Nothing strange happened in the next few days. Mo Xiao thought that after monsters lived in his house, and he was becoming more and more non-human, even if he couldn't get rid of the daily necessities of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, at least some things would happen in his life.
Changes, but it turns out that he thought too much.
In addition to eating, drinking and sleeping, Shu Mo spent most of his time "working" in his room. His roar could often be heard downstairs. Even if he came out occasionally, he would stay on the sofa and fight with Patty about the TV. Mo Xiao wanted to bring too much
He went out for a walk. After all, squatting on a chair all day long was bad for his health. But when he thought that monsters could not be treated like ordinary people, he gave up the idea. As long as others were happy, why would he cause trouble if he had nothing to do?
As for the cat demon girl, apart from cooking and studying every day, she likes to quietly transform into her original form when she has nothing to do, lying on the air conditioner to bask in the sun. In the past two days, she has gained another hobby. She has circled a small plot of land in the courtyard downstairs and planted some seeds.
Serving vegetables, although life is simple, she enjoys it.
Mo Xiao also noticed that since she moved into her home, some wild cats would run into the yard from time to time. Whenever this happened, the cat demon girl would throw some leftover food to them. Now there are two cats permanently living here.
I don’t know what it will look like over time.
As for Patty, her biological clock has gradually moved closer to that of the others since she moved in. She is the most laid-back one in the family. She lies on the sofa every day and catches up on dramas. She has watched at least seven or eight dramas by herself, without repeating them from morning to night.
Yes, Mo Xiao tried to find a TV series she watched and watched a few episodes. She was immediately addicted to it. The soap opera full of sour smell was simply a kind of torture, with all kinds of pretentiousness and artificiality. Except for one actor
His face and acting skills are really hard to say, so he doesn’t understand why this girl likes this tone? Even if she likes animation, it’s ten thousand times better than this.
At least there are occasionally some animations with profound ideas.
Of course, Patty would occasionally get into the room where the arms were kept. Whenever this happened, Mo Xiao would come over and play around with her, gaining knowledge along the way. You can't refuse a man's romance.
Anyway, after the monsters lived in the house, there were not many changes overall. It was not much different from the daily life that Mo Xiao was familiar with. On the contrary, compared with the previous human period, the house was much more lively. There were people with him when eating, and there were people after eating.
Help with cleaning up, and have company whenever you want to chat. For example, last night everyone got together to watch a comedy movie. The warmth was something I couldn't feel when I went from house to house without knowing each other.
In addition to the increased thinking ability, the pendant strengthened by the hand of the gods has no other changes currently. Thanks to the fact that the pendant cannot speak, even if he learns to think, he is usually quiet, and quarreling with others seems to be his hobby.
But as long as you put him in your pocket, everything will be fine and it will stop soon.
"Landlord, let's go shopping. We've run out of ingredients at home." Ye Xiaoying opened the refrigerator and told Mo Xiao that what she said was true.
Mo Xiao glanced at it, "Hey guys, the refrigerator was empty, not even an egg could be found." But then he thought about it, half a month had passed since the first day Shu Mo and the cat demon girl moved in, and during that time, Mo Xiao
Once when I was out for a walk, I saw a discount in the supermarket and bought some ingredients. I should have finished eating them after such a long time.
"You should have told me earlier. No wonder you had three noodles yesterday. I thought you were addicted to noodles."
Mo Xiao then gently closed the refrigerator door: "It looks like we've finished eating the noodles."
The cat demon girl smiled in embarrassment. She took care of the cooking, and she was originally responsible for the kitchen. She originally thought of going shopping by herself, but when she went out, she discovered a problem: she didn't know the way.
"Okay, when are you leaving? Now?"
The cat girl nodded.
Mo Xiao looked at the pajamas on his body and said, "Then wait for me and I'll change my clothes."
Tell me about your life. You rarely go out all day long, and you don’t even bother to change into your pajamas at home.
...
After more than half a month has passed, the aftermath of the murder incident at the Nongfu Market has gradually receded, and normal working order has now returned. Although the residual fear still exists because the case has not been solved, the market business is far from as good as before.
Market management has intensified its efforts and hired new security guards. Moreover, many merchants outside the market have installed new security doors. The protection is not lax.
"Oh, this is the market. It's convenient. You can find meat and vegetables... Oh, and you can also buy seasonings. It's so complete!"
As soon as she entered the market gate, the cat demon girl was so excited. If Mo Xiao hadn't grabbed her wrist tightly, no one would have been able to see her now.
"There should have been one in a market more than a hundred years ago, right? What was it like?" Mo Xiao asked curiously.
"The market...it has all kinds of religions and everything. It is usually concentrated on one street. The street is not so flat. There are places selling goods on both sides. Noodles such as steamed buns, pancakes and vegetables and fruits are the main ones. Although there are many people,
But there are very few people who are really willing to spend money to buy them. Most of them are just for viewing. Meat is a luxury product. It is not just a simple stall like this. Instead, there are specialized butcher shops selling it. Ordinary people have it during the New Year.
It’s hard to have a meal during the holidays, but occasionally you’ll meet a juggling troupe and you can join in the fun.”
After saying so much in one breath, Ye Xiaoying took a moment and concluded: "In short, it was very chaotic, very poor, very dirty, very smelly, there were many people, and it was also dirty. It was not a good time, unlike now.
...Life is so rich."
"So, if you just sleep and travel to a hundred years later to live a good life, you have to thank the pendant properly." Mo Xiao said jokingly.
"I really should thank him. Not only did he save my life, but I was also able to see this prosperous age like a paradise." Unexpectedly, Ye Xiaoying was very serious. She knew that the mysterious pendant could hear it.
...Mo Xiao was silent for a moment. He had never experienced that era, so naturally he didn't understand how the cat demon girl felt, so he quickly changed the topic: "Why did you want to be an imperial chef in the first place?"
Mo Xiao, who had studied modern history, had no fondness for the Queen Mother a hundred years ago. When he thought that the cat demon girl had cooked for her, he felt panicked.
"In order not to be hungry." Ye Xiaoying said an answer that Mo Xiao never thought of without thinking, "For this reason, I also took steps to conceal my gender. At that time, women were not allowed to cook."<
/p>
"You can take out a gold ingot at random, but you can't have enough to eat?"
Mo Xiao looked unbelievable.
"That gold ingot... I got it from an old landlord. I kept it for a long time and couldn't bear to use it. In fact, it's just that piece."
"What about the Qing Dynasty treasure banknotes? I remember that the Qing Dynasty treasure banknotes are also very valuable, right? You can take out a few of them at will."
"That was stolen. It was when the coalition forces entered the city, and the emperor and queen mother were all fleeing. Naturally, we cooks were left unattended. We originally thought of finding a way to live in seclusion and wait for the situation to get better, but the result... you all know." Ye Xiaoying suddenly sighed: "What a bad luck. I stole money once in my life, but it expired before I could use it..."
Mo Xiao suddenly felt an unspeakable emotion rising from the bottom of his heart. The ordinary daily life they were spending now might have been an unimaginable miracle at the time.
