Mother took Shu Kui's hand and took her to add a small horizontal to the word.

"Neel, remember." My father spoke, "I'm going to school in two days, and if my husband sees you writing your name like that, I'm afraid he'll come and ask me when I changed my surname." ”

Hearing this, both mother and Shu Kui laughed.

The father put down the book and came over to touch Shu Kui's head: "Good Nier, in another year or two, your mother will take care of your body, and let her add a younger brother or sister to you." ”

"Brother or sister?" Shu Kui heard his immature voice.

"Do you want a brother or a sister?" Father glanced at mother.

"Hello sister, I can help her with pigtails." Shu Kui thought about it and couldn't make up his mind, "It's okay for my brother, I'll take him to play horseback riding and fight." ”

"Okay, all right, then have a sister and another brother." The father put his arm around the mother's shoulder.

His mother smiled at him and said nothing.

After that, Shu Kui went out of the study and came to the courtyard.

Here, there are common flowers and plants, and there is nothing particularly outstanding, but the two peach trees, with their branches full of pink flowers, attract several bees to fly among the flowers.

Shu Kui's mind was buzzing - this place, she had been here before.

Bowed his head, and sure enough, he was wearing a costume of honor.

She ran to the well in the corner of the yard, looked in, and saw the face of a child, who was only six or seven years old, reflected in the water.

"Ouch, miss, don't play there, danger!" A maid came running up to her and pulled her away.

"Who am I? Where am I? Who are you? Shu Kui knew that this maid was called Xiu'er, but he didn't understand where the memory in his brain came from.

Xiu'er thought she was joking: "You are our young lady, you are at home, I am Xiu'er, okay?" ”

"What's my name?" This is something that Shu Kui can't remember anyway.

Xiu'er's eyes widened: "Miss, don't play anymore." ”

"What's my name?" Shu Kui asked again, unable to laugh at all.

Xiu'er's face changed, and she was about to say something, but was interrupted by a loud call.

"Miss, I still have a lot of things to do, don't make fun of me, I'm going to school the day after tomorrow, don't dare to mess around anymore." After Xiu'er finished speaking, she left in a hurry.

Shu Kui walked around the whole house, which was both very familiar and quite unfamiliar.

When the servants saw her, they all smiled and greeted her, and they seemed to be very fond of her.

In the end, Shu Kui avoided everyone and carefully combed all the qiqi in his mind in a secluded place in the courtyard.

She lives in a big city in Shengze Country, her father's name is Gu Qinghe, she has no talent for cultivation, and she is a well-known businessman. When he buys and sells, he will never charge an extra cent, but he must not bargain or give credit, if anyone is in an emergency at home, he will support, but not in vain, but must pay back or pay with work. Because of this style of work, over time, he got the nickname of "Golden Operator" in the business circle.

Shu Kui once heard his father say that the price he offered was very realistic, and once it was discounted, he would lose money.

And about the money for support must be returned, my father's explanation is that the emergency is not to help the poor, the Gu family's silver is not blown by the wind, it is accumulated by getting up early and doing business in the dark, if you don't have to pay it back, it's good to meet someone who knows how to be grateful, and if you meet someone who doesn't know each other, maybe they will treat you as a backer, and reach out again and again, if you don't give it, in the eyes of these people, it's still yours, and you will inevitably be said something like being rich and unkind.

Thinking about it, Shu Kui's thoughts turned to his mother again.

Her mother's name is Bai Hui, she was born in a warlock family, she is knowledgeable, but unfortunately her talent is not high, she has been practicing for a long time, and she can only use some elementary spells, and after marrying her father, she will no longer practice and concentrate on teaching her husband and children at home.

Shu Kui is an only daughter, and it is said that when she was born, Bai Hui had a difficult birth and almost lost her life, and her vitality has been greatly damaged since then.

When Shu Kui grew to the age of two, Bai Hui felt that she was almost recovered, and she really wanted to add a few more children to the Gu family, but Gu Qinghe refused, for fear that his wife would make another mistake.

The combination of Gu Qinghe and Bai Hui, although it is the order of their parents and the words of the matchmaker, but a few years after marriage, the two are like-minded and very affectionate, plus their daughter is cute and smart, and the family is happy and very happy.

Shu Kui grew up in such a happy well-off family, and usually followed his mother to learn words, practice small spells, and have been living a carefree life.

This year, she is six years old, and not long ago, her father found a private school for her, and agreed to go to school the day after tomorrow.

"Miss, so you're here." Xiu'er's voice made Shu Kui come back to his senses, "It's time to eat." ”

At the dinner table, Shu Kui was a little unhappy, pouting, and looked at his father from time to time.

Of course, Gu Qinghe noticed her daughter's abnormality, smiled, and said, "Nier, Dad will bring you delicious food." ”

"Don't." Shu Kui was angry.

"Then bring a doll, okay?" Gu Qinghe was still smiling.

"Don't." Shu Kui simply put down his chopsticks.

"Nier, be obedient, Daddy will be back soon." Bai Hui deliberately straightened her face.

