Chapter 78 Children of the Wind


Chapter 78 Children of the Wind

After Chen Nong finished the article last night, he returned home in a daze. When his wife asked him if he had got the medicine, he remembered that the purpose of going to Si Ye Mansion was to get the medicine. Instead of getting the medicine, he inexplicably wrote a low-grade fantasy novel.

Chen Nong felt extremely guilty and wanted to kill him just by thinking about it. Fortunately, when he left Siye's Mansion, the boy in the mansion stuffed a paper bag into his arms and said it was compensation for writing an article.

He hurriedly took the paper bag out of his arms and handed it to his wife. When she opened it, she was surprised. It turned out that there was a pill in the paper bag.

The aroma of the pills is fragrant, and you feel refreshed just by smelling it.

Chen Nong remembered what Master Enlightenment said. The name of Jushou Pill sounded like a good thing. Even if he doubted others, he would not doubt Master Enlightenment’s character, so he called his wife to eat it quickly.

Mrs. Chen glared at him angrily, but her tone was gentle, "How can you just eat such a good thing like this." After saying that, she put it away carefully, and looked at Chen Nong's face with distress, Not long after he walked to the kitchen, he came back with a bowl of medicinal soup for Chen Nong to drink.

When Chen Nong smelled the ginseng, he knew it was the ginseng medicine he had planned to boil for his wife to drink, but he refused to let her drink it.

Mrs. Chen glanced at him, "You don't even look at your own face."

In the end, Chen Nong couldn't convince his wife and drank the bowl of ginseng soup.

During the day, Chen Nong woke up to the smell of rice, changed his clothes and walked out to find that his wife had prepared breakfast. Her face was rosy and healthier and more energetic than before the illness. The same was true for her daughter beside her.

Seeing the changes in his wife and daughter with his own eyes, Chen Nong felt sad, thinking that if he had not distrusted Si Yefu before, he would not have let his wife suffer as much as he did.

At the dinner table, Mrs. Chen kept talking to Chen Meier, and the topics they talked about were all related to Si Yefu.

Mrs. Chen asked Chen Meier about her experience in Siye Mansion. Chen Meier said that she and all the spider children in Siye Mansion were good children protected by Aunt Feng. Aunt Feng was a fairy transformed from the wind. The children guarded by Aunt Feng have become Feng's medicine boys, working hard to collect medicines to save more people.

In Chen Meier's innocent narration, the horrific disaster has become more beautiful, and the strange children have become the embodiment of beauty, making it less difficult to accept.

Mrs. Chen and Chen Nong looked at each other and remained silent.

Chen Meier said: "It's just that every child has a father and mother. The parents will be sad for the lost child, and the child will miss his parents, so as long as the parents come to find the child, Aunt Feng will take care of them. Return the child to them."

The phrase "As long as the parents come to find the child." Chen Nong and his wife have a knot in their throats. They both understand the deeper meaning of this - some parents may not be able to accept a child who has become a monster. They are not sure whether the child can recover, or whether there will be sequelae after recovery, and the rumors that may arise will make some people feel uncomfortable. Selfish and foolish parents choose to abandon their children.

Mrs. Chen had a soft temper and wiped her eyelids emotionally. When she looked up, she found that her husband had burst into tears.

“……”

She was so stunned that she forgot to feel sad.

Chen Nong didn’t want to do this, but he couldn’t control it at all.

[So scared, so scared, Mi Chong was crying, his parents ran away...]

The nursery rhymes in his mind started to haunt him again with Chen Meier's words.

The rice insect cries, and the parents run away.

So scared, so scared...

The helpless cries of countless children eroded his mind.

Chen Nong held his head in pain.

[Why? ]

Why run, why don’t you want me?

[It turns out that the rice bug has grown up]

"Husband, husband, are you okay?" Mrs. Chen saw that his expression was wrong and stood up anxiously to hold his shoulders.

Chen Nong was sweating profusely and murmured with dull eyes: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Children without parents will become children of the wind. They are the embodiment of kindness. They are loved and protected by the wind. The gods are merciful, the vegetation is with them, the flesh is good at poison, the sound of the sound indicates safety, and the mother and son are dependent on each other."

