Jihuan's family is trying hard to adapt to this new world.
After eating "bone" soup for 18 consecutive days, Jihuan finally stopped nosebleeds at all. He felt a little stronger. Besides, he began to speak a little local language. Ajin even gave him a gift. A dictionary, it is a fairly thick book, A Jin took it out from the study upstairs. Although the version is very old, it is what Ji Huan urgently needs now. Ji Huan is now using it to cope with it. The attitude of the college entrance examination English overcomes the language difficulties of the other world. Every day I don’t say 200 words, and I insist on going to the market to practice listening. After more than half a month, Jihuan’s language ability has improved by leaps and bounds;
Heidan has another tooth, which is also the upper tooth, and it is also very sharp. Jihuan didn't realize it at first, but he accidentally bit the pacifier when he was drinking from the bottle. He brought a lot of black eggs, and he had several replacement pacifiers. The black egg who got the new pacifier is more careful when sucking the milk. Seeing him like this, Ji Huan is a little relieved and a little worried. He is glad that the black egg is easy to raise, but he is worried that he is getting bigger and bigger, but his favorite food Or neinei, how can this be done;
Then it was Grandpa: the wound on Grandpa's body finally began to heal gradually! This means that his body has regained its repair function. Grandpa's strength is getting stronger day by day. What surprised Jihuan the most is that Grandpa's eyesight has begun to improve!
Although Grandpa was not completely blind before, he saw nothing but white shadows. As his body continued to weaken, the white shadows were gradually replaced by darkness. However, after eating monster meat for a period of time, Grandpa can see things again! However, the sequelae is that things are a little blurry, and the distance is slightly better, and the close range is very blurry.
This problem was finally solved by Ji Huan with a pair of reading glasses.
=-=
The reading glasses were bought from the booth of the short little monster.
Jihuan is now his regular customer. Although he has never offered discounted services, Jihuan always goes to his stall every time he goes to the market. After discovering that grandpa had become presbyopia, Jihuan especially wanted to get a pair of reading glasses for grandpa to wear. However, reading glasses that can be bought for fifteen yuan in Bade Town are not found anywhere here!
During that time, Jihuan asked almost all the booths, and all received negative answers. In the end, when Jihuan almost gave up hope, he suddenly saw two pairs of glasses at the booth of "Xiaohui".
"Xiao Hui" is the short monster. I don't know his name. Every time Ji Huan mentions him, he uses this name instead.
There were no "bones" on Xiaohui's booth that day, only two pairs of tattered glasses, one with a broken leg, and the other with a broken lens.
Xiaohui's business was not good in the first place. He only put out these two things that day, and his booth was even less popular until Jihuan arrived.
Ji Huan squatted down, and when he stuttered and asked Xiao Hui if he could take a look, he got a nod from the other side.
Ji Huan then picked up the two pairs of glasses and looked at them. What surprised him was that the pair of glasses with one broken lens was a pair of short-sighted glasses, and the pair of glasses with a broken leg was exactly the one he couldn't find anywhere. reading glasses!
"Now that you've met, buy it." A Jin's voice came from beside him, and Ji Huan turned his head, only to find that A Jin was also squatting down, not caring that the clean cloaks were all hanging on the ground, he spared Interestedly, he picked up the pair of reading glasses in Ji Huan's hand.
"How much?" He suddenly raised his head and asked the little monster opposite.
Ah Jin's voice was the same as usual, and the person on the other side couldn't see his face through the thick cloak. However, when he raised his head to ask questions, Ji Huan found that Xiao Hui on the opposite side had disappeared!
Only a stall drawn by a paw on the ground was left, and Xiao Hui's figure disappeared without a trace!
A Jin's jaw turned slightly to the left, and looking in that direction, Ji Huan saw a panicked Xiao Hui at a certain booth.
"ΨαВΔ!!" He fled too hastily, and the destination he chose was too out of place: it happened to fall on the prey that was being sold! The stall owner started chasing people and was thrown off the prey. Xiao Hui rolled on the ground and quickly stood up again.
He seemed to look in the direction of Jihuan, walked around the crowd for a long time, and finally chose to return to his booth.
