Game World: Am I a toy of the system?
Chapter 190 A Girl from the Same Village
Bai Meng moved the beer box into the house, took out a bottle and put it in the refrigerator, then opened the paper cup, picked up a pot of water and returned to the yard.
When he came to the yard, Bai Meng glanced at the door and saw that the black MPV had already left.
At this time, the aunts and sisters started chattering again, and while Bai Meng was pouring water for them, they asked him what was going on.
"When I was going home yesterday, I saved a drowning girl on the bridge. Those should be her family members." Bai Meng explained again.
A plump middle-aged woman muttered, "There is such a thing, I haven't even heard of it."
Bai Meng: "When I came back yesterday, it was already around seven o'clock. Only a few old men and women from the village saw me, as well as Doctor Li from the clinic."
Then he put down the kettle and placed the remaining paper cups on the table. "Mom, there's still a kettle of water in the room. I'm going to return the tricycle first. Is there anything else you want to take?"
Kong Juan was still feeling emotional after facing that domineering old man. Seeing Bai Meng was about to go out again, she hurriedly said, "Wait until it's cooler before returning. Go inside and rest for a while."
"It's just a few steps." Bai Meng waved his hand, walked out of the yard, rode away on his tricycle.
Bai Meng looked ahead calmly; even the scorching sun could not melt the coldness in his eyes.
"System, didn't you say you would guarantee the safety of my family?"
[Please rest assured, this system will fully protect the safety of your family! 】
"That old man has come to my house!"
He is not threatening
"Do me a favor?"
[Do you have money? ]
Bai Meng:... Damn, no!
【despise】
Where did my money go? Don't you know? And you still look down on me! Damn!
Bai Meng was very angry.
Although he couldn't ask the system for help due to his lack of money, Bai Meng had no intention of letting the old guy go.
"You went home and gave my mother a bad look. Just wait for me. If I don't kill you, I will write the word '羽' upside down!"
Ying Yu: ????
After a while, Bai Meng returned to the door of the small shop and shouted, "Xiaojuan, open the door, I'll ride my bike in."
Wen Juan, who was sitting behind the counter, heard the shouting and quickly got up and ran to the yard to open the door.
After Bai Meng rode his bike into the yard and parked it in the shed, Wenjuan closed the gate and bolted it.
The two returned to the store, Bai Meng put the key to the tricycle on the counter and was about to leave.
Wen Juan quickly pulled him back and said, "Brother Bai, don't rush back. Let's sit down and talk for a while."
We grew up together, and when we went to school in town, we walked to and from school together every day.
Although they were in the same group, the two were more familiar with each other because Wenjuan had a better relationship with Bai Lan and they did not separate until they entered high school.
Thinking of the old ladies chatting in the yard, Bai Meng had nothing to do when he went back, and the appointment was not due until tomorrow, so he agreed.
Seeing Bai Meng nod, Wen Juan happily pulled him into the counter, gave him a chair to sit on, and moved a small stool to sit next to him, like a little hamster.
Bai Meng was amused. "Let's sit like this. Can't I watch the store for you?"
Wen Juan blushed as she thought of something. "Just read it. I just need to read a book and review it."
"It's vacation time, but you're still reviewing?" Bai Meng leaned over to look at the book in her arms, and found that it was a high school physics book. He immediately lost interest. In fact, he couldn't understand it. It was almost like reading a book written in a foreign language.
The two of them were sitting at different heights, and Wenjuan was wearing loose clothes, so when Bai Meng lowered her head, she could not only see the book, but also the white color in her collar.
......Bai Meng sat up straight, picked up the small fan on the counter, and asked casually: "How is your study?"
Wen Juan also discovered the problem, her face turned even redder, and she pulled her loose shirt, "Not bad, top ten in the whole school."
"You have been a good student since you were young, much better than Lanlan." Bai Meng sighed when talking about his sister's studies.
Wen Juan: "Lanlan is also a good student, but she is very biased in certain subjects. She is good at math and physics."
Then the two of them started chatting. When someone came in to buy something, Bai Meng helped collect money and give change.
It is convenient to sell things now. Most of the time, payment is made by scanning a QR code. Even in this remote Yulong Village, it is the same. Only occasionally do young children come with money to buy ice cream or drinks.
