Chapter 5: Seek some benefits for yourself
After returning home, she did housework first, sweeping and mopping the floor. When the ground was dry, Ye Nai lay on the floor doing crunches and push-ups.
These days, everyone attaches great importance to physical exercise as never before. For no other reason than to be able to run faster than others and survive when encountering danger.
After I finished practicing at home, I put on my shoes and took the skipping rope and went to the corridor outside to continue practicing. I jumped two thousand times and still had the energy to go downstairs and run around the community wall twice, and hang on the horizontal bar for a while.
There is a little greenery in the community. In addition to some trees, there are also wild flowers and grass growing randomly. Ye Nai sprinkles spores on these places while running.
She couldn't practice with the kitchen waste at home, nor with these plants. She had to find out as soon as possible whether her fungus had any other uses besides decomposing organic matter.
Awakening will promote great changes in body functions, such as physical strength, endurance, vision, hearing, smell, taste, speed, etc. The manifestations are different in each person. In Ye Nai's case, it caused spores that are mentally powerful and invisible to the naked eye. , but she can easily control and direct every spore released, ensuring that they land at their designated place.
The released spores sink into the soil and grow mycelium to form clumps of mycelium. They decompose and transform organic matter in the soil over a long period of time, feeding her back energy in a steady stream, keeping her energetic and physically strong. .
After returning home, her younger brothers and sisters who had been playing all day also happened to be back. Ye Nai quickly made dinner and told them to stay at home while she packed up the food and rushed to the hospital.
Her mother successfully completed the task. There was a second-hand wheelchair next to her father's hospital bed. The couple each held a mobile phone and watched short videos, making them laugh.
Ye Nai called her parents, put down the thermos bucket, and sat at the end of the bed to watch her parents eat.
At this time, the patients in the ward were also eating one after another, and their family members accompanying them in bed came and went, which was a bit lively.
Shichen leaned against the end of the bed and sat quietly. Her outstanding mental strength made her keenly aware that someone was looking at her from behind. The feeling made her very uncomfortable.
Ye Nai immediately turned around and stared back.
She thought she was just giving a light warning, but she had no idea that that glance contained a mental attack. The other person was just an ordinary person, so she was so frightened and short of breath by this glare that she almost couldn't breathe.
With lingering fear, the other party turned away, not daring to look again, but he was unwilling to give in. He secretly thought about waiting for them to leave and talk to the parents to see if he could earn matchmaking money. This big man is very agile. Girls of this age are very popular in the dating market. When they get married, they can take care of the housework of the whole family. They are not afraid of being fierce. No matter how fierce a girl of this age is, they are fake and have no lethality. When they meet a truly fierce man, they will know how to behave.
Ye Nai glared and turned back. Although she didn't catch anyone's eyes again, she still felt a chill on her back, as if some malice was brewing.
The mental power was invisibly stimulated, and he scanned around the ward and accurately targeted the family member at the side and behind.
Ye Nai pursed her lips. She couldn't bear it anymore. She couldn't stand it at all. She was staring at him and he was still unconvinced and dared to think wildly.
She moved her fingers secretly and released seven or eight spores, which fell on the opponent under her command and integrated into the body as soon as they touched the skin.
Ye Nai felt no guilt, and the nasty guy who came to her door just happened to test the power of fungi on living people.
After releasing the spores, she waited for her parents to finish eating with an honest look.
Sitting bored, thoughts swirling in her heart, she suddenly thought of the meaning of the awakening badge. I'm afraid it is to protect ordinary people, recognize people by the badge, and don't provoke the awakened ones when they are full, because they don't know what will happen to them. What kind of revenge is coming.
Ye Nai was doing some mental construction for herself with an expressionless face. She is now an awakened person. She has parents and younger siblings at home. She can still empathize with ordinary people, but she can no longer use ordinary people's way of thinking to mix in society.
To put it simply, it was before and now it is perversion.
More than half an hour later, Ye Nai returned home carrying the empty thermos bucket.
At night, she grabbed her brothers and sisters to take a bath one by one. While she was waiting for the washing machine to wash the clothes, her mother Yu Qing came back from the hospital and drove the three younger ones to bed. She called the eldest daughter to talk about it. We will go to the hospital together tomorrow to pick up her dad from the hospital. "Mom, I'm going to school tomorrow, Monday."
"You didn't say anything about the results of the awakening test yesterday. Did you not awaken?"
"Yes. .”
"That's okay. I'll go to school tomorrow to fill out a form and stop studying. Then go to the hospital to meet us and pick up your dad from the hospital."
Her mother Yu Qing had an indifferent look on her eldest daughter's side from the beginning. There was no hope for awakening. Neither her nor her husband's family had ever had an awakened person. She felt that the probability of having an awakened person in her family was too low.
"Okay." Ye Nai didn't argue, her mother's arrangement was still okay, "Give me money to buy a mobile phone, and I'll find a job."
"Your dad has a fracture, you go first Take care of him at home.”
“What can I take care of? Can he take care of himself, change his diapers, and wash his butt? Do you want me to see that? Look and touch?”
"What are you talking about? Are you shameless...?!" Her mother, Yu Qing, was so shocked that she exploded. Is this what a grown-up girl can say?
"Isn't this what you just said? I stay at home to take care of dad. What should I take care of him? Just let him eat and drink, nothing else? Let him feel uncomfortable after he peed? Then I can stay at home. "
Ye Nai spread her hands with an honest face, firmly refusing to admit that she was the one who made her mother angry.
"But your dad has trouble with his legs, and there is no one in the family."
"Then what do you think we should do? He is injured at home, will his salary be reduced? I will have no future since May. There is an adult subsidy, but my monthly expenses will not be less. If I don’t find a job, are you willing to support me?”
Yu Qing, who was furious just now, fell silent. The family was spending money everywhere, so it was really a good question whether to ignore the eldest daughter as a labor force and leave her to work at home.
My husband, Ye Yu, fell off a table while working and was considered a work-related injury. His medical expenses were all covered by work-related injury insurance, so he didn’t have to pay a penny. The labor union at his workplace gave him a nutrition allowance when he came to visit, but During the period of recuperation, the employer only paid a basic salary of 800 yuan, and the eldest daughter became an adult and there was no allowance.
Income has decreased, but living expenses have increased simultaneously. The eldest daughter has no problem finding a job, but she is worried about leaving her injured husband alone at home.
"Let me think about it again."
"Then buy me a mobile phone first." Ye Nai reached out for money.
"How can it be so urgent? Can't wait until tomorrow?"
"You don't even have one thousand cash on hand?"
"Why do you need one thousand? You buy a student phone and add one Why do you need so many mobile phone cards?”
"It's good that I didn't ask for two thousand. Except for two sets of school uniforms, I don't have any serious clothes. The school uniforms are now thin. Have you never noticed that my underwear can be seen in my school uniform pants?"
Ye Nai patted her face.
"You want my face? I run naked every day, what more face do I need?"
