God's Gift

Lu Keming stood there and stared at the old patriarch for a few seconds. He rubbed his fingers and lowered his head to look at Yu Youyou.

Yu Youyou stared into his eyes for a second, nodded her head, took a few steps back, turned around and ran into the yard.

Only then did Lu Keming follow the old patriarch into the room.

After he left, Yu Youyou walked around the yard, came to the stairs between the hallway and the yard, and lay down on the stairs.

When the sun had reached one-third of its altitude, the temperature of the air gradually rose. Yu Youyou's clothes rolled on the ground a few times and were covered with dust. She stared at the dust on her clothes for a long time, and her thoughts began to wander.

Grandma always washes it with water.

Yu Youyou looked around the yard and saw a half-person-high clay jar in the corner.

She climbed up the steps and ran towards the clay jar in small steps.

The clay jar was used by the clan leader to raise fish, and there were some green plants in it. However, it was late autumn now, and there were only some weeds left in the water, with a few goldfish swimming in the water.

Yu Youyou jumped onto the edge of the clay jar, stared at it for a while, looked at the dust on her clothes, then looked at the jar again, and then returned to her clothes.

After this happened several times, the puppy's face was filled with worry.

Yu Youyou licked the water with her tongue and tried to get it on her clothes, but it was obviously useless.

After a few seconds, Yu Youyou's eyes rolled around and she looked around slyly. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she sat down in the water.

"hey-hey……"

She laughed twice and curled up her body until the whole dog was shrunk into the tank. Then she put her chin on the edge of the tank and stuck out her tongue happily.

The goldfish in the tank were pushed against the wall and fled in fear. Several fish huddled together in the corner, trembling.

After a few seconds, Yu Youyou smacked her lips twice.

thirsty.

Yu Youyou buried her mouth in the water, spit out two bubbles, and took a sip of bath water.

Shen Minghua and a few others were sitting in the main hall talking, Ye Li and the clan leader's daughter-in-law were cleaning up in the kitchen, and Yu Youyou was lying in the bathtub, looking up at the sun. Everything was very comfortable.

After just a few sips of water, Ji Yu Youyou vomited it out after a while.

A smell of dog hair.

-

In the kitchen over there, Ye Li finished washing the dishes and put them in the cupboard. The daughter of the clan leader's daughter-in-law suddenly ran past the kitchen door. She looked at the girl and suddenly thought of Chen Qingqiu.

"Ma'am, your daughter doesn't go to school?"

When the clan leader's daughter-in-law heard this question, her expression turned a little unhappy. "She was originally at school, but I brought her back these few days."

"What happened?" Ye Li asked subconsciously after hearing this.

“Not yet…” The clan leader had a look of disgust on his face, and he hesitated to speak. Looking at Ye Li’s puzzled expression, he finally said, “We only have two teachers here, and one of them was new a few months ago.”

"That young man looked gentle, but he had a broken leg. I felt sorry for him."

"Although he is pitiful, he is also a young talent. How could he be assigned to our place?" The clan leader's daughter-in-law snorted coldly, "As a result, the villagers went to the city and found out that he was assigned to our place because he had done something dirty."

"What dirty thing?" Ye Li frowned and continued to ask.

The clan leader's daughter-in-law looked outside the kitchen and made sure that no one was outside before she lowered her voice and said, "He molested his own students and was brought to court."

"Indecent?" Ye Li repeated, his expression gradually turning cold.

Could it be that the ghost that Yu Youyou saw following Chen Qingqiu was the girl who was killed by him?

Ye Li did not say anything, and the clan leader's daughter-in-law began to nag again: "How dare I let my daughter take a class with such a jerk."

She couldn't hide the disgust on her face, "But luckily he will be leaving in a few days, otherwise we would definitely drive him away."

Ye Li nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

The kitchen had been cleaned up. Ye Li walked out the door and was about to tell Shen Minghua what he had just inquired about. When he looked up, he saw a puppy in red clothes lying beside a water tank and vomiting.

Ye Li looked at the puppy, stopped, and his expression gradually distorted.

The clan leader's daughter-in-law saw her suddenly stop and asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

Ye Li clenched his hands and forced a smile to the clan leader's daughter-in-law, "It's okay, I'll go check on the dog."

After saying that, she turned around and walked towards Yu Youyou aggressively.

After Yu Youyou finished vomiting, she looked up and saw Ye Li staring at her with a dark face.

Huh?

Yu Youyou tilted her head, and stared at Ye Li with her dark eyes in confusion for a long while, until she heard the sound of Ye Li gritting his teeth.

"Yu! Yuzu! Yuzu!"

When Yu Youyou heard Ye Li's angry voice, she immediately realized that something was wrong. Her ears gradually folded down and stuck to the back of her head, turning into airplane ears. She carefully raised her eyelids and glanced at Ye Li.

"what happened?"

"What's wrong? You still ask what's wrong! Winter is coming soon, and you still dare to soak in the water now!" Ye Li looked at Yu Youyou who was soaked all over, and was furious.

Yu Youyou put her ears closer to the water, her eyes rolled around a few times, she slowly lowered her head, moved almost motionlessly, stretched her feet out of the tank, and was about to sneak away quietly.

"Want to run, right?" Ye Li did not give Yu Youyou a chance. She grabbed the back of Yu Youyou's neck and lifted her out of the tank.

Yu Youyou was being carried by Ye Li, and she knew she couldn't run away now, so she just gave up. She smiled, pretending that she didn't understand anything, and approached Ye Li with a playful smile.

"Don't come over here. Look at what's wrong with you. You're still dripping with water, and you still want to stick to me!" Ye Li pushed Yu Youyou's head away.

Yu Youyou was so angry at Ye Li that she pursed her lips, her ears drooped, and she stared at Ye Li with wet eyes, "A Li..."

"That's enough." Ye Li patted Yu Youyou, "Don't give me that."

She quickly stripped off Yu Youyou's clothes and brought her to the main hall. Only then did the people sitting there see Yu Youyou, who was soaked all over.

"Um..." Shen Minghua hesitated for a few seconds and asked Ye Li, "Did you give Youyou a bath?"

"I wish I had given her a bath." Ye Li snorted, "She ran to the water tank in the yard and lay there for who knows how long. Didn't you all notice it?"

Shen Minghua coughed dryly and said, "We sent people to other villagers' homes to get information. We were just contacting them and really didn't notice it. Don't be angry."

He took Yu Youyou, took out a blanket from the storage space, and wrapped Yu Youyou up.

"Oh my, how come you are all wet?" The clan leader's daughter-in-law came over and saw this scene.

Yu Youyou was wrapped in a blanket. When she heard the voice of the clan leader's daughter-in-law, she raised her head and grinned.

Ye Li immediately looked over with a stern gaze, and Yu Youyou lowered her head again.

"Take it inside. There's a socket inside. I'll find you a hair dryer."

Shen Minghua stood up holding Yu Youyou, brought it into the house, put it on the sofa, then turned around and went to get a hair dryer with the clan leader's daughter-in-law.

Yu Youyou was the only one in the room. She was wrapped like a silkworm cocoon. She turned over, facing upwards, and stared at the ceiling motionlessly.

The air became much cooler, and the sky outside the window gradually darkened, taking away the light in the room.

A drop of sticky and moist liquid dripped onto Yu Youyou's nose, and a rotten and smelly smell rushed into her nasal cavity.