Those who are a little older will also scan the code, and if they are short of money they will send messages to their parents to ask for it.
After chatting for almost an hour, it was almost 1 o'clock before Bai Meng got up and prepared to go home.
"Brother Bai, wait a minute." Wen Juan walked quickly into the yard and came out with two big watermelons in her arms. "Take them back and try them. They are very sweet."
Bai Meng thought about it and realized that there was no watermelon at home, so he took out his phone and asked, "How much?"
Wen Juan took two large plastic bags, put the watermelons in them, and waved her hand, saying, "These are grown by my uncle's family. They were just delivered this morning. They're free. Take them now."
"I'm so sorry." Bai Meng took the watermelon and thought for a moment before asking, "Why are you the only one at home today?"
"Grandma was feeling a little unwell, so my dad took her to the hospital for a check-up. My mom took my brother and went somewhere." Wenjuan's little face was filled with worry. She was worried about her grandma, but also blamed her mother for not being at home to look after the store.
Bai Meng thought for a moment and asked, "Is that so? Then what are you going to eat for lunch?"
"Just have something to eat. It's so hot and I don't want to cook." Wen Juan felt a little guilty when she said she didn't want to cook. Instant noodles can also be considered cooking.
"My sister cooked a lot of food yesterday. If you don't mind, I'll bring you some at noon." Bai Meng didn't think much about it. It was just a matter of reciprocity.
"The food cooked by Sister Mei is so delicious, how could I dislike it!" Wen Juan said quickly.
"Okay, it's settled. I'll go back first." Bai Meng walked out carrying the watermelon.
Wen Juan was so excited that she escorted him out the door. The young girl was in love and said shyly with a smile, "Then I'll wait for Brother Bai to bring me food at noon, otherwise I'll be hungry."
Bai Meng smiled and said, "I won't forget it. I'm leaving now."
When Bai Meng walked back home carrying two watermelons, he found that the yard was empty, with a pile of watermelon seed shells and peanut shells scattered on the ground.
The family's electric tricycle was parked in the shed. Bai Qiang had just returned from the underground city after selling vegetables, and voices could be heard coming from the house.
Bai Meng thought that all the aunts had left, but when he walked into the house, he found that there were still a few aunts talking in the room.
There were also some fruits and vegetables piled up in the corner, which should have been brought by the aunts, and probably grown at home.
"Aunt Qi, Aunt Yun..." Bai Meng greeted them and walked towards the kitchen carrying a watermelon.
Kong Juan followed him into the kitchen with a strange look on her face. After Bai Meng put down the watermelon, she pulled him aside and asked in a low voice, "I heard from your Aunt Wang that you went to look for Wen Juan?"
"Didn't I go to deliver the tricycle? She was the only one in the store, and we chatted for a while." Bai Meng explained casually.
"Have you been talking for more than an hour?" Kong Juan stared at her son's expression, trying to see something.
Bai Meng smiled helplessly and said, "Mom, what are you thinking about? Xiaojuan is just a little girl. I just want to hide there for some quiet time. I haven't seen her for such a long time."
"I'm glad to know that. Xiaojuan is the same age as your sister and is still in school. Please don't bring harm to her." Kong Juan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her son's affirmative words.
Then he looked at the watermelon on the ground and asked, "Where did you buy the watermelon? It's so big!"
Bai Meng picked up a watermelon, washed it with clean water, and put it on the chopping board. "I didn't buy it. Xiaojuan asked me to bring it back. She said her uncle grew it himself."
Kong Juan had just breathed a sigh of relief, but her breath was instantly lifted again. However, this time she was not worried about what her son might do to others, but rather whether her son might be seduced by someone.
Bai Meng cut half of the watermelon and took it to the main room and put it on the table. "Aunt, eat two pieces of watermelon to quench your thirst."
"Alas, Mengmeng has been sensible since she was young."
"Wow, where did you buy this melon? It doesn't even have seeds and it's so sweet."
"I think it's called Hongda or Hongda. There's a variety in the next town, but they're all sold out of town. They're quite expensive."
Bai Meng smiled, turned back to the kitchen and cut the other half, then sat on a small stool and started eating it in the kitchen.
He doesn't want to deal with those aunts, they are too difficult.
