Chapter 165 Borrowing Food
As her body changed, the 'elegant' language she had just said turned into 'quack'.
"..."
"Hahahahahaha... No, Master, you..."
"Xiangxiang, I only have one question left. Can I change back anytime? Do I really have to be a toad for two days?"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
The only response she got was Xiangxiang's laughter. She didn't answer Song Anning until she was tired of laughing.
"You can transform back into yourself, but just like with a protective shield, time won't stop after you transform back into yourself, so that would be like wasting the time you spent transforming."
"Well, forget it then..."
At this time, Song Anning was lying under the bushes, still a little uncomfortable with the sudden change. Xiangxiang did not forget to remind him:
"Master, there is good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"
Song Anning wanted to scratch her hair, but all she saw was the dark green front legs. Helplessly, she could only reply consciously: "Tell me the good news first, let me be happy."
"Hahaha, actually, Master is very lucky. Frogs' natural enemies are snakes, and you happen to have snake-repellent pills. Compared to other frogs, you're very safe."
"What about the bad news?"
"Hey, the bad news is that it's frog breeding season now, and the owner is a female frog, so please be careful."
"..."
At first, Song Anning couldn't jump like a frog. Others jumped forward, but she could only jump in place.
Xiangxiang still couldn't bear it, so she explained it bit by bit. Song Anning memorized the key points and jumped towards the old house at the foot of the mountain.
"Master, please jump slowly. Xiangxiang will play some music for you to improve your mood."
Before she could reply, the system's voice rang in her head, still in 3D surround mode.
"There is a little frog in the happy pond. It dances as if it is possessed by a prince, croak, croak..."
"Stop! Next song!"
"We are all little frogs, croak, croak, croak..."
"..."
Whatever, Song An Ning blinked his toad eyes twice in despair, squatted on the ground and sighed, then continued to jump to the foot of the mountain.
She paused until she saw the wall of the old house, passed through the gap in the fence, and quietly lay down in the grass.
However, her tongue seemed to be out of control. Whenever she saw a bug, she wanted to eat it. Xiangxiang said that this was an animal instinct, but she didn't want to do it!
After waiting outside for a long time, Song Zeyuan and Song Anyue came out of the house.
The two of them didn't eat well in the morning. The old house was empty and there was nothing to eat. Song Anyue ran out of the house crying, with complaints in her words.
"I'm hungry, I want to eat meat! I want to go back to find my sister, woo woo woo..."
Song Zeyuan quickly grabbed her, his tone not very good.
"Song Anyue, can you be a little more ambitious? You're going back just for a bite to eat? Didn't I tell you that you will have everything in the future? Why can't you wait?"
Song Anyue was stunned by his yelling. She lowered her head and touched her deflated stomach, and kept making a fuss:
"You only talk about later. Ah Yue wants to eat now, right now!"
"How about tomorrow? Tomorrow I'll buy you roast goose, cakes, and candy. Eat as much as you want.
Let's go to Aunt Guihua's house and borrow some food. After today, we will be rich and powerful."
After he finished speaking, he left Song Anyue alone at home, closed the gate, and walked towards the village.
Song Anning followed behind him, dancing hard, but what she was thinking was:
Just now, I heard Ayuan speak to Ayue with great confidence, as if there would definitely be money tomorrow, and it would be a considerable profit.
What could it be? There was less than half an acre of peppers and eggplants in the backyard of the old house. This guy must be trying to sell her peppers and eggplants.
The duck eggs that Wang Qiuyue had pickled earlier were also here.
Want to get rich with her things? He really dares to think so.
Song An Ning followed Aunt Guihua all the way to her house, but she didn't dare to enter the yard.
Aunt Guihua had a dog at home, and it had given birth to a litter of puppies. For her now, encountering half-grown puppies was a disaster, so it was better to let Xiangxiang listen to the sounds.
After Song Zeyuan entered the courtyard, Xiangxiang began to recount their conversation:
"Aunt Guihua, Ah Yue and I were kicked out by my sister. She doesn't want us anymore. Could you lend Ah Yuan some food and return it tomorrow?"
Aunt Guihua's family has a very good reputation in the village. The couple are kind and good-hearted, and they have often helped Song Anning's family.
Song Zeyuan came here because he saw that Aunt Guihua was soft-hearted and easy to talk to.
But he didn't expect that after he said this, he was turned away.
"Ayuan, you should be a conscientious person. The whole village saw how your sister treated you.
The whole village knows why you two returned to the old house.
Since you feel that you can live well without your sister, then don't ask the villagers for help. Build a family business on your own, and we, the elders, will look up to you.
Come back quickly, my family doesn't have any extra food to lend you."
Before lunch, the news of Song Zeyuan and his sister's "feat" today spread throughout the village. Song Erhe even went to every house and told everyone not to help.
Now the whole village depends on Song Anning's peppers and eggplants to survive, and no one will help them.
"Humph, isn't it just the chili seedlings that Song Anning sold to you? You licked them like a dog.
If you don’t want to lend it to me, then don’t lend it to me. I don’t care about it.”
After he finished speaking, he spat in the direction of Aunt Guihua and walked away without looking back.
"This child..."
Aunt Guihua looked at his small back and shook her head in disappointment. How could such a good child become like this?
Song Zeyuan went to four or five families in a row and got similar answers. There were a few villagers who wanted to lecture him, but he retorted them all.
After going around the village and not borrowing a single grain of food, Song Zeyuan went home and got very angry at Song Anyue. He then went to Wang Ying'er's house and looked around. When he saw duck eggs all over the floor, his eyes lit up.
"Xiangxiang, take out all these duck eggs and replace them with stones."
Taking and putting things in the air requires money, but Song Anning is not short of money now. Even if it costs hundreds or thousands of taels, he can't let these duck eggs fall into the hands of these two bastards.
"Okay, Master, there are eighty jars in total, Xiangxiang has already put them into the backpack.
I bought the same jar from the mall, put stones in it, sprinkled a layer of wood ash on the stones, and placed it in the house.
The total cost was eight taels of silver."
"Okay, thank you, my Xiang. Then collect all the peppers and eggplants in the backyard. Don't worry about the big or small ones, just collect all the ones that have grown."
"Okay! Xiangxiang, I'll do it right away."
After Song Zeyuan cleaned the pot in the kitchen, he walked into the house excitedly and came to the jar, and said loudly to Song Anyue:
"Ayue, how about we have preserved eggs for lunch? Eat a few more."
