Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva

"'Danterian', it's time to get off work~"

In the jungle, 'Botis' shook the sleeping maid to wake her up.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Heshia suddenly raised her head and hurriedly checked the time.

"It's okay, it's okay." Botis waved his hand, telling Hercia not to panic.

"Today's work has been done well."

She stepped aside, inspected the stock of venom in the freezer, and turned around.

"Does 'Danterian' know what the extracted venom is for?"

"This...is probably a pharmaceutical?" Hersia remembered that Botis had briefly mentioned it.

"Partly yes, partly not." 'Botis' asked Hercia to sit beside her.

"Part of the venom will be further extracted, and then used to make certain special potions, such as some elixir needed for job advancement."

When the Transcendent Sequence is trained to Sequence 4-5, some special resources will be needed, which may be a certain kind of fruit, a certain kind of metal, or a certain kind of potion, etc.

"In addition, although some venoms cannot be directly used as medicine, they also have other uses, such as some rituals, etching, perfume, poison, and so on."

"It's really made into poison." Although I heard Botis mentioned some of it before, it was not as detailed as today.

"Yes, poisons are strictly controlled, but they are really needed in some special occasions, such as when dealing with some difficult creatures. You will know this later."

"Okay, I won't talk about this today. Are you free the night after tomorrow? I have extra work and I need your help."

"What kind of job?" Hercia was curious.

"One of my schoolgirls or juniors, she is going to hold a small concert the day after tomorrow, and she needs some help, such as checking tickets, selling merchandise, maintaining order, and so on."

"By the way, she is not very old, about 17-18 years old? She is still in high school, and the band members are all classmates from the same school."

"A high school student?" Heshia was a little surprised. Generally, those who play in bands are basically adults. Not to mention it is rare among students, and even rarer are those who can hold concerts by themselves.

"The time is 8-10pm, is Danterian coming?"

"It's not impossible." Heshia thought for a while, although she was a little uncomfortable in an environment with too many strangers, but if it was just work...

"Well, no problem." The girl nodded seriously.

"Then I'll trouble you." Botis responded with a smile, that smile made Hercia feel a little uncomfortable, and always felt that she had overlooked something.

But since I agreed, it's not good to go back on my word, and sister 'Boutis' shouldn't cheat her, right?

After get off work, because tomorrow is a rest day, Heshia went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients, and was going to try cooking at home, and Grandma He would also teach her some experience.

Carrying the bag and walking carefully in the corridor, Heshia looked at the familiar tunnel, as well as the pedestrians and children on the side of the road, thinking a lot in her mind.

Although only half a month has passed, life seems to have completely changed.

Back at Grandma He's house, Heshia took off her shoes, put on slippers, and put the vegetables she bought into the refrigerator.

"Ahem..." She heard a coughing sound from upstairs.

Hercia went upstairs, knocked on the door of Grandma He's bedroom, and walked in.

The old man was sitting on the hospital bed, the night light beside the bed reflected her silhouette, and most of her body was in shadow.

"You're back, Hercia."

"I'm back. How is grandma today?" Heshia knew that Grandma He's old illness had relapsed recently, and it was said that it would get worse every May-June.

"It's better." There was a little tiredness in her voice.

Seeing that Hercia's eyes were still full of worry, she beckoned for Hercia to come over.

"Let's sit down."

"Um."

"Did you just get off work today?"

"Yes."

"How is the work? I've been in poor health recently, so I haven't asked in detail."

"The work is very good, and everyone treats me very well." The girl nodded.

Grandma He held Heshia's hand, and the girl felt the old man's withered wrist and the clear bones under the skin.

"That's good..." Grandma He nodded slowly.

"In fact, the first job is not to make money, but it is not bad to be able to maintain food and clothing. The main thing is to adapt to the working environment."

"I also did a lot of work when I was young, going to restaurants, doing sales for people, and helping others with their children."

"That meeting was also very anxious. How could I only get this little money? Why did the sisters around me look so relaxed? When will such a day end..." She sighed.

"Except for a small number of people who are born with good family backgrounds, the life of most ordinary people is not easy. They can save some money occasionally, but it is easy to spend it due to various accidents."

