In my 40s, the trading system took me flying

Xu Xiaoya had no interest in ancestor worship. She just felt that after returning to her hometown, the plot that was about to kill her at any time finally disappeared.

It is probably because they left the vicinity of the heroine, and the plot gave up on plotting against her.

Xu Xiaoya didn't want to think about these complicated things at all. She nestled in Old Lady Xu's arms, listening to her father talk about his experiences over the past two years, and fell asleep in a daze.

Since awakening her memory of the plot, Xu Xiaoya has never been so relaxed, which caused her to sleep particularly long this time.

When she regained consciousness, she was choked awake.

A very strong smell of smoke rushed straight to her head, mixed with the smell of cheap incense and candles. Xu Xiaoya coughed twice before opening her eyes.

"Is Xiaoya awake?"

Old Mrs. Xu held her little granddaughter in her arms and tried hard to adjust her expression. Her face, which usually didn't smile, was not very adaptable to this change, causing the wrinkles on her face to become somewhat deformed. Fortunately, they were finally stacked together to form a smiling face.

Xu Xiaoya rubbed her eyes with her white and tender fingers and responded with a milky voice, which really warmed the heart of Old Mrs. Xu. This was simply the granddaughter of her dreams, a lucky doll.

"grandmother!"

With the sound of her baby's gurgling voice, Old Mrs. Xu wished she could pick the moon from the sky and put it in her arms.

"Oh, grandma's dear grandson, are you hungry?"

Old Mrs. Xu touched Xu Xiaoya's little hand and was about to go find something to eat for her.

Old man Xu, who was still holding three incense sticks in his hand, scolded in a low voice: "Come on, little girl, we are offering incense to our ancestors!"

After Old Man Xu's reminder, Old Lady Xu finally reacted and realized that it was not suitable to go out now, so she hugged Xu Xiaoya and rocked her twice.

"My dear grandson, bear with me for a while. After we offer incense to our ancestors, we'll go eat some delicious egg custard!"

Xu Xiaoya bit her fingers. She was indeed hungry, but she knew it was not the right time to cry, so she nodded obediently. Her big black eyes were full of cuteness, which was so adorable.

The more Old Lady Xu watched, the happier she became, and her resentment towards her youngest son for finding a daughter-in-law of unknown identity dissipated.

It is called an ancestral hall, but it is actually just a stone house with only an altar table and many tablets on it.

The ancestors of the Xu family are all enshrined in this ancestral hall. In addition, Old Man Xu stayed deep in the mountains to guard the old house, so only their family worships their ancestors.

So the only people kneeling in the ancestral hall were the men of the Xu family, and the only women were Old Lady Xu and Xu Xiaoya, and none of the daughters-in-law came in.

In addition to the incense burner in front, there were four bowls and plates on the low altar where the incense burner was placed: a plate of dry biscuits, a plate of bacon, a plate of shriveled pastries, and a plate of wild fruits.

As soon as Old Man Xu put the incense on the incense burner, he took Xu Xiaoya from Old Lady Xu's hands and prepared to introduce Xu Xiaoya to the ancestors. But before he could say anything, he saw Xu Xiaoya's hand reaching for the wild fruits on the altar.

"Don't touch this, it's a tribute to our ancestors!"

Old man Xu hugged Xu Xiaoya and was about to pull her little hand away, but he saw that the plate of wild fruits that Xu Xiaoya touched disappeared out of thin air.

If Old Man Xu hadn't been kneeling on the ground, he would have thrown Xu Xiaoya out.

Old Mrs. Xu next to her screamed and covered her mouth.

She rubbed her eyes vigorously and looked at Old Man Xu hurriedly: "Dad, did you see it?"

Old Man Xu hugged Xu Xiaoya tightly. Before he could respond, his five sons, kneeling behind him, had no idea what was happening. Xu Twelve, who was kneeling at the back, exclaimed, "It's gone! The fruit is gone!"

The fruit on that plate was picked by a few of them in the mountains. They were reluctant to eat it, so it was taken out today to make up the number. After the worship was over, they would have to share it.

So Xu Shier kept staring at the fruits, and he watched the whole process.

Xu Xiaoya, the instigator, was not in a much better condition at this time. She was more panicked than anyone else present.

Although she had been wondering whether there would be any golden fingers when she was reincarnated with the memories of her past life since she awakened her memories, she no longer had any hope for golden fingers after a series of misfortunes almost cost her her life.

I never thought that I would have such an unexpected surprise when I returned to my hometown.

She looked at her fingers in amazement, and tried frantically in her mind, such as system space and so on, and called out all the golden fingers she remembered, but there was no response.

It seems that this golden finger is a bit weird.

"Xiaoya, where did you put the fruit?"

Old man Xu hurriedly asked Xu Xiaoya in his arms, but Xu Xiaoya had no idea.

She pouted and looked like she was about to cry.

The fruit can also be eaten. Although she knows that this is a completely different time and space from the era she lived in, the plot of the book explains that the background of this era is close to the Republic of China period of her time, and it was the most chaotic period. Natural disasters and wars occurred together, and it was common for ordinary people to go hungry.

So she destroyed all the edible fruits. As you can imagine, Xu Xiaoya felt very guilty.

When Old Mrs. Xu saw that Xu Xiaoya was about to cry, she hurriedly took her away from Old Man Xu's arms.

"Don't cry, dear grandson. It's just a plate of fruit. It's okay. Grandma will find it for you!"

