When Ling Sha entered the room, she found the two little ones eating candies. These candies were all bought by them for Little Yu 'er. Now that Tian Niu was the shopkeeper, his salary was not low. In Emerald City, he was considered a rich man. There was no problem for his daughter to eat some food.
However, in the past, Little Yu 'er would not be so generous to take out candies for others to eat. Ling Sha did not expect that he would actually take out the candies and share them with Little Crane Grass. This was somewhat out of Ling Sha's expectation.
However, Ling Sha was very happy to see the two getting along so well. Although Ling Sha was not from Tree Root Village, she was also from a village not far from Tree Root Village. Her skin was not so good in the past. It was only after she came to the city and stopped doing farm work that her skin slowly became better. Therefore, she did not look down on the people of Tree Root Village at all. On the contrary, she was very interested in Little Crane Grass.
In the Soul World, there was also a saying that when a man achieves the Dao, his chickens and dogs will also ascend to heaven. Little Crane Grass was from Tree Root Village. If he became successful in the future, he would definitely take care of Tree Root Village. She was the daughter-in-law of Tree Root Village. In addition, she had already started to take care of Little Crane Grass. If Little Crane Grass became successful in the future, she would ask Little Crane Grass for help. Little Crane Grass would definitely agree.
Ling Sha looked at the two little ones and said with a smile, "Both of you, don't eat too much candies. Be careful of worms on your teeth. Yu 'er, go play with your Brother Crane Grass. Mummy will go and cook."
Little Yu 'er responded. She took Crane Grass's hand and ran out. As she ran, she said, "Brother Crane Grass, come with me. I will take you to see something fun." As she spoke, the two little ones had already run out of sight.
Ling Sha looked at the two and smiled slightly. She did not speak. She knew that the two little ones could not run out of the courtyard. There were only two entrances and exits in the courtyard. One was the shop in front. They could not run out of the shop. The shop's staff would be watching them. The other was the gate in the courtyard. However, there was an old gatekeeper watching over there. He would definitely not let them go out. Ling Sha was very relieved.
Ling Sha was very respectful towards the Old Doorman. He was the son of the Liu Family and was said to be the servant of one of the Liu Family's masters. However, he was too old and was a Soul Possessor, so he came to this shop to help guard the door. His status in the shop was no less than Tian Niu's.
Tian Niu could only be regarded as a person hired by the Liu Family. However, because he was very clever and knew how to take care of things, the Liu Family promoted him to be the shopkeeper. In fact, the Liu Family didn't care much about this small shop. This was because the Liu Family was not like those guys in Green City. The Liu Family was a large family in Gathering Cloud City. They were very powerful. It was said that the family had several powerful Soul Bearers and even more Soul Bearers. They were much stronger than those small families in Green City.
Currently, Tian Niu was not a servant of the Liu Family. It could be said that he was still in the examination period. If he could pass this examination, then he could become a servant of the Liu Family.
Don't think that being a servant of others was a shameful thing. In fact, in this world where strength was respected, it was natural for the weak to rely on the strong. Even if you were not qualified to rely on the strong, you were not qualified to rely on the strong.
After Little Crane Grass and Little Yu 'er ran out of the house, Little Yu' er pulled Little Crane Grass and ran to the back of the house. Behind the house was a stable. There were several horses in the stable. The old gatekeeper was unloading the carriage that Tian Niu used before. He led the horses to the stable and put the carriage to the side. There were a total of six horses in the backyard. They were all used by the shop to receive goods. There were also six carriages. When they were not in use, they were all placed in the backyard.
Little Yu 'er ran to the backyard. When she saw the old gatekeeper, she loudly said, "Grandpa Gatekeeper, we came to play. Where is my horse?"
When the old gatekeeper heard Little Yu 'er's voice, he immediately turned his head and looked at Little Yu' er with a smile. The old gatekeeper was born as a servant. Although he got married later, his wife died in childbirth. Moreover, the child couldn't be saved. Since then, the old gatekeeper didn't marry again. He had been living alone and didn't have any children. Therefore, he came here to enjoy his old age.
The old gatekeeper had been here for several years. He watched Little Yu 'er grow up little by little. In his eyes, Little Yu' er was the same as his own grandson. Therefore, when he heard Little Yu 'er's voice, he immediately had a smile on his face. Seeing Little Crane Grass pulled by Little Yu' er, the old gatekeeper also had a smile on his face.
Old people didn't like noisy environments. But where there were children, there was no quiet for a moment. However, very few old people would think that their grandson was noisy. The more noisy the child was, the happier they would be.
The old gatekeeper smiled at Little Yu 'er and said, "Yu' er, what's wrong? Do you want to ride your horse again? Wait a moment. Grandpa will take out your horse. " After saying that, the old man walked to a small room at the side and took out a horse, a wooden horse.
