Chapter 138

It may be because the house itself is a stone building, so even in the afternoon it does not seem hot at all. There is a dark-colored fan hanging from the ceiling, which rotates and blows a fine wind. The air conditioner placed on the side is still covered even in the approaching summer. The cover, looks very sparingly used. The tableware on the table is a set of blue and white porcelain with wooden chopsticks, which looks clean and neat.

If you go outside the restaurant, you can't see any signs at all. Only when you open the door, you can see the sign hanging at the entrance of the restaurant, with four clear characters written on it: Jinqiu Xiaochao.

She is exactly the proprietress "Aunt Qiu" in the legend of Jinqiu Xiaochao, a private restaurant that went crazy in her circle of friends a few days ago. Of course, Shan Jingqiu knows nothing about this title, otherwise she would definitely pick her up. Her sharp kitchen knife took the lives of those who dared to call her auntie!

During the half-month recuperation life in this world, Shan Jingqiu had thought carefully about the main task entrusted to her by Yuanshen before she died: Yuanshen wanted her daughter to be happy, and let her daughter know that their mother loved her deeply. watching them. And this is not a short-term task.

Thinking carefully about the few memories of the original body, in fact, at the beginning, the Jin family could not have been more harmonious. In the end, a large part of the tragedy of the three Jin family sisters came from the sudden death of her husband, the family background in the sunset, and The heroine with peculiar three views.

But being unable to break away from the requirements set by the original body and the oppressive feeling that the tragedy of the original world is about to begin made her give up all the plans that required long-term management and seek the fastest way.

Unfortunately, before Shan Jingqiu became a reincarnation, she was just an ordinary white-collar worker, and she didn't have any great ability to turn things around.

Fortunately, the novice welfare points offered by the garbage system before playing dead can still be used to buy the cheapest skills in the system store after deducting the points requirements for entering the world.

Thinking of the few skills she has arranged in ascending order of purchase points, even after a long time, she is still speechless.

Calligraphy·Elementary, Painting·Elementary, Chess-playing·Elementary...even driving·Elementary, God knows what driving elementary is.

Among the various skills, she is really picky!

However, she is well versed in the techniques of targeted poverty alleviation, and it is said that food is the most important thing for the people. She still chooses culinary skills, elementary, and pushes a small cart to sell snacks outside, so she can always earn some money to subsidize her family.

But maybe it's because there must be a way before the car reaches the mountain, or maybe it's the last conscience of the garbage system, the culinary skills and junior level are much better than she imagined.

All the skills in the space mall are divided into the third and third grades of high school. Of course, some skills that are very powerful just by their names are obviously divided into more small skills.

According to Shan Jingqiu's experiments and conjectures, the culinary skills she has learned and the elementary level can be summarized as "proficiency in home cooking". Presumably, the intermediate level and advanced level should be corresponding skills similar to court cuisine.

But even so, every home-cooked dish she makes will automatically play the BGM of the Chinese Little Master in her mind when she tastes it. She just feels that there are countless delicacies in the world, which is addictive.

So after her health improved, she and her daughter Lingzhu started a restaurant called Jin's Xiaochao, which was later known as Jinqiu Xiaochao. It's okay, he has always taken care of the meals at home, and later Lingzhu was responsible for delivering food between home and the hospital when he was ill. Therefore, when Shan Jingqiu showed his amazing cooking skills, the three daughters only felt that everyone was in charge at that time. The mother's talent was never discovered.

Of course, at that time, the four women soldiers never thought that this small restaurant would develop to this extent later.

"Mom, all six tables are still full tonight. If the box is private, Wang will always bring someone." Jin Lingzhu, who was still wearing an apron, walked out of the back kitchen and leaned against her mother who was sitting lazily and wandering away. She didn't want to know the news, so she said it ruthlessly.

Sure enough, when Shan Jingqiu heard the news, her ears drooped like a puppy born on her head, and she exuded a frustrated and evasive atmosphere. She obviously heard the words but ignored them, as if she could escape the busy night in this way .

Jin Lingzhu looked at her mother, her gentle face unconsciously filled with a smile.

My mother has become younger and younger recently, always acting coquettishly and self-willed, saying that old children are old children, but my mother is as self-willed as a child before she is old.

But she was not at all impatient.

After her father passed away, Lingzhu fell into a daze and panic for a while. At that time, the restaurant was neglected in management and even the master chef who was in charge of the kitchen with her father had left. She was not good at cooking, and the dishes she made could not win back the old customers. Heart, day after day, even making ends meet seems to be a matter of reluctance.