"Some are yourself, some are family members, and some are relatives and friends. They always have to use money due to unexpected difficulties. At this time, you happen to have some money in your hand. If you don't borrow it, you will inevitably become cold-hearted and easily gossip."

"But if you borrow it out, you will feel very distressed. You know that there is a high probability that the money will never come back, and you also know how much time you have spent, how much wronged and uncomfortable you have suffered in order to save this money."

"Life is like this. Ordinary people have too many difficulties, and they can't be as peaceful and relaxed as those upper class people."

"When I was a teacher, I would teach the children to be kind and caring at first, but then I gradually stopped talking about it, just because I was afraid that they would suffer a lot because of this and be hurt by others..."

"Kindness is not just the so-called good deeds. It also requires wisdom and strength to support it. This is actually a kind of extravagant character. Later, I felt that if you just don't do bad things and follow the lowest moral laws, you are already a good person. .”

"When you first entered the society, you will inevitably be shocked. Many things you encounter will shake your previous views, and you will also be tempted a lot. Ahem—" She covered her mouth and her body trembled.

"Girls, especially good-looking girls, will receive a lot of preferential treatment when they are young. This kind of preferential treatment can easily lead to some illusions. The world is like this, and you are surrounded by 'good people'. Everyone let it go." It's a matter of course."

"But the years are slowly getting old. When the appearance and beauty fade away, this kind of preferential treatment will gradually disappear, and I will become the same as those aunts and aunts who looked down on me. Generally speaking, if you are loved and favored by everyone, you will be disliked and hateful."

"This gap is very tormenting, making people angry and dissatisfied, or self-pitying."

"I have taught many children, and I have seen too many similar things. Sometimes I sigh how the cute girl back then became like that."

"Hersia, you are a very smart child. You may have been aware of what I said before, but you must always keep in mind that when facing some temptations and choices, you must be extra calm and don't be easily fooled by other people's rhetoric. Don’t cheat, and don’t take any chances, just do it once and nothing will happen.”

"People are very weak-willed. After tasting a certain kind of sweetness, they will never forget it. Even if they know that it is poisonous, they will try it again unconsciously, because it is very easy and convenient, and does not require hard work at all. Labor and dedication, and then you will no longer be able to settle down to do some boring and accumulated things, you will only think about luck and try again and win again." Grandma He leaned on the pillow, her eyes looked at the distant front, as if Caught in a sort of sigh and regret.

"Are you wondering where the parents of He Cheng and his brother have gone? He Cheng's father, my second son, was involved in gambling back then, and then he was manipulated step by step. Not only did he spend all the money in the family, but also Borrowing debts everywhere made the other two brothers and sisters suffer, and they couldn't go on with their work and life."

"Later, his brother and sister, that is, my other two children, had to move to live in other cities, and they suffered a lot in the process, so that they got married very late, and I also wanted to keep him because I was young. One life, I don’t want him to be murdered or spend his whole life in prison, and use the family’s savings to fill a lot of holes, and in the end his sister, my third daughter Xiaoli, has no money to go to college.”

"Because of this incident, the relationship between Xiaoli and my mother has become more and more cold, and she hasn't come to see me for 20 years." Grandma He shook her head.

"In the end, he still left and died in an underground death race. His whole body was blown to pieces on the spot, and he didn't even return with his ashes."

"Originally, my house was also sold at the time, but the boss came back later and bought it back for me, so that I could have a place to live in, but he also said that this was the last time, and the contacts gradually decreased. , and now I only come to see me once a year."

"Afterwards, I took He Cheng and his brother and raised them up slowly. Fortunately, both of them grew up very well and did not inherit their father's traits. This made me very relieved."

"Slowly, my teaching level has improved a lot, and I gradually gained fame in the residential area, and then gained some respect. As time passed, everyone gradually forgot what happened 20 years ago."

"But such a thing, I will never forget it." Grandma He fumbled, opened the drawer of the bedside table, and found an old photo.

In this era of widespread electronic products, photographs are something of a rarity.

Although this photo is very old and some parts have faded, it is still sealed and preserved very well. In it, Grandma He is young, about 30 years old, squatting under a surf slide in a certain playground In front of him are three children of different sizes. The older one is 7-8 years old, the youngest just learned to walk, and the one in the middle is holding a toy in his hand and smiling happily.

