Chapter 440 Dismantling and Setting Up Stages: The Child's Idea to Exchange for Spirit Stones
"Delicacy from the Celestial Realm?"
"This this......"
Grand Tutor Zhou looked on incredulously, and his hands trembled uncontrollably.
Grandfather Zhou was even more exaggerated, his eyes wide open, it was tiring to watch.
cough!
Master Zhou coughed lightly, trying to help his elder out of the predicament.
"Grandfather, Father, you two should try it. When it comes to food, the most important thing is to fill your stomach; everything else is secondary."
"Yes, Father is right."
Zhou Ruirui, the little devil, followed up with enthusiastic flattery, "Great-grandfather, grandfather, Ruirui thinks these dishes are very filling. One bite will make me happy for days."
"The key is that I still feel great after eating, and then I can run up and down the valley several times."
Zhou Ruirui inadvertently started boasting.
"You're just bragging. You've gone back and forth several times, and you need to rest several times for each round. Hahaha, you're really exaggerating." Yao Xiaomi retorted with a laugh.
"Exactly, he brags without thinking, and in the end we have to drag him along." Wen Chengyu chimed in without a care in the world.
"Hey, you two, what's wrong with you? Why are you digging up my secrets like this? Humph, I'm not playing with you anymore, Rui Rui, we're not playing with them anymore, humph!" Wen Qing frowned and challenged.
"That's right, we won't let them ride the flying boat anymore. We'll deduct points. When we see our master, we'll make sure he deducts points from them. They're not friendly to their sisters. If they get negative points, we'll give them two zeros, hmph!" Zhou Ruirui put her hands on her hips and declared domineeringly, her little face turning red with anger.
Hoo ho ho!
Unexpectedly, the children started arguing over the dishes.
This was the first time Wenwen had ever seen two little girls unite and unleash their power; wow, flower baskets and flying boats had become their means of coercion.
Wenwen suppressed a laugh and gestured for the elders to eat while watching.
The elders also automatically ignored the children's quarrel and let them jump around as long as they didn't disturb everyone's enjoyment of the food.
The adults don't care who suffers the loss; the children should handle their own affairs.
Yao Xiaomi and Wen Chengyu, two little brats whose lives were in someone else's hands, exchanged a glance, reached a tacit understanding, and immediately apologized.
"My two sisters, we were wrong. Please forgive your brother for speaking without thinking."
“Sister, brother did this unintentionally, it wasn’t intentional. We should be punished, we should be punished.”
"We should still take the airship; we can't let a small matter ruin our team spirit."
"Brother, we'll be more careful next time and definitely won't expose your secrets. We promise."
"Yes, I promise to keep your secrets completely hidden. No one will utter a word. Sister, we can still take the flying boat, right?"
Yao Xiaomi and Wen Chengyu made repeated promises and pleaded with them, appearing humble and subservient, before Zhou Ruirui and Wen Qing finally let them go.
After the children finished arguing and quieted down completely, the group belatedly realized that everyone else had started eating while they were foolishly arguing. What kind of behavior was this?
That's incredibly stupid!
Why are you arguing before eating? I'm not hungry.
"What's wrong? Have you two finished arguing?" Wenwen asked calmly with a smile.
The children's faces turned red, and they looked embarrassed, lowering their heads and remaining silent.
Wenwen didn't blame them. Pointing to the table full of dishes, she said regretfully, "You don't even remember the saying 'don't talk while eating' or 'don't talk while sleeping'? It seems we still need to continue this school!"
“Grandfather, what do you think?” Wenwen turned to ask Wen Yuanqian.
“Yes, let’s continue going to school.” Wen Yuanqian agreed, “We must.”
The children instantly tensed up, their ears all perking up.
After a few breaths, Master Zhou said, "Starting tomorrow, you will all come to the clan school to study. You must not be lazy, skip classes, or be naughty. After school at the clan school every day, come here to cultivate. Every ten days, I will come to give you a small test."
Master Zhou's tone was low and serious, "Can you do it?"
The children held their breath, wanting to ask questions but too afraid to, and could only answer sullenly, "Yes."
His hesitant, drawn-out answers sounded weak and listless.
"What's wrong? Have you gotten over your hunger? Why are you answering so quietly?"
Master Zhou was displeased. "You can ask your questions now. We won't wait any longer."
Upon hearing the Master's words, several children raised their hands, all of them with questions.
“Speak one by one, there’s no need to argue, everyone has the right to ask questions. Wen Chengmo, you go first.”
Master Zhou began calling out names one by one.
Wen Chengmo: "Master, do we travel to and from the city every day? Leaving early and returning late?"
Master Zhou: "No, I live in your maternal grandfather's estate and go to and from the school with him every day."
Wen Chengjing: "Master, how often can you go home?"
"I can go back on my day off."
Ren Jinning: "Master, is this the only place we can cultivate?"
"Where do you want to go?" Master Zhou asked, raising an eyebrow.
Ren Jinning tentatively suggested, "Could we occasionally find a river or a lake or something?"
Master Zhou pondered for a moment and replied, "It can be arranged according to the progress of cultivation."
Zhou Ruirui: "Dad, oh no, Master, can we fly boats through these mountains?"
"In principle, it is not allowed."
After he finished speaking, Master Zhou saw several disappointed faces. He continued, "After dark, you can drive, but you must use a concealment talisman."
Wen Chengyu: "Master, we don't know how to draw talismans?"
Yao Xiaomi: "Master, how much does a concealment talisman cost?"
Look, their questions reveal their true nature.
One seeks solutions from within, the other from without.
Master Zhou looked at the two number one troublemakers and answered them patiently.
“Cheng Yu, you can learn to draw if you don’t know how. As long as you want to learn, the Master can teach you.”
"Xiaomi, Concealment Talisman, one spirit stone per talisman, no gold or silver accepted, only spirit stones accepted, no credit."
Well, this is like having their throats grabbed. Upon hearing this, Wen Chengyu and Yao Xiaomi immediately slumped their shoulders.
Just then, Wen Qing took out several spiritual plants from her storage bag, and the little girl asked Wen Wen directly in her clear, childlike voice.
"Sister, these are some spirit herbs I recently planted at home. Although they are of low grade, I remember you said that one of these spirit herbs is worth three spirit stones in Xingyu City. There are five here, so I'll make a discount. I only need ten spirit stones. Sister, please take these spirit herbs. You can resell them and make a little more money, hehehe."
After the little girl finished speaking, she made an adorable face!
Wenwen was shocked...
Nani?
what is this? Forced buying and selling?
Wenwen looked at Master Zhou in disbelief, her eyes seeming to ask: What kind of operation is this? Should she accept it or refuse?
The key point is, she doesn't lack this kind of spiritual herb, does she? And it's even cheaper.
She finally realized who this little brat resembled: just like her third uncle, he knew how to do business.
Wenwen turned to look at Wen Qikang, her eyes seeming to say: Third Uncle, Sixth Sister is a promising talent, she's good at making money, you'd better take good care of her.
Just as Wenwen was hesitating whether or not to accept these spiritual herbs, Wenqing's words broke her guard.
"Sister, I will plant many, many spiritual plants in the future. I will do my best as long as the family needs them."
Look how well this little girl knows how to manipulate people and how eloquent she is.
The atmosphere had been built up to this point; it would be unreasonable for her not to accept it.
Just as Wenwen took out the spirit stones to prepare for the transaction, Wen Yuanqian spoke up to stop her.
"Wen'er, no!"
