The quick-traveling villain has no way to escape.

The Song family also agreed.

Mother Song and Mrs. Song were still reluctant to let their children go far away. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law wiped their tears at home, and finally thought about it for a long time and said that Song Tingyun should not leave until after the Chinese New Year this year.

Song Tingyun felt that it didn't matter, it didn't matter before or after. He had to ask Xu Mingli.

In the original plot, Xu Mingli persuaded Mrs. Xu, and the house was sold to Manzi who moved down the mountain.

Yesterday, Song's father and Song's mother were very cruel when they beat Song Tingyun. When he woke up the next day, Song Tingyun was limping when he walked, and there was no pain anywhere on his body.

The wound at the corner of his mouth was so swollen that even drinking water hurt.

"Hiss~" The brown rice porridge was unpalatable and his mouth hurt. Song Tingyun almost burst into tears.

The two shabby houses were not warm at all. The family sat together. Everyone was wearing shabby cotton-padded jackets, except Song Tingyun who was wearing a new cotton-padded jacket.

The eldest of the three unmarried sisters is fifteen years old, and the youngest is nine years old. They are all wearing old cotton-padded clothes that have been patched. It seems that they are leftovers from Song Tingyun.

Song Tingyun felt particularly uncomfortable as he was the only one wearing warm clothes while everyone else was suffering from the cold.

He held a bowl and said to Song's mother: "Mom, I don't plan to get married for the time being anyway, and the money you prepared is not used. Use the money to pull some cloth and make a new cotton coat for each of the family members." Yeah, especially my little sister."

As soon as Song Tingyun said this, everyone in the room was stunned.

He stared blankly at Song Tingyun without saying anything.

The three sisters looked at each other, their mouths tightly pursed, without saying a word.

Song Tingyun didn't know what the prices were like in the 1990s. He had never lived a hard life and had no idea about this. He thought he had said something wrong.

"What's wrong? Are cotton-padded clothes expensive?"

"Not expensive!" After Mother Song realized what she was doing, she turned her head and secretly wiped away her tears.

In this era, every household was very poor. Children wore the clothes of the older ones after the younger ones, and the remaining children continued to wear them after the younger ones. The patches were mended and sewn.

The money spent on making a cotton-padded coat can feed a family for half a month.

But Song's mother just said it was not expensive, because her son finally knew that he cared about his family, and finally he didn't only care about himself.

After breakfast, Song Tingyun ran to Xu Mingli's house without missing a moment.

Thinking that he and Xu Mingli would be able to go out and explore together soon, Song Tingyun was in a good mood. He met people from the same village along the way, no matter men, women, old or young, he greeted them with a smile.

The people in the village were also very surprised.

Song Tingyun, who is usually disliked by dogs, did he take the wrong medicine today?

Ding-dong-

[Dear host, 10% of your mission progress in this system’s small world has been completed. Please continue to work hard. I hope you can have a pleasant trip next time]

The system prompt suddenly sounded in his mind, and the green progress bar appeared again. Song Tingyun was startled and almost fell down.

"Can you give me a notice in advance the next time the beep sounds?" Song Tingyun slowed down, panting and struggling.

In this world, tasks are completed so quickly, and 10% has been completed at the beginning.

Does this mean that in this world, he will soon be able to complete his mission and leave this terrible world?

Song Tingyun was a little lucky, but at the same time he felt a little regretful. He was glad that he didn't have to suffer too much in this world, but he also regretted that he couldn't spend more time with Xu Mingli.

Sure enough, you can’t have your cake and eat it too.

But what are the criteria for the system to judge task completion? Song Tingyun was really curious.

Could it be because he is here now and is no longer the selfish person who only cares about himself and doesn't want to see the good of others.

He knew that he felt sorry for his parents and his brothers and sisters, but he did not fan the flames behind his back to make it more difficult for Xu Mingli to go out to fight monsters and upgrade, so the system judged him to be a good person.

Song Tingyun couldn't understand.

He just didn't want to think about it anymore. He just wanted to see Xu Mingli as soon as possible and tell him the news about whether he could accompany him to the capital.

Xu Mingli is packing his things at home. He doesn't plan to leave the house the day after tomorrow while celebrating the New Year. He doesn't plan to sell the house. If it is sold, Mrs. Xu will have no place to live.

He planned to earn the travel expenses to the capital by himself. He would go to the city to work as a coolie for a few days and then set off after saving up the travel expenses.

Xu Fengjiao felt sorry for her brother, but even though she was angry, she walked up to Xu Mingli and secretly stuffed him five hundred yuan.

"I don't have much. Don't worry, grandma, he will be healthy and live for another 20 years. I will take care of the rest."

"I don't want your money." How could Xu Mingli want Xu Fengjiao's money? He put the money into Xu Fengjiao's hand again, "You will have a lot of money to spend after you have a baby. I don't want it."

"Why don't you look down on your sister? You haven't made a lot of money yet."

"It's not that I don't--"

Xu Mingli had just finished speaking when he was interrupted by Song Tingyun's voice outside the door.

"Xu Mingli! I'm here to find you!"

Hearing this, Xu Fengjiao turned her head and glanced outside the door, with a look of disgust on her face: "Brother, when did you have such a good relationship with Song Tingyun? I heard that his marriage is about to be settled. She is Yuan Pingsheng's cousin. I don't know why his aunt is here. I want to marry my daughter to such a person."

Xu Mingli: "..."

Hearing that Song Tingyun's marriage was about to be settled, Xu Mingli felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.

Thinking of Song Tingyun coming to him yesterday and saying that he wanted to take him with him, Xu Mingli felt as if there was a stone in his heart.

Song Tingyun was still knocking on the door outside, his face turned red from the cold in the cold winter.

"I'll go out and take a look." Xu Mingli put down his things and stood up to open the door without answering Xu Fengjiao's words.

As soon as the door opened, Xu Mingli saw Song Tingyun's flushed face and his still bright and bright smile.

The unhappiness in my heart disappeared without a trace in an instant.

"Sansong, why are you here?"

"My parents have agreed for me to go to the capital with you." Song Tingyun was very excited and held Xu Mingli's hand without letting go, "We can go together."

Xu Mingli: "..."

"I told my parents yesterday when I went back. They were so angry that they beat me up at first." Song Tingyun didn't notice the change in Xu Mingli's expression and kept talking to Xu Mingli.

Xu Mingli's attention was entirely on his lively face and the wound at the corner of his mouth.

Song Tingyun looked at this.

Xu Mingli's chest was feeling hot, and he uncontrollably touched Song Tingyun's injured face and asked, "Does it hurt?"

"Huh?" Song Tingyun didn't react. He was stunned for a moment before he realized that Xu Mingli was asking him if it hurt from being beaten by mixed doubles yesterday. "It definitely hurts, but it's worth it to go out with you."