"You... make an offer." This is the first time Ji Huan has heard Xiao Hui's voice, the voice is very immature, he is actually just a child!
Ji Huan was stunned.
"You are very smart." A Jin's voice came from next to him, but he was praising the little monster: "Such a pair of glasses was originally worth a gold bar or equivalent, although it is not easy to sell in this place, but Once you find a buyer, you can drive to two gold bars or more, but…”
Ajin paused, then continued: "I only give you twenty bone coins, and you want both pairs of glasses. Would you sell them?"
Ji Huan was a little surprised and looked at A Jin: This is the first time he has heard A Jin haggling. A Jin who never haggles is so ruthless!
During this period of time, Ajin has given him a lot of common sense of local living. For example, the original world's "gold" is also a very precious metal here, and it can be used as a coin, and no one will refuse it, but in the Yefar area there is still its own independent currency system. They usually buy meat with The "bright" is the most basic unit, called "bone coin", which means roughly the same as "bone". The base is large and worthless. According to the current exchange rate, one thousand bone coins is about equal to one gold bar.
Ah Jin chopped the 2,000 bone coins down to 20 in one fell swoop!
This, this also-
"Okay." What's even more incredible is that Xiao Hui actually agreed.
A Jin took out twenty bone coins from his pocket, Xiao Hui took them and immediately turned to go to the water booth next door. This time he got a total of a glass of water. Carrying it back, he immediately drank the glass of water as usual.
Then the figure flashed, and Xiao Hui quickly disappeared from Ji Huan's sight again.
On the way back, Ji Huan carefully recalled the conversation between A Jin and Xiao Hui, and slowly, he also figured out why this business was done:
As A Jin said, Xiao Hui is very smart.
Hearing his voice, he knew that he was still a child, and felt A Jin's strength. Although the goods belonged to him, he did not have the right to make a price. It would be best for A Jin to set the price.
Otherwise, it is very likely that the situation when the candy was sold last time: the candy was almost snatched away, and finally got a bone coin after being beaten up.
Pricing by Ajin is the most correct choice.
So Ah Jin said he was "very smart" and gave him the most suitable price.
Not the best, but the most appropriate.
A rare piece of candy can’t be kept. Xiaohui should be considered very weak among monsters. In fact, you can see from the prey he sells. In this market, Xiaohui should be the lowest level of monsters. He can’t keep things that are too valuable. , so every time you buy water, you will drink it immediately, and what you drink in your stomach is your own, and the rest will be ignored.
Ajin gave him a glass of bone coins, just enough to keep him full without leaving any leftovers. The bone coins were clean and the water was all drank. For Xiao Hui, this is what he owns. Safest category.
At the same time, A Jin also popularized the correct price of this kind of goods to him. For Xiao Hui, this should be considered very useful information, right
After thinking about it, Jihuan felt that he had learned something again.
The monsters here are really not simple. If he wants to live here, he must be more secure!
With two pairs of glasses, a little spiritual gain, and some food, Jihuan and Ajin returned home.
The two pairs of glasses are very old, and the other is very new, with black and gray on them. Thinking that the blood of monsters will quickly turn into black and gray when it encounters the air, Jihuan can't help but guess that these are probably... maybe... should be is blood.
Ji Huan did not continue to think about it.
After carefully cleaning the glasses, Jihuan took off one leg of the myopia glasses, and then connected it to the pair of reading glasses. After careful adjustment, after thinking about it, he also found a rope to tie the two mirrors respectively. leg.
Grandpa will deform from time to time, so that Grandpa will not lose his glasses when he is deformed.
Jihuan thought a lot.
Although the degree is not completely suitable, the grandfather with glasses finally sees the world clearly again.
"Xiao Hua'er, you've lost weight!" Grandpa was very happy when he saw his grandson again. He looked at Jihuan carefully from top to bottom, and then he saw Jihuan's back looking at him. of black eggs.
"Black Egg... It's really dark..." Unaccustomed to holding up his glasses, Grandpa looked carefully at Black Egg.
Thinking that Grandpa was complimenting himself, the black egg laughed, and the two small teeth were all exposed.
