Chapter 69: Chapter 69: Ancestor, A Small Fry

Jiangli, with Shuaishuai in tow, followed Xia Xin into the kitchen.

But now, the kitchen was different from before, and Jiangli couldn’t be of much help; in fact, she just seemed to add to the confusion.

Seeing Xia Xin turn on the gas stove, she couldn’t help asking, “What is this?”

“This is… a gas stove, similar to the old stove, but it’s been upgraded!” Xia Xin replied.

Jiangli pointed to the rice cooker beside her, “And what is this white, chubby thing?”

Xia Xin replied with a hint of resignation, “That’s not a chubby thing…”

...

“Is it a drum?” Jiangli blinked.

“No, it’s called a rice cooker, used for cooking rice. Nowadays, people cook rice and stir-fry in separate pots,” Xia Xin sighed.

Jiangli touched her chin in a moment of realization and then pointed to a cabinet nearby, “And what is this? What’s a wardrobe doing here?”

“That’s not a wardrobe, it’s a fridge, used for storing food so it doesn’t spoil easily…”

Xia Xin was getting a bit exasperated.

Jiangli acknowledged with an “oh.”

Before Jiangli could speak again, Xia Xin couldn’t help but raise his hand to signal her to stop, “Hold on, hold on, hold on, ancestor, if you keep this up, when will I ever finish cooking?”

Jiangli swallowed the words she was about to say, “But, I am just bored and I don’t understand any of these…”

“You know, if you’re bored, you could play a mobile game or something!” Xia Xin said, his face the picture of suffering, really not in the mood for childcare.

Jiangli blinked, “Where is the mobile game? I can’t handle it.”

Xia Xin said, “…take it out, I’ll teach you.”

Jiangli made a sound of understanding and obediently took out her phone.

Xia Xin downloaded a simple game called LinkLink for her, then handed it back, “Here, this game is the easiest. It’s about matching identical items, which you can eliminate if they can be connected in three or fewer steps. Ancestor, as a beginner, this is the most convenient game for you to start with!”

Jiangli glanced at the rather fancy game screen and immediately perked up, “Really? Then I’ll give it a try.”

Xia Xin hurriedly handed her the phone with a gesture of invitation, “Ancestor, please enjoy, don’t be shy!”

Jiangli’s attention was now focused on the phone; she waved him off. In the next second, she hooked her finger and a small stool flew over.

Jiangli sat down at the kitchen entrance, leaning against the doorframe and started playing.

Seeing her play, Shuaishuai’s desire for the game made him forget his fear of Jiangli, and he immediately ran behind her to watch her play.

Seeing this, Xia Xin felt like crying.

Look at this, what a harmonious scene… No need to babysit, how wonderful.

If he had known earlier, he would have found a mobile game for Jiangli to play with sooner.

Xia Xin sighed, feeling quite clever, and hurriedly went back to cooking.

However…

This peaceful scene did not last long.

Jiangli’s voice began to rise and fall intermittently throughout the kitchen.

“No… no, this is clearly three lines, why can’t they connect?!”

“Hey, what’s happening, why is the screen black?”

“Xia Xin, Xia Xin, come and see, is my phone broken? It’s not responding!”

Xia Xin, who was cooking, felt like a salty fish that had lost its dreams, completely lackluster.

After a moment of silence, he sighed heavily and resignedly made his way over.

“Ancestor, that’s not how you play the game. Can you use your hands to show me—does this look like three lines? This is clearly five lines!”

“Also, ancestor, this game has a limit on retries per round, which is like the game’s life. Once there are no more matches, it will refresh once, like losing a life! When all lives are lost, it can’t refresh anymore, and you’ll have to start a new round!”
