Coffin of the Nether World - C51

I still felt it was weird when I called out to her, but it was Sister Xiaowen after all. If I didn’t call out, she would definitely say that I didn’t have any manners.

Zhou Li smiled and nodded at me. I felt that it was even weirder, but I couldn’t even say what it was for.

At this time, Big Sister Xiaowen took over the message from her master, smiling as she said to her master: “This is what everyone is thinking, there’s nothing we can do, no?”

“Alright, alright. It’s really cold. Come sit in the room.”

Who would have thought that Sister Xiaowen and Zhou Li’s buckets were filled with delicious food.

“My dad said that the two of you are not having fun during the new year, so he asked the two of us to come and accompany you for the new year.” Sister Xiaowen said to her master as she placed the things on the table.

My eyes lit up as I looked at the table full of food. I reached out to grab a chicken leg.

Sister Xiaowen used her chopsticks and “Pa!” Bang! She hit the back of my hand and said, “Xiao Fang, you’re not allowed to use your hands to grab it! And you’ll have to wait until Master eats it, you know? This is a rule of respect for elders, remember, ha. ”

I rubbed my hands and shrunk my neck, then turned to look at my master, hoping he would eat first.

At this time, Zhou Li took out a bottle of wine at the very bottom, and said to his master: “Dr. Li, this is the wine I brought back from the city, if you don’t mind…”

“Not at all, not at all, not at all. If I were to be picky, who knows when I would starve to death.” As he said that, Master took the bottle and poured a cup for each of us after opening it.

But when I saw that the adults seemed to be enjoying themselves, I wanted to have a drink too, but I never got the chance, which made me very happy.

After Master poured it out, I picked up a glass and gulped it down.

This is …

“Wah!” Master, what the heck is this thing? “Water, water, water, I want to drink water …”

After drinking it, I instantly regretted it. It was too spicy! With my mouth open and my tongue hanging out, I continuously walked around the room, jumping up and down. I saw Master and the other two laughing in that direction.

I drank three glasses of water in one go and felt a little better.

“You’re so greedy.” Sister Xiaowen gave me a chicken leg that I wanted to grab and said: “Quickly eat, eat nothing! Don’t make me drink to your heart’s content later, you won’t be able to eat anything good on this table!”

I didn’t say anything, and of course I didn’t want to drink anymore.

At this moment, the sky outside suddenly brightened up, followed by a “Bang!”. A loud sound rang out.

I don’t know which family first put out the first barrel of fireworks (fireworks), and then followed by more in the sky continuously exploding.

After we finished eating, Sister Xiaowen and I took out the flowery cannons we bought in the town, put them outside, and lit them.

Big Sister Xiaowen stood behind me and said, “Xiao Fang, Big Sister Xiaowen still doesn’t know how long your birthday is going to be, tell Big Sister Xiaowen so that she can prepare a birthday present for you in the future.”

Birthday?

I was stunned for a moment, then thought hard for a long time, but I really didn’t seem to know that my birthday was a long time. In the past, my mother would happily tell me that it was my birthday one day, and then prepare a delicious meal for us.

But I never noticed that my birthday was a long time ago.

Looking at the fireworks in the sky, I said to Sister Xiaowen, “I don’t know. I also don’t know how long my birthday will be.”

I felt Sister Xiaowen’s hand suddenly stiffen on my shoulder. She asked me, “Are you worried about your father?”

Hearing these words, I felt my heart beat faster. Yes, it’s the new year. I don’t even know what my father looks like now. I have a master, but what about him? If he were to spend the new year alone, it would definitely be unpleasant.

After following Master for a while, I had figured out a lot of things. No matter how he treated me, he was still my father, and this didn’t change just because he beat me up or chased me out of the house.

I felt that my eyes were somehow moist, probably because the sand that was blown away by the cannons fell into my eyes.

Don’t worry, I’ve already asked around. Now, other than your dad not liking to talk, he has slowly gotten used to it and his bad temper has changed a lot. This year’s New Year is also at your second uncle’s house and he won’t be alone.

Sister Xiaowen told me what I wanted to know the most. I didn’t know what to say.

I didn’t want Sister Xiaowen to laugh and know that I was crying. I didn’t wipe it away and kept raising my head to look at the fireworks that were about to explode in the sky. The tears on my face also dried up.

“It’s the new year, big sister Xiaowen, let’s not talk about these things.” Knowing that nothing had happened to my father made me feel much more at ease.

Master and Zhou Li were still drinking wine and chatting about something in the room. It was probably either the matters of the village chief or Sister Xiaowen.

Zhou Li really does like Big Sister Xiaowen, but Big Sister Xiaowen had also said that she only treats Zhou Li like how a little sister treats her big brother. Sometimes, I also wanted to help Zhou Li, but I didn’t really know what to say.

When it was almost 12 at night, Zhou Li and Big Sister Xiaowen had to go back. Master couldn’t even say what he had told them to do, and could only tell them that this time of year was the safest time to go back, so even if you go to the cemetery, it wouldn’t be a problem!

After Zhou Li and Sister Xiaowen left, his master scolded him, saying that he was going to tear down this broken house.

I didn’t say anything, but just stood there laughing. When I was clearing the table, Master gave me two red envelopes, saying that Big Sister Xiaowen and Zhou Li gave me the New Year’s money, and told me to keep them myself. I will keep them for myself in the future.

The first thing I thought was, “So thick!”

I opened them and saw that there were thirty envelopes in each of them! Adding on the thousand that big sister Xiaowen gave me, doesn’t that mean that I have seven thousand?!

Then Master gave me a card about the size of his palm. I said, “Here, this is Master’s New Year’s money for you. Take it. You can use it when you go outside.”

I took it and looked at it. I felt that its shape was strange, so I asked my teacher, “What kind of order is this? What’s the chant? ”

At that time, my master was sipping on his wine. As soon as I said those words, he immediately spat them out and scolded, “What son of a bitch’s order? This is called a bank card, it’s for saving money! In the future, I’ll use it outside! Remember, the password is six ones. ”

Actually, I didn’t understand anything, but I put my bank card away with an expression of “So it’s like that”.

The second day is the first day of the new year. I originally thought that for no reason, Master would be rather lonely here, but I didn’t expect that almost everyone in the village would come to our house carrying bags of things.

How could this small room be used by so many people? There weren’t enough chairs, so he simply went outside to set up a large brazier and borrow a chair from a neighbor. Those who came sat around the brazier and set up a formation to crack the melon seeds.

It was impossible for Master to greet them. When Big Sister Xiaowen and Zhou Li came over, he immediately helped them call for help. Master then had time to drink his tea.

The more people there were, the more Zhou Li would tell the villagers about the road to wealth in the future, and even say that he wanted to build the Lotus Village into a lotus town.

I was once again dragged by Xiao Wu and Dongmei to meet my group of subordinates, and used to look for cow dung to bomb everywhere while holding a cannon.

This time, no matter if it was Xiao Wu or Dongmei, they both hid far away and told me in great force that last time Xiao Wu brought back all of his bullshit and got beaten up by his mother at the New Year Entrance.

The New Year also slowly passed by in this manner. It was the same in the countryside as well. After the end of the year, after a short rest, I would start farming.

However, their Lotus Village is different. They grow lotus roots, and this year, Zhou Li had become the village elder, saying that there are other things to do besides growing lotus roots.

After the New Year, I quickly learned Tao techniques and San Qing Book under master’s tutelage.