"We can't use dark sheets in the future, and don't take black eggs to places that are too dark. If you look a little bad, you can't see it at all." Holding the black eggs, Grandpa and Jihuan said. , Ji Huan looked at the grandfather who looked up desperately and seemed to be worried that the glasses would fall, and finally showed a long-lost smile.
He never knew whether his choice was right or wrong. Maybe in the eyes of other people, everything he did was wrong, but he still did it, he followed his inner choice, he did it resolutely, and now, when he saw Grandpa smiling at him again, he felt I did nothing wrong myself.
The family of three adapted to the local life day by day. Later, my grandfather also started to go to the market with them. Every time I went to the market, it was like Taobao, although most of the time I could see ordinary things. However, I can occasionally "snap leaks". Jihuan bought a small bag of seeds of local vegetables. I don't know what seeds are, but the seller said that it is absolutely edible. In addition, Jihuan also got a few flower seeds.
Thinking of the "weeds" he had destroyed in the yard, Jihuan immediately bought them. A Jin said that the reason why he planted those weeds was because he heard that those weeds would bloom. So, A Jin should be For those who like flowers, Jihuan immediately thought of the water lilies planted in the yard in Bade Town. The water resources here are too precious. Water lilies are impossible. With a bang, Ji Huan finally planted these flower seeds carefully in the corridor by the door, which is the lot next to the reclining chair where A Jin usually reads newspapers. In this way, if the flowers really bloom in the future, A Jin can sit next to the flowers. Read a book.
Jihuan's plan was very good. He didn't tell Ajin about his plan, he just thought that Ajin would know when the flower grew. However, what he did not expect was that A Jin suddenly bid him farewell.
That morning, Ajin got up early in the morning and came out to read the newspaper as usual. Only the last one was left in the thick stack of newspapers. tell him:
"I bought a Kom beast today. It's a little fatter. It will be braised in the evening."
This is his first order.
Ajin never said what he wanted to eat, Jihuan could only figure it out by himself. This is the first time he has made it clear what he wants to do.
"A Kom beast, okay, I see." Ji Huan nodded and continued to put on his shoes.
"There are guests coming in the evening, so I'll ask you for dinner." Chao Ji smiled happily, and A Jin continued to read the newspaper.
guest
After living here, Ji Huan has never seen any guests. Although A Jin is very familiar with this place, he has never seen A Jin have acquaintances here.
But Jihuan was not surprised.
Ah Jin should have lived here before. Although he didn't understand why he went to live there, he knew from what he knew about this place that Ah Jin's hometown should be here, or even this neighborhood!
If you think about it this way, it seems quite normal that someone will visit him after knowing that Jin is back.
On this day, Jihuan bought the best Kom beast on the market, and together with his grandfather, he carefully carried it home.
This Kom beast was made into a big pot of braised pork, Jihuan used its bones to make soup, and finally made some small dishes with the meat of other beasts. The large and small plates were placed on the dining table in the living room on the first floor. , Ji Huan also found the candlestick and put it on the table.
The family went to eat in the house, and Ji Huan left the first floor to A Jin.
A Jin did not object to his arrangement. Sitting alone at one end of the dining table, he read a book while waiting for his guests.
He has read all the newspapers, and now he is reading Heidan's literacy book for young children. When he was looking through his luggage two days ago, Ji Huan accidentally realized that he had brought an extra copy.
Jihuan's family was eating quietly next door, and while eating, Jihuan looked at his watch.
However, the guests did not arrive until they finished their meal.
Worrying that going out would affect A Jin, Ji Huan didn't go out to wash the dishes. After eating, the family immediately lay on the bed together. They looked at Ziyue outside together through the window.
Only when he sees the moon at night will Jihuan truly feel that he has arrived at a brand new place.
Inside and outside the house, everything was quiet.
Grandpa fell asleep.
Heidan played with Jihuan's fingers, his eyelids drooping and he was about to fall asleep.
suddenly-
As if he felt something, Hei Dan's white eyes suddenly widened, and he stared straight at his uncle, Ji Huan patted his back lightly, and couldn't help looking towards the living room.
coming!
The guest is here!
Although I didn't hear any movement, and although I couldn't see anything, Ji Huan knew that at that moment, there was one more person in the house.