Chen Meier opened her eyes wide, "Dad is so powerful, he knows better than the adults in Siye Mansion. There is much more to say! Master Ye Youshi also said that those children who are not picked up by their parents are the children of winnowing. They will always look like that in the future, which is a symbol of being chosen. "

Chen. Nong was awakened by his daughter's innocent words. When his mind regained its clarity, he recalled what he had just said. He almost found a hole to crawl into - he actually said the unpopular Zhiguai content he had written yesterday.

Seeing the expression of admiration and trust on his daughter's face, Chen Nong was speechless.

Mrs. Chen sighed: "In this way, those children are not the cause of the disaster, but the blessing after the disaster."

Chen Nong raised his head in astonishment, "How can you believe this?" Made up stories.

Mrs. Chen said: "Why don't you believe it? Didn't you also say that they are the embodiment of kindness. Our Meier is kind and cute, and we are reluctant to let her go and let her become a fairy child before she is sent back."

She hugged Chen Meier and gave Chen Nong a wink.

Chen Nong understood. This story is the best truth for both children and parents.

After the meal, Mrs. Chen asked Chen Nong what he did in Siye Mansion yesterday. The understanding person did not continue to ask.

"You can rest at home today." Mrs. Chen said.

Chen Nong shook his head, "I still have to go to Moxiang Pavilion to see if construction has started. I don't have enough money left at home."

Mrs. Chen said distressedly: "It's not more than a day or two."

Chen Nong still smiled and shook his head. What if I miss these two days and don't need him as a scribe?

At this time, Chen Meier jumped out and said, "Dad, Si Yefu is looking for literati!"

Mrs. Chen's eyes lit up and she didn't notice that Chen Nong's face stiffened.

Mrs. Chen asked her daughter, "What's going on?"

Chen Meier said: "I heard what those rich young men said. Everyone is squeezing their heads to get in. If dad is so powerful, he can definitely do it."

Chen Nong, who was looked at by his daughter with admiring eyes, could not tell what was in his heart. : No, daddy is not that powerful!

Mrs. Chen also looked forward to it and said: "My husband is so knowledgeable, why not give it a try."

If you are really knowledgeable, you will not fail the exam. Chen Nong shook his head, thinking about how to refuse.

Dong dong dong——

There was a knock on the door.

Accompanied by a voice: "Mr. Chen, are you at home? A disciple of Si Yefu is here to visit."

The three people in the family all changed their colors, but Mrs. Chen and her daughter were extremely happy, while Chen Nong showed his social appearance. He looked like he wanted to burrow into the ground.

"Just say I don't..." At home.

Chen Meier has already run to open the door.

Three young men wearing Si Yefu disciple uniforms looked inside and locked eyes with Chen Nong.

The lean Shen Hou who took the lead shouted: "Mr. Chen, congratulations, what a great joy. Yesterday you won the first prize for the article you wrote in the clerk's room. Now we invite Mr. Chen to join us in Si Ye Mansion."

“!!?” Chen Nong stared in shock.

When did he say he was going to take office?

"Husband, you are really..."

"Daddy is so awesome!"

Chen Nong looked at it.

I could see the adoration and joy in my daughter’s eyes, and my wife also had a look of irritation on her face, as if she was saying silently: You are actually trying to sneak surprises.

"No..." Chen Nong shook his head halfway, and Shen Hou shouted: "Please ask Mr. Chen to get on the sedan."

The two people behind rushed up, each driving Chen Nong's car With his arms, Chen Nong, who looked frightened and in a daze, was quickly carried out.

After sending the person into the sedan, Shen Hou gave his teammates a wink, and the teammates immediately rushed to Si Ye Mansion, beating gongs and drums and shouting: Mr. Chen is so talented that Si Ye Mansion takes the lead!

——Your Majesty, please put down your words. No matter what method is used, Mr. Chen must be invited to serve in Siye Mansion. They can also receive rewards for completing tasks.

Shen Hou is the most thoughtful among the preparatory disciples of Siye Mansion. He volunteered after learning about the mission from Shen Lang.

Inside the sedan.

Chen Nong, who originally wanted to open the curtains and call for help, had a cracked expression. When he saw the people watching outside through the window slit, he immediately retracted his head and felt almost desperate: for half his life, he had longed to hear the high school scene preached on the streets. But it’s definitely not a high school like today!
