Chapter 203
Chapter 203
As Aunt Yu was talking, she started mumbling again.
It would be fine at ordinary times, but now, in front of so many ghosts, she was nagging like that, talking about the kids owing debts and always buying snacks because they were greedy. She felt so embarrassed.
He couldn't help but pouting unhappily, his face flushed, and told her to stop talking.
Only then did Aunt Yu realize that something was wrong.
This person has a good heart, but he cares too much and worries too much, which can be a bit annoying.
Children often feel that she is not like their servant, but more like a worried elder who is always nagging. But she is different from Pei Zhu. She never says bad things about the children, nor does she force her to do anything. She just likes to nag, helps them while nagging, pays back the debts slowly, dislikes that she always spends money on snacks, but always gives her money to buy them.
So the children had no way to deal with her.
Moreover, they were clearly master and servant, and the child was the one who should support the family, but Aunt Yu would also do laundry and mending for others, looking for work everywhere to earn some money to supplement the family income.
The wages the children gave her were either put away or turned into something else for everyone to eat and use.
It's hard to calculate, it's just that you are in me and I am in you, it's a mess and a confused family.
Getting along with them is even more troublesome.
Fortunately, the child was broad-minded. If she couldn't figure it out, she would just let it go and live in confusion. Anyway, Aunt Yu would not leave her.
Let’s not talk about this gossip.
Aunt Yu couldn't help with the bone sorting. In her eyes, those things were all the same, and she couldn't hear what those ghosts were saying.
It was hard to just watch, so she asked the child if there was anything she could do to help.
The child pointed to a pile of bones and asked her if she could help take them away.
Aunt Yu was a little hesitant. It wasn't that she didn't want to help, but she didn't know anything about anything. What would she say when she got to the other person's house? She couldn't help relay what the other person said.
The children could tell her what to say, but the ghosts didn't like it.
They still wanted to say a few words to their family, but if Aunt Yu went to see them off, they wouldn't be able to do so.
So the matter had to be dropped.
Child: "It seems there is nothing I can help with. How about... you go buy some incense and candles for them to eat."
Those people's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this, but they still said politely:
"How can I let my benefactor spend money on this?"
"Yeah, yeah, I've been hungry for so long, it's okay if I don't eat."
"This is inappropriate."
"I, I have money, spend mine."
Everyone was talking politely, and suddenly a girl spoke.
He was about eleven or twelve years old, a little shorter than a child.
She said she had a purse in the box.
The child rummaged through it and found a purse. The copper coins inside were all rusty and the silver looked dirty, but it was money after all and could be spent.
She pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "Everyone has taken good care of me. Now that we have the chance, let me treat you all. The rest will be my thank you gift to my benefactor."
This is really an unexpected surprise.
The child did not refuse, but just told Aunt Yu to buy more.
"Okay, I'll go right away...just wait a moment."
Aunt Yu said something to the empty room, her back still feeling a little chilly, and she took the purse and left.
She was a little worried about the child's safety, but she also knew how capable the child was.
If something really happened, she would just be a hindrance if she stayed here. It would be better for her to do something to distract herself.
After Aunt Yu left, they continued to claim their bones.
The child continued to divide the food, and even had the energy to ask the girl, "Are you also an alien?"
She nodded.
Most of the women in the army are extraordinary people.
Aliens cannot harm ordinary people, so the purpose of the existence of aliens in the army is to control the aliens on the opposite side and guard against the death squads, spirit beasts, and demon beasts sent by the enemy.
They are the first to attack when they encounter goblins and ghosts.
The risks involved are no less than those of ordinary soldiers.
But at her age, she would not usually be sent to the battlefield.
Unless there is no one left.
That was the situation she encountered.
All the older aliens were dead, and there were monsters biting people, so she went there, but her skills were too poor, and she failed to save everyone and was bitten to death herself.
The girl named Shen Xue still feels a little guilty when she talks about this.
The eloquent man immediately defended her upon hearing this: "No, it's my fault. If I hadn't shouted, you wouldn't have been distracted."
Another woman said: "It was to save me..."
She was also an extraordinary person. From what she heard, Shen Xue saved her and she just breathed a sigh of relief, but the eloquent man shouted for help and she looked up.
All three of them died.
The two women died at the mouth of the monster, the eloquent Daming was killed by the knife, and the neighbor was chopped off and his head was separated.
The child found him and put him aside, then began to pick up the scattered pieces of Shen Xue.
"So what happened next? Did you win?"
The child asked.
They became happy again: "Of course we won. You didn't see it. Those people were beaten to a pulp by the reinforcements. Their flags fell down. There was no war there for many years after that."
They were happy to hear this, but also felt a little sorry for themselves.
If I had held on a little longer, even for just half an hour, I might not have died. Unfortunately, fate is a very strange thing.
The child sighed.
Yes, it is quite strange. If they had persisted a little longer, they could have gone out to play by now instead of picking up bones here.
Shen Xue remembered something and reminded him, "Oh, my benefactor, there's something else under the box. It's a gift from Sister Miao."
Miao Meimei? It's Waiya, right?
The child thought sourly: I haven't even called her sister, but she has become someone else's sister.
"She's older, why don't you call her sister?"
Shen Xue pursed her lips and smiled, "Because I've been dead for many years."
Child:……
The dead are the greatest, so call them as you like.
The children didn't want to argue with her, but thinking that there were gifts underneath made her more motivated, which was completely different from the numb busyness just now.
He eagerly inquired, "What did she give me? Forget it, don't tell me. I want to see it for myself."
The child thought she had to secretly hide a bone as a reward for herself, but she didn't expect that Waiya actually prepared a gift for her. She was indeed her best friend.
The children were so moved that their eyes were filled with tears and they were so happy that they were too happy to notice the other children looking at each other in bewilderment, hesitant to speak.
No matter how broken a box of bones is, they will eventually be divided up.
The things underneath naturally came out.
They ate incense and candles in silence, but their eyes glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally.
The child took out the things at the bottom of the box without noticing anything, opened the wrapping, shook off the dust that had fallen in, and excitedly opened the thing to take a look... His smile became a little stiff.
She looked at the ghosts who were looking up at the sky and the ground but not at her, full of doubt, and asked, "What is this thing? Looking at it...why is it so unlucky?"
