Not a god

Chapter 90: Ordinary Chen Xi (18.2.3)
During the past few days at my hometown, I slept until I woke up naturally every day. In the village, there were the sounds of chickens, geese, dogs, and firecrackers early in the morning.

The house is very noisy. Either there are quarrels or there are too many uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters. They all stand there and chat about their own things, which will make your ears sore.

Chen De and Chen Hongying pulled Chen Xi and said that he must have something hidden, and asked him to show off his skills.

Chen Xi was very annoyed, and said, "Okay, okay, show me your skills and bring me two sacks."

Chen Hongying saw it and quickly called out, "Second uncle, younger uncle, and aunt Chen De, come out quickly, Chen Xi is going to perform!"

A large group of people came out carrying stools and sat in a row at the door to see what the second brother was going to perform.

Chen Xi: “…”

He held the sack, glanced at the dog in the yard, and moved the sack. Hey, no one saw what he did, and the dog was in the sack!

There was thunderous applause in the yard, and people cheered and said "good thing".

"yeah?!"

"That's awesome, second brother!"

“This is what you get out of a prestigious university!”

Lao Chen’s family members are all good at providing emotional value.

Chen Hongying was dissatisfied: "What kind of skill is that? What use is it? Are you going to steal dogs from the next village?"

Chen Xi waved his hand and gave her a sack.

"It's dark and spicy?!"

"Why can't you pull it apart?"

"No, no, please lend a hand."

Chen Hongying performed the banana New Year greeting show for everyone. She pulled the sack in the yard for a long time, but for some reason she couldn't pull it down.

Seeing that she was about to leave the yard, Chen Xi put away the sack.

He held the sack in his hand and spread his hands: "Nowadays, the Tianming people are just some tricks like juggling, not as magical as they are on the Internet."

After all, there are only a few people like Su Jiuer who have powerful fighting power as soon as they awaken their destiny.

Even without awakening her destiny, Su Jiuer's physical fitness was at the top level among athletes, and she had been practicing martial arts since she was a child.

What's more, Chen Xi had seen her ancestral sword, which was a king-level evil-fate object that was truly passed down from her ancestors.

After all, there are still too few people who have awakened their destiny. Currently, the number of people with destiny in Jiangcheng is less than one thousandth.

Chen Xi looked at Chen Hongying, wondering whether he should let Wanwan awaken her destiny.

Wanwan said that her hometown has been sparsely populated for thousands of years, and there is no resentment on this land, so the corresponding dreamland is very safe.

But awakening to destiny will provide more protection.

The internet was bustling with activity, and Chen Xi's New Year celebrations were also lively. Every day he visited relatives, went to the flower market, took his grandparents to see a doctor, played with the dog and took the kids for a walk. In the evening, he went to the woods with Wanwan to revisit the old place and reminisce about his childhood.

Chen Yi has been very energetic these days. She wakes up at dawn every day, gets up, goes to the end of the bed to get her little clothes, and then goes to wake Chen Xi up. After Chen Xi changes her clothes, she goes to the stove to ask her grandmother to light the fire.

"Grandma, grandma!"

"Yiyi is here again! Are you cold, dear?"

Her grandmother held her in her arms and sat in front of the stove, lighting a fire to keep her warm.

I don’t know what’s wrong with this kid, he likes watching fire so much.

"Huohuo, grandma, Huohuo."

She sat in her grandmother's arms, with her hands raised high and her little mouth turned far away.

"Yiyi is so smart, just as smart as your dad when he was a kid!"

Once you praise her, she will stop talking and look at you with a round face, as if she wants to see how you praise her.

The grandmother was amused by her little appearance and kissed her little face gently.

The baby has not cried for so many days. He is only one year old, but can run and talk. He really looks a bit like Chen Xi when he was a child. The whole family suspected that he was Chen Xi's biological child.

Sometimes the little guy would shout some strange words excitedly at the fire, and the grandmother couldn't understand. Look, it started again, little Yiyi sat on her lap, stretched out her hand to the fire, her eyes sparkling: "Live in the Year of Angry Fire...Live in the Year of Angry Fire!"

The grandmother went to ask the second brother, and the second brother also said that he didn't know what she said, but Wanwan next to him kept laughing.

I have to visit relatives these days.

Before the Chinese New Year, my aunts bought a bunch of fruits and biscuits to take to visit relatives. As a result, after a few days, the number of gifts piled up at home not only did not decrease, but increased several times.

