Chapter 8 Grand Occasion

  "Shengyan, your eyes... can you see?!?" Wang Ergou was overjoyed, and in one swift motion, he picked up little Shengyan and spun her around in the air.

  Sheng Siyan giggled and hugged Wang Ergou's head, saying "Let me down! Let me down! - I'm dizzy!" After that, she secretly thought to herself that fortunately she was only five years old, otherwise this classic male-female "spinning" move would be too eye-catching, it wouldn't even allow people not to have wild thoughts...

  Wang Erge didn't know her little thoughts, thinking she had really fainted, and hurriedly put her down, touching her head again, saying: "Siyan, Wang Erge will take you to see the lanterns?" After finishing, he picked up Sheng Siyan once more and sat her on his shoulders, asking Wang Shi: "Wang Dama, can I take Siyan to see the lanterns?"

  "Go on, go on, don't go too far. She's afraid of the dark..."

  Wang Ergou: "......" Alright, it turns out that the little blind girl who just regained her sight is most afraid of darkness. Indeed, she's not ordinary! Got it!

  Sheng Siyan sat casually on Wang Ergou's shoulder, looking around with a smile on her face like a small flower. Although she was beautiful, she didn't have an intimidating aura, and at first glance, people couldn't help but feel pity for her. Even when speaking to her, they unconsciously softened their tone, afraid of scaring her.

  Wang Erge led Sheng Siyan forward, guiding her along the way.

  "That beautiful lamp over there was sent by the neighboring village. I think it's too crude and doesn't look like a beauty at all. But these people have never seen what a real beauty is, so it's no wonder they think that way."

  "The crab lamp next to the beauty lamp is not bad, do you want to eat crabs? In the past, Wang Danni said that your eye disease cannot eat seafood, and all seafood are seafood, unfortunately, none of them can be eaten. Now that your eyes are better, can you eat them now? Wait until May, when Wang Erge takes you crabbing..."

  Two people chatted all the way, and before they knew it, a group of half-sized boys and girls had followed them.

  Wang Erge has always been the leader of the children in Wangjiacun Village.

  Sheng Siyan knew this when she was still a blind girl, but it wasn't until she really saw it that she understood what a grand occasion it was!

  It is better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of an ox!

  Even if it's being the leader of a group of village kids, it's better than going to the capital city to be a servant for officials and nobles...

  Sheng Siyan sighed in her heart and couldn't help but touch Wang Erge's head. - He's really a good kid.

  Wang Ergou felt a bit awkward, but didn't know where the awkwardness came from. He thought maybe Sheng Siyan was tired and said: "Siyan, there's a food stall over there, let's go get a bowl of stir-fried river noodles?"

  Wang never allowed Sheng Siyan to eat outside.

  It used to be because she was a blind girl, worried that she couldn't see and ate something she shouldn't eat.

  But now she can see with her eyes, shouldn't it be alright?

  Sheng Siyan saw the village children staring at her with eager eyes, and not wanting to disappoint everyone, she nodded and said: "I've never had stir-fried river noodles. Wang Ergou, are stir-fried river noodles delicious?"

  "Delicious! Delicious! Extremely delicious!" Wang Erge was overjoyed, put her down, pulled her hand to the stall selling stir-fried rice noodles and said: "Xin Dama, two bowls of stir-fried rice noodles, one with chili peppers and one without."

  Wow! There's actually chili here!

  Sheng Siyan's eyes widened and her mouth began to water at the sight of the spicy dish.

  For five years, Wang had never given her anything spicy to eat, so she automatically assumed that there were no chili peppers here yet. She was still thinking about where to find chili pepper seeds when her eyes got better, and then secretly pick them up and plant them to sell for money. Then open a small restaurant, earn the first bucket of gold, and from then on, reach the pinnacle of life, defeat the white rich beauty, marry the high rich handsome man, and become the winner of life!

  But here's already got chili, how broken?!

  Tears! This is not what we agreed on!

  Wang Ergou placed two bowls of stir-fried river noodles in front of Sheng Siyan, but saw that Sheng Siyan was staring blankly ahead with a dazed expression, lost in thought.

  "Have some river noodles, this bowl isn't spicy..." Wang Ergou placed the non-spicy bowl in front of Sheng Siyan.

  Sheng Siyan snapped back to reality, almost "ferociously" staring at the bowl of spicy stir-fried river noodles, reached out to grab it, took a pair of chopsticks and vigorously poked at it, and began eating with a huff.