"Every time you say that, every time Daddy comes back for months." Shu Kui was not afraid, "I've only been back for a few days this time, and I'm leaving again, I don't want it, I want my father to stay." ”

"Nier, dad asked you, when did Uncle Ma come back?" Gu Qinghe is very patient with her daughter.

"Yesterday." Shu Kui knew that Uncle Ma was the bookkeeper and his father's right-hand man.

"That's right." Gu Qinghe sandwiched her favorite dish for her daughter, "Actually, Dad should have been back yesterday, but Dad handed over a lot of things to Uncle Ma to do, in order to come back early and accompany you more." So, you are obedient, you are at home with your mother, go to school well, and your father promises that you will come back early this time, okay? ”

Shu Kui was silent, very reluctant.

"Yes, good, as long as Dad is free, he will definitely come back to accompany you." Bai Hui echoed.

Shu Kui knew very well that his tantrum could not change anything, so he had to pick up chopsticks and continue to eat listlessly.

Next, Shu Kui's life was calm and uneventful.

My father often goes out to run business, and my mother is always at home, being a female celebrity and practicing calligraphy.

Shu Kui went to school as agreed, in addition to learning the Four Books and Five Classics, etc., he also learned spells.

She was like a fish in water in private school, and the talent she showed surprised him.

Time flies silently, and in the blink of an eye, a year has passed.

Shu Kui is completely accustomed to today's life, she enjoys the favor of her parents, the praise of her teachers, the envy of her classmates, and even, she has gradually forgotten her original identity, and she is about to become a real "Nier".

Occasionally, she would think of Ao Lingyang, Ling Jiuchuan and Rong Shu, and Shu Di and her parents in the world, but their images would always be fleeting in her mind, and they would be replaced by the faces of Gu Qinghe and Bai Hui in an instant.

After a while, she felt that this was the place where she was supposed to live, and this was home.

Full of happiness, she was reluctant to look back on what happened before she came here, didn't want to think about how long such days would last, and didn't want to think about how to leave.

Finally, one night, a vision struck.

Shu Kui was in his sleep, as if he was in an ice cave, and he felt chills for a while.

Not long after, she saw a snow like swan's feathers, dancing wildly in the howling north wind.

Yes, she's the giant plant again.

This time, the cold came faster and more violently than the last time, grabbing her throat and making it difficult for her to breathe.

She was not afraid, nor did she want to struggle, she only thought compassionately, let my death be exchanged for a lifetime of life under my feet, let my blood melt this heavy snow, irrigate rice crops, turn into streams and lakes, and give birth to more life.

At this moment, her heart was quiet and peaceful, and she had put her stiff limbs out of the way.

The cold was spreading to his body, not fast but extremely firm, Shu Kui tried his best to get rid of a distracting thought and died peacefully.

Suddenly, there was a faint sound of "popping" in the chest, and then the warmth rose up dotted with stars, burning all over the chest like wildfire, burning cold and stagnant, with a slight sense of retreat.

But soon, the cold found that the warmth was fierce but lacked stamina, so it had a tendency to raise its head again.

Shu Kui's body has become a battlefield, the cold and warm currents are fighting for territory,-for-tat, no one is willing to give in, so that Shu Kui is cold and hot, his limbs are bruised when he is cold, and sweat is like rain when he is hot.

After a long stalemate, Shu Kui has become very weak and almost faints.

At this moment, the warm current erupted, like the sun, emitting ten thousand rays of light.

Shu Kui's heart pounded, and she felt the temperature of her blood getting higher and higher, which quickly dispelled the cold while also making her feel like she was in boiling water.

The pain ensued, intensifying, tearing, burning.

Just when Shu Kui couldn't bear it, suddenly, she opened her eyes.

At his feet, Gu Qinghe lay face down on the ground.

"Daddy?" Shu Kui called softly, and had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Gu Qinghe didn't react and didn't move.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Shu Kui unconsciously shed tears.

"Girl, your father has gone." A gruff voice rang in my ears.

Shu Kui was startled, raised his head, and was hitting the bloodshot eyes of the medicine ghost.

"My dad...... Where did it go? Shu Kui still has a glimmer of hope.

"Of course I went to the underworld." The medicine ghost laughed and looked her up and down.

Shu Kui was extremely disgusted by this ill-intentioned look, and turned his head away, but just happened to see his mother coming out of the room.

Bai Hui was dressed in plain clothes, her cheeks were flushed, and she just stared at her feet.

"Mother." Shu Kui called her.

Bai Hui didn't seem to hear it, and went straight to the medicine ghost without squinting.

The medicine ghost hugged her and said to Shu Kui: "Girl, from now on, I will be your new father." ”

Shu Kui glared at him hatefully, squatted down, and with great effort, he reluctantly turned Gu Qinghe into the side lying position.

At this time, Gu Qinghe's eyes were wide open, his entire eyes were covered with a layer of gray, and his face was swollen and lifeless.

Shu Kui was so frightened that he couldn't help screaming.
