[Comprehensive novel] Almighty Lydia

"I'm going to cook now!!"

Lydia ran downstairs like a mad rabbit, heading straight for the kitchen.

She went downstairs thumping, apparently startling some people.

The domestic dog walked past, wagging its head and tail. Mary, who was playing the piano, paused and withdrew her hand.

"Hey, Lydia," complained Kitty, who was sitting next to her, "be quiet, you're disturbing us!"

Lydia turned around abruptly and stuck out her tongue at Kitty, "Kitty, I'll play with you later."

"How many times have I stressed, call me Catherine," she said bluntly, "I really don't know what you are up to. I heard that there are new dresses in the store, and I want to take you to have a look."

She pointed to the pretty dresses and hats piled up on the edge of the table.

Lydia had already run into the kitchen and didn't hear what she said behind her.

But of course, she has little interest in these things now.

Lydia walked another flight of stairs, walked through the long corridor into the kitchen, and went straight to the simplest vegetable salad on the side.

"Honey," Mrs. Wani came over softly, "What are you doing here? There are no pearls and gems you like here. Go outside, and be careful not to set fire to you."

The chubby Mrs. Waney wore a long gray dress and looked kind. She was a cook hired by the Bennet family and had a good hand.

"Madam, can I try making vegetable salad?" Lydia begged, "Please, lovely lady, dear lady, just teach me."

She clasped her hands together and looked earnestly at Mrs. Wa Ni.

"Okay, okay," Mrs. Wa Ni relented helplessly, "Vegetable salad is not very difficult anyway, look, like this, and then like this."

She briefly demonstrated the process of pouring the salad and mixing it well.

Lydia took her salad and tried it a little.

Stirred didn't look too good, but barely ok.

She quietly took a sip with the fork next to it, oh, it's delicious!

"It's delicious, this is my unique secret recipe," Mrs. Vani rubbed the top of her hair, "Go and play, I'll get you a biscuit."

She handed over a plate of cookies, "If you make more, you can eat some first."

【Host, it's useless to be lazy.This time it is not included in the mission, please continue to work hard~]

Lydia turned green.

"No ma'am," she pushed the plate away, "Is there anything else I can help with? I'm free right now and I can do some work."

"Honey, are you sure?" Mrs. Wa Ni thought for a while, then clapped her thick palms, "The potatoes we will eat later haven't been peeled yet!"

"Okay," Lydia replied.

She worked hard for a long time, peeling, washing vegetables, and making mashed potatoes, and finally waited for the system's reply.

【Ding!Complete the task, get gorgeous quality ribbon raw material*1, embroidery blueprint*1]

Lydia breathed a sigh of relief, put away the hard-earned vegetables on the side, and drained the water.

"Thank you ma'am," Lydia turned her head and kissed Mrs. Wa Ni, and ran to the side with her skirt up, "I'll go back to my room and come down to eat later!"

"Lydia, you're really good," Mrs. Vani touched her face and laughed dumbfoundedly, "Go, I'll call you for lunch."

Lydia went upstairs slowly, quickly locked the door and reached out her hand quickly.

"Where's my stuff?" Lydia asked the system, "Come on, where is it?"

She seemed to be afraid that if she said it too late, the reward would fly away immediately.

【Host, you should think about your words. 】

"What are you talking about?" Lydia thought for a while, then changed to a more respectful tone, "Excuse me, Mr. System, where is the thing you promised to give me?"

The system didn't know whether the host was really stupid or not, and felt that the phrase "Mr. System" caused it to drop data all over the place.

【What do you think your parents will think if you hold a ribbon and pattern from nowhere? 】

"Of course you look with your eyes open," Lydia said without thinking, "otherwise how else can you see?"

The system choked.

[Don't you think this will be misleading? 】The system gently reminded,【Isn't it strange that an unmarried lady got a mysterious ribbon? 】

"If this is the case, you don't have to worry. I am so beautiful and have many suitors," Lydia said bluntly. "Isn't it normal for these people to give me things? Mom will definitely be very happy." I'm happy, after all, this ribbon is very expensive at first glance."