Looking at her two younger sisters who were not yet married and had just entered college, Lingzhu once felt that the burden on her shoulders was unbearable. Before her father passed away, her mother always talked about if she could find a promising man who had a car and a house, and could It would be nice to help my sister... Even she unconsciously had such an idea, if only there was such a person who could help her.

Jin Lingzhu once thought that there was such a person in her life, and that was Wang Qimeng.

Of course, such unrealistic fantasies came to an end long ago when my father was still ill.

Not long after her father left, Lingzhu heard about Wang Qimeng's many blind dates under the arrangement of her mother. While she was busy with her mother, she heard that he was married. Of course, it was impossible for her not to know This news, after all, for Ms. Wang, being able to recognize pearls with discerning eyes and preventing her pearl son from finding her fish-eyed pearls is a good thing worthy of 360 degrees of publicity.

Lizhi Hutong is very short.

The sound insulation effect of the old house is not good.

The voices from the Wang's house at the opposite door pierced her ears, and every time she dragged her tired body back home, she could hear the words said at the top of her voice.

"Tsk tsk, old Wang, look at the new wife I've found. Her parents plan to pay our son a down payment. You know, some people don't even think about saving such a down payment!"

"Look, how well this daughter-in-law is found, our son will save at least 20 years of struggle!"

"Our precious daughter-in-law doesn't need to be subsidized by our family. In the future, all the things in her family will be reserved for my good grandson!"

...

Lingzhu knew every sentence and meant something.

She was so sad then. I even thought for a while, even if I find a rich man and marry like this, then I can show up in the alley with my head up and chest out, and tell Mama Wang, look, I, Lingzhu, have many people who are willing to subsidize and support me. Take care, I also despise your poor son.

Almost went the wrong way.

But the mother who obviously had the same idea suddenly changed.

She pulled herself almost stationed in a restaurant, went to the wholesale market at the other end of the city early in the morning to squeeze through the crowds, bought the freshest and cheapest vegetables, and even had to think carefully about a radish, originally because The mother who has a small fortune in the family and loves face even ran outside the restaurant and yelled to try the food. She wiped the table and washed the dishes by herself.

But this day was busy day by day, and my heart, which was originally floating in the clouds and didn't know where to go, settled down to the ground bit by bit.

Lingzhu still remembers that at that time, she was busy until eight or nine o'clock every night. After her sister finished class, the four of them packed up together until nearly ten o'clock. If it is four, mother will go directly to the door, with one hand on her hips, shaking the fan, and shouting loudly to the closed door:

"Are you saying that the world is going downhill and people's hearts are not old? Why are there so many men who eat soft rice these days~ so many~"

"If you say a thief, you know that if you steal money from others, you have to be caught and locked up. Why do some men feel honored to move money from other people's homes these days?"

"Tsk tsk, in ancient times, men who asked their wives for money to buy a house or a car would have stuck in the door backwards! In modern times, it's packaged. Men would cheat money and call it capable! I think they just have no backbone!"

She even made up a song with the tune of "You Are Ruthless": "I said he is really ruthless, and he is good at cheating money! If you ask your wife for money to buy a house, you will be proud~" She sang even louder and louder even though she was out of tune. I don't feel embarrassed.

As soon as Ms. Wang wanted to show her head, she could always reply with a voice eight notes higher: "Why, why are you angry with men who eat soft rice? You mean your Ah Meng eats soft rice! God! , I really can't imagine how you Ah Meng became such a person!"

Every time Jin Lingzhu heard those words, she would subconsciously tighten her heart, and slowly relieved herself from her mother's words. Later, she couldn't help but laugh out loud at her mother's singing.

Later, the business of the restaurant was getting better and better, and my mother's lazy look came back again. She tried her best to reduce the long queue of customers, and repeatedly raised the price but could not refuse the flock of customers. Later, Jinqiu Xiaochao even ordered Strange rules--

The door opens at 5:30 every night, six tables and one box are received (reservation required), and the menu is written on the blackboard (optional).

The tyrannical three rules are still full of business every night, and even recently, after being headlined by the official account, the reservation has already arrived four months later.

The income of a high-priced limited restaurant is beyond the imagination of many people. Lingzhu, who is in charge of the family account book, was surprised to find that before she knew it, even the money spent on her father's medical treatment was returned, and her savings became more and more abundant.

Holding the account book that day, I happily told my mother that she was slowly packing up the dishes for the evening without looking back.