"Look, wasn't he cute when he was a child..." Grandma He caressed the child in the photo, her cloudy eyes were full of nostalgia and reluctance.

"If only I could educate him well then, that would be fine."

Looking at the photo, Hercia seemed to hear the sound of frolicking in the distant time, the hustle and bustle of the amusement park, the children chasing, and the child holding up the toy figure saying 'fly, fly, I From now on, I will also be a federal driver, a big star and a hero~'

The silhouette of time is fleeting, and after Hercia blinked, the photo was so unpretentious, without any abnormalities.

"I made a note, grandma." Hercia nodded slowly.

"Well, just pay attention. In fact, I'm also afraid that saying this will make you unhappy. After all, it's a disappointment, but I can't help it, alas..."

"Okay, let's go eat something now. Tomorrow is your rest day. It's a rare holiday. Go out and have a walk, don't stay at home."

"I see." Heshia helped Grandma He repress the quilt, poured water on it, and left the room.

Hercia returned to the kitchen downstairs and began to prepare today's dinner, thinking about the past at home.

Because of the big age gap between the two sisters, she didn't play much with her sister when she was a child, and her mother usually accompanied her, and her mother seemed to be in poor health and often fell ill. Perhaps it was for this reason that she and her sister were not born together at the time. sister.

Regarding life matters, when I think about it now, my mother’s personality is really simple, as if she rarely stepped into society, like the kind of young lady in the deep boudoir, she hardly quarrels with others, and she doesn’t know how to bargain. The number is not too realistic.

It's a pity that my father is missing now, otherwise I can ask him how he managed to catch up with my mother. Compared with the beautiful and beautiful mother, my father is too ordinary.

Hersia cooked the meal, sent a serving upstairs, ate part of it herself, and put the rest in the refrigerator. Uncle He Cheng didn't come back for dinner until 9-10 in the evening. pull goods.

After tidying up, Hercia went into the bathroom and took a bath before returning to the room.

Seeing the flashing dots of the charging personal terminal, Hercia walked over and turned it on.

[Hersia, are you resting tomorrow, are you coming out to play? — Lina]

In fact, Lina also asked her to go out to play some time ago, but she refused because she didn't have time to work.

Do you want to go back? Heshia thought for a while. Grandma He also suggested her to go out for a walk just now. It seems too dark to stay at home all the time, and I don’t know where it’s fun to go out by myself. Why don’t I go with my classmates...

Although I think so, for her former classmates, Heshia actually doesn't want to act together, and she will inevitably be ridiculed by everyone, and she can't talk to her, but if she goes out alone, she is indeed a bit lonely...

What a contradiction, Hercia shook her head and started typing

[Well, rest tomorrow, where are you going? ]

ask first

Received a reply shortly.

[Isn’t there a new immersive movie recently, let’s go watch it together, go shopping in the pedestrian street, and then go to sing]

Watching a movie, this Heshia is not against it, as for the last singing, she will automatically ignore it, then find a chance to leave early, let her sing in front of everyone, it is too shameful, and she has not learned much Singing, my sister is good at these.

[Okay, what time do you gather]

[At 1:30 p.m., gather at Xuanjing Street, go to the movies first, then go shopping and eat, and go to sing at night]

[OK]

After making an appointment, Heshia put down her personal terminal and lay down on the bed. After taking a nap with her eyes closed, she suddenly sat up again, opened the personal terminal on the side, and found the official website of the academy for admissions.

Irene Academy, the list of students for the re-examination...hasn't it been announced yet, Heshia is a little disappointed, logically speaking, it should be within a few days.

Edsi Academy, the blue and black rose flower pattern rotates. After opening the gorgeous interface, it shows that Hercia has insufficient authority and cannot enter the browsing. Only a few external announcements and publicity can be seen, which only introduces the regulations for this year’s enrollment , no admission list was given.

There is no result yet...

I have to keep working hard, Hercia, the girl said to herself.

Although I have awakened my talent, I still have a long way to go in life.

...

The girl wrote down today's experiences and thoughts in the diary, and then slowly closed it.