[But if you accept this rashly, will others think you are frivolous? 】

"I just don't have this," Lydia spread her hands, "They also say I'm frivolous. I don't care what they do. Ugly is jealous of beautiful people, tsk, a coward who dare not even confront me face to face."

Lydia is the kind of lively and outgoing girl by nature.

She just loves chatting, prom, all things sparkly ruffles and bows, and chatting with handsome boys.

Who doesn't love pretty things?

If this is frivolity, it is too shallow.

【...Don't change the concept, I mean how you tell your parents about it, if you don't handle it well, it will ruin your reputation. 】

"Whatever," Lydia got the ribbon, kissed her twice, and then she had an idea, "You said before, if I take over the mission from you, I can take care of the little boy, isn't it true? ?”

[Yes, but you have to work hard to get rich. We only provide physical assistance bonuses, which can be exchanged with blueprints. 】

In other words, it means that the finished product cannot be obtained later.

"What kinds of things are there?" She frowned, "Can't your system be more generous?"

[Sorry, no.As a system dad, you can do whatever you want. 】

Lydia clicked her tongue in dissatisfaction.

She carefully hid the ribbon at the bottom of the closet, then asked for the embroidery drawing, picked up the quill on the side and copied a copy.

"Things are for outsiders to see, right?" she asked.

【Yes.But logically speaking, shouldn't good things be exclusive to one person? 】

The system is a bit confused about the host's thoughts.

"But my embroidery work is not good." Lydia turned her thread basket upside down and covered it with a layer of color matching cloth. "I will give this drawing to Jane. She can make many different beautiful patterns." shape, I can only sew an ugly flower."

Giving this to Jane can not only reveal how Jane embroiders, but also make Jane change into more and better-looking things, isn't it good?

Does she look like such a silly person? ?

[You won, host. 】

The system said dryly.

After so long, I finally found the advantages of the host, haha.

Very self-aware.

【Did you never worry about not being able to get married? 】

The system asked a little puzzled.

"Don't worry," Lydia buried her head in tidying up the wire baskets, and replied as she worked, "I'm so good-looking, every rich bachelor needs a wife like this."

[But with your dowry, host, I'm afraid you won't be able to pick any good man]

The system analyzes slowly.

[If, I mean, if your husband is a rich but ugly old man, will you marry him? 】

"It's impossible!" Lydia sneered, "Why would I fall in love with this kind of man? My future husband must be a wealthy, handsome and capable gentleman."

[Then why don't such a person choose a beautiful, elegant, and more excellent lady as his wife? 】

"Because I'm pretty," she said of course.

[But you are so pretty, where can you see it?There are many rich and dignified ladies who are prettier than you, not to mention beautiful girls in the slums. 】

The system continued.

"What character are you referring to?" Lydia said with a sneer, "If you're talking about the character of gossip, then I'm obviously not as good as them."

[Host, if recklessness is counted as character, you can defeat 90.00% of the girls.What's more, even if you marry such a person because of your beauty, he is only because of your appearance, then the host, once you get old and frail, how do you know that he won't abandon you and find a new love? 】

The system is brainwashed.

"How is this possible," Lydia retorted, "Isn't my father and mother a couple like this? Dad didn't have a new love either."

【Do you think your father is very happy? 】

The system said in disbelief.

"That's not true," Lydia mused. "I always say 'mistakes I made when I was young', and complain to us that my mother is not good here and that is not good. It really doesn't look like happiness."

[So, if a man is reliable, a sow can climb a tree.A good character, enough money, and a comfortable and interesting life can only be achieved if you work hard on your own.When the time comes, whether to guard one man or choose ten handsome little gentlemen to live, is it up to you? 】

"You're right, but I really don't know how to work hard," Lydia spread on the bed, "I'm not good at painting, I'm not good at literature, I don't like writing, and I hate reading current affairs. I'm such a boring girl , I can only occasionally chat and joke with gentlemen to make me feel flattered."

Otherwise, who likes to dance? It's tiring and hard, and the heels have to be worn out.

It's all because these people are handsome and good-looking.