Xu Twelve shrank his neck in the back, totally unable to believe that this was still his grandmother. Normally, if they dared to waste a little food, his grandmother would break his legs, but the little sister just made a whole plate of fruit disappear, and his grandmother could still coax them.

It turns out that girls are favored over boys!

Not to mention the inner thoughts of the Xu family's grandchildren, let's just talk about Xu Xiaoya lying dejectedly in Old Lady Xu's arms.

Looking at Xu Xiaoya's expression, Old Man Xu realized that his reaction was a bit scary. It was just a plate of wild fruits. If it was gone, it was gone. His granddaughter was the most important.

Before introducing Xu Xiaoya to the ancestors, Old Man Xu didn't dare to hold Xu Xiaoya in his arms, for fear of scaring his little granddaughter to tears. So he asked Old Lady Xu to hold Xu Xiaoya and place her next to the altar so that he could continue to recite her.

As a result, Old Mrs. Xu was very cold, and because of her nervousness, her hand slipped and she failed to hold Xu Xiaoya tightly, causing Xu Xiaoya to sit down on the altar.

It was originally a small mistake and no one would take it seriously, but when Xu Xiaoya fell on the altar, a quilt appeared out of nowhere and covered Xu Xiaoya. Because the quilt was a bit big, it wrapped Xu Xiaoya and rolled under the altar.

At this time, not only Old Man Xu, but also Old Youngest Xu and the others were panicked. They quickly stood up and rushed over to check.

Fortunately, the quilt was not heavy, and Xu Xiaoya was pressed under the quilt and was not injured.

Xu Laoya didn't care where the quilt came from, but pulled Xu Xiaoya out of the quilt.

He hurriedly checked and confirmed that Xu Xiaoya was not injured, then he breathed a sigh of relief.

If no problem is found at this time, the Xu family should go down to meet their ancestors.

"The ancestors have appeared?"

Xu Dazhu lowered his voice and shouted excitedly.

Old Man Xu was indeed a very experienced man, and he immediately scolded him, "What nonsense are you talking about? Our ancestors are watching us!"

This matter is too weird.

If the ancestors appeared, why had they offered sacrifices to them so many times, and why had there never been such a situation?

"It must be because my sister came back without a quilt, so the old man gave it to her!"

Xu Twelve sniffed and shouted excitedly.

This speculation made everyone focus their attention on Xu Xiaoya.

But at this time, Xu Xiaoya was just smiling foolishly with a few small teeth showing.

She finally knew what the golden finger was, how could she not be excited?

It’s just that her language system is still underdeveloped and she can’t speak much for the time being.

It has to be said that Xu Laoyao and his wife had a very difficult life. Although they tried their best to raise Xu Xiaoya, life was too difficult and Xu Xiaoya was still a little malnourished.

As a result, Xu Xiaoya's vocal system is underdeveloped, and she can only say one or two words. In order to save energy, so far, Xu Xiaoya can only call mother, grandma, and the word "hold".

No matter how shocked the Xu family was, they couldn't calm down because something appeared out of nowhere and was scarier than a monster.

It was Xu Laoyao who set his sights on his daughter. He had been traveling around with his uncle over the years and had heard a lot of strange stories and rumors, so he had some guesses.

"Xiaoya, did you do this?"

Xu Laoyao opened his mouth tentatively, but Xu Xiaoya did not answer him, but just reached out to reach the altar.

Xu Laoyao glanced at Old Man Xu, who nodded, and Xu Laoyao carried Xu Xiaoya closer to the altar.

Xu Xiaoya placed her hand on the plate of bacon, and then the bacon disappeared.

Compared to the disappearance of the wild fruits before, this time everyone in the Xu family saw it, and their eyes widened as big as copper bells.

Ignoring the exclamations that came one after another, Xu Xiaoya lay down on the altar. When Xu Xiaoya touched the altar, she saw a pair of big cotton shoes appear out of thin air in her arms.

It really appeared out of nowhere.

A plate of bacon disappeared and a pair of big cotton shoes appeared.

She always felt something was wrong, but Old Lady Xu couldn't help but pick up the big cotton shoes and check them to confirm that they were really cotton shoes.

"Dad, these shoes are really made of cotton. They're better than the ones you have on your feet. They have rubber soles, so they're not afraid of water!"

Old Mrs. Xu had only seen this kind of cotton shoes in the city, but because they had to be covered with rubber, they couldn't afford it.

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Xu Xiaoya, as if they wanted to find out the reason from her, but no matter how they asked, Xu Xiaoya could not say a word, and even fell asleep in Xu Laoya's arms.

After all the excitement slowly subsided, Old Man Xu realized that such a strange thing must not be leaked.

"Kneel down and swear to our ancestors that you will not tell anyone anything you saw today, or they will take you away!"

Old Man Xu knelt before his ancestors and forced his sons and grandsons to swear an oath.

Fortunately, all the sons in the family are honest, except for the youngest son Xu Laoyao who is a little smart. However, Xu Xiaoya is his daughter, and Xu Laoyao will definitely not cheat his daughter.

"Dad, don't worry. If anyone in our family dares to say anything nonsense, I'll be the first to chop him up and feed him to the dogs!"

Xu Laoyao's eyes were sharp, and the fierceness he had developed from years of wandering around outside was now revealed for the sake of his daughter.

"Okay, they're all Xu's children, don't you know their personalities?"

Old Mrs. Xu looked at the big quilt and then at her granddaughter, with a complicated expression.

"Is this rumor true?"

After being reminded by Old Mrs. Xu, Old Man Xu also remembered a rumor in the family!