"At the beginning, I couldn't think about it. You said that your father left as soon as he said and left nothing. What's the use of feelings? The four of us, mother and daughter, have to eat and drink. You have to study, get married, and get married. Can the relationship survive? In this life, nothing is missing, only a little money, but this little money is going to crush our family!"

"Originally, my mother thought about it too, so I thought it would be a success. I'll just find you a rich man! Lingzhu's mother said that she didn't want to poke your heart. At that time, my mother was so angry with Wang Yuhong. God is good, why should she dislike you? If you dislike you, you are not allowed to dislike you, because no one in our family has money!"

"But what do you do if you don't have money? Sell the three of you for money? Mom really thought it was good at the time. You said you could find a good husband's family for the three of you. Wouldn't it be nice for a man to have money in the future?"

"But I also have to thank Wang Yuhong. Mom, I am not reconciled. I think my daughter is so good, why should she be bullied by her? I will save a lot of money for the three of you, so that you can marry in a good manner, as long as you find someone you like. Man, just raise your head and chest up and pull him in front of Mom, and say Mom, I like him! As long as you are sincere, Mom Qian will pat her chest and say, Mom has plenty, and Mom doesn't make money by selling her daughter!"

"Like your dad, I blamed him for not being able to grow old with me, but we have such a good relationship, and we have never blushed in this life. I thought, what if my daughter finds a man who is not satisfied because of money?" What about it? Mom hopes that the three of you will find someone you like, and you won’t be picked and picked. If you’re not having a good day, you’ll come back to Mom. In this world, Mom will favor you! My daughter is the most OK!"

...

Shan Jingqiu said a lot that day, and every sentence reached Lingzhu's heart.

It was also from that moment that those messy thoughts were completely rooted out of my heart.

Look, I have a mother who loves me the most in the world. She is a philistine, but she only wants her daughter to find a favorite man.

Whether it's right or wrong, she put her arms around her waist to protect herself in front of her.

"One of the six tables reserved in the evening is a new customer, Ms. Fang, and the rest are old customers. Mom, here is the reservation book. You can wait and see. I asked in advance. There are no taboos for taste. You can see how to set the menu ?”

"Well, Cordyceps Flower Duck Soup/Lotus Pork Belly Soup is optional, twice-cooked pork, marinated platter, sweet and sour pork loin... let's start with these, choose a few from the usual expensive menu and write it on it, so that they don't want to eat expensive ones ..."

Shan Jingqiu pretended not to hear it just now, but now she quickly picked up the menu, and quickly rushed into the kitchen to prepare.

Looking at her mother who instantly regained her vitality, the corners of Lingzhu's mouth curled up.

Just like every dish in this restaurant is full of homely atmosphere and fireworks, as long as my mother is standing there alive and well, she will feel very stable in her heart, and this day will be enjoyable.

Looking at the busy figure in the restaurant, her thoughts danced.

Now the only regret of the three of them in private is that their mother has lost a lot of weight in order to make money for the family. If possible, they hope to bring their mother back to her happy and fat little by little.

Shan Jingqiu, who managed to lose weight successfully:? ? ? ?

Shan Jingqiu, as a single woman in the new era, has enjoyed a long time of living alone. Not to mention her suite on the 23rd floor, the sound insulation is top-notch. This inexplicable cry is too inappropriate Common sense, right?

She tried her best to raise her heavy eyelids and looked out. First, the dazzling light made her frown uncontrollably, then she blinked hard again, and finally saw everything around her clearly——

Although the ceiling is also white, the rather simple and unadorned energy-saving light tubes on it are definitely not to her taste. With a glance, you can see the size of the room in the corner, and you can see the size of the room when you turn your head slightly. The three strange girls who are crying beside me, they don't look very old, but they are obviously never seen before, all the scenes point to the terrible answer, not to mention the mattress that seems to be within reach of the stiff hands From the tactile sensation, she didn't use that mahjong mat eight hundred years ago!

For her, who is deeply addicted to novels and TV dramas, the truth is now clearly revealed.

If it wasn't a dream, it was because she really traveled through time as the novel said!

Not knowing how to react, she quickly closed her eyes and pretended she was still in a coma before the two who were crying so hard could react.

Shan Jingqiu racked her brains and couldn't figure out what she did wrong to be arrested here. Just now, the clear touch under her body and the unmistakable pain on the back of her head let her know that this was not a person at all. Dream.

Of course, when she read novels when she was a girl, she also had a thousand and one dreams of Mary Sue.

