Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 856 - 853: The Blessings and Troubles of Happiness
In the morning, everyone sat together for breakfast.
"Ah nom nom..."
Tang Tang was eating a beef patty, probably because it was so delicious, her little mouth was making smacking sounds, and she even added sound effects for herself.
"You shouldn’t eat like that."
Sitting next to her, Taozi pulled out a napkin and wiped her mouth.
"Han~"
Tang Tang gave her a silly smile, completely clueless about what she was saying.
So Taozi looked toward Shen Siyuan.
"What’s up?" Shen Siyuan asked, puzzled.
"Aren’t you going to say something to her? If she continues like this, others will say she’s poorly raised." Taozi said helplessly.
For things like these, only they could teach Tang Tang, since Mao Sanmei was both deaf and mute, she couldn’t teach her daughter, and being from a poor background herself, she wasn’t taught these things either.
"No worries, in the future people will just say she’s natural." Shen Siyuan said with a righteous expression.
Ruan Hongzhuang burst out laughing beside them.
"I know you spoil her, but don’t overdo it, or you’ll spoil her rotten." Ruan Hongzhuang said.
"Exactly, that’s what I mean, love and spoiling are not the same." Taozi quickly added.
"You don’t understand." Shen Siyuan said.
Ruan Hongzhuang: →_→
Taozi: →_→
"You talk as if you really understand, how many have you had, are you very experienced?" Ruan Hongzhuang retorted.
"Ruan Ruan is right." Taozi quickly chimed in.
Tang Tang couldn’t hear what everyone was saying, so she continued making her "ah nom nom" sounds, smacking her lips and curiously looking at everyone.
Mao Sanmei likewise couldn’t hear, but she didn’t care at all, her attention was fully on her daughter.
Though she had been with her daughter for some time and was very familiar with Tang Tang, no matter how much she looked at her, she couldn’t get enough; she found her endlessly adorable.
"If you don’t say, how can we understand?" Ruan Hongzhuang said, dissatisfied.
"Ruan Ruan is right." Taozi once again agreed.
Shen Siyuan and Ruan Hongzhuang turned to look at her.
Taozi asked somewhat sheepishly, "Did I say something wrong?"
Shen Siyuan and Ruan Hongzhuang exchanged smiles, and seeing this, Taozi stabbed her chopsticks angrily; she really disliked this feeling, it made her feel stupid.
"Tang Tang is a very special child, it’s best not to suppress her nature, just let things be." Shen Siyuan said.
Hearing this, Taozi muttered discontentedly, "All parents think their child is the most special, my parents thought the same way too."
"Perhaps, but Tang Tang truly is that special one, isn’t she?" Shen Siyuan asked with a smile.
"Alright."
At this point, Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi had to admit it.
Just then, a doorbell suddenly rang.
"So early, who is it? Did Sister Mao order takeout?" Ruan Hongzhuang was about to get up.
Shen Siyuan said, "Let me go, you all continue eating."
It turned out that while Shen Siyuan was talking with them, he didn’t miss a beat in eating; the pile of food in front of him had been quietly finished.
"When did he eat it all?"
Taozi was still puzzled, while Shen Siyuan was already heading to the door.
Tang Tang saw Shen Siyuan leaving the table and immediately wanted to slide down from her chair.
But Mao Sanmei caught her in one swift motion.
She was still holding onto her patty, with an oily little mouth.
But she didn’t care about that, pointing towards Shen Siyuan instead.
"Oh~, gone."
Mao Sanmei couldn’t hear what she said, but Shen Siyuan, who was heading to the door, did hear it. He turned back and beckoned to her.
Mao Sanmei saw that and finally let Tang Tang go.
The little one immediately darted towards Shen Siyuan but because she ran too fast, she bumped her head against Shen Siyuan’s butt, leaving a very noticeable oil stain on his white pants that looked like a smiling face.
Ruan Hongzhuang and Taozi couldn’t stop laughing, while Mao Sanmei stood up in a bit of panic.
As for Tang Tang, she greatly appreciated her "work."
"Han~"
She didn’t feel any guilt or fear for doing something wrong, she even stretched her neck wanting to do it again, but Shen Siyuan pushed her little head away.
"Tsk~"
The little one clicked her tongue, then bit the patty with her mouth, put her hands on her hips, and stomped her foot...
Shen Siyuan: ...
"You only learn the bad things from Dou Dou."
"Han~"
The little one lifted her chin, full of pride.
"Go wipe your face, it’s shining with oil." Shen Siyuan said with a bit of amusement.
By this point, the doorbell was still ringing incessantly, and Shen Siyuan stopped paying attention to Tang Tang as he quickly walked to the door. He glanced through the door camera and saw it was Song Meixian and Zhong Xiaonan, so early in the morning...
Nonetheless, Shen Siyuan opened the door for them.
"Who is it?" Taozi turned her head and curiously asked.
"Song Meixian and them," Shen Siyuan casually replied.
Taozi turned back and exchanged a knowing glance with Ruan Hongzhuang; they both knew what this was about.
They had previously discussed that the Special Affairs Bureau sent two beautiful women to interact with Shen Siyuan, surely intending to use beauty schemes.
Otherwise, in such a big country, could they find no other suitable person?
Besides, Shen Siyuan was clearly not a proper gentleman; he had many tricks up his sleeve.
Whether he genuinely had no interest in them, or he wasn’t in a hurry to eat the meat on his plate was unclear.
But regardless of the situation, they didn’t want to see it happen; they didn’t want another sister.
They allowed each other’s presence, and that was their biggest concession. If another one were to appear, then in the future, there might be two, three, or even countless more.
With Shen Siyuan’s ability, it wasn’t impossible at all.
Not only that, but they also didn’t want to just be a beautiful view on Shen Siyuan’s path, glanced at, appreciated, then departed from and forgotten...
So they were eager to enhance their cultivation, to keep up with Shen Siyuan’s pace, rather than just looking up at him and watching him drift further away.
Therefore, for the two of them, meeting Shen Siyuan was their greatest blessing and their biggest misfortune.
So even though they appeared happy, they did have their worries.
At this moment, Shen Siyuan opened the door and already let Song Meixian and Zhong Xiaonan in.
They were carrying some things in their hands.
"Knowing that you lack nothing, no gift would be appropriate, so we just picked up a few things." Song Meixian said with a smile.
Zhong Xiaonan, hearing that, quickly offered the items she was holding to Shen Siyuan.
Indeed, they weren’t anything significant, just some specialties from Xiajing.
These items were already somewhere in the house, given by Lin Libo and his wife.
The taste was just so-so; Shen Siyuan wasn’t too fond of it, but Tang Tang loved it, she really did.
Therefore, when Zhong Xiaonan extended the gifts, Shen Siyuan hadn’t even reached out before Tang Tang, with a silly grin, was already reaching to receive them.
Song Meixian, a bit embarrassed, covered her face in the back. How could this be? They weren’t expensive things; wouldn’t it be better to just set them aside? Zhong Xiaonan didn’t have a clue about interpersonal matters.
But Shen Siyuan didn’t say anything about it, instead, he asked concernedly, "How do you feel? Is there any discomfort?"
After all, Zhong Xiaonan might not be the first person in this world to "eat" people, but she was definitely the first to improve her strength through "eating" people.
Shen Siyuan was naturally curious to see if her body’s reactions differed from the demonic cultivators in the Jiuyou Demon Lord’s memories who devoured others’ blood.
