Looking at the bowl full of food and smelling the rich fragrance in the air, Song Cai suspected that he was starving and hallucinating. He rubbed his eyes vigorously and stared at the bowl on the ground.
In contrast, Song Xixi was much calmer. She stood up slowly and commanded nonchalantly: "Go get the bowl and chopsticks quickly. If you don't eat this noodle, it will be lumpy."
Now that she has replaced the original owner as a member of the Song family, she has never thought about eating alone. However, even after receiving the memory of the original owner, she still cannot call out the title "Dad" in front of Song Cai, and it will take some time to adapt.
Fortunately, Song Cai's attention was attracted by the shredded chicken noodles and he didn't notice the alienation in Song Xixi's words. He nodded stupidly and walked out one step at a time.
Soon, Niu Hua'er's exclamation and a burst of messy footsteps came from outside. The next moment, the three of them appeared in the room, staring at the basin full of food on the floor, with dreamy expressions on their faces.
.
Is this really a dream?
In this short period of time, Song Xixi had already thought of her words. Seeing them standing still, she reluctantly stepped forward and pulled Niu Hua'er's sleeves: "I'm hungry."
Listening to her daughter's soft voice, Niu Hua'er woke up from a dream and slapped Song Cai on the body: "Xixi is hungry, hurry up and get the bowls and chopsticks!"
Song Cai woke up completely, turned around and rushed out, going to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks.
Before the owner and his family left, they took the pot away, but left a few sets of dishes and chopsticks behind.
The fresh aroma in the air made Song Wufu take a breath. He walked over and brought the heavy basin to the table. Then he touched Song Xixi's little head and asked kindly: "Xixi, tell grandpa, this basin is used to eat food."
How did it come about?"
Song Xixi blinked and said nonsensically: "An old man with a white beard gave it to me. He asked me to call him Zuzu."
When Niu Hua'er heard this, she asked, "What about others?"
Song Xixi shook her head: "He put down the food bowl and disappeared. I don't know where he went."
Song Wufu and Niu Hua'er looked at each other, and saw awe on each other's faces: This old man with a white beard, could it be that one of the ancestors of the Song family had manifested his spirit?
In this feudal era, people believed in gods and ghosts, and would worship their ancestors during festivals to seek blessings. Therefore, when the two heard Song Xixi's words, they thought of the ancestors of the Song family.
Song Wufu, who was convinced, his eyes were red, and he knelt on the ground and kowtowed deeply into the void: "Unworthy descendants, thank you ancestors!"
When Niu Hua'er saw this, she quickly knelt down with a solemn expression.
Song Xixi's mouth twitched, but she didn't stop him.
We can't expose the existence of 001 and let her be captured by the Song family as a monster and sacrificed to heaven.
Although the Song family's love for the original owner, it is unlikely that they would damage the original owner's body in this way, but people talk a lot, and if the news reaches the ears of outsiders, she will definitely be in danger.
It is better to be an ancestor. Ancestors protect their descendants. They are just and right, and outsiders cannot envy them.
The hot shredded chicken was full of flavor and flavor, which made several people who had been hungry for many days reluctant to look away.
Niu Hua'er took the bowls and chopsticks brought by Song Wufu, neatly filled four bowls of noodles, and gave the two bowls with the most shredded chicken to Song Wufu and Song Xixi.
Several people were so hungry that they gorged themselves on the fragrant shredded chicken noodles and didn't care about anything else except praising the delicious noodles.
Even Song Xixi, who had tasted all kinds of delicious food in her previous life, thought this was the best shredded chicken noodle she had ever tasted.
Thinking of this, she was a little lucky to be bound by 001 on her own initiative. Otherwise, she would still be hungry at this moment, and she might have eaten the strange-tasting mush and vomited it to death.
After finishing the whole bowl of noodles, Song Wufu and the others wanted to eat more, but Song Xixi stopped them, fearing that they would eat too much at once and burst their stomachs.
It's just that the weather is so hot, the remaining half of the bowl of shredded chicken noodles has to be eaten quickly, and several people unanimously decided to finish it later.
Niu Hua'er wiped her mouth, looked at the still warm chicken noodles and said, "It would be great if Mom and the others were here."
After hearing this, the Song family father and son felt very unhappy. The bowl of shredded chicken noodles they just ate was not that delicious anymore.
It's not that I don't want to ask my ancestors to give the chicken noodles to the hungry relatives, but I just asked Guobao'er. Except for her, no one else in the Song family can see the ancestors and can't take over the old ones.
Food sent by ancestors.
I think that only after Bao Baoer narrowly escaped death and had weak Yang Qi could he see his ancestors.
Realizing that she had said something wrong, Niu Hua'er hurriedly changed the subject: "These noodles are white and fragrant. We have never eaten them before. It seems that our ancestors' lives are much better than ours!"
Hearing this, Song Xixi felt a little doubt in her heart: "Have you never seen him before?"
In the memory of the original owner, there was indeed no noodles. She thought it was because flour was so expensive in this era that poor families like the Song family could not afford it. Now it seems that there is no such food as noodles.
Niu Hua'er's words confirmed Song Xixi's guess: "We don't have such good things here, maybe they are available elsewhere."
Song Xixi carefully recalled the geographical environment of Songjiawan and concluded that it has a temperate climate and should be very suitable for growing wheat. However, there is no such crop as wheat in the local area, only a crop called rice.
The strange-tasting bowl of glutinous rice that Niu Hua'er served her before was made from rice and wheat.
This rice wheat has been ground by a stone mill and turned into powdery particles that are neither black nor white but not white. The taste is somewhat similar to wheat flour.
001, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly jumped out: [Ding~Start the newbie task: ask the host to find three rice wheat seeds. Completing the task will reward you with 100 points, and you will get 1 lucky draw opportunity. ]
Three grains of rice wheat seeds?
This task is not difficult, but now that we are on the road to escape from the famine, it is really not easy to find three grains of rice and wheat seeds. I am afraid that we have to stabilize the situation.
Song Xixi thought so and asked in her mind: "If the mission fails, will there be any punishment?"
001 puffed up his round little chest and said proudly: [As a serious system, of course it will not punish the host! It’s just that if the current task cannot be completed, the next task cannot be carried out. The host is also asked to cheer up and complete the novice task as soon as possible. ]
After listening to this, Song Xixi got rid of her last grudge against 001: "Don't worry, we have established a cooperative relationship. I will abide by my promise and try my best to complete the tasks of system release."
001 was moved to tears: [Host, you are such a good person, 嘤嘤嘤~]
Song Xixi, who was issued a good person card: "..."
If this guy were a human being, he would probably be punished.
After resting for a while, Song Xixi's hands and feet gradually gained strength. After dealing with Song Wufu and others for a few words, she walked out of the room and wandered around other rooms. Fortunately, she found the wooden warehouse where the owner's food was stored.
The owner's family was forced to flee the famine, so naturally there would be no food in the wooden warehouse.
Song Xixi, who climbed in with difficulty on a stool, was not disappointed. She carefully searched for the cracks in the wooden barn with her little hands, and soon she pulled out several grains of rice and wheat from the cracks.
The electronic sound of 001 then sounded: [Ding~Congratulations to the host for completing the novice mission, 100 reward points, and 1 lucky draw opportunity. Please check the host.]
