Chapter 733: Old Best Friend
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It was the third day of October, and it was not long before Wang Wulang’s birthday. All Yu had long prepared a birthday gift for him and placed it in his room. She was only waiting for Fifth Brother to return in the future so that she could take it out for him to take a look.
Other than Fifth Brother, there were also Eldest Uncle, Aunt, Second Uncle, Second Aunt, Eldest Brother, Eldest Sister-in-law, and Little Nephew. The family had left them a small courtyard and house each. Her birthday gifts were placed in their rooms one by one.
In the past, she did not think much of it. Now, when she heard such words, and not having her family by her side, she couldn’t help but worry.
Before falling asleep, Qin Huai asked someone to send some snacks to the Wang Family. Actually, he took the opportunity to ask why Ah Yu did not wait for him today.
In the past, even if he was busy, Ah Yu would either go to the side hall of the Hanlin Academy to read or wait in the Astrology Divination Bureau. She would not leave like this.
Because they had agreed that once he was transferred to the coastal city, they might have to live apart. The two little ones didn’t overthink it; they just wanted to spend as much time together as possible now, realizing that it might not be as easy to meet in the future.
Ah Yu took a bite of the pastry and did not have much of an appetite. She let Tang Yuan reply, “Big Sister Tang Yuan, tell him not to worry. I’m fine. I’ll tell him if there’s anything.”
“Alright.” Tang Yuan brought a new bowl of soup dumplings and stuffed it into her hand. “You should sleep early too. No matter what, you have to take care of yourself first. The colder the weather, the easier it is to become sick. Don’t catch a cold.”
“It’s not that cold. Wanning City is not as cold as Wangbei County. It’ll only be colder in October.” Although Ah Yu said this, she still obediently took the bowl of soup dumpling and held her in her arms.
She said, “Do the others have it?”
“Don’t worry. The maid beside Old Madam is from the palace. She asked everyone to do these things long ago. This way, the masters will save a lot of effort!”
“Yes, Grandma Chang is very good. I was still thinking if I should find a new maid for my mother.” With this thought in mind, she pondered. In any case, she was going to the palace. It should be fine to ask them for a capable person.
After Tang Yuan left, All Yu lay on the bed and closed her eyes. Her thoughts jumped into the spatial pocket.
“Elf, Elf, are you asleep?”
[When did you see me sleep?] Meatbail was a little helpless. It was catching the fishes that Ah Yu had fed to the merit pool one by one and throwing them into the pond it had dug out.
There were also things like fish, shrimp, and crabs that All Yu had caught when she was young. When she was young, she was greedy and her Big Brothers would give her whatever they caught to play with, so she placed them in the spatial pocket to raise.
Later on, she developed feelings for these animals. She usually could not bear to eat them and kept them in the spatial pocket.
It had to be said that Meatbail had never heard of a guardian’s spatial pocket like this. It was a large-scale farming paradise with all kinds of fruits and vegetables, as well as common and uncommon animals and plants.
It was simply a comprehensive farm, zoo, botanical garden, and ecological garden all rolled into one.
It could imagine that when All Yu went to the seaside city she had been thinking about, there would definitely be more aquariums here.
“Elf, can you ‘see’ how Fifth Brother and Second Uncle are doing now?” Ah Yu said. “Actually, I’m very uncertain.”
[I don’t know how to read fortunes.] Meatball thought to itself. The reason why it could cover the entire Wanning City on a large scale now and knew that there were many factors that made up the large and small matters that had not been deliberately hidden in this city was due to a combination of various factors.
For instance, it was one of the few offspring directly nurtured with power from the Origin Space. It was also the first to traverse numerous chaotic temporal sequences to be by the side of its protected subject. Moreover, its protected subject was in a restructured temporal world, and the protected subject was a child whose growth protection pool was automatically activated…
In short, such an ability could not be replicated, so the Origin Space was relatively tolerant of it and Ah Yu. In a sense, they were all important observation targets of the spatial pocket.
“Then if 1 want to find out about them as soon as possible, what’s the fastest way to do it? I’m going to the palace to look for the Empress Dowager tomorrow, but the Empress Dowager has always lived in the palace. There’s not much she can do. At most, she’ll lend me some people to help me investigate the news. However, Fifth Brother is more than 5,000 miles away from Wanning City, and the Chang’an County where Second Uncle is is not close either. Searching like this, the trail will go cold!”
[Don’t be anxious. It’s not like there’s no way.] Meatball couldn’t stand Ah Yu’s anxious look and immediately took out its favorability notebook.
On it was the data monitoring system that the Origin Space usually used. It was the one who shamelessly asked for it. As long as it took the initiative to update the notebook, the favorability of the names in the notebook towards All Yu would update in real time. There was no need for them to be present.
[Your second uncle’s favorability is 90, and your second aunt’s is 91. There hasn’t been much change in the past two months. Only on your birthday did the points go up a few more decimal points. This means that they’re relatively safe around your birthday.]
[Oh, your Fifth Brother’s score changed very quickly. At first, it was 95. A month ago, it suddenly became 96. Half a month ago, it became 99. Ten days ago, it became 80. This morning, in a very short period of time, it changed from 80 to 98 and finally fixed at 96. Whoa, his favorability towards you is already ranked fourth!]
“How could this be?” Ah Yu knew that sometimes, these rapidly fluctuating favorability points did not mean that their favorability towards her had changed. Instead, it was because they had thought of her at certain times. When their minds changed, their favorability would also change.
Second Uncle and Second Aunt had not changed much. Either they did not think of her much or nothing had happened to them.
Fifth Brother’s had changed so much.
“Did something happen to Fifth Brother?!”
[Oh, 1 don’t think so. Although 1 don’t have the authority to monitor them, their favorability is still bright red. It hasn’t turned gray, which means that they’re at least still alive.]
This could only show if the other party was alive or not. As for their health and mental state, it naturally wouldn’t know.
After all, it was only Ah Yu’s guardian and not the guardian of this planet. It had already exceeded its authority a lot. If it continued exceeding it, it was afraid that it would be forced back to the Origin Space by the other jealous Guardians.
Ah Yu heaved a sigh of relief. “It’s good that he’s still alive for the time being. By the way, why is he fourth?”
[Originally, your Fifth Brother was not ranked fourth.] Meatbail said, [First place is your mother, 100. Then your Grandma, 99.3..]