[The Almighty System is here for this.Host, the system is not here to interfere with your life, the system is here to help you and solve problems. 】

The system finally felt like it had a breakthrough.

"What's the problem?" Lydia sat up abruptly, "I work, get a lot of pay, and then get rich, choose ten or eight handsome guys?"

【Do not. 】

System explanation.

[Host labor, I convert these labors into hard work values, and then reward the host according to the hard work values.Hosts learn skills from rewards, which in reality can be turned into pounds. 】

"What's the reward?" Lydia asked enthusiastically, "Is there a teacher? A tutor? The one at Charlotte's house?"

Charlotte is Elizabeth's best friend. They usually get bored with each other when they meet.

【have.Both online and offline, that is to say, it can help the host find a way to hire a tutor who actually exists, or the system can provide a platform for the host to study virtually. 】

"Can my older sisters come too?" Lydia asked the system with her chin on her shoulders, "Where are Mom and Dad?"

[If the host is willing, of course.But the system's suggestion is not to, because not everyone can accept the existence of the system. 】

"Then call Jane, Elizabeth, Mary and Kitty," Lydia's small calculations crackled again.

Elizabeth is so smart, she must learn things quickly and well.

Jane and Mary liked new things best, and Kitty couldn't leave them behind, they must be very happy.

When they have learned it, can't they teach her?

【...The host never thought that if the host revealed these things to your sisters, would they replace your unique status? 】

The system is a little confused.

After all, no host has ever thought of sharing the system.

Regardless of whether it is from the consideration of protecting oneself or ensuring one's own benefits, the previous hosts have firmly guarded this secret.

Even to the person next to the pillow.

"No," Lydia retorted, "Why do you think so?"

She dangled her legs, "My sister, everyone is talented."

The afternoon sun shone into Lydia's room, casting a beautiful golden glow on the high curtains and Lydia lying on the bed.

"The words are nice and the person is interesting," she lowered her voice a little bit. "If because of my selfishness, they miss this opportunity and fail to get a good marriage, it will be so uncomfortable."

She actually knew that her mother wanted the marriageable Jane and Elizabeth to marry a good family, so as to help their sisters.

I didn't think there was anything wrong before, but after hearing the system's assumptions, Lydia really thought about her sister.

Not to mention, the sisters also learned that if she couldn't get married, she could still rely on her sister's help to support herself!

And if the sisters are having a bad time and she has to help, then don't be too shameful.

Bring your sisters to study together, save time and effort, but a huge profit!

[Host, don't think about it, let's take a look at your mission. 】

The system ruthlessly interrupted Lydia's self-moving.

[A few more people come to learn, and you have to pay several times more tuition fees, 30 hard work points per person per class.Your hard work is only 10 points from cooking before, I'm afraid it's not enough for your sister to serve with you. 】

"But how long does it take to save up for a class?" Lydia almost wanted to cry after hearing this.

She exaggeratedly rubbed her arm, "Why do I have so many sisters!"

What are you talking about so early? ?

So much hard work worth it!It will definitely not fall from the sky!

[The system provides two methods, one is to complete the task in real life, and the other is to complete the task in Africa. 】

"Go to Africa?" She remembered the fear of being dominated by lions and mud pits, "I don't want to!!!"

Africa is dirty and smelly, she would rather wash it a hundred times at home than go to Africa!

[Does the host really not listen to the reward first? 】

System temptation.

"I don't need to go after hearing that, right?" Lydia confirmed.

【right. 】

The system waited for Lydia to nod before staggering down the report.

【Establish a camp to ensure that you can survive in the virtual world.One hundred for a day of life, and forty for the first time the mission goal is achieved.Every time you enter Africa, the time is night, and it will not affect the relationship between the host and your family, and entering Africa to work is more like a dream, and your body will not feel tired in reality. 】

"Oh, that's fine," Lydia thought dazedly.

Give one hundred at a time, save time and effort, and give extra points every time you reach a new goal...

Much cheaper than washing dishes.

etc--

"So you asked me to go to Africa on purpose???" Lydia suddenly raised her voice, "Is there any benefit for you if I go to Africa?"
