The casual life of the flat space

Bai Tieying thought that their situation might be related to the amount of space well water they drank, or it might also be related to their age.

This kind of enlightenment book is easy to understand and uses many repeated words. Bai Tieying was ten years old, and her memory was improving. The background she brought from her original life could help her understand better, so she naturally memorized the whole book.

As for Bai Tiexiong's situation, she guessed that it was because he understood only the third chapter, but started to have trouble understanding parts from the fourth chapter, so he could not remember the pronunciation and font.

Therefore, the enlightenment effect of well water is an enhancement based on the ability to understand and remember, not that an illiterate person will become as powerful as a supercomputer after drinking well water.

But no matter what the result was, Grandpa Wu was dumbfounded. He thought to himself, the Bai family was really blessed. Why didn't these two children with such great fortune be reincarnated into his Wu family?! If that was the case, he couldn't...

Grandpa Wu didn't seem so serious anymore. He touched Bai Tiexiong's head and said to Bai Tieying:

"Do you need some time to digest this or do you want to continue tomorrow?"

"Let's continue tomorrow! Finish these five books first, and then I can spare some time to take care of the mountain products. By the way, Grandpa Wu, can you give me some pointers on writing?"

Grandpa Wu didn't say anything, but just stretched out his hands for them to see. Bai Tieying's first impression of these hands was that they were very strong, dark, with little flesh and large joints. The more they moved toward the fingertips, the more cracks there were, as well as scars of varying sizes. The edges of the nails were gray-black and slightly yellow. But this was not due to illness, but rather the marks of years left by years of hard work.

There was a new wound on the first joint of the middle finger of the right hand, as if a piece of flesh had been cut off by something, and the wound had just healed and was still tinged with blood. Comparing the left and right hands, the left hand was obviously smaller than the right hand, and the joints were not so obviously distorted.

"Grandpa Wu..." Bai Tieying called out, but didn't know what to say, so he just put his paws, which he often complained with, under the table.

“These hands have fed the family, built houses for the children, helped them get married, and held every grandchild. It’s worth it!

I really can't teach you calligraphy, but I have a lot of books, including many famous calligraphy works, you can copy them first. When can you go up the mountain?"

"Up the mountain?"

"It takes four or five days to go back and forth. Let me know in advance when you can go."

"Then let's do it tomorrow! Aunt Li will bring back some mountain products tonight, and I want to wait for this matter... Well, although I don't know if it will help the villagers in the end, but I want to do it well this time!"

"Okay, I'm leaving now. I'll come back tomorrow."

Bai Tieying said with a smile: "Please wait for a moment, Grandpa Wu. I was so happy just now that I forgot to serve tea. I will go and prepare it now!"

"Oh? I was going to say no, but I didn't know you could order tea?"

"Uh... Grandpa Wu misunderstood. I don't know how to order tea. I just dried some scented tea... I thought it would be more formal this way..." Bai Tieying's voice became lower and lower.

"Haha, go ahead!" Grandpa Wu saw her embarrassment and let her go. I thought it would take a while, but unexpectedly Bai Tieying came back so quickly.

She was holding a tray with a soup pot, two white porcelain bowls, a pair of tweezers and a small dish filled with colorful dried flowers.

Bai Tieying first picked up the small dish and asked which two kinds of dried flowers Grandpa Wu wanted. Grandpa Wu chose thorny roses and honeysuckle. She first rinsed the two porcelain bowls with water from the soup bottle and then poured it out. Then she used tweezers to pick up the flowers and put them in the bowls, rinsed them with water again and poured it out. Finally, she poured most of the tea into the two bowls.

She gestured to Bai Tiexiong to take one of the cups, and she took the lead to toast Grandpa Wu.

"My parents gave me life, my master taught me. May my master live a long life, and I may always listen to his teachings!"

"My parents gave me life, and my master taught me. May my master live a long life. I, your disciple, can... I, your disciple, can... give you a leg massage!"

Bai Tiexiong had learned it well in the beginning, and Bai Tieying was still saying in her heart, "You are worthy of being my brother!" But when he stuttered at the last sentence, Bai Tieying's heart rose to his throat again, fearing that he would say something unpleasant at this time... Haha, well, massaging the legs is also good!

“Hahahahaha… kid! Grandpa only tells you one thing—you must listen to your sister from now on. Got it?”

"I know, Grandpa Wu!" Bai Tiexiong didn't learn the last sentence and thought he would be scolded. But when Grandpa Wu said that, he was happy. He listened to his sister. He always listened to his sister! It's not a big deal!

"Tieying, 'Diligence brings success, playfulness leads to failure; thinking leads to success, carelessness leads to failure.' Especially since you two sisters have such abilities, you must not think too highly of yourselves and become complacent!"

"Thank you, Grandpa Wu. I will always remember your teachings and my wishes!"

"Okay, everyone, get up! Your flower tea is pretty good. It also contains dandelion flowers, locust flowers, wild chrysanthemums... How did you come up with this idea? It tastes pretty good!"

"Before, I was thinking about what we could chew here, so I asked my uncle what herbs there were on the mountain, and my uncle gave me his sketches. I saw that there was one that I picked and dried before because I thought it was beautiful. Just now, I thought I couldn't just pour you a glass of water, so I thought it would look better if I soaked some flowers."

"You are a really smart kid. Your use of tools and methods are unique!"

"Grandpa Wu, please don't say that. I was just tinkering with it."

"Haha, I'm not asking, so you don't need to explain. Just give me some of the flowers you dried, and that'll count as the tuition from you two sisters!"

"Okay, Grandpa Wu, please wait for me!"

Bai Tieying hurried to the back of the room, which was actually the space. After Grandpa Wu said that, she also remembered that she had to pay a tuition fee to become a disciple. She ignored Mu Qingqiu's call and hurriedly packed a basket of various gifts and left the space.

"Grandpa Wu, I've got you some dried flowers of various colors. Please see which ones you like. I'll dry more in the future. Here are some dried fish and meat, perfect for making wine. Next time I go to the county town, I'll bring you some more wine."

"Well, that's enough. You don't need to take any more. You can't always have your ginseng and ganoderma lucidum. You still have to spend money wisely. Let's go. No need to see me off!"

"Grandpa Wu, take care!" Even though they didn't need to see Grandpa off, the Bai Tieying and her sister still saw Grandpa Wu off to the gate of the courtyard before returning.

The two sisters went into the main room again. Bai Tieying reviewed what she had just learned with her brother to make sure that he really understood what she thought. It was only when he couldn't understand the fourth chapter that he couldn't remember it.
