Chapter 193 Invitation
Chapter 193 Invitation
Because Daiyu was preoccupied with the matter of Monkey King, she didn't play with her sisters for several days.
Baoyu felt dissatisfied and came to see Daiyu that day, saying, "Sister, why haven't you played with us these past few days?"
All he ever does is play, play, play. The Rongguo Mansion has come to such a terrible end, and all Baoyu still remembers is playing.
Daiyu is now like an old mother, disappointed in Baoyu's lack of ambition. If only Baoyu could be more ambitious and protect the sisters in the family, their final fates wouldn't have been like the one in the book.
So she advised, "Second Master, you're getting on in years, you should put more effort into serious books!"
Baoyu, however, said nonchalantly, "Oh dear, this is outrageous! My sister is actually trying to persuade me to study! How come she's saying such nonsense like everyone else?"
One sentence from him completely extinguished Daiyu's interest in studying; this person simply didn't care about learning, so be it.
"I won't say anything then."
When Baoyu saw that Daiyu didn't say anything like that again, he felt that Daiyu was still the same Daiyu as before, never forcing him like others.
“My dear sister, these days you’ve been in such a hurry every time you leave that we haven’t had a proper chat.”
“If I don’t speak, don’t you have many younger sisters, Second Brother?” Daiyu glared at him.
“There are many younger sisters here, but I only have you, Lin Daiyu,” Baoyu said coquettishly.
If Daiyu had heard these words before, although she would still be angry, she would definitely have been able to forgive Baoyu. But now, Daiyu only sees Baoyu as her brother.
"Alright, stop being so glib."
Seeing this, Baoyu smiled and stepped forward, "Sister, don't be angry. I know you mean well, but I really don't like those classics and historical texts."
Daiyu sighed softly, "Second Master, do you know that the world is ever-changing, and some accidents can happen unexpectedly?"
Baoyu scratched his head. "What you say is true, but I just want to stay with you and my sisters and live a carefree life."
Daiyu shook her head helplessly. "Second Master always thinks too simply. Never mind, let's not talk about this today."
Daiyu patiently talked with Baoyu for a while, and then hurriedly went to find Monkey King.
"Daiyu, you're a little late today, are you alright?" Monkey King was a little worried when he saw that Daiyu had arrived late and seemed to be in a bit of a hurry.
"It's nothing, I just spent a while talking with my brother at home, which took a short time."
"That's good, that's good. If you're short on time next time, it's okay if you don't come to see me, Old Sun." Monkey King still felt a little sorry for Daiyu.
"You little monkey, are you complaining that I'm coming too often?"
"No, no, I don't. I wish you would come to see me every day," Monkey King quickly explained, afraid that Daiyu would be angry.
"I'm just worried that you're overworking yourself; you've only just recovered."
"Don't worry, I know."
The two, one human and one monkey, shared another sweet interaction, thankfully Lin Liuyi didn't have to stay on the sidelines to watch.
Meanwhile, Lin Liuyi finally finished delivering the pine nuts, and then she received an invitation.
"I've been invited to Tiananmen Square to attend the National Day celebrations!" Lin Liuyi stared in disbelief at the invitation in his hand. It was a gift from the government!
“No, Zhou Zheng. Am I qualified?” Her hands were trembling as she held the invitation.
"Don't worry! You're absolutely qualified. You've made so many contributions to the country, everyone remembers them. It's just that for your safety, we can't let you stand in the center!" Zhou Zheng even joked with her.
"What do you mean by 'center position'? I'm already doing great just to be able to stand on that spot!"
She's made a fortune! She's really made something of herself; she's even able to stand on the Tiananmen Rostrum to participate in the National Day celebrations!
"It's okay, don't be nervous. We'll prepare your clothes and everything else for you," Zhou Zheng reassured her.
Even after the other party left, Lin Liuyi's excited heart still couldn't calm down.
Imagine, on National Day, she and a group of leaders stood on the Tiananmen Rostrum, the five-star red flag rising slowly in the morning sun, fluttering in the wind.
Flowers bloomed on both sides, fountains rose, soldiers in crisp uniforms marched past, and new weapons such as armored vehicles and missile launchers awaited their inspection, while airplanes flying overhead left trails of colorful smoke.
Just thinking about the possible scenarios made Lin Liuyi's heart race with excitement.
"I'm so grateful to you for making me rich!" Lin Liuyi never imagined that he would have such a glorious day.
"Host, do you want to control yourself? National Day isn't here yet! Why don't you write some more articles?" The system didn't understand why the host's heart was beating so fast. She knew that she was only slightly excited when she saw the Great Sage.
"You're right, I need to control myself, I need to calm down!" Lin Liuyi finally slowly calmed down.
But what should I write?
"I've got it! National Day is almost here. Let's make a fortune! Remember that short drama we watched a few days ago, the one about opening a supermarket on the Long March? How about I write something similar?"
Every National Day, people always mention those revolutionary martyrs.
Without their bloodshed and sacrifice, we would not have the happy life we enjoy today.
In that era of national turmoil and upheaval, it was they who devoted themselves to the revolution, drove out the invaders, and protected this homeland. They defended the country and its people with their lives, how could they not be worthy of our respect?
With this in mind, Lin Liuyi began to write furiously, setting the story on the battlefield against the Japanese.
The protagonist is a time traveler who brings Taobao to a war-torn era.
He joined the team, became a comrade, and used his app to buy food, medicine, and clothes—basically, he bought whatever the team needed.
It was a pity that he couldn't buy weapons and ammunition. So he continued to follow the team and do his part, hoping to drive away the invaders as soon as possible.
After Lin Liuyi finished writing some of it, he handed it over to the system for distribution.
"Get rich! This is the first time I've ever really wanted my articles to find readers." Lin Liuyi didn't ask for any rewards, he just hoped the other person would become a reader.
According to the system's distribution theory, the type of articles she writes will likely attract the same type of readers, and this time she hopes to meet our comrades.
Lin Liuyi hoped that he could help them, even if it was just to give them some hope.
"Host, this system cannot guarantee this." The system currently has no way of controlling which world its book will go to.
Lin Liuyi sighed, but still held onto hope.
Soon, the system announced to her: "Host, you have received a new reward!"
Lin Liuyi hurriedly received it. What was this dark, indistinct thing?
"The system detected that it contains grass roots, rice bran, and tree leaves."
Does it have any special function?
"The system did not detect any special function."
If they have no special function, then what's the point of tucking these things together?
Oh well, never mind, let's invite the readers first.
