Chapter 5, Wonderful Aesthetics
"System, system?" Mingying shouted twice with her consciousness.
However, the dog system was just like before, pretending to be dead and ignoring her.
Mingying quickly put on another patched gray jacket that Minghai had brought over and slipped out of bed.
Except for grabbing rice with Aunt Chen a few days ago, the original owner hadn't gotten out of bed for nearly half a month, and his legs were weak.
When she almost fell, the three brothers quickly caught her with their quick hands.
"Brothers, I want to go over there." Mingying pointed to the closet.
Naturally, the three brothers would not refuse such a trivial matter and quickly helped her to the closet.
Mingying touched the wardrobe with her fingers and said, "Ding, 5 new points have been added, and the total points are 580!"
Sure enough!
Anything she touches will be converted into points according to its value!
The previous 500 points were Grandma Luo's silver bracelet. As for the original 50 points, Mingying guessed that it might be the bed she slept on, the quilt, etc., but the points were too few and were not activated.
Mingying touched the clothes in the cabinet and said, "Ding, 1 new point..."
"Ding, 2 new points have been added..."
"Ding, 1 new point has been added..."
The clothes were very old and had a lot of patches, so they were worthless. I only accumulated 595 points after touching them.
"Brothers, I want to go to the kitchen."
The three sisters helped Mingying to the kitchen without hesitation.
Mingying touched all the pots and pans again, and there were only about three kilograms of polished rice and more than eight kilograms of brown rice left.
The points increased little by little, and finally accumulated 702 points.
After touching it, the dog system, no, the touching system didn't respond again.
It must be because she doesn’t have enough points! Mingying thought, it seems she has to find a way to touch more.
"Brothers, let's go for a walk in the village."
The three brothers protected Mingying and walked out.
After three days here, Mingying breathed the air outside the house for the first time. It was colder than inside, but fresher.
Next door, Mrs. Luo was coming out to pour water. She was surprised when she saw Ming Ying, "Is Ying girl ready?"
"Yes, it's much better, Aunt Luo." Mingying smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you for taking care of Aunt Luo the past few days."
Minghai was right, it was out of love for Aunt Luo to help take care of her, and it was her duty not to take care of her. It was not Aunt Luo's fault if something happened to the original owner.
Aunt Luo remembered that Mingying had hurt her forehead because of her negligence, her face turned red, and she said with shame, "It's all because I made you suffer so much."
Several people continued to walk around the village. Mingying was weak due to premature birth and rarely came out since birth. She was not familiar with the adults in the village, so she only followed Minghai and the other three.
"Uncle Luo", "Grandpa Chen", "Aunt Liu", "Uncle Ergui"...
As for the children, in the past, Mingtao and Mingze were afraid that she would be bored, so he would take the children to play at home. Except for those who were too young, Mingying almost recognized them all.
All the adults and older children who saw her looked as surprised as Aunt Luo.
The adults and older children all knew that Mingying would not survive the winter. In addition, Aunt Chen had forced her to borrow rice and injured her forehead. They thought that Mingying should be lying on the bed half dead now, but they did not expect that Mingying could still survive.
Get up and move around!
The adults felt that it might be a return to the past, and sighed inwardly, smiling at Mingying with extra compassion and kindness.
The children didn't understand this, and they all looked at Mingying curiously.
Mingying discovered that there were very few adults in the village, and most of them were disabled.
For example, the village chief lost his right arm, Grandma Luo had problems with her left leg, and others were also missing arms and legs. Aunt Chen and Aunt Luo were the only ones with intact bodies.
She tried her best to recall in her mind some of the chatter between the original owner's parents when they were still alive, and guessed that it was because of the years of war, too many casualties, not enough soldiers, and both men and women had to go to the battlefield to fight.
But the children at home cannot be left unattended, so the family leaves a disabled adult who cannot go to the battlefield to take care of the children.
In ancient times, children were productive and effective, and each family had many children. As a result, there were fewer adults and more children in the village.
At this time, a little fat man ran over and said loudly and without restraint: "Mingying, you are not dead yet!"
Little Fatty is the village chief's son, his name is Luo Shitou, don't forget Luo Little Fatty, he is about to be seven years old, more than two months older than Mingtao Mingze.
Mingtao Mingze exploded when he heard this, "Luo Xiaopang, if you dare to curse my sister, are you seeking death?"
Luo Shitou raised his chin and said in a very low tone: "It turns out that she is, the doctor said she is going to die!"
How many years old do children seem to understand death?
Minghai said with a dark face, "Beat him!"
Mingtao and Mingze heard the order and rushed towards Luo Shitou in tacit agreement.
Luo Shitou is very strong, and Ming Tao and Mingze are also strong. It's okay to hit one Luo Shitou, but if you hit two, they will only get beaten.
Seeing the two people rushing over, Luo Shitou quickly ran towards home, turning back from time to time and making faces, "I can't catch you, I can't catch you!"
"Ouch!" Luo Shitou was grabbed by the back collar. He looked up and complained first, "Dad! Mingtao Mingze and the others beat me!"
"It was you who cursed my sister first!" Ming Tao said angrily.
The village chief slapped Luo Shitou on the head, "Go and apologize to Girl Ying!"
"I don't!" Luo Shitou said stubbornly.
The doctor said that Yingying was going to die. He was just telling the truth. Why should he apologize?
The village chief said: "If you don't apologize, I will let you take Ying girl home as your little wife!"
Mingying:......
The three Minghai brothers:......
Luo Shitou burst into tears, "I don't want to marry Mingying as my wife..."
Mingying: Oh, who wants to marry you, a little brat!
"She is so ugly, I don't want to marry her!"
Mingying:......
What the hell!? How ugly is she?!
The three Minghai brothers all have pretty features. When she wiped her body with warm water, her face was also illuminated. Although the photo was very unclear, she must be at least a pretty little beauty!
After looking around just now, Mingying felt that if she looked like this in a few years, she would be a village beauty. Luo Xiaopang’s aesthetics were really problematic!
Mingying thought that she was an adult inside and didn't care about children, so she glanced at the three Minghai brothers.
If your beloved sister is slandered and called ugly, her brothers will definitely help her vent her anger.
Unexpectedly, Minghai touched her head and said in a pitiful tone: "Don't worry, sister, my eldest brother will earn you a lot of dowry, and I promise to let you get married."
Mingze followed: "Third brother will also work hard to make money in the future."
Ming Tao smiled silly and said, "If my sister can't get married, I'll marry her."
Everyone thought she couldn't get married because she was ugly! Mingying's outlook on life was greatly shaken.
What does she mean by being ugly when she looks like this?
The village chief said to Luo Shitou: "If you don't want to marry, then go and apologize!"
Luo Shitou walked towards Mingying with sobs. The village chief waved to Minghai, "Minghai, come here, I have something to tell you."
Minghai thought of half of what the village chief said a few days ago, and his heart skipped a beat. Mingtao Mingze looked at Mingying and followed the village chief.
The village chief took Minghai for a long time without stopping. Minghai became more and more frightened. What happened that made the village chief avoid everyone?
The village chief finally stopped. He looked around and made sure that no one was there before he lowered his voice and said to Minghai:
"When your parents were at the rear of the battlefield, they fought fiercely with the Wu thief. Before they died, they killed a Wu thief soldier. Who knew that the soldier was not an ordinary soldier, but the only son of a Wu thief general."
