenly went to another world?
"Don't just talk to me, talk to your daughter too."
Liu Yan wiped her tears and nudged Song Chengbo beside her with her elbow. It was bad enough that he was usually quiet, but the system said that the recording would only take five minutes, so why didn't he hurry up?
Song Chengbo looked at the camera a little embarrassedly, not knowing where to put his hands. After a long pause, he just asked:
"My dear, do you have enough money over there? You brought us so many gold bars last time. Do you have no silver left?"
"Haha, my dad doesn't like to talk, but every time he chats with me, the first sentence he says is this."
"Our family is rich, don't worry about me and your mother, just take care of yourself.
This year's pepper and eggplant seedlings have all been sold, and the pigs in the pigpen have all been cleared out because there's been swine fever recently..."
"Shut up. Why are you talking about this? Aning must be worried over there."
"Aning, everything is fine at home. Your father and I heard about it and dealt with it cheaply, so we didn't lose much money.
The food is all ours, and the money from selling the pigs is just enough to cover the cost of feed. Don't worry about the family, as long as you are well."
Song Anning took out a tissue and wiped her snotty nose, looking unhappy.
Even if the pigs at home are not sick, as soon as they are infected with swine fever, the price will plummet. They were previously sold by kilogram, but now they can only be sold by the truckload.
Even so, you still have to beg and plead with others to accept it.
"I can't help at all. I'm so anxious!"
There were only 30 seconds left on the top right corner of the big screen. Liu Yan leaned in closer to take a look and quickly said:
“Last time you recorded a video for us, your dad and I also recorded a lot for you, just in case you could see it.
But we don’t know how to use memory cards, so I went to the county town and bought a mobile phone and brought it to you.
This cloth bag contains the food Mom cooked, grain... and the gold bars you brought back last time. At the bottom are some thick clothes. Mom found a Hanfu master online to make them. They're made with a thin layer of goose down sandwiched between two pieces of cotton. You can wear them over there, too."
"You found it online? How do you have enough time?"
Song Anning was a little puzzled. She had just reached level three yesterday. Looking at the things her mother had prepared for her, it would take at least ten days.
"Hehe, this is something the system has prepared a long time ago. Master is lucky to have drawn it so quickly."
"I see. What else did you do? Confess the truth."
The picture on the big screen has stopped moving. In this short while, one third of the tissue paper in Song Anning's hand has been consumed. Her parents are her weak spot. When she sees them, she can't control her emotions at all.
"No, no. Xiangxiang would never do anything to hurt her master. Even if you don't know, it would be a big surprise, hehe."
"Thank you, Xiangxiang. Thank you so much..."
Song Anning was so moved that she couldn't wait to open the package.
On top were several wooden lunch boxes wrapped in cloth bags, containing cola chicken wings, steamed spareribs, pig's trotters stewed with soybeans, and beef jerky...
“They are all my favorites, all of them…”
Song Anning cried like a dog while holding the lunch box. Her mother has never been a careful person. She is always forgetful and even leaves her cell phone on the bus.
But when she saw those lunch boxes, she was afraid that the food in plastic or glass lunch boxes would be seen by people here, and it would be difficult for her daughter to handle those things if the lunch boxes were wrapped in plastic bags, so she was very cautious when preparing these.
As for those clothes, Liu Yan chose them according to the clothes she wore when she filmed the video last time, and made them into plain cotton-padded jackets that would not be noticed when she wore them.
Just by looking at these things, Song Anning could think of the care her parents put into preparing them for her. She hugged the cotton jacket in her arms, took a deep breath, trying to smell the scent of home.
But as she pushed harder, she found something hard hidden in the cotton jacket.
After opening it, she found a cell phone inside the clothes, and a small cloth bag filled with small silver nuggets, her mother's gold bracelet and necklace, the gold earrings and ring her father bought her for her wedding, and many small gold beans.
They were afraid that their daughter would not have enough money here, so they not only brought back the money they had before, but also added a lot more.
"Wow, wow, what should I do, Xiangxiang... I lost money raising pigs at home, and they also brought me so many things... Can I send them back?"
At this time, the system's large screen popped up again, and Xiangxiang smiled obscenely:
"Master, just press that shit-yellow button on the screen and Xiangxiang will tell you, hehe..."