This wooden horse was Little Yu 'er's horse. This horse was made by the old gatekeeper for Little Yu' er. Although it was said that the best crafters in this world were Soul Craftsmen, this didn't mean that ordinary people couldn't make things. In fact, some of the lowest level things in this world were made by ordinary Soul Craftsmen. Ordinary people couldn't afford to use the things made by Soul Craftsmen.
The old gatekeeper put the wooden horse on the ground and looked at Little Yu 'er and Little Crane Grass. Little Yu' er cheered and ran to the side of the wooden horse. Then she jumped on the back of the wooden horse and said, "Big Brother, Big Brother Crane Grass, look, this is my horse. It's very fun." As he spoke, he began to sway on the little wooden horse. The little wooden horse also began to sway back and forth.
Little Crane Grass had played with this before. He looked at the wooden horse curiously. At this time, the old gatekeeper looked at Little Crane Grass and said, "You're called Crane Grass, right? Do you want to play with the wooden horse? If you like it, I'll make one for you tomorrow. How about it? "
Little Crane Grass looked at the old gatekeeper and said timidly, "Thank you, Grandpa Gatekeeper."
When the old gatekeeper heard Little Crane Grass being so polite, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Good, good. You're really a good child."
At this time, Little Yu 'er jumped down from the wooden horse. She pulled Little Crane Grass's hand and said, "Big Brother Crane Grass, come and ride it. It's very fun." Little Crane Grass hesitated for a moment, but he couldn't resist the temptation of the wooden horse. He jumped on the wooden horse's back. The wooden horse began to sway back and forth. At this time, Little Crane Grass's temperament suddenly underwent a very subtle change. A faintly discernible aura was emitted from Little Crane Grass's body. Although this aura was very weak, it was very astonishing. Little Yu 'er was a little girl who didn't know anything, so she naturally didn't notice this aura. However, the old gatekeeper did.
The old gatekeeper came from the Liu Clan. The Liu Clan wasn't an ordinary clan. In the Liu Clan, what kind of people hadn't he seen? The old gatekeeper was a servant in the past, so he was very observant. Therefore, although Little Crane Grass's temperament only had a slight change, the old gatekeeper still noticed it.
Although Little Crane Grass was only sitting on the wooden horse, the wooden horse was very refined. The front was a carved horse head that looked very lifelike. On the horse's neck, there was a horizontal rod that was used as a handle. The horse's body was the place where the horse sat, which was also carved into a horse's body. The entire wooden horse looked like a miniature horse.
After Little Crane Grass sat on the wooden horse, his temperament became very astonishing. It was as if he wasn't riding a wooden horse, but a real horse. Moreover, it wasn't an ordinary horse, but a war horse, the best war horse.
The old gatekeeper couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't know why Little Crane Grass had such a temperament. Logically speaking, how could a village kid have such an aura? This kind of aura was something that even those who were nurtured by big clans wouldn't have. What was going on?
At this time, Little Yu 'er cheered and loudly said, "Big Brother Crane Grass, you're great. You're really awe-inspiring when you ride." After being praised by Little Yu 'er, Little Crane Grass was a little embarrassed. The aura on his body also dissipated, making the old gatekeeper think that he had a bad taste. Little Crane Grass jumped down from the wooden horse and let Little Yu 'er ride on it. It was a small wooden horse, but the two children were very happy to play with it.
Just as the two children were playing happily, Ling Sha's voice was heard. "Bao 'er, Yu' er, quickly call your grandfather to come and eat." The two children responded. Little Yu 'er turned around and took the old gatekeeper's hand. "Grandfather Gatekeeper, it's time to eat."
The old gatekeeper responded happily and was led to the front yard by Little Yu 'er. His identity was different from the shop's staff, so every time it was time to eat, Tian Niu and Ling Sha would invite the old gatekeeper to eat with them. From this point, it could be seen that Tian Niu was really good at handling matters. Although Tian Niu didn't seem to be very polite when addressing the old gatekeeper, it was strongly requested by the old gatekeeper because other than Tian Niu, no one in the shop knew his identity. Moreover, the old gatekeeper also knew that in a small shop like this, only one person was in charge, and that person was Tian Niu. If Tian Niu was too polite to him, there might be a situation of two owners in the shop. For such a small shop like this, it was definitely a disaster. Therefore, when the old gatekeeper was with Tian Niu, Tian Niu always addressed him as "Old Gatekeeper" and "Shopkeeper" so that no one could tell anything.
An adult and two children came to the front yard. At this time, Tian Niu had already returned to the backyard from the shop. Although he had left for a few days, everything in the shop was normal. Tian Niu only took a glance and returned to the backyard to eat.
The food in the house was already on the table. As soul bearers, they didn't have as many rules as those big clans. Big clans ate separately for men and women, but for small clans like theirs, they always ate at the same table.
When Tian Niu saw that the old man had brought two fellows over, he quickly stood up and invited the old man to sit down. At this moment, Ling Sha also carried the rice and placed it beside the table. She filled everyone's bowl with rice and sat down as well. The old man looked at Tian Niu and asked in a deep voice, "Shopkeeper, how do you plan to raise this child, Crane Grass?"