There has been a constant stream of people coming to pay New Year's greetings to the old man in the past few days, but Chen Xi has no impression of many of these relatives at all.

Chen Xi remembered that when he was a child, not many people came to visit his grandfather during the Chinese New Year.

Now, the old man’s sons are all successful and can earn a lot of money. All his grandchildren have been admitted to college, and the eldest grandson was even admitted to Tianfu University. What is Tianfu University?
In the eyes of all Yizhou people, it was a prestigious university. There were a total of four college students in the village, all of whom were from Chen Weimin's family.

I heard that his eldest grandson could go to Peking University or Tsinghua University, but he didn't want to go... Just listen to it, the old man likes to brag.

In fact, whether you have a promising future or not is not the most important thing. In the countryside, as long as your family is prosperous, others will come over and smile to show their goodwill.

Today, a cousin who Chen Xi had no impression of came.

That cousin has a son, who is about the third year of junior high school, named Chen Dagui. In terms of seniority, he is Chen Xi's cousin, and their relationship is actually somewhat distant, but they are from the same clan.

My cousin is at the age when he is overly self-conscious. He dresses very fashionably, and his clothes are a little out of place with the rural atmosphere. He wears a Nike with an inverted Nike hook, a Nike down jacket, and a Nike hat. Anyway, he wears a lot of hooks.

Chen Dagui actually doesn’t want to go back to his hometown this year.

Now there are so many people who want to come to Jiangcheng but can't. But his father said that he has been busy outside for so many years and has not been back home. This year he finally has some free time and he must go back to his hometown.

Chen Dagui said he wanted to stay in Jiangcheng, but his father didn't understand anything and scolded him for playing games and not doing his job properly. He threatened to cut off his living expenses if he didn't go back.

He actually threatened him with living expenses. His dad was so despicable. And no matter what he said, no matter what the current situation was, he just wouldn't listen, saying that he was just a little kid and didn't know anything.

Humph, when he awakens to his destiny, he will go kill a few evil corpses, sell the evil souls and make tens of thousands of dollars. How can he be interested in the twelve thousand yuan a month living expenses given by his family?

He just wanted to get back to Jiangcheng as soon as possible. He was already very impatient of being dragged to visit relatives.

"Dagui, this is your fourth uncle, call someone."

"Hello, Fourth Uncle."

Although he was impatient in his heart, he must not show it. This is the quality that a future strong man should have.

The old man smiled and nodded: "Okay."

My uncle asked, "Isn't the people's will and opinion not there?"

"The brothers said the weather was good, so they went to the mountains. They are old now... Chen Xi is your third uncle, you have met him when you were a child."

The so-called third uncle is not Chen Xi’s biological third uncle, but this cousin is the third in their family. In rural areas, all uncles are like this.

Chen Xi called out "Uncle San" with a smile, and then continued to play with his phone nearby.

The old man said: "Chen Xi is also studying at a university in Jiangcheng, you two are young and should communicate more with each other."

Hearing that Chen Xi was also studying at a university in Jiangcheng, Chen Dagui became a little concerned and glanced at Chen Xi.

He was wearing a flowered cotton jacket and wide cotton trousers. He looked tall, but he was plain at first glance and unrecognizable in the crowd at second glance.

I don't know why, but I always feel like I can't remember what it looks like. It's a bit weird.

Just when he thought he could not remember the face, the cousin suddenly looked at him and smiled at him. Then for some reason, he suddenly felt a little more impressed. How come the appearance that he thought was ordinary just now became more and more handsome the more he looked at it... Bah, Chen Dagui, what are you thinking about!

Xiao Shuai is on par with him. After all, they are related by blood. Chen Dagui acknowledges this cousin.

But how can a university graduate be born in this rural area? He guessed that he could only go to a junior college. In the countryside, if someone could pass the junior college entrance examination, he would be considered a literary star descending to earth.

Hearing that it was Jiang Cheng who had also returned, he wanted to chat with his cousin about fate, asking him if he had ever played it, whether he knew any awakened friends, or whether he himself had awakened.

But I feel that asking is a waste of words. If I really awaken to my destiny, I will definitely not come back.

Just when he thought the countryside was boring and was about to take out his mobile phone to read some online novels, a person came out of the room.

"Brother, Chen Hongying asked you to go to the fifth row. Hey, another relative is coming..."