However, these are all in the past. The 32-year-old Ms. Shan Jingqiu said that she has a car, a house and savings, and the days of being single are very happy. Why is she caught and time-traveled for no reason?

Thinking of the novels I've read, the heroine who bumped her head and time travels can go back to the past after bumping her head again, and suddenly has a plan in her heart.

Maybe……

"I think the idea in your mind will probably not succeed." A voice from nowhere reverberated in my mind, and suddenly the crying that was still in my ear became distant, but it was this inexplicable cold mechanical voice Very clear.

"You can call me Jinjiang System 008."

What kind of inexplicable Jinjiang system is still 008, why don't you say that you are 007! She subconsciously complained frantically.

The more flustered the faster the thoughts, the mind was full of irrelevant thoughts.

"Very good, now it seems that your mental endurance meets our requirements." 008 is a rookie system from Three Thousand Worlds. Although its number is 008 with single digits, at first glance it seems to be in a very high position , but in fact it is in the period of trial operation, no matter how you pretend to be a veteran, it can't hide the fact that it is a novice.

The unreasonable world view and extreme encounters set by many web stories have made the world of these stories on the verge of damage. The characters living in the stories have produced their own souls day after day. At this time, the system uses random selection A part of obsessive and determined souls are devoted to the story world to fulfill the soul wishes that are on the verge of dissipating, and then absorb the soul's obsession to feed back into the world, making the world stable.

As for the system numbered 008, it has another name...

"Host, you can also call me a good mother system."

The moment this unreliable name appeared, Shan Jingqiu's jaw almost dropped. In the first thirty-two years of her life, she had never been a mother, nor had a mother who gave her children enough love. Not to mention being a good mother, how to be a mother is a fantasy to her.

Not to mention that she, who thinks she will always be 18 mentally, will definitely reject the fact that she has suddenly been upgraded to a mother-level role.

While she was still thinking wildly, the cold mechanical voice did not stop the annoying chatter.

"Every time you arrive in a different space, host, you can choose to leave the world or stay in the world to the end after completing the corresponding tasks. After accumulating enough points, you can leave the system world and return to the beginning..."

"What if I choose to decline?"

"Then it will be wiped out."

The categorical words seemed to be without any hesitation, which almost drove her to the peak of anger. When it was her turn to read the novel, the settings that she thought were reasonable and reasonable turned into anger at the mercy of others. Even ten thousand golden fingers could not compare to her simplicity Who would be willing to be involved in this kind of strange world travel inexplicably?

"I'm sorry, 008 system, did you bring me here with my consent or something? Just kill it? Well, just kill it, don't wait!"

After she threw down her harsh words angrily, she didn't want to look at the damn system again. This kind of attitude of pulling people and killing them made Shan Jingqiu, who was soft but not tough, very impatient. Everyone has the desire, but to be bought and sold like this?

hehe.

"Host, it's not us who wiped you out, but...you." The voice whirling around in the empty world sounded a bit weird, and what she said next made her heart burn with anger just now Instant cooling, "Due to your body's own genetic heart disease, you should have died of a sudden myocardial infarction this morning."

Shan Jingqiu seemed to suddenly see herself lying on the big bed at home with a pale face and pale lips, and even after staring for a long time, there was no movement caused by the slightest breath.

Although I wanted to comfort myself that this might be another inexplicable deception, my rationality told me that maybe all of this was true.

Yes, she's always had genetic heart problems, and that's a big reason why she chooses to be alone.

"After you refuse the mission, we will put your soul into your original body..."

"Then my body is dead, so what I'm facing is death?"

"Is such that."

"Then what if I can complete the task and accumulate enough points?"

"Then the system will repair your body and allow you to return to a healthy life."

...

After a long silence, Shan Jingqiu didn't know how to react. After all, what happened today has far exceeded her imagination.

Falling into the boundless darkness and tranquility, there are many scenes that appear repeatedly in my mind. I once thought that I would be calm in the face of death, but when I really faced the possibility of death, my heart was filled with disbelief. The infinite nostalgia of life.

Thinking of not making a good will, I don’t know how the things left behind will be distributed...

Thinking of never explaining, the corpse might rot and smell hideous at home...

Thinking that there are still many things that I haven't explained clearly, I have to tell my friends...

All kinds of thoughts came to her at once.

The system named 008 seems to know how to read minds, but suddenly it made another sound: "When you travel around the world, you can exchange the corresponding skills from the system. Once the skills are exchanged and learned successfully, they will not be erased..."

"Of course, technologies beyond the times and abilities beyond reality will not be on the exchange list."
