The casual life of the flat space

"Dad is right! What are you laughing at, sister?" Bai Tiexiong suddenly said.

“Hahahahahaha…” This time it was Grandpa Wu who laughed, but Bai Tieying grabbed his ears and said, “If you dare to run away from home, I will break your legs!”

Bai Tiexiong immediately hugged his sister and said, "No, I won't leave!"

"Hahaha...you two sisters..."

"You really are worthy of being my father's eldest son!" Bai Tieying answered while rubbing Bai Tiexiong's ears and said, "And then?"

Grandpa Wu paused. Why did he feel that Tieying's words were wrong? But he didn't think about it any more and replied, "What else can it be? Your uncle Chen couldn't persuade him. He went back to call the adults. When your grandfather caught up with him, he was almost on the official road!"

"Hiss..." Bai Tieying sucked his teeth, "I didn't expect my dad to run so fast!"

"You kid! You really... you really are worthy of being your father's great son!"

"You really are my father's good son!" Bai Tieying and Grandpa Wu said in unison.

"I am Daddy's eldest son, and you are Daddy's eldest daughter, sister!"

"Oh, that's enough. I know you can talk. Stop talking!" Bai Tieying immediately covered his brother's mouth.

"What's over?" Bai Tieying asked again.

"That's it! Your grandfather broke another firewood stick! Your father! Although he is a naughty boy in the whole village, he is not a troublemaker. The children in front and behind can play well and will become obedient as they grow up.

最后一次挨揍就是非要娶你娘不可了，那一次是真把你爷爷气坏了，以为他进了趟城被哪个狐狸精迷了眼呢！

Later, your grandfather Wang came to make a visit and confirmed that he was a well-behaved child. Although your grandfather was not happy to have such an in-law and asked for such a high gift, what parent could win over their child?

Later, when your mother got married, I saw that she was really capable and hardworking, and was a good farmer. Gradually, your grandfather stopped being so hostile. When your elder brother died, he came to drink with me and cried, but he said that Suzhen did the right thing and that she was right to break off the relationship with the old Wei family!"

"I can't remember what my grandfather looked like at all..." Bai Tieying couldn't find the appearance of this grandfather in his memory.

"Hey! How old were you when your grandfather passed away? What can you remember? Forget about you. We have been together for half our lives. It's only been a few years. I can't remember it either!"

"Grandpa Wu, don't be sad. It doesn't matter if you don't remember what he looked like. As long as we don't forget him and what he did for us, he will always be here!"

"Haha, kid, do I need you to comfort me? My life can be summed up in three words: be open-minded!"

"Grandpa Wu, can you tell us your story?"

"Hmph, how long have you been thinking about it? I'm tired today and don't want to talk about it. If you don't tell me, can you move the books? It will take more than ten days to move so many books, right? I told your grandmother Wu that I would be back in five days."

"Hehe... I promise to let you go home on time. Besides, you can't stay here that long. Grandpa Wu, don't you ask me?"

"Didn't I tell you that I can let it go? The best way to let it go is to remember nothing! To know nothing!"

"High! It's really high! My admiration for you is like the endless torrent of rivers..."

"Hey, hurry up, stop being so long-winded!"

"Then you should have a good rest!" Bai Tieying turned around and said to Bai Tiexiong, "Come on, help me move the books!"

Although she couldn't get the exact story from Grandpa Wu, Bai Tieying felt that she could roughly guess it from the things in the tall building and the cave. And the story carved on the hanging belt and the houses in the village, weren't they also good evidence?

Before, she thought that Grandpa Wu’s stories were nothing more than family traditions or some adventures, and she also guessed that Grandpa Wu was going to bring her to get the books, because Grandpa Wu didn’t know how much money she had, and the cost of buying books was not low. The five books in her hand alone cost eight taels of silver.

She originally thought that she could return the books she collected to Grandpa Wu in other ways in the future. But she didn't expect that the amount she had to face was not something that an ordinary person could collect.

What's more, by bringing the two sisters on this trip, Grandpa Wu was revealing his biggest secret to them. So he must have been struggling and thinking in his heart. How could he let Grandpa Wu down?

When the siblings returned to the "Hongwen" courtyard after many detours, Bai Tieying came to her senses and said to her brother, "Tiexiong, we'll talk about it later. Now I need you to help me open the mechanisms in front of each box. Can you do it?"

"Okay, sister, I can do it!" Bai Tiexiong immediately became excited when he heard that he could operate the mechanism.

Bai Tieying said no more. On the way here, she had already figured out where to put these things, and she just had to wait for the experiment to begin!

After two "clicks", the first box opened. Bai Tieying thought about it, and the books inside disappeared, while the books in the cabinet were neatly arranged in the 3D bookcase in the space.

"Oh yeah! It really works!"

Bai Tieying had always felt that this space was always trying to drain her, so it was impossible for her to work in vain, but she hadn't figured out what she could do. This time, she finally saw the money coming back, and it was worth it for her to always struggle on the verge of fainting.

The white iron bear next to him covered his mouth and shouted in his heart: "Sister is so awesome! Sister is so awesome!" He did have a lot of questions he wanted to ask his sister, but when he saw that his sister had already started to close the box door, he hurried to open the next box.

The two sisters cooperated well and collected half of the crops in just over an hour. Bai Tieying asked Bai Tiexiong to take a rest and eat something.

Bai Tiexiong stared blankly at the pile of food in front of him for a while, then looked up at his sister, not knowing where to start to greet her.

"Tiexiong, do you remember the time when your sister fell asleep and you couldn't wake her up?" Seeing Bai Tiexiong nod, Bai Tieying continued:

"That time, my sister saw my parents in her dream. They said a lot to me, including asking me to take good care of you. When they left, I gained some special powers. But these powers only guarantee our survival, not to make us dependent on them.

You see, you have to spend money to buy food, and you have to cook when you are hungry. In short, I have a place to store things and a place to hide temporarily when in danger, do you understand?"

Seeing Bai Tiexiong nod, Bai Tieying warned again: "I didn't tell you before because I was afraid that you would not be able to resist showing off to others or let it slip. There is a saying that goes, 'A man is innocent unless he has a treasure in his possession', which means that if you have good things, you should not publicize them everywhere, in case someone with bad intentions finds out and hurts you.

Maybe this is why my parents gave this matter to me. After all, I am older than you and know more. I hope you won’t blame my parents and sister for this matter. "