  "Hey, slow down, don't gnash your teeth like that, do you have a grudge against it? - This is very spicy, can you handle spice?" Wang Ergou looked at Sheng Siyan with great helplessness as she devoured the bowl of spicy stir-fried rice noodles with big mouthfuls, as if she had a deep-seated hatred for the noodles.

  Sheng Siyan was eating spicy stir-fried river noodles while inwardly despising her own unreliability: "Sheng Siyan, you good-for-nothing, originally a city-born and bred kid from your past life, yet you dare to want to get rich by farming in ancient times? Don't you even know how to write the character for 'heaven'? And you still want to open a small restaurant?"

  Crash! You were clearly only capable of cooking instant noodles, boiling sausages and adding a few slices of raw vegetables in your past life, okay?! With such skills, you still dare to dream of becoming a great chef?!

  Your three-legged cat's culinary skills are so bad that only your hedgehog Ah Cai and Wang Ergou from next door would deign to eat a bite!

  This is unrealistic and overly ambitious, are you kidding me?

  He will review his own thoughts and quietly open the list of "how to make a lot of money in ancient times" in his mind, and put a big cross after the first item "planting chili peppers and opening a small restaurant".

  But she didn't give up.

  Don't worry! She still has many good ideas, if one path doesn't work, she'll change to another, I believe she can finally stand at the peak of the Great Xia Dynasty, defeat the white rich beauty, marry a high rich handsome man, and become a winner in life!

  The more brain supplements are happy, the more colorful Sheng Siyan's face is.

  In the eyes of the village children, she thought it was extremely delicious and made them drool!

  "I want it! I also want it!"

  The village children couldn't help but use their own pocket money to buy a bowl of stir-fried river noodles and eat them in big mouthfuls.

  Xin Daigne has been selling river noodles for half her life and has never sold as many as she did today.

  The bosses of the rice noodle stalls next to her were so envious that their eyes were straight, and they all said: "Xin Dama, why is business so good today?"

  Xin Daniang smiled and said, "Thanks to this little girl, look at her eating so deliciously, it's making everyone jealous!" Then she asked Wang Ergou, "Ergou, is this your family relative?"

  Wang Erge smiled and said: "Xin Danni, don't you recognize her? She is Wang Danni's daughter, Siyan!"

  "What? Is she Sheng Siyan? Isn't Sheng Siyan blind?" Xin Daigniang was shocked, and hastily bent down to carefully examine Sheng Siyan who was eating with her head down.

  Sheng Siyan raised her head, giving her a sweet smile. Her small mouth, shaped like a flower petal, had become even redder after eating the spicy dish. She said: "Xin Dama, I've heard of you! But this is the first time we meet... you know why..."

  "Really Shu Yan?! Your eyes are healed?!" Xin Daignang was both shocked and delighted, and hurriedly scooped another bowl of sweet and spicy small fish noodles for Shu Yan, saying: "The spicy river noodles are too hot, you eat another bowl of cool noodles, washed with well water, not icy. --- This is a gift from me to you, no charge."

  "Thank you, Aunt Xin." Sheng Siyan said cleverly, bringing over the bowl of small fish and cooling powder, scooping out more than half into another bowl and placing it beside Wang Ergou, saying: "Wang Ergou, you eat. I can't finish that much."

  Wang Ergou smiled and thanked him, then swept away the remaining spicy river noodles and small fish cool noodles that Sheng Siyan had left behind.

  The people in Wangjia Village are very familiar with both Wang Danni and Sheng Siyan.

  At this time, it was heard that Wang Dainiang had cured Sheng Siyan's eye disease, and everyone gathered around to see her, praising Wang Dainiang's medical skills as being exceptionally brilliant.

  In the village, there were several men who loved to gamble, and they would bet on anything. They even gambled on whether Wang Dainiang could cure her daughter Sheng Siyan's eye disease that she had since birth.

  This time, the little girl stood in front of everyone with her bright and sparkling eyes. Those who were defeated by the queen of gamblers naturally conceded defeat, happily took out money to treat everyone to wine, and made a lively scene.

  The old village chief of Wangjia Village also came to see Sheng Siyan, smiling and saying: "Siyan is really a lucky little girl. Her eyes are just fine, and our Great Xia Dynasty will have another happy event soon!"
